Editing Crucible:Doppleganger (section)

== Origin ==

Jamie McDougal grew up in Edinburgh, where his life was not especially remarkable—until the day everything changed.

While fleeing from a group of bullies, Jamie ducked into a blind alley with nowhere to go. Somehow, impossibly, they ran straight past him as if he simply wasn’t there. Jamie realized he had not vanished—he had blended into his surroundings so completely that he had become effectively invisible.

The discovery was bewildering.

The confirmation came soon after. When his beloved dog Scooter fell into a loch, Jamie dove in after him without hesitation. What emerged from the water was not a boy, but a dolphin—one that rescued Scooter with ease before returning to shore.

Jamie had not imagined it.

He could change.
