That must be it, I'm immortal. It's a curse. Why? Because it does not come with invulnerability nor fast healing. Maybe not with healing at all, but how could I tell?

[WP] In a world dominated by the use of magic, you were born an 'unremarkable', unable to use magic but also completely immune to its effects. Today you have discovered that society has a very unique use for people like you. | The walls of the small house were illuminated by blazing fire. Red glew the stairway.
