• Mechanics:
  • Remet Asha can control a special substance called Living Metal, a solid Metal that becomes liquid by their thought and imagination, and can be reshaped to whatever they can imagine, and telekinetically moved around.
  • Remet Asha has perfect night vision, capable of seeing in dark and low-light environments without needing external lights. Additionally, their claws when struck together create flint and steel like sparks that light up.
  • Remet Asha has a natural bodily reaction to non-combat Magic in their proximity. This can for example cause the fur in their neck to stand upright. It can also be used to warn of a magical presence before it is spotted.
  • Remet Asha has a heightened sense of smell, sight, and hearing outside of Combat. This is fairly flexible and should be discussed with people in a scene to determine what advantages it may give an Asha in varying scenarios.
  • Remet Asha either through a combination of excellent acrobatics, or shock-dampening limbs, or using their claws to slide down buildings, never take damage when falling from heights, so long as this fall is below 50 Blocks.
• Languages: Common, Altalar, Ibeth

Concept

Despite his rather shy and awkward nature, Gao's love for nature and life drives him to continue on his path and share what he's learned with the rest of the world.
