The Mark Endures “And the Lord set a mark upon Kain, lest any finding him should kill him.”

1
You possess an augmented or inhuman body.
Used by Kain, Created by Noralius.
(Your specific augmentation must be physically visible in some way, but it does not need to make you appear outwardly monstrous or socially unacceptable. )

Kain’s flesh bears the weight of divine curse ashen skin threaded with dim red veins, like cracks in old stone. His body is heavy, unnatural, untouched by time or decay. He walks like a man carved by wrath, not born.

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.

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.
