'''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’.) ▼
'''The Leash Codes:''' Because of the nanotechnology that gives them their powers, every Agent of Therian Thirty can be controlled by devices that send out a specific override code. This code can be transmitted by any electrical device capable or recieving transmission signals (radios, TV, cellphones, modem-capable computers, GPS devices, etc.). While any Agent can be specifically remote-controlled or tasked to perform a specific task or series of tasks without being aware of such, only four signals have been encoded for transmission to all Agents: 'Baseline' (revert and remain in human form until further notice), 'Frenzy' (attack all targets until slain or ordered to disengage), 'Home' (return to the Denver, Colorado staging area) and 'Sleep' (this command triggers a massive, systemwide failure in the nanotech, which also causes the organic components to suffer catastrophic organ failure followed by immediate, painless death).

At present, very little is known of Therian Thirty, as the project went into hibernation with the death of Bakeson. There are, however, Therian Agents working with the WLF, and providing sigificant funding, access to government materials and facilities, and needed samples of various products (including research-grade supplies of ‘flush’, and pure samples of required mystical pharmaceuticals). It is assumed that they are simply acting under orders given before Bakeson’s demise, or have begun to operate as a rogue agency.
