=Background=
Isha was a student from a wealthy family who studied at the Asaranti University in Charmonde.  He was accomplished in his studies, but underwent a strange experience with a piece of numenera, where he accidentally activated a spider-like automaton, which leapt at him and injected itself at the base of his neck, quickly becoming impossible to remove.  Since then, Isha has been able to "talk" to machines, or at least hear them and exert a strange power over their function.  At times, he feels like the implant is growing deeper into him, infiltrating him further, and he wonders if his thoughts are his own.

Having graduated, Isha travels and investigates strange ruins in sightings, in part out of fascination and desire to learn, in part to see if he can find out more about what happened to him.
