On toxicity:
Hezalea always used to carry around vials of liquid cancer: chromyl chloride. Koriol was the one who supplied her with it, no questions asked. It looks like blood, just a little more orange in smaller portions, and it fumes enough that people know right away that she means very much harm. The moment they lay eyes on it they usually back away. What does it mean, now that something quite similar flows through her veins? At least she's not planning to maintain any relationship that matters anytime soon.

On the white streak:
No matter what she's tried, she can't get rid of it in any meaningful way. Cutting it off only means it'd grow back with the same pale whiteness, and it's not even porous enough to be dyed before the colour slips away, staining everything else. Maybe it's from the incessant stress of all the situations she throws herself into, but she secretly knows this is just another superficial symptom of something quite sinister underneath.

On choice:
She didn't choose this gift. She was told she'd be getting magic from fulfilling Contracts, but all she got instead was a true manifestation of what was already there. The scientists back then were so intent on achieving this very feat, telling her it'd make her better and stronger and all-powerful. They had an unnatural fixation on replacing one's crimson vitality with something else. All they really wanted was self-satisfaction and bragging rights for attaining divine knowledge, at the cost of her liberty and her life.
