History
Origin[]
Yeren, also known and Chinese Yetis to Westerners, are fur-covered humanoid ape-like creatures originating from China.[1]
History[]
Many years ago, an unnamed servant of Zheng Zu came across the carcass of a Yeren in China, which he presented to his master. From the Yeren's DNA the servant created the Yeren Root, which consumed would transform the user into a Yeren. Impressed, Zu dubbed the servant King Wild Man and helped him establish a business in New York City's Chinatown to traffic the Root. Many of King Wild Man's crew, including himself, were composed of human-yeren hybrids due to their consumption of the Root.[1]Powers and Abilities
