Killer Folk

The Killer Folk were a posthuman species that evolved from the Human Predators.

The evolution of sapience went hand in hand with the reduction of the thumb claws and saber teeth of the predators, which are still present, but smaller and more fragile. Regardless, the Killer Folk still had predatory urges, which showed in their religions.

Their religions almost always centered around the art of hunting and war, with frequent orgies of violence and sex being part of their lifestyles. The best hunters and warriors were seen as nobility, and nomadic warriors gathered annually to hunt their lifestock, domesticated from their former human prey.

In an industrial revolution, one nation-pack of Killer Folk developed factory farming, rganized state structure, secularism and new technologies, and the entire population got divided into progressive factory herders and conservative hunting states. This almost led to world wars more than once, but the Killer Folk managed to survive and unite again.

With this history, the world of the Killer folk has more buried dark ages, ruined cultures and fallen kingdoms than any other world.
