It Takes a Beast: A Story of a Lion in Scarlet

When a lion-woman's humble human friend goes missing, she sets out to go rescue him from the depths of a local landmark, the so-called Founder's Cave. There she meets with a fellow adventurer also questing in the cavern, a mysterious magician with more to her motives. As the monstrous villain responsible for the disappearance? Such a creature may just prove to our heroine that sometimes, it takes a beast to slay a beast.

Meet Raziya Aviv. She's a stranger in a strange land living in the warm plains and hills of the Beast Wilds, new to the life of a full-grown adult. Sadly for her, she doesn't quite fit into the bucolic life of her new home, the port town Dawn's Light. For one thing, she's not accustomed to the lifestyles of her salt-of-the-earth neighbors. For another, she's not human. Raziya is a member of a leonine race, a lion-like woman with acute senses, amazing physical prowess and strong emotions alike. What's more, Raziya is an apprentice warrior-ascetic, harnessing the mystical powers of fire from her faith and her ambition. This set of skills and spells alike make her a match for the dangers of the land: cruel monsters and minions of evil. There's always something new, exciting and dangerous going on in the Beast Wilds. Who better to confront such dangers in the fantastical land than a freelance adventurer like Raziya?
