Information

Abominations are created through the forced melding of living tissue via magical or technological means. Their appearance varies from each series of abominations and their subsequent generations. There is no singular design scheme for abominations, but you know it when you see one. They almost always appear as ugly combinations of various fleshy body parts with limited sensory organs. Abominations are usually created for a particular task or to perform a specific experiment. They are routinely granted only limited intelligence so as to keep them from developing further than planned.

Despite all efforts, abominations often find ways to escape captivity and start reproducing, even when they are not designed to do so. Because of this many realms outright outlaw or forbid the creation of experimental organisms altogether.

Behavior

Abominations can be found congregating in the sewers and alleys near research facilities and Mage’s Halls or perhaps guarding the tower of a deranged wizard. They seek out hidden spaces and crevices and come out only to feed. Little is known about their habits outside of captivity.

Abominations, by design, are usually capable of feeding on any sufficiently protein dense tissue and do not discriminate between plant and animal matter, actively foraging and hunting what is available, including trash, refuse and waste.

They have even been known to attack and consume mortal species and large animals when their combined mass exceeds their prey’s.
