General

Character Name: Anita Blake
Species (human/alien/vampire/other?): Human
Extra-human/abnormal abilities, if any?: First and foremost, Anita is an extremely proficient animator. She has an innate affinity for the dead and the ability to raise and control zombies, which she does for a living. She has some training in vaudun, thanks to her maternal grandmother, and exercises her powers regularly to keep them in check. In truth, she is not just an animator, but a true necromancer - her powers extend to all dead, including vampires, and though there has been evidence of this in the past, it has yet to be confirmed by anyone proficient in necromancy. Since it’s such a rare gift, she has not yet come into contact with someone who could properly recognize it. As an animator, she has partial immunity to vampire powers such as mind control. She can also sense how old a vampire is pretty accurately, usually within a decade or so.

Psychology

1. Is it okay for your character's thoughts to be read/their mind to be probed? Yes, but it will be difficult, thanks to her innate abilities as an animator.

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? Very ordered thoughts, very rational. For someone who deals regularly with the undead, the regular dead, and various monsters, she's actually quote sane.

4. Is it okay for your character’s emotions to be sensed? Yes.

5. Does your character have a weak or strong mind? Are they susceptible to influence or hypnotism? Very strong mind, not very susceptible to outside influence. It would take someone with an impressive degree of power to put her under.

6. Does your character have supernatural/mental fortification against mind-reading or telepathic communication? Yes, being an animator grants her strong resistance against mind-reading or mind control. She can, however, receive telepathic communication specifically from vampires with general ease, since being a necromancer means she has a great affinity for the dead.

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? Yes, to a degree -- ask me for specifics! :)

8. If so, is there anything that should absolutely never ever be brought up? Nope.

9. Anything that should absolutely be brought up? Not especially.

10. Will thoughts in the narration be up for grabs? If so, how will you indicate these? Italics/strikes/something else? Depends on the situation and the power of the mind-reader involved, check with me! I am pretty flexible, though, and for the most part I'm all about making things known that will get my kids into trouble.

11. Does your character have any fears/phobias that you wouldn't mind being exploited? Ones that you'd like to NOT be exploited? Extreme claustrophobia, which you are welcome to exploit. She is also terrified of becoming a lycanthrope or a vampire; she's smart enough to be afraid of the monsters that she hunts, despite having made friends with a great number of them.

Physiology

1. Is it okay for your character to be affected by chemical agents? Fear toxins, for example? Yes.

2. Does your character have any unique biological difference that would affect their resistance to toxins/chemical substances? Nope.

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)? Her blood tastes sweeter and counts for a lot more than a regular human's, since she is a necromancer. There's probably some "kick" to it, and it would take less to sate a vampire's appetite.

Physical

1. How okay are you with your character coming to physical harm? Very okay. She's already covered in scars, what's a few more?

2. How okay are you with your character's home/possessions being targeted by bad guys? Fine with it!

3. Can your character be impacted by telekinesis? Yes, but like with mind-reading, it would be difficult. Will handle this on a case-by-case basis, feel free to contact me!

4. With regard to vampires, would your character be willing to be a donor? No, it grosses her out, she's seen too many willing victims turn out badly back in St. Louis to be okay with this.

5. If no, then how about unwilling? Absolutely.

6. With regard to shapeshifters, are you okay with having those with this power taking the shape of your character? Yes!

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? Yes!

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? Yes.

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? Yes.

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? Anita is covered in scars. Her left arm and collarbone are a mess of white scar tissue, and there's a giant, white, cross-shaped scar on her left forearm. There are other scars on her neck, as well, and a large one on her back where a human servant attacked her with a stake.

Magics

1. Can your character be influenced and tempted by magical or supernatural means? Yes.

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; her major downfall would be pride.

3. Could your character be glamoured (a form of mind control employed by vampires to make humans compliant/alter their memories etc.)? Not unless the vampire is several centuries old or extremely powerful. She has partial immunity.

4. Can your character be effected by spells of any kind, and are there any specific types to which they would be immune? She can be effected by any kind of magic pretty much equally.

5. Can your character's presence be sensed by characters with the power to read auras/pick up generalized vibes from people? Yes.

6. If yes, what kind of stand-out things about your character can be sensed? They would definitely be able to sense that she has an impressive amount of untapped power, and to anyone looking strictly at the metaphysical, she reeks of death.

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? Yes!

Privacy

1. Will your character change their name as it is shown on the map? If so, what will they change it to? No.

2. If they’re able, will they ever opt to hide their location on the map? It's possible, but it would be very situational. She would rather confront things head-on than hide, whenever possible.

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? Anything is fine, as far as sharing goes.

4. With regard to characters that like to snoop, can they find anything that's been publicly said by your character through the tablets? Yes!

5. How about privately? Very possible -- will handle this on a case-by-case basis also, ask me! I will almost always say yes.

6. Is there anything you'd especially like to be known about your character, for the purposes of amusement? Not at the moment!

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? Threadhopping is always just fine with me.
