part i.
Character name: Raven Darkholme
Fandom: X-Men: First Class
Species (vampire, werewolf, what have you): mutant
Character powers: Shapeshifting mainly, with minor powers in self-healing, longevity, and resistance to poisons/toxins.
part ii.
1.) Is it acceptable for your character to be mind-controlled or persuaded? How susceptible are they to mind control, hypnotism, or suggestion?
This is a touchy issue considering what Raven is hiding and the fact that her best friend is a telepath. I would allow it only after OOC discussion and only if there's some kind of plot or CR benefit to come out of it, and if the character doing it is ready to deal with serious fallout.
2.) Is it acceptable for your character to have their mind read? Does this include traumatic memories? What is their mind like (disturbing, orderly, joyful, surprisingly empty, etc.)? If the character has psychic walls or preventative measures against psychic interference, please explain.
Please see the answer to #1 above.
3.) Are thoughts mentioned in narration acceptable for a telepath to pick up?
Only if prior arrangements have been made.
4.) What about emotions, in the case of an empath? What sort of general emotional reading would such a character receive from yours?
Surface emotions are fine, but not deeper emotions. Raven would have the expected emotions appropriate to the situation, with maybe an undercurrent of general dissatisfaction and worry.
5.) Are there any aspects of your character's mind, emotions, or memories you would like to be picked up, mentioned, or used in character? Conversely, is there anything that should not be noticed, or at least never mentioned?
Not unless arranged OOCly.
part iii.
1.) Physically speaking, what stands out about your character? Imposing size? Physical scarring? Tattoos?
Raven's true form is deep blue and covered in a texture that looks like feathery scales. She also has yellow eyes.
2.) Is your character immune to any of the following: poisons, chemical agents, telekinetic influence, radiation, or types of illnesses?
She's resistant to poisons and toxins.
3.) Is your character physiologically different from a human in any way? This can include their blood, skin, hair, et cetera being made up of something unusual or simply differing in construction and durability.
Raven is genetically different from a normal human. She can alter the structure of her body at supposedly a molecular level, although she has to remain humanoid in shape. But this does mean she can mimic not only physical appearance but also clothing. Additionally she ages at a much slower rate, recovers from injury more quickly, and is resistant to poisons and toxins. Analysis of her blood/DNA would reveal these differences.
4.) Are you amenable to having your character be harmed in any way? How far are you comfortable with injury to you character going? Does this include being fed on by vampires, willingly or unwillingly?
Yes I am, although anything beyond superficial or minor injury I would like to just discuss in advance. The same goes for being fed on by vampires.
5.) Is it acceptable for other characters with abilities of shapeshifting or disguise to imitate your character? Does this include ability mimicry?
Yes, and that would be funny and ironic, in fact. I would prefer anyone interested in mimicry of her abilities to talk to me about it OOCly.
part iv.
1.) Can your character's presence or aura be noticed by other characters, and how would it look/feel to them? How would it manifest to a character with no supernatural abilities, if at all?
Raven can't produce an aura visible to people who normally don't see them. Her own aura would probably be always in flux, due to her shapeshifting abilities.
2.) Can your character be affected by magic spells and curses?
Yes.
3.) Can your character be affected by sin and corruption, and be tempted toward expressing their darker urges (of whatever flavor)?
Yes.
4. What sort of sins is the character prone toward, and how might they best be tempted, if you are interested in such an event?
Pride would be a huge one.
5.) Are you amenable to the character receiving prophetic visions, including as part of a plot?
Sure.
part v.
1.) Is canon-puncturing or fourth-walling acceptable? We encourage people to tread extremely lightly with allowing their character to learn they are fictional.
I'd prefer not.
2. Is threadjacking allowed? Under what circumstances?
Yes, just please be courteous and don't jack threads that are clearly serious and personal in nature if you're just trolling.
3. Is it acceptable for canonmates that are updated further than yours to inform your character of events yours has not yet experienced?
I would prefer that people be very careful about doing this.
4. Are there triggering or upsetting topics you would like other characters to avoid mentioning to yours for the sake of continued comfort (racist words, homophobia, self-injury, etc.)?
Not really.
5. Are there any additions you would like us to make to this survey?
Not at this time.
