General
Character Name: Angela Dodson
Species (human/alien/vampire/other?): Human!
Extra-human/abnormal abilities, if any?: Canon is pretty vauge on what her ability actually is aside from the fact that she is extremely powerful. We know she is able to:
- See the influence of angels and demons on humans (meaning she can see demons and angels as well as humans being influenced by them - if someone is possessed, she would be able to tell)
- Sense when danger is present and protect herself from it (canon has her shooting three murderers over the course of about six months) even when there's no exterior evidence that the person is causing any harm to others
- See things that a person has done/what they intend to do/things that have happened to them (the novelization has her seeing flashes of a girl being strangled on a bench when a pedophile tries to approach her and her sister as a child and also has her able to see the events of a man's life when he's attempting to strangle her)
- Sense if a demon has recently been present in a building, especially if they've killed someone
- When discovering how Beeman was killed, she slips into a trance-like state where she sees his death through his murderer's eyes
Since there are no vampires or other types of monsters shown in Constantine (at least not in the movie), it's unclear whether or not she'd be able to sense them the way she does demons, but since she's able to see past transgressions, this would probably include being able to see past violence and feeding on humans, especially if it happened recently.
Psychology
1. Is it okay for your character's thoughts to be read/their mind to be probed?
You can try, but she would probably be able to sense that you're doing it. (See #5.)
2. Is it okay for any of your character’s intense/distressing memories to be seen/heard/read in this situation?
Yes.
3. What kind of mind does your character have? Are they disturbed at all? Are their thoughts ordered or jumbled?
Her mind is pretty clear, everything set into different categories and organized very well. Which doesn't mean she isn't disturbed - she has a psychic ability that she's suppressed until now which causes her to see some horrifying sights, her twin sister was committed when they were ten, she's a homicide detective in LA, and she was temporarily possessed by the son of the Devil. There's some very dark stuff in there.
4. Is it okay for your character’s emotions to be sensed?
Yes.
5. Does your character have a weak or strong mind? Are they susceptible to influence or hypnotism?
She has a very strong mind, and as for whether or not she'd be susceptible to influence or hypnotisim (or whether or not her thoughts could be read), her ability probably prevents that to a certain degree. I'm not saying it's not possible, but it would be very, very difficult.
6. Does your character have supernatural/mental fortification against mind-reading or telepathic communication?
See above.
7. In the case of characters who are extra-sentient/psychic and can just 'know' things about people, can the muns of these characters use the powers of Wikipedia to get information about your character?
Sure.
8. If so, is there anything that should absolutely never ever be brought up?
Her sister having been committed, her sister's death, and the guilt she feels over both. She'd prefer to keep the fact that she has an abilty at all kept tightly under wraps, as well as her possession by Mammon.
9. Anything that should absolutely be brought up?
Nothing I can think of.
10. Will thoughts in the narration be up for grabs? If so, how will you indicate these? Italics/strikes/something else?
Italics, if your character can get through her mental wall.
11. Does your character have any fears/phobias that you wouldn't mind being exploited? Ones that you'd like to NOT be exploited?
After nearly having been drowned/possessed by the son of the Devil in a pool, she's not a giant fan of those these days. She's also got an aversion to the smell of sulfur, but I wouldn't call that a fear. Aside from that, there's not really much that scares her; she's a tough lady.
Physiology
1. Is it okay for your character to be affected by chemical agents? Fear toxins, for example?
Yes.
2. Does your character have any unique biological difference that would affect their resistance to toxins/chemical substances?
Nope!
3. Does your character have any notable genetic/supernatural/biological difference that would make their blood in any way different to a regular baseline human's (that would make them taste different if they were fed on by a vampire, for example)?
She's...psychic, but I don't think it would make her taste any different.
Physical
1. How okay are you with your character coming to physical harm?
It's okay with me within reason - she's a well-trained fighter and can take care of herself, but she is only human; so I'd like to have anything big discussed with me first.
2. How okay are you with your character's home/possessions being targeted by bad guys?
Not very without prior notice.
3. Can your character be impacted by telekinesis?
Yes, but ask before you impact her with it.
4. With regard to vampires, would your character be willing to be a donor?
No.
5. If no, then how about unwilling?
Discuss it with me first.
6. With regard to shapeshifters, are you okay with having those with this power taking the shape of your character?
Discuss it with me first and it should be fine, but she will probably freak out.
7. If your character has any superhuman abilities, would you be okay with these being replicated by those who have the power to absorb/take on the powers of others?
Mmmm...again, talk to me about it first. This one I'm reluctant to answer 'yes' to, just because canon is so sketchy on what her ability actually is.
8. In a physical confrontation, is it okay if characters who have the power to sense/foresee/predict movements use this to their advantage against your character?
Sure.
9. Are you willing to participate in plots where your character will sustain damage outside of a fight, such as in situations with torture, environmental hazards, or accidents?
Yes, just talk to me about it first.
10. Is there anything about them that would stand out noticeably (things like scars, physical augmentations, illness, anomalies, etc.) if they were ever injured or otherwise examined by a doctor? Are any of these things noticeable to others without close inspection?
Nothing that that was mentioned in canon. It's likely that she has a few scars from on-the-job injuries and a doctor might be able to detect some trauma from nearly being drowned twice, but that's about all I can think of.
Magics
1. Can your character be influenced and tempted by magical or supernatural means?
Possibly, but there's still the issue of her mental barriers. If you want to tempt/influence her, just discuss it with me before you try anything.
2. If yes, will someone with the ability be able to find this out about them, and in what areas (think the seven deadly sins) can your character be tempted?
Wrath, possibly pride.
3. Could your character be glamoured (a form of mind control employed by vampires to make humans compliant/alter their memories etc.)?
They could try, but her ability would offer her a mental block to a certain degree.
4. Can your character be effected by spells of any kind, and are there any specific types to which they would be immune?
Yes, and none that I can think of.
5. Can your character's presence be sensed by characters with the power to read auras/pick up generalized vibes from people?
Yes.
6. If yes, what kind of stand-out things about your character can be sensed?
Her ability would probably be able to be sensed, other than that she'd feel like a baseline human.
7. With regard to characters that can sense danger/receive visions/predict general doom, are you okay with your character being the subject of any of this, if the occasion arises?
Yes, just discuss it with me first.
Privacy
1. Will your character change their name as it is shown on the map? If so, what will they change it to?
Probably not.
2. If they’re able, will they ever opt to hide their location on the map?
Yes.
3. If your character is from an earlier point in their canon than another member of your cast, what is and is not okay for your fellow castmate to spill the beans about regarding your character’s future?
She's from the end of her canon, so there's nothing to tell.
4. With regard to characters that like to snoop, can they find anything that's been publicly said by your character through the tablets?
Yes.
5. How about privately?
Discuss it with me, but if they're good hackers, I don't see why not.
6. Is there anything you'd especially like to be known about your character, for the purposes of amusement?
Nothing I can think of.
7. Anything you especially don't?
The guilt she feels about her sister being committed and the circumstances of her death and she doesn't want her ability announced to everyone.
8 Do you like threadhopping (a character not already in a thread jumping in unexpectedly to reply to a comment), and are you okay with other people threadhopping in your threads and posts?
I'm generally fine with this, but if a situation comes up where you feel you should ask my permission before threadhopping, please do.
