Therianthropy is a common trait amongst deific figures in various cultures, notably the Gods of ancient Egypt and the Native American tribes of North America. Therianthropy is also an extremely common trait amongst the race of people and creatures whose origins are rooted in a mysterious realm known as the Homelands. These people are commonly referred to as Fables. One of the more well-known Therianthropes is the super-villain Jivan Shi who has the ability to transform into a were-hyena.
