🌼 The Rat/Mouse

S/He turns into a mouse or rat when hugged by a member of the opposite sex. They are also one of the more respected members and generally have a feud or dislike for the person who is possessed with the spirit of the cat.



🌼 The Ox/Cow

S/He turns into an ox or cow when hugged by a member of the opposite sex. They may have a split personality or two-toned hair to match their animal form.



🌼 The Horse

S/He turns into a horse or pony when hugged by a member of the opposite sex. They are probably stubborn.



🌼 The Monkey

S/He turns into a monkey when hugged by a member of the opposite sex.



🌼 The Rooster/Bird

S/He turns into a rooster or a bird when hugged by a member of the opposite sex.



🌼 The Turtle

S/He turns into a turtle when they are hugged by a member of the same sex. Because of this abnormality and their first appearance in the zodiac family, they have been marked as an outcast, along with their respective relative, the deer.



🌼 The God

Although possessed by a spirit of the curse, s/he does not transform into an animal but instead inhabits an illness and a short life-span, and is the ruling head that the sohma family cannot completely defy due to the zodiac bond.



🌼 Non-Cursed Sohmas

We currently do not have any characters who carry the Sohma family name and are not cursed. This would be interesting to have on board, seeing as they could know about the zodiac bond but are not directly affected by it themselves, or perhaps, never knew about the curse at all, but still have close ties to the zodiac members. They could be aunts, uncles, sisters, brothers, or even a distant cousin or caretaker for the juunishi.



🌼 Outsiders

These are the people who are not cursed or are not kin to the Sohma family. These characters are, therefore, "outsiders" to the curse, who know nothing about the curse, and live their own lives with their own dreams/ambitions. We definitely need more townsfolk to fill occupations, whose supposed normality can balance out the influx of those who are inhabited by the zodiac spirits.
