Permissions meme for Taxon
General
Character Name: Dwight Hendrickson
Species (human/alien/vampire/other?): Human
Extra-human/abnormal abilities, if any?: Bullet magnet. You shoot within a hundred yard radius, bullets veer off and hit him. Not exactly the best of powers.
Psychology
1. Is it okay for your character's thoughts to be read/their mind to be probed? Absolutely.
2. Is it okay for any of your character’s intense/distressing memories to be seen/heard/read in this situation? Yup.
3. What kind of mind does your character have? Are they disturbed at all? Are their thoughts ordered or jumbled? Dark. Very, very dark, which is odd considering his usual disposition. His mind is a bad, bad place.
4. Is it okay for your character’s emotions to be sensed? Absolutely!
5. Does your character have a weak or strong mind? Are they susceptible to influence or hypnotism? I'd say it's fairly strong, but he's just human, so yes, susceptible, for sure.
6. Does your character have supernatural/mental fortification against mind-reading or telepathic communication? nope.
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? Yup! If Wiki doesn't work, feel free to browse his app. I filled in a lot of blanks.
8. If so, is there anything that should absolutely never ever be brought up? Anything's fair game.
9. Anything that should absolutely be brought up? His daughter. Oh dear god, his daughter.
10. Will thoughts in the narration be up for grabs? If so, how will you indicate these? Italics/strikes/something else? Probably italics, but for sure they're up for grabs.
11. Does your character have any fears/phobias that you wouldn't mind being exploited? Ones that you'd like to NOT be exploited? Like I said, anything's fair game.
Physiology
1. Is it okay for your character to be affected by chemical agents? Fear toxins, for example? Yup! He's a big, big guy, so you might have to use a lot, though.
2. Does your character have any unique biological difference that would affect their resistance to toxins/chemical substances? Nope. He's not resistant, just huge.
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)? I'm going to say no, because Troubled people really are just humans, but I'll update this when we get a definitive answer from the show.
Physical
1. How okay are you with your character coming to physical harm? Sure, but you have to realize he's going to fight back and he was an army ranger.
2. How okay are you with your character's home/possessions being targeted by bad guys? Absolutely.
3. Can your character be impacted by telekinesis? Yup!
4. With regard to vampires, would your character be willing to be a donor? Absolutely. Helping out other troubled people, right?
5. If no, then how about unwilling? N/A
6. With regard to shapeshifters, are you okay with having those with this power taking the shape of your character? Yup!
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? I have no idea why you'd WANT it, but sure.
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? Yup.
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? Ab-so-lutely.
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? His face is rough, he's had his nose broken a few times, it's part of the job. Also, the moment he takes off his shirt there's bullet holes everywhere. He's literally riddled with them, so the scars will definitely show and be obvious to anyone who isn't a doctor.
Magics
1. Can your character be influenced and tempted by magical or supernatural means? Yuuup.
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? Guilt. Oh god, guilt. You can get him to do anything if you hit the right button.
3. Could your character be glamoured (a form of mind control employed by vampires to make humans compliant/alter their memories etc.)? Yeah. Won't be too happy about it though.
4. Can your character be effected by spells of any kind, and are there any specific types to which they would be immune? None.
5. Can your character's presence be sensed by characters with the power to read auras/pick up generalized vibes from people? Absolutely.
6. If yes, what kind of stand-out things about your character can be sensed? He's troubled. Literally and figuratively--as mentioned before, Dwight's mind is a dark, dark place.
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? Hell yeah. It's already happened in the show, so. XD
Privacy
1. Will your character change their name as it is shown on the map? If so, what will they change it to? Nope.
2. If they’re able, will they ever opt to hide their location on the map? If I mention it (if he can figure it out).
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? Yessss!
4. With regard to characters that like to snoop, can they find anything that's been publicly said by your character through the tablets? Sure.
5. How about privately? Sure!
6. Is there anything you'd especially like to be known about your character, for the purposes of amusement? He looks like an angry viking. Please call him out on this.
7. Anything you especially don't? Nope.
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? Threadhop if you let me know in advance, or I'll be terribly thrown off.
