Well, given your tendency to appear and then leave, maybe you won't. You've been here...three times now? I'm fairly certain it's been three. It's been a very long time since you've been here last though, so I could be wrong.

And yes, it is. Or...well, humans or humanized creatures. Just like trolls, anyone who isn't a human is turned into one upon arrival. Jade's dog showed up at one point and was just as human as the rest of us.
