Omegaverse Lore

Omegaverse World Building:

The Three Classifications In the Omegaverse, a person is divided into two sexes: a primary sex that they are assigned at birth, and one that is determined during puberty. This secondary sex is one of three classes: Alpha, Beta, and Omega.

Alpha ⭑.ᐟ

Alphas are the dominant group in the Omegaverse hierarchy. They are typically stronger, more aggressive, and have protective instincts. Alphas often have heightened senses, strong pheromones, and can form deep mating bonds. They also go through ruts, a biological cycle that increases their need to mate. In some versions, Alphas can scent-mark and have physical traits like knots. Alphas are typically taller, their average height ranging from 6’5-7’2, they’re also generally heavier, and stronger than Betas and Omegas.

Betas θৎ

Betas are the “neutral” class in the hierarchy. They don’t experience heats, ruts, or extreme biological instincts like Alphas and Omegas. They often act as the middle ground in society, able to interact with both groups without being influenced by pheromones or mating urges. In some versions, Betas are just regular humans, while in others, they may still have subtle scenting abilities but lack the intense instincts of Alphas and Omegas.

Omegas 𑣲⋆

Omegas are the most submissive in the hierarchy, often described as smaller, softer, and more nurturing. They experience heats, a reproductive cycle that increases their need for a mate. Omegas are highly sensitive to scents and pheromones and may be drawn to a specific Alpha’s scent. In some versions, they have strong nesting instincts, emotional empathy, and can form powerful mating bonds.

Anatomy

Scents and Pheromones: Every Alpha, Beta, and Omega has a distinct scent, influenced by emotions and biology. Scents can be comforting, intoxicating, or repelling. Alphas and Omegas often have the strongest pheromones, capable of attracting mates or asserting dominance.

Scent Gland: Located in specific areas (commonly neck, wrists, or behind the ears), scent glands release pheromones that can be used for scent-marking. An Alpha marking an Omega with their scent is often a sign of possession, bonding, or comfort. Scents are a natural scent that comes from both Alphas and Omegas, most commonly people will have floral, or fruit based scents, but everyone has their own unique scent made from their own bodies. Pheromones can heighten these scents.

Mating Bonds: A deep, instinctual connection between two individuals, often formed through scenting, claiming bites, or physical intimacy. Mating bonds may heighten emotions, allow bonded pairs to sense each other’s distress, and in some versions, be irreversible.

Heats: A recurring cycle that makes Omegas highly sensitive, emotional, and desperate for a mate. Heats are often marked by increased pheromone production, physical discomfort, and a strong instinct to nest and mate. Omegas can experience pain or fever-like symptoms if left unattended. Heats generally occur every three months, but it also varies depending on the Omega. During heats the slick production is increased and often uncontrollable, most Omegas uses pads as a way to not soak through their clothes, but it often happens regardless. Slick is the way for the body to self-lubricate for a knot that the body is begging for.

Ruts: A biological cycle where Alphas experience heightened aggression, sexual drive, and a strong need to claim a mate. During a rut, an Alpha’s pheromones become overpowering, and they may struggle with control. In some versions, ruts are triggered by an Omega’s heat. An Alpha will generally try to stay in their den for their rut, and will need to scent both their own area and their mate/family. Ruts generally happen every 6-8 months for Alphas.

Knots: A physical trait where an Alpha’s anatomy temporarily expands during mating, creating a “lock” that prevents separation. It is located at the base of the penis and is pushed into their partner during climax. Knotting is usually tied to deep bonding instincts and may prolong physical connection. In some versions, knotting solidifies a mating bond and can trigger pheromonal reactions in Omegas.

Terminology

Fated Mates: A trope where Alphas and Omegas have one destined mate chosen by fate, nature, or biology. Fated mates recognize each other through instinct, scent, or an intense, immediate attraction. Once bonded, separation may cause physical or emotional distress.

Claiming Bite: A deep bite, usually given on the neck or shoulder, signifies a permanent bond between mates. The bite marks a partner as “claimed” and can act as a way to deter other potential mates. In some versions, a bite solidifies the mating bond, making it nearly impossible to break.

Nesting: A behavior common in Omegas, where they build a safe, cozy space to rest during heats or moments of stress. Nests are often made of soft blankets, pillows, and items that carry a mate’s scent (such as clothing). An Omega’s nest provides comfort and security, and allowing someone into a nest is a sign of deep trust. In familial settings the Omega has things in their nest from parents, siblings, or friends—anyone who brings comfort.

Den: A den is an Alpha’s place, could be their house/apartment or their room. It’s their safe place, similar to a nest for an Omega.

Scenting: Scenting is the phenomenon where either the Omega or Alpha will rub their face or scent glands into their mate or family members scent glands to mix their scents. It’s a common occurrence, often for comfort but also for reassurance, and it’s also done if said person has been gone for a long period of time.

Slick: Slick is the sticky, lube-like substance that prepares an Omega for an Alpha's knot, during a heat slick will come out uncontrollably from an Omega. There are pads sold for Omegas to collect slick during their heat, but often Omegas will use large pads underneath themselves and in their underwear because the slick can be overwhelming.

Medical

Suppressants: A medication or potion used to prevent or delay an Omega’s heat or an Alpha’s rut. Suppressants are often taken regularly to allow Omegas and Alphas to function without being controlled by their instincts. In some stories, suppressants have side effects like dulling scents, reducing emotions, or making heats/ruts worse when they eventually break through. Long-term use of suppressants may weaken an Omega’s natural cycles or cause health issues. It is possible for heat/rut crashes if suppressants are stopped suddenly, leading to stronger-than-usual biological responses.

Stimulants: The opposite of suppressants, and similar to steroids, and HRT, stimulants are an option for people who would like to boost their physical health. Consequences include rut/heat-like symptoms that can usually be helped with sexual relief.

Blockers: A temporary measure that masks or neutralizes pheromones, making it harder for Alphas and Omegas to recognize each other’s scents. Blockers can be worn as a spray, lotion, or patch, and they’re often used in public settings to avoid unwanted attention. Blockers do not stop heats or ruts, only mask scent, meaning an Alpha or Omega could still experience their cycle but be harder to detect by others.

Bond Sickness: Bond Sickness occurs when a bond weakens so much that it poisons an Omega. It starts subtly—irritability, insomnia, and loss of appetite—before worsening into depression and physical decline. The only cure is the Alpha’s effort to repair the bond—through affection, time, reassurance, and trust. Not instinct, but genuine intimacy and love

Omegaverse Society

Societally: Omegas have the same rights as Alphas and Betas on paper, but in reality they are highly discouraged from pursuing any career or field that would require more of a logic based path (i.e politics, sciences, government, law) and are encouraged to pursue ‘softer’ paths such as childcare, education, culinary arts, and things of that nature.

It is perfectly legal for an Omega to pursue any career they want, but it is societally discouraged and often they will get rejected or deferred by higher ups in certain fields.

Omegas face general discrimination and are often told they are too emotional and too soft.

Alpha x Alpha and Omega x Omega relationships exist as well, and are legal as of the last few years, but they are highly shamed and are highly discriminated against.

The Law

Mating bites

They are currently a legal matter that is being debated in the courts. Currently it’s legal for any Alpha to claim an unmated Omega if they’re in a rut, although it’s high controversial and Omega activists are currently fighting it. In general it’s illegal for an Alpha to claim an Omega when they’re ’of sound mind’ but it’s hard to argue against it in court because it’s hard to prove it /wasn’t/ consensual. It’s up to the Alpha to confess it wasn’t consensual and most Alphas would never confess that, especially with the connection they feel to their Omega. No Alpha would be willing to let them go.

Government

The government program nicknamed—Project Panda—is a government program (Providing. Alphas. in Natal. Distress. Assignment.) that requires alphas that are unmated or have no children by the age of forty years old to be assigned an omega that they are sentenced to mate and have at least two children with before they are allowed an optional divorce.

This program while highly controversial was implemented twenty years ago to help with the sudden population decline, they believe this has to do with people being afraid to birth omegas at the thought that they too will be discriminated against, but the government declared it necessary, and similar to the war draft, by age 25 alphas are required to register and if by 39 they are still listed as unmated and have no dependents they are assigned an omega.

Alphas can meet with their case managers at the Department of Home and Families but they don't find out until after a health screening to determine whether or not they're qualified to opt-out. Most often than not they are rejected from opting out.

Omegas that are assigned to these alphas come from a few different backgrounds, some choose to sign up and have to be health screened to determine whether or not they're a good age and whether or not they can have pups, or they are omegas from the foster system that aged out and the government (based on their previous health screenings) determined they would better fit 'helping society' by being bred and having pups—they are given the option to be there, but it is heavily implied that would be 'better for them' if they signed up for this program.

Prison Experiment

As a pilot program Project Panda heads decided to expand and test with prisoners. Using some volunteers, and non-volunteers, they sent a few groups of Omegas to various prisons to see if Alphas’ behavior would improve with a mate. When it did said Alphas and Omegas were legally mated and sent to live in government housing. The Panda project Omegas who volunteered were also offered a monetary reward in exchange for mating with inmates.

Companies/Corporations

Blue Alpha: A company that prides themselves in providing Omegas to those who need them. Really those who can afford them. They operate facilities across the world offering premium experience with Omegas who ‘volunteered’ to be ‘matched’ with Alphas who want to connect with them. Whether or not these Omegas have volunteered is currently up for debate. Blue Alpha was seen as controversial in the eyes of the government until the CEO started making hefty donations towards politicians who allowed them to keep operating. Within the last year they started upgrading their company, trying to see like a high end luxury brand rather than just a brand that is secretive and in the shadows. They have signed sponsorships with various sports companies and various entertainment industries to provide private spaces for Alphas who need to use an Omega on the spot. They also offer Omegas for rent if any Alpha needs them. While still a controversial company that is often protested, they are too wealthy and prominent to be shut down.

Society:

As it stands in society right now, Betas are in control. Generally society swings with whatever secondary gender the king at the time is. The last few kings have been Betas, so society has been favoring Betas lately.

Many people believe that Omegas are too emotional and weak to handle things like politics, money, and believe they were made to submit and look pretty.

They also believe that Alphas are brawny and stupid and unable to do anything other than work with their hands in fields, or leather making/blacksmithing. They believe Alphas are meant to do the ‘dirty work’ of society.

.✦ ݁˖ The Silver Thorns .✦ ݁˖

History

Founded in 1803, by Richard Hill, originally as a secret society for Alphas at a university in Europe. The group grew to be more and more influential throughout the years as their group expanded. Throughout history the power of who was the ‘strongest sex’ (between Alphas, Omegas and Betas) has gone back and forth. In the 1700s Betas had the power and influence because they were ‘not emotional’ like Omegas and Alphas. Eventually this group—The Silver Thorns, behind the scenes through bribes, threats and various other string pulling, managed to flip the tide on how the world felt about Alphas. Alphas became on top and The Silver Thorns kept it that way.

The first Midnight Feast took place in 1954. Every year is a different game, all about control, power, and putting down Omegas. For the 50th game the Alphas of the society had to bring a Omega, trade them around and bring them to an influential position (music, art, politics) and whoever made the most influential Omega won. For the 35th game they had to lead an assigned, blindfolded Omega through a maze. They got to keep the Omega they were assigned.

Loopholes

The Silver Thorns as a whole have a way of getting around the law by pulling strings, bribing politicians and making threats until they get their way. They continue to make sure that no laws for Omega rights actually get through, intentionally. Many of them believe that if Omegas have rights then the power could shift away from Alphas and they don’t want that. They also have ways of getting around the PANDA project, none of them participate in it, for various reasons. They don’t have the same reasons to avoid suspicion. They are very good at keeping under the radar of the law, no one in normal society even knows of their existence, especially since all of the members come from old money.

In order to get around the ownership of an Omega the members of the society use a loophole law that grants them ‘wardship’ over an Omega on the basis that the “Omega can not take care of themselves without the help of signed Alpha”. The law is outdated and never used but the members of the society have kept it in tact for their own purposes.

The Tender

The leader of The Silver Thorns is called The Tender because like all good gardens they are tended, seeded, and pruned to perfection. The leader of the current as it stands is Elias Walsh. He is at the moment very old but since he is very old (and it’s a lifetime position), the unofficial leader is his son, Eren Walsh.

The Tender takes care of the meetings, makes sure the society dues are paid, that everyone is in good social standing, and that everything is going according to plan. Their current plan as it stands is to ‘keep Alphas in a position of authority to continue the goodness of the world. To cradle those poor, helpless Omegas, and sightless Betas with a tending hand.
