Dagna is magically pretty interesting. There are high concentrations of an unknown magical substance in her bloodstream, which appears to be some kind of living symbiote. Somewhat overshadowed by that, several of the lenses on her goggles seem to be infused with small amounts of the same magical substance, and several of the rest of the lenses are infused with a noticeably different variant of the same stuff. The blood-based variant is significantly more powerful.
"There mostly only seems to be one or at most two kinds of magic in my world, although it manifests very differently in different contexts," she says while he's busy scanning. "And you could mistake it for being lots of different things, and for thousands of years people did, even when they really should've known better. But one way or another it all comes back to lyrium and the Fade. And one day I'll figure out how those relate."
