[WP] You are the latest generation in a rather unique family business. Your family has been finding new jobs for out-of-work gods. Your great-great-grandma was particularly proud of giving Odin the job of Santa. You knew it was going to be a long day when you saw an anxious Loki in your lobby.

[WP] During a near-death experience, you came face-to-face with the God of Death, and pleaded to be returned to the world of the living.

[WP] You are a budget mage. While most of your colleagues use costly ingredients, rituals that take weeks to prepare and use a new spell for every problem, you only know a few spells, use common household ingredients and prepare rituals within minutes. They unjustly deride your work as shoddy.

[WP] They say the food at Long Pig's Diner is to die for, but frankly, you don't trust the place. Everyone else in town seems to be addicted to it, but something about the over-all air of the place leaves a bad taste in your mouth no matter how much people try to persuade you to try it.
