Rio is a Variant Human Mirrorkin Sorcerer in the D&D 5e campaign Curriculum of Chaos.
Physical Appearance
Rio is a decently tall and thin person with tanned skin and long black hair, always worn in a braid. They have rainbow eyes that constantly spiral, and spiral faster when they cast spells, use their abilities, or have heightened emotions. They also wear glasses to offset their blindness. When Rio casts spells, their entire right arm becomes pieces of shattered rainbow glass, unless the spell is casted using Subtle Spell.
Personality
Rio tries to be a very social person, with a tendency to be a bit air-headed. They're incredibly direct and don't really have an off-switch. Their attitude towards life could be described as "ALL GAS, NO BREAKS, FULL SPEED AHEAD!", which proves frustrating for most others involved.
History
Rio Martelo used to be a normal human with a constant body. Their home life was often filled with them getting into significant trouble and being punished for it in extremely cruel ways, often spearheaded by their mother. The results of these punishments include but are not limited to blindness, maiming, bruising, organ loss, and immense mental strain. When they were 18, they were slated to marry into a different house, an Aasimar by the name of Lucy de Compasso. Rio fell madly in love with Lucy, as did everyone Lucy encountered. However, Rio being their spouse and most loyal, Lucy turned Rio into a magic mirror to sit on the wall and compliment them. One day, Lucy was unhappy with their appearance and shattered the magic mirror. Rio's body 'reformed' and fired off a spell unintentionally that killed Lucy instantly. Following this, both their family and the family they married into disowned them and their body began changing on the daily. They made wooden children's toys to earn a living for about 2 years, before trying to give controlling their magic a go.

Powers and Abilities
Rio has the ability to copy other people's specialties. If a humanoid is within 60 feet of them, Rio can copy a proficiency, natural weapon, sense, speed, or mannerism that this humanoid may have. Their body replicates this by shattering pieces of themselves into rainbow glass and reconstructing the glass into the part that is needed for said attribute. Rio can also take spells that have been casted on them and learn them temporarily, being able to cast them in the same way as the caster.
Attacks and Weapons
Rio primarily relies on their magic to fight, namely the spells Ice Knife, Fire Bolt, and Mind Sliver.

THRIKOMINAKI
I am nameless
Wandering the world
No claim to anything but myself
And even that is suspect
I am nameless
But I was not always
My name carried great weight
Which was used to crush me
I am nameless
I miss my old name
But not the ones who gave it to me
I do not miss its weight
I am nameless
My name only served to cause me ruin
It took my eyes, my will, my soul
Without it, I am nothing
Perhaps absence is what I need
If having no self is selfless
Then I choose to be nameless
So that I may be selfless
My path was carved by my namers
They robbed me of my name
And yet, here, as nothing
I have never been more free
INCIDENT REPORT: THE BASILISK
They locked me in with the beast
First thing in the morning
A frozen chill ran across my face
The last thing I saw
My roof
My mother
The door
One
I knew enough about the beast
Enough to keep my eyes closed
So I didn't freeze
But I was always frozen
Stuck to the wall
There were few noises
A thud with every step
A grumble and a growl
A rattling of chains
My whimpers
My tears hitting the floor
My staggered breathing
The knock for food
The roar at the knock
The scream at the roar
The food hitting my chest
It spilling onto the floor
My desperate scrambling
More tears
Everything on repeat
Until I passed out
Two
Eyes open
Sight
Remembrance
Eyes closed
Faith in self?
Never existed
Out with the shirt
In with the blindfold
It has my faith
It carries on when I can't
Stable
Noises again
Same as before
No tears this time
No crying
No screaming
Why are my eyes closed?
If this is my life
If this is what they gave me
Then maybe
It's ok to be stone
A statue of failure
But I don't want to die
I pass out again
Three
I'm awake
I can't see
My faith was well placed
I've learned to eat in darkness
I've learned to hide in darkness
But the beast is still here
Waiting
For an opportunity
That'll never come
As much as I want it to
Until the door opens
I feel a tug on my shoulder
The blindfold falls
The darkness stays
Home
The Simple one asks:
What is a home?
A state of mind.
The warm embrace that lives in your head.
That is a home.
The Solemn one asks:
What does it feel like to be home?
Comforting.
Like the dangers of the world can't harm you.
That is what home feels like.
The Broken one asks:
Have we been in a home before now?
No.
We have been in a palace that made us scared.
That is not a home.
The Hopeless one asks:
Do we ever find a home?
Yes.
In the arms of people who truly love us.
We are finally home.
