imagine sitting in a circle with 70 or 80 little furry, pot-bellied creatures. Some of them have a sense of humor and others are more serious, like they are in charge of refueling the ark they all ride in. after sitting quietly for a while, they serve you some food made out of food particles. You politely fake a smile, but the food is from another place in time and it tastes like ass. One of the smarter creatures can see that you are faking it and challenges you to a duel. This angers some of the other little guys and they split off from the main group to start their own group of moderate, peace-loving, pot-bellied creatures. Over time they become quite powerful politically and make your group into slaves. You spend the next four or five years working in their waste disposal facility on another planet. Meanwhile there is a civil war and you are freed. You are unsure what to do with your new freedom and start a support group for other freed slaves. You become very popular amoung the members of the group and decide to run for city council. You win and move into a larger mushroom closer to the seven suns of pu. See how your luck turned around? That was awesome!
