It was a hundred years ago when a small island was found off the eastern coast of Japan. It was always shrouded in mist, and seemed to appear and disappear at random. Because of it's mysterious nature, they named it Talisman Island. They had no use for it, and because it unnerved them, they put out a ban for anyone to go near it. Going against that law, a scientist hired a private boat to take him out and he set up a laboratory there, testing out drugs and injections which he made on animals. For the longest time, he thought he was making a breakthrough, making the animals that were previously unable to be tamed as obedient as a well trained dog. And then it all backfired, when he went too far and gave each animal he was testing on an injection of something that would humanize them.
He woke up to footsteps that night. He sat up startled, wondering how someone had found him. As he turned on the light, a dark blur came around behind him, and he felt a scalpel held against his throat. An almost hissing noise whispered to his ear, a noise that reminded him of his morphed bats. Except this time, it wasn't just a noise. It was a voice.
Light's out.
He was found on the shore of Miyagi the next morning. Rumors began to appear over the next year about the island of the mists. People exaggerated, had millions of different versions, but what was actually going on was ten times worse than anyone could even imagine.
The animals were no longer animals. They had a human gene, and could slip between the forms. Some were monsters were similar to those of ghost stories, such as the vampires and werewolves. Some were harmless, like the Quetzal, a giant, brightly colored bird. And some just wanted to be left alone, like the Fahren, known in simpler terms as the were-cougar.
The worst of all was the Chimera, a legendary beast brought to life. It is said to have the head of a lion, the body of a goat, and a snake for a tail, though what this live creature looks like, not even the monsters on the island know. It hides away, and those who it has recruited only see it in the shadows of night, and an unlit cave. Those evil doing creatures who work for it recruit others, and execute it's plans. What is it aiming for? Domination of Japan, and then, following that, the whole world.
And now, after years, they have grown in forces and in intelligence. They're different and split, yet at the same time, the same. The humans know nothing, yet, anyway. It will only take time before they find out and their world is turned upside down. How much time, or how little, depends on what happens, when it happens, and who it happens to. The only rule is to survive. And to survive, you must question everyone, and trust no one.
RP era and type - Slightly futuristic, upcoming war, then war
Are beings other than humans allowed? If so, what type? - Vampires, Werewolves, Mermyds, Fahren, Quetzal, Mistwolf, Sphinx, Minotaurs, Centaurs, Griffin, Fairies
Is magic allowed? - the 'magical' parts are altered genes only, so no.
Other - Staff positions will most likely open up once more members come.
