Origins[]
Paddy Barrie was a horse doper who was most famous for changing the colors of horses, changing guaranteed losers with impossible odds into winners. He would heat different varieties of inks on his stove and then pigment a horse with a good track record to look identical to a sure fired loser in an upcoming race. With high odds, the suspected last place loser wins, giving Barrie thousands in betting money. However, the Pinkerton Detective Agency eventually caught on, deported him back to Scotland where he died six months later from constant surveillance under Scotland Yard.
Effects[]
When a brush is dipped in a liquid heated on the stove, the brush can change colors of whatever it touches. It looks especially realistic when used on creatures like horses or humans. However, the effects on skin and flesh only last a week before petering out.
When the Endless Paint Can is used with the brushes, it allows a person affected by it to have complete control over color. This includes reflectivity, transparency, camouflage, invisibility and the creation of mesmerizing patterns that can hypnotize or scare away people.
