ID: SD254
Name: Othello
Suit: Hearts
Rank: Jack
Gender: Male
Animal: Feline/Canine (Coyote)
Region: Torquehelm/Raemblen Bog
Parents: Rhiannon x Xiven
Dealer: Kari Muffin
Notes: He has an awfully odd mutation of buckteeth. They impede his speech, causing him to lisp and whistle slightly. His binding was going to be a nice manacle... but the Torquehelmian smith got a bit carried away and accidentally stapled the chain through the boy's arm and paw. One half of the chain fastens into the paw pad, the other into the flesh of his elbow. This does not cause him extreme pain, though the legs muscle will eventually dwindle to practically nothing from lack of use.
This child has an odd green fog exuding from his eyes. It cannot be fanned away and smells slightly of mint. This fog causes him to see into the future with his left eye and into the past with his right. He can only see it in the immediate area, however, and it will cause his senses extreme strain. He may even develop fears of things as he might see people from the past around him who are no longer there, or from the future who will be there... all over. This includes: in his room at night, in the city, in the bathtub... He cannot touch these people or communicate with them... but if he’s all alone, sometimes he can catch snippets of conversation.
Notes: Othello now wears Xander's bindings. A thin set of manacles.
Basic Magical Ability: He can ignore moderate amounts of pain for up to an hour.
Moderate Magical Ability: When activated, he gains an immediate proficiency with any weapon that he picks up. This can be activated and deactivated at will.
Strong Magical Ability: When activated, he can inflict mental pain on another card of any suit, once per day. The degree of pain is akin to that of having your eyes dry out completely. Five minutes into this torture, the victim will lose the ability to see and will not regain it for a full hour.
Powerful Magical Ability: When activated, he can control the mind of a lesser Heart for up to ten minutes, once per week. The individual being controlled would know and the degree of control would be almost perfect, with the exception of the fact that while the victim is under his control, they will also sport buck teeth like his that will disappear once the control is lost. This also impedes their speech.
Jack’s Ability: He is immune to any and all poisons, with the exception of silver in all of its forms. It will cause him an extreme rash, making his fur full off. If the silver is not removed, this will shortly be followed by chunks of his skin. If ingested, the substance will burn its way back out of his body.
Moderate Ability: Once a week, this SD is now able to cause small bridges to form out of any cluttered objects lying around. They will only carry him and one other person he is carrying, and will hold him regardless of how flimsy it may appear. It will drop anyone he isn't bringing purposefully regardless of how sturdy it may seem. These bridges cannot extend further than 100 feet, and if he wants them to go further than they can, they will simply end in mid-air. The bridges will last an hour before simply collapsing on their own, though they can be torn down by Cards ranked 8 or higher, or 100 point spells.
Fancy Effect: This Card has now begun to emit a scent that is odorless, but chock-full of pheromones! They always smell good now, and, once a week, they are now able to cause Cards ranked 5 and under to find them painfully attractive by exuding a scent specifically tailored to them.
Othello's Vision Ability: Once a day, for two hours consecutively, he is able now to see into the present. This is a result of his future/past blindness being tampered with by the magical shakedown and discharge caused by Cale's portal going off all day, the vanishing spells attempts to work on him, and other magical caustics converging on him.
Torque Curse: Having this child's binding chopped off has caused the back of his mind to seize on the idea of the fabled Torquehelm curse and hold on tight! Not being full Torque is probably all that saved him from dying of shock on the spot. As it is, he now covets others' bindings jealously. He may even try to steal some if he becomes too unstable, or to re-bind himself, which has a 50% chance of "curing" his curse.
