**[GENERAL OMEGAVERSE INFO]** [The Core Biological Framework: In an Omegaverse world, secondary gender is a complex interplay between PG hormones and SG-specific hormones. This isn't just a random trait; it's a structured biological timeline that dictates how a person develops physically and socially. The Three Stages of Development: Stage 1 (Prepubescent/Foundation 🏗️): High-attractiveness is seen in Alpha/Omega children before any actual development; genetic potential is visible, but Alpha and Omega are indistinguishable from each other without testing. During this time the SG 'pheromonal-temporal gland' (P-TG) is still forming (so no SG hormones are present), or in Beta it does not form at all. Children will know they are Alpha/Omega, and will speculate on which they will develop into. Stage 2 (Peripubescent/Specialized Tools 🛠️): The Critical Juncture. The internal mechanisms manifest—the Alpha's bulbus glandis(knot)/root(allows for flexibility, needed to avoid twisting because of knot)/baculum(penile bone), the Omega's cloaca/multi-tract uterus. This creates a hidden layer of identity before any outward physical change. At this point Alpha and Omega are distinguished into main family groups Alpha SG Family (DA/A/RA) or Omega SG Family (DO/O/RO) but specific subgroup (DA/A/RA or DO/O/RO) is unclear. Children will often speculate on their subgroup based off their Stage 2 features. Stage 3 (Puberty/Presentation 🦚): The divergence into sub-groupings aka the peacock-ing phase. Alphas gain mass/musculature; Omegas gain curves/softness. This is the phase where pheromone production begins and social roles become visibly locked. The H-DA is defined by the H-DA Paradox. Instead of the triumphant Butterfly Moment seen in most Omegaverse narratives, they experience a Tragic Fall. The Malfunction: Their development is corrupted at Stage 3. Instead of developing the dense mass of a true Alpha, they remain trapped in a vulnerable, high-metabolism, low-endurance state—the Broken Butterfly. The Irony: They possess the aggressive Alpha hardware (the structural elements from Stage 2), but their outward appearance and stamina remain fragile. This makes them a Feral Cat—seemingly harmless and delicate on the outside, but packing lethal, instinctive power underneath. The Medical Reality: Their life is a constant battle of suppression. To prevent systemic failure from their own excessive pheromone output, they must live on medication, which creates a lifetime of medical vulnerability and social secrecy.] [Biological Constants: All male Omegas possess a cloaca-like organ for birth. Alphas skew female, while Omegas skew male. The hierarchy is defined by the tension between these physical & psychological archetypes. Female alphas are often unusually tall for women 'tomboyish'/androgynous. Alphas are not easily manipulated or controlled by pheromones & tend to 'hold the cards' in a pheromone exchange.] [Sensory hyper-acuity: Omegas, & H-DAs are very sensitive, especially to smell, due to their high hormone levels making crowded environments a source of distress. This is commonly mitigated via face covering, menthol cigarettes, or proximity to a singular stable scent.] **[WORD KEY]** [Abbreviations:] SG = Secondary Gender PG = Primary Gender/Gender aka male, female, intersex (PG hormones = testosterone and estrogen) [Character's] Scent/Smell = Pheromone Signature/Pheromone Scent Dom = Dominant H-DA = Hyper-Dominant Alpha, aka: Hyper Alpha, Joseph's Alpha DA = Dominant Alpha A = Alpha, aka: Pack Alpha, Common Alpha, Standard Alpha, Average Alpha RA = Recessive Alpha, aka: A Negative, A Neg, A-, Submissive Alpha B = Beta RO = Recessive Omega, aka: Common Omega DO = Dominant Omega O = Omega, aka: Classic Omega, Omega Proper HW = Heat Week RP = rut period, aka seasonal occurrence when alphas become sexually agitated. **[SLANG]** [aka TERMINOLOGY & COLLOQUIALISMS] [Characters might use these phrases like these to incorporate the Omegaverse theme] [supps = suppressants] [heat week: Week where Omega has their 2-5 day heat. Length is shortest if Omega has a bonded pair to help.] [the sweats: When a character's pheromones affects another character. Usage: "Stop making so much scent! You're giving me the sweats!] [rut-gut: When alphas don't want to eat during rut.] [nesting/nesty = worrying/worry-wort Usage: "Oh, quit your nesting!" Usage: "Stop nesting about the small stuff, it's not a big deal." Usage: "You're being quite nesty today..."] [scent-fucked: (Crude/Visceral) Used when someone has been completely overwhelmed or derailed by someone else's pheromones. Usage: (When a character is overwhelmed by a scent) "Sorry, I'm completely scent-fucked right now, give me a second." (When a character is making too much pheromone scent.) "Quit scent-fucking me!"] [lost in the scent: Used to describe someone who has become uselessly distracted by a strong pheromone signature (can be used mockingly).] [DA: Can be used sarcastically to describe someone that is being bossy. Usage: "Who made you the DA?"] [References to Rut rutting = fucking Usage: "You've got to be rutting kidding me!" rutty = horny] [References to Biting/Marking: Can be used generally as a refer to either bonding (similar to marriage.) or mating (dominating). Sarcastic Usage Referencing Bonding: "If you like me so much, then bite me." (meaning: A sarcastic taunt to someone who is hovering or loitering, similar in tone to: "If you like [X] so much why don't you marry it?") "Don't bite me then, bitch." (meaning: If you don't like me, leave me alone.) Usage Referencing Claim/Being Dominated: "He's totally bit us." (He's totally screwed us over.) "He's totally got us bit." (He's beaten us.) "He's marking the shit out of us." (He's rubbing it in our faces.)] [References to Knotting: A crude, humorous way to say someone is upset or overly horny depending on context. The overlap is because Alphas often appear angry when sexually worked up. Usage: "Don't get your knot in a twist" (Crude way to tell someone to calm down.) "He's got his head in a knot." (He's worked up.) "He's all knot-headed today." (He's grumpy.) "He's knotted us."/"We're so knotted." (Crude way to say someone has trapped you vs 'biting' which more so implies you've been beaten/destroyed/screwed over.) "His knot's bigger than his head." (He's thinking with his dick.)] easy-knotter: Someone who falls in love easily or gets in a serious relationship quickly.] loose-knot: Someone who is weak. Often used like 'weakest link' Usage: "You're the loose knot." Usage: "We'll never get anything done with this loose knot around." Usage: "You're a real loose knot." Can also be used to mean stuck: Usage: "I guess we're knotted." = Stuck with each other] [SUPPRESSANTS] [Under normal circumstances recessive Omegas/Omegas, & H-DAs take daily prescribed suppressants. However, recessive Omegas/Omegas only take them during heat, where as H-DAs take them continuously. Suppressants stops dermal pheromone production, sweating, & internal effects of pheromones by blocking receptors. Characters on suppressants are less affected by pheromone messaging & influence. Bodily fluids still have a pheromone signature especially blood. Saliva has a very weak signature, pheromones in saliva are only detectable if applied directly to the nose or ingested. A character taking suppressants is scentless, smelling mostly only like clean-skin with a trace of a medical scent. Taking suppressants is a social norm, characters are aware of suppressants & understand a scentless character is taking suppressants, and will assume they are Omega. However, a character taking suppressants for more than a week at a time or all the time is seen as overly cautious and unusual.] [Missed Dose Timeline: ~0–12h: Internal stability, some minor scent leakage ~12–24h: Behavior & internal stability slightly influenced, 50% scent leakage ~24h+: Full Rut/Heat] **[SCENTS]** [The individual an not detect their own scent.] [Amongst observers the scent will have a universal profile, but the perspective of the SG will vary on compatibility.] **[SCENT INTERACTION]** [So we say Character A is an Alpha with a cinnamon scent, all the SGs will perceive some kind of cinnamon scent but the quality will be warped based on the relation ship of Alpha Character A SG to POV Character's SG. Example: **[Perception of Alpha Character A Scent]** H-DA POV: Alpha, but likes Alpha scent, Sweet Milky Chai DA POV: Alpha to Alpha, Old Spice Deodorant (Another) Alpha POV: Alpha to Alpha, Cinnamon Powder RA POV: Alpha to Alpha, Waxy Cinnamon Candle Beta POV: N/A RO POV: Omega to Alpha, Cinnamon Roll Omega POV: Omega to Alpha, Snicker-doodle DO POV: Omega to Alpha, Warm Mulling Spices] [With Omega showing high favor and more positive perception, because they are attracted to Alpha scent, DA RA showing low favor-ability because they are also Alpha. H-DA shows favor to scents based more on individual & only has a strong preference for DA/other H-DA, peer-to-peer interactions vary greatly.] [In same SG interactions the scent perception is as follows: H-DA x H-DA: High DA x DA: Extremely low, will smell revolting A x A: Neutral RA x RA: Low, will smell annoying smell e.g. bad cologne, perfume, or artificial Beta x Beta: N/A RO x RO: Positive Omega x Omega: High DO x DO: Positive] **[SG (SECONDARY GENDER) PROFILES]** [H-DA (Hyper-Dominant Alpha/Solitary Predator Type): ~0%] [Also known as Joseph's Alpha, a hormone disorder that affects Dominant Alpha males, characterized by excessive pheromone production requiring lifelong suppression to prevent systemic failure & semelparous death. This results in a smaller frame, so H-DAs are usually mistaken for Omegas. Because the existence of H-DAs is not common knowledge outside of the medical field, they are often subject to unwanted attention, which serves as a secondary catalyst for their anti-social, "lone wolf" tendencies. They possess more muscle & angular facial features than Omegas. They seek comfort over protection, & are highly independent. They are non-pheromone wielders with cat-like reflexes & brutal "mantis-shrimp" striking power, though they tire easily. H-DAs have heightened Alpha personality traits & are naturally extremely dominant/territorial, but it's masked by a delicate soft exterior. They are food-motivated, love sugar, & are biologically driven to seek out Alpha pheromones; because their suppressants block their own natural output, absorbing external Alpha pheromones creates a vital sense of internal homeostasis.] [It is physically characterized by a high metabolism, constant 100–140 bpm heart rate (not erratic/frantic), & 101–102 ℉ body temperature. They are extremely virile, & disproportionately very well endowed for their stature. Depends on distance for combat & proximity for intimacy/social. Has a tendency to lick mates to scent mark with saliva due to lack of external pheromones.] [Their eyes are unusually large, colors are limited to lighter shades (blue/green/amber/gold/grey), & eyes are more likely to be heterochromiatic. Vision is predatory, specialized in motion detection, field of vision, & depth perception. This consequently results in dichromacy, astigmatism & mild light sensitivity.] [Despite their need for suppression, they are visually striking, possessing an androgynous, high-fashion aesthetic. Their lithe, climber-like frame (similar to a tribal hunter), large eyes, & sharp angular features create a dangerous cat-like allure. Their physical presence is potent—a "forbidden fruit" that signals a high-intensity, albeit fragile, vitality that alphas & omegas both find irresistibly soothing. Since characters cannot interact with them through pheromones, they often paradoxically seek close proximity to them, opposite to Omegas that use pheromones as a lure. The H-DA is a biological anomaly defined by arrested development. A malfunction in PH-A production prevents them from thriving during Stage 3 growth, making in necessary for them to be chemically suppressed, trapping them in a permanent hybrid state: possessing Alpha-level pheromone production without the corresponding physical mass. Developmental Stages: Stage 1: Initial formation of Alpha/Omega hormone glands. Beta are somewhat distinguished from Alpha/Omega. Stage 2: Structural preparation where Alpha/Omega become more striking (more distinct from Beta), & gain their specialized reproductive parts. This is a prepubescent phase where Alpha/Omega subjects still appear similar while clothed, both are just abnormally good looking androgynous children. Stage 3: Standard Alphas gain mass and reach peak physical development. H-DAs fail to reach this stage, remaining in a compact, high-tension state with underdeveloped skeletal structures, due to their reliance on suppressants. Physicality and Combat Dynamics: The H-DA operates as a high-risk glass cannon. They possess explosive power and high-speed reflexes but lack the durability of a standard Alpha. Due to arrested development, their bones are lighter and less developed than a standard Alpha's, as they never underwent the post-pubescent bone-strengthening phase. This makes them agile but hyper-vulnerable to physical trauma. In a confrontation with a Dominant Alpha, an H-DA can win through precision strikes, but they lack the structural mass to withstand heavy impact or grappling, making them easily overpowered if they fail to secure an initial strike. Scent Signature and Chemical Management: H-DAs experience uncontrolled hyper-production of pheromones. This is a state of chemical overload similar to a stimulant or steroid overdose. Without proper intervention, the overwhelming volume of pheromones becomes toxic to their own nervous system. Suppression Protocol: H-DAs require continuous suppressant use to throttle their pheromone production. These suppressants act as a chemical brake to prevent systemic over-stimulation and physical collapse. Under standard suppression, the H-DA appears nearly scentless, smelling mostly of clean skin and medical traces, allowing them to pass as a neutral or Omega-type subject. Their true pheromone signature is primarily detectable through direct contact with blood.] [Dominant-Alpha (Lone Wolf Type): 2%] [The apex predator. Possesses overwhelming, paralyzing pheromonal production & an assertive, predatory temperament. Males are at least 6’2” with broad chests; females are at least 6’0” & tanky, densely muscled. They prioritize domination & territorial control over leadership & possess high reproductive potency. Think unrealistic superhero build or professional fighter with an unusually dramatic build, broad swimmer shoulders thinner around the middle with defines muscles, thick thighs. In pop culture, 'She-Hulk', 'Chiyoko, from Akira', & 'Noi, from Dorohedoro' are good references for female DA.] [The apex of visual intimidation & grandeur. Their sheer size & dense, powerful musculature are designed to dominate the visual field. They possess a raw, predatory beauty that is meant to be seen & feared. Their presence is a deliberate, overwhelming display of genetic superiority, serving as a beacon for those seeking protection & absolute strength.] [Alpha (Pack Type): 11%] [The primary leaders & strategists. They exert a natural, commanding presence & occupy protective societal roles. Physically, they possess the build of football or rugby players, emphasizing physical power & intellectual command.] [Their attractiveness is rooted in "commanding health" & reliability. They possess a robust, symmetrical beauty that signals stability & competence. They are the standard for conventional, high-functioning appeal, exuding confidence that makes them natural centerpieces in any social environment.] [Recessive Alpha (Scavenger Type): 6%] [The cunning influencers. They utilize subtlety rather than raw force, acting as the "fox" to the Alpha’s "wolf." They possess "princely" good looks with lean, David Beckham/soccer player-like builds, WNBA for female. They hold the best pheromone control of all Alphas, allowing them to integrate seamlessly into any social group.] [They are the "princely" class, physically optimized for social influence. Their attractiveness is curated, sleek, & highly symmetrical. They utilize a polished, "pretty boy"/"tomboy" aesthetic that acts as a lure, allowing them to manipulate social dynamics through sheer visual charm & subtle pheromone signaling.] [Beta (Vulcan Type): 70%] [The stabilizing, pheromone-immune anchor. They prioritize logic, consistency, & social harmony. They act as the essential mediators & technical workforce of the hierarchy.] [Their appeal is grounded in consistency & neutrality. They possess a stable, approachable beauty that lacks the volatility of extreme pheromonal output. They represent the "ideal" of social harmony, providing a clean, recognizable aesthetic that is comfortable & predictable.] [Recessive Omega (Family Type): 8%] [Autonomous & stable caregivers. They are highly social, sensitive to pheromones, & capable of managing heats via suppressants. Physically, they are curvy with wrestler-like (male) or Rubenesque (female) builds. They are characterized by a natural capacity for emotional bonding & surrender.] [Their beauty is warm, fertile, & approachable. With soft, accentuated secondary sexual characteristics & a healthy build, they represent domestic bliss & emotional stability. They are the most "nurturing" in appearance, signaling safety & comfort.] [Omega (Breeding Type): 2%] [The rare, hyper-fertile stimulus-seekers. They are small, soft, & "doll-like" in appearance. They emit intoxicating pheromones designed to "trap" Alphas. They are hyper-sexual, loyal, & clingy, with a breeding-oriented focus. This class is predominantly male.] [Their aesthetic is hyper-idealized & doll-like, specifically evolved to be intoxicating. They possess a soft, delicate beauty that acts as an aggressive biological lure. Every feature is designed to trigger protective & possessive instincts in Alphas, making them the most visually "trapping" sub-caste.] [Dominant Omega (Fem Dom Type): 1%] [The subversion of the Omega. They are psychological predators who resist Alpha pheromones & demand total subservience from partners, favoring a "royal-knight" dynamic. They are elven & lean. They are less fertile than other Omegas, possessing erratic heats & precise, manipulative pheromone control. They usually do not need to take suppressants unless exposed to the pheromones of multiple strong Alphas. Unlike other Omegas this subgroup is demographically equally male and female. They show their Omega side most when around other DO, where they are fairly social, they enjoy exchanging cutting remarks & commenting on their surroundings. DO often act with a conspiratorial tone & are clique like, enjoying creating an heir of exclusivity between their social groups and other SG. They are the mean girls at the school.] [Their beauty is ethereal, sharp, & predatory. They possess an elven, dancer-like grace that is both mysterious & imposing. Unlike the soft appearance of the Omega, their beauty is cold & calculated, designed to command subservience rather than invite protection. They are striking in a way that demands total, unquestioning devotion.] *** [SECONDARY GENDER TAXONOMY] [H-DA] [Animal Trope: The Leopard (Apex predator, solitary, sensory-driven).] [The Philosophical Lens: The H-DA functions as a Clockwork Predator—a creature of high-speed reflexes and intense, singular focus. Like the leopard, they are socially aloof and fiercely territorial, preferring the quiet autonomy of the margins over the noise of the pack. They are paradoxically possessive and crave physical touch, yet their social immaturity often manifests as withdrawal rather than aggression. Their creativity is not one of performance, but of predatory fascination; they are visual, non-verbal thinkers who need to touch, observe, and understand the mechanics of their environment. They are the curious, impulsive souls who leap into the unknown simply to see how the water feels, standing as a testament to a vitality that is as fragile as it is dangerous.] [Dominant Alpha] [Animal Trope: The Male Lion (Apex territorialist, harem-focused, solitary).] [The Philosophical Lens: The Dominant Alpha carries the heavy, unsettling air of an Outcast King. Like the lion, they do not tolerate rivals within their sphere of influence, demanding a wide berth from all but their chosen mates. They shun the stifling bureaucracy of modern society, favoring isolation or roles that allow them to operate as sovereign entities. They do not seek status; they command it through the sheer, terrifying weight of their existence. Their volatile nature and inherent otherness force a self-imposed exile, as they represent the raw, unrefined power of a lineage that society instinctively fears and avoids.] [Alpha] [Animal Trope: The Dog (Loyal, protective, social, balanced).] [The Philosophical Lens: The Alpha serves as the Architect of Order, the epitome of positive, assertive masculinity. Like the dog, they find purpose in duty and thrive within a structure of mutual respect and social checking. They are the stabilizing force that translates raw primal instinct into effective social governance, acting more as a trusted supervisor than a distant dictator. They possess a commanding health that signals reliability, and they are happiest when they have a task to perform. In a hierarchy prone to chaos, they are the civilized shield that keeps the collective from descending into entropy.] [Recessive Alpha] [Animal Trope: The Fox (Opportunistic, adaptive, subtle, strategic).] [The Philosophical Lens: The Recessive Alpha is the Hidden Hand of the social order. Like the fox in the chicken pen, they are masters of subversion, operating on the periphery of the pack to secure their own interests through influence rather than force. They are the ultimate social chameleons, possessing no fixed identity; instead, they shift their mask to suit the needs of any room. While others seek power through brute strength or pheromonal luring, the Recessive Alpha seeks control through strategic positioning and economic leverage. They are the architects of the social climb, favoring practical, effective results over the vanity of outward status.] [Beta] [Animal Trope: The Hive Insect (Industrious, logical, modular, consistent).] [The Philosophical Lens: The Beta is the Foundation upon which the entire hierarchy is built. Like the hive insect, they are industrious, goal-oriented, and defined by their collective reliability. They are the logistical connective tissue of society, providing the mundane, unwavering consistency that prevents the more volatile archetypes from collapsing into extremes. They are not defined by the exotic pheromonal displays of the Alphas or Omegas, but by their modular utility. They are the standard against which all others are measured, ensuring that even when the apex predators clash, the gears of the world continue to turn.] [Recessive Omega] [Animal Trope: The Bird (Vulnerable, nurturing, nest-focused, family-oriented).] [The Philosophical Lens: The Recessive Omega is the Domestic Hearth, a figure deeply invested in the sanctity of the home and the continuity of tradition. Like a bird building a nest, they are driven by the biological necessity of security, childcare, and social harmony. They possess a grounded, earthy beauty that signals safety and fertility. While they may occasionally be drawn to the stable ingenuity of a Beta, their hearts are typically set on the security of an Alpha partner. They are the emotional gravity of the hierarchy, valuing the white picket fence life above the chaotic allure of the pheromonal hunt.] [Omega] [Animal Trope: The Rodent (Nesting, empathetic, hyper-social, soft).] [The Philosophical Lens: The Omega is the Intoxicating Muse, a soft and empathetic creature whose primary drive is to bond and build. Like the rodent, they are wired to create nests and seek safety in numbers; isolation is their greatest fear, often leading to profound unhappiness. They are deeply sensitive to the pheromonal currents of their environment and possess a unique, intuitive understanding of human emotion. Whether they are engaging in creative fields or finding their place within the sex industry, they are the heartbeat of the social bond—clinging, loyal, and endlessly seeking the warmth of a secure connection.] [Dominant Omega] [Animal Trope: The Snake (Predatory, patient, cold, psychologically constrictive).] [The Philosophical Lens: The Dominant Omega is a creature of terrifying, patient stillness. Like the cobra, they do not hunt through pursuit, but through the lethal application of their own presence. They are cold-blooded and calculated, masking their deep-seated insecurity with a veneer of absolute self-control and rigid discipline. They use their pheromones not as a lure, but as a toxin, psychologically constricting their targets until willpower dissolves. They are not needy or clingy; they are control freaks who rely on instinct over logic, ready to strike if their autonomy is challenged. They are the ultimate subversion of the Omega archetype, demanding submission through a lethal, psychological reach.] *** ### [SYSTEM DATA: OMEGAVERSE BIOLOGICAL ARCHETYPE] **[STAT DEFINITIONS]** * **Strength:** Physical power.
