Quote from Baalzeboop >>

 Felix senses the demonic presence, stands up, and walks over. "Did you know that all creatures have a similar life energy flowing through them? Undead, constructs, elementals, humanoids, demons, beasts, plants, aberrations... everything. It really makes you think about how we're all basically the same deep down."

“I feel vaguely threatened by that statement for some reason.” He responds.

 "You should be. Everything has a soul, or at least part of one. Most things don't have enough of one to be useful or even valuable. But when they band together, which is almost exclusively out of anger due to an impure death and a lack of respect to their remains, they can create horrible things. A lot of people call them demons, but they're closer to ghosts. Usually, even is many, many minor souls, don't have enough power to be visible or possess objects, but what they can do is guide foes to you and give you bad luck. It's kind of like karma, in a way."

“They sound like losers.” Riotan smirks and sits down at the table Felix was just at. “Proper demons are embodiments of the essence of hedonism and sin, and take almost fully corporeal forms. Less corporeal than mortals, but far more than spirits.”

 "Who are you? What do you want?!" He looks up, black fluid gushing from the holes in his face. "D-don't hurt me..."

 "My subjects call me the fixer, but that is not my true name." The strange light forms into a shape that is elegant and humanoid yet mysterious and birdlike. "I am Antando the Alterer, and I want nothing more than to help. Pardon my harpies, I told them to advertise but I'm not quite sure they grasp the concept yet. Either way, under my protection, you would never come to harm. "
*what is your chars greatest insecurity? if he could change anything about himself, be anything he wanted, what would it be?*

 "You... want to help people?" He asks, still on fire.

No point in rolling damage cause he's got a crazy amount of HP.

*He's insecure about pretty much everything. His greatest insecurity is that his nature, being basically an adolescent body-snatcher fungus, will cause people to be hurt. He's constantly haunted by monsters, and not just shadows and banshees. A lot of them are just him, but better. Younger, healthier Sporespawn that come in packs to kill him before he reaches adulthood.*

 *hmm*
"Of course! It is my Modus Operandi to alter, repair, modify, and improve." The figure waves his hand and the fire puts itself out. "However, my power is limited in this form. If you want my help, you have to come with me" he holds out his hand

 Felix sits down across from him and continues infodumping.

"But the thing is, they can reach higher ranks. The Dyscharist was once several entire cultures wiped out by famine. He's only a category 4 out of 6. A 6 is a continent-crushing monster that could scare a tarrasque back into the ground with a glance. Regardless, that's not what I was getting at. These Category 0s are harmless, but still should be... well, they're like balloons. You need to let all the life energy out of them. That way they can move on and have their energy re-enter the universe. I'm what's called a Nightmare Gourmand. I mix a wide variety of mundane and magical skills together in order to prevent the creation of these sorts of things, and exterminate them when they do occur from improper monster hunting. So I can drain the very life out of major threats, with or without harming their bodies. I don't like doing that very much, though since the life energy adds an incredible amount of flavor and magical power to the meal."

 False steps back. "How do I know you're telling the truth? How can I trust you?"

“I see. How intriguing. Where do they come from? What causes them to form?” Riotan asks, feigning interest and thinking of amusing ways to torture Felix.
