In Which the Supernatural is Ill-Defined

Alexia is a Preternatural! As mentioned, this means she a) has no soul and b) negates supernatural powers. In her canon, this specifically pertains to those who once has "excess soul" and then gave it up in exchange for . . . uh. Undeath, though that's a very rude way of putting it in her world.

She is explicitly stated to be able to do the following:

Vampires - loss of fangs, loss of supernatural strength, become "mortal" again and can be permanently killed

Werewolves - can't shapeshift, loss of supernatural strength/senses/etc, become "mortal" again and can be permanently killed

Ghosts - since ghosts are nothing but "soul," she exorcises them. forever.

I would like all of this to continue in camp, though of course I'll be in contact with anyone I play things out with. (And obviously nothing is permanent in camp) As far as loss of powers goes: Note that you will only be affected for as long as Alexia is touching you directly!



In addition to this, I'd love to play with anything supernatural that isn't a part of her canon! Zombies are a given, and if you'd like your dead-in-canon character to react similarly, that could be fun too. Arguably magic-users/psychics/etc could fall under the umbrella of using their "excess soul" while alive. (Work with me here.) So maybe she could stop someone from using their powers? I will not godmode anyone into this, but if you're interested please drop me a comment.

Characters who were never human would probably not be affected at all, but IF YOU WANT IT TO HAPPEN WE CAN MAKE IT SO.




If you'd like to help me by telling me what's special about your characters, and what you'd want to do about it, that would be awesome.

I have no idea if it counts as supernatural, canon is super vague about how it all works, but Hanna uses runes (usually drawn with permanent marker on his hands/arms/paper/etc) to do magic! There's also something funny going on with him in general (he might have magic guts or something who knows)--here are his stats&permissions! I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS in terms of Alexia Things but if it's something she'd be able to sense or be able to stop or whatever you want, I am a-okay with it!

Accelerator - human, most powerful psychic in his canon. Also an artificial "science angel." Read his stats/permissions for details~. Because it is relevant: there is a guy in Index canon who can negate supernatural powers using his right hand. This right hand works on Accelerator's ridiculous godemodey abilities, so, you have my permission to temporarily negate them when needed. Just drop a line.

Squid Girl - squid that just happens to look mostly like a human. N/A.

I thiiiink there is only one of mine who ought to be affected, a-and uh. Well!

Mayumi is possessed by the kuchisake-onna. She is not aware of this fact! The spirit does not have any real dominance, consciously, though if Mayumi blacks out or dies then the woman takes over. I am really not sure how anything would work here 8|a

Dunno what the reaction would be to this, but Jennifer is a cannibalistic demon succubus type thing who eats boys and their souls--she used to be human, though, and only became a demon due to being the target of a virgin sacrifice gone wrong.

She has amped-up speed/strength, and super healing powers, as well as being able to hover.

I'll mention this in the comment I'm about to make, but Jack is ... basically a soul. He's been given a physical body in camp (a few times), but it is distinctly not his own and can be pretty easily destroyed. He will definitely ping as "dead" and "ghost" despite having a physical body.

[personal profile] vampere 2012-07-30 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Tesla here is a vampire, but canon makes it very explicit that this means that he's another species and not anything that could actually be considered undead. He's also technically half-human, if that would affect anything. (His canon is... weird, to say the least.)

Kuja is a Genome, and as such isn't human. However, one of the themes in his canon is the idea of souls, so there might be something there to be played with if you want?
vampere: (Half-vampire!)

[personal profile] vampere 2012-07-30 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
That's the thing. He wasn't exactly born a vampire. He did have vampiric ancestry from birth, but he got turned into a vampire because of science. Either way, he's not usually in his vamp-mode, so it's possible that he just might not be able to tap into that side of his ancestry when she's around.

Awesome. :D If you want a basic rundown on how things in Kuja's canon go let me know.

Raidou is a devil summoner. He more or less uses his own life energy (actually the "magnetite" in his body, but lol Megaten science) to keep them present. I don't know Alexia's canon, but in Raidou's, you need to either possess some spiritual sentitivity or be of supernatural origin yourself to even perceive Raidou's demons. He usually has one or two summoned at any given time - the others are confined in the tubes Raidou constantly carries with him - and Gdon will almost always be one of them. You should probably not try to touch her, as she is perpetually on fire. XD

Most of Raidou's demons are technically gods and/or other mythological figures (Dante is a special case, as he formed a pact with Raidou in camp, so you'd have to check with his player), so I'm wondering if it would be easier to have Alexia be able to affect Raidou directly, e.g. by "unsummoning" his demons.

[personal profile] nooohandouts 2012-07-30 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
This might apply to Raine? She's a half-elf white mage. In her canon it means she's using a type of life energy (mana) for her spells.

Ankh: ... Haha. Oh boy. UH... THE SOUL THING MIGHT BE COMPLICATED? He was created from alchemy and is an embodiment of human desire. This covers most of the stuff about his abilities and what he is. His three core medals contain the characteristics of hawks, peacocks, and condors. Canon also compares core medals to how a stick is needed for a popsicle to stay together. The whole thing about being a Greeed is feeling like you have a void within you that might never be filled up. Just give me a heads up if something's about to happen. o/

Mikoto is from the same canon as Accelerator up there and is a psychic like him, so everything but the whole crazy angel stuff applies, as does the whole negating thing! If you need details on her ability I've got a stats/permissions thing in her journal here.

Maka's Soul Perception is not very well defined, but I'm assuming it's supernatural in some way, but you're also free to negate that should it come up.

Tiffany is a Discworld witch. Human though. But her soul/spirit/consciousness goes walking out of her body sometimes and can ride animals for a while. Her full stats are in her journal.

Cindy is a fairytale princess/alien from another dimension if we're getting into the technical part. But she can't do magic herself despite the immortality and extra abilities.

Now I'm curious about whether my supervillain would be affected. Ivy was entirely human and turned into a plant-based superpowered creature when her mentor's experiment went horribly wrong. She has some fun plant powers.

Also, Alexia's reaction to her costume would be hilarious.

I SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS YESTERDAY.

Asbel is a Tales protagonist and has a ridiculous excess of soul it's not even funny. He has his own, that of another being (that is essentially godmode) and ... the planet Fodra's in there. I defer to my cast as to whether Alexia can turn off Asbel's ability to use magic (as manipulation of eleth seems to be THAT THING EVERYONE CAN DO with varying degrees of success) but she can by all means turn off the other stuff going on. Asbel may not even notice.

Hope has magical powers because a bunch of godlike beings badtouched his soul. She can turn that off and Hope will actually be rather intrigued about it all.

Julian is technically not human in the strictest sense and his mutation is purely genetic rather than spiritual. I am pretty confident he has a soul, but I don't think that Marvel mutants fall under the categories you outline.

Peter got his powers through movie science and so probably don't turn off due to preternatural shenanigans. He is Spider-Man? Do I need to explain what Spider-Man is? I REALLY DOUBT THIS.

Ronan ...probably does. Ronan has magical powers because he promised the Powers that Be in his universe that he would use said powers to keep the universe running longer, in essence. He recognises that Alexia has no soul because he's seen it before and finds it rather unsettling. That said, her turning off his powers has hilarious implications for camp so if we do it we'll have to do it carefully.

Zachary isn't human and never was. lol homo magi.

USE YOUR SUPERNATURAL SHIT ON ALL OF MINE!!

Nico Robin would lose her bloomy power, Niche would lose her... hair thingy, and Troy would lose the ability to dream the dreams of air conditioners.

[personal profile] mycondolences 2012-07-31 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay. So.

Schuldig is a telepath, and would be both intrigued and greatly disturbed by losing his powers.

Chitose... doesn't really apply, but I'd figure his weather sense would go away?

Eclipse. Is... uh. A demon, so. I figure he won't be affected?

Narushige N/A

Ash would lose his hypnotic powers?

Earth . . . UH. He's not ... human anyway.

Kakei . . . lol he wouldn't be happy.

Riddle ...okay so Riddle is. Not a ghost, but a dead once-human now a Death God? I'm unsure how it'd work out but LET'S PLAY.

Rosiel good thing he's never been human and won't be affected.

Shusei would... lose his Eye of God? Or something.
