Mutual Exchange
Shaved Punk Bassist, former heiress to the Qa'yi
Race: Earth Pony
Gender: She/Her (Insists that anyone but her Clanmates use They)
Mutation: Bone-y Talons that Carve Oaths
Overview
A pony who is completely shaved, head to hoof, even their tail has been shaved. They wear thick leather clothing to cover up most of their body. They are friends with Calea and Boiling Point and together form a band named VVURM2TH and are of course also part of ‘Imminent Critique’. They seem to have an unrequited crush on Calea, which the Bat Mare seems to actually know about. They seem to be very hot headed and brash, unable to control their emotions.
You are now Soul Bound to Mutual Exchange along with the other members of VVURM2TH in a Clan. Since becoming part of the Clan, you’ve started to call Mutual by feminine pronouns as she requested. This is something she only lets others who are part of her ‘Clan’ do for some unknown reason.
You’ve learned that Mutual Exchange used to be part of The Oy’uz, specifically she was the Heiress to one of the main Clans known as the Qa’yi. However she was accused of being sympathetic to Migrationism (a small movement among the Oy’uz that wishes for them to become a Nomadic people again) and forced out as an Exile. This nearly caused a civil war in The Abattoir and she attracted many followers who hailed her as a child of prophecy. However, something happened (The Kuvava and Lovesick were involved in this) and she was abandoned once more.
Mutation
Her mutation is that one of her hooves can turn into a bone-y claw, with each talon dripping ink. She is able to use this claw to inscribe Tattoos onto beings with souls and create ‘Oaths’ to Ishara. These Oaths are unbreakable and mimic a similar technique that is a secret of the Oy’uz even she was not taught. Her Oaths can do more that just compel others though, they seem to be able to create empathetic links between beings (Such as transferring pain between rats and a surgery patient, or creating an empathetic link between those who join a ‘Clan’) or go even more Metaphysical and create Prophecies. She’s inscribed one such Prophecy onto Calea.
Notes
- She owes you Guitar Lessons
- She seems a lot nicer now that you’re part of the ‘Clan’ and seems to always show you care and compassion.
- Her adoptive family are The Ironclads. They seem to love her unconditionally, but Mutual does not seem willing (or able?) to reciprocate.
