Okay, so! Shawn is not a psychic. He does, however, have a photographic memory and mad observation and deduction skills. This means he can-- possibly-- tell a lot about your character just by looking at them. Obviously, there is a godmod line that could be crossed here. I don't want to do that! But I also don't want to tone down Shawn's

AWESOME

Zeke
Okay, the obvious shit first. Zeke has a black snake tattoo on the right side of his face. It's super obvious. His nose is also crooked from being broken and he has a good amount of scarring, so it'd be safe to guess he used to be in some sort of violent activities way back when. He used to be in a gang 8D

He also walks with a limp, which might suggest some sort of injury, but it's actually a symptom of the imaginary disease he has. So idk. Also he's a cook and in the kitchen CONSTANTLY, so maybe he smells like food or tastes like food or covered in food who knows. Also he SMILES FOREVER.

Mimmi
Mimmi is a lot harder. She's sort of an awkward person, and obviously uncomfortable in large crowds, especially if she's transported there at random. And i can't think of anything else so i'll edit if I do.

Tyler (this journal)
Nothing really here. :| He looks, smells, sounds pretty normally human. Sometimes he'll behave differently but it's pretty obvious when he does.

Leonardo (betterthanraph)
This might be a stretch, but I think Shawn might be able to tell that Leo's a giant man-turtle.

Bass/Forte (erhabenheit)
His footfalls are a lot more solid/heavy-sounding than normal human footfalls. If Shawn has really good hearing or if it's quiet (or if Bass cracks his knuckles, as he tends to do before he fights something) then he might be able to hear metallic-sounding clicks or the faint hum of a power reactor.

Daxter (does-everything)
Honestly, Daxter broadcasts absolutely everything about himself anyway so there's really not much Shawn can observe that isn't OBVIOUS.

Billy, generally speaking, is an extremely suspicious little bugger when it comes to people he doesn't know. He won't let someone within 5 paces unless he's pretty sure they're not hostile and a hand will stay near a satchel he has on him at all times. Other traits include a southern accent (not sure if its enough of an accent to pinpoint a state because I fail at advanced accent detection, but I pegged him as being from Oklahoma), a 'rusty' sense of humor (even if it wasn't that funny, people tend to laugh or smile at a joke to signify 'I got it.' Billy usually won't do that unless he really is amused, and he also won't be trying for humor himself), appearing 'dumb' or uneducated (in his canon, he has to ask what the earth's axis is and what's heritage. He was 15 at the time), and no problems with asking questions when they arise.

Raoul is obviously French by his accent, from a high social class by his mannerisms, and, as of recently, extremely depressed. I can't think of anything else in particular for Raoul, but I'd love to

For Astrid, he'd probably notice that for all her bravado, she doesn't show many signs of having fought that much. Quite possibly that she's not as confident as she seems, either.

Pointing out either might get him hit, but hey. =p

to shawn it would be easy to tell at first glance that lily isn't 100% human, if the collar around her neck didn't tip him off already. lily moves in silence no matter what she's doing, and she has incredible reflexes. she has a nervous tic in that she twists a ring around her thumb - a big gold one with a pink diamond inset - when she's nervous or uncomfortable. she throws up about a thousand mental walls at the mention of her past or missing family. lily has a lot of ugly scars on her shoulders and one that follows the length of her spine. there's always a big of cupcake icing on her person, usually on her sleeves or dried on her hands. get her angry enough and her personality will flip 180. when she's (or thinks she is) alone she hums dolly parton. in an average day she's bound to mention the terminator movies at least once.

GOD DAMN THIS IS LONG

LILY DOES A LOT OF OBVIOUS THINGS BUT I CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO LIST ALL OF THEM
