Jinx was a happy lizard. A lab lizard. Controlled temperature, regularly cleaned terrarium, food, water.
  
: Blanket | Wt 1 | Cost 10

He had a good life, sharing his habitat with his fellow hatchlings.
  
: Knife | Wt 1 | Cost 25
+
He wasn't a spiky, claw-y, toothy lizard. He was a stick-to-the-walls, flashy, camouflage-y lizard. With a ''really'' long tail. It's what his kind were known for.

==Bio==
 
Kai didn't remember a time when he wasn't as he was. Born to human parents, he most decidedly was ''not'' human himself, but insomuch as was possible, he was raised as though he were.  
 
  
Children his own age, when he encountered them, were quick to point out the differences.
+
He enjoyed life with his hatchmates and the scientists who challenged them with mazes and puzzles. Except when the needles started. Needles brought pain and burning.
  
The skin of his hands and face was ink-black and rough, and everywhere else he was covered in orange and tawny fur. Including his tail - a feature neither of his parents possessed - and which fascinated other children to no end.  
+
And change.
  
Sometimes painfully so, when they wanted to pull it.
+
One by one the others died until only he and Jak remained, and Jak had turned mean, developing a cruel cunning as the experiments went on.
  
Nevertheless, Kai thrived in the desert world, his lean frame adept and adaptable, his fur offering protection from both cold nights and and the abrasive lash of the sands in a storm, his big hands, with their long fingers, ideally suited to digging and sifting.
+
But it was that same cruel cunning that freed them - broke the locks and disabled the watchers. Through air vents, ductwork, and drains, Jinx and Jak fled the lab and found the sewers.
  
Because his parents were sand scavengers, most of Kai's formative years were spent outside the protection of city walls and the structure of society at large. Consequently, he never really learned to deal with other people in an easy and natural fashion.
+
Jak left him there, but Jinx survived and continued to grow and change. He left the sewers and learned to live among the people of Mirage City. He learned their words and their ways and how to pass as one of them - at a distance, anyway.
  
He doesn't make friends easily, but he values those he makes, and has learned to demonstrate his own usefulness in the pursuit of forming connections in the world.
+
He learned of others like him. Mutants. Heroes. They stood up for those that couldn't stand up for themselves.
  
It was when his mind awoke to the world around him that Kai really grew into his own. The desert came to life with a thousand thoughts, and his body and aura began to interact with the world around him. A man named Fletcher Jon saw his potential, saw what he could become, and took Kai in as his apprentice.
+
He also heard whispered rumors of darker mutants. He's even heard whispers of a villain called Jak. Jinx doesn't want to be like Jak. Jinx wants to be a hero.
  
Under Jon's guidance, Kai became an adept - a rank similar to journeyman in other trades - earning the right to dye the sides of his beard and the center of his mane crimson to show his rank and affiliation, though there were few enough who would recognize his trade on the weight of those markings alone.
+
And he thinks he's finally tracked them down.

Bio[edit]

Jinx was a happy lizard. A lab lizard. Controlled temperature, regularly cleaned terrarium, food, water.

He had a good life, sharing his habitat with his fellow hatchlings.

He wasn't a spiky, claw-y, toothy lizard. He was a stick-to-the-walls, flashy, camouflage-y lizard. With a really long tail. It's what his kind were known for.

He enjoyed life with his hatchmates and the scientists who challenged them with mazes and puzzles. Except when the needles started. Needles brought pain and burning.

And change.

One by one the others died until only he and Jak remained, and Jak had turned mean, developing a cruel cunning as the experiments went on.

But it was that same cruel cunning that freed them - broke the locks and disabled the watchers. Through air vents, ductwork, and drains, Jinx and Jak fled the lab and found the sewers.

Jak left him there, but Jinx survived and continued to grow and change. He left the sewers and learned to live among the people of Mirage City. He learned their words and their ways and how to pass as one of them - at a distance, anyway.

He learned of others like him. Mutants. Heroes. They stood up for those that couldn't stand up for themselves.

He also heard whispered rumors of darker mutants. He's even heard whispers of a villain called Jak. Jinx doesn't want to be like Jak. Jinx wants to be a hero.

And he thinks he's finally tracked them down.
