Lin-Fa is a wise, compassionate dracophidian (think "like a dragon, but a snake") who belongs to the Cupid division of the Cosmos Corps. Cupid are the Corps' medics and therapists, and Lin-Fa is one of the latter. She is a calm listener and good at coming up with stories that resonate with others, and is a trusted advisor to anyone not afraid of snakes large enough to eat an adult human whole.
She technically doesn't eat meat, although she has subtle magical powers related to perceiving mental landscapes and hunting down harmful illusions, and this is how she sustains herself. https://dragon.style/media/yWemEEc-BAYxATwmNt8

i suppose it's a demand-side phenomenon, turns out theres a LOT of people who are Hungry For Lore, even when (or especially when) there is none
it's weird how often you see someone talking about e.g. the production of a video game or a movie, in a way that treats the people responsible as, i guess, of superhuman genius? like "could this blooper reel actually mean THIS?" or "surely this beta screenshot means they were thinking about this" and in every case it's like, no, that decision was arbitrary & meaningless, and everyone makes mistakes, and some things have no explanation, and they're just regular people just like you
