Ah, that so. _{[Honestly, he'd have been more surprised if there were enough of these Persona users to form an institution for learning.]} If this were Thedas, they might call you an apostate. Someone who goes his own way.

_{[There's another 'a' word that might get bandied around, too: the "abomination" label, on account of having psychic passengers that aren't entirely human, but that one's less pleasant to share. Apostates don't come with the best connotations, either, but being one himself, Anders is a bit biased of the designation.]}

Oh, there's plenty. _{[His smile ticks wider, amusement still evident.]} Some of us are tall and thin, some are small and fat. Some are grouchy--that would be most of the Circle. Some are paragons of their trade.

_{[Like Anders, maybe, if you feel like filling that blank with his name.]}
