[WP] Alright. So that fishing town you just moved into obviously has some fishy lovecraftian shit going on. So what? The rent is cheap, the house is nice, and the job pays well. Not to mention, the local eldritch cult's bake sales are to die for.

[WP] It sounded like a good deal. A second chance at life in a magic world, a powerful new body, and you'll get to be a paladin. Just sign the papers. Immediately, your soul is taken and stuffed in a homunculus body. When you come to, you're a slave knight to a corrupt church.

[WP] Being a carnivorous sentient species is hard on this side of the galaxy. Most of your neighbors are paranoid prey species who are afraid of you even if you mean no harm. The only friendly faces here are this one species of primates, but they do get a bit... too friendly at times.
