You may recognize Gunpowder, historian of Innovata; zir home of 15+ years. Ze is a self-serious character who came to the mountain city in the pursuit of knowledge. Instead, ze has mostly found zirself in many hijinks. At least ze still has access to zir favorite cigars.

Cyan Dye gijinkas are a rarity in Dexworld, especially natural ones. More often than not, a gijinka of their ilk will be a fusion of a Blue Dye with a green dye catalyst (more on fusion later.)

However, our Cyan Dye—famous wandering trader and infamous con artist—is natural. Meaning, they were born as a Cyan Dye. They know this very well, and flaunt their natural talents just for kicks. They are a skilled witch who does nothing but eat hot chip and lie. I hate them

While both were born desert-dwellers, that fact primarily only affects their heritage and subsequent worldviews. Both find value in hardiness and self-sufficiency, yet depend on communities and companionship in order to fulfill their livelihoods and survive as people.

Gunpowder is definitely the more socially introverted of the two, preferring to work on zir lonesome; and Cyan Dye, too, works alone, but is the type to prefer the company of others at the end of the day. And yet, it is both’s upbringings that pushed Gunpowder to pursue a career that requires learning of zir own communities, and Cyan Dye to pursue a career that requires interaction with whoever they meet. It should come to no surprise, then, that both work in positions that require a knowledge of the function of social norms and the psyche of others.

Even after 15 years of living in a mountainous area, Gunpowder is still unused to the cold. While it wasn’t uncommon for clothing to drape and cover as much as possible as to shield from the hot sun, the layers still give zem much issue. Ze just opts to wear as much as possible, even when unnecessary.

Cyan Dye just walks into places without abandon. Its hair is so fucking huge. It’s covered lol. Cyan Dye’s fine
