When the inhabitants of MemeFi stormed the shores of the Isle of the Damned under the banners of their united clans during the Second Furious War, many refused to participate. Gathering in Vice City's square under the banner of the white rabbits, they declared their rejection of the ongoing conflict, only to be expelled from the square by their own kinsmen flying the flag of the High Council of Memelords.

As usual, new recruits were sorted into classes according to their intellect and magical abilities. The least bright charged ahead to overwhelm the endless hordes of Demons guarding their masters, while the smarter memes were spared the dirty work to avoid fueling dissatisfaction.

But even these memes were insufficient. The memelords beseeched Shibarius for aid, and he swiftly conjured a solution— magically cloning the most exemplary stupid Warrior. Hundreds of thousands of these Warriors, called Degens, were created. During Operation Tet they assaulted the isle with an ocean of fire, but the Demons withstood the onslaught, cutting down 90% of the degens. News of the operation's failure sparked such indignation that the memlords relented, though by then the Demons acked the strength to resist.

From then on the Degens lived amongst the common memes, driven by greed.
