Schen, a world populated primarily by humans. There does exist magic, however mere human's ability to manipulate it is limited compared to some of the magical beasts and higher powers which call this world home. Humans have more than learned to adapt though, creating technological marvels which presently make them one of the most powerful species on the planet. The largest power of humanity is the Domain of Alaca Lorthan, the place from which Cody hails. It is a large nation which houses many of humanity's best and brightest. Technologically it's one of the most advanced states on Schen, with electronic computers comparable to the early 21st century on earth, augmented with magical effects for outstanding effects.

Since arriving on infinitas, Cody's worked for a small shop that sells magic goods, including cheap, yet effective magic blocker charms.

Cody's parents were refugees fleeing a series of natural disasters striking a nation to the south of the Domain. After getting settled in the Domain, Cody's parents managed to make a pretty decent living and had Cody after being there for several years.

When Cody was young, he showed a slight aptitude for magic, in the 85th percentile compared to his peers. He basically got to do some extra homework in grade school to work harder on magic. In grade school, Cody had a small circle of friends. Usually they'd play video games together or just hng out.
When Cody turned 14, he was sent to Dracheman Prep School. This was where his life started to turn upside down. At DPS, they didn't use traditional punishment systems; they would use magic on the students instead. And unfortunately for Cody, he faced some issues from a number of teachers who held prejudices against people from the south.

Cody's magic permeability wasn't really known until it was far too late, the condition itself was exceedingly rare. The punishment curses didn't have any unusual effects at first, then they started lasting a bit longer than they should have. Then they started showing up when additional curses were put on him. Eventually bits of them stopped going away entirely. With each additional curse, Cody's magic permeability worsened, like a tear that gets bigger every time you tug at it. By now, in his senior year, Cody has lost all ability to return to his human form. His human form has simply been washed away by too many of these curses. Worse yet, some lingering effects have taken hold and still pop up periodically, especially if triggered. Cody's tendency to turn to a girl is one such example of this.

Regardless, Cody seems to have found some coping mechanisms. He enjoys shopping, cooking, and VR games.

A small crystal magitek device that lets Cody teleport to one of 3 set destinations about once every hour. The range is 50 miles. Useful for commuting. It takes about 60 seconds to charge.

A magical bag. Not like a traditional bag of holding. Instead of just having one bigger-on-the-inside volume, it instead has up to 15 separate "interiors," each one is normal sized for the bag, but the user can switch between them easily. It contains school supplies and some extra clothes.

magitek goggles that allow for a fully immersive virtual reality experience while the user remains lying down somewhere. 4 pairs, plus console. Powered by electricity. Allows for up to 50x apparent elapsed time (Enough for a 2-week adventure over a single night's sleep). Extended use not advised.

Kept in bag. Cody's gotten a bit obsessive about cleanliness thanks to the cat aspects.
