So, You are one of the few humans on Animalus. Given the fact that you have no natural weapons or defences, by law, once you turn eighteen, you are allowed to carry a knife for your personal protection. However, by law, you are only to use it if your life, or those of your loved ones, are in danger. The length of the handle is from an inch above the knuckle of your pointer finger, to an inch past the knuckle of your pinky. The blade is the distance from the tip of your thumb to the tip of you pinky. (Use your hand and make the 'call me' sign, and you got the idea on the length.) Also, by law, it must be carried out in the open, in a sheath on your belt, as concealing a weapon is punishible by five years worth of prison or being placed under house arrest. Also, no hybrid, with the exception of those out hunting, in the poilce or military, or the Wild Beasts, can carry a weapon out in public, concealed or otherwise. After dogs and cats have claws and teeth, and others have horns, and powerful hooves, and the like.
Now, are you a BORN human, someone that had at least one hybrid parent, and you lucked out on the genetics rulelet, or, are you a rareer PURE human, who has NO hybrids in their ancesteral line? (In-laws of ones aunts and uncles don't count)
