The rumors are true. All the stories that you heard around the campfire--the ones about some humans carrying the ability to shift into a bloodthirsty animal--they aren't just stories, and it has been twisted to believe that shifters are dangerous.
Bullshit.
Sure, there are some that seek human blood, but the non-shifters have a habit of craving the very same thing. They are no better.
Either way, we are hunted and ridiculed relentlessly. They want to run tests on us to see if there is a cure. Have they ever considered the fact that some of us like who we are? Doesn't matter to them though. Just of a bunch of test subjects. Oversized lab rats.
I think it is time for us to stand up and fight for our right to be different--special. Sure the killers are out there, but everyone has the right to choose their own path. The main question is:
TWIG , I am Twig, the owner/creator of TBW. I have been roleplaying for about ten years, mostly animals, but shifters are something I've always been interested in. Hover over my image to have a look at my profile and my characters.
GLOBAL MOD , Auditions will be held soon.

Here you will claim the face of your character, a dorm room (if you are going to the college), an apartment, or a home. Only the face claim is mandatory--the rest is up to you.
Once your characters are accepted, feel free to create a thread to keep track of them. It will make searching for your characters much simpler. ONE THREAD PER MEMBER PLEASE.

Distanced Communication
Any and all cell phone communications go here. If you want to leave voicemails and other such nonsense, there is a sub-board to keep track of your characters' phone info.
This is where your character keeps a journal, or diary through LiveJournal.com. No, you will not create a real LJ account--you will post all journal entries here. ONE THREAD PER CHARACTER.
The Mohl Lab, a much hated facility by the shifters that reside in the area. They claim they only want to make a cure to help the shifters become fully human, because they care, but we know better don't we? The facility is quite large with stark white walls and the stench of sanitation supplies. A smell that every shifter dreads.
Sit back. Relax. Sip your cup of coffee as you read the paper, or surf the web. No matter your pleasure, you can be sure the coffee shop offers a soothing environment. It will also make a great place to meet up with friends. Who knows? You may make new friends over your morning cappuccino.
The Treston Mall has plenty of stores for your shopping needs. Clothes, jewelry, food, furniture, shoes, pets, and more! The teens seem to enjoy wandering the mall for hours on end--it must be a pretty nice hang out...and a great place to spend all of your money.
The highschool is home to the Jaguars, the school football team, as well as your typical teen drama running amok in the halls. It is a place where all teens--including human--feel vulnerable and at the mercy of others.
The perfect place for any shifter to find solace in Treston City. Who would spend time searching through every enclosure to sift real from shifter? Not many. The zoo has a great gift shop, and many different animals. Great for the photographer, artist, or animal lover.
It's not exactly a five star hotel, but it is a great refuge for shifters of all kinds. It is practically abandoned save for the occasional cop drive by, giving them a place to rest peacefully, at least for a little while.

It's dark, dull, and often times creepy. The subway, the inter-working transportation beneath Treston. There are a few abandoned railways that some shifters like to use as hideouts, so long as they can find their way back out. The subway can take you to wherever you need to go!
This board contains all of the streets around Treston. Drive your car, take a walk, hide out in an alleyway...whatever suits you best. Plenty of interesting things happen on the streets of the city.
If you are not hiding out somewhere in an alley or in an abandoned building, some shifters are able to live a semi-normal life in the suburbs. It's an average neighborhood with average neighbors...or not so average. It's probably best to keep your shifting to a minimum with nosy neighbors always peeking through their blinds.
A lush, green field lies in the center of the busy park, lined with trees and benches all along the smoothly paved sidewalk. There is a pond further past the sidewalk where the ducks reside, but who ever said it was wrong to play chase with them, or take a swim? There's also a small playground, with creaky metal swings and a slide.
Welcome to the four year frat party at TCU! You do have your average school lovers, but the school is well known for the parties and just about anything else you can imagine. It's a great place to blend in...or stand out. They say some people find out who they really are during college. Going to the college is optional.
Welcome to the Eight Ball club! Under 18 is not allowed, though the fake ID has been known to slip by every now and again. Lots of loud music, bright flashing lights, and drinks to wash the night away.
Welcome to Shady Heights! There are plenty of available apartments for you to move into, with good space. There are a few sizes to choose from so you can opt to have roommates or live on your lonesome. The price on the rooms are good too. To get a room number and roommates, the application can be found inside.
Welcome to Lifeline Hospital, where we treat all injuries both small and large. They also perform surgeries and aid in child birth. Be watchful though; the hospital does have a check from the lab, and the asylum to look for shifters.

Just an average warehouse on the edge of the city that was abandoned quite a long time ago. It offers great shelter, and many shifters find their refuge here.
What better way to escape your worries than taking a walk down the white sandy shores of Sunrise Beach? It's not a heavily inhabited area, leaving for peaceful waves and the occasional bonfire without the residents pitching a fit.
Often times, when a shifter is caught, they are thrown into a "comfy" room here at the Iron Asylum. They believe their shifting is against nature, and attempt to brainwash them into believing the same thing. The asylum is not easy to escape, but it has happened. Just keep your wits about you!

The make-out session central, as some would call it. Others, the movie buffs, obsess over the next big movie premiere and plan out premiere viewings with their friends. Whichever your preference, enjoy the concessions and your movie of choice (if you even watch it)! Welcome to TC Movie Theater!

The carnival here is open year round, weather permitting, and has many attractions. Roller coasters, slides, fun houses, and of course the giant Ferris wheel. Come here for a night of fun!
Owls glare at you from the trees as you traipse through the woods, trees dark and infinitely covered in shadows. Most humans do not dare enter the woods--at least, enter them alone. Many shifters come here to hide after escaping the asylum, or to run from the law. Even the authorities do not dare enter the woods.
New to TBW, and wanna share a little about yourself? Then do so here! We'd love to get to know you and chat. We also have a small section for absences, so please leave a note there if you are going away for a time.
