Winds of Change RP

[Dusty]

this is based off the Winds of Change stories by Jon Sleeper and others. Kudos to them.

When you hit puberty did you ever feel like you were changing into something inhuman? Well, in this universe, it's true. Once you hit puberty, you gain animal characteristics (explained later). But not in the way you think. If your parents were both wolf-morphs, then it's entirely possible that you might become a cat-morph. Or a horse-morph. Or even a Blue Jay-morph. It's random. Because no matter what your parents look like, you're human until you hit puberty.
Why did this happen? One day a "furry" universe invaded a universe very similar to our own. This caused what is simply known as "the Change" on Monday, June 17, 1996. On that day, the Change started simultaneously all over the world, regardless of time zone. But respectively, it started at 5 am Pacific time, 6 am Mountain, 7 Central, and 8 Eastern (and take it either way from there). So there were lots of people caught in bed, in rush hour traffic, on subways, etc. Not to mention on aircraft and everything else...
Other Information

Approximate morph species percentages:
Mammals: 50%
Birds: 25%
Reptiles: 15%
Aquatic: 5%
Other: 5%

Notes:
Sorry, absolutely no insect or invertebrate morphs.
Aquatics includes fish, and aquatic mammals like whales and dolphins.
"Other" includes extinct species like dinosaurs and mammoths.

Degree


This is a very simple concept. Some people Change more than others. Ex: Wolf morph A has fully wolf-like head, tail, digitigrade feet, paw-like hands, and very wolf-like proportions. But s/he retains the ability to speak and opposable thumbs. Wolf morph B has only claw-like fingernails, slightly pronounced canines, and pointed ears. The Degree you Change is also random.
If your character's species is something like a High Degree rodent, s/he would be a giant rat. There would be a size enlargement. Same thing for an elephant morph. Just enlarged size.
Another thing to note are bird morphs and wings. About half of all bird morphs have, legs, wings, and arms. The wings in addition to the arms so they can fly, and manipulate things. Those that don't have wings have the ability to change shape into what they resemble so they can fly (see Powers below). Powers


This universe was the net result of three universes being slammed together. So there's bound to be a lot of instability in the new, composite universe's physical laws. Thus I came up the Powers. Nearly anything you've seen or read about in comic books like X-men are possible. Please see the Powers List (http://xepher.net/~woc-archive/wocpower.htm) by Doug Linger (xodiac@sonic.net) for guidelines. But nothing outrageously powerful. Other notes:

Powers in general are limited to local effects only. And are by nature temporary with no lasting effects.
Powers like an unlimited polymorphic ability (like Coonie in the original story) are rare. Very rare. Much more common (by about 100x) are what I call "Type-Shifters" This Power is limited so say... the ability to change into any bird-of-prey, but nothing beyond birds-of-prey (like mammals).
The ability to assume one's "Norm" shape is very common. Probably 60% of the population can do it. So it's not really considered a Power.
Otherwise, have fun. :) Absolute Rules (not many of those)

NO transgender Changes except as a Power of some sort. Sorry, you're stuck the sex you're born as unless there are special circumstances that must be bounced off of me.
NO making everybody suddenly becoming human again fifty years down the line.
NO straight mythological types like Centaurs, Gryphons, or Unicorns. Except as a Power to emulate these species. Much as I like dragons, there are some limits. :)
NO invertebrate morphs. Sorry, some Universal Laws must be upheld. But it can be a Power to become the normal insect only.
NO insect morphs. Not yet, that is... I'll let you know when they don't break the rule.

Guide to Winds of Change Powers

By Doug Linger (xodiac@sonic.net).


Last updated: March 22, 1999.
These are the Powers used in the Winds of Change universe to date. More will be added as authors create them. Please note that these are only guidelines. Different characters with the same Power may have different power and skill levels, or slight differentiations in how it is used or how it manifests. Or, as Jon says, "Your mileage may vary."
The power to alter the shape of non-living matter. Mass and materials are not changed, just the shape they are in. A wooden table can be made more ornate, or into a large wooden chair, but not into a metal desk.
ANIMAL COMMUNICATION: The wielder can understand what an animal is trying to "say" as it vocalizes. Some people can understand more species than others.
CHANGE EYE COLOR: The ability for the wielder to change the color of their own eyes or that of someone else, even to hues not normally seen in nature.
CLOAK: The power to become invisible. All other senses are still applicable, and a fringe effect, similar to heat waves over a road, can be seen if an observer is looking carefully.
CLONING: The ability to temporarily make one person into a duplicate of another. This applies to all physical characteristics, including gender, but does not duplicate memories or Powers. As with POLYMORPH, the wielder must acquire a shape before a clone of it can be made, and the shape will "reside in memory" in perpetuity. The new clone often has mental problems, especially immediately after this Power is used, due to the change in form. People with this Power often also have the ability to INDUCE NORM-SHIFT.
CONCUSSIVE FLASH: A exploding ball of energy that does no damage to its environs. When it explodes it releases a great amount of sound and light.
DEGREE CONTROL:People with this Power can change the human-animal ratio of their bodies. They cannot go entirely human, but can be very close. People with this Power can always NORM-SHIFT.
DESOLIDIFICATION: Often called Phasing by comic-book fans, wielders of this Power can bass through solid objects as easily as through air.
DISINTEGRATION: The destruction of matter. Any matter, living or nonliving, within a certain radius (usually small, a few meters) loses molecular cohesion.
DREAM RIDING: The wielder can see what another person is dreaming as it is being dreamt. Most people with this Power cannot influence the dreams they are seeing. This is likely a specialized form of TELEPATHY.
ELECTRICAL SUPPRESSION: The ability to cause electronic devices to cease functioning.
EMPATHY: Sensitivity to emotions. An individual with this Power always knows, or can always tell, how others are feeling, but not what they are thinking, as in TELEPATHY.
EYE BEAMS: Lasers shoot out of the individuals eyes. These can range from a mild sting to a very destructive force. It is unknown how people can see while using this Power.
FLIGHT: The power to fly without wings. Bird-morphs generally do not have this, since they don't need it. This could merely be a specific use of TELEKENISIS.
FLIGHTED: The power to fly with wings. Only bird-morphs have this, but not all bird-morphs do. Only, and all, those with wings in addition to arms do (approximately 50% of all bird-morphs). This could merely be a specific use of TELEKENISIS.
FORCE SHIELD: Similar to the KINETIC SHIELD, except it does not absorb kenetic energy, but merely disperses it. It also has less stopping power.
FORCE KNIFE: This makes claws or teeth penetrate especially well, able to cleanly cut steel.
HEALING: Someone with this Power will heal from injuries unusually fast. This Power usually activates even if the weilder is unconsious. Unlike a person with TOUCH OF LIFE, only the weilder gets the benefits of this Power.
HOLIGRAPHY: Much like PROJECTION, the wielder can create images to appear out of thin air. These constructs can be complicated enough to fool eyes and ears, but there is no scent and they are not solid. Unlike the other Power, the wielder's consciousness remains in his or her own body.
IDENTIFY: The power to detect other people with Powers and/or to tell precisely what that Power is.
ILLUMINATION: The ability to provide light, usually in the form of a hovering, insubstantial ball. This can range from a tiny glow that can barely illuminate a closet to what nearly amounts to artificial suns.
INDUCE NORM-SHIFT: The power to make another turn into the full animal form. This is usable even on people who otherwise cannot do so. The subject can change back at will, although all the dangers of a NORM-SHIFT are present.
JINX: This Power is entirely passive, yet still very dangerous. Any Power used against a wielder of this Power functions as expected. For a variable amount of time afterwards, however, the Power will go wildly out of control or in some other way malfunction. It is currently unpredictable how the Power will fail, or for how long. It is also largely involuntary.
KINETIC BLAST: Spheres of enormous kinetic energy. These can be thrown for varying amounts of damage, from a light punch to the equivalent of being hit by a moving train. The projectiles are powered by the KINETIC SHIELD.
KINETIC SHIELD: A kinetic-energy-absorbing wall that protects the wielder. These absorb kinetic energy and use it to create a KINETIC BLAST. An enormous amount of energy can be absorbed, but any energy stored must eventually be released.
LIGHTNING BOLT: An arc of electricity arcs from the wielder to the subject. The subject is electrically shocked, perhaps even elecrocuted.
LIQUID CONTROL: Rare outside of aquatic morphs, wielders of this Power are able to control liquids within their range. The range varies per wielder, and generally the more types of liquid able to be controlled (like blood, water, juices, etc.), the shorter the range. The control manifests itself as a for of TELEKENISIS applicable only on liquids.
LOCATION: The weilder can find any object, or type of object, so long as he is familiar with it. For instance, Locating a watch will simply point him at the nearest watch; Locating a specific watch requires the weilder to know it fairly well. Trying to Locate, say, a car part would fail if the person did not know what the part was.
MAGNETISM: The ability to attract or repel metallic objects. Those objects do not need to be ferrous in nature, despite the name of the Power. This could merely be TELEKENISIS usable only on metals.
MALLEABILITY: The limited, localized liquification of the wielder's body. Puncture wounds seal like liquid behind the intrusive material, and blunt objects may bend but not break bones. It is unknown how many damaging events can be deferred at once before the wielder begins to actually take damage. Burns, chemical weapons, and energy weapons such as EYE BEAMS cannot be deferred by this Power.
MENTAL BARRIER: The ability to shield one's mind from mind-oriented Powers, such as TELEPATHY or SUGGESTION. The wielder is made immune, or at least resistant, to such Powers. Most wielders of those Powers can do this, as well.
MICROSCOPIC VISION: The ability to see items normally too small to be seen without artificial enhancements. Morphs who are birds-of-prey have this naturally, but it is not considered a Power; it is only considered a Power in a morph whose normal animal does not have such excellent eyesight.
MIND-WRITING: The ability to take images from someone's mind and reproduce it exactly on paper. This is likely a specific form of TELEPATHY.
MULTI-MORPH: A very limited form of POLYMORPH, in which two or more unrelated forms are accessable by the wielder. It is limited in that the forms are apparently pre-set for each wielder, and the repetoire cannot be changed or added to. Nobody with this Power is known to have more than seven separate forms, including the "base" morph.
NORM-SHIFT: The ability to become the full animal shape of whatever morph the wielder is. Someone who is part fox, for instance, can become what is to all senses a normal fox. This is the most common Power, with approximately 60% of the worlds population having it. This Power is mildly dangerous to the wielder, in that instincts are much more prominant when in animal form. There is also the danger of the wielder losing their mind to the animal, although this danger can be reduced greatly with practice.
NULLIFY: The ability to negate another person's Power. The subject's power simply does not work when it is attempted to be used. Some wielders of this Power can apply it to an object; afterwards, Powers will not be useful against that object.
ORACLE: The ability to predict the future. Like the legendary Oracles, however, such predictions are rarely clear, even to the wielder. As a result, there is some debate as to whether this is truly a Power. This is different from REPLAY in that the wielder does not actually live through the future; rather the visions appear metaphorically in dreams or sudden fugues.
PLASMA BLAST: The wielder can convert matter to energy with extreme efficiency (much higher then nuclear reactions, although much lower than antimatter). This energy can be stored in the wielder's body, and emitted at will, usually through the eyes or mouth.
POLYMORPH: The ability to change into any animal morph. This is a much broader type of shapeshift than a TYPE-SHIFT and is very, very rare. The wielder must first acquire by touch a shape before it can be used. This acquisition causes the wielder to faint or nearly do so; forever after, however, the wielder can turn to a morph of the acquired type at will.
POWER DETECTION: The wielder can detect another person's Power, but only if it is being used at the time. Inactive Powers are undetectable. The wielder also gains some intuitive knowledge of the nature of Powers that are successfully detected. However, this knowledge is not by any means all-informitive.
PROJECTION: The power to project a polymorphous, non-solid but visible construct away from the body. The true body appears to go to sleep, and the wielder senses through the construct. Sight and hearing can be utilized, taste and touch cannot. It is unknown whether scents can be smelled by the construct and, through it, the wielder. The construct can be used up to approximately one mile from the sleeping body.
PYROKENESIS: The wielder can cause flammable objects to spondaneously combust. Some people can cause flames to appear without any known source, and hence can throw firefalls. A few individuals can also control the shape of the flames, but this may be TELEKENESIS applied at the same time.
REPLAY: The power to travel through small amounts of time, in the range of minutes. It takes a corresponding amount of effort to go back further; while it is nearly effortless to go back one minute, going back ten makes the wielder exhausted. This is not physical time travel; the user's psyche enters his own body at the appropriate time. Thus to anyone except the wielder, it appears to be precognition. A time period, once played a second time, may not be played again; events occurring the second time through cannot be altered, except perhaps by another wielder of this Power.
RETRIEVAL: The wielder can teleport objects he is not holding to him, so long as he knows exactly where the object is and it is within range.
SONIC SCREAM: An enhanced roar or yell that can cause physical damage. This is generally quite damaging, but can be made even more so with effort. It is possible though difficult to focus the effect in a certain direction.
SPEED: Running extremely fast. People have been clocked running more than 100 mph (160 kph).
SPLIT: The wielder can physically serperate his instincts from his human self. This Power is more common in morphs with intsincts that are already nearly sentient, but this is by no means universal.
STICKING: Adherance to walls or ceilings. Although usually done with the hands and feet, other parts of the body may be used to cling. The laws of leverage still apply; someone with this Power could not walk up a wall while perpendicular to it as if it were horizontal. This Power will work through thin clothing, like socks or most gloves, but will not work through shoes.
STRENGTH: The wielder's muscles are much more powerful than normal. The wielder can lift items which mormally require cranes, and is also protected from the effects of his own Power, in that they not only can punch through steel but will not pulp their hand in doing so.
SUGGESTION: The ability to make people do or believe things. The subject could be made to believe anything, even an obvious falsehood. The subject can also be made to do things that are against his self-intrest, although it is unknown whether it is powerful enough to cause someone to commit suicide. This could merely be a specific form of TELEPATHY.
TECHNOMANCERY: Whereby the user has the Power to influence any single powered device equipped with circuitry, i.e. interact with a computer on a level deeper than machine language. This interaction may range from probing a circuit for faults to "possessing" a computer or computer-controlled device and controlling it as one does their own body. 'Mancing of an entire network of computers dramatically reduces the Technomancer's abilities and places great strain on them, resulting in physical exhaustion and, if left unaided, eventual death. This Power is rare.
TELEKENISIS: The ability to move objects without touching them. Objects must be within line of sight, and usually within view as well. Different people have different strengths of this Power; some can lift cars, while some can only move a book.
TELEPATHY: The ability to talk mind-to-mind. This often has several adjunct Powers as well: the ability to look for familiar minds in a crowd, and the ability to read thoughts. These are all easier to utilize when the recipient is willing, but can be done with an unwilling subject.
TELEPORTATION: The power to move instantly from one point to another. There are two known variations on this ability: 1) The wielder can travel to any point within line-of-sight, meaning there can be no obstacles between the endpoints, and 2) The wielder can travel to any point in view; it needs to be looked at. Only the second method allows artificial views to be used, such as television pictures or photographs, although this trait is not universal. Wielders of both variations can visit anyplace they can remember well enough, although "well enough" varies widely. Theoretically wielders of this Power can visit other planets and stars; however, none have yet claimed to do so, suggesting a spacial limit. This limit, if it exists, is definitely greater than the diameter of Earth.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL: The ability to raise or lower the temperature in rooms or objects -- including people -- by several degrees.
TEMPORAL ECHO: Wielders of this Power can "attune" themselves to the structure, they can call up everything that's ever happened inside it or just around it. It is similar in effect as reading minds like in TELEPATHY, but somehow usable on objects without minds.
TIME DISTORTION: The ability to speed up or slow down time. This is subjective; to anyone else time flows normally. But a person who subjectively slowed time to dodge a bullet will seem to others to have extremely fast reflexes and move incredibly quickly.
TOUCH OF DEATH: The ability to cause the electricity in a subject's body to short ciruit. The nervous system, including brain tissue, essentially is destroyed. The subject must be touched for this power to be weilded.
TOUCH OF LIFE: The ability to cause injury to heal much faster than normal. Unlike HEALING, this is usable by the wielder on either himself or a subject, but a subject must be touched to be healed. It is unknown whether this will work to eliminate disease.
TRANSFORMATION: The power to change a subject from one morph to another, permanently. This can only be done on a new morph, ie pubescents, before their genes have stabilized in the new form. This can only be done once per person. Unlike the original Change, new morph is not randomly picked, although the Powers are re-randomized. Generally the new Powers are very different from the old.
TYPE-SHIFT: The power to change into any morph of a certain type, such as any birds, or lizards, or horses, or dinosaurs, etc. This is an uncommon Power but far more common than the POLYMORPH. The range of shapes available vary widely among people with this Power, with some people restricted to a certain Genus while others may select any from a certain Family, Super family, or Order. The range available always includes the wielder's "base morph". WARP TELEPORT: A person with this Power can go anywhere almost instantaneously. This version is slightly different from TELEPORT in two minor ways. The first is that there is a "warp effect" similar to that seen on certain science-fiction television shows directly (except for Earth's curvature) between the beginning and destination. The second difference is that this Power is slightly longer (on the order of a few seconds only), possibly due to energy being diverted to create the warp effect. No distinct purpose has been found for this effect.

[Defil3r]

Whoops sorry, Didn't pay attention to setting. Changing...

Ok edited the char sheet.

[Dusty]

((Okay lets start))

A large pain trough my back woke me up. Moaning I roll over in my hotel bed to see the clock. "5 o'clock? Damn," I mutter sitting up in my bed. I throw legs over the edge and stand up. I shuffle into the restroom. I switch on the light just as a huge pain seared down my spine to my tail bone. "Gagh!" I yell and pull my sweat pants off to see golden fur spreading along my torso. "What the hell?" I mutter. Then I feel my tail bone lengthen and I watch as a tail grows out. It too gets cover in gold fur with a tuft of red fur at the end. Then my chest starts to itch and light fur spreads across it. I hear a muffled yell a few rooms over....

[Pirahordica_King]

"Wha...?" wispered Kazen as he felt the last of the pains, tingles, and poping sounds disapeared. Quickly looking in a mirror, he let out a small sound of horror.
His body had rearanged itself, and he now had backwards bending, yellowish brown legs, and a brown-white feathered tail between. These fethers covererd most of his body, and his head now had yellow eyes, a beak intended for ripping meat off a body, and brown fethers. His arms sported longer flight feathers and were strangly jointed, ending in small clawed hands.
"I'm...a monster?" he cried. Walking around in a circle, thinking, and occasionly banging his head into the wall in anger and frustration, he pondered his new predicament.
That still did'nt change the fact that Kazen hated this with every ounce of his being...or did he?
"I mean, I always dreamt of being a hawk when I was little, and I suppose I could survive this..." he said to himself undecidely. "Well, no matter what I want, this is what im like now...I'll just have to live with it!"

[Defil3r]

Greg had been having a peaceful night. No interruptions, no staff visits, no late night partys. For just ounce everything seemed to be going his night. But according to him, this wouldn't last long. Either way something would wak ehim up wether, a officer coming up, the building setting on fire...
A raking pain shot through his body. Greg merely tried to shrug it off, simply tossing and turning until it ceased. But that was not the case. It kept hightening until he couldn't stand it any longer. His eyes poped open and he looked about the room, face in a grimace. Then, his arm made a jump. He looked at his left one. He had it in a tight position, a vein or too revealing its self. But somthing else caught his eye. A small, blackish spot appeared on forearm. But after awhilt, they were all over his arm. Greg eventually found out that, oddly enough, these were scales. The same mimicked his right arm. He went to slam his hand into his face, but this was a mistake. Claws were the first thing he felt aside from the constant pain. He immediatly pulled back, yelling. "Damn!" Yet, another detail came about on his face. It stated to feel, like...a snout. Yes, a snout. He hoisted himself out of bed to find his legs manipulated into a beast-like stance, his feet, if you can call them that, where on the tips of his toes. Surprisenly, it felt as that was better than the normal, flat-footed stance. Long claws extended from the ends. The only thought on his mind was the fact, He felt like getting near some heat source. It didn't feel right, but hell, lotsd of things didn't feel right and thios point.

[Dusty]

GUYS this is set just as evreyone in the world changes for the first time! THere are no part animal ppl yet! Please edit your posts! >.<


IC: I open my door and look out into the hallway. There was a guy turning into some sort of lizard sitting in the cornor bangig his head on the wall. I feel another surge comeing on and I watch as the fur thickens and spreads. I watch as my feet alter. My little tow was sucked in and the rest of my toes shorten and puffed out until my foot was a paw. The same thing happened to my other foot. "Oh my god!" I yell to no one. I run back into my room and grab the phone. "All circuts are busy please try your call again later," was all I got. I spin around and turn on the TV. Most of the channels were out but I did find CNN. "We have gotten reports that this is happening all over the world," was what the News anchor said. He was becomeing some kind of Elk. I hear a few more yells plus some stombing sounds. Another surge hits. My neck itchs and a thick mat of red fur envoleped it and grew out into a thick mane. My god I'm becomeing a lion I think to myself. More gold fur spread over my arms and legs till they were completly covered....

[Defil3r]

(OOC: Damn ceaser, calm down. I don't think hes that familiar with it...and neither am I)

[Dusty]

Not just him. Read the end of your post 2. sorry didn't mean to seem mad. Just a little fustrated sorry.

[Defil3r]

(OOC: Damn ceaser, calm down. I don't think hes that familiar with it...and neither am I)
(Uhh...yeah. Thats what I said, but I'll just keep with the RP)

[Dusty]

IC:I grab my keys and head out into the hallway. The lizard guy was still banging his head. I hear a snort and stomp behind me. I turn around to see a bull. A full bull. He must have changed all the way I think to myself. Then he charges. Without thinking about I set off in a full blown sprint down the hall way. I trip over the lizard guys feet, he doesn't even move. The bull keeps comeing. I put my hands up. Then a huge jet of flame emerges from them and hits the bull envolpeing it in flames. It stomps and rams into the wall. Then it collapses on the ground. "Oh my god," I mutter....

[Defil3r]

IC: Greg just sat there banging his head. The migraines he eventually got didn't seem to help knocked him out of this either. One thing that caught the corner of his eye was a, lion tripping over his feet, which he only now noticed were sticking out the door. He didn't move, as he wouldn't know what to say or do. The next thing he knew was the same cat blasting a stream of flames through his hands. Now, normaly he would run away from such a force. But the "new" him loved the intense heat. He wouldn't even mind if he happen to do it again. But the bull, which he just now noticed, was now on fire. Greg, not wanting to make anymore trouble, slowly closed the door...with his tail. This, of course, freaked him out greatly. He grabed the tail and backed up from the door keeping it behind him. "Ok, don't do that again." He said to himself. He flicked on the light. The first thing that he noticed was the small amount of heat coming from it. His skin felt warm, even though he never was aware of this. Until now, anyways. He just sat there for a moment, feeling the sensation. Then, a will not his own told him to go to a nearby wall. He obeyed it, not knowing whether it was right too. The first thing that echoed in his mind was climb. Greg automatically latched one claw, then two claw, three claw, then finally all of his claws. Surprisenly enough for him, he gracefully stroded to the ceiling. He made his way towards the bulb and curled around it. Greg was in a daze, having not just known what in the hell just happened. The lizard unconiencsly flicked his tounge out several times. Great, now I got a 8-inch tounge. But as it flicked, he could smell almost everything around him for just a second, which was not a comfortable experience. The next thing thast happened was him closing his eyes and ounce again asleep. Just this time, he was curled up on the ceiling by a light.

[Dusty]

I just sit there for a moment andwatch the lizard guy climb. After awhile i get up and head for the elevator. Only to find that the doors were ripped off. Guess I know were the bull came from I think to myself. I head to the stairs only to see that the door had locked becuase of my little fire. Grumbling I head back to my hall. The lizatd had apparently gone to sleep. Something I wouldn't have minded. I try to lay down on my bed but then another surge hit. My face pushed out into a feline muzzle and huge canines grew out. My hair fell out only to be replaced by golden fur. My ears grew pointed and my hearing grew alot better. i could here the lizard breathing down that hall. Then my nose came in. The smells nearly overwhelmed me. Then is was over. All morning I had a sense that evreything was wrong. But now I had a sense of completeness. It was over for me at least. I climbed into the bed to try and sleep but I couldn't find a comfortable postion. Setting I think about my problem. For some reason Imagine a jello like barrier in my mind. I mentally push through it. I feel my pelvis rearange and my legs change. When the feeling was over I looked in the mirror. I was a full lion! Panicing I imagined walking back through the barriar. I changed back. Thats awesome I think to myself. I shift back to full then curl up on my bed. Soon I'm fast asleep...

I woke up with a aching pain along my spine. Groggily getting up, I headed towards the bathroom. I was frightened at what I saw. There were black feathers covering all over my body, and I had a...beak. I felt a strange pushing on my back, and turned my head around suprisingly far. There were wings growing out of my back. "Oh my god.." I muttered.

Age: 23
Gender: Female
Power: Touch of Life
Animal: White Fox

Description: She has long legs that bend like normal humans at the knee but her foot elongates at the ankle causing her to stand mostly on her toes (paw?). Her hands are white and covered in fur but retain the same shape as humans. She has a somewhat short snout and a black nose. Her tail comes down to her ankle and usually just flicks back and forth. The hair on her head is white as well; it runs down her back slightly past the armpit and is very fluffy.
Norm-Shift: Yes
_____________________________________
Jennifer awoke one morning while she was staying in a hotel to a sharp pain shooting through her spine. She winced and rolled over to turn the bedside lamp on. Once she turned it on she whipped the blanket off of her and saw that her chest was covered in fur. She quickly got out of bed and went to the bathroom.

“What the hell…” she whispered as she moved across the room. Once inside the bathroom she looked in the mirror and saw her face was now covered in fur. Pain shot from the base of her neck all the way down her back and ended in her tail bone. She instinctively reached around and grabbed the pained area and found a hard, furry lump there. She turned profile and saw the lump was growing, after a few seconds the pain ceased and she was left with a tail dangling to the floor. She closed her eyes and sighed, when she reopened them she looked cross-eyed down at her nose which seemed to be growing forward, she reached up and touched her normally perfect face; she found tufts of fur on each of her cheeks. Her lower jaw was moving forward as well. After a short while her nose and lower jaw formed into a snout of sorts with a little black dot slowly growing at the end. Once it was fully formed she realized this was her nose and a flood of new smells overwhelmed her. So much in fact that she stumbled backwards and smacked her head against the door-knob, sending her crashing to the floor. She opened her eyes and saw blood trickling to the floor; she quickly stood and looked in the mirror. She reached a shaky hand to her furry forehead and instantly the wound went away.

“Dear god” she whispered. She looked down at her legs, they too had fur on them but now they had paws instead of feet. She quickly ran back to her bed and lay down, If I just go to sleep I can just wake up and all of this wont be happening she thought to herself. After about 15 minutes of this she noticed she was hearing sounds from the other rooms, better than she normally could. She got up and went back to the bathroom expecting it all to have gone away, but instead she now had fox like ears. She was now fully changed; she began pacing frantically about the room not knowing what to do.

[Dusty]

I hear a crack I quickly open my eyes. I shift back to morph and see I was only asleep about 20 minutes. I try to pull some pants on but my tail was in the way. I reach in the pocket and pull out the knife. Carefully I cut a hole. Aftering doing the same to my boxers I slide them on. I decide to go without shoes since they wouldn't fit my feet. Grabbing my keys I head for the stairs. Most of the guest had wandered into the hall. There was a Kangaroo and a horse at the end of the hallway by the stairs. "Hey. Are the stairs open again?" I ask. "Well mate thats what were about to fix," Sayed the Kangeroo, "Can you give us a hand?" "Sure," I say. All 3 of us back up a few yards then charge at the door. Me and the Kangroo didn't really do anything. The horse litteraly blew it off its hinges. "Wow," I mutter. "Ya I guess I'm strong," says the horse equally as shocked....

[Defil3r]

Greg blinked several reptillian blinks. He thought that would spark it and he would wake up in his bed, and everything would be back to normal. Yet, Greg was still hanging upside down on the ceiling. He sighed, which came out more as a hiss. But there was something else he noticed. He felt, shorter. He eventually realized, his legs and arms were shorter. He was clinging on all fours. He felt sleeker, and he turned his short neck around, and all he saw was his back running all the way down to his tail. His eyes widened. For the love of god... He thought to himself. Just when he thought it was permanant, there were several cracks and he felt himself shake madly. The next thing he knew was he was on the floor, half human again. The shift made him loss balance. He picked himself up and looked at the light again. His head ached, and as the pain got worse, the light got brighter. He placed his hand on his head and tryed to succumb it. But it got worse. He moaned from the constant pain. Then, as the pain got to his highest, the light was as bright as it would be in the afternoon. It flickered, then suddenlt burst into dozens of tiny fragments. And as soon as it burst, the pain gave way and he felt better. He looked up at the now busted light. "I'm not paying for that."

[Dusty]

I hear a bang back near my room. "What the?" I mutter. Turning around I run back to the hall way just in time to see a light bulb explode. I glance into the room to see the lizard guy on the floor rubbing his head. I walk in and help him to his feet. "You okay?" I ask him.

[Defil3r]

For a moment, Greg just layed on the floor, trying to get the rest of the pain away. The next thing he knew was he was being helped up by a lion who asked. "Are you okay?" I responded with. "Uhh, yeah. I'll be fine." After a moment, I shook my head again several times to bring myself back to reality. That was one hell of a headache.

[Dusty]

((For future refrence I was the one who cuaght it on fire))

"You sure your okay?" I ask him again. He just shakes his head. Muttering I walk out into the hallway. I hear footsteps behind me and turn around to see him following me. "Can you at least talk?" I ask fustrated. "Ya I can," He answers. Just then a door opens up and a very dishevled looking hawk come out. "What the hell happened?" he ask. "Thats the million dollar question, Whats you name?" I ask. "Ray who are you?" he answers. "I'm Dustin but call me Dusty. This fellow back here is I dont know," I say gestureing to the lizard.

[Defil3r]

...
(Ok, I just nerfed the questions.)

The lion asked again for a second time. "Are you sure your okay?" I kept shaking my head, not quiet back to the realworld yet. So he took this as a 'no' and walked off muttering somthing. When I felt as I could walk, I ventured from my room. I was planning on going downstairs and finding my car. The same lion, obviously frustrated, turned back and saw me.
"Can you at least talk?" He asked.
I replied with. "Ya, I can."
Next thing he saw was a, hawk? Yes, lets say a hawk, came out of a door the lion was near. I overheard there comments. Learning that the hawk was Ray and the lion Dusty, he walked over, hearing the last words.
"You can call me Greg." He said. Although he had no idea how he heard those words from here.
"Sorry if I was a little rude. Things are really f*cked up tonight."

[Dusty]

"Damn right its," said the hawk. "Ya I guess the races over in El grande are canceled," I say with a hint of dissapointment. "Your a racer?"asked Greg. "Ya I tried to call but my cell phone company deicided to crap out on me." "Here use mine," says the Hawk throwing his phone. I catch it and with some diffculty call the tracks. After a few moments I hung up. "The races are still on!" I say with a grin. "Guess I better get going good meeting you." Then I heard something. It sounded like a sob. I queitly head over to the room it was comeing from. Cracking the door I look in to see a white fox laying on the bed. Opening the door I cuaght a wif of smell. She was a women. "Excuse me miss? Are you okay?"

[Biohazard]

A lion appeared at Jenn's door, she slowly looked up at it.

"What is going on with me?" she asked motioning to herself.

She picked up a bag and walked into her bathroom to change out of her pajamas. She was so depressed, she looked at herself in the mirror and cringed the way she normally would but it came out as a snarl on her new face. A tear rolled down her fluffy face as she changed into a white skirt and a pink shirt. She noticed it was un comfortable with her tail under the skirt so she sawed a hole in her skirt that cost 100$ and poked her tail through it. She walked outside to meet the lion.

[Defil3r]

Greg had started to chat with the Ray, who in turn was acually very interesting. He was about to shoot the next question when a snow-white fox stroded out to Dusty. He blinked several times and flicked out his tounge, which he found to be very helpful. He counted up in his mind. Ok, theres me, the lizard, a hawk, a lion, a fox...

[Dusty]

"Tell you what, I'll take all of you out to breakfest. Heavens knows we just need time to unwind and think," I offer. "I wouldn't mind that," says Ray. "Ya I'll go," says the fox. "Oh heck why not," conceds Greg. "Cool theres a waffle house down the road," I say and we hurry out to the parking lot. Evreyone agrees to follow me. I was about to get in my truck when I remembered my tail. Grumbling I head back to the trailer and grab a jacksaw. I use it to cut a hole in my seat. The others apparently found some way becuase four cars started up in the parking lot....

[Biohazard]

As Jennifer started her black mustang she sighed. Nothing was ever going to be the same...if this was even real at this point. She had found a way for her tail, she just put it under her and sat on it, apparently it didnt have many nerves in it so it didnt hurt or anything. Another thought crossed her mind, relationships. How could she have sexual feelings for a guy that looked like a wildabeast? She pushed the thought to the back of her mind and pulled out of the parking space.

[Defil3r]

Greg climbed into his old honda. Its hard to beleived they make these anymore. Even if it was sleek and moderatly clean, it was still aiencent compared to the new models out. And the dark color didn't help in the heat niether. He really needed an updated version. However, the first thing he said was "Ow!" as he sat on his tail. He ruffled around a bit untill he was in a more comfortable position. Three others reved up as well. Wow, this is going to look odd going down the road. But where was he too talk? He had scales and a tail. He brushed some dust of his T-shirt and waited to follow the others lead. And when your hands are covered in scales, grabbing a leather steering wheel wasn't the best feeling.

I snapped awake. I was roasting. The sun coming through the window was way too bright. Something overcame me, striving for shade. Nowhere. Every place was flooded with light. No time. Gotta find shadows. I panicked. I saw shade through the window, under a tree. There. Go. I burst through the window, and floated softly down to ground level. I dashed to the tree and grabbed a strong branch. I dangle and fall asleep.

((>.<))

We arrive at waffle house and the others park. I had to park away from the building due to the large trailer with my car in it. Getting out we head inside. There was a small group of travelers like us plus a few dedicated workers. Sitting down the waiter brought us four cups of coffee. Ray had trouble trying to drink with it. He finnaly just opened his mouth (beak?) wide and dumped it in. "I guess its the end of the world as we know it," sighs Greg. Jennifer just sat there stareing meekly into her cup. "Come on things have just changed a bit. Its not like we can't adapt to it," I say trying to cheer evreyone up. The waiter came back. She was a mouse of some sort. It was right at that time that Ray decided to yawn. I didn't know beaks could open that wide. He gave the waiter a very good view of his throat though. She litterally ran out if the building screaming. "Nice man," I mutter. "What did I do?" he ask incerdulsly. That brought a luagh from evreyone at the table...

[Neu(t)ral Damage]

((omg Caeser you did it again XD))
((you like music way too much XD))

[Biohazard]

As Jenn sits she remembers something that happened while she was changing, "Has anyone else noticed something...strange about themselves?" she looks at Dusty, "I mean, not the change but something...like..." she thinks of a way to describe it. She soon gives up using words and picks up a knife, she cuts into herself, followed by several, "What the fu-"s. She winces and puts a hand to the wound, it quickly disapears, "Something like that?"

[starcraft787878cwal]

"Uh..you mean like this?" I opened my beak and did a hawk like scream, but instead of a scream, just like before, a lightning bolt came out and narrowly avoided frying a nearby car.

[Pirahordica_King]

Kazen stopped banging his head, and slowly left the room. The hallway was in chaos, with doors ripped off, clothes lying around the area, and scorch marks. just then, he heard some cars starting up outside. He decided to follow them, and after several minutes of walking, getting strange staes, and several run ins with other animal-people, he reached the cars destination; a waffle house. He decided to enter, and was suprised to see several other's like him. there was a fox-woman, a lion, a lizard, and a few others. Apparently all the normal people had fled, and so Kazan felt a little more comferatble. He aproached the table the others were sitting at, and spoke up.
"Ummm? He..hello? I guess that I'm, well, not completely alone here...what's happening?"
The lion replied in what was a cross between a humans voice of puzzlement and a lions roar of anger. "No idea. But we still get hungry, and since we didnt feel like killing anyone, we came here..."
Kazen liked this guy already. "Mind if I join you?"

[Dusty]

((WTF PK I'm not a crazy voilent guy >.<)) ((Nutral this Rp was just asking for that XD))

"Sure sit down," I say. "Ya I think I did something hold on." I raise my hands and concentrate. A jet of flame shoots out nearly hitting the Juke box. Evreyone stares, "What?"

[Pirahordica_King]

Kazen leaned away from the jet of flame.
"Woa!" he cried, and in his fright, he released a blast of bluish-greenish light that impacted the counter. It exploded, and blinding light leapt forth, along with a rush of noise that temporaly deafened everyone in the building along with breaking the windows.
"Wha...?" wispered Kazen, even more scared than when he started changing...

[Biohazard]

(So now your destroying the building PK, w t f...)

[Dusty]

Reflexivly I leaped up in front of Jenn as the blast hit us. "Whoa..." I say in amazement. "If yall gonna be doing that crap you best get out," yells the manager. "Sorry I'll pay for it," I say.

((Oh and I know another song for this. Jenny was A friend of mine XD by killers))

[Defil3r]

Greg merely shrugged. After all this, he really didn't feel surprised about a hawk shooting plasma and a lion creating jets of flame. Although he did have to make a comment. "Um...Can we keep the building together?" He made a wry smile, which was difficult with a mouth like his, knowing it was an accident.

[Dusty]

"Ya I still haven't got my steak," I say sitting down. So did the others. "So where were you all headed today?" ask Ray. "I was going to the races. I just got my new RX-8 tuned up thats whats in the trailer," I gesture to my truck. "Where were you headed?" I ask Jenn.

[Biohazard]

(Before I say anything more, what kinda tech do we have? Like Razr cell phones and stuff or what? I wasnt sure of the cars and stuff so I said the firebird if not I have a different car in mind)

[Dusty]

((Basiclly we have regular stuff just soupped up. Like most cars run on fuel cells. And computers are like 2 times more powerful.))

((Your car is fine))

[Biohazard]

(I mean do we have modern things that we have now?)

[Dusty]

(Ya just a bit more advanced))

[starcraft787878cwal]

The waiter came to our table. "What would you all like?" The waiter was a low degree lizard morph of some sort. "I'll have some...salmon." I said. I didn't know why, I just had a craving for salmon. Probably because I was a bird...I waited for the others to finish ordering and watched the waiter walk away. I noticed everyone ordered something related to what their real-life animal counterparts eat. "Strange.." I mutter. "What?" Dusty asked. I told him what I was pondering.

[Dusty]

"I'll take a t-bone Rare," I say on impulse. "Now what is it?" I ask Ray?

((What are you pondering Man don't leave us hanging!)

[Defil3r]

The waiter intriged Greg for a moment, but several other rather discomfortabing thoughts pushed it to the back of his head. He wisked his tail a few times before making up his mind of what he might like. He felt a craving for meat...raw...
Of course, he couldn't just ask for raw meat out of the bue, so he thougt a steak would be have to do. He called to the waiter. "I'll have what hes having." He said as he gestured to Dusty. The waiter nodded, then winked at him. Greg slumpled a little a gulped, hoping that no one saw that.

[Pirahordica_King]

While the others talked about what was going on before it happened and ordering, Kazen hung back. He was embarrqased about both his new apearance, and also almost shaking the building to the ground.
But he knew that this wasent the conversation for him. After all, he didnt realy want to say that he was running away from home after his father died of a heart attack during an argument Kazen had started.
So Kazen sheepishly asked the man who had commented on his destroying of the windows for some cofee and some bacon, a small staek, and some suasages. Anything meaty. For some reason, the idea of eggs mortafied him though...

[Dusty]

For some reason I can't take my eyes off jennifer. I listen as the others talk occasionlly throwing in my own comments. Finnally I notice that the kid who nearly dystroyed the buildig was really queit. "Hey you okay?" I ask him. He just nods. Awefully anti social for a kid I muse.

[Biohazard]

"I was going down to Miami to see some of my girlfriends" she suddenly remembered, excusing herself, she walked outside. She pulled out her pink Razr and dialed her friend Rebecca's phone number.

"Jenn!?!" She heard on the other end after several rings.

"Ya, did you change!?" Jenn said, relieved that her friend was alright.

"Yes!" Her friend also seemed relieved.

"What are you?" Jenn asked

"I think I am some sort of cat" she replied, "What about you?"

"I'm pretty sure a fox..." she sighed, "I don't think I am gonna be able to make it down there"

"I understand, just be careful...whatever it is that you ARE doing" Rebecca giggled, "I'll talk to you later alright?"

"Ya sure" Jenn replied and hung up the phone. She slowly walked back inside and sat back down.

(Btw I changed the car to the 06 Mustang but I'll just call it a mustang)

[Dusty]

((Mustang. Awesome....))

Our food arrives. I pick up my Knife and saw into my steak as Jenn comes back in. Most of the conversation had died back down now that evreyone was eating. I look over to see the kid is just picking at his food. "Okay kid what is it?" I ask. He looks up then mumbles something. "Look whats so bad that you can't tell us?"

"Well its my dad. I killed him," he answered. You could hear a feather drop....

[Defil3r]

As the fox walked back in, Greg tried his claws out. He slipped silently on the ground and crawled accross the rather clean floor. He barly made a sound as he skidded along. He poped up beside Jen and nudged her and rolled his eyes over to where Dusty was sitting. "Hope you have noticed how the lion stares at you?" He said to her. He slipped back to his seat before the fox could make a comment, obviously ammused with himself. I could get use to this crawling thing... He thought. But as he reseated himself, he noticed somthing. It was surprisenly quiet. He looked around this way and, confused about the current situation.

[Pirahordica_King]

Kazen couldent believe he had just blurted it out.
"I'm sure you didn't..." Dusty said, obviusly stunned.
Kazen sighed, and told him the whole thing. "So you see, I realy did kill him. It was all my fault..."

[Biohazard]

As Jen sat she started to feel a little uncomfortable with the lizard and the lion. She just sipped at her coffee silently. She looked around, everyone was an animal, how could life just go on after such a traumatic experience. She ignored the gabbering kid, she just wanted to go home and see her parents.

"Am I the only one that has no idea why the world hasnt broken out into chaos by now?" she blurted out before she could stop herself.

[Pirahordica_King]

The foxs comment cut through Kazens stupor.
"Well, Im sure it has, in some places. I mean, everyones probobly in a daze. Animal bodies, strange powers, etc... But I bet that everyone will break out of it soon, and maby, if we are realy unlucky, their instincts, the animal ones, might emerge to..."
Suddenly, there was the sound of yelling, and from outside came crashes, explosions, and screams to acompany them.
The lizard gave a creepy grin. "Speak of the devil. Rioters!"

[Neu(t)ral Damage]

Awake again. There was relative darkness; cloud cover---wait. What's going on? How did I get to be in a tree? Sleepwalking? No. There was something different, I can hear everything. I can hear keys turn a lock in a car door on the other side of the lot. So vivid, if sound can be called so. I opened my eyes and realize what's become of me. I have wings now, with leathery skin, not a bird's. In my astonishment I failed to remember that I had been dangling from a tree, and so crash to the ground---what the, no pain! Something had cushioned my fall. I got up and began to walk.

[Defil3r]

Greg pondered to himself. I really keep it down on the facial expressions. All that accomplishs is freaking people out. Just as this thought ended, a brick came hurtling through one of the windows and crashed into his head. His eyes rolled ot the back of his head as he fell of his stool, with a loud 'plop' to accompany it.

[Biohazard]

"ZOMFG!" Jessica shouted and kneeled by the lizard, she placed a hand on his head and his wounds dissapeared. She looked at her car, it was fine, but people were getting dangerously close to it, "I think we need to get out of here!" She looked at the lion.

[Pirahordica_King]

Kazen had an idea. He focused on his anger, his sorrow, and his fear.
And from his fingers shot out another ball of concussive force, which reduced the rioters number to half.
"Hurry! And by the way, who can give me a ride?" he asked the others

[Dusty]

I duck as a rock flys by my head. Without thinking I stand up and fire off a jet of flame incenterarting a group of rioters. "We got to get to my truck!" I yell. They just stare at me. Growling I yell, "Come with me if you want to live!" and I run out of the shop. They all follow....

[Biohazard]

"Um..." jenn says. She runs to herr Mustang not daring to leave it behind and gets in. The radio stations were all static, so she just shut them off, she looked over at the Lion's truck waiting for him to pull out so she could follow.

[Defil3r]

(...am I still unconsiences? Need to know that before I post...)

[Dusty]

((Your awake I guess))

Curseing the fact that Jenn was out there I gun the throttle sending the big truck out on to the high way. The rest follow. Then I spot other cars comeing up behind us. I watch in horror as one pulls up along side Jenn and a guy leans out the side with a shot gun. "not you arn't," I roar and pull into his lane and hit the break hard. The driver of the car tried to stop the car but was moveing to fast and slammed striaght into my trailer. Unforatnatly this cuased the trailer to telescope sending my truck into a skid. Another rioter's car had to his demise stayed close to the other and crashed into my trailer's wheels. Almost as if slow motion the trailer lurchs over and tips off the enbankment takeing my truck with it.....

[Pirahordica_King]

>ooc< Defil3r, you are concience, after being healed by Jenn

Kazen had joined dusty on the truck, and was yelling his lungs off as the truck spun around. But when he felt the entire contraption start to tilt, he grabbed Dusty, who in the confusion had forgotten his seatbelt, and launched both their bulks out of the cab in a tremedues effort. they landed at the begining of the slope, and wached helplessly as the truck fell down beside them. Kazen required Dusty's help to make it back up, and Dusty cursed the whole way.
"My...truck...is gone. This...SUCKS!"

[Dusty]

I roar and slam my fist into the ground. "Dude calm down!" yells the Kid. "Calm down? My life was in that truck! My career!" I yell back. "Dude why don't you just go down and check it?" he ask. Grumbling I get up and work my way down the bank. I found my truck at the bottom of the hill. amazenly it was still running. I head to the back and open up the trailer. Stuff had been thrown around but way back in the back I could see my car. I check the drawer of my tool chest and find the key. I work my way back and sit down. The car starts with a throaty roar. "Hot damn!" I yell. I shut it off and climb out. As I exit the trailer I here a snap. A whirl around just in time to see a muzzle flash. I feel a sharp pain in my chest and I collapse to the ground evreything going dark....

[Defil3r]

(Oh, I thought the touch of life just....Oh whatever! I'm awake...)

Greg has running to his car after the rather hasty awaken, whne the next thing he saw was a truck hurtling through the air. He just sat there for a moment his his mouth gaped open. He shook himself from it and raced to his car. It was on the far left of the parking spaces. He reached for his door, but found that it was locked. "Damnit..." He struggled through his pockets, trying to find his keys. "You stupid reptile!" Greg heard him coming. It was a raccoon morph, chargin him with a lead pipe. He unconsiounsly whirled his arm around and ended up making deep, bloody claw marks on the side of his face. Having no idea what just happened, Greg dropped the keys and charged the raccoon, engulfed in rage. But for Greg himself, everything had gone into a black void. He was completly unaware of what he was doing.

[Biohazard]

Jenn stops and does a 180 degree spin and speeds to the bank. She leaps out of the car after shutting it off and runs to the curb. She sees a man holding a shotgun in his hand standing over Dusty. She runs at him as fast as she can, which was surprisingly fast, and slammed into the man. Once he was on the ground she grabbed for the rifle but the man held onto it tight. She slammed he fist into his elbow and heard a snap, she yanked the rifle from his hand and fired a round into him. She then ran to the lion and placed her hands over his wound, it quickly started to heal and after a few seconds it dissapeared and he sat up.

[Dusty]

"Wha.... What happened," I moan my head pounding. "You were shot...." said some voice. Off in the distance I heard sirens. I collapse back to the ground. Exuasted

[Neu(t)ral Damage]

My ears perked up. I could hear sirens, quite far off, but sirens nonetheless. Walking wasn't going to get me anywhere, so I decided to give my wings a flap. They seemed fucntional, and so I was rapidly gaining altitude. Still, something didn't feel right. I noticed how well I stood out against the pale sky. This body wasn't meant for the clear of day. However, I made heading toward the donnybrook.

[Dusty]

I wake to find my self in a hospital room. Looking around I seethe kid and Jennifer sleeping in some chairs. I didn't see greg. I sit up to get a better look at the room when the kid woke up. He sat up and shook Jenn awake. "What happened?" I ask Groggily. "You were shot and I healed you," says Jenn in a quite voice. "You saved my life? Thank you. Uh weres Greg?" i ask. They both look at each other....

[Pirahordica_King]

"We...dont know. Not realy. We heard about a bunch of ramapageing animals, who seemed to have given in to their instincts. They mentiond several lizards, so..." Kazen trailed off.

[DarkMirror]

Can I join? If I cant, I'll just have to steal your soul now, and not later...

[Dusty]

((Sure as log as you don't upset the story))

"Oh dear god," I say a jump out of the bed. "Where are you going?" ask Jennifer. "He could be killed before the cops get there!" I yell on the wat out the door. They follow me and we hop in the Jenns mustang. As we speed off towards the restraunts I keep a close eye out for any lizards. We reach the parking lot with out seeing any. THen I spot a scaled form leaning over what looks like a Raccon person. I hop out of the car and run over. "Greg? Is that you?" I yell. The lizard looks up. I nearly puke at the sight of blood and flesh hanging from its mouth. "Greg?" asks Jenn/ "I don't know. But as she said it the lizard looked up again and charged. With out thinkig i thorw a small fireball at it knockig it to its feet....

[Dusty]

((Dude I didn't right that just copied and pasted it from the URL. No insects or bugs. Sorry))

[DarkMirror]

Damn. Out of curiostity, WHy not? They make sennse...

[Pirahordica_King]

HAHA n00b! take that you random guy who always says you will "STeal your Soul..."
HAHAHAH

[Dusty]

((No they don't some universe laws have to be up held. Bugs have exoskeletons we and other animals have outs inside. We have a back done they don't. Plus there is the whole logistics of it. How would the world adapt to not haveing back bones and stuff?))

((But I didn't make this plot or story theme. That wat Jon Sleeper I just thought it would make a good RP. If you want to know why you can ask the guy who runs the archive site for his current email.))

[Pirahordica_King]

Well, not to root for him, but you then have an exoskeleton. and whats a spine matter? they did it in the source youy copied it from, right?

[Dusty]

Uh all the morphs in the storys have back bones. Insects are so small a back bone is a waste. But were bigger organisms so we need a central nerveous system. There ere no insects in the storys. He put that in there to statisfy some ppl who really wanted them I guess. But he never did allow them. But besides that anything that is a Vertabrate is allowed. As long as its no older then the Dinos.

[DarkMirror]

DAMIT! ah well, wouldhave been nice to be a reaper... See 7ya somewhere else someday. and Also when I steal your souls...

[Dusty]

My soul was already stolen by PK go talk to him.

[Defil3r]

(My soul was stolen by Zerg_Eater. Your a little too late... Oh and my brain was eaten by SHISKABOB)

[DarkMirror]

PK stole your soul? When? That means he needs to give me three souls...Or has he stolen more? I'll have to look into that...

[Dusty]

((Back to the RP please! Defil3r your post))

Greg leaped at Dusty, which apparently had planned ahead. A small fireball skiddered under the lizard's feet as he fell over into the concrete. This gave them enough time to react. "Grab him!" Yelled one. The next thing Greg knew, he was being harrased by a Bird, a lion, and a fox. He squirmed for the next few moments, swishing his tail visiously. But when it proved no avail, he just stopped and lyed still. The party carried him to the mustang, as Greg had lost consiences, trying to sort through himself.

[Dusty]

"Whats wrong with him?" ask the kid as we load him up. I hear a car skid in the distance and turn in time to see a convertable screaming down the high way at us. "I don't know just hold him!" I yell. I then jump in the driver's seat. "Thanks, I'll drive," I grab the keys out of Jenns hands. She jumps in the passanger seat. Then I see the horse running at us with a crow bar. I was about to throw a fire ball when a bolt of lighting hits him. Then a hawk lands between the kid and Greg. "Nice of you to show up," says Ray. I gun the engine screaming onto the high way. I pull a quick turn that cuased the tires to screech. Through the mirror I could see the convertiables roof open and a bear morph with a gun pops out. "Get down in the floor!" I yell. Evreyone gets down into the floor board. I lean down trying to make a smaller target. Then he opens up with the gun. Bullets chew up at the dash board and punch holes in the roof. I spot a sharp turn up ahead. I pull up on the E-brake and stear into the turn excuteing a near perfect drift. The driver of the other cars wasn't as skilled and went wide giveing us a couple feet gain. But he keeps comeing at us. The bear keeps fireig at us, most of the shots miss but one or 2 occaisonally find there way in. I take another sharp turn but a bullets hits the hood of the car and steam erupts from the raditor. The car quickly over heats cuaseing the engine to sieze up. The car stops behind us as we scramble to get out. Then as we run into the wood evreyone freezes includeing me. We couldn't move. I see a road runner get out of the car its beak glowing. "Hello, newest members of the natural order," says the bear. His arm then glows and I feel myself. Shift into norm I still couldn't move though. Then an Impala walks up to me. I feel it touch its hand to my head. The pain nearly cuases me to pass out. All I sense is darkness Darkness in my mind.


The lion looks around. There were just some strange animals. It stumbles off into the woods. It needed to find a pride. As it left it cuaght a wift of some sort of reptile. It was movieing.

((Thats you cue Defil3r)) ((Also all these ppl did was block my human mind so now my instincts are in control. Yes SC that was in the RR))

Thinking fast, I switched to norm form before they got to me and flew off into the woods. I stopped behind a tree and shifted back to morph, as I took a deep breath. I leaned to the right of the tree, planning to zap the road runner and his allies, but instead became caught in the glare of the road runner.

Greg blinked several times. He was finally coming back to his senses. The first thing he felt was the dirt and leaves of some kind of forest. His hands felt, wet, somewhat crusty. He opened his eyes fully to see blood stained on his hands, the same applying to his mouth. His stomach felt sick as he had just ate somthing rotten. There was a group of morphs standing around the group, one having a gun in his right hand...paw. He turned to what he took as Jenn. "What in the hell has-" He was cutt off as the bear pointed the weapon towards. "Glad you could join us." The only one he saw was Jenn, who was blankly staring at the roadrunner who had just spoke. "Look at the boss." He demanded from Greg, he was still slightly dizzy. "I ain't gonna do sh-" The bear fried off a warning shot in the sky. "Don't make me ask you again..." Greg, who had immedatly caught that they were most certainly not friendly, had been working up his concentration on several dry leaves acroos form him and the roadrunners group. "Fine then, we'll have to this the hard way." Said the bird. Just then a roaring fire burst across them. Jenn shook her head and looked around. The blaze had torn her form his gaze. Greg quickly leaped to his feet and ran off, calling to Jenn. "Run!" She followed this advice, obviously a good idea. An otter morph steped up to the blaze. He took out a water bottle, obviously who had liquid control, and forced the water right over the fire, snuffing it out. The rest gave chase.

I loup along through the unfalimer terrian. This shouldall be plains not these thick woods. I find a spot and lie down to sun when I hear lots of crashing noises. Growling I stalk into the undergrowth. Not long after a white fox, a bird, and a lizard run by. For some reason they looked familer. Then I saw the bear and road runner running after them. The sight of them filled mw with anger. I strike out of the bushes with a huge roar and tackle the bear to the ground. He never stood a chance and I bite into his throat and kill him. The road runner stops. I growl luodly blood running from my mouth. THe bird streaks off in the other direction. I turn around to see the others staring at me. I couldn't explain it but they looked familer. I approach them slowly they seem to cring back just a bit. But then the fox comes forward.....

[Defil3r]

Greg had stopped at the site of Dusty approaching them. If you can say Dusty, not so much as an angry lion. In fact, they all stopped. Ray was ready to fly off if Dusty pounced, and for Greg bark and claws made perfect clmbing. While those two were at a good ready stance to dodge the lion, Jenn stood perfectly still, of course she was scared, but she was confident. The fox apprached the lion. Greg whispered to her. "What in the hell are you doing?" She merely ignored the lizard and walked on. Ray nudged Greg, and Greg glanced at him. He made circles around his head and pointed to Jenn. Greg nodded in agreement. Just when Ray was about to leap at her to bring her away, Greg put on arm in front of him, stopping him. At first she did seem crazy, but now he respected her intentions.

[Neu(t)ral Damage]

My search led me to a wooded area, where there was some commotion amongst the few people there, including one bear that wasn't moving. The others, with the exception of a lone roadrunner, were gathered, with most of the focus on one particular lion morph.
I made a smooth descent and found a nice, shady perch. I folded my wings around me and watched.
