When trying to deduce something, particularly for an environment or in a friendly setting, his focus is very obvious on his face and he often says most if not all of his thought process aloud, he will get increasingly angry at interruptions, and when he is trying to hide this he tends to listen more and talk less with his eyes darting more around the room and focusing on facial expressions.

Ophir was born with a rather strange ability, even among the rare few in the world whose lineage gave them minor supernatural powers. Even as a baby, his light brown irises looked oddly mechanical... and his pupils would dilate and contract with quiet clicks. Neither of his parents understood where this odd mutation came from, but they loved him and raised him the same as his brothers and sister.

Even before he was able to speak, Ophir's memory was unmatched by his peers. It wasn't until he was in elementary school that his parents realized that he might be more than what meets the eye. Photos started showing up on the family computer that could've never been taken with a normal camera... with strange and unexpected angles at times when no technology had been around.

He was bitten by the photojournalism bug after joining the A/V club at his High School and starting to better understand camera technology and technique and how it could be used to show the world to those who need to see it. Once he understood the capabilities of mundane cameras... he knew exactly what he would need to do to his own underdeveloped "body cam".

You gain the following benefits at all times.

You are permanently and visibly transformed: camera aperture irises. You are considered to be a Sapient, Living being when targeted..

Your body provides you with the functionality of Photography Supplies. If used to attack, these "tools" use the same stats as a small knife.
