Kyo Sohma

His name is Kyo Sohma and is a member of his household who are all other members of the zodiac including his brother Yuki, the rat who he hates. He transforms into an orange cat whenever he is hugged by the opposite gender or when his body comes under a great deal of stress. This animal is not in the Chinese zodiac, but legend says would have been if it had not been tricked by the rat into missing the induction feast. As part of his curse, Kyo transforms into a hideous monster whenever his Juzu beads bracelet are taken off. Kyo is usually short-tempered, impulsive, and rude, but that is only one side to this complex character as his other side is passionate and flustered.
