Overlanders

Overlanders are slightly mutated, de-evolved decendants of Humans on Mobius. They were a by-product of the Xorda's Gene Bombs, which led to the mutation of the planet's inhabitants. They tend to be aggressive in nature and have strong feelings of xenophobia towards their Mobian counterparts.

Xorda Attack
Prior to becoming Mobius, the planet Earth's dominant species were the homo sapiens (aka humans). During Earth's 21st century, the scientist Ivan Kintobor provoked the alien species known as the Xorda by capturing their emissary and dissecting it. As a result, the Xorda bombarded the planet with Gene Bombs, which were supposed to wipe out the human race and maintain the rest of the planet's environment as it was at the time. However, the Gene Bombs instead de-evolved the human population, creating Overlanders.
