This was created by Melchromes_Mule. I am just putting the information here because she was awsome and came up with it. I do not claim making it in any sort, it was all her doing.

Mankind always knew extinction was afoot. It didn't take them by surprise when the world they knew was falling in on itself as the decades pass, how technology and advancement took the backseat and morale decay overtook. However, the fate that was waiting to accept fell upon something... different. They lurked in the allies as the world tumbled into disrepair, feeding on one of the many decaying citizens, and it wasn't only the vampires who were preying on oblivious mankind. Every species imaginable came out freely during these years, and relished in the ample opportunity to feed freely without consequence, Hell, it came to the point a human spotted them and then turned back to their own business-no one cared. The bodies filled the sidewalk and even carelessly tossed in the road and people kept on, awaiting their ultimate end. During these decades of feasting, something changed.
It started with the vampires, some begun to rot and fall, others changed. Everyone followed suit soon after. Rot from the inside, and those who survived endured such changes it deformed what they were, humanity soon called it "The Evolution", and it was nothing short of it. The Lycans stopped transforming, they gained a solely human body, they're fur and they're extra bones dissipated, but they became stronger, smarter, and faster. All packs dispersed, no longer needing one another's company, something driving them apart from another. No longer they were calling werewolves, lycans, no more.
Humanity named them Illithid. Smart they were, but as they're body changed, they're diet as well. They went for humanity still, but the more they devoured, the more an Illithid would gain knowledge. Some say they weren't at all related to the Lycans, but something entirely different, but DNA differed. Distant cousins of they're once brethren. However, this wasn't nearly as dangerous as what became of the vampires...
They changed, but they changed for the worse. Scientists point at the amount of blood they're ancestors digested from other species, they say it was a cause of pollution, but all agree no matter the source, the outcome was something to reckon with. They called them Ghouls. They had full rows of canine teeth, claws, faster, stronger-oh, more than stronger-, smarter, deadlier. Ghouls were alike they're cousin Illithid, but their small claws and skinny teeth was no match towards the Ghoul's superiority. However, blood was no longer the Ghoul's method of sustaining them-entire bodies were necessary. Feasting on bone, meat, nerve endings, offal, nothing remained expect the very blood they once drank, and no longer bond to the night-the sun losing its effect.
Alarmed at their new foes, humanity recuperated. Within thirty years, P.O.E was established Paranormal Office of the Evolution. Rather than go to the war with the foes, P.O.E offered them service. They first roped in the Illithids, who agreed to their curfews, rules, and limits to their power in return for nutrients, and currently work as intelligence for the organization. P.O.E hoped to take back their once citizens who fell to the "disease" (as they called the Ghouls and Illithids), and offer non-cannibalistic means of food. Within the decades they made treaties with other species, such as the Pox (nocturnal, almost animalistic humans who lurk in the dark to feed, they are quick, weaker than the rest of their cousins, and possess large, red eyes that serve in infra-red, distant cousins of the Ghouls), and many others.
However, at P.O.E 100th anniversary, it comes to their attention that the Ghouls refuse time and time again to join them and peace to occur between man and the Disease. This is when they took more tactical methods. Humanity had fully recuperated, technology boomed, people were honorable again-Ghouls were lingering to the past of decay and lost. Aware that warfare would shatter humanity's morale and they would face defeat, they trained their detectives then to converse with the Ghouls, taking up their best men and women and releasing them towards the enemies. Trained with self defense against the creatures, but trained in patience as well, they began. Information flooded in then, and the source of the Ghoul's refusal was discovered: they are in packs, and the leader had yet to decease. His whereabouts listed by those Ghouls tired of his rule; they knew who to speak with then.
Project Treaty has been active for five years, seeming the pack leader is hostile and stubborn, and defensive. Many appointed detectives give up the case with scars to enforce they're decisions. P.O.E's superior's then decided to give this project one last try before using force, and then she was sent out. Educated in the Ghoul's tactics, genetics, and cultural she is believed to be ready for the mission.
Now the clocks start. She has one year before the war starts.

Well, the bacteria is all humans almost, it just takes that human to eat human meat for it to be activated. Also, transferring any type of bodily fluid (except sweat, tears, and saliva) can turn you, but some are not 100% effective, like having sex might turn you, but since a lot of the bacteria isn't in the reproductive organs, it won't do much, but any kind of blood or tissue will turn you. Also, encase you want to like include some of her knowledge in your post here's some facts: Ghouls has stages in which they become a full fledged Ghoul and it depends how they are turned: blood transfusion, birth, or bacteria. Bacteria: Ingesting human meat and the person having the Ghoul bacteria (not everyone has it, only some), they will begin to vomit, convulse, has seizures, laugh uncontrollably, loose control of their bowels, and pass out. Within 24 hours, they become Pre-Ghoul. Pre-Ghouls are no longer human, but not close to Ghoul. They are lethargic, unresponsive, and harmless. It takes 12 days before Ghoul stage 1 occurs, and which they are the complete opposite of Pre-Ghoul, they are animalistic, fast, and their bodies deform. They normally bend over and walk run on all fours, using their knuckles, they're claws are always out (Ghouls have retractable claws at their finger tips, which are hollow), and completely unreasonable and untamable. They eat, that's all they do. However, Ghoul stage 1 (Usually called GS1) is not normally released onto the streets since the pack keeps those under control and close by to other members, and fed regularly, but these "teenagers" (they're young compared to the rest) are twice as hungry as Ghouls and it's indicated that a pack has a new member when more begin to disappear. Ghouls don't allow much young in their packs because of their maintenance, and a GS1 stays at stage one for 20 years, in which that time they mature, transform back to being human-looking and their hunger dies just slightly, but they're rashial and stable. All Ghouls during The Evolution was through bacteria and were Pre-Ghoul and GS1 (sometimes a Ghoul is called GS2, and a Pre-Ghoul called GS0 in scencefitic-ness xD.) Birth: As the Ghoul's packs increased, it became apparent female Ghouls were fertile, but human females could be used for such methods, but human females normally face the fate of being eaten from within by the unborn. Ghoul babies are physically different from a normal baby; they're larger, they're fatter, they're born with teeth and retracted claws, and blind. However, they grow rapidly. Rather than drink milk, they begin to eat meat within 24 hours, and double their weight and length in a month. At that time they can see and crawl, but usually besides the mother, who when pregnant and caring for the child runs on adrenaline and P.O.E detectives are advised to not get close because such women are twice a threat as normal and been known to attack the pack leader or fellow members-especially first time mothers. However, a baby Ghoul only stays an infant for five years, in which that time they are considered "teenagers" and stand at full height. Ghoul children do not go through GS0 or GS1, they immediately are full fledged Ghouls from birth. However, despite physically maturing extremely quickly, they are not mentally matured until in their 20's and kept on a short chain by the pack. Blood Transfusion: If a Ghoul wants a human to be their life long partner, or a human accidentally is exposed to the blood and it gains entrance, the human will become a Ghoul. However, they do not suffer from GS0 or GS1, but rather they fall into a coma the moment the blood mixes with the rest. During this time, there is a biological warfare, where white blood cells fight against the intruders, but will fall victim immediately on contact, become the virus, and attach itself onto others to spread through all the body. Ghouls do not suffer from illnesses so white blood cells are useless. Not all humans survive this shock, however, and die within the coma. Those who pass this move onto their body's organ's purposes changed. Ghouls absorb every ounce of use from what they eat and do not excrete any waste, they're own intestine losing importance along with kidneys, bladder, and other organs in charge of waste. It is shown that these organs physically change and become smaller as the a Ghoul's generation goes on, and soon will be removed through evolution. At this point, the body adapts to wanting raw meat, and the poisoned cells become hyperactive, constantly reforming themselves. This process from human to Ghoul takes six months, and few manage through it all. Once awake, they are extremely hungry and dangerous to they're own creator, but if fed enough (within the first time, they need twice the amount a usual Ghoul feasts), the bond begins. A Ghoul created by another Ghoul forms an abnormally tight bond, the two inseparable, and since Ghoul pack leaders are chosen by a sense in genes, if that Ghoul who turned the other (only pack leaders have the privilege, really) their creation will become alpha female (or second alpha male since Ghouls don't care who ******** who as long as the pack leader produces children as well), and the two rule the pack. A Ghoul can have an alpha female or second alpha male without creating another, however. ***** The Illithid's and Pox are on the P.O.E's side, they're already recruited, but the Ghouls refuse and causing a problem for them to recruit the rest since the Ghouls influenced the others. The Illithid are the only ones that work for them, though. They're usually sectaries or assistant, they're not given much rank in P.O.E despite working for them for 100 out of the 160 years it has been around
