[Siren's Pull] Permissions Post
This is in three parts.
First, Lois has a dormant ability in Siren's Pull, not currently active but still subtle. Once she is aware of it, she will be able to trigger it more specifically and more powerfully, with increasing power as she gets better. The power is not exactly telepathic, and relies as much on physical tells (think of Cal Lightman in Lie to Me). It would take control of both to fight her.
Disclaimer: The description is of Judge's Ear Technique, taken directly from the Exalted core rulebook, property of White Wolf.
The character can recognize as lies all deliberate lies presented to her. The character can also recognize the deliberate use of half-truths, though doing so does not tell her which part of the statement is true.
Secondly, Lois is an investigative reporter, checking into sketchy clubs, companies, gangs, and situations as well as murders. She also builds a lot of contacts (NPC and PC) all around the city. She may not have the forensic genius, but she's got intuition and drive and is very, very good at her job. She also gets into a lot of trouble that nearly gets her killed.
If you'd like to be an info source or like to place a limit on what she can find out in her investigations, this is the place to let me know. Naturally, this is for casual day-to-day stuff; big stuff I will discuss at length before hand.
Lastly, Lois cracks pop-culture references often and is verging on genre savvy. Because her world is vaguely real-world, some canons are specifically referenced. I will keep this updated as I rewatch the series (it could take a while), and if there is a specific change which would affect your character I will message you.
If you want to know how deep or complicated her knowledge of a canon is, just ask me, and if you have specific requests regarding her not-remembering things, just let me know here. She will in general know better than to say anything, and does not fangirl. (Much.)
UPDATED 10/26/11: The (currently recorded) specifically referenced canons are:
- Greek mythology (questionable)
- Egyptian mythology
- Star Wars
- Star Trek
- Wizard of Oz
- ET (questionable)
- Peter Pan
- Chicken Little
- Little Mermaid
- Sherlock Holmes
- Scooby Doo
- Popeye
- Mickey and Minnie
- Christmas Carol
- 1001 Arabian Nights
- Sex and The City
- Disney in general (questionable, but given the above trend...)
