In some forgotten pocket beyond space-time exists a world quite similar to our own. Picture an Earth with one continent, if one with numerous lakes and rivers, with humans coexisting with your typical sci-fi and fantasy fare, and that summarizes what it looks like. But it has further difference; not only is vore an integral part of society, it's a way to live forever and the only way to eat meat (beyond livestock for civilized anthros and humans, etc.)! It has been dubbed Stretchland because of this; almost any animal can eat almost any animal, because their tissue is made to expand as such. Even jaws unhinge to make room for more; the only thing keeping your cat from eating you is lack of motivation, various difficulties and the fact you'd probably win a fight. Also, all organisms that one can imagine having something actually important to say speak the same language.<br/><br/>The Strechish creatures have a strange way of going about vore. When you devour and digest a creature, it and all the creatures it's eaten, etc., enter a sort of mental database containing the instructions for the genes of all those who donated their bodies to you. There are several rules of thumb to go about this;<br/><br/>If it speaks, you must revive it at some point in time. If you don't, the creature's ghost has full reason to haunt you.<br/><br/>Generally, one should eat creatures that don't speak, like livestock and small critters, to have enough energy to revive the ones that do.<br/><br/>Devouring somebody and holding them there until expiration- which happens when nobody remembers them any more- is considered murder. Effective murder, nonetheless.<br/><br/>Devouring somebody is something that should be done with reasonable amounts of respect to them and the sacrifice they're making for you.<br/><br/>After you devour a speech capable creature, there are several ways to bring it back. Most of them are ritual or religious, but now there are machines to do it for you that take either cash or the energy required to create them. I'm not going into detail on the other methods because that's the fun part!<br/><br/>There's also something called INA (what intelligent food is reduced to, Instructional Nucleic Acids) Rebirth. You can insert any INA "file" into your reproductive organs to have them brought back as your offspring the next time you fertilise. This is actually quite complex when the parent genes come into play. A "pure" rebirth with no interference from parent beyond fertilization and nutrition will be born to the species of the father, mother or sometimes original with all other traits of the original. The INA "holder" may decide if it wants this or "mixed", which it has little control over. Mixed introduces parent genes, such as coloration, personality, species, that sometimes mix with the originals and others overrides/is overrided by them.<br/><br/>So, that's about it.<br/><br/>Name:<br/>Gender:<br/>Height:<br/>Species:<br/>Appearance:<br/>About:<br/>Extra:<br/><br/><br/>About (Personality, information, history):<br/>Extra (Usually for vore related attributes):
