Evolution
Parahumans were biologically engineered through genetic splicing; a process where selected DNA from humans and animals have been combined. At first, these modifications were subtle enhancements. In medicine, scientists were looking for single genes that provided immunity against specific disesases. Then, when the techniques were improved, armies of soldiers were developed with increased strength and stamina. Traits involving obedience and loyalty were cultivated. For a time, vast numbers of different types of parahumans were engineered for a variety of purposes. For the most part these beings were infirtile, and many of these new branches on the tree of evolution died out. Those that were able to reproduce, crossbred over millenia to produce the more homogenized race called warks.
