"One of the others who had been gifted by Kendra was attacked." Hunter turns to face Jim. "Marcus called me about what happened. It was his gift that saved him from the curse."

"Marcus was gifted with the ability to change his appearance, or the appearance of others. And when Austin attacked him, he tried to use the same curse that was used on me. To make Marcus doubt himself."

"Luckily for Marcus, he was able to shift his appearance, becoming a different person, and the curse... broke. Because it was not strong enough to realize he was still the same person, despite the different appearance."
