Dec. 21st, 2023 03:01 amBetween Alastor's telepathic/empathic abilities and the fact that he literally lives in the movies, it's very easy to cross into infomodding with him. So to avoid that, I have here a handy little permissions post for these abilities.
Telepathy: Simply put, is he allowed to read your character's thoughts or project his voice into their mind?
Empathy: Can he sense your character's emotions? Normally he has to do this deliberately, but he might pick up on particularly strong emotions without even trying.
Is your character from a movie? Self explanatory.
If yes, can he be aware of this? If you'd rather not have your character directly fourth walled, he could have been through a movie that's remarkably similar but not quite the same.
If no, can he be aware of popular references to your character's canon? No major details, but things he might find in a show within a show or similar shout outs.
(Players from Daybreak Academy only need to answer the first two questions.)

Date: 2013-12-22 06:29 am (UTC)Empathy: Yes to both Donna and Bertie. Bertie's extremely easy to read, even without magical empathy.
Is your character from a movie? No, neither of them are.
If yes, can he be aware of this? N/A
If no, can he be aware of popular references to your character's canon?
Yes to Donna. She's a Doctor Who character, which I imagine he would have heard of. Bertie... about the only pop culture reference to Bertie's canon that Alastor would be likely to pick up is that he has a highly intelligent valet named Jeeves, which is a little odd. Jeeves has more or less entered pop culture as the name for a competent and knowledgeable servant (See the AskJeeves search engine).
