About the village of Tigrisville Welcome to Tigrisville, a village that has been suspended in time! Over 100 years ago, a small village of anthropomorphic animals found it was impossible to live beside humans. One of the anthros named "Tigris" decided it would be best for them to create a village of their own and surrounded it by a high brick wall, segregating themselves from the human world. The humans that lived near the brick wall feared the anthros and feared what they could be plotting on the other side of the wall. "Bombs? Tanks? Would they try to wage war on humankind?", they thought. This urged the humans to try destroying the walls and homes that were still under construction, trying to push the anthros off their land. The anthros were flabbergasted! Many of their homes were on fire, all their hard labor had been for naught! This was when Tigris devised the plan to complete the wall and write a document stating that "No human nor anthro may enter Tigrisville if they are not born within the Wall." Though, with the discovery of the anthro village of Wolf Cove, this law has been rewritten to include that anthro visitors must have government-issued pass given to them by Tigrisville inhabitants. They named the town after her, and her only current living-relative is her great-granddaughter, Tig Willow (named after her). After many decades, the anthros of Tigville live just as they had when the village was first built in the 1890s. It is by choice that the residents live in the era that they decided to portray, most who live in the 1920s and 1960s (early and late). Some had adapted newer technologies, all houses are required to have at least 1 telephone in case of emergencies (house fires are a severe problem that can happen in old houses with bare-wires), some of the businesses such as the general store are equipped with computers that have the internet so they can import items from the outside-world for the townsfolks to purchase. Their hospital is in an old-fashioned building but it is equipped with modern technology such as x-rays, CAT scans, and so forth, but the hospital also caters to some of the townsfolk that believe in herbal healing and magic. |
