When Huey focuses his heightened senses, his pupils dilate unnaturally, like a wolf’s at night. His nostrils flare as he picks up subtle scents invisible to others, and his ears seem to twitch toward even the faintest noise. To any observer, his entire demeanor shifts—his posture lowers slightly, and an intense stillness takes over, like a predator zeroing in on prey. This effect isn’t overtly supernatural unless someone is paying close attention.
Cursed and blessed in equal measure, Huey’s senses are a constant reminder of the wild beast within. Every scent, every sound tells a story that others can’t perceive—footsteps echo with intent, and fear has a distinct metallic tang on the air. His heightened awareness is a double-edged sword: the clearer the world becomes, the harder it is to ignore the primal urges buried deep in his subconscious. Each time he leans into this power, Huey walks a fine line between man and monster.
