[WP] Humans are the bane of faeries. The reason? Our blood is filled with iron and salt, with a whole host of other taboos that are ingrained into our culture. As a diplomat of the faeries, your goal is to somehow integrate with these poisonous creatures.

[WP]Everyone has some type of power from best cooking skills to more fantastic powers. Your powers include excellent life coping skills and common sense, you think nothing of it but you'd be surprised what people offer for your "simple" advice. Problems need solutions and you need to make a living.

[WP] Ghosts are real. Too many things have died for them not to be and they are a part of everyday life. Agencies employ ghosts from all eras, soldiers work with haunted equipment and people can even sign up for pet hauntings. Not all ghosts can fit civilian life though and that's where you come in.

[WP] You have the power to control the intensity of happiness and pleasure a being can feel for a certain length of time. Villains constantly hound you, not because of a rivalry but because they have become addicted to the sensation you. The pharmaceutical field hires hitman doctors to stop you.

[WP] You sigh as you trudge through yet another ancient dwelling. It's annoying to deal with the arcane traps nevermind dealing with whatever bored Djinn resides at the heart of the dungeons. It's tough being the magic lamp inspector. But boss would be pissed if some upstart ignored his 3 rules.

[WP]On opposite day grim reaper has to help guide the souls to birth (or rebirth depending on the soul). The angels get put in charge of the damned and vice versa. And they are woefully unprepared for the ordeal. Most gain a new found appreciation of the other's job but some find that they like it.

[WP] Turns out the Human dimension is considered by most to be the demon's dimension and most alien "abductions" are actually their version of a demonic summoning.
