Changeling / Sorcerer

Submitted character story

You are the hero who survived by changing but chose permanence through fire and Old Yost's Cart. What you remembered was the circus tent, the first place your true face mattered less than your laughter. But shapeshifters who stop shifting carry the exhaustion of holding still, of choosing one skin when safety once meant many. You'll be the one who talks their way past guards, then burns everything that threatens the family you built.

Defining moment: People’s cruelty towards them for their race, them running from their home town until they were taken in by the circus where they were accepted and loved
