About Wafer

Wafer has been a member of Andor since Autumn 2015. Alternatively called Waifu by some, particularly members of Andúril. Though very much a fighter at realm practices, she prefers to volunteer and socialize at events.

Métamorphes

The métamorphe is a shapeshifting race that uses a cocoon to naturally shapeshift and heal.

Cocoon

The defining feature of a métamorphe is their cocoon. A métamorphe's cocoon provides them with heightened sensory abilities, allows them to regenerate, and enables their shapeshifting. Only when the cocoon is bonded to its producer's body can it be useful; métamorphes cannot make any use of each others' cocoons.

The thread of a métamorphe's cocoon grows from a single pore on their skin. The location of this pore changes whenever the métamorphe shapeshifts or heals over it. Since the métamorphe gains heightened sensitivity from the cocoon, they can easily tell where the thread pore is on their body under normal circumstances. Tugging this thread from the pore further stimulates its growth. The cocoon doesn't need to be one continuous thread connected to the pore; the thread can bond to itself and also to bodies, so it can be severed as necessary.

Health

A métamorphe's bodily ability to heal and fight off illness on its own is dependent on the amount of time it was last developed in the cocoon. The longer it was developed, the longer the body can maintain those functions. However, areas of the body bonded to the cocoon can regenerate quite quickly and are nearly invulnerable to infection. If mobility is not a concern, métamorphes can fully enclose themselves in thick cocoons to overcome critical health issues.

Métamorphes can also bond their cocoons to other physical beings in order to heal them. The healer doesn't need to be familiar with the body of the being they're healing, but they do need to focus. During certain battles, the recitation of poems and chants has been successful in generating this focus.

Shapeshifting

In order to naturally change form, métamorphes must be affected by a cocoon. They must be entirely encased in the cocoon. To assume a particular form, a métamorph must place the form into their subconscious; if this fails or no form is chosen, they will assume their passive form. Métamorphes typically have trouble assuming forms that are much different from their passive forms.

They aren't immune to unnatural changes of form initiated by others, as from curses. Such changes can even remove the cocoon thread pores from their bodies. The use of a métamorphe cocoon can reverse the effects of unnatural changes of form, however.

With intense focus, métamorphes can cause other physical beings to shapeshift for a time. The other being must be completely encased in a cocoon in order for this to be done. In this circumstance, unlike when métamorphes shapeshift themselves, the shapeshift does not deteriorate until it comes to an abrupt end. Métamorphes are largely responsible for replacing children of one race with children who they shapeshift into that race. These children are referred to in métamorphe culture as changelings.
