Plot
Anthros have survived in society since it had first began, undiscovered by most humans. The anthros' parents and the anthros' closest friends are the only ones that know anthros even exist. Anthros know there are other anthros out there, but they usually don't know who is an anthro and who isn't. Most humans, if they found out that anthros existed, would order the government to hunt them to extinction, just like they had with the dragons, which were now extinct.
Or so they thought.
The race known as the dragons has survived, hunted to the brink of extinction during medieval times. The dragons now live in the more wild places of the world. Most humans and anthros believe that they are extinct, but some believe they have survived, and some have even seen them.
What do they have to do with the story?
I was getting there. Not too long ago, the dragons received a message from their ancestors, telling them that the anthros hold the key to their survival. The evil dragons want to use this 'Anthro Key,' as they are calling it, to increase their numbers and wipe out both humans and anthros alike. The good dragons want to find and obtain the key before the evil dragons use it for evil purposes, and to use it to bring the dragon race back to its original population and to live peacefully with both humans and anthros. Some dragons, rogues, they are called, have their own agendas. They tend to work for anyone who pays them with gold or gems.
How will the dragons find these anthros without alarming the humans?
The dragons have sent out dragon anthros, which have always lived with the dragons. All three sides of dragons have dragon anthros on their sides, to seek out the other anthros. The dragon anthros do not have the key, unlike other anthros. The dragons' ancestors have told them this, so they don't waste their time.
This is the slightly-restarted version of DrA's Anthro Key. We will start with the group of anthros from the school having just arrived.
Hyruu's Words of Wisdom/Warning
First, I personally think - and I'm pretty sure that's how AM imagined it - humans aren't the enemies of our Anthros and dragons that are on the "good" side. They're just highly suspicious of them, and the characters on the "bad" side won't make the situation better.
Second, that's highly linked to the first, but Anthros don't want to be enemies with humans. They mostly just want to live a normal life, that's all. So their aim will be to find a way to get accepted like they are, and to do so they have to remain carefully hidden. They must protect their identity at nearly all costs.
And third, you might notice I put "" around good and bad. Honestly, let's say it : most of us aren't really talented to make bad characters just because they're bad and they're not what we want. Having a character that is a baddy just because he's mean, that's boring. In this RP, however, there's no white and black. Both "good" and "bad" only want one thing : having the dragons finally live again instead of hiding like beasts. There's only one thing that changes : what they believe is the good way to achieve this. We call some "bad" because we're taking the point of views of humans and those dragons believe their specie will never regain its prestige as long as there will be humans that could threaten them, this specie having nearly decimated their kind some centuries ago.
The ones we call "good" still believe there's a way to coexist with humans and that the previous war was nothing but a huge misunderstanding, so that they'll do everything to renew the bonds between humans and dragons.
Correct me if I'm wrong somewhere, because I may have done some assumptions. But that's really what I like in this RP, there's no "baddies want to kill goodies", everything can be grey. And yeah, probably a long post for nothing but that's some things I wanted to be clear for everybody.
Anthros- Anthros can be explained as a cross between humans and animals. They look like normal humans, except they usually have animal ears, tails, teeth, and claws. Often they are more athletic than regular humans and have characteristics of whatever type of animal anthro they are. They tend to wear hats or hoods and rarely wear shorts, unless they have small tails or no tails. Can be good, evil, rogue, or loner. Good meaning they would help the good dragons, evil meaning they would help the evil dragons, rogue meaning they would help whoever pays them, loner meaning they won't help any dragons.
Humans- Humans are superstitious creatures. Most of them, if they knew dragons or anthros existed, would be scared or angry and order their government to hunt them down. A small amount of humans believe both exist, and an even smaller amount accept them as creatures of the world. Can be good, evil, or loner. Good meaning they like that anthros and dragons exist, evil means they want them hunted down, loner means that they don't know they exist.
Dragons- Dragons are rare creatures that were almost hunted to extinction by the humans in medieval times. They are trying to revive their race using the 'Anthro Key.' Several types of dragons exist, including all Dragonadopters dragons, from Felidragons to Plesio dragons to the more common western dragons. Can be good, evil, or rogue.

Rules
1.~All DrA Memorial Fan Forum rules apply.

6.~No killing another player's character unless you have their permission.
7.~No swearing. Putting these-->*<-- to beep them out counts as swearing.
8.~One sentence is the minimum for a post. Use proper English, too. That means capitalizing the first word, names, and using punctuation.

Luna went out of her last class, biology. The teacher had always intrigued her, and he had a strange aura about him. She couldn't quite put a finger on why, though. She went to her math class. Lunch was next, and they ate outside.
"Should I go look for them, now?" Nico asked Sarin and Ignitus.
"I think so. Ignitus, your thoughts?" Sarin asked.
Scorpio went to his next class, biology. He sat down in his seat in a way so that his tail was not squished.
Jay found his way to his next class. He couldn't do all of the work everyone else could, but he could still listen and learn.
