The year is 2017. But in this universe, biogenetic tech is much more advanced. Insane projects have been done that we wouldn't think would be possible in our world. In fact, the tech is so advanced it has the capability to alter someone's appearence. In this universe, you can go somewhere to have your hair color changed or your eye color changed or even your skin color changed, all through the use of biogenetics. But, the industry hasn't just attracted the attention of people who don't like the way they look, it's also gained interest from the military. They thought, "How can we make the greatest soldier?". Well, let's just say someone had the brilliant idea to combine human and animal genetics to make the greatest soldier. Just imagine a cheetah in the Marines or an otter in the Navy SEALS or-you get the gist. They were doing everything right, so they thought. The method they used was something like a virus. It is introduced to the system, and as it's "infection" progressed it would change the once human individual.Two forms were made, one that is more airborne while the other is more "contagious" through contact. Both had worked! There were some occasions with a few different strains where the subject went feral, which wasn't pretty. Sometimes the subjects go a little crazy and, well, same results as the feral subjects. Now of course, these test were kept hidden from the public. It was a well kept secret, until "it" happened. Some think it was a disaster, some think it was a planned strike. Whatever it was, something bad happened. Some sites, an unexplained explosion occurred, others a sudden power outage to containment, either way, the "virus" was released. As it spread, other nations shut their borders to the U.S. Soon there was conflict within the States. Not just humans versus infected and survivors versus ferals, but a group versus the government. Chaos is probably the best word that could beused to describe what used to be America. And your characters will be going through it all from the start.
Alright, basic gist is that our characters will start out as humans just before the disaster. But as the RP goes on and things get more chaotic (and when is up to you) your character could get infected with this virus and change into what ever animal-human hybrid that that strain was meant to. I will have a lore page up going into a bit more detail about this virus and the different forms and strains of it, and more info when need be. I want this to be a casual to detailed RP so posts should be a good paragraph or more in length. Feel free to ask any questions you have. I'll be glad to answer them. One more thing, I am more than open to new title suggestions.
