BASIC PERMISSIONS
[OOC]
Backtagging: Always.
Threadhopping: In open network threads, go for it! For logs/action, please ask first.
Fourthwalling: No thank you.
Offensive subjects: Body horror can sometimes squick me pretty bad, so I'd rather know what I'm getting into if it's going to come up in a scene. Other than that, I don't have any hard limits when it comes to subject matter (and even that's like... a medium limit).
[IC]
Hugging this character: With positive CR, yes! It'll surprise him, but it won't be unwelcome.
Kissing this character: On the cheek/forehead, yes.
Flirting with this character: You can try, but he's not likely to respond in kind.
Fighting with this character: Yes, but let's talk about it OOC before getting into it.
Injuring this character: Yes, but let's talk about it OOC before getting into it.
Killing this character: Only with plotting beforehand.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Yes, although depending on the nature of your character's ability, Cole may be able to tell they're doing it.
Warnings: Cole's backstory contains themes of child abuse and torture. It will usually only be referred to in an oblique manner.
Get your own copy of the IC/OOC Permissions meme!
ABILITY-BASED PERMISSIONS
As a spirit of compassion, Cole has the ability to "see/hear" other peoples' pain. This can range across anything from hurtful or bittersweet memories, to current fears or anxieties, to knowing what a person needs to make them feel better. In canon, he often comments on the things he sees in peoples' heads. It usually comes from a place of curiosity or wanting to help.
Some characters may be more difficult to read due to mental abilities of their own, and if there are any specific memories players would rather not be poked at, I can find a way to play around them. I do want to make sure I'm not stepping on anyone's toes OOC. Please c/p from the text box and comment!
Cole also has abilities that allow him to be invisible and affect people's memories, but since Shardbearers have an easier time seeing and remembering him, this will be handled on a case-by-case basis. More details about Cole's powers in general can be found over here.

Can Cole read your character's feelings? yes
Can he read your character's memories? yes
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? yes
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? she does have some experience dealing with mindreading, but it's minimal—her defenses consist of clearing her mind if she knows that someone she's speaking to can read her thoughts, mostly by focusing on blankness and blocking her own thoughts/emotions from herself.

Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes
Can he read your character's memories? Yes--to an extent
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read?
Okay HERE IS THE DEAL WITH VANESSA (if you are canon blind). I am waaaay open to him knowing her feelings etc. She tends to keep a mask up, and not let people know what she truly feels.
Memories, I have no issue, but as she tends to have some of the capabilities of her own, she can't really *block* him, but she will most likely know he's rooting around. I'm fine with that--but definitely a more case by case basis.
She will also most likely be able to feel that he is not human--not what he is, exactly, but she'll know that he's otherworldly.
Vanessa also is possessed. She is the reincarnation of the Egyptian Goddess Amunet, who sometimes takes control of her, and is a giant dickbag. Mainly because the creature within her and the Devil really want her to basically become the bride of Satan and be the mother of all evil. You know. The good stuff.
And she *really* needs some help getting the Amunet stuff under control (very soon in the future--so potential cr there?)

Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes
Can he read your character's memories? Yes
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? No immunity or real defense here, however Cole will definitely notice that his mind and/or spirit is connected to another; to his wolf Grey Wind. He may notice they are aware of each other, a part of each other, and if he shifts around in his mind Grey Wind will notice and it will feel as if he is being watched the entire time.

Can he read your character's memories? Yes, though back in his world he saw EVERYTHING, so uh. good luck, Cole.
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? He's a god but no one has ever tried to read his mind before; he'll probably be able to notice but he'll just be like "okay what are you doing this is interesting"

no subject
Date: 2015-05-29 07:21 pm (UTC)Character Name: Po
Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes
Can he read your character's memories? Yes. He might try to close him out(how successful it is is up to you) and go "Dude, wtf, just ask me."
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes, and Po might do it right back. In fact, they might be able to do completely silent communication if they want. Angrily thinking at each other if they don't get along.
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? A form of natural immunity, but only in terms of his mind being altered. He can still be read but he'll probably notice. There is some super spoilery evidence to support this.

Date: 2015-05-30 07:16 am (UTC)Character Name: Paloma Cecilia Vasquez / the Fledgling
Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes
Can he read your character's memories? Yes (for now, until a canon update, and if it becomes a thing I'll let you know / update this comment!)
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? The stronger a vampire gets the harder it is to get inside their head, and how her canon defines strength is by blood generation-- how closely related the vampire is to Caine, the original. For now, Paloma's blood is stronger than it should be, but she's not immune to being read. C:

Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Nope, none at all. He's a regular human being.
no subject
Date: 2015-05-30 10:08 pm (UTC)Character Name: Xion
Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes
Can he read your character's memories? Yes, though... this is a bit tricky. Xion herself doesn't possess very many memories of her own. She is theoretically made from samples of the memories of another person, however she has no access to them, and her ability to absorb memories in general has been nerfed. I'm not sure if he'd have any access to that at all - canon isn't very clear on which memories she is made of, though there are possibly some things he might pick up on if you think he'd have access to them. Overall, I imagine this'd be more important if she were canon updated and did start absorbing and gaining conscious access to the memories she canonically absorbs from her castmates. I'll let you know if/when this happens
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Sure
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? It's never touched on at all in canon so I'm gonna assume no
no subject
Date: 2015-05-31 06:33 am (UTC)Can Cole read your character's feelings? Y
Can he read your character's memories? Y, he's an open book for the spirits.
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Y
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Not necessarily, but he's a shaman and can communicate with both elemental spirits and the ghostly kind. In fact, this is a lot of what he does. He meditates and talks to them and asks them for guidance/favors, leaves them gifts, etc etc. more info here and also thrall's own permissions if you'd like to have Cole in his dreams.
no subject
Date: 2015-05-31 07:37 pm (UTC)Character Name: Arno Dorian
Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes! He has a lot of feelings about wanting to right the past, of redemption, stuff like that.
Can he read your character's memories? Yes, slightly- Arno guards a lot of personal memories close to him, but the memories of his father being murdered when he was eight is something Cole could easily discover!
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? BY ALL MEANS PLEASE DO Arno is going to be so weirded out c:
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Yeeeees and no? AC canon is odd, because in order for Arno to have Eagle Vision it means he's a descendant of Those Who Came Before, a superior race that had six senses instead of five. I don't think Arno could do anything, he'd just be something different for Cole to encounter, maybe a little difficult.
If you want any ideas or anything beforehand, feel free to PM me or find me on plurk at

Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes indeedy
Can he read your character's memories? Yes; Hawke is an open book.
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes!
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Just some minor defenses against blood magic? This probably doesn't apply to Cole, though, since what he does is a lot gentler than blood magic.

Date: 2015-06-02 02:56 pm (UTC)Can Cole read your character's feelings? No, given she's a god she's also auto-warded, but she's ... hardly subtle anyway LOL
Can he read your character's memories? Mm, I'll say no broadly speaking, but if she consciously shows him something in the future then yes!
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes, make her uncomfortable if she opens up.
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Olympians have their own mental warding for the most part but with Cole I'd love to take this on a case-by-case basis! :)

Date: 2015-06-08 05:33 pm (UTC)Character Name: Balem Abrasax
Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes
Can he read your character's memories? Yes, only thing off limits for now is the fact that he killed his mother because that's kind of his Big Deal Plot Twist, but I may have it come up later.
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? He's too damn old and has a lot of memories to go through, that's about it.
no subject
Date: 2015-06-08 10:35 pm (UTC)Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yup!
Can he read your character's memories? Absolutely. He's a zombie, though, and his brain is kept working by a drug, so some of his memories are fragmented, or there's things he doesn't remember from when he was alive or from when he rose from the grave initially (these memories might just be repressed because he killed people) before he got the drug. More recent events he remembers fine, though.
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? If he wants to, sure.
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Nope.
no subject
Date: 2015-07-31 03:21 am (UTC)Character Name: Mewtwo (
Can Cole read your character's feelings? Absolutely. No need to ask.
Can he read your character's memories? Yes, but Mewtwo may react poorly if it's one of the more sensitive memories (i.e. being cloned). If you feel it may trigger an aggressive response, contact me first.
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yep. Though Mewtwo would likely know he's a telepath long before then.
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Yes! He's a psychic himself so he has defenses against unwanted invasions. However, if he trusts the individual, he may allow it. I would highly advise that Cole asks before doing so to prevent retaliation; more likely than not he'll say yes anyway, out of curiosity.

Can Cole read your character's feelings? Yes
Can he read your character's memories? Yep
Can he comment out loud on what he finds? Yes
Does your character have any immunity or defense against being read? Nope.
However! The ka'kari (The thing that talks like "~blah blah~") is kind of a whole 'nother category. It's a sentient being made up of ancient magical properties and "personality" that's bonded to Kylar and often takes the form of a black obsidian-like metal. It lends Kylar powers like judging the soul of others, invisibility, immortality (canonically only), weapons, armor, and it also communicates with him in his mind. It has its own feelings and memories that extend way beyond Kylar's (it was already called ancient 700+ years ago). Typically, the ka'kari is known for it's ability to hide, but I'm gonna go ahead and say Cole is more than welcome to pick up on its existence and interpret it as whatever you'd like. Any conversation or comments with it will be one-sided, however, since it can only speak with Kylar, but that's the biggest downside I can think of. Otherwise, have at it o7
