Do humans realize of the shapeshifters existance? Or is it mainly secretive. Would it be possible to make a human character that suspects as much? Or is it 100& NO CHARACTER COULD EVER KNOW?
I am just trying to get my character bio as accurate as possible. I have some ideas I want to throw into the history but I thought I should ask first.
Another random question: Is this account-per-character?

As far as I know, none of the humans know - or are supposed to know - of shifters. One of our humans has seen people shift before, but passed it off as being drunk/hallucinating/etc. If your character had seen a shifter before, it would be extremely unlikely that they would take it seriously. I mean, if you or I saw a human shift into an animal, we'd probably go "Omigosh I'm going crazy" or "It was a trick of the light." Personally, I'd think it'd be best if the human had never seen shifters. That way it'd be more of a shocker when/if he/she does see someone shift. However, there are a few NPC humans who have seen shifters, but they're all passed off as crazy scientists or old coots or something. x3 I'm only a moderator, so one of the admins(Alex, Toki) or the head moderator(Lore) would probably know for sure. ^_^ And no, it's not a character-per-account place. If you want to make more then one account for your characters, that's fine. But you can have them all on the same account as well. I adore your siggy -watches with starry eyes- ALSO. Welcome to Shelpey Alley~

Rena's pretty much hit the nail on the head.
It's very unlikely a human would suspect anybody of being a Shifter. As Rena explained the first thing that's most likely to happen is that people are going to assume they've gone crazy or were slipped some kind of illegal substance before they honestly believe what they saw was real.
Your character is allowed to suspect something is going on, sure, but whether your character suspects Shifters or not is just.... extremely unlikely. If your character has been seeing wild animals not native to Shelpey everywhere the first thing they're more likely to assume is some kind of illegal animal trafficking gone very, very wrong. I'd advise keeping away from knowing about or even suspecting Shifters because the Shifters themselves are a secretive community and the chances of your character having seen one Shift is highly, highly unlikely. =P
Shelpey Alley is not APC, we are APP: account per player. Although you are allowed to use multiple accounts if you really wish to we much[/b] prefer you stay on one account so it's easier for us to keep track of what character belongs to who in times of activity checks, among other things. I'd recommend you keep only one account and have your characters on that.

Ah I see, I will avoid having any characters know of the shifters than. It wasn't the character itself, but someone in his past. I sort of had a better idea now that you mentioned animal trafficking though... Also, I prefer one account to RP off of, so that's good. It's just too confusing for me to have 5 accounts with all different passwords, but I know some RP sites require them. ;D (Also I just noticed I missed the % sign on my first post. Hopefully that wasn't too confusing.)

Yup. What Lore said. She's so much more well informed then I am ^_^
Your post wasn't at all confusing. Frankly, I didn't even notice you missed the percentage sign. O.o
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask ^_^ I'm sure any of the staffies or even the members would be more then willing to help you out ^^

Just adding on reaaaally quick. ;D If you do feel having too many characters is confusing, you can keep track of all your characters in a character log. ^^
