Ophelia's pale skin has a porcelain texture. When visible, one can see ball joints wherever joints would be. Golden threads dance around the joints when under stress, and a golden hue permanently stains her icy blue eyes.
Gazing upon the golden tapestry of fate is a taxing endeavor. Even those particularly gifted can find manipulating the threads connected to events in past, present, and future particularly lethal. The fate weaver has been bestowed a synthetic body suitable for training the gifts and minimizing potential backlash if things were to go wrong. The marionette her consciousness dwells within can only be moved by directly influencing the golden threads running throughout with extreme precision. The more she dwells within this construct, the more clarity she perceives the machinations of the tapestry. Directly controlling the fate of her place in the world leads to a confidence necessary for one such as Ophelia. Her mastery in thread manipulation is increasing rapidly. Only time will tell if this is truly a gift or a curse.

Xander's dive into the Sanctuary well had an adverse effect on him in addition to his gift from the harbinger. His body began to change, beginning the first iteration of his metamorphosis into a Draugr- a rather amusing shift given his proclivity toward the dead.

which effects him like a mild mold.
But he should beware of his bane,
for silver will make him wane,

Jorge’s sin is beginning to manifest. Like the Kuliltu he consumed…the sea is changing him. He is beginning to become more fishlike. Patches of scales have broken out across his back and ribs, and gills have slitted out across his neck. His teeth have grown sharper and more angular, the bite of some underwater creature.

Guido will never grow larger than the egg he hatched from, a side effect of the massive amounts of Temporal Radiation he was subjected to in "transit."
