Name of Species: Cat Yokai | Bakeneko - Nekomata - Kasha
Traits:
• Shapeshifting | Bakeneko can shapeshift into a variety of forms, including that of humans, monsters, and other cats.
• Re-Animation | Bakeneko possess the uncanny ability to bring corpses back to life and use them as puppets.
• Ghost Fire | Cats have the ability to summon and use a ghostly fire for protection, misdeeds, or fighting.
• Poison Resistance | Once they have grown enough, Bakeneko find themselves resistance to many kinds of poisonous and toxic substances.
• Nekomata | Nekomata are much more malevolent, but not necessarily stronger varieties of Bakeneko. Oftentimes, Nekomata have grown to exponential sizes and have the ability to enslave and blackmail the minds of weaker creatures (NPC use only. OOC permission required for use on other players.)
• Kasha | Kasha are the most malevolent sort of cat yokai. Once a Nekomata has grown further and become more malevolent, they will transform into a monstrous version of themselves with a never-ending hunger for flesh. Kasha control not only ghost fire, but hell fire, as well as lightning.
Flaws:
• Bakeneko shapeshifting is far from perfect. They cannot hold shapes for too long and often will display their physical feline attributes if a single transformation gets exhausted.
• Known to be cursed beings, Bakeneko often find themselves persecuted and killed off in many cultures for their innate malevolence.
• The malevolence and size of Nekomata makes their social and academic lives difficult. If they have exhausted their shapeshifting, their large true form will not fit inside small rooms. Additionally, they hunger for humans and other creatures regularly. Kasha find shapeshifting very exhaustive and have a never-ending hunger for flesh and destruction.
Baseline Dimension: From average domestic cat height, to human size. Nekomata and Kasha specifically can be many meters high and/or long.
Baseline Appearance: Bakeneko generally appear as basic cats, some of which can stand and walk on their hindlegs. In human form, oftentimes their feline ears, tail, claws, and fangs are visible.
Culture/Origin of Species: Bakeneko begin their lives as ordinary, unintelligent domestic cats. Upon growing older and hitting what is deemed a long period of time to have lived, the felines become self-aware and gain the ability to speak common languages. As they grow, they often become larger in size, sometimes reaching human height when standing, and learn many types of uncanny innate abilities. Bakeneko are innately malevolent and mischievous. If a Bakeneko lives long enough and grows in their malevolent nature, they become a Nekomata-- a larger and darker version of a Bakeneko, and possess a forked or two tails. Nekomata tend to prey on other beings, specifically humans. Kasha are the epitome of cat malevolence and exclusively prey on flesh.
