[WP] You are a shepherd whose flock is gradually replaced by wolves in sheep’s clothing. There are some surprising benefits. Besides, they’re very unconvincing, and good comedy’s hard to come by out in the fields.	83
[WP] You are a veterinarian and a veteran. You spent your time in the military caring for beings that weren’t exactly animals, but certainly weren’t human. Records of your service are extremely classified. There’s been a leak.	78
