Good Boy

Introductory Description: You were once a regular dog, content with a life of loyalty and companionship. But fate had a different plan for you. When your master, a powerful wizard, attempted an experimental spell to grant intelligence, the spell went awry, and your roles were reversed. You now find yourself as a Dogfolk, wielding arcane magic, while your former master has been reduced to the intellect of a common dog.
