---

Qyzi went to a town's library in hopes of finding some information that could possibly help her gain some form of control over her magical gift, or in her eyes curse. Upon wandering into the library she got a few weird looks from those inside, not very often people see a kobold by their lonesome, let alone one coming into a library but fortunately no one within really cared enough to evict her, so long as she didn't wreck the place it would be fine. Qyzi searched shelf after bookshelf in hopes of finding anything about her predicament. After what seemed like a hopeless search, she finally found some parchments in an old book, it said some cryptic ways of gaining control over her magic, she was ecstatic, finally something that may help her control this so-called "gift". Qyzi read the text over and over, making sure she wouldn't screw something up.

Step 1: make an incision on the body, it listed how to control the flow of blood within and shape it, breathing techniques and other methods for control, seemed easy enough. She made the incision on her arm and started. It seemed to go fine, but then something went wrong, the papers around her starting flying about, her kineticist abilities were interfering with her blood magic, they fought raging to gain control at the surface.

"NO! Not Now! Not here! come on, come on! Have to calm, deep breaths you can do this."

Qyzi took quick breaths, trying her best to calm down, it wasn't working, she started to panic as things got worse, she could feel her kinetic power raging and conflicting with the blood magic, it was too much to contain. The kinetic energy exploded sending spikes of blood all around the area, the bookshelves closest to her were splintered into bits the books torn apart, she was breathing heavily it was over. Qyzi stood up holding her wound while looking at the destruction she caused, she heard the footsteps of guards coming, she had to leave fast.

As she ran out the back taking what notes survived the explosion of energy, the act she had no control over, ate at her, one day hopefully she would be able to control this accursed power of hers.
