GET OUT OF MY HEAD, CHARLES

[mind_over_metal]

So, Charles is a telepath. To steal from my Stats/Permissions:

Super-duper telepath. Including, but likely not limited to...

-Basic mind-reading. It's just like any other sense -- he can be just casually hearing the thoughts of people around him or be actively listening in.
-Commandeering other people's senses (kind of like having human spy drones...)
-Commandeering other people's, uh... persons. Basically, he can turn other people into human puppets. It's entirely as god-moddy as it sounds.
-Talking to people inside of their heads (which, given his ability to hear other people's thoughts, means that he can have entirely mental conversations with people, telepaths or not)
-Exploring memories, even those no longer consciously remembered
-Erasing memories

Only other telepaths seem to know when Charles is being sneaky inside of their heads (sometimes he's obvious).

If there's anything mentally remarkable about your characters, I'd love it if you would please drop me a comment! Mental shields, mental blocks, amnesia, telepathy, etc. and anything else you can think of that might be relevant to our interests.

Obviously, I am not going to godmode anyone without their permission. I am usually on IRC if I'm RPing and can also be reached through gmail/gchat, so please, please talk to me! I'd love to do all sorts of stuff, and the sky's the limit and I put my IC powers at your OOC service for funtimes.

Also, if you want to have fun with it, I think something that might be fun would be that, if you ever feel like it, please feel free to indicate what your character is thinking during any thread that we're having together. It doesn't even have to have anything to do with anything. If we're talking about srs bizness monsters attacking camp and your character has a random craving for pizza, feel free to note it! Again, sky's the limit. If there's anything that you think would be funny or dramatic or meaty, I want to take advantage of that opportunity!

Finally, Charles is not shy about the brain-talking. I'm going to use italicized blue text as my mental convention. If you see that talking to you, then that's Charles talking with his brain! And if you have some sort of mental shield that means that Charles is shouting into the wind, just continue with your BAMF business, you.

Basically: I don't want to god-mode people. Communication is key, and I always, always want to talk to you. And I also am really eager to do all sort of crazy telepathic shit with you.

Raidou is not himself telepathic, but he has over twenty demon familiars at his disposal, and several of them are telepathic and will attempt to read his mind right back. As they are demons/angels/gods/Horsemen of the Apocalypse/Dante/et cetera, their thought processes will likely be pretty alien, with special mention going to Oboroguruma (insane demonic car wHO tALkS lIke THiS and thinks in word salad), Orochi (eight heads), and possibly Alice (homicidally unstable lolidemon). The demons probably won't be visible to Charles, unless things are very different in the movieverse, but at least two of them will be out with Raidou (three if you count Dante), and Raidou will be carrying the rest of them around with him in confinement tubes, so feel free to have Charles at least sense their presence.

Raidou himself has some ability to shield himself if he detects a mental intrusion.

Minako is relatively normal, but she does have twelve personae in her head at any given time; I'm not sure how that would read to a telepath. She is also [dead, and serves as the Great Seal preventing humanity's collective nihilism from allowing one eldritch abomination to summon another eldritch abomination to wipe out humanity].

Reid is also relatively normal, for certain highly idiosyncratic definitions of normal. I suspect the main issue for Xavier where Reid is concerned may be the sheer volume of information in his head, a not insignificant percentage of which revolves around grisly murders. I'm also sort of wondering if attempting to read Reid's mind while he's reading would give him some sort of psychic motion sickness.

...And belatedly, it occurs to me that attempting to talk to Reid telepathically is potentially a very bad idea given his family history, even if it is Charles Xavier (whom I'm assuming Reid has at least a passing familiarity with via the comics). He will not react well to disembodied voices in his head. Not that it wouldn't be interesting to play out at some point, but... idk.
