Homebrew Neko (Catgirl/Catboy) Species Details

Emerging from the shadows and breaking free of your chains as a homunculus servant Neko embody a spirit of resilience and madness... and are also kinda cute. Catgirls are small sized humanoids that look very similar to human & elvish children. They have cats ears, long furry tails and, occasionally whiskers. Their hands are structurally humananoid and have curved nails/claws that are retractable. Unlike humans Neko's are not born; they are made. Through dark alchemy and mad science magicians, sorcerers, alchemists forge Neko's together by harvesting "ingredients" and fusing together the soul of a cat and the soul of a human. It is theorized that there are many variants of "Nekos" depending on which animal was used in the soul forging process. The traditional Neko are a bit smaller than the usual catfolk or tabaxi and lack in physical strength of their cat and human brethren. However, they are fleet of foot and very cute.
