I'm also not happy with the wording. First, the text doesn't speak
about animals, and 'a different animal' may not be familiar as an
idiom to some people, in particular if they are not of English
mother tongue. Second, it's 'A character' (and then 'a(n) animal'),
but then suddenly 'All'. All what? If it's all character entities,
then why not just say so, would be a lot more readable.
