Synopsis

In the Middle Ages, the sorcerer Ebrok creates a spell to transform cats into humanoids. When his fellow sorcerers see them, they become envious, and Ebrok is obliged to create more Cat People for them. Later, the sorcerers become alarmed at the rapidly growing race and banish them to another dimension. However, Ebrok's two creations evade them and learn to pose as humans. When Oran discovers them, he attacks. Blocked by the sorcerers from creating more allies from cats, Flavius modifies the spell to create Cat People from humans and uses it to create the first Tigra.
