Description
The BakeNeko are the descendants of cats turned by magic into a sentient, but servantile, race by the Mages, who once ruled over most of the known world.
To many, the BakeNeko are the most obvious reason why Magic use must be curtailed and heavily restricted, and why the overthrow of the ruling Mages long ago was so necessary.
Seen by many as unwanted reminders ofΒ the insane power of the mages, or as actual abominations, the BakeNeko have a hard time fitting into society. They themselves often suffer from depression and a sense of loss considering their origin.
As to why the mages created the BakeNeko, no one can say for sure. It is believed by many they were created to serve as simple servants, to fetch things for their masters, cook their food and manage their households. Others believe they are an example of the pride of Mages, creating these new sapient creatures and forcing them to live as servants showed off the power the spellcasters possessed.
Others believe they did it just because they could.
As you can imagine, knowing their creators were jerks is quite distressing for many BakeNeko.

I imagine they're one of the few species in any fictional realm, who don't believe they were made by god(s)...made for god(s), though?

I imagine this was how many a persons first meeting with them went.
"Oh my god, she's so cuuute, and she's got a little sword too."
"Yes, no, wait no. I'm a fierce warrior."
-Proceeds to pick her up and hug her.
"She's so fluffy and cuddly. I could hold her for hours."
"Damn you all."Β
-About to be let down-

Tiny and cute, and they can make your breakfast for you, is it no wonder the mages made them?

Awww life is hard without thumbs! Do they still retain any of their cat instincts? The design is absolutely adorable!

Well they can't really make a mage breakfast without thumbs, so they gave them thumbs!
Also they do indeed keep their catty instincts, provided they wouldn't impede in their service to a mage.
And thanks dude!
