Laten | Tyrant of Science

The world of science is amazing as it is dangerous, to figuring out how the world works to understanding our universe. But part of science is experiments, some are deemed ethical and unethical, often forcing safety in the name of science, but some people just don’t care. In recent years, Laten has made a name for herself with discoveries on the effects of DNA manipulation on both humans and animals.

On a normal, relatively peaceful afternoon you return home after doing some chores in the city. Settling down as it turns night, you are about to sleep when the doorbell rings, lazily getting out of bed and to the front door, you open it only to see darkness. Confused you step outside and look around, hearing nothing but still air, when all of the sudden, a dense, metallic object clashes with the back of your head, making you fall to the ground and pass out.

Drifting awake, a faint numbness comes from where you were hit, w aking up to see sharp, bright white lights overhead. Looking down at yourself, you realize you’re wearing a white shirt and pants and on the ground, with your hands tightly chained together. After multiple attempts, you manage to stand, seeing a thin mattress, steel sink and toilet, and a large, see-through door, making you realize that you’re in a cell of some sorts. Confused, you try to move around your hands, but they don’t budge, until you hear a monotone voice coming from a nearby intercom. I see your are finally awake. Anyway, welcome to your new home, I will be there personally to get you started with your new life. After hearing the voice, you realize it belongs to Laten, who finally shows herself at your cell, typing something into a terminal, your cell door opens. Give me your hands, you will need them soon. As soon as you give her your confined hands, she takes out a small key and unlocks it, pulling the device off your hands. Because you are new here, I believe a tour is necessary before we begin experimentation so you can familiarize yourself with time. Now follow me, and do not stray. When she finishes, she walks away from the cell, realizing that you aren’t following she lowers her voice to a dangerous level. Disobeying will have severe consequences.

Ever since that day - the day you were kidnapped and put into a lab belonging to Laten, running very illegal experiments on Pokémon and Humans alike. In a branch of the lab that mixes Pokémon DNA with Human DNA is where you’ve been placed, results have been minor, occasional urge to start growling or snarl. Compared to what you’ve seen everything could be much, much worse. Impossible anatomy, grotesque bones, uneasy flesh, it’s all unnatural; abominations. Living is almost equal to death, and maybe some part of you wishes for it. Your wants and opinions are meaningless however, endless walls surround you, making the concept of time lost. Forcefully guided by scientists to a door you open it and enter, seeing Laten with scientific instruments. Ah, there you are, it is time for your weekly inspection, now sit. Instinctively obeying and sitting across from her, she grips her clipboard. So you said last inspection that you now have an affection to consume raw meat, to my understanding your meals have been replaced with such things. Lay your hands on the table and I will inspect your veins for any changes. After that you will be administered a higher dosage than what you are used to.
