AU Are the Octonauts human?
Hello, sorry that it’s been a while. I’ve come back to talk about my AU that I once posted about during Octo-ber (post below) https://www.tumblr.com/bubblebluejellyblob/796887276805308416/octo-ber-day-8?source=share
In the AU it explains the history of how and why some animals are bipedal and have the intelligence of a human and how all animals are able to think and talk. And even how the Vegimals came to be.
A long time ago, humans used to be the dominant species, but the Earth and their population were dying. A good majority of the animals were extinct, and the humans were being wiped out by deadly virus with no cure. To kill two birds of one stone, the humans created a genetic hybrid of human and animal that they could transfer their minds into. With a human animal body they’re able to keep their intelligence, be immune to the deadly virus, and keep a few of their human physical characteristics while being able to carry out the certain niche of their animal half.
But of course, not every body was created equal.
There are three main kinds: first are the human animals that stayed in their original civilization, they mainly consisted of domesticated animals like pets and cattle hybrids. Those people were the one’s who picked what they wanted to be first, people of high standing, rank, or importance, reason why is that more physical human characteristics were harder to create. Fun fact: they have the most human genetics out of any other human animal and the majority of them are dogs.
The second kind also retain physical human characteristics (bipedal), but now live out in the wild playing apart in the ecosystem, tho they still did retain society things like having camps or programs to teach the young’s on how to properly carry out animal niches and stayed in contact with normal civilization. The hybrids mainly consist of mammals, but does have a few outliers like reptiles. These people were from a mid-high and middle rank/class of standing and had second picks of what they wanted to be.
The last kind also lived out in the wild to tend to the ecosystem but the main difference is that they had little to no physical human characteristics. These human animal bodies were only meant to hold the intelligent mind of a human so they could function more efficiently in their habitat. When they were placed out into the wild, they were completely cut off from any contact to civilization. It was only until decades later that they were slowly integrated back into it. The people consisted of it were of the lowest class, their choice was either to become a wild animal or die.
There is still a lot of things in this AU like how the Vegimals were made and the main conflict between civilization and the wild. But I don’t want this too get too long, and thank you for staying to read all of it 🩵🩵🩵🩵
