Jim’s Lab

* Various naturally occurring species exploited for profit (such as Elves, Kitsunes, and selkies)

## Basic Information

Jim’s Lab could refer to one of a few labs Jim owned and operated throughout the course of TToR, generally used to either extract dolphin happiness, make catgirls and related creatures to sell off at his shop, or make dinosaurs for theme parks. Jim’s lab, according to Millie, was not a good place to be in as all the products created, including herself, were abused and neglected. Only a few products, such as Jim’s Utahraptor, were treated well, but in the case of the dinosaur, it was used to torment, terrify and even eat some of the others.

## History

### Beginnings

Jim’s first lab was built underground in Cark’s backyard. It was small, and only had some stolen genetic tech from Cark’s vault, an operating table, a fridge, and a cage. He used this setup to create the first nekos, which he then decided to sell to people as cloned humanoids had no rights yet. He would get DNA from various cats and various people to keep their gene pool diverse. He would also use it to capture Carnie for an experiment led by Gav. Jim would realize soon enough that he needed to have a bigger lab, and politely requested to have a large room for his lab, which Cark would provide given he doesn’t make anything too dangerous.

### Second Lab

Jim would eventually set up a new lab in Cark’s house, which he decided was much better as he had more room for more equipment, and so he moved all his equipment to that lab and the old one was filled with dirt and buried once it was emptied. He would use this lab to create various machines, such as a time machine, teleporter, more advanced cloning tech, and most notably the Jim Machine. He also continued on with his genetic experiments, including wolfgirls, dragongirls, dinogirls, Snakegirls, and began cloning species of naturally occurring humanoids since most humans didn’t know any better. He also supplied Cark’s Park with various dinosaurs when he needed production to be quicker. Eventually Jim employed his older brother Mij and occasionally his cousin Tim to be his lab assistants. When Carol first died Jim went mad and tried to bring her back, somehow managing to create a living soul. Cark would kick the apes out as a result, but let them back in when he employed them for a new park. Jim would work in this third lab, but mostly stuck to his personal one. He had species like Gorgosaurus, Daspletosaurus, Corythosaurus, and others being abused in his lab, and when he temporarily employed Blonde as a lab assistant she called the authorities on him and much of his equipment was confiscated, the creatures were sent to Cark’s Park to live happier lives, and Jim was banned from cloning any prehistoric animals in the future.

### Third Lab

Under Cark’s leadership Jim would gain access to a 3rd lab, which was used as a way to supply the park with dinosaurs without expensive shipping costs. Jim would mostly breed the dinosaurs here now, with the help of Sucho. He created an AI system for the entire park which would do things like host birthday parties for employees, deliver food, show what future dinosaurs would look like, and schedule therapy sessions. He employed several baboons as lab assistants as well as the dark elf Zoe and the kitsune Julie, but eventually Jim was kicked out due to his mishandling of prehistoric animals in his personal lab, and the assistant Zoe would become the head scientist in his place. The lab would be shut down with the park later for unknown reasons.

### Fourth Lab

Jim would eventually make a fourth lab, and he would specialize in making humanoid products to sell to people, as well as secretly manufacture dinosaurs, such as the hybrid Magnaceratops. Some individuals made in Jim’s lab during this period include Millie and her twin, Claire, Laura, two unnamed young foxgirls, an unnamed slimegirl, a Magnaceratops, a Utahraptor, a Megatherium, an odd plant, and Millie’s unnamed adoptive mother. Aside from help from Jim, Mij and Tim, he would also get help from the Tyrannosaurus Jane, although what happened with her role in the lab is unknown. The lab would temporarily be shut down when Cane, who was enslaved for work there, freed all of Jim’s products and escaped at night. It would later be restarted as though nothing ever happened, and he continues to use it to this day, most recently to help Millie incubate her son.

### Fifth Lab

Jim was temporarily working at Cark’s lab, but when Kate took over after Cark died, Jim quit because he didn’t like women as bosses.

## Parts of Jim’s Lab

### Genetic Engineering Technology

This part of the lab was generally used to obtain DNA and alter it to form a desirable product. In later labs, it would also show exactly what a product would look like as well as point out desirable and undesirable traits of the product.

### Incubators

Jim would use a combination of glass tubes, artificial wombs and fake plastic eggs to serve as incubators for his products, and they would be let out at the age in which they would be born or hatched. There were different sizes for different size classes of creatures, ranging from creatures born as small as a mouse (size A) to creatures born the size of a Dreadnoughtus (size Z).

### Nursery

The nursery was where products would be raised. They wouldn’t be divided by kind or purpose, instead put together based on the time they were “born”. This actually lead to less fatalities than one would think. Millie and her Twin would spend their early days with a young carnivorous dinosaur, for example. Treatment here was noted as mostly better than in the holding pens.

### Holding Pens

The holding pens would be where the juvenile specimens would be put for the rest of their lives until they were bought. Things held in the holding pens were divided by species, and the halls of the holding pen rooms would be categorized by the purpose of the products in it. Most products were starved, and many don’t survive here.
