Trivia
- Clara's creator(s) are currently unknown. It's rumored she wandered into town from the West.
About twenty five years before the events of the story, she wandered into town. She was extremely confused, very off balance and moved as if it was hard to walk. The general store manager took her in. She retaught Clara language and various skills, such as cleaning and running the general store. It's still hard for Clara to do fine motor skills, but her language skills and movement has improved a lot. It still isn't quite to a level of fine control and manifests as symptoms similar to dyspraxia.
Despite adjusting well to life, she has no memory of where she came from or what happened to her. Her construction is also an extreme mystery, and she's definitely caught the attention of the people who live in Chiron, but as she seems harmless most don't really address it out of politeness. However, being a magical construct by design makes it hard dealing with strict no-magic people.
Her outer skin is made of earthenware ceramic, and she is styled in the form of a porcelain doll. However, when her pieces are broken off, they merge back together if they're slotted back in and she is capable of reforming herself if enough of her is grouped in the same place. The earthenware skin covers a hollow space, but the "skin" retains its shape even if pulled apart. The pieces go back to their original spot and would move with the body as if the part was physically there, but she is unable to use the part of her body to manipulate objects or touch things. For example, if her arm snapped off, you could place her hand near her and it would float and snap to the end of what she would feel as her "arm", like a phantom appendage. But she would be unable to control her fingers.
