[I thought this up as practice for writing, and it was originally a short story, but I love the concept, so I wanted to put it up here]

Therianthropes- People said to have the ability to shape-shift into animals. Therianthropes have been said to exist in mythology for thousands of years.

The basic idea behind this is very specific, but the story-telling is malleable.

The basic idea is that you're playing a therianthrope, a being who has unnatural skills, the most prominent of which is the ability to turn into an animal, human, or anything in between. The list also includes mild telepathy, enhanced reflexes, strength, speed, and senses. You are limited to one human form and one animal form, and must exist on the fringes of society usually for fear of violence.

In the short story I wrote, Amelia (a cat [alleycat]) and Justin (a bull) decided to become superheroes, using their natural skills. While several others used their unique skills to gain fame, fortune, steal from people... murder. So it shows just how varied a reaction people can have to having this ability.

The story will be fairly open, depending on how people play their characters.

If interested, post here, and please, if you want to join, but would prefer this in the Cave, say so. (not sure if sex/violence will be very prominent, so that's up to you)

well, this is just the interest check, if you want to get it approved early, then ok, but this is just to find who is interested.
