Laguz
From Fire Emblem Wiki
The Laguz are a race of people from the Tellius Series who can shift from human-looking forms into animal forms. When in human form, they still have certain animal-like physical traits, such as tails, wings, or colored stripes on them. They are known in legend as the "sons of strength", as they possess a greater deal of physical might compared to the Beorc. There are many different species, or tribes, of Laguz, including Cat, Heron, and Dragon. The population of Tellius is formed of both Laguz and Beorc.
Laguz consider it dishonorable to fight with their natural weapons while not in animal form. They are proud races, and the conflict between them and beorc runs deep. However, while some hate the beorc (such as Lethe and Tibarn), others are friendly and unprejudiced towards their counterparts (like Kurthnaga, Ranulf, and Mordecai).
