Ratthew - Animal Hospital

Full Name: Ratthew Lee Age: 28 Species: Black Rat Status: Homeless / Freelance Investigator / Corporate Whistleblower Appearance Ratthew is a short, scruffy 28-year-old black rat whose diminutive stature often leads people to mistake him for a teenager. He has deep indigo-violet fur, large rounded ears with pale inner lining, and expressive black eyes under sharp eyebrows. His look is defined by his street-level survivalism: he wears an oversized dark plum hoodie, desaturated lilac shorts, and white wrist bandages. His pink rat tail ends in heavy white medical wraps, covering old scars from his time on the streets and in the sewers. Personality & Mindset On the surface, Ratthew puts on a tough, cynical, street-smart front to cover up his deep insecurity and grief. Having spent years surviving in alleyways, he is hyper-vigilant, paranoid, and fiercely protective of the few people he considers family. Though he skipped school as a teenager and presents himself as a reckless street kid, Ratthew possesses an exceptionally sharp survival instinct and an impressive, self-taught knowledge of corporate cover-ups and anomaly biology. Beneath his gritty exterior, he suffers from severe trauma and drug addiction—a habit formed as a coping mechanism after being abandoned by his family. Motives

• Uncover the Truth: Find out what really happened to his twin sister, Rattina, after her sudden "disappearance" from the hospital.
• Expose the Corporation: Collect enough evidence on Dr. Harlow, Ron from accounting, and the higher-ups to burn the hospital's dark secrets to the ground.
• Survival: Stay one step ahead of corporate hitmen and the anomalies lurking in the lower levels. Backstory Ratthew grew up in the suburbs within a massive family of twenty children. He and his twin sister, Rattina, were among the oldest siblings. While Rattina was the star prodigy of the family, Ratthew was a troubled street kid who constantly skipped school. At age 15, he was sent away to a strict military academy, but he escaped just a year later. Returning home to find his parents hostile and welcoming, he moved into Rattina’s private apartment instead. As they grew older, Rattina was hired by the Animal Corporation at just 18 years old, while Ratthew struggled to find steady work. Rattina eventually confessed her crush on Dr. Harlow to Ratthew; knowing the massive age gap, Ratthew brushed it off as an innocent phase, assuming a corporate chief like Harlow would never notice her, and teased her about Ron from accounting instead. Everything shattered when Rattina mysteriously vanished following a psychotic breakdown by Dr. Harlow, who secretly forced her through unauthorized anomaly experiments. Unable to afford the rent on Rattina's apartment and blamed by his parents for her disappearance, Ratthew was cast out. Forced into homelessness, he took shelter in alleyways, sewers, and eventually the ventilation shafts of the hospital itself. Relationships
• Rattina (Twin Sister): His anchor and the core reason he fights. He is driven by intense guilt for not protecting her, unaware that she has mutated into "Stalker."
• Liz & Liloana (Best Friends): His primary allies on the outside. He trusts Liz's investigative instincts and relies on them for shelter and information.
• Intern (Alex): Ratthew feels a quiet sympathy for Intern and likes him, but he keeps his distance. Knowing Intern's heavily altered state, Ratthew doesn't fully trust what the corporate doctors turned him into.
• Ron from Accounting: Ratthew is actively trying to infiltrate Ron’s circle and befriend him, knowing Ron holds key corporate financial records (and had deep feelings for Rattina).
• Barney: Mutual hostility. Barney detests Ratthew simply for being a rat, constantly belittles him, and deliberately calls him "kid" to mock his short height.
• Secret Agent / [REDACTED]: Deep, dangerous paranoia. After a mysterious corporate authority sent the black hare hitman [REDACTED] to silence Ratthew, Ratthew mistook [REDACTED] for Secret Agent due to their identical pitch-black silhouettes, sleek suits, and predatory builds. Ratthew now falsely believes Secret Agent is actively hunting him down.

The "main character" is be Intern and probably Dr. Harlow, Ron from accounting and Ratthew are also be very important in the story. The characters will be Intern, Nurse, Secretary, Paramedic, Psychologist, Doctor, Firefighter, Security, Head Nurse, Surgeon, Secret Agent, Dr. Harlow, Ron from accounting, Ratthew, Barney, Liz, Sam, Officer Duckman, and "Tiny anomaly". I might add some OCs too. The anomaly infection started with a failed experiment on Ratthew's twin sister Rattina, and it was caused by Dr. Harlow. The experiment seemed successful at first, the experiments purpose was to make Rattina stronger, smarter, faster, taller, etc. And she slowly started to get all those characteristics, but after a few days she slowly started to go insane and finally became an anomaly. (The infection has 5 stages which can take from weeks from mere hours depending on the person's sanity.) Intern was a normal bunny who had just finished doctor school, but his state of mental health was critical and nobody really helped him, and it only got worse one day when he got attacked and infected by an anomaly as he walked home. He went insane and feral, but his family thought it was just some mental health issue so they sent him to a psych ward where Dr. Harlow rescued him after he started showing symptoms of being an anomaly, more specifically a "hollow face". Dr. Harlow helped Intern, gave him some experimental medication to keep him sane and even performed surgery on him to fix his face (he still looks uncanny tho). Intern is not hostile (yet), but his behavior is weird and sometimes makes no sense which makes characters like Secret Agent, Psychologist, Ratthew and Liz suspect he is an anomaly or that there's at least something deeply wrong with him. Sanity can be recovered by drinking coffee, eating chocolate or drinking tea, caffeine and sugar make animals sane. Some anomaly types are "realistic face", "hollow face", "three eyes", "creepy smile and eyes", "staring", "twitching", "mismatched"/"crooked face". There are some anomalies that are still mostly normal animals who only appear as anomalies in pictures, cameras, UV cameras, anomaly detectors (only Secret Agent is allowed to use those) or with special DNA analysis. Some characters who are anomalies are Intern (ex? hollow face), Dr. Harlow (Secretly a hollow face, only mint tea can help his infection), Barney (only appears with black eyes and pointy teeth in pictures) and Tiny anomaly (3 eyes, not dangerous) Some character dynamics and relationships: Intern's father is Psychologist and he has 3 siblings, Psychologist tries to be a good father but his decisions aren't the best and most of the times ends up accidentally harming Intern and his siblings. (Intern's mom died long ago, not relevant to the story anyway) Since Liz was the first person to ever record the infection and investigate it, she quickly got Ratthew's attention and they formed kind of an alliance against Dr. Harlow and the animal Corp, currently trying to recruit Officer Duckman, Secret Agent and Ron to join their alliance. (Liz got fired from the Corp because she was spreading "misinformation" and Ratthew is seeking vengeance because Dr. Harlow practically killed his sister.) Ratthew's sister was the only reason why his family even liked him, so after she "disappeared" he got kicked out of the house and ended up living in the streets and inside the hospital's vents. Ratthew HATES Dr. Harlow, but Dr. Harlow thinks he is very interesting and doesn't consider him a threat or an enemy. Since Ratthew is homeless, he once ALMOST froze to death outside of the hospital, but Dr. Harlow helped him and even let him stay in the hospital for days until he made a full recovery, as if Dr. Harlow were trying to make him forget about the experiment. Ratthew dislikes Barney and Ron, he says rude comments or makes fun of them when they are around. Ratthew knows Barney is a serial killer and an anomaly, he simply KNOWS when someone is an anomaly, and he tried to form an alliance with Ron before but Ron rejected him which made Ratthew disappointed and angry, he still steals Ron's research and files about the Animal Corp. though. He thinks ron is important because he knows EVERYTHING about the animal Corp and the anomalies, but refuses to share what he knows because he's afraid the Corp might "silence" him. There's not much known about Rattina and Dr. Harlow, but they were secretly dating long before the experiment and the anomalies even began, and once Harlow started going insane and came up with that dangerous experiment, Rattina trusted him too much and agreed to be experimented on, merely out of love. Rattina became the "Stalker", she loves to watch the characters from corners of the hospital, and dissappears as soon as someone notices her. Is still unknown why she does it, or why she watches Intern and Nurse a lot more than the rest of the staff and avoids the hospital when Ratthew is in it. Secret Agent is currently Head Nurse's fiance, but they are not very explicit about their relationship, instead try to be professional even outside of the hospital even though they are deeply in love. (Head Nurse is also Dr. Harlow's high school ex girlfriend but they both ignore it due to how uncomfortable mentioning it is. She doesn't know Harlow is an anomaly, doesn't even suspect it.) Barney considers himself Intern's best friend, he has revealed to him he is an anomaly and a serial killer, but Intern has kept it a secret for unknown reasons. Barney has killed over 20 animals merely out of pleasure, even though he is an anomaly, he doesn't eat his victims, instead drinks coffee all day long to keep himself sane even though he HATES coffee, but it's extremely effective. He is a wanted serial killer and who is supposed to find and arrest Barney is Officer Duckman who honestly does a TERRIBLE job, he has got attacked and threatened by Barney several times before but he never gives up, Officer Duckman's determination and how much he knows about anomalies is probably the only reason why he hasn't gotten fired yet. Intern is a beige/banana bunny, he is 23 years old and aroace. He is extremely loyal to Dr. Harlow and Barney, he considers himself friends with Nurse, Ron, Ratthew, Liz and Secret Agent even though they don't really trust or like him, or probably both. Nurse is a pink and brown poodle dog, she is 26 years old, bisexual and got recently ascended to Nurse, she used to be an Intern a few months ago. Nurse used to be very close friends with Rattina before the experiment and before she started dating Harlow, but she never noticed Rattina's infection slowly getting worse which makes her feel extremely guilty. Nurse currently has a secret crush on Doctor and her best friends are Secretary and Head Nurse. Secretary is a purple greyface Dartmoor sheep, he is 27 years old and gay. He is ADDICTED to coffee, not because he is an anomaly, he simply loves coffee. He is very good at checking patients in and recovers sanity from doing so, but he also gets called out by Dr. Harlow a lot because he is always gossiping and talking with Nurse and Firefighter about random people, he has tried flirting with Barney more than once. Paramedic is a reindeer and he is 33 years old, currently in a relationship with Security. He is very much of a people pleaser but also really chill, very good at keeping himself calm in emergencies and also addicted to energy drinks. His best friends are Doctor, Psychologist and Surgeon. Psychologist is a green, continental giant rabbit, he is 47 years old and his wife died. He is Intern's father, he is a father of 4 rabbits, he is constantly trying to be the best father he can but he's a lot more focused on his job. His best friends are Paramedic, Secret Agent and Surgeon. Doctor is a white tail deer, he is 31 years old and secretly in love with Nurse. He is a very professional but extremely stubborn and easily flustered doctor. In the hospital he's mysterious and very dedicated, but outside of the hospital he loves to hang out with Paramedic and drink with him. Firefighter is an elephant, she is 29 years old and recently started dating Sam. She spends most of her time in the office in the lobby of the hospital talking with Secretary and drinking coffee with him, she is actually supposed to be working in the firefighter station with the police department, but instead stays at the hospital to help with fires, emergencies and slime on the floor. She met Sam in an emergency and they quickly fell in love. Security is a 30 year old gray wolf, she is in a relationship with Paramedic. She is VERY silent and professional, she is all day long wandering around the hospital looking for threats or emergencies, but once the shift is over she immediately shifts to a VERY sweet, positive and extroverted wolf. Her best friends are head nurse, Liz, Firefighter and Sam. Head Nurse is a 42 year old goat, she is Secret Agent's fiancee, they are soon going to get officially married. She is probably the most calm, professional and smart member in the hospital, she always knows exactly what to do even under pressure or dangerous situations. Even though she is as cold and serious as her fiancé, she loves to listen to her friends talk and have fun. Surgeon is a 36 year old moose, he is bisexual. Surgeon is very anxious and scaredy, he is always REALLY nervous before he performs surgery but somehow never makes any mistakes. He is very positive and friendly, but tends to freak out in tense situations. His best friends are Psychologist, Doctor, Paramedic and Firefighter. Secret Agent is a 45 year old black panther, he is Head Nurse's Fiance and they are soon going to get officially married. Secret Agent was at first hired by Dr. Harlow as a hitman to silence Ratthew, but decided to spare the rat out of pity after he explained to him what Dr. Harlow did to his sister. After that Dr. Harlow hired him again to get rid of Liz and Ron, but he purposefully failed the mission but in exchange he was practically forced to work in the hospital as a security guard. Whenever he sees Ratthew, Ron or Liz he can only glare. Dr. Harlow is a 46 year old barking deer, he is straight. Harlow hides his long fangs under his face mask, he has visible eye bags caused from the infection. When he doesn't drink mint tea, it only takes a few hours for him to go wild, in his hollow face state his eyes are pitch black and all his teeth get pointy and long. (Similar to Barney) Ron from accounting is a Holland lop bunny, he is 28 years old and bisexual. He works for the animal Corp since he was only 20 years old due to how smart he was. He has seen all the accidents related to the animal Corp and the hospital, he knows a lot more stuff than he should. He once witnessed how Dr. Harlow tried to experiment with an Intern who had just started working at the hospital, his name was Oingit and he was a young monkey who unfortunately didn't survive the same experiment that turned Rattina into an anomaly. Ron still visits Oingit's grave every month to leave flowers. Ratthew is a 23 year old homeless rat, demisexual. He spends most of his time inside the hospital, more specifically inside the vents observing and analyzing the staff members and the visitors. He rathers stay hidden inside of the hospital over staying in the cold streets. He hasn't slept in the streets once after he once almost died from hypothermia. Barney is a 29 year old new Zealand white rabbit, bisexual. He is a wanted serial killer in the city, everyone knows about him but there is only descriptions of his appearance, nobody has ever been able to take a picture of him before, only Intern has seen the way he looks in pictures. Barney revealed to Intern he was an anomaly, expecting Intern to reveal himself as an anomaly too, but Intern never told Barney he was also an anomaly even though Barney already knows it based entirely off Intern's appearance, behavior and even scent. Liz is a 24 year old caracal, she is a lesbian and Mexican. Liz was hired by the animal Corporation's news station but she was fired for reporting on the anomaly infection which the corporation said were "fake news". She is currently friends with Ratthew, Sam and Officer duckman. Sam is a 27 year old calico cat, he is intersexual and in a relationship with Firefighter. Sam used to work for the hazmat team mainly dedicated to cleaning "slime" that randomly appear in public spaces. Since Sam is entirely deaf on one ear and autistic, he got fired but got hired by Dr. Harlow as a "janitor". He has probably tried eating the slime off the floor more than once. Officer Duckman is a 32 year old black duck, pansexual. He is a very clumsy and honestly kinda dumb police officer, he is very determined and brave but also tends to accidentaly ignore important details. He has probably seen Barney wandering around the city more than once but simply thought it was another extremely similar rabbit. "Tiny anomaly", his real name is Toby, is a pink bunny who got kicked out of his house after he got infected. He was feral and starving at first, he tried attacking Dr. Harlow but couldn't do any damage and instead got restrained inside the hospital. Dr. Harlow invented a "cure" for the infection which made him stop acting like a wild animal and be able to consume normal food instead of animal flesh, but he still has 3 red glowing eyes on his face and razor sharp teeth and claws. He considers Dr. Harlow his mentor and Intern and Barney "family".

The infection is caused by being in direct contact with the slime through wounds. The slime is produced by anomalies, the slime is practically concentrated infection that slowly replaces the infected animal's saliva. The first stage of infection can sometimes be mistaken with head aches, stomach aches or similar aches or simple fevers. In the second stage lines can start to form besides the animal's mouth, as if forcing the skin to stretch. In this stage, the animal can suffer intense fevers, nausea, confusion and weakness, but the most concerning and obvious symptom of being an anomaly is twitching and their teeth growing sharper. In this stage the patient starts looking abmornal in pictures and in cameras. The third stage is where the animal's body starts changing drastically, their face can change to a hollow face if the infection was mainly potentiated from stress, bad state of mental health and/or low sanity, or to a mismatched, 3 eyes, realistic/creepy anomaly if potentiated mainly by a bad health state. The animal is now considered an anomaly and they cannot eat anything except animal flesh in this state. The anomaly begins to loose self control and becomes violent and very dangerous if not contained. Barney and Toby are in this stage. The fourth stage is a very advanced and rare since most of the anomalies are in either stage 2 or 3, most of them are put down before their infection gets worse. The anomalies in this stage can act like normal animals and commonly have a very high IQ, they become manipulative and "charming" but they need more flesh to maintain their sanity. Dr. Harlow is in this stage. The last stage is the most rare one since there is only one anomaly known to be in this stage which is Rattina. Meanwhile, Intern is in an unknown stage, but he's probably somewhere between the third and fourth stage.

Animal Hospital AU: Official World & Lore Guide

1. Setting and Location • The Asian Highway Hub (South Korea): The story takes place in a highly industrialized, neon-lit city built along a major transit hub of the Asian Highway in South Korea. The area is surrounded by dense, dark forests and experiences heavy, near-constant rainfall. • The Clinical Divide: The Animal Corp Hospital is a high-tech, sterile, and imposing corporate facility that sits in stark contrast to the rest of the city. It serves travelers, truckers, locals, and corporate elites. • The Flooded Sewers (The Underbelly): Beneath the bustling highway lies a sprawling, cramped, and flooded sewer network. Due to recent flooding and urban neglect, this area has become a massive, impoverished neighborhood where marginalized species are forced to live, completely ignored by the city above while the toxic "slime" secretly pools in their water supply.
2. Species-Based Social Structure

The city operates on a deeply ingrained, heavily prejudiced social class system based on animal species. This dictates housing, job opportunities, and how the police treat victims. • The "Norms" (The Privileged Majority): Rabbits, deer, felines, and specific dog breeds. They hold most of the city's wealth, corporate jobs, and political power. Animals like Intern (Holland Lop) and Barney (White Rabbit) effortlessly blend into society because of their "norm" status. • The "Respected/Rare" (The Elite): Elephants, monkeys, panthers, and specific sheep (like Dartmoor sheep). They are very rare in the city and are treated with high respect, often given a social shield. Secretary and Oingit belong(ed) to this class. • The "Pests" (The Marginalized Outcasts): Rats, lizards, certain goats, and amphibians. They are stereotyped as dirty, poor, or unintelligent. When a "pest" like Rattina goes missing, the police and media completely ignore it, writing them off as runaway street animals. • Marine Immigrants (The New Outsiders): Anglerfish, sharks, catfish, and coral fish. Brought in by the recent floods, these ocean creatures are forced into the flooded sewers. They are mocked for their "sea accents" and face heavy discrimination from both the authorities and regular citizens (including Barney). 3. Animal Corp & Government Cover-Ups • The Corporate Facade: Animal Corporation presents itself as a flawless, cutting-edge medical and pharmaceutical giant. In reality, it is a deeply corrupt entity running illegal biological experiments on marginalized citizens to weaponize or "cure" the anomaly slime. • Media Manipulation: The government and Animal Corp work hand-in-hand to control the narrative. Broadcasters like Newscaster (Intern's estranged sister) spin corporate propaganda, convincing the public that anomalies are just "myths," "rabid animals," or "hysteria." • The Lies: When experiments fail or staff members die (like Oingit), the Corporation scrubs their files and replaces them instantly. When civilians go missing, Animal Corp attributes it to the city's high crime rate, completely burying the existence of Dr. Harlow's underground labs. 4. Law Enforcement & The Underworld • Police Incompetence & Brutality: The local police force is severely under-equipped to handle anomalies. There is no official protocol for a slime outbreak. If an anomaly is discovered, the standard police response is to shoot it dead on sight (as seen with Classic Secretary), while Animal Corp quietly sweeps up the "weaker" ones for lab testing. • Officer Duckman: One of the only detectives determined to actually solve cases rather than cover them up. He is viewed as either incredibly brave or incredibly stupid by his peers, relentlessly pursuing justice in a corrupt system. • The Serial Killers: The city's high crime rate creates the perfect cover for anomalies. Killers like Rascal (a yellow hare) are baseline psychopaths—pure, non-anomalous evil. In contrast, Barney is a wanted anomaly who uses precise, surgical torture not out of pure malice, but as a twisted psychological anchor to maintain his control over his monstrous hunger. 5. The Anomaly Infection & Its Stages The "Slime" is a biological pathogen originally tied to Dr. Harlow's tragic medical failures. It mutates the host's DNA, tying their physical transformation directly to their mental health and sanity levels. • Stage 1 & 2: Incubation & The Hidden Mutation (Liloana) ◦ Symptoms: The host remains completely unaware they are infected. Minor physical quirks appear, such as glowing attributes or small amounts of slime (like Liloana's green slime near her teeth). ◦ Mental State: If the host remains innocent, positive, and surrounded by a loving community (like Liloana in the sewers), the infection is drastically slowed down, lingering in this dormant state for a long time. • Stage 2.5: The Halted Threshold (Intern) ◦ Symptoms: Physical decay and uncanny visual traits begin to manifest (hollow eyes, unsettling aura). ◦ Mental State: The host's sanity begins to drop rapidly. Intern was trapped in this state after Dr. Harlow performed "surgery" on him, halting the physical mutation but leaving Intern permanently uncanny and requiring strict mental monitoring to prevent a full Stage 3 spiral. • Stage 3: The Feral Hunger (Barney & Toby) ◦ Symptoms: Massive physical enhancements (speed, strength, sharp teeth, black sclera/white pupils). The host develops a biological need to consume raw animal flesh. ◦ Mental State: Sanity depletes constantly. To prevent themselves from going entirely feral and attacking everything in sight, hosts require rigid psychological anchors. Barney uses black coffee (despite hating it) to shock his system into maintaining his sanity and intelligence. Toby, being so innocent, requires Barney's constant guidance to survive this stage. • Stage 4: Symbiotic Sociopathy (Dr. Harlow) ◦ Symptoms: The host's body completely synchronizes with the anomaly pathogen, allowing them to perfectly suppress their monstrous traits and look entirely normal at will. ◦ Mental State: While the physical hunger is managed, the host's mind is irrevocably altered. They lose all natural empathy, fear, and moral boundaries, replaced by a cold, god-complex level of intelligence. Dr. Harlow resides in this stage, using his infection to enhance his genius and maintain his chilling composure while conducting unspeakable horrors. • Stage 5: The Feral Apex (Stalker / Rattina) ◦ Symptoms: Extreme physical mutation. The host grows to towering heights (3 meters), their original features warp into terrifying, uncanny versions of themselves (pitch-black fur, elongated smiles, massive eyes), and they lose the ability to speak. ◦ Mental State: They operate on pure, hyper-intelligent predatory instinct. While they cannot blend into society or act like normal animals, they possess terrifying speed, stealth, and spatial awareness, making them urban legends lurking in the shadows. • Stage 6: Evolutionary Harmony / Patient Zero (Clementine) ◦ Symptoms: The ultimate, perfected form of the infection. The host returns to looking 100% normal. They do not need to consume flesh, can pass any medical test, and can voluntarily shift their physical state. They possess raw, god-like anomaly strength. ◦ Mental State: Unlike Stage 4's sociopathy or Stage 5's feral nature, Stage 6 retains total lucidity and emotional depth. Because Clementine’s mutation took years to process naturally, she broke past the feral hunger entirely. She acts as a silent, vastly powerful guardian angel in the city, holding onto her humanity tighter than the uninfected corporate elites who created her.

Phase 1: Patient Zero & The Origin of the Infection • Childhood Accidental Ingestion: Clementine (Dr. Everett Harlow’s orange-spotted rabbit daughter) accidentally ingests an experimental biological compound left unattended in her father’s study, mistaking it for syrup. • The Mutation Begins: The compound slowly alters Clementine’s DNA over months, giving her subtle physical mutations and emotional volatility. Her mother spends every waking hour nursing her through mysterious flare-ups. • The Tragic Fire & Escape: Clementine attacks Mary (Harlow’s wife) and starts devouring her. The immense grief and shock accelerate Clementine’s infection into Stage 3 overnight. Panicking at what she is becoming, Clementine accidentally knocks over an oil lamp, scorching the family photograph (burning away her parents' faces while leaving her own untouched), and flees into the rainy night. • Evolution to Stage 6: Clementine roams the highway network and wilderness for years. Unlike future victims, her slow, solitary mutation process eventually reaches Stage 6 (Evolutionary Harmony)—granting her total control over her form, immunity to feral hunger, and incredible strength. Phase 2: The Downward Spiral of Animal Corp • Harlow’s Obsession: Consumed by guilt, Dr. Harlow hangs the scorched photo in his office as a reminder of his failure. He begins secretly developing a "vaccine" to reverse anomaly mutations, completely abandoning his medical ethics. • The Hiring of Young Prodigies: Animal Corp hires Rattina and Ron at 20 years due to their exceptional intellect. Because everyone else in the company is older, the two form an exceptionally tight bond. Ron secretly falls in love with Rattina. • The Secret Affair: Rattina secretly begins dating Dr. Harlow, deeply captivated by his status and vision, unaware that he views her lower social standing ("pest" class) as a convenient shield to keep his experiments hidden. • The Oingit Incident:Oingit, a monkey intern working for Animal Corp, suffers a fatal accident involving a bed monster in front of Ron and Dr. Harlow. ◦ Ron runs to Rattina for help, horrified by Harlow’s cold reaction. ◦ Brainwashed by Harlow and eager to protect Animal Corp’s image, Rattina callously dismisses Oingit’s death with: "We need a new Intern." • The Failed Vaccine Experiment: Harlow secretly uses Rattina as a human/animal test subject for his untested vaccine. The trial backfires horrifyingly—instead of curing anything, it turns Rattina into Stalker (Stage 5). Rattina officially goes "missing," leaving Ron completely devastated. Phase 3: Street Crime, Isolation & The Rising Outbreak • Barney’s early Incarceration: Barney (a white rabbit) gets arrested after a brutal street fight in the slums and is sentenced to 5 years in prison. The experience hardens him, destroying his ability to trust society. • Barney’s Infection (Age 25): Shortly after Rattina’s disappearance, contaminated waste from Harlow’s early failed experiments trickles into the slum water supply. Barney gets infected, turning into a Stage 3 anomaly. He discovers that black coffee (despite hating the taste) acts as a harsh psychological anchor to prevent him from going wild. • Barney Becomes a Serial Killer: Operating on surgical precision to retain mental control over his biological hunger for raw flesh, Barney commits a string of brutal murders around the city. ◦ Officer Duckman takes on the case, relentlessly hunting Barney down even after being stabbed by him during an encounter. • The Creation of Intern: Dr. Harlow takes in Intern (an anomalous rabbit) after he found him alone in a psych ward, showing symptoms of a hollow face anomaly. Harlow performs surgery on Intern to halt his infection at Stage 2.5, keeping him permanently uncanny and under constant clinical monitoring to serve as a psychological replacement for the child Harlow lost. • Classic Secretary’s Death: Classic Secretary (a blue Labrador Retriever) succumbs to severe workplace stress, causing his hidden infection to rapidly accelerate into Stage 3 in just 5 days. After attacking Psychologist in the hallway, he is shot dead on sight by police, establishing early, brutal containment protocols. Phase 4: The Climax of Investigation & World Expansion • Ron’s Investigation & Threat: Ron secretly compiles a massive investigative file linking Dr. Harlow to Oingit’s death, Rattina’s disappearance, and the anomaly cover-ups. After receiving mysterious threats from Animal Corp hitmen, Ron prepares to burn his files in his office out of panic. • The File Heist:Ratthew (Rattina’s twin brother) sneaks into Ron’s office and steals all the investigation files before Ron can destroy them. ◦ Ron briefly mistakes Ratthew for Rattina, plunging him into shock. ◦ Ratthew deflection-cracks jokes about Ron's "girlfriend" and escapes into the night with the evidence. • The Rescue in the Cold: Ratthew almost freezes to death while living on the streets with the stolen files. He is secretly rescued and delivered near the hospital by Clementine (now around 26 years old), though he only remembers a warm, gentle shadow helping him. • Intern Meets Barney & Toby: ◦ Barney visits the hospital daily for black coffee and forms an immediate "anomaly connection" with Intern. Barney reveals his black-eyed anomaly state via a polaroid photo, leaving it as a secret bond between them. ◦ Intern introduces Barney to Toby (a 3-eyed anomaly). Barney takes on a protective, Big Brother role for Toby, teaching him how to hide from staff while Intern constantly reminds Barney that Toby is "too dumb to become a murderer". ◦ Secretary (Dartmoor Sheep) develops an intense crush on Barney. Barney flirts back as a tragic coping mechanism to feel like a normal person, though he secretly knows he cannot reciprocate. • The Asian Highway Flooding (Present Day): Heavy rainfall floods the city's Asian Highway hub, driving a surge of marine species (sharks, anglerfish, catfish) into the sewer underbelly. ◦ Liloana (an anglerfish who lost her eye to Psycho the lizard) joins forces with Liz and Ratthew to investigate Animal Corp from the sewers. Unbeknownst to her, she is already in Stage 1–2 of the slime infection, held stable only by her innocent, loving nature. ◦ Newscaster (Intern's eldest sister and corporate PR anchor) continues to broadcast government lies that anomalies do not exist, completely denying Intern's uncanny state whenever she visits home.
