GENERAL

Spirit Channeling

As a spirit medium, Maya's able to call the spirit of a deceased person into her body, essentially channeling them. Her body shifts to match the body of the dead person - that is, several of her physical characteristics change to match theirs. Her physique changes to match the spirit she’s channeling, but her hair stays mostly the same.

She's unable to control her body during this time, and has no recollection of whatever goes on while the spirit is in her. The duration seems to depend on her spiritual power, and since she recently did a lot of training, she’s able to channel for several hours. However, as soon as the channeling ends - Maya is left feeling weak and faint.

What does this mean for you? It means, if your character dies and you want Maya to try channeling them (or even an NPC) or something, we could work something out. From my understanding, dead characters are monsters during the night, so it would have to be during the day.



SIREN'S PULL

Okay, now that Maya's Core-power is finally starting to develop...

Chat with a ghost

Her Core-given power is to induce a hallucination in the other person. More specifically, a hallucination - that they’re having an encounter with the closest person to them that died.

It basically works like a strong illusion- lasting anywhere from 30 seconds to 10 minutes, but the “encounter” (whether it’s happy/sad/etc) would be left completely up to the other mun. The entire thing would feel real to the character - but it would pretty much take place all in their head. So, during that time - the character would essentially be… physically still and unmoving - lost to the real world- while the “meeting” played out in their head. Like a very vivid dream - but the kind of dream you don’t realize is one.

With mun permission, Maya would be able to get a glimpse of the dead person’s face!

This ability only works on people who’ve had someone close to them die. So for example, if someone had no one important to them die - it wouldn’t work at all. Even if people they know have died, the person they hallucinate seeing has to have had an emotional impact on them when they died, or it won’t work.

However, if their loved one came back to life and/or died in the Port, it would also count. So that loved one could be alive again because of the Core - but regardless, there’d still be a vision of them.

This ability will only fly with permission from the other mun, (you!) and it's initiated by touch. It could also work defensively (IE: If Maya ever needed to run away, there’s a distraction) and has some plot potential… Such as giving someone closure/traumatizing them or even… someone getting fixated with the idea of being able to see their loved one again and such.

So if you ever want Maya to channel your character/NPC or something, or you want to have your character have a CHAT WITH SOME DEAD JERKFACE (THAT THEY LOVE).... Hit me up! This post is for plotting and stuff!



SOUL CAMPAIGN

Soul Perception

Maya's got the ability of Soul Perception!

Essentially (my understanding anyway) is that she can see your soul. Whether you're a Meister/Weapon/Witch/whatever, and as she develops her power, the nature of the soul and possibly aspects of personality and such.

So! What I need from you! If you could describe your character's souls/anything else of interest for me, (What you're okay with her seeing!) that would be great!

I think this may only apply to face-to-face meetings, but either way it would be great to have! Thank you.
