Description[]
They are creatures that have been living with humans, keeping a low profile as to not be discovered. They don't usually interact with humans[1]. Kemonos have the tendency to protect their own personal ecosystem so as a rule, when they do anything, they make sure humans don't find about them. In rare cases, some kemonos will deviate from the rule and as a result, the deviant kemonos attack humans and gets exterminated by them.[2]Kemonos live off by feeding all of the energies humans give off.
