Special: Gender-changed. Female to other furries, still male to humans due to RDF. After October 2007, strangers now see her as her physical gender with the human ghost image changed to match. Friends, family, and others who've known him still see the same old Brandon.
Profession: MD at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, general surgery.
Place of Residence: Renton, WA.
Species: Human.
Year Changed: Will Change in '08. Form and Gender to be decided.
Special: Ask before using. Can see through the RDF/Veil if he looks at things the right way. It's very weak for him, regardless. In his late teens/early 20s he was a stoner, mostly hallucinogens like LSD and mescaline. Well-known furry artist, mostly drawn from life.
Note: 16-year old daughter in 2006, changed into fox when she was 13. Widower, wife died in an auto accident when daughter was 4. Not interested in remarrying, so it's a family of two.
Special: Transsexual who got gender-changed just as she was starting HRT. Overjoyed at the new changes to the RDF in 2007. Changing careers and place of residence to take full advantage. Married her boyfriend soon after Tall Tales Con, moved to where everyone would see her as a woman, then promptly got pregnant. Now everyone, human and not, see her as a she.

When Daniel changed, Chris and Jessica were able to see him as a changed child, but they were unable to see other changed until their Changed friend, Sheila introduced herself as one. Even after that, they still mostly see the ghosts of other Changed they know.

Changed in 2004 or 2005 (he won't confirm)

Place of Residence: Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada; Kingston Penitentiary, Drummondville Penitentiary (after the December '07 Riots)
May be one of the first post-Change people to be arrested and convicted. (He was captured and imprisoned in early 2007 for kidnapping Changed hoofed-women to 'form his own herd')
Actually very intelligent, but he plays the 'dumb muscle' to make people underestimate him.
