Johnathan Pennyfare is in the prime of his life. Young and well-to-do, he's fighting to find his place in rural Sussex as England is caught in the throws of the Industrial Revolution. Good thing he has the love of beautiful Emma Talbot to ground him. Their names will be on everybody's lips once he proposes to her at tonight's social.
He has only a single task before leaving for the manor house. Some newfangled scientist is seeking his patronage. Unbeknownst to Johnathan, the frightful Doctor Robenson is more frantic for funds than he appears. In an effort to ensure Johnathan's support Robenson infects him with his latest invention, an elixir made from the great British symbol, the lion. Johnathan must now support the foul man if he hopes to find a cure.
Now not only must Johnathan dance the intricate social ritual of marrying good Miss. Talbot, but also hide the physical changes as he slowly transforms into something that would be better seen in a freak show.
For perhaps a first time ever in a story a person is drugged willingly to sleep...

The drugs were just a reference to some odd things I uncovered when doing research on that time in history. From what I can tell a range of what we'd think of as hard drugs were far more commonly used back then. Though I can only guess their effectiveness (and hopefully addictiveness) was lower as they were not nearly so pure.
This is the only reference to them.
As for brining out the animal in him... thankfully, this isn't the only reference to that...

I'm aware of the dangerous flirtation with narcotics and snake oil as "medication" around the turn of the century. Addiction was a very common problem with those so called medications.
Now you have the furry in me wondering if Jonathan will be capable of spreading this 'curse?' or if it can only be passed on through technology.
I do have to admit that the thought of a pride of were-lions living in a grand English manor is appealing to me.
