You possess a poignant yet somber gift born from the harsh realities of homelessness—a cloaking aura that renders you less noticeable to those around you. This isn’t magic; it’s the sad result of societal neglect. As you move silently through crowded streets, people’s eyes slide past you, focusing on anything but your presence. This involuntary invisibility isn’t a power you sought, but it’s one you’ve learned to navigate.
Your presence blurs at the edges, making it hard for anyone to pinpoint or recall details about you. When they try to focus, their minds fumble, hampered by unseen barriers. You exist in the periphery, a ghost in the public eye, remembered only as a fleeting shadow that fades as quickly as it appears.
Each step you take is wrapped in the silent acknowledgment of your condition—seen by many, recognized by few. Your journey through the streets is a testament to resilience and the will to exist despite being persistently overlooked by a world that finds it easier to ignore than to engage.

Cleatus has always been quick as a whip, well. Physically, but this latest gift has given him an extra pep in his step that takes him beyond that kind of thing.

Now constantly benefiting from that state of snappy relaxation, Cleatus finds it easier than ever to react and roll his way into battle. Though he doesn't know that it was in fact a drunken request to be like this forever to a harbinger he met while blasted out of his mind after the last job that resulted in this.
