Curse
Physical Effects
- Partial deformity. In patches his skin immediately rots and shrivels– even hanging off from the jut of his bones by strings, puckered and white like a burn. What flesh can be seen looks dry, and upon closer inspection his gums appear spotty. Some teeth become yellow and crooked, like an old skull.
Mostly an an emotional reaction, Micah can tap into it when he chooses and can’t when he’s especially upset; then, it happens on its own.
As it is, he is afraid of doing so, and for good reason: it’s a corruptive influence. Under it he becomes cruel and violent, and only worsens over time. It eats away at his sense of self, making it difficult to come back from.
It has its perks, but they aren’t much. Micah can wandlessly accelerate plant growth, but only in small amounts; anything larger is more likely to knock him out. The Dark magic of the curse makes him sensitive to the presence of other Dark creatures, especially hags, as well as large quantities of pain and fear. Inversely, normal creatures can be scared away.
Relationships
Crippling shyness and anxiety have may keep Micah from taking the initiative, but not from being helpful or sincere. Though they are few he actually considers a friend, he is generally well liked by his classmates, if somewhat forgotten. He is good friends with Zel Trumble and Gracie Slant, and best friends with Ji-Hyun Jeun and Valerie Crowe.
