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 16)
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. Don't have to go into too much detail of their time as an animal before the start)
Animal: (What do they turn into?)
Effected Behavior: (What is the thing that is happening to them based off their animal?)
Other: (Include anything else)

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 5 (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 5am 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 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!
