Somehow, somewhere, scientists managed to combine human and animal DNA. Somehow, they created hybrids of various species. Somehow, some of these escaped. They ran away from their creators because many of them were intended for pleasure, treated as less than the animals they came from, despite their heightened intelligence. Many of these did not know where to go and wandered, seeking kindness from strangers that saw them as freaks, as the scientists' mistakes. Some found homes, but many were left on the streets, selling themselves for food, sleeping with strangers because it meant shelter for just one more night.
But there was a place for them. This place was so full of crime and corruption that these new creatures didn't bother anyone any, so more and more of these hybrids came. A few scientists moved there to continue their experiments, hiring themselves out as people paid them for their creations. It wasn't the best life, but at least it gave them a chance. Prostitution and dancing in the local clubs were the two main professions, though that wasn't all that the city had to offer. People, for the most part, got along, despite the violence, and this worked fine. Some weren't as tolerant as others, but they were ignored, mostly. The laws were mostly unwritten, since there were almost no police that cared about anything but getting paid; everyone took care of themselves and maybe the ones that they cared about. That was just how things were in Duskwood.
