looking for a specific kind of AU

[ratcreature]

I'm looking for AUs in which Sheppard belongs to a despised, oppressed, and/or feared group or minority. Bonus points if that comes with special abilities that are then nevertheless exploited, but that's not a must. Examples for what I have in mind would be Aegis by Leah and Springwoof, M Is for Monster by Seleneheart, or Dearest by Lavvyan.

Does slave!John count? Finding Home (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=10031) by Raicara, McShep, John/others, NC-17, non-con/rape, abuse, AU (WIP?).

Oh, and the John-in-the-box one, maybe - The Crate (http://web.archive.org/web/20070111054524/rosemending.livejournal.com/121078.html) by rosemending, McShep, AU, crack-ish.

ETA: Forgot to ask if you were counting BDSM-ish society AUs as well - there's at least a few in which John's the bottom (or the AU equivalent of not being in charge of his own life 99% of the time), which might fit your request...?

Thanks! Though I'm not really looking for stories with bug!John where he's feared because of the transformation (though if there are any out there not yet on my thematic list for this I'd love to hear about them).

BDSM AUs aren't really what I meant, I had more the X-Men mutant kind of premise in mind. You know, feared minority, still does their duty to safe humanity, that kind of thing.
