October dream event permissions

Hello! This is a Lite version of what Cole's permissions post will be should he ever permanently get his mind reading and empathy back. But since this is just for October's dream event, here's the main things you can partake in:


  • Cole reading your character's thoughts and recollections

  • Cole sensing your character's emotions

  • Your character being unable to see Cole unless he draws their attention

  • Your character forgetting/starting to forget Cole (assuming they've, y'know, met him)


Basically, the way I'll approach this is any introspection you choose to include in your tags is free game for Cole to detect (as I, the player, am unfortunately unable to read minds). This doesn't necessarily mean he'll make a show of the fact he can do so, but he is prone to latch onto things he can try to help. And occasionally ask invasive questions. And repeat what he hears out loud....


For an optional quick 3 minute crash course on how his mind reading and empathy work, here's a video:


 

While Cole can read into people's older memories, I'm mainly focusing on surface thoughts to keep things simple. But if you do want Cole to read something deeper or more specific off of your character (such as a memory/emotion/secret/general mindset/etc), either let me know here or just be sure to include details of it in your tags so Cole can read it.


That said, please respond with:


Is it okay for Cole to read your character's mind and emotions during the dream event? yes/no/other*


And any other details/conditions/questions you'd like to include! If the answer is no I will assume he is unable to read them at all, same as in the normal void.


For his invisibility and being easily forgotten, I'm leaving that entirely up to player discretion- they're passive traits so Cole won't know up front if they're in effect or not. Your character doesn't have to be affected by either, it's just an option if you'd like to play with it.


*If your character will have abilities that let them block out and/or sense Cole's abilities, you can let me know about that too. You know. If you want to.
