Moving through the world in a carefully maintained shell. Paper thin, it constantly suffers cracks and holes. Ideas manage to seep through. Sticking on the outside and slowly transferring their damp corruption through the weakened barrier.

Communication is possible through specially constructed grazes in the surface of the shell, a translucent film still covering the gap.

In some places the shell thickens. It reacts to different stimuli and scenarios, sometimes become as think and hard as granite.

Rarely does the shell open completely.
