>>5415702The Flesh Gnawers were no less afflicted by starvation than their peers but where most struggled to survive, they were already adapted for a bleak environment of starvation punctuated by rare feasts of carrion. All the famine did was demand a return to form and the Flesh Gnawers rose to the occasion in hideous splendour, growing two additional limbs for mobility and releasing more eggs into the waves per reproduction cycle than ever before. By increased stability and weight of numbers, they were able to thrive on the dead and where there were none, overwhelm the living. The Flesh Gnawer population has grown and if they don’t diversify their diet, they could prove a severe threat to ecological recovery.
