Some Unliving tribes also call them wrrnteg (a stub) or tochorra (a tadpole). When a lachto crawls out of the vat, there is no reason to celebrate. But when a yello crawls out of the tank, the other Unliving are downright terrified. The deformed remains of these creatures represent the terminal stage of an advanced genetic degeneration. The vast majority of yellos do not last longer than a few days. Even if they manage to survive the critical beginnings, only a sad unlife full of contempt and shame awaits them. In the past, yellos used to be immediately killed just like retardos. Nowadays, yellos are protected by strict laws but that does not prevent their relatives from banishing them promptly from the community. That might be the reason why yellos form the largest group among the beggars of C'Ora and Min'Ora.

Yellos suffer from numerous illnesses but their serious disability manifests mainly in their external morphology. During the maturing process in the reproduction vats, their bodies are splintered and often mutilated into grotesque forms. There are known cases where flocks of begging yellos included individuals who were nothing more than siamese arms with toothless mouth or a single eye between two shoulders.

In the central city, there are several sheltered workshops that offer yellos elementary conditions for a dignified existence. At the same time, there are also illegal collection agencies using yellos as an additive to meat and bone agricultural fodder. So, for any yello, an offer of foreign assistance is always a dangerous lottery.
