Others have already answered, but maybe I can add
a little information. The Ratuki worship the shark
deity Ratuk. Originally we called him a god, but I
agree with Santo that he is probably a great spirit.
However, the Ratuki are not shark hsunshen, contrary
to common belief. They can shapechange to sharks for
sure, but their background is different and hsunchen
wouldn't recognize them as related.
