Don't worry folks, Brandy will be back up for you viewing plesure very soon. I just wanted to write some updates for her concept and stuff!  ~This is also undergoing a re-write-So what did it take? This dosen't have a much to do with who Brandy is, as who she was... it's mostly here becuase I find it instering. Sex reassignment therapy is an umbrella term for all medical procedures regarding gender reassignment of both transgender and intersexual people. Sometimes it is also called gender reassignment, even though many people consider this term inaccurate, as it alters physical sexual characteristics to be more in line with the individual's psychological/social gender identity, rather than vice versa as is implied by the term "gender reassignment".
Sex reassignment therapy consists of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), various surgical procedures (see below), and epilation for transwomen, that is permanent hair removal on the face and body is accomplished with electrolysis or laser hair removal.
Transsexual people who go through sex reassignment therapy usually change their social gender roles, legal names, and legal sex designation, in addition to undergoing the medical procedures discussed in this article. The entire process of change from one gender presentation to another is known as transition.
For transwomen, who transition from male to female:
- Sexual reassignment surgery male-to-female
- Vaginoplasty The shaping of a neo-v****a
- Penile inversion - the most common form of genital reassignment surgery.
- Colovaginoplasty - a particular form of genital reassignment surgery.
- Breast augmentation is the enlargement of breasts, which can be necessary if HRT did not yield satisfactory results.
- Facial feminization surgeryFor More imformation, check out these links:[ X] [ X] [ X] [ X] [ X] [ X]

You get what you're given
It's all how you use it About the Peafowl
 The Indian Peacock with it's Plume fanned
The peafowl consist of three species of bird in the genera Pavo and Afropavo of the pheasant family, Phasianidae. They are most notable for the male's extravagant tail, a result of sexual selection, which it , which it displays as part of courtship. The male is called a peacock, the female a peahen. In common English usage, however, "peacock" is used to mean either gender of peafowl.
The extant species are:- Indian Peafowl, Pavo cristatus
- Green Peafowl, Pavo muticus
- Congo Peafowl, Afropavo congolensisPavo cristatus The Indian Peafowl
 Side view of an Indian Peacock's display The Indian Peafowl is the national bird of Sri Lanka and India. In Hindu mythology it is mentioned in stories associated with Krishna, as well , as well Shiva, son of Muruganas with those of Murugan, son of Shiva.
The species is found in dry semi-desert grasslands, scrub and deciduous forests. It forages on the ground and nests on the ground but roosts on top of trees. It eats mainly seeds, but also some insects, fruits and reptiles.
The male is called a peacock, the female a peahen. The Indian Peacock has beautiful iridescent blue-green plumage. The upper tail coverts are enormously elongated and ornate with an eye at the end of each feather. The female plumage is a mixture of dull green, grey and iridescent blue, with the greenish-grey predominating. In the breeding season, females can be told apart from the lack of the long 'tail' also known as the train. Peahens can be distinguished from males in the non-breeding season by the green colour of the neck as opposed to the blue on the males.
Peafowl are most notable for the male's extravagant tail also known as a train, a result of sexual selection, which it displays as part of courtship. This train is in reality not the tail but the enormously elongated upper tail coverts. The tail itself is brown and short as in the peahen.Plumage Closeup view of a Peacock's tailfeathers. The male (peacock) has beautiful iridescent blue-green or green coloured plumage. The so-called "tail" of the peacock, also termed as the "train," is in fact not the true tail but the highly elongated upper tail coverts. The train feathers have a series of eyes that are best seen when the tail is fanned. Both species have a head crest.
Many of the brilliant colors of the peacock plumage are due to an optical interference phenomenon (Bragg reflection) based on (nearly) periodic nanostructures found in the barbules (fiber-like components) of the feathers.
Different colors correspond to different length scales of the periodic structures. For brown feathers, a mixture of red and blue is required?one color is created by the periodic structure, while the other is a created by a Fabry-Perot interference peak from reflections off the outermost and innermost boundaries of the periodic structure.of the periodic structure.Other Peacock Images Things will appear here as I get them!

Elda-Chan Kamiki Elda-Chan Sabin, I had a question about the Serum(s).... Let's say our human comes the the island as a female. And the serum they have recived is of an animal that has a very distinct drifference between the look of the male and the look of the female. If our character is female is it/would it be okay/possibale for her to take on the apperince of the males of that species, without changing her gender? No one else seemed to know the awnser... but I figured you may. sweatdrop @- Brivan that is beautiful! *_*
Exceptions might be made if the exotic pattern serum is purchased, so says Sabin, but personally that doesn't make much sense to me >.>Okay...Thanks both of you! Another question: Could it be done if, somehow, a Transgender Serum was obtained at the same time as the serum for the animal? And if I'm being annyoing just tell me to shut up... please. Kamiki There are two different ways TG serums work.
Gradual - which means your SLOWLY change genders over the course of the transformation
Sudden - the gender changes completely after one transformation (can be any stage).
So if it was gradual the dimorphism would also be gradual - probably a mix of female and male colors/patterns.
if it was sudden - it would mostly likely be female colors/patterns until the sex change happened.
But either could probablly be flexible.

Hey Elda,
Sabin and I had a little brainstorming session <3
It really doesn't make sense that a female would get male peacock colors until the DNA changed. Estentially - the animal DNA wouldn't have a 'gender' - all DNA has the capacity to be male or female. Which chromosomes that effected coloring would be turned 'on' or 'off' by the gender of the subject (whether or not there was a Y chromosome or not).
But we got to brainstorming. Obviously you can get a Transgender serum for your subject which would allow for the make peacock markings when her gender changed.
BUT, if you truely wanted to a female peacock with male colors, we don't know how willing/flexible Brandy's past is but - if Brandy was BORN a male and actually -had- a sex change in her life before the island it wouljd work. Basically, sex change operations are surgical with hormone therapy, but the DNA, obviously, can't be altered.
Basically, Brandy would live her life as female. And if she's a true post-op transexual, she's be -physically- female as well. But when injected with a serum that had sexual dimorphism, it the DNA is sitll chromosomially male, so male colors would grow.
This also makes sense ICly. Moreau's the type of a** that would blow the lid about Brandy's past by purposelly giving her a serum to one of the most dimorphismed birds on the planet.
Again, this is just an idea. We don't know how developed your personal history is, but maybe this can you thinking :3
Sincerely,
Kamiki
EDIT: Keep in mind, true transexuals would not consider themselves their birth sex at all. By all means you would be playing a woman character. Just the birth sex would different from her physical sex now. The only other IC thing that might come up is that Brandy would know she couldn't reproduce, like all transexuals. Not that we expect, being real time, that the islanders would be breeding anyway.
EDIT2: To clarify - if you go with this concept as well she would KEEP her phsyical female self (genitals, breasts, personality, hormonal, etc) throughout the complete transformation (well, she might lose her breasts but that would be the birds fault), just she would get male peacock plumage.
