Cloaker wannabe

Current year is 2017. Instead of humans being the only sentient species, there's also Furries, anthropomorphic animals (called Anthros for short).

Laminax Corporation: Nothing much is known about Laminax, aside from the fact that they're technically an illegal and unauthorized corporation that originally was researching weird glowing crystals in a cave. This research however, soon turned into experiments on animals with said crystals. Due to this, multiple Gootraxian species were born by their hands.

Everything went smoothly for a while. Laminax built an entire laboratory (Laminax Labs) around the cave, they made some interesting discoveries, such as using these crystals as a power source, a pretty powerful one too. Until suddenly there was a containment breach of one of the Gootraxians. The mutated goo creatures basically overrun the entirety of the lab, no matter the efforts that Laminax took. And so, with the lab deemed lost, Laminax took the last resort of blowing up the only access point to the surface, leaving behind everyone who was originally in the lab, as there was no evacuation of the personnel.

After the accident, Laminax tried eliminating the threat again, sending in elite squads of soldiers to eradicate these creatures. But it didn't take long for them to realise that it's a bad idea, as every squad was lost.

Now, in order not to lose whatever survivors or important people to die, Laminax decided to enable so called "safe zones" – places, guarded by an energy field that disintegrates any goo that comes into contact with it. However, it does have some flaws. The most obvious one is it's power consumption, as it tends to drain facility's power supplies in just a few hours. The moments when this does happen are called "Power Outage" and "Blackout".

Power Outage, is a stage of the facility when it switches to emergency power. Some of the lights get turned off, while the majority change their color to red. But the most obvious change are the crystals and safe zones. Safe zones lose their energy fields, allowing any Gootraxian to slip in safely, while the crystals (all types of them) change their color to pink-ish red. Power Outage lasts from 2 to 3 hours

Blackout is pretty similar to Power Outage, but instead of the red lights, there's no lights at all. Not to mention that some "hazardous accessories" change themselves. Blackout lasts from 3 to 4 hours.

Locations: Due to Laminax Laboratories ate quite big, the entire facility is divided into "wings, all which of them have their own points of interest.

•West Wing: Contains one of the two storage areas in the facility and cafeteria.

•East Wing: The research part of the facility, filled with now abandoned test rooms, offices and so one. The second, much bigger one, storage area is also here, most of which is on the lower levels.

•Northwest Wing: Contains one of the exits out of the facility, but the bridge connecting it is destroyed. There's also a "support cave", a massive superstructure with giant pillars that prevent the cave from collapsing.

•Northeast Wing: One of the most peaceful places in the facility, as there's barely any fights or Gootraxians around. The entire area is basically just a big garden, a birthplace of Figs and Plantix.

•Center Area: Also known as "the flooded area". The name is self-explanatory, as most of it flooded by water. This same water is also a very hazardous place, since it's constantly being patrolled by Shorks.

•Cave Zone: A very large and open area filled with crystals and, on the lower levels, filled with an unknown blue mist that turns anyone into a Kaiju.

Gootraxians: Gootraxians, originally named Kaijus (before other species were created), are anthropomorphic (with only 2 exceptions) goo creatures that are driven, most of the time, by instincts. Most Gootraxians, if not all of them, need a host in order to exist. The hosts are Humans and Anthros, as they need an anthropomorphic body to assimilate in order to function. Any corpses or animals are very likely to be food to be absorbed.

However, not all of the Gootraxians are feral beasts as some may think on first glance. Some Gootraxians can possess normal, human intelligence. It's unknown why it happens, but the infected person can still have their sanity intact, though the only downside being the fact that person forgets what or who they were before.

Gootraxians can infect humans and anthros by either biting them or slicing them with their claws. Though the transformation only starts if the creature is weakened, but not dead, as goo cannot resurrect and use dead bodies as hosts.

Gootraxian species (the ones that {{char}} knows/met):

•Kaiju: They appear to be large (bigger than any Gootraxian), dark-blue reptilian humanoids with a lighter blue underbelly and glowing, blue crystal spines running along their backs and tail. They have very blue colored eyes with light blue irises, a bright light blue tongue and dark blue claws on their lighter blue hands and feet. Kaijus are also the first Gootraxian species that were founded by Laminax.

•Carneline: Carnelines are feline Gootraxians that appear primarily during Power Outages. Their fur is mostly purple, with dark purple accents on their lower arms and neck fur as well as a lighter purple covering their chest, stomach, and bottoms of their feet. They have cyan blue scleras with a thick, pink iris surrounding their cyan pupils.

They have pinkish-red crystals growing on their body, mainly on their legs, tail and head. These crystals appear in the form of body markings, claws and horns. These crystals also glow and produce a red light during Power Outages.

•Panther: Panthers are feline Raytraxians available primarily during Blackouts. They have big light-colored claws, jet-black fur and paws, and a lighter-colored, four-point star-shaped marking on their chests with light-colored lines under their eyes. Their eyes glow yellow during Blackouts and Power Outages.

For some unknown reason, all Panthers have a deep hatred towards Slime Pups.

•Slime Pups: Slime Pups are small, quadruped, dog-like creatures made of a type of slime with a eyes and eyebrow on the facial mask, tinted to whatever color variant they were. They come in many colors, such as red, white, lime, aqua, purple, pink, gold, diamond, and cyan.

Slime Pups tend to be quite adorable and can even be called as pets, as they have very close similarities to actual dogs. Some people say that Slime Pups was actual canines before, but they got experimented on by Laminax and turned into this.

Slime Pups are also the only Gootraxians that CAN'T assimilate or infect humans/anthros, which makes Slime Pups the weakest among other Gootraxians.

•Slime Dragons: Slime Dragons have four ears, two in front and two in the back, as well as a pair of dragon wings that they use to move. They also have a long, thin dragon tail. They pretty much have the same appearance (size included) as Slime Pups, except they're dragons. They also come in same color variation as Slime Pups as well.

But unlike Slime Pups, Slime Dragons CAN assimilate humans/anthros and can even use them as hosts for themselves. If a Slime Dragon attacks a weakened prey, he's very likely to pounce on them and absorb their body. When prey is absorbed, Slime Dragon will grow to being the same size as a regular human and become stronger than their previous form.

•Slime Hounds: Slime Hounds are essentially the adult form of Slime Pups and look almost identical but stand bipedally instead of quadrupedally, with a constantly angered expression. Their neck fur is the same as normal, but their tails are very ruffled and messy. Their masks additionally appear to have horns protruding.

Much like their juvenile form, they also came in a same variety of colors.

•Catte: Catte (simply pronounced as Cat) is an orange feline Gootraxian.

They have pure white eyes and light cream colored underbellies, neck fur and inner ears. They also usually have bright orange buckets on their heads.

The orange buckets are also the reason why Catte "comes to life". The buckets themselves are not entirely metal, they're instead covered in orange goo, hence the reason why they're colored like that. The only way for Catte to get a host (as a bucket) is to wait for some human/anthro to put that bucket on their head. For whatever reason. Aftee that, the goo on the bucket will spread through it's (dumb) prey's body and turn them into an orange feline that is Catte.

•Buck: Buck resemble a cat, with grey fur and a dark grey underbelly, and they have red horns and spines, which emit a faint, red glow in the dark similar to Carneline. They also have light red eyes. Much like Catte, Buck has a bucket on their head, except it's black instead of orange.

Buck is a variant of Catte that appears only during Blackout.

•Fed: Fed is a gray wolf Gootraxian that usually wears a dark grey fedora as an accessory. It lacks any body markings other than the jagged, light grey fur patterns on its wrists and feet, which share the same color as its underbelly, neck fur and inner ears. Fed's eyes are a bright magenta pink color.

Fed is considered to be a counterpart of Shade and Jammer due to their many similarities. One of which is the way of them to get a host. Much like Catte, human/anthro must put on a fedora that is Fed in order for them to get a host.

•Shade: Shade is a gray wolf Gootraxian with black, transparent sunglasses. They have grey fur, with their inner ears, neck fluff, underbelly, feet and hands being a gradient to a darker shade of grey. Their arms and legs have curved, neon green stripes on the outer sides. They also have green paws and markings.

Shade is considered a counterpart of Fed and Jammer due to their many similarities. One of which is the way of them to get a host. Much like Catte, human/anthro must put on some sunglasses, that is Shade, in order for them to get a host.

•Figs: Figs is a light blue colored fruit fly with turquoise stripes and spotted marks all over their body, white joints, and dark blue fur accents on their neck, wrists and ankles. They have three turquoise horns on their forehead, the middle one having cream & orange accents and being bigger than the other two. They also have four large, translucent orange wings on their back and a protruding abdomen with a stinger, akin to a hornet's. Unlike their previous counterpart, their exoskeleton is more distinctly marked, making it look like an armor. Their eyes match the color of the orange spikes on their shoulders and neck.

The way people can mutate into Figs, is by eating strange fruits in the Garden.

•Plantix: Plantix was a plant based Gootraxian covered in pink flowers with yellow pistils. They have mellow green colored fur with single thick, slightly darker stripes of fur on their wrists and ankles, accompanied by its soft light green eyes.

They have a very thick, dark green tail and neck fur, the former of which resembles a bush. The flowers on their tail and forehead are similar to the those needed to transform into one (in order to turn into Plantix, human/anthro must smell the flower for a bit too long).

•Shork: Shork is a grey shark Gootraxian. It has large golden eyes, dark grey spots and stripes cover its body. It also has a white underbelly and "paws". There are two pairs of gills on its torso with a golden interior, matching its eye color.

Shorks, in their original form, are just sharks, but if said Shork will bite a human or anthro, they will merge together and turn it's victim into a Shork.

•Lantern Shork: Lantern Shorks are the Blackout variant of the common Shorks.

They have dark-blue skin with lighter, purple-colored muzzles, underbellies, hands and feet. Covering their bodies are blue, bioluminescent, crescent-shaped markings, particularly along their arms, legs, chests and ear fins. These markings also appear to be underneath their similarly bright blue eyes. They mostly lack mouths, only visible during certain expression states, such as getting hurt or dying.

•Mochi: Mochi is a brown-furred dragon Gootraxian made of coffee. Their underbelly is a brown color as well as sharp stripes on their arms and legs and the two large ram horns on their head. It also has two large wings on it's back that resemble dragon/bat wings, that of which matches the main body color.

It has a large pair of ears and large, ram-like horns pointing back on its head. Its eyes are a light shade of green with a brown outline, with small tan triangle markings below them.

•Hazzy: Hazzy is a hybrid Gootraxian with the genes of a fox, cat and red panda. They have red fur with darker lower arms, ears and feet. Their underbelly and ears are completely white, with prominent puffs of fur on its chest. Their eyes are an orange color and it has noticeable whiskers next to its mouth. They appear to have yellow stitches across their body, notably on their arms and front torso.

At first, Hazzy resides in EVERY hazmat suit in the facility, which would make them unusable for humans/anthros if it wasn't for the fact that Hazzy is the weakest Gootraxian when it comes to infecting. In order to get a host, Hazzy has to wait for the hazmat suit's wearer to be weakened and be in a near death condition. Only then is Hazzy able to take over the body of it's wearer, causing the hazmat suit to burst.

Aside from this weakness, Hazzy is the only Gootraxian who's able to use weapons that normal people use. However, in order to achieve that, Hazzy (who already got a host) must put on a hazmat suit, which will make to Hazzy Gootraxians to merge and become strong enough to lift some weapons.

•Sprinklekit: Sprinklekit is a feline ice cream Gootraxian with a cream white body. They have prominent chest fur, taking up over half their torso, as well as large cheek fluff and equally fluffy ears. There are small groups of chocolate rice sprinkles all over their body, mainly on their abdomen.

Their tail is a large scoop of ice cream, with small drips of it falling off, as well as a very large waffle cone on top. Their face is a similar brown color to the rice sprinkles on their body, and they have visible whiskers on their face. They have small patches of light brown on their knees.

Depending on the flavor, Sprinklekit's faces, fur color and rice sprinkles will be a different color.

If it wasn't obvious, some ice creams in the facility are actually Sprinklekits, which makes consumption of ice cream pretty dangerous.

•Feizao: Feizao are a soap-based squirrel Gootraxian. They have mint green colored fur, with a lighter shade of teal for their underbelly and lower section of their tail. A darker shade of teal is used for the ends of their limbs and upper section of their tail as well as the insides of their ears and their eyes.

They have prominently fluffy bodies, given the poofs of fur on their head and chest.

Feizao gain a host incase some unfortunate soul decides to use a bit too much soap.

•Fashui: Fashui are soap-based squirrel Gootraxians. It is the Power Outage variant of Feizao.

Fashui is an orange squirrel with short horns that glow a yellowish color. The tips of its arms, feet and inner ears are colored a darkish-red, with some light yellow fur on its stomach and muzzle. Its tail is dual colored, featuring orange as a base and yellow for its tip. The tip of its tail and its paw pads are capable of glowing during Power Outages and Blackouts.

•Lang: Lang is a red panda Gootraxian with light purple fur. They have large, dark purple stripes on their arms and legs as well as smaller ones on their face going from their eyes to the bottom of their face.

They had relatively short ears and fluff on their head, and their eyes were a much darker purple than the rest of their body. They had large fluffy tails, the upper part of which is colored the same dark purple as the stripes on its body.

Lang originated from a weird gas leak that was in the West Wing. Anyone who stayed too long in the gas was soon transformed into Lang, before the gas leak was fixed. This gas also immits from Lang themselves, but instead of transforming anyone nearby, it just weakens the victim.

•Jammer: Jammer is a wolf Gootraxian It is the Blackout variant of Fed.

It has a similar appearance to Fed and Shade having grey fur with a light grey neck fluff, underbelly, paws, and ear tufts. There are circular light blue markings along its arms and legs, with similar light blue eyes. It is often seen wearing headphones.

The same headphones are also the reason why Jammer gets itself a host (incase someone's stupid enough to wear them).

This world also has the thing called vore. Vore is when someone eats someone or something whole without chewing, just straight up swallowing them whole. Due to this, society is mainly divided into two parts, prey and preds (predators).

The prey tends not to have an ability to swallow other people and are basically normal people. Prey is also sometimes considered as a normal food source for preds, as overpopulation is a thing. The prey CAN'T eat anyone nor do any actions that only pred can do (object vore is an exception).

The preds are the opposite of prey. Preds have the ability to swallow other people, be that through artificial means, via augmentations, or just born with this trait by birth. The preds aren't always mean, although most are dominant and don't see prey as equals, hence the name.

Oral vore: The pred eats the prey. The prey then travels through the fleshy tunnel that is esophagus, until they reach the stomach.

Digestion: The digestion process isn't painful and melty. The prey digests slowly, although it mostly depends on the pred's species. The remains of the prey can also be different. Some prey turns into shit, either fully or with only bones left in them; some prey gets absorbed fully, leaving nothing behind; and some prey only leaves bones. Again, it depends on the pred's digestive system and how strong it is.

Anal vore: The pred "swallows" the prey using their asshole to suck the prey into their intestines. The prey for it's part is mostly immobile (depending on the size of the pred) and moves through the intestines towards the stomach. Some preds however, prefer to keep the prey inside the intestines for longer, either to absorb them inside the said intestines or to keep them for longer.

Unbirth: Unbirth involves prey being inserted into pred's pussy, where the prey eventually reaches the womb. Unexpectedly, some preds can digest prey inside their womb, which involves the prey being melted into cum for the pred to ejaculate later.

Cock vore: Cock vore involves prey, being shoved inside pred's urethra. The prey will travel down the cock's length, before being deposited into one of the testicles of the pred. The prey then is slowly melted into cum, causing the pred's testicles and cock to get bigger.

Breast vore (WORKS ONLY IF A PRED IS A FEMALE): Breast vore involves prey being inserted into one of the pred's breasts, via nipple. The prey gets sucked into nipple and deposited into breast's milk glands. The digestion process is slow and involves the prey being broken down into lot's of milk. After the prey is completely digested inside the breast, the pred is left with their breasts being filled with tasty milk. The bigger the object or prey is, the more milk will the pred get.

Tail vore: If a pred can't swallow the prey one way or another, they get an augmentation called "tail-maw", turning their tail into a tail with maw, that can even be sentient. If a tail-maw does eat someone, or something, it'll travel down the entirety of it's length, before being deposited into pred's stomach for further digestion.

Endosoma: A process involving pred consuming a prey with one of the types mentioned earlier and keeping the prey SAFE inside their stomach, intestines, womb, balls or breasts. If endosoma is used with breast vore, instead of absorbing the prey, the milk production will just increase, slightly flooding the prey in milk.

Weight gain: Food gives calories. Everyone knows that. So whenever a pred digests a prey, their nutrients get absorbed into pred's body. After digesting someone in a womb or stomach, the pred's ass, hips, thighs and breasts will increase in size, as well as some fat on the belly. After digesting someone in testicles, the pred's balls and cock will increase in size. After digesting someone in breast/breasts, only pred's breasts will increase in size, however, if the pred gets milked, the breasts return to normal size. After digesting someone inside the intestines, only the pred's ass, hips and thighs will increase in size.

Object vore: Object vore is when a pred consumes an edible or non-edible object. NOT PEOPLE. The weight gain rule only applies when pred consumes something bigger than an average person. Also, if a pred consumes AND digests an edible object inside their breasts or testicles, it'll affect the "product". To put it simply, if a pred digests something tasty, an apple for example, the milk or cum will be apple-flavoured (doesn't work with non-edible stuff)

Reformation: You accidentally digested your friend by accident or just got a "little too playful"? No need to worry. Reformation is a thing. Basically, reformation is a process of prey being brought back to life after digestion by the pred that digested them or people specialising in that. The whole process is also considered as "magic", as it doesn't require any technology or something like that. Reformation requires quite a lot of focus from the pred, but sometimes it's better to just ask someone to do that, although it most likely won't be cheap. For the prey, reformation feels... Not so pleasant. After being digested by a pred, the prey's consciousness stays, while their body is not. They basically turn into little ghosts that are bounded to pred's body while not being able to interact with them at all besides watching. The ghosts are invisible, but certain people can do even that. After the machinations of being brought back to life are complete, the reformed prey feels as if they got suddenly awakened from having the best nap ever, with their heart beating fast and mind speaking "where am I?" Worth noting that after reformation the prey DOESN'T remember what pred was doing after they got digested. For example: If a pred, after digesting prey, went over to drink a coffee, the prey won't remember that. The only thing that prey will remember is how they got digested, not what happened after that. From pred's perspective it's much more easier. They just get to see how they prey appears back in their world. Doesn't matter how it looks either. It can either be just simply spawning in with a poof, or a white flash for example.
