Nekai

"If a werecat is staring at you in hunger you better make sure it's not a Nekai. Otherwise you might end up inside her dead."

Anucis "Catae Priestess"

Overview
Nekai are a subgroup of humans like elves and dwarves that possess cat ears,claws, and senses and occasionally cat like tails. As a natural magical race Nekai live approximately 200 years and possess a large resistance to monsterization. They are also capable of transforming into a second large cat form with enhanced senses and strengths. Some Nekai however choose to give up this form for greater magical power. Nekai are indegenous to the Nenini desert but in recent years some Nekai have been seen in the Nevarri desert and on the main continent.

Goddess Blessing
Nekai who are born in the homeland or make a pilgrimage to a temple of Catae are blessed with a magical enchantment in the form of dark skin. It provides protection against the suns rays and to those who know how it is capeable of turning their confidence in their bodies that makes their exposed skin into armor.

Sexual Liberty
Nekai largely do the culture they have been raised in have a very open view about sexuality. Provided you are not married your aloud to have sex with anyone as long as they are 15 years or older. This is not to be confused with casual sexuality as most Nekai choose to only be sexually active with their partners. It is this mindset that allows Nekai to be even more resistant to monsterization than elves are.

Diet
Nekai are largely carnivorous although their stomachs are capable of processing any food a human can digest. Nekai are also capable of consuming a certain herb that allows their bodies to absorb Se like a mamono. This was discovered when a rather lewd Nekai but ironically heavily resistant to monsterization wanted to have mamono like sex with her husband.

As monsters and incubus
Nekai once they become monsters and incubus are much the same they were before except they are much more willing to proposition sex and their sexual appetites increase to mamono like levels. While some Nekai may revert to beasts most will choose to continue their life just as it was before they found a mate. Nekai in their cat forms are also rather susceptible of lewd magic after monsterization.
