Shifted Perspective

[SugarNspikeS]

For anyone who's read, or previously roleplayed in https://www.roleplaygateway.com/roleplay/time-for-change , here is a new story within the same world as Time For Change.




Therianthropes, those with the ability to change from human to animal or to a creature that’s something in between, exist. While the majority of humanity remains oblivious to their existence, there are those who seek to hunt the therians as the ultimate game, there are those within the government who seek to use them as weapons in their pointless wars. However, far worse than either of these groups are the collectors. The collectors, often under the guise of running a zoo, keep the therians against their will in captivity. Often they will keep them to sell to hunters, or to the government, but they often keep scientists around as well to study their biology and behavior.
One such zoo that is deep in the therian trade market is the San Diego Zoo. While the true zoo keeper / collector remains hidden and unknown, the scientists working behind the scenes and posing as zoo employees have made their intentions painfully clear to the therians they experiment on. All of the therians in the zoo have been implanted with a small explosive device that can be triggered remotely by the security crew who monitor all the exhibits via security cameras. If any of the therians try to shift to their human or were-creature form during visitor hours their device will be activated and blow up at the base of their neck.
The effects of the experiments on these therians varies from one individual to the next, but it’s always for the worst. Some of the therians have lost their humanity and have gone completely feral, some have gone insane from having their free will stripped away and some are planning a revolt.
