A long time ago your ancestor Haru had a mystical connection with tigers in fact he loved them so much that he asked the gods to turn him into one. He was determined to protect himself and his family from invaders, one night on a full moon the gods granted his wish, he was giving the ability to turn into a powerful anthropomorphic tiger beast. He passed this gift to his children when they came of age and they passed it to theirs. For generations your family temple was protected by the tiger guardian who can take on a human appearance.

The tiger has since blessed your family for countless generations.
