Many, many years after humans have gone extinct, animals have evolved (and gained opposable thumbs, somehow) and become the dominant species, particularly felines and canines. The prey is still the same rodents and birds, albeit a bit larger.
They've roamed the cracked streets and explored the crumbling buildings for decades. Eventually, the Earth was restored to its natural state of balance, the plants growing back and the temperature going back to normal.
However, it's time for something to happen, it seems... There are eight creatures with odd talents, and nobody knows how or why they have them... Well, actually, nobody even knows they have them...
NOTE: Only one character with a Talent/Power per person. I am the exception because I am a terrible person.
See below for the 
species. It is not common, but it exists (in the roleplay, not IRL :P). It is believed to have evolved from Dobermans.
I have spent literally all day making this.
ALSO the species does not have to be those colors or markings, it's just an example. I will make my forms tomorrow~
