Quirks & special traits
- Has a semi-sentient drone “companion” that follows him around everywhere, serving as a mobile camera to record his discoveries/achievements and failures. The drone has been around ever since Narius worked alone.
- Uses a stress ball to calm down when he experiences anxiety attacks (very squeaky).
- He stays in his quarters most of the day. Only shows up for meals or when it’s asked of him.
- Half of his face was destroyed by an acidic “creature accident” when he was a kid. He became blind on one side and later body-modded himself with a cybernetic eye and bionic facial tissue (aesthetic choice).
- His cybernetic eye can also serve as a flashlight. It takes energy from a small internal accumulator implant.
- Most of the time, he is seen wearing his modifiable environment suit. Nobody knows if he actually wears normal clothes or not.
