Well, would you like to play an evil overlord, who turns disloyal minions into furniture?
Would you like to play a merchant of death, who forges his victims into coins?
Would you like to play a well-meaning patriarch, who just tries to keep his family alive during the black death with potions and ointments?
Would you like to play a werewolf weaponsmith, who turns his dead relatives into slick blades for the next generation of heroes?
Would you like to play Santa Claus? Just the messy defunct kind who builds wonders out of ice that nobody else wants to receive?
