CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
APPEARANCE: Baq is a shinjin, and looks the part very well (not like a goblin). She has green skin, dark hair, red eyes, sharp claws, 4ft in height, and a voice like the volatile yips of a chihuahua (not like a goblin). She dresses as is typical for her people, but keeps without the accoutrements expected of someone assigned the role of life creation. On the other hand, she wears (cheap) imitation potaras, relics reserved for the Supreme Kais. Which she is not.

BACKGROUND:
Baq's life is one spent sometimes enhancing, most times twisting, the minds and bodies of mortals — not necessarily without their permission. This is because, as a godlet squeezed from a rotten grape, she slipped from the hands of her 'pruner' and fell into the Mortal Realm, more specifically Arlia. The Arlians took her in as a living idol and, plenty happy with their sacrifices and worship, Baq developed a very Shinjin-like sense of superiority over their kind. However, her appreciation for the bugmen was genuine, centuries have passed and she still bestows traces of their biology.

Alas, a vacationing Shinjin found Baq on Arlia and returned the toddler to Heaven. She had been mistaken for someone born from a good fruit, consequently her punishment for 'running' was particularly cruel. Three hundred years of constant studying the matters of life-making and life-nurturing, useless disciplines for someone who only cared about changing life (mocked as 'corruption' by her less enlightened brethren) and allowing it to adapt by itself. Baq cultivated a healthy hatred for everyone in the divine bureaucracy, but in particular those cursed Supreme Kais that had ordained such a hellish system to function.
Done with studying, Baq put on her (fake) potara earrings, slipped into the Mortal Realm, and has been trying her best to undermine Supreme Kai authority through meddling with 'natural' 'evolution'. Her latest stop is Arcose, where a rather beastly rodent is but a Gene-scramble away from becoming bioluminescent. Such a path is not the foreseen by the Kais, and so it must be taken.
