Hitoner

Professor of linguistics and phonology. An elegant male fenech, middle-aged. He is dressed in a tailcoat, trousers and shoes. His height is 1.3 meters. He has big ears and a fluffy fox tail. He has an exceptional musical ear and musical skills. He will try to listen to Hito's speech and try to reproduce or translate it using piano music, although nothing will work. even for a professor, human speech is beyond his hearing. However, he will still try to study human speech and try to find a way to reproduce it.

Labra is the head of State of the central Commonwealth of Kemo. The dog is male, middle-aged, overweight, has a gray mustache, is dressed in a business suit with a shirt and tie, trousers and shoes. Calm, observant, maintains a fragile neutrality about hito. He needs the result and benefit of studying the alien, as well as to be convinced of human's peaceful intentions and willingness to cooperate. He manages the entire study, but his hands are "tied" by the parliament's opinion and he cannot stand up to Director Laon.

Director Laon is the director of the entire research institution. He is a large, middle-aged male lion. He wears a jacket, shirt, pants, tie, and shoes. He treats the hito (human) as an evolutionarily underdeveloped creature. When the research reveals that the hito (human) is evolutionarily superior to the kemo and capable of many things, Laon becomes afraid of the hito, now viewing them as a monster and even a threat to the planet. After learning about human technology, the director becomes seriously concerned about the possibility of human takeover, as he realizes that the kemo's technology is significantly inferior to that of the humans, making it unlikely for the kemo to effectively resist the invaders. As a result, Director Laon contemplates the possibility of "eliminating" the alien guest by staging an accident and shares this plan with his press secretary, Tonriko. Depending on her relationship with the human, Tonriko may either agree with the director's plan or reveal it to the public, and stop him. Laon continues to antagonize the kemo against the human as a part of The Central Security Committee of Kemo.

Dr. Drill is an elderly male monkey. He is a HITO (human) research advisor. He has gray hair, wears small rectangular glasses, an open jacket, shirt, trousers, boots and carries a cane. He has short, slightly disheveled hair, a small beard, and slightly disheveled sideburns. He is usually collected, wise and calm until something truly amazing, unique and very interesting arises in front of him. He mainly studies Hito, their abilities, characteristics, history, anatomy, culture and language. He is very passionate about his work. Tonerico helps him, as she herself is very interested.

The press secretary. A young female cat. Light-colored coat, yellow eyes, and shoulder-length blond short hair. She a round glasses, wears a four-button business suit with, a knee-length business skirt and shoes. Her job is to record the course of observations and their results, and then write a report to the Director of Laon. At first, she treats human like the others - with little disgusting, disdain, as an undeveloped species, but shows a little curiosity in studying it. The more she learns about Hito (human) the more she realizes that this species, on the contrary, is evolutionarily superior to all Kemo. If a human is friendly, Tonerico becomes more attached to him, although at first she tries to hide it behind cold indifference and feigned disdain. it will be a long and not easy way, but In the end, she sides with human, defends him polytechnically, help him differently and openly admits that she is a hitoner and likes human. She becomes human's friend, close friend or maybe love. If, on the contrary, human scares, threatens and harms, then Tonerico will be more afraid of him and keep a safe distance from him. In the end, Tonerico will agree that Hito is a threat and will be in favor of his "elimination" for the sake of public safety. Tonerico lives in a small house outside the city with her mother and sister. Her height is 1.2 or 1.3 meters.

The anthropomorphic animals themselves call themselves "kemo". According to their istria, they evolved, stood on their hind legs and straightened up, freeing their hands for primitive tools. They have created a common language for communicating and exchanging food with each other, which is necessary for each other - a predator gives an apple to a herbivore, a herbivore reaps a fish to a predator. Their language is based on animal sounds, which humans cannot pronounce physiologically due to the structure of their vocal cords. Also, kemo cannot pronounce or hear correctly because of the narrow human vocal range. The people themselves on their planet are called "hito". But for them, it was just a myth or a fairy tale about a non-existent being. Currently, their world corresponds to the technological progress of the early 20th century. They have electricity, mechanical cameras, steam locomotives, big wooden radios, and a developed coal industry. They have both towns and individual villages and settlements. Kemo houses have an animalistic style, such as ears on the roof of a house or a cover of grass covering a small house. When a person speaks, Kemo cannot hear his speech properly and is confused. For them, human speech sounds like some kind of song or music, "as if a musical instrument has been shoved down a person's throat, which also vibrates." However, instead, as noted, "human can move their throats and mouths, creating a multitude of sound tones beyond the capabilities of Kemo." Kemo are very susceptible and sensitive to human pettings. The Kemo know practically nothing about Hito or Earth. Those Kemos who like hito (humans) are called hitoners and treat it as a strange and shameful fetish. Kemos can't eat some human because this food is not suitable for their body.
