prelestNina is a Heartrender, which means she has a gnarly set of powers! She's able to do the following ethically dubious things:
Affect others emotionally. Nina can spike or lower heartrates to amp up or lower anxiety, and she can manipulate brain chemistry to steer people's emotions in a certain direction. Note that this is a temporary state, lasting no more than a minute, and hormone manipulation will require direct physical contact.
Detect physical manifestations of emotions. She can do things like intuit when someone might be lying based on their heartrate or tell when someone is angry from their blood pressure.
Affect others physically. Nina can also affect others' biology by doing things like damaging internal organs, disabling muscles, and even stopping hearts. Gross! But she can also ease pain and discomfort and do some limited healing.
Tailor appearances. She can bring about limited changes to others' appearances through Tailoring. This is generally limited to subtle changes (tweaks to natural features). It takes a while and will eventually go back to how it originally looked.
What I'd like from you is to know the following:

no subject
Date: 2023-05-04 07:31 pm (UTC)Character name: Eli Ever
Are you comfy with Nina using her powers where you can read?: Absolutely
Can Nina use her power to affect your character(s) emotionally?: I think we should talk about it if it comes up because Eli doesn't have normal person emotions! He also was completely controlled by someone at home and forced to do whatever she wanted (he was aware it was happening) so I think he would recognise what was going on. Whether that gives him the ability to actually resist, welllllll we'll see?
Can Nina use her power to tell things about your character(s)'s emotional state? Probably yes; again, he doesn't really feel normal human emotions bc he's a psychopath but that could be really interesting for her to learn? I'm just a little wary of it bc I don't want everyone to know that about him right off ykwim
Can Nina use her power to affect your character(s) physically (e.g., easing pain, nausea, etc.)?: Yes
On the off-chance your character get into a scuffle with Nina, can she use her powers offensively on your character?: Oh absolutely.
If your character sees Nina's powers, will they freak out because it looks like blood magic?: No, HOWEVER, he is a serial killer who thinks that powers are Unnatural (despite having them himself, it is a Whole Thing) so he will probably secretly be like "wow maybe I should kill this woman." Whether he actually tries or not is another question, but it will definitely give him an unfavourable opinion of her at first, I'm so sorry about him he's completely awful
