Feral is the new Normal
Static sounds came right after as the whole police department got on their feet, into their cars and driving down the roads to the spot reported. This is the almost every day life of Kovesgrove, a town in the middle of the US. Bacteria XIP-668 spread three years ago, infecting a tenth of the town's population before it could be stopped. There was no antidote. Infected began showing severe symptoms. Some started changing shape, others got distinct features, some got their senses heightened and some could even change their form at will. It is known as the Feral Mutant Infection to the general population, FMI for short. That's how the townspeople call the infected - FMI. They are afraid of the FMI. They think they're a threat. And they are not guilty for thinking so as some are actually a threat. Some are dangerous. They use their new abilities to terrorize civilians.
People that have been infected with the virus are categorized into these species:
Mammal - These mutants have the distinct features of a mammal animal, possessing one or few traits of a certain animal.
Reptiles - These mutants have the distinct features of a reptile animal, possessing one or few traits of a certain animal.
Birds - These mutants have the distinct features of a bird animal, possessing one or few traits of a certain animal.
Insects - These mutants have the distinct features of an insect animal, possessing one or few traits of a certain animal.
Arachnids - These mutants have the distinct features of an arachnid animal, possessing one or few traits of a certain animal.
Aquatic - These mutants have the distinct features of an aquatic animal, possessing one or few traits of a certain animal.
When infected, people have different reactions to the virus. Here are the currently recorded effects:
- Possessing one or few animal traits. Such as having fur, growing fangs and claws, growing a tail, growing a long tongue, growing wings and so on...
- Heightened senses. Such as better hearing, better smell and so on, however, these often fell more pain than they normally would as pain is also heightened.
- Partial Transformation. With this effect the infected usually can transform one or several of their limbs and other body parts into full on animal ones. This is extremely rare and has only been sighted twice.
- Shape Shift. This effect allows the infected to fully transform into the animal gene they are infected with. This gives all of the features the animal would have, however, kills the ability to speak with humans and understand them.

Places of Interest
You may create your own places within this town. These are the only ones that will be used within the plot.
Central District
- Willbourne
A bar where most of the FMI hang out, as it's runner is also one of them. A shape shifter. They are welcome there to feel like at home. Until the police finds out.
- Kovesgrove Police Department
Pretty self explanatory. A police department standing somewhere within the town. They mostly get FMI alerts nowadays.
Urban District
- Apartments and Houses
Places where people live in, obviously.

This night wasn't different from any other - tens of FMI's sat in the tavern, conversing, fighting, betting on the local sports teams. A man barged in through the door of the tavern. A guy rather. In his mid 20's. With his arm baring huge teeth marks and dripping blood as if it was a fountain.
"Jesus Christ! That asshole bit me! She bit me! The FMI bit me! Please, someone, help!" He yelled just before he noticed that this tavern was different. Some of the people there had features of animals. He realized that he came to the wrong place.

Kovesgrove Central District.
Kovesgrove is nothing but a city dating far back to the medieval ages. Some of the buildings still date back to those times, such as the Koves Castle which stands on a hill just outside the town itself, the remnants of a once huge stone wall surrounding the town which was now stretched much farther than the wall used to stand, and of course, let's not forget the ever lasting Willbourne, a tavern in the center of the town. It is a tavern not much people go to as it is often met by fights and debts. A perfect place for the FMI to hang out. A few people sometimes also visit the Willbourne, however, they rarely come out alive. If they do, they're scarred or infected. Even though the atmospheric infection was stopped, they can still be infected if they come in contact with another FMI's saliva or blood. Infecting another person was a huge deal. They often die from the infection, and new bloods don't know the rules set by the old FMI's. There are a few basic rules every FMI needs to know to survive. And those are not to show their full potential in public and not to kill without need. Of course, there are always those who do not follow the rules, but they often get caught by the police and killed. There is no cure for this infection. The police are ordered to kill every single one FMI alive.Kovesgrove Central District.
