CHARACTER NAME: Soubi Agatsuma
CHARACTER SERIES: Loveless
MUN CONTACT: thisgirlreads @plurk, alhazaradu @AIM. PMs work too.


[OOC]

Backtagging: Yes!
Threadhopping: Yes, but a heads up would be nice.
Fourthwalling: Would rather not, but am up for discussion.
Offensive subjects (elaborate): I have a social phobia, so if I suddenly stop replying, apologies in advance. It probably won't have been triggered by you, and I'll usually be back in a few hours/the next day.

[IC]

Hugging this character: Yes! You will get a very awkward Soubi on your hands who may or may not hug back.
Kissing this character: Yes, but expect a rejection.
Flirting with this character: Yes, but he'll either ignore it or get nasty about it, depending on how much he likes you.
Fighting with this character: Yes! Be prepared for minor reality-warping and a ruthless determination to beat you. Also apologies if he decides you're annoying enough to teleport. Please let me know if you intend to mute him, as this can fuck with his powers.
Injuring this character (include limits and severity): Yes. Poke beforehand, please, and would rather people stayed away from crippling his hands.
Killing this character: Yes, but poke first.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Yes. You'll encounter a very broken psyche. Pride in own abilities, mixed with a trickle of guilt, major self worth issues, and a lot of unpleasant memories. There are two three links/bonds to other people: Seimei and Ritsuka and Lily.
~Seimei's will feel like rope that cuts off abruptly, obviously broken but still there to be grabbed fading slowly, threads fading.
~Ritsuka's will feel like the smallest, finest chain, but made of adamantite, a handful of strands woven together.
~Lily's is obvious; most of the time she'll be with him, and he'll be pinging it occasionally with warm feelings. A bond of protector to protected, full of love.
Poke me if you want specifics!

Warnings: Soubi has some very unpleasant memories in his past (child rape, child abuse, and severe emotional abuse), so if you'd rather these not show up in his tags, poke me and we can work something out.


+ Soubi's not telepathic, except in one very specific, minor way, and he has to consciously use the power. He has the ability to 'see' links between people if they're bonded in some fashion. What this means is: he won't be able to see anything like who people are in love with/who their friends are, but if someone has a link to another person mentally/empathically/magically, he'll pick up on it (e.g. Chrome and Mukuro). He'll also in some way be able to interpret the strength of the link/the type of bond by how he 'sees' it. It's very representative and liable to misinterpretation. (e.g. A bond might show up like piano wire, thin but strong, or it could show as a thick chain, heavily tying two people together).
+ He doesn't usually kill in a fight, though he's capable of it. But there is the risk that he'll decide to teleport you to get you out of the way - and that means teleporter pinball. If that's a problem, drop me a note, though I'll ask before wantonly throwing your character at the mercies of the House.
+ His powers rely a bit on reality warping/using Words to create a focus for 'spells' which cause varying effects depending on his intent. If you can interpret what he's saying/figure out the meaning behind his words, it's possible to block or twist his spell with magic - and there's always the option of rendering him speechless somehow. He's used to thinking very quickly on his feet, and can be something of an unstoppable machine if he decides you need taking down. He's also capable of causing mental anguish/altering mental states in his opponent with a bit of setup. These effects can be much more subversive and harder to block unless you know what you're doing.
+ Soubi's bond sight lets him see a bond automatically when it's in use; otherwise he has to Look for them purposely. The shape/material/look they have is an instinctual interpretation of what they do/how strong they are, and he won't always understand the full meaning. For example, Chrome's bond to Gokudera is welded because of the way the Phantasms forced it, and made of woven straw rope because the personal link isn't that strong. As another example, Mukuro's bond to Bianchi is 'dead' because it's a one-way bond currently not in use, and made of piano wire because he's a sneaky Mist bastard.
