Legendless
Netherworld Overlord
You don't know why but every night no matter what you were doing, you black out. When you come to, you are now an animal. A cat, a dog, a bird, maybe even a ferret or a rat. Regardless of what you now are, you are no longer in your human body. Beside your human mind, you can feel the animal mind as well and feel their instincts. You are both yourself and the animal.
Each night it plays out like this no matter what you do. At one o' clock in the morning you become this animal, always somewhere in your city and each morning at five, you black out again only to awake hours (maybe minutes) later as a human once again.
This is not your choice.
You have no idea why this has been happening or how to stop it or even what could be possibly gained from this experience. All of you take it differently than others, but have all come to accept this is a reality and is happening. It has been six months since these transformations have begun to occur. Not only does this happen nightly, but you have started to take on a characteristic of your animal side, something small and barely noticeable or something that may be effecting your personality and/or life.
You may also be aware that you are not alone in this strange situation. Some of you may have come across others who have had this, somehow able to communicate with them as an animal. Yet no one is sure who is telling the truth and who anyone actually may be outside their animal form. Trust is low when you have little control over such a situation.
But answers may become solved as a shadowy force begins to watch you during the day. You may also feel it is time to meet people as humans, though not everyone would be welcome to this idea.
No matter what happens later, all you know for right now is the basics. You, against your will (or willingly now) turn into an animal each night for four hours free to do as you will. Nothing else.
What will you find out? What might happen next? The animal part is already beginning to effect your human life and this may not be the first effect from this constant transforming. No one is quite sure but they all hope for it to end. Somehow, someway.
So the summary supplies a lot of the needed information but let me said it again and add a few things:
So the only rules besides following what I said above and the obvious site rules is you can have only two characters. Well I guess that is all I need to add. Onwards the the character sheets!
Name: (First and Last. Middle is not necessary)
Age: (They must be over 17)
Appearance: (Link, description, picture, it's all good to me)
Personality: (Should be obvious what to write. Give me a good amount of sentences)
History: (Tell me about them. Please mention their experience before the change and then their reactions to the change)

Name: Jin
Ryong
Age: 20
Appearance:
Personality: Jin is not the nicest girl around. She tends to be blunt about things and can be a bit of a brat as well. Jin is outgoing as well and doesn't shy away from being herself and out there as well. She can be nice to people, she just doesn't see the point in always acting this way and refuses to let people step all over her. She can be sarcastic, but has a good sense of humor as well. She can be kind of bossy as well.
History: Jin's parents were born oversea or so they both were told. They came over to America young and eventually met up n college. Her mother went to get a degree in law and eventually her father dropped out and went to go and manage and eventually own his parents Korean restaurant. Three years into their relationship and they got pregnant with Jin. They soon married and Jin's mother took a break from college. She did not go back after Jin's birth though as she got pregnant two years later with Jin's younger brother. She is now working towards it.
Jin is trying her best to break away from her parents but works in the restaurant like her brother to help pay for her college tuition. She hopes to make it as a game designer but has told no one in her family about his choice. She knows her father plans for her to take over the business eventually and this is something Jin does not wish.
When Jin first began the transforming, she was freaked out but only thought them as vivid dreams. As they continued, she began to accept them more and more as reality but is still freaked out by it as she had no choice. Jin is also weirded out by having her gender changed as an animal. She knows some of the others, but rarely interacts.
Animal: Tom(cat)
Effected Behavior: Jin is finding herself to become more and more territorial as time progresses and is beginning to "mark" her territory with purfumes and sprays.

Name: Daniel Webbings
Age: 27
Appearance:
Personality: Daniel is still very much a kid at heart. He likes to have fun and mess around, but can be serious if they situation calls for it. He is always looking on the brighter side of things and can be considered naive for his viewpoint on subjects. He just likes seeing the best of everyone. Daniel is hard-working as well, but he would rather be enjoying himself. Daniels always tries to go out of his way to brighten people's day if he can.
History: Daniel had a pretty fair childhood. He was born to a middle class family and was the oldest brother of two, with a younger brother of a few years. Daniel was always an outdoors type of kid and he loved to have fun outside. He would always try and go on "adventures" and once even wander into a woods for a few others. Daniel has a hard time keeping still as a kid, always bursting with energy.
Daniel eventually used that energy in sports. Although he mellowed a bit as he aged, he never completely got rid of the child-like wonder and desire for adventure within him. Daniel went on to go to college and is now working as a 1st grade teacher and during the summer, a camp advisor. He loves working with kids and hopes to set them on the path to find their own adventure and to enjoy life as well. Daniel is also dating a banker for about two months now.
Daniel was confused by what was happening and also sought out help from a therapist, afraid he might be going mad. But he has learned to accept it and sees it as a way to be free and have an adventure. He wishes to tell his girlfriend, but has not yet done so.
Animal: Tawny Owl
Effected Behavior: Daniel finds himself more focused to small details and movements that happen around him.

So the summary supplies a lot of the needed information but let me said it again and add a few things:
- Each and every night from 1 to 6 (I may change this though) you turn into an animal. There is no exception. It happens to everyone every single night during the exact same time for the exact same length. What happens is always this: At 1am you black out and come to as an animal somewhere in the city. At 6am you black out and awake later (can be any amount of time) as a human.
- This animal can be anything that might be roaming around a city. A cat, a dog, a bird/owl, a rat, a ferret, a goddamn bunny rabbit maybe. Something. No wild animals except for wolves, coyotes and foxes. Only one person may claim one of these and they must be realistic as an animal and their explanation for people not reacting. People can react to them, but I do not want a huge issue to come from it. At least not for right now. Also the gender of the animal does not have to be the gender of your person.
- Some of you may have run into another one of the others through any reasonable way. You can know one to how ever many you want, but the other person must be willing to let them know them. You can not be aware that it's happening to other people as well! Or you may know but do not interact with anyone, keeping to yourself.
- As an animal you are free to do whatever, but keep it realistic and reasonable. You're an animal, not a goddamn superhero. This is not like being a werewolf or something. As an animal you are limited to what that animal can do.
- This occurrence has been going on for sixth months at the start of the RP. Your character should be familiarized with the change and all that comes with it. All should have accepted it's not a dream or delusion, but I am open to having one or two characters stuck on this. But most have accepted it is really happening. Some may have tried to figure it out as well, but so far no one else is aware that it's happening besides them.
- Your character is NOT ALLOWED to go near to where they passed out at. Your character will find that they are turned away from that spot if they get too close. They will not think this is weird until much later. I may change this rule.
- Last thing (for now), each person has a characteristic from their animal part that is coming through to their human life. It can be a small thing or a big thing but it's nothing physical and nothing that will make them seem crazy. For instance my character will become more and more territorial as time goes on.
So the only rules besides following what I said above and the obvious site rules is you can have only two characters. Well I guess that is all I need to add. Onwards the the character sheets!
