This is a story idea that I've been working on in my free time, but I'd like to also see what people think of it being a RP here. With that said the general idea of the story is as followed:
ROLES
(1)The Dual-Souled/Beasthropes (names pending)
(2)Hunters/Collectors
(3)Helpers
In a modern world there are people who have a gene that, without control of themselves, could ruin their lives and the lives of their own. This gene is one that allows a human to turn into a were-like version of an animal (real animals, please) and causes them to resort to, unless kept in check by the human-side, animistic thoughts. For example, a 13-year old kid with the gene could potentially turn into such a beast and kill his bullies if he gets picked on to the point of breaking down. From there, unless the person can get their thoughts together, they could run off and start to kill other people and things. For the hunters, they are menace that needs to be killed...forever, but others believe that they can be helped and taught to understand and control their impulses. However, what both parties don't understand is that not only does this second form change their body, but-visible or not-it's inside of their minds like a second soul-a dual soul.
ROLES
(1)The Dual-Souled/Beasthropes (names pending)
These people are the star of the RP, and, under most situations, they look and act like normal humans. However, they are able to hear the animal-side of themselves and others, and understand them as though the beasts spoke human words. If, for whatever reason, they lose focus of their beast spirit, it will be able to take over their body and mind until they are able to recollect themselves. In addition, they are able to hold mental conversations with their beast, and the beasts of others-and their hosts.
(2)Hunters/Collectors
These are people who hate the Dual-Souled/Beasthropes for whatever reason and wish to destroy/entrap all of them. Some are funded by the government, but many just regular people who take up arms against them.
(3)Helpers
These are people who understand that the Dual-Souled/Beasthropes aren't intentionally hurting anybody and believe that they are willing to put themselves in harms way to try to help them from the hunters and collectors.
