Poll: New universe concept!
5 years ago
General
Thoughts, and various mad ramblings. Hello, everyone! I know it's been a while since I've regularly posted, and I'm attempting to remedy that, though it may take me a moment. Things are still pretty crazy for me right now. I certainly want to finish In The Mist Of The Erie Isles, so that series still has priority, but I recently conceived an entirely new literary universe. First, some explanations for the one person who doesn't know my work and stumbles upon this journal...
In the "Macro Universe", anthros and humans have coexisted since the dawn of time and can interbreed, albeit with Elder Scrolls rules (the child is whatever the mother is, regardless of the father's genetics), and the anthros have NO special benefits from their genetics whatsoever, with minor and obvious exceptions, mostly to looks and size. This is the universe used in most of my one-off stories, such as Blue Heart, A Two-Edged Sword and In The Shadow Of Mount Moriah, but also full books like This Forsaken World, Lacuna Blue, and Unity (which I still need to finish), as well as 98% of my eroticas. Other stories have micro universes, like The Seventh Realm, Hejira and Erie Isles, none of which have shared lore or races. Every single one of them stands alone.
That being said, I came up with a new concept that I might wish to explore as it's own thing. It matches our own world in every way with one major exception. In the mid nineties, while everyone was panicking over cloning, scientists in a private lab were trying to create a chimera, in order to grow human organs in an animal for transplant. They begin by splicing human and rabbit DNA, which is reminiscent to the 2003 experiment where Chinese scientists did the same thing. However, instead of destroying their work before the embryo could be brought to term, in this universe, they let it develop. Instead of a rabbit with human blood or eyes, they inadvertently create the world's first anthro. This creature grows as a human child would, but with very obvious animal features. It has increased intelligence but cannot speak and struggles to write. The world panics when the experiment is finally revealed, when the creature is an adorable toddler. As the creature seems to have emotions, however, showing fear, joy and sadness, activists prevent its termination, even though many rally to destroy the abomination. By the new millenium, the lab responsible for the first anthro, which they nickname an "AdvAnimal" (I'm still looking for a more marketable name), has begun creating thousands more, in almost every species possible. By 2010, not only is the first AdvAnimal now almost an adult, but there are tens of thousands of new creatures that are also nearly adults. The public opinion changes when they see how human-like these creatures are, and what they are capable of. Their destruction is completely removed from the table by all but the most radical. Even though I myself am a devout Christian, I would use this group to poke fun at religious zealots/extremists. By the current year, AdvAnimals, potentially with a new and more marketable name, number in the hundreds of thousands or even low millions, and are available for purchase by the average person in all 1st world nations, but primarily America, Canada, Japan, Britain, and the Netherlands, because why not? Once fully grown, they still cannot speak, making only simple noises, nor can they properly read and cipher, but they are drastically superior to regular animals in intelligence, able to learn many tasks and to operate certain kinds of equipment. Because of their sub-human capabilities, they're not considered humans, and therefore have limited rights, and this could be a topic for discussion. Also, because they share human DNA, they'll be able to breed with humans, though this likely hasn't happened yet, to anyone's knowledge, because the first generation are still under 25 years old. This could also be a topic for discussion. This concept WILL NOT be a book series, but a universe of it's own, with both serious and erotic stories taking place in it, and with many varying characters. It would need a folder, and I would commission artwork for a thumbnail so it's clear at a glance as to what universe the story is in. I already have some ideas for both real stories and cheap porn.
Now for the poll. Does this sound like a good concept, or is it trash, and am I trash for conceiving it? Be honest. :3
