SENSING PERMISSION POST
SENSOR PERMISSION POST
In D.Gray-Man, one of Allen's special abilities is the ability to see the souls of Akuma as well as any dark matter/energy that may come from a person or an akuma. This is part of what makes him special from the get-go, it's super plot relevant to the character and why he looks so weird and a bunch of other shonen crap. GO READ D.GRAY-MAN IF YOU WANT TO KNOW ALL THAT EMOTIONAL JUNK.
Of course when playing in a panfandom game, this can cause either a lot of headaches or a lot of cool plot potentials. So to avoid godmodding people, I'm putting up a permission post so people can say whether or not you want his curse to work on your character! Whether you wish to have him be able to sense them or not, it's highly recommended you talk to any castmates first that may be in a similar situation as your character. Since it'd make no sense for Allen to be able to sense Edward Cullen but not Alice Cullen and overall it's just not fair to not let your castmates have a say too. As for people who join your cast later, if it becomes an issue we're work it out case by case scenario!
And here are some guidelines for Allen's curse:
- ALLEN CANNOT DETECT MOST MAGIC. The only magic that could possibly apply to this is dark/undead/demonic-based magic. If your character is magical in a way that's not dark based or demonic? He can't sense of thing.
- Allen can detect souls when there is a dead soul being harnessed for power. Unless the soul itself is horribly damaged or eroded, he can usually identify the soul by whoever they originally were. It just looks...hella disturbing since they are usually chained up and in pain...oh and screaming.
- If you stand near Allen and he's fairly close to one of these people mentioned in #2 (lets say the same room), you would be able to see it too.....yay?
- He can also sense dark energy/dark matter if it's coming from a person. It comes in the form a black haze that surrounds the source of the dark energy (for example: a character with a demonic arm would only have haze around the arm!). The stronger the demonic/dark energy/wtfever is? The darker the haze.
- If you fall under #4, it can be easy to trick allen's sensor. If you can conceal the energy, Allen won't detect anything until you use it. Also if your character is good at going undetected despite sensors? He won't necessarily pick you up either. For example, a special trait of a Noah is that Allen's eye cannot pick them up what so ever. Magic can also block his abilities, a good strength barrier spell can block his curse and of course the castle will always trump his skills.
- His ability has a range of 300 yards (275m) and he can sense through objects. HOWEVER he rarely uses the full range to save on his sanity (probably keeps it to a floor or two if he has it on) and he can only identify souls he sees through walls. For people who only come up as dark energy, he just knows...there's a lot of dark energy a few floors down and maybe he should stay away.
