General
Character Name: Samuel "Sam" Axe
Species (human/alien/vampire/other?): Human
Extra-human/abnormal abilities, if any?: Liquor whisperer None.
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? Yes.
3. What kind of mind does your character have? Are they disturbed at all? Are their thoughts ordered or jumbled? Not disturbed, but Sam has the paranoia and reaction to action stimuli you'd expect from someone who spent twenty years at war, and many of those years at a front line. Has a surprisingly orderly and point A to point B mind, a labeller (of a lot of things; risk factor, ability-to-charm factor) and a planner. Is also a hedonist, so expect the idle or not-so-idle once-over of the ladies.
4. Is it okay for your character’s emotions to be sensed? Be my guest.
5. Does your character have a weak or strong mind? Are they susceptible to influence or hypnotism? Sam's someone who has been in the interrogation room a lot of times, and has seen influence practiced in military operations -- he's got no superhuman will, but the understanding of people trying to get into his head is one thing he does possess. Is +resistant to psychological breakdown.
6. Does your character have supernatural/mental fortification against mind-reading or telepathic communication? Nyet.
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? Absolutely.
8. If so, is there anything that should absolutely never ever be brought up? No game-breaking thing that I can think of.
9. Anything that should absolutely be brought up? Not that 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? My drug of choice is italics.
11. Does your character have any fears/phobias that you wouldn't mind being exploited? Ones that you'd like to NOT be exploited? Going along with the war issues, any lingering paranoia regarding threats to Michael Westen (and associated Westen Crew) are fair game -- Sam's touchy about a number of things, including the break-up of his marriage to Amanda, but really touchiness and fear is associated with Mike and washed-up Navy SEAL status.
Physiology
1. Is it okay for your character to be affected by chemical agents? Fear toxins, for example? Entirely.
2. Does your character have any unique biological difference that would affect their resistance to toxins/chemical substances? Not unless you count devoted inhalation of mojitos. No.
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)? No, but insert comments here about blood in his alcohol stream.
Physical
1. How okay are you with your character coming to physical harm? So okay. He's used to it.
2. How okay are you with your character's home/possessions being targeted by bad guys? Again, so used to it.
3. Can your character be impacted by telekinesis? Yes.
4. With regard to vampires, would your character be willing to be a donor? No. It would have to be one hell of a Make A Wish story for Sam to be a willing blood donor to a vampire. It's risky, and it's also analogous to him as "let me shoot you but not fatally." Why do that.
5. If no, then how about unwilling? Should be discussed beforehand, but I'm game.
6. With regard to shapeshifters, are you okay with having those with this power taking the shape of your character? Entirely.
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? n/a
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? Go ahead.
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? Absolutely.
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? Sam has a couple of war scars and injuries -- nothing disfiguring, but noticeable during close inspection. No tattoos, despite what you hear about Navy SEALs.
Magics
1. Can your character be influenced and tempted by magical or supernatural means? Absolutely.
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? Yes! With regard to the sins, definitely pride and lust. And, admittedly, "sloth" and "greed," though the greed is not centered around filthy lucre so much as it is the finer things in life -- you know, nice cars, great scotch. "Pride" is the one you wouldn't expect, as Sam has sold out so much of it, but it's definitely there, albeit bitterly. And lust -- Sam is a ladykiller (figurative).
3. Could your character be glamoured (a form of mind control employed by vampires to make humans compliant/alter their memories etc.)? Sure thing, though again, ask.
4. Can your character be effected by spells of any kind, and are there any specific types to which they would be immune? Sam is just your average genetically human joe, and is not immune to the bibbity-bobbity-boo.
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? Human, but kind of a loud, boozy-charm human, extraordinarily alert but also high on the connection to other humans, if that makes any sense. Like a plant with loud colours to attract bees.
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? Sam wishes he could sense danger. But sure.
Privacy
1. Will your character change their name as it is shown on the map? If so, what will they change it to? If there's any chance of dissembling, yes, and "Chuck Finley".
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? Can't think of anything on either side.
4. With regard to characters that like to snoop, can they find anything that's been publicly said by your character through the tablets? Go ahead.
5. How about privately? Go ahead.
6. Is there anything you'd especially like to be known about your character, for the purposes of amusement? Sam and mojitos are just a thing. One true love. He's the guy with the drinks.
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? I'm absolutely fine with the latter, and I do like doing the former at times as long as it's not jacking a thread wholesale and makes IC sense.
