"Do you not think it's dangerous, keeping them all in one place?" One of the scientists asked, standing and looking through the one-way window into the room where there were around 50 patients in medically-induced comas. The room behind the window was full of screens showing pulse rates, brain activity and monitoring the vitals of those sleeping in the other room. The scientist who spoke was a woman, in her mid-sixties with silver hair scraped back in a ponytail at the top of her neck and held by a plain black hair clip. Aside from the white lab coat with two pens tucked into the chest pocket, nothing about her appearance was notable; she wore sensible shoes, loose suit trousers and an olive green shirt. Her brown eyes were framed with glasses that pinched her nose, and she had a few wrinkles and moles on her face. The other scientist in the lab, and the one to whom she had spoken, was thirty or so years younger, and he looked across at her - tearing his blue eyes away from the computer screen for the first time in over an hour. "They're all asleep, and this glass is three inches thick. They can't do anything." He replied, scratching his head and accidentally tousling his light brown hair. "I didn't mean dangerous for us," she replied, surveying the ward. "I meant dangerous for them."

In a parallel universe, science has been developing in leaps and bounds. It has developed so far that cross-species genetics is no longer an idea, it's a reality - albeit a reality still in beta-testing. Synthetic DNA (sDNA) allows for a human genome to be created using a combination of animal and human DNA: by enucleating a human body cell and replacing the nucleus with that of an animal. Further genetic engineering takes place to ensure that the cell would not be rejected by the human body, then electrical impulses stimulate growth of the cell. sDNA is then administered to the human subject through blood transfusions and injected into muscles using eppy pens similar to those used for allergies.
Of course, cross-species genetics is only at the beginning of it's life and it's by no means perfect: simply put, those involved in beta-testing are in medically induced comas because of the physical changes that came along with the treatment. These physical changes come from the animal that their sDNA was mixed with.
Operation Zebrafish has been criticised from huge numbers of people: animal protection activists, religious extremists (from multiple religions), and general members of the public who think that the experiments are a crime against nature. As a result of the physical aspects of their altered genetics, the patients are unable to rejoin society. But since they have no memories since before they woke up in the hospital, the subjects are curious about what the outside world is like...
Rules 1. I may or may not appoint admins throughout the course of the role-play, depending on whether I think your role-play ability is good enough. 2. Admins give three warnings before a temporary ban. Based on the reasons of the warnings, I will say whether they get another chance or not. 4. No Mary-Sue’s or Gary-Stu’s. 5. Please use as correct grammar and spelling as you can. 6. You may join at any time, there is no limit to people joining. The more the merrier. 7. No flaming, ubering, god-modding, etc, okay? It’s tiresome, and you will receive a warning. 8. You MUST fill out a CS. Filling out a File is optional as it is information the character doesn't remember. You may want to leave it blank to allow yourself more freedom in the role-play, the choice is yours.

Nickname: Kestrel A.ge: 19 Personality: Generally reclusive, though she is known to offer a sarcastic comment whether required or not. She's usually regarded as being rude and mean, though this mostly stems from her being untrustworthy after not being able to remember the first 19 years of her life. She can be kind and sweet when people deserve it, but she's a harsh critic of who deserves her nice side and who doesn't. Kestrel tends to just wander from appointments with doctors to appointments with scientists, with breaks for recreation and eating. Her recreational activities generally include reading, drawing or painting - activities that have little chance of her damaging herself and that she can do alone.
Appearance: Kestrel stands at about 5'5, and she's slightly too skinny for that weight. She has pale, lightly freckled skin with a few darker freckles on her face that draw some attention. She has a small nose and slightly thin lips, and usually wears loose shirts and skinny jeans. Her eyelashes are naturally dark, and her eyes are large. She wears no make-up and has no piercings - though she does have marks in both eyebrows, her nose and ears that would seem to point to pre-genetic alteration Kestrel liking piercings. She has no tattoos. She wears a plain silver ring on her left index finger and her right thumb. Her eyes are large, and this is where her sDNA takes over. Her eyes (while human) are a bright, inhuman amber, like an owl. Sprouting from her back are white and black wings, most likely from a snowy owl. They have a wingspan of 12ft, though aren't yet developed enough to carry her. She has scars all over her body from bone surgeries: her bones are hollow, so she is still being experimented on to fix this in a way that means she can still fly when her wings develop. sDNA: Human and owl |

(hoping this rp would eventually pick itself up tbh
i know ur using a bird oc already but... im also going to be bird)
Nickname: Sunny A.ge: 17 Personality: Sunny is generally light, cheerful, and strangely optimistic, despite everything that has happened to her. She's curious, nosy, and tends to snoop around places where she isn't supposed to. She's also somewhat "feral", and tends to act less human, often screaming when she is bored and for most of her communication, she uses chirps and bird noises rather than words. She can speak, but for some reason, she chooses not to do it often. Appearance: Sunny stands at an average 5'3", and is unusually skinny with little to no fat on her, not even breasts. Sunny has tan, smooth skin. Her face has a round, cute shape to it, with a button nose, large eyes, and slightly plump lips. Her eyes are a complete black, even the sclera, and feathers are visible on her back and her sides. Her wings, which has replaced her arms, are a soft brown, and since her bones are hollow she is able to fly, though for not much long. Other than her wings, her feet and legs are similar to a bird's, her knees bend backward and are claws, which allow her to climb easily. sDNA: Human and songbird.

HI so technology is failing me right now and I'm typing this from my phone which hates Roblox and has already deleted everything I tried to write in this post before so im going to try and be quick: 1) forgot to mention that people who have been genetically altered were volunteers so might want to figure out what their motivation was (were they ill or homeless or yoloing or whatever) 2) my character has white hair with black blotches like a snowy owl 3) I did not realise age was no longer blocked, thanks for pointing it out! I'll keep it in mind for next time 4) definitely accepted, probably start to more when there will be (I hope) more people! I'll probs be online from 18.00 GMT 5) thanks so much! That's so nice to hear! I get you not joining though, it's not for everyone :)
Okay hurriedly posting this before my phone has a hissy fit again so sorry if there are grammar/spelling issues! If more people joined I'd also really appreciate it! |

Nickname: Honey A.ge: 18 Personality: Honey is carefree, laid-back, compassionate, and reserved. She is generally friendly, but isn't very social. Interestingly enough, she is able to make spot on growls, hissing noises and meows. She is easy-to-irritate and vengeful and can easily come off as passive-aggressive. She is actually pretty sensitive and a little hot-headed. She tends to walk on all fours and sometimes behaves like a wild cat. She is good at climbing, has fast reflexes, and is a fast-thinker. Appearance: Honey is 5"6 and rather curvy, could be mistaken for being a little chubby. She has the coloring of a golden tiger, she is pale though marked with light honey- gold-stripes all over and has a golden 'glow' atop her skin, giving her that golden tiger look. Her skin also has an odd fuzzy feeling to it; not like hair, but kind of like peachfuzz though only a tad bit longer. She has long, pointed, white nails and oddly-shaped fingers. She has a round face shape accompanied with a slightly wide nose, full lips, and round upturned eyes. A tip about her is that the result of the addition of the golden tiger sDNA has caused a very small cleft lip palette to form in her lips. Basically the bottom of her upper lip was slightly lifted to form a cat-like mouth. As for her eyes, she has huge pale honey irises that nearly take up her sclera. She has wavy honey-brown hair that goes to her mid-back with unnatural creamy-white strands here and there. She has small golden ears and a long, striped tail. She wears an orange short-sleeve with black skinny jeans and a fuchsia cardigan. She is also wearing white flats. sDNA: Human and golden tiger (sorry, sort of tired. if something doesn't make sense to you, then TOTALLY don't blame me, lol.) |
