‘Barren,’ a post-apocalyptic worldbuilding project by Keegan Francis, imagines an alternate history where civilization ended in nuclear conflict, and mutated animal life rapidly evolves to rule over the irradiated wastes left behind.
A retro-future that calls to mind the worldbuilding of the Fallout series, the project reveals a world where human survivors must contend with biological horrors created by their own folly. So, for this entry into the archive, we’ll travel across the wastes, creating a ‘survival guide’ of sorts to the creatures that roam this desolate world.
Now, let’s cross into an alternate timeline, and witness the broken world of Barren…

I just want to point out RE: Zadgers, their precursor, the badger, is NOT a harmless animal, they can be vicious little bastards
i mean theyre aggressive but not really dangerous

@@thegreygoblin5165 that's the one... I get all the "once good, now crap" developers mixed up
Yep haha
There really needs to be a mutated house cat that stalks the forests and fields of the UK in Barren. It would be fitting since people in the UK in real life claim to see large wild cats :)
It'd be even more amusing, if they evolve into Felis Sapiens.
It would be MORE fitting because cats in the UK are the single most responsible invasive species responsible for the extinction of 98% of native life.
The UK is ecologically dead, and outdoor cats are ILLIGAL and kill on sight because of this.
Over a thousand species of birds and small mammals entirely gone from the country.
Over a billion birds and another billion small mammals, "nobody has studied reptiles yet" are killed by cats in the US every single year.
They also recently have exploded with STDs and a few sexually transmitted genetic illnesses like cancer. Yes, cancer spread through sex.
Canada is facing similar problems near urban areas.
Since domestic cats kill for fun far more then for food, and they don't only target rats and pests.
Infact they prefer birds over any other prey.
Anyway, a massive mutant domestic house cat eating everything and killing for fun fits perfectly.
Because they already do.
@@NetMoverSitan just a regular cat that can speak with a british accent
Imma add that idea to my book haha, I love it :)
We have wildcats in Scotland.
Dang, now I want a survival horror game setting in Barren! At least the upcoming Fallout London mod will somewhat quench that thirst for a radioactive GB.
Nice pfp
Nah a game always dimishes the setting
Metro and stalker may help you. But also I'd prefer barren to be made more like metro due to how hostile the world is.
That would be so cool
Haha that would be a dream come true,
In meantime may develop a world to be played in DND + info and a book
I can't help but laugh at the mental idea there's just some random reptile or crustacean that hasn't changed at all. Like a crocodile or a horseshoe crab that's just exactly the same.
Well, if it ain't broke...
It’ll be the horseshoe crab lol
Crocodiles and sharks have kept the same body shape for millions of years so it could be plausible 🗿
lmao
As an american, it's strange to hear badgers called "harmless"
Especially when they're so closely related to Wolverines.
Oh, British badgers aren’t harmless, they’re vicious bastards who will often try to attack and bite people. They won’t kill you, but they’ll fuck your shins up and give you horrible infections
They're not harmless at all, they do keep to themselves but can be real mean like any other
As someone on Tumblr once said, “a badger is what happens when evolution wants a crocodile, but all it has to work with is a weasel.”
Europeanen baggers can still fuck you up with their strong tunneling claws but no where near as dangerous american honey baggers
“The harmless badger” I know you already addressed this problem, but I have to say even large cats are afraid of it. I gotta say though I like this world building project is amazing.
Yeah, I laughed at that phrase too. Badgers are anything but harmless, and a good basis for a radioactive monstrosity.
@@David_Fellner honey badgers throw hands with god. European badgers make you tea and cookies and ask about your day.

"Yet the green landscapes of old have been replaced by a grim wasteland of silent decay"
Wow, things must gotten *really* bad *after* the nukes
Dunno you ever been to Doncaster
Or the singularity of human misery known as... Slough...
@@JudgeNicodemus 🤮 Slough
yeah tbh "a grim wasteland of silent decay" already accurately describes a lot of britain
You have entered cumbria
It’d be really cool to see you cover Dogs of the Spires. It’s basically post-apocalyptic fantasy with quite a bit of spec-evo and cosmic horror sorta stuff in the later books
Edit: I think you can get the series in some bookstores but you can probably find it online. Not normally a fan of xenofiction but the worldbuilding was more than enough to get me interested
Where can I learn more about Dogs of the Spire. I searched it on UA-cam and only got furry amvs
@@im.not.typical91 ua-cam.com/video/pmk3to8cZwg/v-deo.html
I assume this is the one. It's definitely post-apocalyptic.
@@im.not.typical91 I am also wondering
cosmic horror? you have me interested.
Interesting concept, though wouldn’t it be more likely that these mutated animals would simply be referred to as their predecessors? For example, I think it would be far more likely that “bone-hens” would just be called “chickens” by the inhabitants of this alternate reality, considering that these are all recognized animals that would have mutated in such a short timeframe; within what could essentially be one person’s lifetime.
That's a good point, but I think it happening quickly makes it more likely they'd change the name bc people would be aware of the "classic" chicken still to compare it to. When you introduce a new thing quickly, people will invent new terms to describe it and this is different than the slower version of language change which is usually sound changes or the gradual shifting of lexical meanings, e.t.c. In English people don't pronounce the k or gh in 'knight' bc of slow gradual changes in pronunciation, and they use it to mean a mounted warrior (or a special title bestowed by royalty that is descended from this mounted warrior tradition) when its literal meaning in pre-Germanic is something like "boy" or "servant." Of course the chicken of today is genetically and visually different than the ones in the past (if only size and breed) even when people use the exact same word, but I would argue this happens specifically bc the change is so gradual and hard to notice - sometimes language changes slowly even if everything's the same, and sometimes things change and the language doesn't. But that's over long periods of time.
In contrast we began using the word "smart phone" almost right away after they were introduced. BUT on the other hand, many nowadays call it just a phone, except to distinguish it from other types of phones (which still exist). So it could be both or they'll use the old word. But i still think it happening fast makes it more likely they'd produce a new term, not less likely.
Probably because the post-apocalyptic people still remember the old world. Probably the names of the new animals was given in the first years after the nukes explodes, because survivors want distinguish them from the actual chickens or cows. And after generations the names remains
@@friend_trilobot That is something to consider. Well said.
Language can change rapidly.
Look at all those chickens!
Whilst I do appreciate a post-apocalyptic reimagining of my country, I feel like I may have been spoilt by the many _many MANY_ speculative biology projects you've covered on this awesome channel. Barren feels a little generic, if I'm being brutally honest.
I think part of the problem is that the creators of Barren have gone for the standard apocalypse-induced desertification landscape, and it shows. The rot-and-decay aesthetic they've picked out for the animals doesn't do them any favours either, but they'd _feel_ less generic set against a lush landscape rich with autotrophic life.
It wouldn't even need to be plants, really. You could have the landscape become dominated by exclusively radiotrophic fungi, and it'd feel less generic.
I get that, was a great video but not fully accurate as barren is far less focused on just speculative biology
And the landscape in parts will be far greener and less simple decay as I want barren to show life can go on
I’d say the video is more Curious archives interpretation to an extent
Appreciate the actual constructive criticism tho :)
@@KfrancisArt It's all a matter of preference, really.
I prefer completely different alien worlds with there evolved creatures and plants
@@KfrancisArt I honestly appreciate how grungy and “grounded” this aesthetic is in the current market. I think “bright and vibrant alien/post-apocalyptic/alt-biology world” is getting a little oversaturated, and I always prefer a healthy balance of options. You've also found a lot of animals to nine that Fallout hasn't, and done so in pretty creative ways!
This kind of a setting can do wonders for world building with a bit of mythology. Imagine common dog breeds like german sheperds or labs turning into giant black furred wolflike monsters. Now you have packs of Black Schucks running around. How many English towns and villages have legends of those demonic black hounds haunting the countryside?
My boy, you have... the GRIM!! 🔮
well, shucks
literally
Man, this is a really dark project, but it is really good!
I agree
Thanks I appreciate that
Sometimes dark helps to pump the gas, ya know?
The feeling I get when hearing about this world is interesting; despite all the horrific monsters, desolation, and struggle, I like that humanity continued to exist, as if to spite the wastelands they inhabit. I'd set out some table scraps for the 'Dillos, some eggs for the Bonehens, and I'm just sitting on my front porch, cleaning a shotgun and basking in the silence of a dead world...
we really are the most stubborn species to exist
not really, most of us Englishmen don't own porches, rather we would sit in an armchair in our front room, polishing our pipe-launcher and drinking a mug of New-Yorkshire tea.
Nice to see this kind of post-apocalypse fiction that actually puts some thought into the effect that environment would have on life, instead of just making radioactive monsters out to get people. Thank you for sharing!
It makes no sense they have radiation burns, etc. The background radiation level would be pretty low at this point. The animals would grow up healthy and normal looking, just with weird features and designs that came out of their mutations. This is one very unrealistic thing that annoys me both about fallout and other post apocalyptic worlds. After a few decades and especially centuries the post-apocalyptic world would be be lush and green, just very different in terms of types of life and with hidden dangers (like irradiated zones that could quickly kill a normal human but look almost the same as non-irradiated zones). Look at the area around Chernobyl.
True. Radioactive mutations are a fun way to explain fantastical animals, but it's tricky to use that to justify realism.
@@Corndog_Enthusiast It's just someone's opinion. There's no need to get upset.
I found not much foundation for this claim that most of the Radioactivity would decline so fast. Experts only say that there are Nukes that produce very low amounts of fallout, but this dont means that they would be used mostly for nuclear warfare, cuz it would be to less of a treath.
@@Corndog_Enthusiast Well people are criticizing it after those standards because this channel is usually about plausibly realistic spec evo.
@@hedgehog3180 codex inversus and rust and humus
:30 I mean Godzilla is *literally* Japan’s way of dealing with the trauma of dropping two nuclear bombs on them. So much art from Japanese citizens has a motif of the sheer horror of nuclear devestation.
Yeah Godzilla's thick hide was inspired by keloid scars.
So... in Japanese media the radiation creates monsters and in western media it creates heroes?
You need to look at an old ps2 game called Scaler. I love it for the detailed environments. There's even a plant on one level mimicking a big scary predator.
This project looks really promising, and I sincerely hope that the creator will receive lots of support through his Patreon so that he can continue creating it. I, however am nothing but a Rotfowl, and just like them live by scavenging, thus sadly not being able to support.
Same. Just remember we play an important role in ecosystem. :)
Funny. Thou art a Rotfowl. That meant thou canst rid the project of decaying plot lines, like how Rotfowl feed on decaying bodies.
Bruh lol
I had an idea for a story like this set in a post apocalyptic Britain, more specifically the Mercia region.
Areas are run like castles, ruled by lords and false kings.
Factions like chavs and The Knights of The realm, even Viking factions controlling towns located near York
But I couldn’t figure out what kind of animals
Maybe focus on what caused this departure from the standard timeline?
That sounds promising.
Use barren as inspiration, or fallout.
Honestly I would love to see your project it sounds interesting.
Bizzare medievel painting of animals for inspiration
@@lotguballa7839 i know a guy who is making a game about this.
The way he pronounced Yorkshire took 20 years off my life.
Haha seems lots of people say it that way for some reason
Isn't that how its pronounced?
@@personman2346 they say it as 'yorksheer'
@@personman2346 Nope. We pronounce it as "sheer" or sometimes "shur" (depends where in the UK someone's from, I guess). Place names with "shire" at the end are never pronounced "shy-er" here, and the only times we'd pronounce that word like that is when talking of the shire horse breed or shire counties.
Shire=Lotr
I'm actually surprised Biophage wasn't involved in phage treatment. It'd make sense given their name, logo, supposed medical ties, and could provide an explanation as to how nukrosis came about.
Tbf it seems pretty obvious that that's gonna be the big reveal, it's just being kept purposefully vague right now.
Technically ankle biters exist now.
Hello sir I was hoping you could check a game called Rain World. It is set in a world where a super advanced race of ancients have all died out, leaving behind all their structures to be reclaimed by nature. Much time has passed, and the ancients were masters of genetic tech. The purposed animals they created to perform various tasks roam the world and have evolved to the new environment, but the are also many bio-mechanical creatures still around from the time of the ancients, leading to many unique animals. I think you would find it quite interesting
you've been served :)
Badgers have long, sharp claws, sharp teeth, and a vicious demeanor. Those critters are anything but harmless, they may be small but they can still screw you up.
"Farmers raise bulwarks on the fertile fields of an area called New York-SHIRE"....I'm pretty sure the locals don't call it that!
This is definitely the biggest “what if” I’ve seen on this channel, so far.
An alternate history where amphibians became the dominant life form? Might’ve been plausible.
An alien planet that has skyscraper sized titans, being taken down by hostile living needles that launch themselves out of the dirt? Sure.
An alternate history where intense radiation exposure just speeds up evolution, rather than causing all life it touches to begin to rot before it dies? That’s a bit of a stretch, not gonna lie.
I mean, the skyscraper titans is straight up the the settings for xeno blade games
I dislike the stereotypical postapocalyptic wasteland filled with highly aggressive and active predators "because of mutation". The postapocalyptic biosphere will more resemble a tundra. Most animals will be herbivores grazing mosses and lichen, while predators tend to be small and nimble like cats and foxes. However, most carnivores will simply be scavengers instead, because the caloric expenditure for hunting is way too high in a nutrition-poor world. Majority of the animals will be burrowers and only go out to the radioactive atmosphere for getting food. The environment is simply too hostile for large caloric-intensive animals like cattle.
Whatever "mutated" humans that are banished by the survivors will likely not attack humans at all, because being an intelligent species, they fully understand the danger of attacking humans with firearm. They will likely be cave-dwelling hunter-gatherers and develop some sort of unique artisanship that will produce them tradable goods to exchange medicine or food with humans.
I wouldn't be so sure. Chernobyl, which is the only example we have of a radioactive ecosystem, is quite lush and supports populations of deer, wolves, and bears. Nagasaki and Hiroshima, our primary examples of the effects of nuclear war, are still inhabited and by all accounts no worse off environmentally then any other city.
Basically, apocalypse-induced desertification has no evidence for its existence.
@@nataliebell6760 I think OP is talking about a world under a full nuclear winter
@@nataliebell6760 Because Chernobly was abandoned by humans and has minimal human activity. That is the primary reason why Chernobly became an almost lush place compared to neighboring environments. The area was abandoned to prevent any radiation-induced sickness, not because it was certain mutation-death.
Yeah, animals probably died from radiation poisoning but the damage was nothing compared to what normal human civilization has on the ecosphere.
@@zack-ronald259 assuming sure but nuclear winter is purely a theory and a heavily debatable one at that.
You should do some writing 🙂
Or at least be hired by some group of writers 😊
with the "fashion" of the apocalyptic end as in "walking dead" that here makes us glimpse, for me it is quite terrifying. 3:52 the Bulwark (ex-cow) looks a lot like the Reek from Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. or rather a hybrid between a dicynodon and a ceratopside (a placecias and a monoclonius)
In a nuclear fallout scenario, I’d be most like likely that in that following years that Cancer, Mange, and Necrosis would be the most prominent problems, along with viruses, and maybe a slight chance of mutations, but it would probably lead to Cancer
Cancer is itself caused by mutations.
This project reminded me of a story I was working on. It’s about a man who has to go to a military stronghold without getting himself killed by aliens, cannibals, and highly evolved versions of modern animals. It’s pretty much like a post apocalyptic adventure story, but it takes place in the same setting as “the future is wild” or “after man: a zoology of the future”.
Wow what a bad story, I hate it a lot
Why so?
Nuke + Dracula = Nukula
How has no one thought of this before now?
because noone has made nuclear vampires before
@@thomasfoster4370 I know, but Nukula just sounds like nucular if said with the right accent. I mean, it’s right there.
@@thomasfoster4370 The Bloodsuckers from S.T.A.L.K.E.R come to mind
reminds me of the video game Metro 2033
it's one of my all time favorite games,together with Stalker,which is also a similar,(kinda) post apocalyptic game.
the former is based of a book (actually a series of books) and i highly recommend it to anybody who likes post apocalyptic stuff.
They’re both based off of books, but stalker also takes inspiration from the stalker movie. Always scratches the realism itch that fallout doesn’t
@@ASlickNamedPimpback yep,it's called roadside picnic.
The “dillo-pig” made me smile. Fun fact, Guinea pigs only have 2 babies at a time but they’re born eyes open and ready to run!

There are a few but they're all shit
I have a thing with friends that is post apocalyptic after a nuclear war and it's lush and bright with mutated insects and stuff
Imagine a fallout game set in Australia thousands of years in the future.
You are implied to be to the last human searching fruitlessly for signs of humanity after being woken up from the last functioning life pod in Australia.
One day you give up, only to find a fallout 4 mongrel alongside a pack of future dingoes running away from a giant lion-like cat descended from invasive cats. implying to you that colonization has happened somewhere else on the giant island.
@@StillStupidStillDumb2834 Any tropical regions will have the radioactive dust washed away very quickly due to monsoon rain. But hotspots in low lands where the dust accumulate can be expected. The abundant of sunlight and biomass also allows wildlife to quickly recover. I can imagine the southern American States like Louisiana will still have abundant life with little mutation on the land but the closer you move to the swamps where the dust is accumulated the more exotic animals are presented.
Great video, I hope there'll be more to come on this project.

Thank you so much for introducing me to this project I'm truly fascinated by the art and lore, I cant wait to see new additions and lore
Dude, I literally subscribed an hour ago and was watching your videos when this poped up.
Welcome! It's an epic channel
If there Is any can you cover some desert planets? Like One with Life only living at the poles? Would be cool
I love your videos I’m sure this one will be good too
I absolutely love these videos!! You make these stories so fascinating! keep up the great work
Many worldbuilders make the mistake of filling an ecosystem with apex predators and very few prey animals. As well too much attention is put on the fauna in worldbuilding projects, ¿what flora has survived?.
It would also be cool to dig into the culture of the people living there ¿what is their society like? ¿Has their language evolved?
Interesting project overall.
Another flaw I have seen here is the assumption that scales provide better protection than feathers especially in the setting of a post apocalyptic Britain where it's cold. If feathers don't provide an evolutionary advantage terrestrial birds wouldn't have them.
I like it better when these videos focus on more plausible scenarios
it's fkd up and really fascinating at the same time
Love your vids, you have such a calming voice
To witness the green landscapes of old Britain getting replaced by a grim wasteland of silent decay in real time, just drive from Exeter to Newcastle.
Here's what I want: an open-world survival simulator reminiscent of Ark: Survival Evolved, but the storyline is that your characters have access to inter-universal technology and can travel to different worlds in different universes. Infinite possibilities. Each map/DLC is a world from a different speculative evolution project like this.
An insect world? This will be intresting
The old film trim for the Old World was a great idea and good touch
was just watching another one of your vids, and then I see this
The giant grasshopper footage was rather hilarious.

You should cover Jay Eaton's Runaway to the Stars. It's sort of post apocalyptic, but humans are still surviving, just mostly not on Earth. It's really interesting and the Speculative Biology in it is really nicely done.
Man I love this video it just makes me want you to do the whole fallout series it covers most of the us and there are a lot of creatures in all nieches not just the super popular scary predator types I believe it does have a reasonable ecosystem even without all the human presence
I really wish there was some kind of “this is going to be super unsettling and creepy” warning because it’s night where I am and there’s no way in heck that I’m going to be able to fall asleep now.
This is so bad ass. Exactly what I wanted this channel to do.

The thing about nature is it will eventually find an equilibrium to prosper given few centuries or a millennia. None of these post-apocalyptic stories venture much farther than the point of collapse to show the new balance of nature.

And if I could suggest Curious Archive to look into the manga "Made in Abyss" by Akihito Tsukushi. It even has an anime, currently at season 2.
It would be thrilling to watch the Abyss, its curse, and its various flora and fauna discussed in this channel.
I've sometimes imagined what all the dogs, cats, and other critters I see would look like if they didn't have fur or feathers. This is very similar.
Amazing video as always! Do you think you will be able to make a video explaining the biology of the creatures of The Eternal Cylinder?
What I find interesting is a map we see briefly, as it looks like there was a major tectonic shift. Norway has been wedged into Scotland, the Jutland peninsula has gone, and what I think is Greenland appears to have moved to just west of Ireland.
"[the Bonehens] have changed much from their tame predecessors" I can tell from that statement you've never raised chickens. I'd argue that because they have visible dorsal spikes you'd know where the danger is coming from, which would be easier to deal with than our current chickens.
Very cool video, I'm wondering if, for example, there will be an analysis of the fauna of the Tabletop Game Degenesis? ma quite a large amount of post-apocalyptic fauna and maybe you will be interested in this as material for the video

Well this is a cheerful thumbnail and title
this was an awsome watch. pretty bone chilling with some of the man made experiments. I'm actually wondering how octopi and other cephelapods would have changed in this alternate timeline, especially since octopi can actively modify their own DNA (which is good for learning and survival, but makes passing new mutations down to offspring very difficult), and even more so because of how the babies look. I'd personally imagine that they'd become semi-amorphous monstrosities with the ability to rapidly transform their eight limbs as needs for a variety of tasks......and that their limbs can be torn off and become little monstrosities of their own, as each arm has a sort of pseudo-brain.
