LRB Scavvies

Scavvies are the very dregs of humanity, though they are so devolved and twisted that they can hardly be considered human any more. They are severly deformed and often mutated by the toxic environment they live in. Scavvies dress in rags and are caked in the most indescribable foulness. Their skin is a yellow and disgusting mass of sores, warts, blisters and cracks. Their limbs are often so withered or shrivelled that crude hooks and peg legs are a common sight, though any Scavvy too crippled to defend himself is easy prey for his fellows.
