As technology advances the constant arms race in the entertainment and leisure industry bustles along quickly as ever. Several years ago dinosaurs returned to the earth in a theme park.

Now Science shall delve even further, breaking the boundaries of imagination itself to bring legendary monsters to the world with genetic engineering!

...in a for profit zoo
Character Creation
It had been over a decade since the first ever successful dinosaur park was opened.

The magic of it sweapt up the public and as with all successful business ventures, copycats sprang up.

The world saw a deluge of wannabes competing with eachother for attention.

Some had had marketed themselves on scientific accuracy to the original animals, others...did not.

Ever since you first walked through the gates of one you knew you needed a peice of the action!

But you weren't like those vain hucksters, you had originality and an idea!

You were going to use generic engineering and hybridization to bring fantastical monsters and creatures of fantasy to life!


It hadn't been easy.

Between the permits, and the land rights and all the protestors. But you had done it!

The lab was secured. The land in the starting stages of development. And now the creatures needed to be created!

And you will oversee that creation

Justin Price was a man who would claim most simply didn't understand.

And most would in turn claim that was because he was simply impossible to understand.

He had an odd charisma that took him far in business and when his quirks got him in hot water he showed his true colors as a legal prodigy.

But all that boring fluff was past, this is the here and now and in the here and now Mr Price was strolling into the special made genetic engineering lab to check on the status of his projects.

It was the best his money could buy!

...which is to say still leagues below the major places opulent on site labs. But it would do the job.

"Ah Mr Price!" He was welcomed by one of his head scientists, Dr Sarah Tanaka. A Japanese American woman with short dark hair in her early twenties. She was a prodigy who had earned her degrees in high-school.

"Sarah! How have you been! And the projects?"

"I'm good! And the projects-"

"Require your impute sir." Cut in a British accent.

Walking into the scene was another of your head workers, a stern faced man in his 50s with greying brown hair.

Professor Markus Morris

"Professor M&M!"

"Stop calling me that!" He snapped. He had burnt too many bridges back in the isles to turn down any work he could get, even from a man like Price.

"Yeah yeah, so whatha need?"

"The dragon is well underway thanks to how long we've been working on it and the unicorn and pegasai were simple enough but we need you check off on several other things."

Price smirked "Lay em on me"

"Well-" Dr Tanaka cut in "While we've got the right ape DNA balance for the sasquatch we need to alter it for the Yeti and we have two options, either adding polar bear DNA or inserting the albinism gene in. The polar bear would mean we could actually keep it in an arctic habitat for authenticity!"

"And the Albinism will be a much simpler process with less potential for error" Professor Morris added before continuing "And while we're at it I'd like to call for a canceling of Dr Tanaka's classical Chimera project, the level of DNA bending is simply too complex to be complete on tim-"

"We've already made the Cerberus so we know how to make multi heads and hybrids are our bread and butter!" She interjected passionately

"It's a simple matter of practicality." The older man. Said crossing his arms
