Ghoulish Edgar pulls away his respirator to reveal a short muzzle containing a twisted amalgam of human teeth & hooked fangs.

3
Requires Seasoned
You possess an augmented or inhuman body.
Used by Edgar Stokes, Created by Strazhari.
(Your specific augmentation must be physically visible in some way, but it does not need to make you appear outwardly monstrous or socially unacceptable. )

Edgar is slowly becoming a Ghoul; his hands have thickened & become tipped with hooked talons suitable for digging up graves & tearing flesh. He has grown a short muzzle choked with a combination of his original teeth & savage fangs. His feet have begun to fuse into hoof-like stumps. Like a rat, if he can get his head through a hole, he can get his entire body through.

After consuming a mythical dragon over the period of a month, Edgar's flesh is remarkably resistant to flames.

When Kain spilled his brother’s blood for the first time, the earth itself cried out in judgment. God marked him not to end his life, but to brand him forever as the first murderer. The mark burned into his forehead was both curse and protection: a sign no man should strike him down, yet a reminder he could never escape his guilt never bond a relation never trust someone.

This mark changed Kain’s flesh pale, cracked, and veined with faint red like dried blood beneath stone an eternal reminder of that first violent act. He walks the world carrying the weight of his sin, forever marked by wrath and exile.
