you cannot hold me captive
welcome to Survival of the Fittest
In the year 3096 humanity left earth forever, much of its history lost due to wars and disaster.
The only leftovers were seized by the last human government—
The Dimiran Empire, formed from the weatlhiest and most advanced conglomerates on the planet.
They quickly colonized seven new homeplanets, each one headed by a different company and humans began to prosper once again.
Now, in the year 5247 the empire thrives on nine planets, but within the last ten years a new form of "entertainment" has shown up within the empire.
Under the guise of scientific study, the government has gathered criminals, slaves, debtors, or contracted individuals to help study the ecosystems of foreign planets.
Those in the experiment are genetically altered to become humanoid monsters with traits similar to animals from earth.
They are then sent to varying planets where they must adapt to survive.
Their struggles are watched through constant livestreams for entertainment.
Unfortunately, you are one these experiments.
Sorry for this.
The premise for this roleplay is that you are a human from one of the nine homeplanets who, due to varying circumstances, are inducted into the experiment, becoming mutated and left to survive in an alien ecosystem. You go through growth spurts to gain adaptations, or improve/modify existing ones. You get to choose the planet you wish to land on, but the landing pods aren't stable so where you land on the planet will be random.

Daniel had already woken up a while ago. Upon arriving on Hel, Dani was surprised at just how hot it was. However, he did live on a cooler planet all his life, so maybe this planet wasn’t really as hot as he thought, and he was just overreacting. Well, at least his fur was short and thin, so he wouldn’t heat up too badly. He felt bad for the thicker-furred animals that had to survive on this planet. Things already seemed to be in his favor, though.
Dani assumed he was some kind of equine or bovine upon looking at his hooves, but looking at his reflection on a glassy rock disappointed him. Of course. Of course he’d have to be a deer. Ha ha, very funny. As if he didn’t feel insecure about being weak enough. There’s no way a deer could survive a harsh wilderness like Hel. Deer are defenseless. He’d be torn apart the second a carnivore found him. And while he didn’t really care if he died in the end, he didn’t want to go out like that, let alone so early in the game.
He had already noticed that his hooves had some sort of spaded form to them- maybe he could attack with these if he was ever in danger. Not like they’d do much, but it was something. He already knew how to pack a punch (and kick) when he was human. They also reminded him of shovels- maybe he could dig into the ground to grow crops with these. Potatoes and carrots were his favorite type of food back home, so if by a small chance he found seeds for crops, he could grow root vegetables.
Daniel Tracy did not care if he lived or died. He wasn’t even sure if he wanted to win if it meant having to go back to his “family.” But he wanted to have a good run before he was out. He had better start getting food, water, and shelter, fast.
One thing is for sure, though. He's never felt more free.

Hot was right, above the sky the unforgiving sun that the desert planet orbited burned brightly to send its rays down to scorch where it got the chance. Unfortunately for Daniel as he looked at the rocks around him it would soon be obvious where he was would soak up more heat than anywhere else. The dark, smooth stones reflecting some of the sun's natural heat making the air hotter than necessary. [break][break]
While the searing rays of the sun made the air hotter it provided even more effects to the aid of the ebony ridges that closed him in. Around their sharp peaks, there were flowers that grew on vines their broad stiff leaves overshadowed by large colorful blossoming buds that seemed to be pointing towards the light and sucking in their warmth.[break][break]
For a moment it might seem like there would be no solace for Dani, but when they would look down there would be grass, it was new even it was very shortly grown and it seemed like it was almost just planted. It was even under the shade, created by the same rock that absorbed all the heat from the sun. They had taken up the entire area and even as he would look to his left and right he would see that the grass path led to a turn on each side, an intersection. While he wouldn't be able to get the full grasp it would be obvious that he was inside some structure made by nature, it was a labyrinth of deadly ridges that could cut and sear flesh at the tip where it was the hottest and the sharpest.[break][break]
The sun was at the tip of the sky, but it had started to tilt over the edge luckily for him the hottest period of the day would be coming to an end within a few hours, though there wasn't much time to think about what he might do next as something made noise within moments of his observations. It was a bird and almost the same size as him it was almost entirely white except for the mask of pink and purple that decorated its face, around its just as prominent orange beak that was slightly agape kept open by an opaque orb which it swallowed soon enough. It had food, seemingly afraid that it would lose any food it might have it quickly stood up, revealing its legs were long and muscular with large feet. It screeched and ran to the side climbing up the side of one of the rocky walls with just its feet. [break][break]
It didn't stay near the top for long as soon after it climbed up it leaped off into flight as it brought its legs back in to reveal that it was capable of flight and bending his legs closer to his body. While this odd avian looking creature had gotten what seemed like fruit there was only grass at his feet and flowers at the edges and corners he could see around him at the moment, which meant that the food was either hidden somewhere else or that there was another place nearby that he would have to travel to. Though there was always the option of staying where he was and eating the grass rather than trying to find his way through.[break][break]
this place left uneasy feelings from the confusing maze that was created in nature, to the odd flamboyant bird that had let out a harsh cry, and this anxiety-filled labyrinth was soon worsened as the sound of something killing the same bird could be heard a few miles in the direction it had disappeared to.

It felt as if a large, cold weight dropped in Daniel’s chest the moment he heard the cry of the monster. He shook off the feeling of dread with a shudder. He knew for sure he wasn’t going in that direction. He was thankful for the death of the bird which alerted him which path not to take...at least for now. Dani felt a tinge of anxiety once it occurred to him he had no idea where the monster would go next, or if it was headed in his direction.
It was best to keep a low profile until he regained his energy, he thought. He stepped out of the sunlight and into the shade provided by a large overhanging rock. It felt cooler, but not by much.
Daniel looked at the grass below him. There was no way he would be eating that. He imagined sitting on all fours, like a real deer, nibbling at the tiny strands that barely sprouted out of the earth. He would never degrade himself in such a way, regardless of whether people were watching him or not. His sense of pride and ego was too strong.
He looked above him, where a small measly flower grew from out of the ground. Daniel let out a bitter sigh. He got it- he was a deer now, but that didn’t make the idea of eating a flower any more appealing to him. But it would have to do until he found something better, just to tide him over. He had to take whatever he could get. He yanked the plant from out of the rock and chewed it in his mouth slowly. Here he was, a 15 year old young man, and he was eating a pretty little flower. What a pansy, he thought of himself.
He resented the feeling of weakness he had over having to resort to the bare minimum for food, but at least it was something. Daniel kept heading north, staying under whatever shade he could find as he walked.

Though as he began to chew and eat the flower that he had been able to procure a sudden tinge would flare across his tongue, heat would fill his mouth as a brief moment of sweetness was soon overshadowed by pain in his mouth.[break][break]
Within a few seconds, the pain would have spread partially down his throat and all over his oral cavity before slowly fading into numbness. When it was finally gone the somberly sweet taste would linger lightly on his tongue before he would feel his stomach growl at him some more. The flower was food but plants didn't provide much energy, especially when your stomach wasn't fully adapted to the foliage of this planet. It would seem that he would either have to look for something more filling or continue to eat the flowers and having to climb the heating rocks.[break][break]
Though the question of what he would do was still lingering in the air there at least seemed to be some kind of solace in the lack of subsequent noises of prey being snatched up and slaughtered within the confines of the stone maze where it would only echo in horror.[break][break]
While thoughts would pass by so would the sun slowly, edging across the sky as seemed like it would take forever, and it seemingly would as the sun continued to beat down upon the landscape, flowers tilting towards the sun more with their necks almost bending like they were made of rubber to face the source of sunlight. At least the Heliotropic nature would allow him to know the constant position of the sun. The mountains that hung in the distance providing a possibility for an hour or two where the sun would either be gon or only peak through slight gaps. Though there was no telling how far away it was as the passage of time was only worsened by the heat's haze. [break][break]
Now that Daniel had a small taste of the heat of the lands directly in his mouth would he continue to sate his hunger or would he try to find ways to satisfy the other? Regardless, the desire to fill them all would linger as things moved on.
