[WP] In your lifetime, stories of ordinary people being reborn or transported into fantastical worlds of magic and heroes were popular... not that you knew this, being a dog. Then you got hit by a Truck, and now you're a Dragon that just wishes belly rubs were as easy to get as they used to be.

[WP] You are a fraud, liar, cheat, and con-artist. You use acting and parlor tricks to fake being an exorcist. Your 'clients' were fine, because none of them needed a real one. Until today. Now it's not your client you have to trick into thinking you can slay or drive out demons. It's their demon.
