(OC fact swap thing :0) Phiniqs spent much of her young life sneaking out (dragging her twin, Phineas, and her friend who was practically her older sister, Alszeer, along) to go dig in the dirt and find "mysterious artifacts". They got in a lot of trouble doing so, but always had a lot of fun.
Digging in the dirt for myserious stuff got me thinking on my old junker, Skrepp! While he is in charge of a rather huge scrapyard nowadays, he wasn’t always how he is now! In his past he’s had some experiments thrown on him. Nothing too physically changing, but he did lose an arm in the process.
That’s also to do with the glyph-like tattoos he’s got all over his body! While he’s lost his magic (he was a guardian beforehand, though didn’t practise it much) he got a sort of spellbreaker affinity. While he’s not capable of offensive magic, he can make sure that you can’t be offensive with -your- magic!
