All growed up.... or probably not.

Since I was exsplaning this earlier, figured I'd add it here:

CC is a being summoned as a curse usually sent to other magic users. It's in her nature to absorb magic around her and her presence effects/changes any spells used around her. Effectively her kind cripples a magic user's power.
Practically impossible to kill, a strong magic user can banish one if they can distract it long enough - but they tend clings to the person 'cursed' quite formidably.

In CC's case, she was sent to Maverick and the necromancer was so taken with her, rather then banishing her he changed her spell. Now CC basically works as a familier for him, absorbing unused magic into herself and working as a back up battery for Maverick's power. She's also, for the record tiny :3
