Nuclear Lads

Nuclear lads are broken, mutated lads. So broken, in fact, that they are not given Lad-o-files. These things have no control of their mind or body. Encounters with these, "beasts," have provided evidence that they are far stronger, and more dangerous than normal lads. Many fear that they may someday take over Carlosland. Even Carlos fears this future.

No one knows how they ended up this way, but some believe that lads from long ago picked up little pieces of radiation from the North American nuclear disaster, or that they were nucleotized whenever the nuclear element was first discovered.

There is a terrifying number of these swarming the Ancient Chasm, which is why no one has ventured there before. And the theorists believe that cats and dogs retreated underground through this passageway before the first nuclear lads were formed.
