As prestigious and highly valued as an Earth education is, chimeras, cobranagas, manticores and such find that humans are generally less than accepting of their differences. So St. Rakshasa's Academy offers a program to outfit each student with a human guise, one which--whether through sorcery or science or a combination thereof--protects them from any untoward incidents. Some wealthier families opt for upgrades, but it's a dangerous game: if the students get too comfortable with their human guises, they may not want to change back!

Merry the chimera and Corrie the manticore are the models for this St. Rakshasa's advertisement posted to some of the finer periodicals and walls of the multiverse. Both were drawn beautifully by  Fringedog in one of his usual streams; Please visit his page to favorite Merry's true form, Merry's human guise, Corrie's true form, and Corrie's human guise. The decorative frou-frous are from here and the paper texture is from here
