Like both are the kemonomimi species but one is a dog kemono and the other is a cat kemono, and they both have different characteristics and by their appearance they don't look related at all, but are both from the same embryo and then technically are then twins, but because of the whole genetic experiment they are related but not really, so I just call them "distant cousins" or just "cousins" to simplify things After they were deemed "safe" and released into the world they kinda went their separate ways to experience the world for themselves and they have the relationship of siblings, the constantly at war but also care for each other kinda thing?? Zayden is the "leader" of his group Zayden's magic has to do with sight and perspective, he can basically mess with your mind, as in make you see stuff or hallucinations, basically. That's all I can think of rn haha feel free to ask questions ^^ --- Pictures: Thumbnail Zayden [use this as reference] will add --- ---
