2024
A science lab exploded.
Four scientists were killed in the explosion, and the remaining three found that numerous chemicals had spilled into a container and somehow survived the explosion. Upon testing the mixture, they identified the chemicals and recreated it. The scientists tried to find out what the solution did by testing it on a rat, but nothing happened. They weren't sure what to do with the chemicals, but then one of them had an idea:
What would happen if they mixed animal DNA with the chemicals?
They mixed lizard DNA--that being what was on hand right then--with their chemical solution, but before they could test it on the rat, it splashed back onto two of the scientists. They immediately mutated into strange, lizardlike creatures. Still vaguely humanoid, they had rough scaly skin, small sharp teeth, hooked claws, and tails. The remaining scientist, instead of being terrified, was fascinated by the mutation. Unfortunately, he was very greedy, and instead of sharing his discovery with others, he killed the mutant scientists, and kept the secret to himself. Over the next few years, the lone scientist experimented with his chemicals, testing them on human victims instead of animals, and becoming ever greedier and more twisted in the process. Eventually, for no specific reason, he created a huge amount of his mutation chemical, and combined it with DNA from hundreds of animals.

2027
The apocalypse.
The lone scientist, having killed hundreds of animals for their DNA, created an enormous bomb, filled with enough mutation chemicals to spread across the entire continent. When he set it off, he was killed in the initial explosion, but thousands of people were mutated across North America. The chemicals somehow seeped into the ocean, and over the years, the mutation spread over the entire planet.
~~~
2030
The wasteland.
For three years now, the world has been a barren wasteland, only the strongest and the cleverest surviving, searching for the few oasisis remaining in the endless deserts. The endless search for water has driven many mad, adding to the dangers. But now, a strange sickness is spreading, traveling from person to person at an alarming, almost impossible rate. The illness is caused by traces of the mutation chemicals remaining in the water, and the only cure lies in the minerals of the oasis waters. To save the mutants, a select few mutants with strange and unique abilities must find each other, travel to the oasis, and find the cure. These mutants have never met each other however, and the hardship they have encountered has hardened them, to the point of hostility rising to impossible heights. They must overcome their misgivings and travel the wasteland, dodging insane mutants and sickness, to reach their goal. But, if they catch the sickness, they will slowly weaken, and eventually they will die.

Need more boys, you say? I just counted. And you were very right. There are very few boys.
So here's another.
Name: Asahi Reo
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Mutation: Wolf
Weapons: two katanas
Personality: Clever and cunning. He has a flair for the dramatic, but you'll never catch him smile. He does not take matters lightly, and rarely ever laughs or jokes. A bit on the cold and calculating side of things.
Appearance: He has the head of a wolf, with a long snout, large ears, and jet black, shining fur. His eyes are an icy blue. His arms and legs are covered in a thin layer of fur, but are a tan. His skin is copper toned. His appearance is reminiscent of an Egyptian god's, with an animal head and human body. He wears a ninja like outfit made of cloth, with pieces of metal sewn in for protection. Very, very tall. He has a long, black tail.
Special Powers/ Abilities: He can howl, bark, and growl like a wolf and he can also speak like a regular human. His hearing and sense of smell are far greater than any humans', and he can run for far longer and far faster than any human.
Backstory: TBD, I have a few parts figured out. I doubt he'd ever tell anybody though.
(June 24, 2019 - 3:17 pm)
Let's start!
(June 25, 2019 - 11:19 am)
(June 25, 2019 - 2:21 pm)
We should start, but I don't know how to that!!! Nyx? Can you get this thing going?
(June 26, 2019 - 12:04 pm)
I have an idea on how to start so I will.
Asahi~
Another one of the mutants at the camp has fallen to the disease. Her family buried her this morning.
This is the eleventh mutant to have died due to the disease at the camp.
I plan on leaving. Evidently the entire camp has been contaminated and it is no longer safe to remain here. I am packing my belongings in a small leather pouch. I have two canteens of water left, which should be enough to reach the nearest oasis if I run quick enough.
I set out and begin my journey.
------------
I figure that maybe somebody could run into Asahi? I'll introduce Nikolas later.
(June 26, 2019 - 3:01 pm)
I meant to add that Karen and Logan can both shapeshift into wolves.

Silvia~
A small black spider skitters over a rock, slowly making its way along the bottom of a low cliff. Yeah, thats me. I crawl along, not really doing anything, simply crawling. I shift into human form. Or, as human as i get. I grasp the rock face, and my spiderlegs unfold from my sides, helping me cling to the stones. I scramble upwards, and as i reach the top, i stop, and drop back over the side so that only my ebony eyes show over the edge. Two wolves, one brown-furred, and one gray with a silver sheen, are standing there.

Logan~
In wolf form, i stand atop a cliff by Karen, watching the sunset. I don't think she notices how i'm edging closer to her, but jsut before our flanks touch, there's a scraping sound near the edge of the cliff. Karen jerks away.
"Did you hear that?" she whines.
I growl back. "Yeah, i heard it." Karen turns to the source of the sound, and before i can see what it is, she jerks forwards and swipes with her paw, sending whatever it was back down the cliff. We both shapeshift back to human, and peer over the edge. There's a black-skinned, spidery, something hanging from some sort of sticky thread.

I'M BACK FROM VACATION. I was really excited about this, so I'm joining. NoBoDy CaN sToP mE, especially because joining's still allowed. XP
Name: Gamma (Short for Amalgamate)
Age: Unknown, looks to be about 18 or 19. Regenerates like her body isn't letting her die. It still takes a while to heal itself to a living point, though. Two-three days.
Gender: Female
Mutation: Gamma was hit by multiple different types of DNA contamination. Therefore, she transfromed into a humanoid, black wolf with a colorful, hood-like frill. Tentacle-like appendages, which she calls 'protrudences', sprout from behind the hood and extend the length of Gamma's body. Bone spurs poke through the ends of each tentacle, turning them into deadly whips. Her tail is long and silky. Secret gills are hidden under her hood, behind the tentacles. Surprisingly beautiful/majestic, for all that's happened.
Weapon(S): The bone spurs, her teeth and claws, and two scimitar-polearms.
Personality: Introverted, prefers to be alone but can tolerate socializing so long as the people around her are sensible. Mostly indifferent, but those who are her friends are treated well, as she is loyal. Gamma is also courageous, majestic, commanding of respect, and feirce.
Appearance: See Mutation
Special powers/abilities: Some sort of twisted immortality, can breathe under water, fairly strong and agile, but she already was before the mutations. Also has heightened night vision (not great though) and can speak/understand human, wolf, lizard, and some fish languages.
Background(optional): I haven't figured that out yet.
Other: @Sybill do you want to ship Gamma and Asahi?
(June 27, 2019 - 12:01 pm)
Oh, wait. I forgot to mention that Gamma can turn her hood black by flushing it with her blood (which is also black), and she can harden it too, so it becomes a type of shield.

I wander around as a cub and then I find a spider. I stalk it. I've been getting better. It doesn't notice me. Then it turns into a humanish figure! they must be a mutant. I watch in awe as it ascends the cliff. I try to follow but it is too steep. I walk around and find an easier route. I hop from ledge to ledge to make it to the top. The spider person comes back into view but they have stopped suddenly a brown furry paw swipes at it sending it down the cliff a ways. Two humanoids look over the edge. They remind me of wolves.
I stalk toward them but I catch a rock and the brown one turns and locks eyes with me. I freeze. She doesn't really look friendly. I turn back into a mutant and draw my spear swallowing the lump of fear in my throat

Kaylee~
The camp is not quiet tonight, curled up in a ball in my tent I listen to the sounds of feet...and paws. I don't mind the noice, I haven't slept since the first death in the camp. My senses are all on high alert, even though none of them will protect me from the spreading epidemic. Actually, my immune system is probably not functioning properly due to lack of sleep, which would make me more susceptible to the disease, not that I care anymore.
I crawl out of the tent and out in to the camp, a lot of us are up. I see two wolf-like figures sitting on the cliff, I'm not sure if they're from the camp or not. Not far below them is another figure, a smaller one, definitely a feline. Maybe a lion mutant. Aways down the cliff is a spider-like girl, she appears to have fallen from the top of the cliff. I don't know who any of these mutants are! Up at the top of the cliff the wolf mutants snarl at the lion mutant, she (lion mutant) holds a spear, but the wolves have the higher ground. I'm worried for her, she looks really young, maybe even younger than 13! The spider girl hasn't moved, is she hurt? My breathing starts getting out of control and I feel dizzy!
I curl up on the ground and clutch my legs to my chest, my breathing is wild and loud, I'm not sure but I think the figures at the top of the cliff has noticed me. I start to lose feeling in my fingers and toes, then I black out.

Willow~
It has been almost two days since I left my camp, and there has been nothing but endless desert since then. Still, I am constantly afraid, and have not stopped walking, not even to sleep. I did not want to leave camp, but the disease was spreading so quickly that it was my only option. Every part of me is exhausted. I want nothing more than to drop down and rest, and I am about to when I spot cliffs in the distance. My pace quickens. I can just barely make out figures standing on the cliffs. Running closer, I see two mutants with wolf features, a spider-like figure, and a lion-like figure holding a spear. I slow down and approach the cliffs cautiously.
(June 27, 2019 - 10:33 pm)
I just realized:
you can RP as both a Splatoon kid and the "Dog" from Fullmetal Alchemist.

Karen~
I start toward the spider girl. "Who are you, Leggy?" I snarl. Leggy hisses back at me.
"That's not your problem, Furball. I was just minding my own buisness, and you knocked me off the cliff!"
I wince. She's tecnically right, but that doesnt mean i have to go with it. "You were spying on us!"
"No I wasn't--"
A stone clattering down the cliff face causes us all to freeze, and turn to the source of the sound. Its a young lioness cub, but she quickly morphes into a girl, barely twelve or thirteen, and draws a spear. Leggy stares at her, and then back at me and Logan. I suppress a laugh. "Look, Logan, Leggy thinks the girl is with us."
"She's not."
"I know that, but its still funny-- wait! Get Leggy, she's getting away!" Leggy had suddenly sprang down the cliff and sprinted away, heading towards a nearby camp. Logan and I follow, and as we draw nearer, it seems that Leggy was running towards a crumpled form on the ground.
