Otherwise it's an interesting aesthetic decision for explaining why your character has certain abilities or an excess of aether, but no more or less than any other aesthetic decision.
So that's my question: instead of "how could we make this work," what about "How could this go wrong in ways that are useful for roleplay?"
I wouldn't mind the experiments going awry, in fact, I kind of expect them to. I alright with this causing tension between my character and others, but, again, I want to make sure this works with the lore somewhat. And like another poster said before, I don't want people to treat this as an opportunity to get "Mary-Sue" implants.
