"
Change is near"
The world is not as it seems. Therianthropes, those with the ability to change from human to animal or to a creature that’s something in between, have been living among humans for as long anyone can remember. Most humans are completely oblivious to this and those that aren’t are viewed as crazy. There is a government agency that is aware of the therians and has been watching them for years, the department of paranormal research and defense, or DPRD for short. They would like to get their hands on them and dissect them or worse, create an army of were-creatures to send into battle to save human lives. There are also hunters out there that believe these creatures to be a threat to human kind and have taken it into their own hands to try to eliminate them.
If this weren't bad enough, the therians themselves don't get along well with those outside their own species. The territory lines are enforced by numerous patrols and the neutral zones, are the only safe places for those who are trying to protect the therian way of life from the humans who wish to to destroy it.
I'm not saying the voices are real, I'm saying they have some good ideas.
