DAMNOS - A STRAY CAT ROLEPLAY

Felifare Laboratories was founded only five years ago by Robert Lange and Desmond Wright, the world's leading scientists studying genetic engineering. They saw a bright future in the world for the creation of bioweaponry. They imagined how easy it could be if weapons were smart enough to operate without human interaction, but obedient enough to listen to commands. These self-sustaining weapons could be placed strategically to roam and care for themselves until sent commands by a higher power. It would put an end to foreign military bases around the world. Not only that, they could be designed to be stealthy and discreet; perfect for spying on other counties.
So with a large grant from the military, Dr. Lange and Dr. Wright built the laboratory on the outskirts of Foxville. They spent days and night pouring over their research and tests. After several failures and misconceptions, all of their hard work finally came to fruition. The first living, half-weapon-half-cat cyborg by the name Dido was presented to the military. She was an intelligence-gathering creature designed to tap into the computer databases of enemy countries. While she was marvelously stable physically, the cat was prone to frequency mental shutdowns and retained the intelligence of the average preschooler. Satisfied with the scientist's progress thus far, the government gave them another grant towards researching mental stabilizers.
After another year of hard work the second experiment was born. His name was Jove and he was also an intelligence-gathering cyborg. Although surgery complications left him blind, he made a 100% accurate lie-detector. Using sensitive receptors implanted in his various organs, Jove could detect microscopic changes in a person's heartbeat, brainwaves, adrenaline levels and speech patterns. His test run with the military was flawless, and they demanded cats they could send out into the field.
Through further research, Dr.s Lange and Wright produced a camouflaging reconnaissance cat, a cat-medic, and several cats with general combat abilities. These creations reaped huge benefits for employees of the company and the nearby communities. Our country could demolish its foreign military bases and return soldiers to their families. No longer did we need to keep up a human presence to assert our authority. Things would not stay peaceful for long, however.
The government got intelligence about a foreign politician rising to power with anti-Urshad views and an affinity for military battles. There was no way we could let him rise to power, or we would see another bloody war on the horizon. The government needed a stealthy, small, efficient coup-de-ta to ensure public safety. They turned to Felifare Laboratories once again. Lange and Wright, however, had opposing views on creating an assassination weapon. Lange understood the need to get rid of this foreign power, lest it rise up to strike us down. He set to work immediately on the plans for a new cat. Wright, however, believed assassination was a poor way of controlling a foreign nation, and left Felifare Laboratories.

What does this split mean for you as a cat? Should you be rescued from the animal shelter by Lange or Wright, you will be made into a weapon, but each with a different purpose. Lange will create you into something the military can use: a weapon, an intelligence-gatherer, a medic. Wright will change you into a "weapon for peace" whose sole purpose is to eradicate the monsters created by Lange. And wrapped up in the middle of all this are the normal alley cats, whose territory is being encroached upon by these conflicting groups. All cats have to ban together for their survival. Or they risk meeting their end in the back of a damp alley by the teeth of their rival colony.
