Underage warning:

This fic is set a little bit in the past (2017) making some of the members underage (16-17) at the start of this story.

The age of consent in South Korea (according to Wikipedia at least) is 16, and so is the age of consent in the country where I live in. So to me 16-year-olds and above being able to consent to having sex is normal (as long as the age difference isn't too big tho, like 16 with 26+ would be a bit questionable, even if that's legal). But if that's not the case with you or the laws where you live in, I put this as a warning at the beginning so you guys are aware of this.

This story contains smut between a 17-year-old and an 18-year-old. (With at least two different pairings) But keep in mind that everyone consents and they also grow older as the story progresses, so not all of the smut is underage. And there's also a mention at the beginning of a chapter if there's any smut in it.

Species:

Everyone is a hybrid (unless they have a rare mutation, which automatically makes them a Beta). All hybrid forms are mammals.

The more common types are wolf, fox, big cat, different cat and dog breeds. Rarer types are horses, deers, bunnies (all bunny hybrids are Omegas), red pandas etc. The more rare the animal species is in the wild, the rarer the hybrid of that species is too.

You will either inherit one of your parent's animal species (common), a combination of them if that kind of hybrid can exist (like ligers, mixed breeds, also common) or a species very close to your parent's one (rare).

Hair/fur:

Hair and fur colors are inherited either randomly or with correspondence to your parent's ones. Your natural hair color is the same or similar to your fur in animal form.

Dying your hair doesn't affect your animal form, but if you dye your animal ears/tail in human form, they will stay that color when you transform.

Eyes:

Alphas have either yellow, orange, red, reddish brown or pure black eyes.

Betas have either yellow, green, hazel or brown eyes.

Omegas have either grey, silver, blue, teal or purple eyes.

Eyes are always the same color in both human and animal form, but contact lenses can be worn in human form, usually to hide your secondary gender.

Some people are born with the same eye color they'll have after presenting and others have a different eye color before and after presenting.

The forms:

Everyone has three forms: animal (fully animal), human (fully human), and hybrid.

In hybrid form you have a human body with at least one animal body part showing. Most commonly ears, because they're the most useful and not in the way, and it takes strength, energy and self control to keep your ears and tail in.
