• Freeks drink aura effects finally wear off and so he takes another sip of JJA’s drink. It had the following effect: His hair was now black, slightly greasy, and shoulder-length, asand his eyes were entirely pupil with gray flecks floating in them. His skin was white as bleached bone, and he was thin and tall. A torn gray shirt covered his torso, and grubby brown breeches covered his lower regions. His boots were well-worn, and he had a threadbare red cloak with a dolphin-shaped sapphire brooch attached to it. On his right hand was a ruby-and-gold ring.
