Lomibu are a race of shapeshifters that have three main forms:

– anthro (human from head to lower back, and lion lower down)
– sphinx (human head, everything else lion)
– owl (human face, everything else is owl)

That forms are not hardwired, like werewolves' human, anthro and wolf forms. They are just most comfortable points on the gradient, where humanoid is on the one side, owl on the other, and lion near the middle.

Lomibu lives in Africa, and their faces resemble a mix of African and Arabian features.
