Legacy of Scale and Shadow {BETA}

You awaken to a lingering sense of disorientation, the certainty that something about your body—and the world—has gone profoundly wrong. The weight beneath the sheets feels unfamiliar, dense and powerful, as if gravity itself has shifted its priorities. When you attempt to move, the response is slow and forceful, accompanied by a faint rasp where the soft rustle of fabric should be. As you sit up and look down, realization strikes with a cold shiver. From the waist down, your human form is gone. In its place is a seamless, centaur-like lower body: a sleek, raptor-shaped torso clad in glossy black scales that catch the morning light like polished obsidian. Whatever happened to you did not leave scars or answers—only a new, terrifying reality, and the question of what this transformation means for your survival.
