Creature:Hewey

Hewies: Agressive, stupid, and weak. Not a good combination for animals who pick a fight with anyone who strays off the beaten path. Originally gathering in one large group, the group split in two when a few babies who strayed from their hunting mothers got chased home by the neighboring clan of Mitosi. The group attacked, but the children ended up dying, alongside over 2/3 of the Hewey fighters. The two groups, now that the enemies were deada and consumed, couldn't figure out who killed their brethren. The co-leaders, Puta and Tafusa, blamed each other's hunters and warriors, so Tafusa and his group moved to the other end of the world. Puta and Tafusa spend their time plotting the assasination of one another, but they are never set into motion because they are distracted easily by things like hunger or the crash of a wave. They continue to hold a grudge, however.

In general, Hewies can be summed up as small, dumb, green balls of hate. They love hunting, fighting, and the thought of their enemies dying. One recent development in their intelligence is that the group will send one of their warriors to pick a fight with one of their neighbors. The other tribe will follow the offending creature home, where that tribe will be slaughtered by the Hewies. Originally, able-bodied Hewies would go to an enemy tribe, kill everything in sight, and then fight over who got the meat. This development prevents the starvation of wounded hunters and children back home, another thing that caused a drop in population. Hewies do not reproduce often, only when they think of it, which is near never.

Over time, Hewies evolved into the carnivorous beings they are today, but for a long while they were omnivores. The meat they tend to eat nowadays is typically rotten and fly-covered, but it doesn't stop them. They also show signs of cannibalistic tendencies, such as consuming fallen warriors after battle.
