CONTENT WARNINGS: aristaeus is an emotionally stunted super-soldier from a far future setting and part of a militant theocratic society that is slowly conquering what remains of civilization. this means that he's coming out of the gate with some pretty warped views of humanity in general. he is violent, obsessive and generally disdainful of anyone that doesn't form part of his society and their little psychic hivemind. he has high cognitive empathy but low emotional empathy, which means that he can recognize the emotional response people around him experience but has a limited capacity to relate to them. this can lead to him being pretty abrasive. this is an ic trait not an ooc reflection on the thread.

this being said, he is also pragmatist and tends to avoid defaulting straight to aggression unless given suitable provocation.

in general, depending on the direction the thread takes you can expect some pretty cavalier attitudes toward violence, misanthropy and bigotry and the related persecution. i will always check in/warn in advance of heading too seriously into any of these topics because we're all here to have fun and i know he can be a lot.

otherwise: he's also a psychic so i'm going to include a opt-in/opt out below to hopefully avoid any info/godmodding of characters. this will be pretty basic, so i'll reach out for clarification/further detail if necessary.


<b>1. would you like to opt-out of interacting with aristaeus?</b> <b>2. are there any areas/interactions you would like me to avoid?</b> <b>3. can he get a basic read on your character?</b> this will include things like if they're not human, if they have powers etc., he won't be able to tell much more about them unless he probes deeper. <b>4. is there anything you'd prefer he not be able to pick up? </b> do they have any barriers, psychic or otherwise? <b>5. would you be okay with him reading deeper?</b> this would require physical contact. <b>6. would he be able to use telekinesis/biokinesis on your character?</b> for biokinesis, specifically, this would involve a sensory attack - think a brief, nightmarishly intense headache - for the moment but can expand into healing/pain management with deepening cr. <b>7. further plotting</b> would you like to/be open to plotting anything involving his powers in the future?
