I will be using Rick Katan, located in my quest thread in my signature.

This RP is closed to me, Chhayawolf, and Martyk. As for posting order...let's say chaos rules. twisted

((Rick Katan - 50% Striped Kukri Snake))

The sound his breath hissing in and out of his lungs was the only other sound, save for that of the river flowing by. He gazed into its depths, the crystal water revealing his reflection. The telltale marking of the striped kukri snake adorned his face; a single stripe starting at either side of his face, weaving over his nose, and connecting to the other side. Several other stripes ran upwards from his forehead, but disappeared under his thick black hair.

Stretching out two meters behind him was a scaled tail, striped red, black, and gold. It lay flat on the ground, unmoving, just like him. He still had some of the clothes from when he had arrived. Unfortunately, that was only his black cargo pants. His feet had lost too much definition for his shoes to provide any solace, and any clothes that pressed tight against his skin just irritated the scales that had begun to speckle his back in patches, the presence of scutes making themselves known on his belly.

He held a clawed hand in front of his face, sheathed in black scales, wondering what would become of him on this island, wondering if he would be as much of a monster as the others here.

Abruptly, Rick looked up, somewhat startled at how stealthily the otter-morph had drifted down to him. She looked farther changed than he, so he had no doubt in his mind that she had stronger instincts, as well as more knowledge about the island, and how it worked. One interesting thing that he noticed was that unlike most---well, all---otters, she had wings. For what reason, he didn't know, since they were obviously too small to fly with.

What he wanted to say and do was to grab a hold of his tail and hold it in front of her, shouting, "Would you call THIS alright? I'm becoming something inhuman!"

However, he knew that he couldn't say something like that to someone who didn't have any malicious intent.

"Yeah, I'm fine," He managed to get out, and that was all he could say. What else could he say?

((Marty Karrell - Thorny Devil - 25%))

((Well this should be interesting, havn't RP'd him anything but 100% yet. Comming up with mental image... now.))

Marty, despite the whole people turning into animals and mad scientist and big brother sort of thing going on, was actually enjoying himself upon the island. Not like he had anything better to do and hey, it was like a free, unending vacation. Sure, he was still a little bummed he wouldn't be learning to create video games from pros like he had signed up to do, but the island had a plethoria of books on everything, so he was certain he could get some learning going.

He floated lazily down one of the larger of the river's islands on a small iner tube he had requesitioned specificly for that purpose. He knew he wouldn't be able to do it forever, after all, he had a fairly good idea what he was becoming. Although the changes wern't too drastic yet, they were definetly noticable. Scales had started to form on his limbs, his fingernails had started to become thicker as they developed into claws and his teeth had sharpend slightly. No of course, changes like this could represent any reptile, but it was the ridge of spines beginging to grow down his back as well as the other spikes dotted all over his body that narrowed the possibilities down to one. Thorny Devil. A nifty little critter Marty had always like the look of. He'd encountered them from time to time in the past...

Marty's train of thought ws cut short as he suddenly noticed his tube was rapidly loosing air.

"Crap, well, that was fun while it lasted." he thought.

Ditching the tube, he noticed he had finally made it to the end of the river, ending up in the lake by the village. Diving underwater, he swam towards the middle of the lake, trying to see how far he could get before running out of air.

Chay smirked slightly at Rick's comment and the way he was standing. "Wasting time is what i do best, its more interesting when you waste is with someone else."

Blinking a few times she followed his claw to what he was pointing at. "I think its another islander, rather new from the looks of it. Maybe he's out for a swim as well." Pushing off from the side of the bank she shook off any mud that clung to her and started swimming towards Marty propelling herself rather quickly with her tail. "Oh yeah, i forgot to tell you, names Chay."

((Marty: I'm going to know you from before. Let's just not ask too many questions wink ))

"Chay..." He muttered, low enough that he suspected that she wouldn't be able to hear it. It was an interesting name, that was for sure. Perhaps he would ask her about her own ordeal some other time.

Then, from the water, he saw the figure surface relatively close to himself. He knew that man.

"Hey, Marty," He said with a slight wave.

(( xd i won't ask TOO many questions))

Chay squeaked out a small bark in suprise not expecting him to pop up so close that fast. Her face scrunched with a slight smile before finally laughing finding Marty to be suprisingly perky for an islander even by her standards. "At least there's still someone that smiles aside from Moreau and his staff on this island. Chay Rawlings." She shook hands, err more like paw-hand with him.

"I may not be sprouting gills but i still have an unwavering urge to take a daily dip. Plus i didn't think i'd be staying very long when i first got here, so i'm a bit gameless." She looked at Rick and then Marty. "Wait, you already know each other?"

"I never really played any Star Wars games, i was more into Kirby, Resident Evil, Parasite Eve and yoshi. Can't remember any others since i haven't had a chance to game for almost a year now."
Chay started scratching her neck with her webbed foot, stopped herself and rolled her eyes before reminding herself to use her hand. "We, well...it used to me. I was part of a geological team that picked up seismic readings hinting at a possible volcano in the ocean. Found out that it was coming from the island, well more below but it turns out we were hailed by a not so friendly group of guards, aaaaand, well it got a little fuzzy after that."
She gives him a look when he said that nothing phases him anymore. "I'm not so sure about that, give the island some time and you might find something that'll make you say otherwise. But i'm not saying that it should, if you stayed this cheerful through the whole process kudos to you. You'd be one of the very few lucky ones."
