I have gotten a random urge to make a starfolk oc with genu recurvatum/ backwards knees and uh... yeah-

Basically, got any trivia for any mutations (?)/ disorders that starfolks could be born with? Idk why but my brain is going feral over mutations and genetics again-

Isn't- isn't that like... really bad for your knees, tho-

I mean... because they don't really form the same way we do, I don't think they necessarily mutate the same way. The closest comparison is if something tampers with the nebula or energy they come from, and those are never going to end well - shell abnormalities that obstruct movement or essence flow, magic instabilities that do damage to the user or render it unusable, haywire resistances and weaknesses, essence fluxes that make them anemic or explosive, heaven forbid something tamper with their core directly.

These are incredibly uncommon in any nebulas where there are people around - they monitor them to make sure they're healthy, and nebulas are good at looking after themselves usually.

But, every now and again, some foreign magic will go too far afield and mix with the nebulas.

Now, some magic - the ambient, natural magic - is benign and has more of an adaptive effect. It just adds a sort of... resonance for the ambience of the area. That could just be a sense of "this is home", or could be actually beneficial. Sort of like eating local honey will reduce your allergies to the local flora.

I do not know where you are—if you even remain with us—but I hope that if this ever reaches you, I ma—

Suspend recording. Erase suspended work.

Seeds,

They took my face.

They took our village.

But I stole back.

Wherever you are, let us revel in the mundane—

Suspend recording. Erase suspended work.

Record new.

Seeds.

Where are you? I miss you.

Leaves.
