Tainted

Tainted is the demonimation of a living being that bears the power of a Stain in their skin. This Stain is represented through Brands. Tainted not only can make use of their Source to produce spectacular phenomena, but are also subject to enhanced physical prowess and improved health states.

Tainted Life
Bearing the Stain is, above all else, a responsibility. A Tainted can weave enough inhuman power to bring buildings to ashes in mere seconds, and so, these abilities must be handled carefully. It is not illogical to understand then why most standard humans fear the Tainted.

The Stain sets you aside
Most Tainted develop their Brands at the age of ten to fifteen. Those who don't, develop them at the age of 54 tops. With the change of a Manifestation, a Tainted can experiment several imposed prejudices generated by society. First and foremost, Brands will denominate a Tainted, henceforth differentiating them from standard humans with only the need of a singular glance.

This can be troublesome for most Tainted, since standard humans take them as a threat more than not, and most will take a negative if not hostile attitude against them. This, in many cases is a form of marginalization.
