2112: A Chimera's Perspective
2112
A Chimera's Perspective
We live in a world of Crisis
Millions upon billions died as the major faiths looked on
Impotent as newly born babes
People abandoned organized religion to turn inward
Mecca is a smoldering crater in the radioactive wasteland that was the Middle East
I've been there and it's not a pretty picture by any stretch of the imagination
Vatican City is a smoldering crater in Italy
Much of Europe is better but not by much
America was once a shining beacon of prosperity and entertainment
But now it is no more
Splintered into five nations that fight amongst themselves
I worked for them all in one capacity or another
The Union of Territories, The Nation of Latter Day Saints, The North American Theological Coalition, The Republic of Texas and Atlantyz
These are the names of the new nations of North America
Each one carving out territory as is their wont
The Union of Territories could have called itself Icebox Nation
Washington, Oregon, British Columbia, Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and what was the Dakotas
All that territory is part of the Union
As well as what as called the Yukon and Northwest Territories
The Nation of Latter Day Saints is one of two religious nations but also the smallest
Utah, Nevada and what's left of California are what it controls
Heavily religious but as long as that's your faith you're all set
But only humans have rights, Chimeras like me and simulacrum have no rights
The Republic of Texas is another large nation of not just Texas
Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Arizona and all of Mexico (Old and New)
Natives of Old Mexico don't like gringos ordering them around
Texas wants Mississippi too but Atlantyz has that territory.
Atlantyz is where I live by choice and it claims the entire Eastern sea board
From Newfoundland, Labrador and Quebec up north
Through to Florida, Alabama and Mississippi in the south
The Philadelphia Metroplex in the Province of Pennsylvania is its capital
The North American Theological Coalition controls everything else
Outside of the free cities like Chicago that is
And they are always looking to expand
But the NAT-Cs are the worst when it comes to non-human rights
What the heck is a chimera?
Well, in our world chimera is a catch all term
For anyone who has enough animal and human DNA combined
To look like a humanoid and humanized animal
In 2112 the furry community loves us and we love them
We Chimeras consider those humans still in the Furry Fandom our family
I have not missed an Antrocon, Fur Fright or Fur Affinity United if I could help it
It's one of the reasons I love Atlantyz
Psychics are everywhere now but more prevalent among hybrids
Especially Chimeras like me
The more oppressive nations have trained their citizens to fear us
I'd be shot on sight in Des Moines, the NATC capital for instance
Who am I?
My name is Kodyax Byzarrowulf and I'm a kind of Psychic Street Samurai
I have human, wolf and bear DNA all mixed up in one package
My job takes me all around the world because folks think I'm good
And I do my best not to disappoint them
