Once a human girl that was studying archeology, Makenzie found a vase while in on a dig site that she broke on accident while taking it to the research institute in California. But the vase had been cursed, so when she woke up the next day, she found herself transformed into a anthropomorphic fox that had a permanently blimped body. A couple months later, Makenzie had to pull out of being an archeologist, and took a job in psychology research as a balloon that patients would sit, lay on, and talk to as a "therapy balloon." Even though she's paid well, she's still a bit ashamed of her new form.
