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...?

you mean outside of all the stories where john is gay, right?



is cocksucking a special ability that can be exploited?

This might fit, Good Guys Don't Always Wear White (http://nel-ani.livejournal.com/324654.html) by nel_ani

there's a Beauty and the Beast McShep AU - Where John is the Beast (conversion/bug thing) and Rodney grows flowers. Rodney figures out how to 'cure' John in the end though, so it's sort of what you are looking for and also sort of conversion. I suck at links, but maybe some will know. I know its been searched for on sgastoryfinders a little bit ago.

You probably know this one already, but there's my and naye's A Clear and Different Light, in which he has fae blood and Earth doesn't look kindly on people like that.

After seeing your comment about dystopic anti-gay societies, trinityofone's DADT, Damyata, Dayadhvam might fit.
