Line 26:

'''Pheromones:''' Therian Agents have the ability to emit a pheromone scent that acts as a very potent anti-inhibition drug upon anyone exposed to it, causing them to act in ways without regard for safety or modesty. These pheromones can be released by touch or through the air, can be released whether in human or lupine form, and have an immediate effect upon others that lasts for up to six hours. Most Therian Agents release their pheromones in order to make their opposition fight without regard for strategy or their own safety, as many will keep fighting until killed or restrained. Therian Agents are immune to the effects of their own pheromones, and are moderately aroused by the effects of another Agent’s emissions (additional emissions increase the arousal effect). Protected senses, and wearing breathing protection, will protect from the effect.

'''Power Creation:''' While Therian Agents possess an ability similar to Nightbreed in that they can secrete a serum that allows them to transform others into Therians, only the method used to transform Beta Nightbreed (the organic solution passed through a blood transfusion) can safely allow the creation of a Therian Agent.

Therians created by simply being bitten by an Agent while in either lupine form will become a ‘free-ranger’ – possessing the abilities of a Therian Agent ONLY in lupine form, with no control over the transformation and with no human intelligence during the period of transformation (being six to twelve hours per transformation). Free-range Therians are almost identical in appearance and attitude to the ‘werewolves’ of legend (and the medical condition known in the Wizarding World). There is no reversing the condition; free-range Therians cannot be rid of their abilities, as the nanotech assimilation within their bodies is permanent. However, they CAN totally supress their abilities and transformations by the use of the substance known as Delmitrium-157 (or also by its street name of ‘flush’.)

Therians created by simply being bitten by an Agent while in either lupine form - and being exposed to the pure form of the TRAPD solution - will become a ‘free-ranger’ – possessing the abilities of a Therian Agent ONLY in lupine form, with no control over the transformation and with no human intelligence during the period of transformation (being six to twelve hours per transformation). Free-range Therians are almost identical in appearance and attitude to the ‘werewolves’ of legend (and the medical condition known in the Wizarding World).

The single exception to a free-range Therian's abilities is that, in human form, they DO possess enhanced physical and healing abilities. These, of course, are also surpressed by the use of 'flush'. Some 'free-range' Therians, upon learning about their condition in full, have chosen to wear Mark 40 regulators: these are wrist-worn devices that resemble watches, which constantly monitor the wearer's condition. If they detect the beginning stages of the transformation, they will inject the wearer with a concentrated dose of 'flush' that negates the abilities for a full twenty-four hours and reverses the transformation. Each wrist monitor carries enough 'flush' for three injections, and also has GPS tracking capability.
