[QUOTE="JoeNotCharles, post: 4917437, member: 79945"] [color=DarkOrange]"Not so much DO something. They ARE something. They are called Spellscars, and, as we guessed, they are caused by exposure to foul magic. They are very rare, but I found some accounts of them in the library. Over time, they change. On most people, they slowly fade, but sometimes they will grow or twist, giving the bearer strange powers, or sometimes mutations! For example, there was an outbreak of spellscars after the Second Wizardly War in Allaria, and the storm sorcerer Donto the Vicious spent a year tracking down and killing as many of the spellscarred as he could find. When they inquisitors caught up to him, they recorded their entire questioning, and he said that while most of the peasants who had developed scars died easily, one was completely resistant to his magic, and reflected all his spells back at him - while another actually [b]bit his leg off[/b] when his head grew into a huge pair of glowing jaws! (That's how the inquisitors finally caught up with him - he was delirious with fever for a while.) Anyway, keep on eye on those scars, and let me know if you feel anything changing,"[/color] Rabbit finishes cheerfully, taking a long pull on his beer. [color=DarkOrange]"Hello!"[/color] he says happily to the approaching dragonborn. [/QUOTE]
