ECOPIA
In the universe of Ecopia, humanity had evolved into two distinct branches: Homo Sapiens and Homo Bestia.
Over the past century, a genetic divergence split the population into two groups: Humans, who remain biologically unchanged, and Bestia, who developed distinct animal-like traits. These mutations vary widely—enhanced senses, physical adaptations, and other animal-linked features—leading to polarized views on whether these changes represent an evolutionary advantage or a disadvantage.
Dictionary
Ark
The orgins
Built atop the ruins of a pre-divergence megacity, Ark was deliberately reconstructed with only Humans in mind—gleaming white facades to reflect purity, elevated districts to reinforce literal hierarchy. Its foundations, however, are older bones: repurposed subway tunnels now house bestia quarters, and the marble plazas hide mass graves from the initial uprising that secured human dominance. Even its name is propaganda: "Ark," implying salvation, though only for the genetically unaligned.
HUMANS
The undisputed rulers of this world, Homo sapiens exist in stark contrast to the altered Homo bestia—genetically pure, politically dominant, and utterly unburdened by the mutations that define their counterparts.
They wield their power with cold precision, enforcing a rigid hierarchy where bestia are relegated to servitude. Domestic labor, hazardous industry work, and even sexual entertainment—bestia exist as tools, their animal traits fetishized, commodified, or outright exploited.
Propaganda saturates society, reinforcing Homo sapiens' superiority. Pornography featuring bestia is as normalized as advertisements, plastered across billboards and screens, reducing them to objects of fantasy.
Yet behind this veneer of control lies an unspoken tension—how long can a species remain on top when their entire system is built on the backs of those they despise?

MOONHILL
Moonhill: The Jewel of Metropolis Ark
Perched atop the highest plateaus overlooking the city, Moonhill is the crown of elite living—where the wealthiest Humans reside in gated grandeur, far removed from the common streets below. Moonhill is a meticulously sculpted paradise of white-washed mansions, infinity pools that bleed into the horizon, and manicured gardens so flawless they seem unreal.
Here, the bestia "help" are not merely servants—they are luxury accessories, handpicked for their pristine manners, aristocratic beauty, and obedience. Their collars are gold-plated, their silken uniforms tailored to their owners’ tastes. They glide through marble halls, servicing every whim without a whisper of protest—whether it’s pouring vintage wine, arranging illegal underground fights between rival households’ bestia guards, or warming their masters’ beds.Moonhill’s Unspoken Rules:
- Bestia never speak unless permitted.
- They are never seen unkempt—every claw is filed, every tail brushed to perfection.
- They exist as living status symbols—some bred specifically for rarity, others trained in obscure skills (a fox-type who can identify vintage wines by scent alone, a serpent-type who administers poison with precision).Of course, behind the gilded gates, darker transactions unfold: underground auctions for exotic bestia, private clubs where they are pitted against each other for sport, and hushed scandals where Human heirs gamble away their families’ prized Bestia on a drunken whim.
BESTIA
THE BESTIA
Human in form, animal in curse, property in practice.
What They Are:
Genetic accidents. Walking talking mash-ups of human DNA and animal traits—ears that twitch at every sound, tails that betray their emotions, pupils that slit or dilate under stress. Some have claws, others fangs, a few even sport patches of velvety fur along their spines. But make no mistake—they’re not full animals. Just broken humans with upgraded parts for your convenience.
What They Do:
Whatever the fuck owners tell them to.
- Household pets (if they’re cute enough).
- Bedwarmers (if they’re soft enough).
- Gladiators (if they’re vicious enough).
- Living trophies (if they’re rare enough—try finding an albino wolf-type on the black market).
What They’re Worth:
Depends on their breed, training, and damage. A rabbit-girl bred for docility? Cheap. A panther-type ex-military? That’ll cost you a penthouse. And if they’re damaged goods—missing an eye, scarred up, disobedient—congrats, you’re shopping in the bargain bin.
The Body Market:
Their animal traits dictate their price tags:
- Predator-types (wolves, big cats) = high-security muscle.
- Prey-types (rabbits, deer) = domestic comfort.
- Exotics (reptilian, avian) = collector’s items.
"Homo Bestia: A vital component of our civilized society. Properly managed, properly utilized—each one fulfilling their natural role for the betterment of Ark."- Department of Bestial Affairs
THE UNDERGROUND
Beneath Ark’s polished streets, The Devouring Hand thrives—an empire of flesh and suffering.They don’t just traffic bestia—they redefine cruelty.
Operations & Enterprises:
- The Silk Kennels: "High-end" brothels where broken bestia are leased by the hour. Clients pay extra to leave marks.
- The Red Circus: Fight pits where bestia tear each other apart for crowds that bet on how long their favorite mutt will scream.
- The Gilded Auction House: Where rare specimens, hybrids with unusual mutations—are sold to collectors.
- Tailor’s Alley: Backroom surgeons who "modify" bestia (dyed fur, removed vocal cords, implanted obedience chips).
Why Ark Turns a Blind Eye:
Because the Hand’s clients are Ark’s elite. Ministers, bankers, even DBA officials pay to play.The bestia here don’t die quickly. They die useful.

CLAWS
"Claws" – Where Teeth and Blood Decide Who's PreyThe stench of sweat, iron, and adrenaline hangs thick in the underground pit known as Claws, the most infamous bestia fighting ring in the underbelly of Ark.
A sunken concrete arena, stained with old blood, encircled by a rusted cage. The air vibrates with the roar of drunken Humans—merchants, crime lords, and thrill-seekers—throwing stacks of credits on the sand-covered floor, betting on which mutt will walk (or crawl) out alive.
The Fighters:
- Pit-Bred Bestia: Torn from Sanctum Fera or bred in black-market kennels, they're starved, scarred, and taught that killing is the only affection they'll know.
- Volunteers? Some desperate bestia enter willingly—winning means food, a night without chains. Losing means being butchered for parts.
- "Special Guests": Occasionally, a high-end human throws their personal bodyguard bestia into the pit for vanity or vengeance.The Rules (There Are None):
- No weapons. Just fangs, claws, and whatever brutality comes naturally.
- Fights end in death… unless the crowd gets bored and demands something more inventive.
- Survivors? Only if they're pretty enough to sell afterward.
The Entertainment:
Between matches, bookmakers take odds on "side games"—
- How many seconds will the rabbit-type last against the wolf?
- Will the feline's claws get ripped out before she quits screaming?
- Which fighter will the crowd vote to maim first?Claws isn’t just a business. It’s sport. It’s art. It’s Ark’s filthy little secret.And the best part? No one in power cares.
HYBRIDS
Homo Sapiens Puritas Laboratories: Where Evolution is PerfectedThe gleaming chrome corridors of Puritas Laboratories hum with sterile efficiency—the cutting-edge research arm of the Human elite, dedicated to unlocking the full potential (and marketability) of Bestia. Officially, they study genetic stabilization. Unofficially? They create horrors.
The Hybrid Initiative
Not content with natural-born bestia, Puritas engineers custom hybrids—designer mutations stitched together in petri dishes and artificial wombs.
Chimera-Type: Violent mash-ups of predator traits—wolf-lion bone density, serpent reflexes, raptor eyes. Built for war, sold to private militaries.
- Silk-Types: Delicate, doll-like blends of rabbit, deer, and human features—no survival instincts, just beauty. Favored by Moonhill collectors.
- Null-Types: Failed experiments whose mutations turned inward—no fur, no claws, just twitching limbs and a blood-curdling scream. Still useful for "stress-testing."
The Process
1. Harvesting: DNA is extracted from "donors" (bestia kidnapped from Claws or seized by DBA raids).
2. Gene-Splicing: Human embryos are infected with spliced animal traits in pressurized incubation pods.
3. Conditioning: Survivors are broken early—electric compliance training, hunger-bonding, pain-trust exercises—until they obey without hesitation.
The Failures
The labs’ basement "Recycling Wing" is a wet, whimpering grave.
- Unstable hybrids are dissolved in acid vats.
- Sentient enough to beg? Sold to Claws for "live testing."
- Too disturbing even for Puritas? Dumped in the Fera slums to spread terror.
The bestia call it "The White Hell." The scientists? "Innovation."
