Suki Clan

The most expansive of them all, the current number of members sits at about 52. They were inspired by the Sohma family from the Fruits Basket anime, and initially shared a lot of similar qualities. Originally called the Akatsuki family, the Suki Clan has since drifted off into its own setting. A high majority of its members are cursed by an ancient fox spirit, causing them to turn into animals based on a few factors; day, night, full moon, and new moon. Many of the clan members are ashamed of their curse, or spiteful of it, though some like to take advantage of their animalistic natures, which can be stronger in some Sukis than others.

The legend
Several decades ago, in 1527 (16th century), a young woman named Yamako Suki worked at a small Japanese inn. She was said to be kind and quiet, speaking only with the utmost politeness. After meeting a samurai warrior who stayed a night at the inn, Yamako agreed to spend an afternoon with him by a secluded river. While there, they spotted two boys marking on an ancient statue intended to please a kitsune spirit. Upset by this, Yamako ran across the river and shouted at them to stop. When they laughed and continued, she picked up a stick and ran at them. The boys ducked as she swung at them, and the stick hit against the head of the statue, sending it into the river. The boys fled as the fox spirit appeared with a glare, cursing her and her lineage to a lifetime of retribution. Within moments, Yamako herself was forced to take on the form of a fox, as her samurai lover sat with horrified shock.
