Kemono

__TOC__
Kemono, are a animal based race, who where born and evolved in the Mythic realm, they have two body variants, one that is more "anthropomorphic" shaped, (Breasts / one set of breasts, straight human like legs, etc.) and then their more animal like body, they all can stand up on two legs, have thumbs, and can have "hair". 
Their name comes from a  Japanese art and character design art form, called 獣, ケモノ, or けもの, (Kemono) all meaning "Beast". Often, they are called "Furries" or a "Furry" but given the culture, and negativity surrounding the name, it's seen more as a slur, and, or, sexual harassment. 
==Appearance==
Most Kemono look exactly like their human realm counter parts, or mythic realm counter parts, in terms of color, patterns, sex dimorphism, diet, breeding, terminology, etc, they can however, have mythic colors in their patterns in their furs, and hair; On that note, Kemono can have hair, or what ever the equivalent is to their species. 
Kemono have two body types, one more anthropomorphic, and the other more animal like, but they all stand on two feet, and can switch to four if necessary, if they have the capability that is. 
They never stand smaller then 2 feet, at adult age, even for the smallest species of animal the Kemono is. 
==Abilities==
Most Kemono have Darkvision, (night vision) and typically have the abilities of their animal species, (Wings, claws, venom, etc) and generally the ability to have magic, and be born with natural magic abilities.
