Physicality

We suffer from a number of unfortunate physical conditions, including but not limited to narcolepsy, kidney failure, asthma, hyperhidrosis, chronic migraines, heart palpitations, the list goes on. The most significant of them is rheumatoid arthritis, which we've had since the body was 8 years old. We're riddled with it from head to toe, that's no exaggeration.

Additionally, we've struggled quite earnestly to keep our housing, afford food for ourselves, and stay in temperature controlled environments. As a result, Physicality was formed. This alters sole purpose is physical treatment and survival, nothing more, nothing less. It does not speak, doesn't care to. That's not what it was made for. This alter is driven and intentional, always acting but never fronting. Its one and only job is to internally alert the other alter to possible threats to our physical safety and comfort, and other alters do what they must to take care of those threats.

The black and white spots stand for how this alter sees only in black or white, dead or alive. The gembond gene represents what it feels like to have arthritis while braving the cold and you have sudden joint locking. Your joints turn to stone, ache horribly, and lose damn near all mobility and reflexes. It's a pain we really can't describe to anyone who's never felt anything like it themselves.
