Omegaverse: An Overview
This is to give you all a general idea about the omegaverse au I'm using for this fanfiction.
There are three secondary genders: Alpha, beta and omega.
Social hierarchy is not determined by one's secondary gender. An omega or beta can also be the head of a family, it doesn't necessarily have to be an alpha. (There is an exception, which you guys will see later.)
Alphas don't have ruts, nor do omegas have heats.
Omegas have a fertile period every month when they are more susceptible to pregnancy. It is a lot like the human menstrual cycle.
All three secondary genders can release pheromones. Pheromones are merely used to convey baser emotions without speech.
All three secondary genders can get pregnant. They need to be the receiver in the relationship to get pregnant. An alpha can impregnate a fellow alpha, beta or omega. A beta can get another beta or omega pregnant. An omega cannot impregnate anyone however.
All omegas, regardless of gender, have a functional uterus, vagina and vulva. Omegan males are not intersex, they do not have a penis. Alpha and beta males who get pregnant develop a birthing canal over the course of pregnancy which ceases to exist after giving birth. It is not an issue for the females as they have the required parts by virtue of their primary gender. There are scent glands on the neck of every individual which when bitten by the dominant partner makes them mates.
Currently the characters who are alphas are Kakashi Hatake, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Shikaku Nara, Itachi and Sasuke Uchiha, and Shikamaru Nara.
Currently the characters who are betas are Mikoto Uchiha, Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki and Biwako Sarutobi.
Currently the characters who are omegas are Obito Uchiha (recessive), Fugaku Uchiha, Mikan Kitashirakawa and Naruto Uzumaki.
