Backstory:
She’s a dragon from a horrible dragon world, but even dragons live in a society and have to get normal jobs. She’s an evolutionary biologist who studies taxonomy. Her life goal was to make a discovery so profound it would make her name go down in history forever, so nobody would ever forget she existed. She failed.

PGAU: Due to a demon-summoning accident gone wrong, she was stranded in the world of [community profile] sheep_game, a teamnesia DWRP set in an idyllic pasture/farmland. This was a place where the resident cute little Animal Crossing-style people were plagued by nightmare demons that made people play trauma games against each other. There, she was exposed to humans for the first time (horrible, terrible) and learned of the human disease called friendship. She also became passionate frienemies of some sort with Kuja, world-ending endboss and flamboyant mad science wizard from hit video game Final Fantasy IX. He saw she was terrible and made it his personal mission to make her worse.

Sadly, her species has a natural lifespan of about 20-25 years. When she inevitably died of old age, Kuja found this unacceptable and instead of letting her die peacefully, slapped her soul into a spooky crystal and grew a new body around it with necromancy. She’s now some kind of ageless flesh golem with anxiety.

After the events of Sheep Game, she gained the power to worldhop freely and followed Kuja back home for a while to shake him down for more magic lessons. After that she left to travel the world, and then another, and then a third. She is now living the life of a wandering scholar, studying magic, science, and possibly friendship.

Setting:
North Korea but with dragons, followed by cute pastoral pocket dimension, followed by worldhopping across various Final Fantasy worlds. She’s a Final Fantasy character now. But like, a random encounter monster.

Powers: here. Despite her range of abilities, she’s not super proficient at anything and has an extremely small MP pool. My character is not allowed to be good at fighting. She can do many magic tricks poorly.
Arrival Choice: Accept - surrendered a horn from the head of her dragon form.
Soul Weirdness?: Her soul is inside a spooky crystal buried deep in her chest. If it breaks, she will die. As you see, she had a soul capsule before they were cool.
How Do You Wanna Do This?: Russian nesting soul capsules. Soul capsule with a crunchy crystal coating.
