Bewitched Creature

Once upon a time, you were a great beast. Perhaps you were a dragon, ruling over your territory with a fiery fist, or a unicorn protecting its forest. But that was long ago. From some curse, or a run-in with a rival creature, or a spell gone wrong, you have found yourself trapped in a humanoid body. What will you do with this new form?
