While searching for super fast mutants, the Achilles project worked

with roadrunners as a possible genetic source. It worked in that it gave the resulting genetic specimen incredible speed, but they had no "super" powers. Therefore, only were only a few made.

One of the amazing powers of the specimens was their ability to mate

with almost any species with the same reproductive system as a human.

Like the other mutant animals, though, since the coming of the rifts they have manifested some unusual powers. Unlike most of the others, the roadrunner‘s love to venture beyond their home in the Achilles Republic. They most frequently wonder the world in search of adventure and love. They are the modern day ladies man despite there mutant appearance they are quite beautiful to most people.

They were originaly developed to be the genetic equivelent to the juicers/crazies but without the draw backs of insanity and a short life span.

The roadrunner was chose because of its great speed agility and it was a triumph in that area and they were almost human enough to make them more easy to work into a normal military unit. Even though all this was a plus they did not work out do to thier more powerful bird counter parts.

There appearance is that of a humanoid with small feathers covering the body, they have a human upper body (beside the feathers) and human hands with short claws, there legs are humanoid down to the knee where there legs are bird like they have three huge claws (avg. 4 inches) and there heads are small with a long thin beak. They have no wings.
