Editing Shadowrun (section)

== Flora and Fauna of the Sixth World ==

With the dawning of the Sixth World, the resurgence of magic has caused many plants, animals and even places and weather phenomena to develop previously unheard of powers and abilities, making them ¨awakened¨. Thus Komodo-dragons would mutate into basilisks, cats would gain shapeshifting abilities, national parks would become genius locii and hurricanes could develop rudimentary intelligence and sink ships or avoid the coasts in order to prolong their ¨life¨. There are also certain beings which were not mutated but ARE magic, most notably [[Dragons]]. Finally, the plethora of spirits and other astral entities could rightly be considered an addition to the natural world.

A number of these Critters can and are tamed and used for a variety of tasks, most often for security and combat as one might expect from crapsack setting that is Shadowrun. Naturally the corpos have used the high technology of the modern era to additionally augment some critters, turning them into so-called Warforms who by the 2070s are so sophisticated that they can take some basic bioware without losing essence, or just saying 'fuck essence, we got tech!' and turning them into over-cybered Biodrones. Finally, adding to the glorious insanity are Technocritters who can interface with the Matrix while simultaneously jazzing in the real world and may even consume stuff in the Matrix as a sustenance.

Below is a list of various Critters that a Shadowrunner may encounter on their bouts:
