Story Starter!
It was some kind of a man, but still half way through completely evolving from an ape. Its shoulders were hunched like an old man with woeful posture. The creature's head was glistening from the on coming sunlight, due to the bare, bald skin on its head. It was wearing what seemed to be simply tattered, old and filthy rags, worn only around the neck, waist and hanging down across its chest.

"Who are you?" she asked nervously.
"Me name's Lecton Bilich."
"But..." stuttered Stephanie, "...more to the point: what are you?"
"Well, I'm a relative of human, but actually called a Horge. A magical creature, that's basically a flying human, and - unless you want to stay and get slaughtered and eaten for supper - the one who's going to save you." At this news Stephanie fainted. But nevertheless, Bilich took it as a command to take her on his back, into the sky, and into another land; one where the inhabitants wouldn't try to kill her, but use her to rise to power over the whole world...
