Ferrens look like humans, except they have the ability to change into ordinary cats. Aware of the fear that skinchangers have over society, Ferreds do their best to bled in.

By assuming the forms of ordinary cats, they can move through their adopted communities without arousing suspicion. The ferren have lived among the humans for generations, hiding in plain sight by keeping their unusual shapeshifting abilities concealed.

The appearance of the ferren offers few clues to their unusual abilities. They look like other humans, though their eyes might reflect light like a cat’s in the dark, and they all move with uncommon grace. Similarly, they can pass for ordinary animals of that sort when they assume the form of a feline. In human form, ferren stand between 5 feet and 5-1/2 feet tall and weigh between 100 and 150 pounds.
