The nekomata that was supposed to take the form of a child princess after her murder, but befriended her instead becoming her pet and protector, eventually the young princess died of sickness and she her image, replacing the child as it was intended but more over to avoid her parents suffering which she grown attached to, thus grew up pretending to be their child, the parents got suspicious as to why their child had grown tails and ears, but the excuse was that the cat (which had gone missing) had sacrificed its life in order for her to get better and thus she had to have the tail and ears in her honor. When people got suspicious of the princess not aging and long life she faked her own death. After that she sent off to live another life like a cat, ignoring her nekomata duties. She is often seen in her house cat form on multiple houses eating and sleeping. She takes on her human form to interact with other humans in a peaceful way but her mischievous side comes out to play sometimes and likes to spook people.
Bakeneko/Nekomata info:
Bakeneko, or moster-cat, is a fabled cat with supernatural powers, such as raising the dead, entering one's dreams, warping it's surrounding, and similar abilities. It is rumored to play with and haunt, and even devour humans for fun. Some stories even have the bakeneko raise its own victims in order to trap others or to use as a distraction to escape. And its even been said that when a Bakeneko has lived for a 1000 years, it becomes a Nekomata, a two-tailed version of the Bakeneko that is said to somehow even be more dangerous. However, this couldn't be further from the truth. The truth is, the Bakeneko/Nekomata is a group of druids and similar minded clerics who have used their powers to infiltrate the house of those against the natural order of the world. Those who would perform things like extend their lifespan far beyond what it should be, destroy nature to gain power, and those purposefully go out of their way to destroy nature or go against her rules. These are their true targets, and rather than confront them directly, and risk revealing themselves, they have adopted their disguise, a normal housecat who after time, gains supernatural powers.
In Japan they refer to them as good spirits, wishing to help the humans that have cared for them in the past. Stories exist of cats taking the form of women and girls in order to become wives for lonely male owners, or daughters to childless couples. How a normal cat is supposed to become a bakeneko varies a bit from story to story. For most, it requires that the cat has had a long life and that it has lived and been fed in the same place for that time, becoming particularly large - but the theories of how long and how large differ greatly. They also have the ability to eat anything in their way, regardless of size or edibility, this includes humans. Their main food is poison, particularly a certain snake unknown to humankind. They also sometimes said to have the power to enter someone’s dreams.
