Their implanted weapons deploy out of their hands, with their left replacing its fingers with steel cylinders capable of rapid, automatic gunfire, and their right able to blast precise magical missiles from their wrist.

Ophir was born with a rather strange ability, even among the rare few in the world whose lineage gave them minor supernatural powers. Even as a baby, his light brown irises looked oddly mechanical... and his pupils would dilate and contract with quiet clicks. Neither of his parents understood where this odd mutation came from, but they loved him and raised him the same as his brothers and sister.

Even before he was able to speak, Ophir's memory was unmatched by his peers. It wasn't until he was in elementary school that his parents realized that he might be more than what meets the eye. Photos started showing up on the family computer that could've never been taken with a normal camera... with strange and unexpected angles at times when no technology had been around.

He was bitten by the photojournalism bug after joining the A/V club at his High School and starting to better understand camera technology and technique and how it could be used to show the world to those who need to see it. Once he understood the capabilities of mundane cameras... he knew exactly what he would need to do to his own underdeveloped "body cam".
