Hello!

I am a stick.

Welcome to the shard. Have a cookie and an upvote.

Will you say, "My life to yours, my Breath become yours." for initiation.

I'm going to take a wild guess that your favorite character is stick.

I'm sorry, I am unable to accept your gracious offer of giving you investiture. However, I will gladly become an inquisitor. If you eat a spike, do you become an inquisitor? Ruin could just make really tiny spikes and pour them down wells, mind controlling anyone who drank.

My favorite character is not stick. What makes you think that? My favorite character is Hoid.

If you want spikes, just step into this Dark Alley and take one!

Hmmmm...I wonder if that would work.  If they were so small you could drink them, then they'd have to be REALLY sharp to have any chance of sticking in you.

One presumes they have to stick into you, and it's not enough to just have a spike floating around inside.  Perhaps one presumes wrongly!

Do they need to pierce the skin?  Could a tiny metal splinter do the trick?

We should investigate...for science!

They only need to touch blood. Microscopic spikes infiltrating the blood stream would work. They would pass through the heart, a bond point, and become Hemalugically charged.
