Character name: Jules Grumley Fandom: Original (Monsters!verse) Species: hybrid (monster & human blood) Character powers: Jules is a hybrid, meaning that she's part human and part monster. The more general abilities that come with her hybrid heritage are: • enhanced strength & endurance • accelerated healing • enhanced speed & reflexes • resilience against exhaustion and sickness Their skin is warmer to the touch than that of a human. Additionally, most monsters and some hybrids have particular abilities. Jules' is contact-based emotional manipulation and empathy, to a degree where she can try to judge if a person is 'good' or 'bad' - which isn't always easy. She can't read specific thoughts, but she can definitely pick up their emotions loud and clear, and dark, dangerous things within them, be it bad things they've done in the past, motivations or a squiggly demon. This ability allows her to read and warp emotions as she sees fit, but she needs physical contact - not necessarily flesh-on-flesh - to be able to read or manipulate anything. Monster blood is a pretty messed up thing, and while having it does grant powers there are also significant downsides. • need to consume human flesh • need for violence • risk of losing yourself to the monster It's not simply the need for flesh, but the violence of the act to quell the monster part of them. If a hybrid tries to deny their monster part, then they get very sick and weak, sometimes hallucinate - they may even go berserk and temporarily lose control of themselves, causing more damage than would have occurred otherwise. Jules need is massively watered down from the monsters and, indeed, most hybrids; monsters eat people all the time, and more concentrated hybrids may need to eat people once a month, Jules 'only' needs to have them three or four times a year. Pᴏᴡᴇʀ-Rᴇʟᴀᴛᴇᴅ Pᴇʀᴍɪssɪᴏɴs Can she use empathy on your character? (This requires contact, and allows her to feel what they feel and discover what kind of person they are. She wouldn't know specific thoughts, but she can definitely pick up their emotions loud and clear and dark, dangerous things within them, be it bad things they've done in the past, motivations or a squiggly demon. ) If yes, what would she feel? Can she use emotional-manipulation on your character? (She uses this to tip fights to her advantage, overwhelming her opponent with emotions or twisting what they feel to turn it against them.) If yes, are there any limits or particular emotions you think would be interesting? Can she attack with an intent to kill/consume or successfully kill/consume your character? (This would only happen every few months, unless she was attacked and endangered in such as way that she went temporarily berserk or we devised some other reason. If you are interested, there would be no need to log this, it's gory and not everyones cup of tea, even if the character stuff leading up to and following might be fun. Conversely, I'd be happy to log it if you wanted! Near-misses are also okay.) Are there any limits you'd like to put on this? <b>Can she use empathy on your character?</b> (This requires contact, and allows her to feel what they feel and discover what kind of person they are.

oh man oh man i would love to do all of these things

esp the talking about powers part, i love doing threads like that. if she ever asked him about his eyes he'd probably just tell her what he is, he really isn't secretive about it! and he'd love to hear about what's up with her because people-as-monsters is something he's got experience with.

and the rest of it, yes.
