According to what he learned from the Deity as Cole, most Man-Eaters could be classified by their habitat. Places with certain conditions tended to attract specific breeds or species. For instance, extremely high-temperature terrains birthed Man-Eaters with tough skin and, at times, fire-based abilities.
The danger level of a Man-Eater was easily determined by the environment; conversely, the hazard level of an environment could be determined by how advanced the Man-Eater's structure was. At least, that was the best Rolan understood it.
