->"I am... well, I might as well say it. I am what my people refer to as a 'spellbreaker'. Spells simply vanish at my touch, enchantments fade, objects manipulated by magic return to their natural state. And given how often people rely on magic in my world, it is... problematic, to say the least. I was always told that it was a curse, something Azyrale gave me to punish my father for betraying his country and station. But I believe it may be a [[CursedWithAwesome blessing]]."

-->''Amongst the rest a small unsightly root,\\
But of divine effect, he culled me out. \\
The leaf was darkish, and had prickles on it,\\
But in another country, as he said,\\
Bore a bright golden flower, but not in this soil:\\
Unknown, and like esteemed, and the dull swain\\
Treads on it daily with his clouted shoon;\\
And yet more med'cinal is it than that Moly\\
That Hermes once to wise Ulysses gave.\\
He called it Hæmony, and gave it me,\\
And bade me keep it as of sovran use\\
'Gainst all enchantments, mildew blast, or damp, \\
Or ghastly Furies' apparition.\\
I pursed it up, but little reckoning made,\\
Till now that this extremity compelled.\\
But now I find it true; for by this means\\
I knew the foul enchanter, though disguised,\\
Entered the very lime-twigs of his spells,\\
And yet came off. If you have this about you\\
(As I will give you when we go) you may\\
Boldly assault the necromancer's hall;''
