Character Sheets

Name: Xen
Race: Tal'he (Subset of human)
Age: 19

Special powers and limitations: Left arm has been replaced by a metallic prosthetic, the hand particularly featuring elongated, clawlike fingers which can do some severe damage with sufficient pressure or speed applied to a strike. Her arm is somewhat stronger than an average human's, due to the muscular system in it being replaced by a semi-mechanical system. She'd be capable of breaking bone with her hand but not crushing a steel pipe or sword, only putting some unsightly surface scratches on it. Another advantage to her arm is the lack of nervous system, allowing her to punch with full force and not feel any pain as a direct consequence unless the arm were damaged in such a way the nerves hooked up to it were.

Xen also has a reptilian tail created as a similar prosthetic and four horns; two above and two just behind her ears.

Backstory:
In ancient times, a warrior who lost a limb, was deformed or severely scarred in battle was put to death. Honorably, of course. You couldn't just kill somebody, you see; that would be murder. The warrior was considered impure, and the Tal'he considered themselves a clean and perfect race. Their earthy body ruined and no longer worthy of their spirit. Any warrior who refused or ran was dishonored, considered tainted fro the Honorable path by the impurity which had engraved itself their flesh.

But with modern times change such ancient rites, for rites become traditions and traditions are soon questioned. Yet unlike traditions, which are visible in plain sight in word and celebrations and actions, prejudices lurk in the hearts and minds of the people.

Indeed, so deep ingrained into the history of the Tal'he was the pursuit of the retention of perfection, that a special sense of silent disdain was still reserved for the 'scarred warrior' of the somewhat more modern day.

And Xen was one such person.

He later found out that each of the nurses that came in to see him got sick by the next time they had to go check on him. To investigate this he stood up out of his bed, then noticed his feet were surrounded by a mysterious frost like fog. Which come to find out, made the room extremely cold.
