Long ago a powerful yet curious wizard experimented on human DNA. He sought to find a way to create the perfect spy as well as create a race of human with magic flowing though them. Instead he created the first of the Displacers, a race that seemed mostly human, aside from the fact that they could separate part of their body without injury.
Few and Far Between:
Do to their experimental existence and mistakes of the inquisitive wizard the population of Displacers is rapidly decreasing. And their unpopularity has increased overtime as many have been enlisted as spies throughout the world.
Mistrusted for Their Gifts:
Because of their unique abilities Displacers are commonly mistrusted by all, including members of their own kind. Displacers try their best to keep their heritage a secret from all, for if the people knew who they were they would be executed.
