OOC PERMISSIONS

Player: Shana

Preferred Contact: plurk: antivillain, discord: antivillain#2451

Usual tagging times/pace: EST, slow to medium pace.

Backtagging: Of course!

Fourthwalling policy: I would be very surprised if this comes up, but sure! I have no problem with it.

Action vs. Prose: Either

Offensive Subjects & Content Warnings: None for me, but Toby's power is blood-related so there's going to be a lot of blood cws for her, and specifically it often involves her cutting herself to access said blood. If you would like me to avoid discussing this or any other subject, or if you'd like to avoid threading with Toby altogether, let me know here! Please also feel free to pm me.

IC PERMISSIONS

Physical Violence: Pretty comfortable, but let's really talk about it.

Mental Information: Toby's seen some shit. I'm cool threading it out but again, let's talk OOCly first.

Physical Affection: I'm down if it makes sense!

IC Triggers: Nothing in particular.

Relationships: I'm open to any and all CR, though she might be slow to make romantic connections since she's currently engaged.

POWER-SPECIFIC AND/OR SPOILER PERMISSIONS

Toby's blood magic has lots of uses, but the one that she'll be using most frequently is her ability to sense the balance of the blood. Or more precisely, to sense what species a person is. It's pretty subtle and most people don't know she's doing it when she does, as the only outward sign is that she opens her mouth a bit to "taste" it.

In her world, she's only used the ability on Fae, since no non-Fae supernatural creatures have shown up, but I'm going to extend it to non-Fae here. She won't know what a vampire or werewolf feel like at first, for instance, but she won't forget once she learns. I'm gonna also say that different canon creatures have a slightly different taste, though not enough to be unrecognizable.

She can also smell magic and recognize who cast a certain spell by the particular smell left. For instance, her own magic smells like copper and cut grass, while the Tybalt's magic smells like pennyroyal and musk. Feel free to make up some sort of combination for your character!

She has other powers, too, like her ability to see a person's memories by tasting their blood, or her ability to actually change the balance of the blood, but she's very unlikely to use these abilities unless it comes up in a plot, in which case it would be better to discuss it then, as I'd need specific information in that case.

I realize that such knowledge can be pretty infomoddy if not dealt with carefully, so I intend to check with other players before having her use any abilities. To speed that along, however, I have made this handy dandy permissions post!

<b>Character Name:</b> <b>Species:</b> If they're a mix, like a dhampir or a changeling, please note that too! <b>Can your character do magic? If yes, what does the magic smell like?</b> <b>Are you ok with Toby trying to sense these things?</b> <b>Other notes:</b> For instance, if there's some reason she wouldn't be able to get a read or there would be something odd about what she senses. Let me know!

Character Name: Castor Westmoore

Species: Human!....well, Hyur, but they're the human analog in FF14 so close enough.
Can your character do magic? If yes, what does the magic smell like? Ish. Castor uses her own body's aether (magic energy/life energy) to power her Video Game Superpower Speed and some attacks, but doesn't necessarily use it in a traditional "Magic" sense. It probably smells like lightning/ozone, or the aftermath of a storm.
Are you ok with Toby trying to sense these things? Ye!
Other notes: She's bonded to a pixie, who at some point took up the mantle of Titania/king of the fae. Feo Ul is most pointedly NOT in LifeAftr, but if Toby wants to pick up on that, go for it.
