Therianthropes are youkai who normally live as humans, but become animals under certain circumstances.

When they are living as humans, this does not mean they are pretending to be human. Rather, they are practically no different from humans. (*1)

When they become animals, though, their physical abilities abruptly increase, and they become as powerful as beasts.

However, many of them retain human memories, so they are often more intelligent than beasts.

While they rarely attack humans, their habitat range is closely related to that of humans, so caution is necessary.

Therianthropy can be hereditary or acquired. In contrast to the hereditary type, which is decided by lineage, acquired therianthropy occurs by being cursed or enchanted or having a magic spell cast upon one.

Numerous hereditary therianthropes assume a completely animal form when they animalize, but acquired ones often become animals that are nearly human. (*2)

Also, the conditions that cause animalizing vary, but the major ones include looking at a full moon, drinking wine, becoming genuinely angry, and being doused with water. (*3)

There are times when excited therianthropes lay waste to a village, but in main, most therianthropes coexist peaceably with humans, helping with manual labor projects or using their abilities to drive away youkai.

If one shows more fear than necessary, even a therianthrope will become agitated, putting one in danger.

At such times, stay calm and attempt to engage in natural conversation, such as "My, your fur coat looks even better than usual today," or "Say, who did your magnificent horns? Not THE Jinbei Echigoya?" (*4)
