Beastfolk

Often referred to as "Beastfolk" or "Beasties", chimeras are humans who've shifted into an animal form. Transformation happens when a child is put through a severely traumatic experience. As fear and adrenaline take over, an ancient power within the body comes forth, changing the child into a chimera. There is no cure to reverse this transformation. However, the new body heightens the senses and strengthens the body, allowing one to perform feats not previously possible. With society's stigma on chimeras, they find difficulty to fit with the rest of mankind and instead head down the path of crime to make a living using their enhanced abilities.

Chimeras possess an exclusive trait allowing then the ability to consume a "God Fruit", a rare ancient type of fruit found in the surreal Mountain King. A God fruit grants its recipient unreal powers, and as such leads to hang fights over possession of these rare fruits. A God fruit is the ultimate weapon.
