There isn't really an introduction befitting for this.
These are simply cats and dogs who wish for a better life... to no longer be pricked and prodded at by two-legs in white pelts.
With help they can escape, and then with more help they can continue to help others escape from the lab... and then learn to live with whatever happened to them and what it did to them.
So join if you wish... and become a part of our odd, but uniquely strong group who simply wish to find peace.
This clan is full of cats and dogs alike, the two species coexisting together. Thanks to the serum that was used on all of them, they can understand the speech of each other.
All breeds are found here, and all the members are either born, or rescued from the lab.
Everyone has something that makes them stand out, a power, an odd physical feature, doesn't matter, they simply have something unique about them.
Because of the experiments that are done upon going to the lab, eve those who are born into the clan can have powers and odd features because the serum didn't just effect the blood stream or nerves, but changed the very DNA of those it was used on.
Those who were not strong enough to survive the serum shifted and changed... they mutated into a horrible and hostile creature that has n remorse for anything and no memories of who they once were. They are used by the scientists to protect the lab and to get rid of any of the animals who may try to escape. Many of the creatures in the lab don't actually know they exist, simply believing that those who didn't get through the serum had died. Upon escaping though they found out the truth.
Activity. I know that everyone in this world has a life and right now more than ever, you may have trouble finding time to get on. Please just try to be on as much as you can because I believe this clan has some real potential as long as the rp can be kept up with. If you are gonna be gone for a while then just tell me, if you have characters in the plot I'll ask if someone can rp them while you're gone, if not then I'll simply leave them where they are and you'll still have your spot when you come back. Realism. These cats and dogs are lab experiments. They have been injected with a serum that mutates them into new beings. For those who react negatively, they transform into bony, thin creatures with faces that split open to reveal long, sharp teeth that can tear through flesh in an instant. This clan is in no way realistic but I also don't want you to go to crazy. You can have some odd hues to fur, a character who has bio luminescent markings or can even change the color of their eyes depending upon their emotions. Still, do not have rainbow colored fur or powers that enable them to control someone else's character. If you want them to have a power than can cause them to take control of someone, then you must clear that power with me and you CANNOT take advantage of said ability. As long as you don't go crazy when making your characters, you'll be just fine. So give them horns, wings, scales, a power over an element, the ability to foretell storms or births! Go crazy! But not to crazy.
Forum Rules. I expect ALL forum rules to be followed here. If you cannot do so then you will be removed from the clan and reported to a moderator. I will not warn you if you are not following the forum rules, as those are rules that should be followed no matter what and if you cannot follow those, then I cannot trust you to follow the rules that I have made specifically for the clan.
Literacy. Yes, not all of us are the perfect writers or can always come up with entire paragraphs to type up. Still, I hope you can try to type at least three sentences per reply per character. Please also try to limit grammatical errors so that replies can be understood; though one or two is of course okay as I have some now and then as well. After all, we can't be perfect.
Bloodlines. In a clan that is just starting out, bloodlines are super important for anything and everything. I want bloodlines established early on! If two cats have a design that is similar then go ahead and ask if they can be siblings. The same goes for if two different cats have powers that are alike as the similar DNA would have reacted on the same level in the two cats and given them similar features or abilities, though this is not always the case in family, as siblings and family can have completely different abilities or features from the serum.
Drama. The entire backbone of any and all rps! I absolutely love drama in a roleplay!! I love to be a part of it, I love to see it happen, and I absolutely loves when it causes a standing effect on those that it occurs strongly too. That being said, if you want something such as a fire or flood to happen, or an attack of the mutant creatures from the lab on the camp, then I ask that you clear it with me first. Anything else though, such as your cat running into a fox, or two cats having a fight and ending up hating one another, go right ahead!
Kind. Do NOT let any fights or sour emotions between characters leak out and cause you to be rude to anyone on here. Whatever happens in the rp is purely that, an rp. It is not real and should not affect your relations outside of the rp strand itself. If you do have something to say that is rude about another person, then please alert me and I'll set up a private message and see if we can resolve it without a fight. On the page itself I expect kindness and respect toward everyone. And no hate either! Everyone, no matter their gender or sexuality, is allowed here. And if you have an issue with that, then just don't join.
Fun. Have fun! That is the most important thing ever! What is an rp without fun? If you don't have fun doing something then you won't want to continue on with it so go ahead, let loose, start some drama, and simply have fun. And don't forget to put LAB EX in your joining form as the password, just so I know you actually read through the rules.

WIP wip wip wip wip wip wip WIP wip wip wip wip wip wip The forest hums with life all around me. I twirl about, gazing up at the canopy, searching for the birds that sing sweetly. The sun breaks through the cracks, lighting up the dirt path ahead of me, decorated with outgrown roots, wildflowers and fallen leaves that crunch beneath my bare feet. I trudge on, taking in the fragrance of minty grass and the damp earth. Each breathe is like water, fresh and cleansing, flowing freely into my lungs.
In this forest I am with my tribe of wood and leaf, among the giants who's roots hug the earth. It is a place of ancient souls, of the creatures who dwell with the sweet sounds of moving water and bird song.
Upon the forest floor lie trees of yesteryear, fallen in storms long forgotten. The seasons have been harsh, stripping away the bark and outer layers, yet rendering them all the more beautiful. They have the appearance of driftwood, twisting in patterns that remind one of seaside waves; even the color of the moss is kelp-like. They are soft, damp, yet ones fingers come away dry. The oaks are several houses tall, reaching toward the golden rays of spring. Birdsong comes in lulls and bursts, the silence and the singing working together as well as any improvised melody. The Lab
Surrounded by thistles, and half-hidden behind a red and green tangle of rampant ivy, no one should ever have entered the dilapidated property when stumbled upon, deep in the woods.
The door was bolted from the inside and there was no glass in the window frames. The air within was dust-filled and stale, and all was dark and gloomy.
The house had that spooky charm, it was dull and quiet, cobwebs everywhere, chandeliers suspended from the ceiling and that odd knock no one could seem to explain.
Along the outside of the home, a tall, concrete wall surrounded everything, barbed wire spiraling out along the top and even down the walls a bit, making the home seem even more decrepit and sinister.
Within the walls of the old home sat cages upon cages full of odd looking creatures that had been mutated and put there. A single press of a button would release them and allow them to attack any intruders or threats. Some of the more well trained of the beasts walked around patrolling, each one having a designated scientist who took care of them.
Deeper inside the structure was a single door. The door was solid metal. Nothing was going to budge it. The surface was flat and shiny like the outside of a stainless steel refrigerator. There was no handle, no lock, no hinges, nothing to get a grip on. The top and bottom, even the sides, lay so utterly flush with the frame that there was no hope of jemmying it open. Only the pass-code could successfully open this door.
Beyond lay a sterile white staircase that spiraled down into the darkness of the ground before ending in a wide room with several others branching away from it.
The desks and benches in the laboratory could only be described as archaic. They were like something out of the 1950's. But all of the modern equipment in it was state-of-the-art. There were stainless steel centrifuges and PCR machines. There was a huge walk-in refrigerator and several water baths. There was a double door autoclave and two enclosed areas with flow-hoods. There was a walk-in shower for chemical decontamination and several canisters of gases. My guess was that it was some kind of biological science laboratory, and this guess was correct... in a way.
Several of the rooms were filled with more cages that were stacked all the way to the roof, machines blinking and sounding off. Cats and dogs lay in whimpering, shuddering masses, some hooked up to different mechanisms and others even tied up and being pumped full of some kind of serum. The entire place was a horror show, and the creatures that lay atop, past that thick metal door, had once been mere dogs and cats just like these ones.
Humans prowled around in white coats with wooden boards and needles full of liquids. They pricked at the creatures, ran tests, and made it where many within the facility wished they were dead instead of going through this torturous experience.
The only time when there was any form of peace was once every day... though the days could only really be counted by the intake of serums and the feeding times. The humans would all suddenly leave and the lab would fall into a terrifyingly still silence, only split open by the occasionally beeps of the machines and the soft murmurs of speech between both dogs and cats.
This needed to change... the lab was horrible, and everyday either led to more of the animals coming back with strange powers or features, or them not coming back at all. The Forbidden Woods
The southern area of the forest was one of those places which had no palpable reason to exist. It was a creaking shack created by nature to serve as a reminder that things could always be much, much worse. The unnatural, choking mist that swirled and sprawled on the forest floor was the first thing that spoke of a strange sort of wrongness. The sickly white substance seemed to possess liquid properties which only reminded of the maggot-like texture of the eyes of a dead cat who had been forgotten in his cage for a few months, ready to burst at the slightest touch. The smoke made no sound however and only parted to swallow up your paws as you marched upon the giant dead, festering eyeball of the forest floor. The sound of mushy and dead leaves whispered from under the skin of the mist. And then, within the center of these woods, lies the lab that still gives so many of the clan horrific nightmares.
Vibrant Lake
The small path on the northern side of the territory widened into a multicolored beach with every size of rock - from boulders big enough to sit on, to grains that got stuck between your toes. Beyond was a flat lake, the far shore a thin line in the distance growing into a sheer cliff face.
Looking through the waters of the lake was like peering though perfect glass, unsmudged by the sticky prints of two-legs The stones at the bottom were as many hues of brown and grey as there are on a painter's wheel, likely more.
All along the edges of the lake, the spring flowers are chaos in perfectly choreographed order, they are art and science, yet also with a magic that reaches to the core. In the silence of the woodland they are the song for the eyes, the brilliance this world needs. Even under cloud they are sunshine, a deeper hue yet there in full form.
Turquoise River
On the eastern side of the territory, the river is a ribbon of living turquoise, boldly flowing amid the green of the forest. No matter the chatter of the trees it is steady, welcoming, refreshing. On quiet days it can be heard to whisper its wisdom, on stormy days it is lost to all but those who listen closely. The river always talks, always speaks the wisdom of the water to anyone who treasures its musical words. Even on the rainiest of days it can heard beneath the splashes, a sacred melody, always moving, always present.
The river has a strength that is reflected in the trees. It flows on with confidence, taking the form of the river bed, billions of drops moving together. The community of trees stands tall, trunks reaching into the blue above, light filtering through leaves like perfect stained glass.
The river flows with perfect consistency, an artery of blessed water. It feeds this place, quenches the thirst of the mighty beings rooted to the rich soil. Together they are perfection, the water of life and the community of flora and fauna.
The Forbidden Stones
Settled only a short way from the sight of the lab, the boughs of the cemetery twist like contorted bones, writhing in a silent scream. Beneath them lie the cold stones, each marking a dwelling place in which no-one is home. I'm never bothered by the howl of the wind until I must traverse this place, then it's all I can hear.
The cemetery is a jumble of stones, as if the burial places were chosen by throwing the shovel in the air and digging where it landed. They sit at jaunty angles to one another, no two of them the same shape or size.
All that is left of the fine people of this cemetery is the decrepit stones. Under the soil is nothing but more soil, even bones don't last that long in the damp ground.
The Lone Cottage
The cottage looked as if it was straight out of a fairy tale with a happy ending or a picture book for little kids. It looked like many things. It was rusty, old and dusty, but rather welcoming. The whole house was made of dark red bricks. A tiny stove, two small wooden chairs, a circular table, a not-so-large mattress and that was quite it. Hedges and vines and honeysuckles and so much more. A green gate with paint falling off was the door to the property. Then came a narrow dirt path with small pebbles, a tiny pond with lily pads and a few ducks, maybe a frog or two. A two-meter hedge surrounded the property. Vine grew up the archway and the arched wooden door with brown planks. The grass was green and yellow, scorched by the hot, blazing sun in the summer. Two huge trees, one with red and orange leaves. One of the trees was hollow. A family of squirrels lived there. Occasionally, a woodpecker or an owl would come to visit too.
A single elderly human lives here with a fox who seems both tame and wild, wise and idiotic. The fox is the one who taught the cats and dogs how to come together and survive as a clan, and he is one of the only outside friends of the clan. The elderly woman with whom he lives being the only other.
The tree is the grand poem of the living world, a beauty that encourages the spirit to dance though words, to make our odes to it's branches that spread starclan-bound. And in the strong light of the new day it creates a kiss for the senses in those moving leaves, the thousand green hues and the soft whispering in the wind.
And settled around the great trunk of this ancient tree was a clearing of grass and flowers, a thin stream flowing around the edges and the wall of oaks and bracken rising up as though fighting to protect the ancient oak.
The dens of the camp are often unused, many preferring the sleep out under the stars unless the weather took a turn.
When this happened, dens were indeed used.
-The leaders of the clan, one a dog and one a cat, share an old hollow that was carved out from between the roots of the oak, the entrance shielded by a large bush of roses.
-The deputies of the clan had their own den as well, and just like the leaders, one deputy was a cat and one a dog. The den for this pair is settled in the boughs of a huge bracken bush that was made even bigger by the pair and then reinforced with vines and mud.
-The healers of the clan make their home within a beautiful clearing that branches off from the main one, a line of tall stones braced against each other to make a rocky 'hallway' of sorts that leads over the small stream around the main part of camp and into a smaller clearing that is blanketed in moss and flowers. A hollow tree to the left is used for the nests of the healers and to store away the herbs, while the other nests are nestled beneath a stony overhang that juts out from a sudden cliff on the other side of the clearing.
-The Warriors of the clan make their home with a completely paw-made den of huge stones, vines, mud, and brambles. The ground is dug away to make a dip inside to give a bit more room for the taller inhabitants of the clan.
-The Trainees of the clan sleep within the remains of a fallen oak, an oak that is dubbed the Ancient's Daughter and is also used by the leader for clan meetings. The Trainees of the clan are seen as the next generation of life and protection and to be housed in the Ancient's Daughter is an honor given to them so that they may be given strength by the spirit of the forest so as to become strong fighters and hunters for the clan that is their home.
-The Queens and Kits of the clan are sheltered in the only underground den. The entrance is marked by a tunnel found beside a huge, solid gray stone that has a large flower bush beside it. The den was dug out by only a single member of the clan, a huge dog who ended up with abnormally huge paws and claws that aided him in digging it quickly. The tunnel goes down for only a few lengths before opening up into a huge den of sorts that has been decorated with feathers, stones, shells, moss, and is even lit up by fireflies that were caught and put into the den to give light, the bugs trapped in there by the powers of the only permanent queen.
-The flower bush that sits beside the stone which marks the nursery is used to house the elders of the clan, who are greatly respected and cherished by all within the camp as it takes great strength to make it to such an age. |

Playingcloud || Zz || 19 moons || Bisexual and Female
Playingcloud, though young, is a born leader who is determined, wise, and ready to put her life on the line to save those she cares for. Her fur is semi long, thinning out just slightly along her paws and underbelly but not by much. Her fur is a deep, ebony black that stands out brightly against the white walls of the lab and makes her seem like a single pocket of shadow. Her eyes are a very dark, deep blue that seem to hold so much wisdom than this she-cat's measly 19 moons of life could have given her. Like many of the others in the lab, the serum caused her to have a higher intelligence and to form some peculiar features. Sprouting out from her head are a pair of horns that curl backwards and are a pure, night black. The funny thing about these horns though is that she can make them glow in the darkness to give her a way to see. Saying that she-cat is invisible is ironic, as that is actually the ability she gained from the serum. Once focused and calm, the she-cat can turn herself invisible to all, but if she looses her calm then she looses control of her ability again. A quiet but kind soul, Playingcloud is one of the main inhabitants of the lab that is plotting an escape, and she plans to use her ability to do so.

Raven's Swoop is a huge, large bodied dog with short, sleek fur that shines silver in the moonlight. His paws, ears, and tail are all a dark brown and a splash of white flashes across his chest and his face. Bright green eyes stare out from his face, contrasting greatly to his darker colors and standing out even past the white splash that adorns his features. Small, raven black feathers grow out of his ears and along the base of his tail, giving him the first part of his name. The second part comes from his ability... his wings. Every since he was injected with the serum, this dog grew a pair of huge black wings that have swirling white markings beneath along with speckles of white as well, making it look like a nebula of white and causing him to blend into the night sky from below. A stead fast and determined soul, Raven's Swoop is never one to give up and he wants nothing more than to help his sister escape from the lab.

Grimcreek || Zz || 17 moons || Gay and Male
A tom who was changed by the serum in a gruesome, horrible way, this is one cat you would not guess to be gentle. He is though. In fact, this tom is the gentlest being in the entire clan and has a heart of gold and the paws of an angel. His fur is smooth and sleek, laying in a swirling pattern along his mangled, scarred body. His legs, tail, and neck are all twisted around and around as though they were twisted like a collection of string and are now ready to untwist at any moment, yet they don't. His ears are gone, leaving only two gaping holes where they should be, much the same as his eyes, which have also completely deteriorated because of the serum and have left only two, gaping holes of darkness. Despite this though, the tom is still able to see but only by heat signatures, and he still has perfect hearing. His fur is a bright white with black stripes along the twisting areas of his body. This tom is endearing, kind, caring, soft hearted, and is the best healer ever to be known, better even than Brindlefall, who was a healer before she was captured and brought to the lab. He surpassed Brindlefall quickly and his abilities seem to grow, as though he knows exactly what he's doing no matter what.

Brindlefall || Zz || 48 moons || Pansexual and Nonbinary

This she-cat's eyes are pale blue with flecks of green near the irises and shine with a deep exhaustion. A kind and caring soul, Brindlefall was part of a clan before and was a medicine cat for them. Sadly, she got captured one day and brought to the lab where she has been for about five seasons now. Having once been full of energy and light, this she-cat has become a shell of her former self; filled with sadness and exhaustion that spans back over what feels like decades to her. Still determined to do her best though, she strives her hardest to help where needed.

The outside half of each eye is a light blue that darkens as you move toward the iris while the inside half of each eye is a pale amber that darkens the further from the iris you gets. This cat is different than many, switching between genders depending on how they are feeling each day. A loyal and hard working soul, this cat is ready to put forth the effort to do what's right. They love to hunt and absolutely adore kits, part of this adoration coming from the fact that they lost their first and only kit when they were captured and brought to the lab. The kit didn't make it through the serum and ended up turning into one of the mutant creatures.

Cometpath has the ability to manipulate the shadows. Cometpath is rather manipulative. Especially in regards to her sister. Often forcing her to do things, even if her sister doesn't want to. She pushes others past their limits, and will often comment that they are worthless if they end up collapsing. She has been this way since her brother died, believing that Sunnywander was responsible. The two-legs often also took her the most compared to her sister to test the limits of her manipulation on shadows believing she could get used as a weapon. She is very cold towards others, never showing signs of warmth or what she deems as weakness.
Cometpath is the sister to Sunnywander and Specksting(deceased brother).

Hunting Petal || Zz || 32 moons || Asexual and Female
Hunting Petal is a long-haired chocolate lab though she also has some black and golden coloring along her face and tail. She has heterochromia and so her eyes are two different colors, with her left being a stormy blue/gray and her right a bright leafy green. The only abnormal feature on this girl is that her left ears is twisted and fray. Having an abnormally high sense of smell and hearing, this dog is the best hunter in the clan. The only other odd thing about her is the fact that the serum made her light as feather even though she doesn't look it. Hunting Petal is kind and considerate to everyone, except for Grimcreek. She knows that the tom is kind and gentle but he still creeps her out either way and, on instinct, she is often guarded and somewhat rude to the tom. The best hunter, but not fighter, this she-cat's weightlessness makes it very easy to just throw her around in a fight.

In fact, this boy literally looks as though he's made of dirt, and the texture of his fur feels like dirt as well. His eyes are a bright amber that make it seem like a pair of gemstones are staring back at you from the earth. The only thing that isn't earthy about this dog is his nose and paw pads, which are yellow and black and patterned like the fur of a leopard. Thanks to the serum, this dogs paws became larger and his claws changed shape and became both longer and stronger, now looking more like shovels than claws. A big dog by all standards, Leopard's Nose was the one who completely dug out and reinforced the nursery when the camp was made. A quiet dog, don't expect much of conversation when with him. As quiet as the earth itself but also holding just as much knowledge,. this dog listens closely to anything and everything and is one of the only members of the clan that can understand two-leg speech. When angry or guarded, rocks will also begin to grow along his legs and back as though he's gaining a reinforced armor, making it where he is a very tough opponent, unless you know his weak points.

Petalflurry is... an odd dog. Her fur itself is the first that stands out, with there being long, short, and mid length patches of fur all along her. The long patches are white, the short patches are orange, and the mid length patches are brown, making her look like an odd form of calico. Black lynx markings spiral and swirl all along her fur, ringing around her face in an odd way that mates it look like she has an oak leaf on her face is the markings are connected. With pale blue eyes that have green and gold patches in them, looking i to her eyes is a bit odd as well, seeing as the whites of her eyes as a gray hue instead. To describe her personality I merely need one word, bipolar. Let's go just a bit deeper though. A ball of stress, this girl can switch between emotions in the blink of an eye, making it where talking to her is quite the odd occurrence. One thing that always snaps her back to being happy and kind though are kits, pups, and kips as she just love the little ones of the clan.

His tail is merely a short stump, with a small bit of black at the very tip. This tom doesn't really have anything special about him, unless you count the fact that he's completely immune to both heat and cold. A jumpy and stressed out ball of nerves, never creep up on Sheepshine unless you wanna deal with one of his famous panic attacks in which he breaks down and may try to attack you. Other than that small fact, this tom is kind and tells the best stories. Never ask him about the lab or he will simply shut down and won't snap out of it for a few hours.

The wings are pitch black with orange markings on the ends. Leekjay has the ability to manifest wings. Leekjay is very absent minded. The tom suffers with short term memory issues. As expected, he will often forget when he gets in fights with others. He has forgotten his own family at times. Leekjay had a mate, Goose, but the tom ended up becoming a mutant. Leekjay had found him in that state and had tried to talk to his mate but ended up getting attacked. This trauma was the cause for his short term memory issues. He still remembers Goose but not what had happened to his mate.
Goose(ex-mate/mutant). Leekjay is cousins with Lotusbird.
Lion's Song || Zz || 19 moons || Pansexual and Male
Lion's Song is a huge dog, in fact he's been genetically bred of two dog breeds, the Tibetan Mastiff and the Great Dane, and stands almost four feet tall. Having been born in the lab and kept in an entirely separate room from anyone else, the only reason anyone knew this dog was alive was because of his singing. At night, this dog would sing the both vivid and beautiful but also terrifyingly depressing songs that would end up filling the entire lab with sound. His DNA was specially made and tweaked throughout the gestation period of his mother that he is the largest dog in the world now. He was a c-section and the only survivor of his litter, the others having died shortly after birth. His fur is short but fluffy all across his body, but the lion of his name comes from the huge collection of long hair that suddenly sprouts up around his head, neck, and chest, just like a lion's mane. The dog's fur is a base color of pale gray while his mane is a dark, night black hue. Ginger flecks dot this boy's paws, tail, face, and flanks, while black stripes of color swirl along his back, legs, and hindquarters. With shining, pale blue eyes, Lion's Song is a dangerous but beautiful beast who has the voice of the ancestors, with a deep, honey filled singing voice and a deep, resonating speaking voice. A kind and considerate beast, at first glance anyone would assume that this dog is a horrendous monster that would kill you as soon as look at you, but in truth he's loving, kind, and the best cuddler. Having never been around another creature, except for the scientists who experiment on him of course, this dog lacks social skills and can be a bit nervous around others. Because of the serum and his modified genes, Lion's Song has a higher endurance and barely needs to sleep or eat, his body naturally supplies him with energy and nutrients. When he does eat, it isn't meat, as meat cannot be digested by his body and so he eats plants and berries instead.

She dislikes being touched regardless of it being kind or not, after the countless tests and experiments she went through due to the two-legs. She is sociable however, but only when she is in the mood to interact.

Alert Wave || Zz || 12 moons || Bisexual and Male
Alert Wave is a black husky, but instead of the normal black and white colorations, this dog has it inverted. With beautiful, liquid blue eyes, this boy is brave to a fault and ready for anything. Alert Wave has hyper active nerves, an enhanced sense of smell, hearing, and sight, and raised energy levels, making him alert and on guard at all times. Not only this but because of the serum he was given the ability to breath underwater, and has a slight webbing between his toes. A kind and kindred spirit, this dog will protect those close to him to the best of his ability and will always fight to do what's right. Though he's happy and kind, this soul has been known to wander off by himself to be alone sometimes, as the memories of the lab will become to much for him and he simply needs to give his mind time to reset itself. If he needs to be found during this time, then check the bottom of the lake as that is where he will normally go.

Jumping Snow || Zz || 8 moons || Pansexual/Polyamorous and Female
A small Yorkshire terrier, Jumping Snow is a pure white, curly haired dog with pale brown eyes. She is full of so much energy that she constantly jumps and runs around. She is a mediator though despite her energy, knowing when to step in and when not to, leading to her being very helpful when it comes to disputes between members of the clan. She was only a tiny puppy when taken to the lab and she almost didn't make it, leading to her having some odd features. To start with, small lamb horns sprout up from by her ears and the corners of her mouth are torn open, allowing you to see her teeth and mouth even when her jaws are closed. Her back left leg is twisted and disfigured and she has no tail whatsoever; and to complete it all, she is able to understand human speech.
Open
Cinderwhisker || Zz || 7 moons || Bisexual and Female
This she-cat has short, gray fur that is split apart with glowing red, orange, and yellow colored, making the she-cat look as though she's made entirely of embers. Her eyes look like the literal embodiment of the glowing embers of a fire, making it seem as though a fire is blazing inside the she-cat, and actually, there is. Because of the serum, this she-cat's organs, blood, and skin rose in temperature, though her inside are the hottest. When she eats food, it cooks in her mouth as she chews and her saliva has been known to accidentally start small fires now and then. She is impervious to fire because of this and is extremely susceptible to the cold, having less energy and strength when she gets cold. Cinderwhisker has a fiery temper to match her fiery insides, being an angry, hate filled she-cat toward the scientists who destroyed her life and the lives of so many others. She lost her parents to the serum, both of them mutating into horrible creatures that tried to kill her before being taken and moved upstairs, though Cinder just believes they're dead. A closed off cat, she doesn't speak much but if you do get her to open up and become your friend, then you'll find a fiercely loyal, truthful, and kind hearted she-cat who merely doesn't understand what has happened to her.

Pebblefluff || Zz || 29 moons || Pansexual and Female
Pebblefluff is a medium length haired dog that is covered in black and white speckles, spots, and patches along with having a gray undertone to the white. Her eyes are beautiful, with a light blue that borders that white with a slight silver hue towards the irises and along the edges. Scaling can be seen along her paws and legs, and her pupils are slits instead of circles. This girl was... absolutely tortured inside the lab. She was one of the most experimented on dogs and was even forcefully bred with several dogs and cats. The latest forced breed was with a cat and, for the first time, she has not miscarried her litter and is mere days away from delivering. She wants out of the lab before it happens and is ready to try anything to escape. Her mind is a mess and she has scars and scratches along her sides and stomach from experiments and her miscarriages. A guarded but motherly spirit rests in this one, with her having a kindness toward the younger generations but being guarded around any her age or older, as she was forced with many that were in this age range.

Rarefern || Zz || 84 moons || Asexual and Female
Rarefern is a small, short-haired cat with a mixed tabby coloration. With ginger, brown, and white tabby markings swirling back and forth across her fur, she is quite a beautiful sight. Her eyes shine out a leafy green with a blue coloring beneath it, and the entire being of this cat seems to permeate cold. Able to lower her body temperature until she is capable of making ice, this she-cat is as cold as her powers. Guarded, rude, and never wanting to admit when she needs help, Rarefern was almost left behind in the lab because she didn't want to admit she wanted to go with the others when they escaped. The only one she seems to be a bit nice with is Playingcloud, who wouldn't give up on her and stayed until Rarefern finally admitted she needed help to get out of the lab and didn't want to be alone when she got out.
Open Outsiders
Vix || Zz || Unknown || Unknown and Female
Vix is a fox, a silver fox to be exact. Sadly, you can't tell what color she had been because of the multitude of wounds that cover her body, making her almost entirely bald because of the scarring. Her eyes are a wise, icy blue hue and this fox has one horrible past. This fox was born with the gift of voice, being able to speak in the tongue of all creatures, and so also being against eating meat, only choosing to eat leaves and berries. The fox risked her life to learn everything she could about how all creatures work, even going so far as to try and befriend a clan of cats to learn how they are. Sadly, a fire started and she was horribly burned before then being blamed for the fire and chased away. Still, she found out how it worked and was the one to help Playingcloud and ? establish Vertexclan. She lives with an elderly woman in the Lone Cottage.
All family is long dead. |

Back Kick - Explosive surprise move to catch opponent from behind. Judge opponent's distance from you carefully, then lash out with your back legs, taking all weight on your front paws.
Belly Rake - A fight-stopper. Slice with unsheathed claws against the soft flesh of the opponent's belly. If you're pinned down, the belly rake quickly puts you back into control.
Front Paw Blow - Frontal attack. Bring your front paw down hard on your opponent's head. Claws sheathed.
Front Paw Strike/Forepaw Slash - Frontal attack. Slice downward with your front paw at the face or body of your opponent.
Killing Bite - A death blow to the back of the neck. Quick and silent and sometimes considered dishonorable. Used only as a last resort.
Leap-and-hold - Ideal for a small opponent facing a larger opponent. Spring onto opponent's back and grip with unsheathed claws. Now you are beyond the range of the opponent's paws and in position to inflict severe body wounds. A group of apprentices can defeat a large and dangerous warrior in this way. Watch for the drop-and-roll counter move, and try to jump free before you get squashed.
Partner Fighting - Warriors who have trained and fought together will often fall instinctively into a defensive position, each protecting each other's back while fending off an opponent on either side. Slashing, clawing, and leaping together, battle pairs can be a whirlwind of danger for attackers.
Play Dead - Effective in a tight situation, such as when you are pinned. Stop struggling and go limp. When your opponent relaxes their grip, thinking you are defeated, push yourself up explosively. This will throw off an unwary opponent and put you in attacking position.
Scruff Shake - Secure a strong teeth grip in the scruff of your opponent's neck; then shake violently until they are too rattled to fight back. Most effective against rats, who are small enough to throw. A strong throw will stun or kill them.
Tail Yank - Grab your opponent's tail and yank it with such force that your opponent is thrown off balance.
Teeth Grip - Target your opponent's extremities – the legs, tail, scruff or ears – and sink in your teeth and hold. This move is similar to the leap-and-hold except your claws remain free to fight.
Upright Lock - Final, crushing move on already weakened opponent. Rear up on back legs and bring weight down on opponent. If opponent does the same, wrestle and flip them under you. This makes you vulnerable to the belly rake, so it takes great strength and speed.
Half-Turn Belly Rake - Turn onto your side, slip under the opponent's belly, rake it with your claws, then swiftly turn back onto all fours out from under your opponent.
Badger Defense: Leap over opponent, turn on your back legs and bite opponent's leg. Used only when fighting badgers.
Duck and Twist: Simple defensive move. The cat ducks then twists around, rolling over onto their back, and then springs to their paws.
Jump and pin- Complicated move. Leap backwards, and bounce off the wall. With precise accuracy, land on the opponent.

Playingcloud
Lab
With Open (Ember34 and Hawkeyes258 )
Getting Ready for Escape The lab was cold, dark, the small echoing noises of the machines beeping and crying out here and there the only noise for the past hour since the two-legs in the white coats had left. With the time having passed chatter had been small here and there, others chatting through the bars of their cages as they wished. Singing had begun to ring out just recently from someone who had one of the most beautiful voices but no one had ever seen the owner of it.
From within one of the cages of the main room came a pale glowing as a black furred she-cat sat still, looking out of the cage toward the doorway that she knew led into a hall with the stairway that led to the door which held their freedom beyond it. For moons now the molly had been working on and perfecting her newfound abilities of both her glowing horns and her second power, to turn invisible. When completely calm the molly could will herself to disappear from sight, a gift that would allow her to sneak out, shut off the camera system, and free everyone before the white pelted two-legs came back in a few hours. She had no idea what was waiting for them but she knew one thing, she wouldn't leave anyone behind. |

All good) Leekjay-Lab-Playingcloud A tom walked around in his cage. He had finally gotten put back out after some accident he had. He didn't remember what it was, but he did know that it didn't make the white pelt twolegs very happy having to tend to him till he was better. The tom looked out at the cages, he needed to see Goose, to let the other know he was all better now. But the other's cage was empty. He noticed the glowing from another cage. He could only think of two that it could be. "Hey Playingcloud," he called out first. If it wasn't her then it must be....Sunnywander? He couldn't recall if that was the right name or not but he knew Sun was in there somewhere. He waited for an answer. |

Playingcloud
The Lab
With Leekjay (Ember34 ) The molly turned her head slowly, her dark, deep blue eyes catching with Leekjay's as a small smile crossed her features and she dipped her head in greeting to the tom. "Hello Leekjay, I hope your day has not been too bad. Of course, that won't matter after tonight. Everyone will be safe and free after tonight." She took a slow, deep breath doing her best to keep her heartbeat calm even through the fear and excitement she felt at what she knew she was about to do, of the events she was about to set into play.

Leekjay-Lab-Playingcloud "It has been alright," he said. He was looking forward to the other cats plan. Maybe on the way out they would find Goose. He hadn't seen his mate in a long time, but he could catch faint traces of his scent so he knew the other was alive. "When are you thinking of putting it into place tonight?" His tail flicked curiously behind him. He wondered just how many they would take with them. |
