General Information about the game's story (not story mode)
Accoring to the game's story, more than 100 years ago people lived in harmony with all creatures. Everything was perfect until the seven dark princes (Amon, Shaxexhal, Ootarus,Ceidal, Melabar, Hanmaland and Luenar) decided to conquer the world of the living. Seeing the chaos the seven princes had brought on the world, the animal spirit gave the power of shapeshifting to Earth's most capable warriors to defeat the princes. The warriors were successful in defeated the dark lords and sealed them away to make sure they won't bother earth again. But now the seal has broken and Demons have spread all around the globe causing chaos. But while the demons were kept sealed, the warriors passed on their shapeshifting abilities to new generations. The 21 year old Christopher Aidens is proven to be the succesor of the Wolf warrior, who can also copy abilities of other shapeshifters, but he doesn't learn about this until he finaly sees it for himself when he is attacked by a lesser demon while he was on a walk with his friends Lars, Victoria, Chloe and Edward, which proves that in order for a shapeshifter to be able to transform for the first time, they need to experience very strong sense of anger,sadness or stress. The Animal spirit guides him on his quest to find all the other shapeshifters and destroy the dark lords, this time for all eternity, by showing him visions.

Prologue
The narrator starts explaining what has happened before the time the game takes place (previous paragraph) and at the end of the prologue the game takes us to Chris' prison cell.

Chapter One: Free at last
Chris wakes up in his prison cell after he got involved in a fight which resulted with the other man ending in the hospital. He stands up and takes a glance at the outside world from a small hole on the wall of his cell. A fellow prisoner then asks him "Who are you thinking about boy?", Chris then turns and looks at him without saying a single word. The prisoner then says "Hm, so you don't like talk much. Well, you could at least tell me your name, since you're gonna share this cell for as long as we're here" Chris sits on the floor and says "It's Chris." The prisoner then says "Wow, finally some words came out of that mouth of yours. Well Chris, I'm Harry." they both shake hands and sit next to each other. Harry then asks Chris again "Mind if I ask you how you ended up here? I mean, sure it may be personal, but you don't look like prison is a place you should be in" Chris then says "It's really complicated" Harry replies "Hey, don't hold your thoughts inside you man. You can trust me. C'mon tell me what happened" Chris then smiles and says "You're persistant, aren't you? Fine, you seem like a nice guy, so I'll tell you. You see there's this girl that I like, a lot of sh#t has happened between the two of us and she learned how I felt. Turns out she likes to complicate things. She started a relationship, to see how I'd react, with another guy whom I've known for a really long time, and I can tell you he's propably the most f*cking annoying being on earth. He approached me one day demanding that I wouldn't talk to her again. Two minutes later my foot was touching his sh*thole of a face. Little bast*rd had called the police though and within minutes I was in a police car on my way to this cell." Harry stares at Chris shocked after the story he had heard and says "What about the guy? You didn't kill him, did you?" and Chris replied "Of course not. I'd never kill another human being. He's at the hospital with only some broken bones. Huh, wonder how much of an idiot she thinks that I am right now, even if I said that he was the one who started the fight, she'd propably not give a sh*t. She got what she wanted, I reacted in the worst way I could." Harry then tries to comfort him by saying "Don't blame yourself for this mess man. The other guy had it coming, besides if she wants to see how you react when you see her with someone else, maybe she's not worth your time. Sure you can still be friends if you want to but if you want my opinion, she doesn't deserve a guy like you by her side. And don't worry, you haven't commited a crime that big. They'll propably release you in a few days. This is my third time in this cell so I've learned a few things." A guard then comes in and says "Prisoner: Christopher Aidens, you're lucky. Your friends have paid for your release. Proceed through the gate to see them." Harry then says "See, I told you. Go your friends are waiting for you" and before leaving Chris looks back at him and says "Hey, Harry. When you get outta here, let's go get some beers" Harry then smiles and says "I'd like that buddy". When Chris exits the building he sees Chloe, Lars, Edward and Victoria waiting for him with open arms. He immediately hugs them and says "It's good to be back guys" and Lars responds "Just make sure to not get thrown in prison again. You know how much we had to pay for your release?!" Chris then laughs and says "Well since it was for me I guess it would at least cost you your house" Victoria then interrupts them "C'mon guys, our friend just came out of prison and we're discussing about money?! Let's head back the appartment, drinks are on me" Chris then smiles at her saying "You always know how to make me feel relaxed." Victoria then blushes and Chloe whispers in her ear "You thinking what I'm thinking?" and Edward tells them "You know we can hear you right" Chris laughs and says "C'mon enough talk let's head back home" (I'll right the rest of the chapter when I finish it)

She knows Chris likes her but acts as if she doesn't care, despite the fact that they know each other since childhood and that one's family members are good friends with the other's, and therefore makes short-ranged relationships to make him jealous.

In combat she uses her claws, teeth and flexibility to defeat her enemies.

Victoria Travers - A novice psychologist and the second love cantidate of Chris.

At first Chris thought of her as his little sister, but he then started developing feelings for her, but didn't want to confess his love because he was afraid it would ruin their friendship. She gained her Wolf transformation when she was captured by the lesser demon that attacked her and her friends and resulted in Chris transforming into a Wolf in order to save her, but he accidentaly wounds her hand with his teeth before strangling the demon. Neither her or Chris were aware of the situation until it was her turn to fight a demon. She is faster than Chris but she's not even close to his power level.
