Soul Perception Post

[aboutwhynot]

So Stein has this crazy little ability called "Soul Perception." Basically, he can look at a person's soul with it.

At the surface level (when he's not actively concentrating it) he can sense other souls around her buzzing and moving and such, and it works almost like infared vision would, where everyone's kind of just a blob. When he is actively concentrating, he's able to see detail! The color, the shape and surface traits of that person's personality is the basics of it, including if a person is a more evil sort.

Souls show up like so to him.

Besides having cute little faces and personality traits, souls also have color. The color depends on the person, obviously, and though purple and red souls are indicators of witches and kishin (or kishin eggs) respectively, it's entirely possible that humans can have those colors too, it'll just make him insta-suspicious.

That's about all for the background info on this, now onto the permissions part:

<b>Does your character have a soul?</b> [If yes, move onto the next question. If no, well this is embarrassing and I am sorry for wasting your time. I suck] <b>Can Stein use Soul Perception on your character if he feels the need to?</b> [Straightforward enough, if Stein sees your character out in public or is in close proximity to them, would he be able to sense what's up with their soul.] [NOTE FOR NON-HUMAN CHARACTERS: Human souls are very distinct from non-human souls, so if your character is a shinigami and so on, he would be able to pick up on that.] <b>What would be the most prominent traits of your character's soul?</b> [I.E. goofball, secretive, malicious and so on. Feel free to include the color, otherwise I'll just pick one for you. The size is also relevant; they're usually about the size of a softball, but if your character has a bunch of "supernatural" type abilities, it will be bigger. Sometimes much bigger (see icon)] <b>If a malignant soul, would it have a physical effect on Stein?</b> [Usually he gets unsettled when he senses an evil soul, but if they have a soul that emits a lot of insanity, that would usually make him go a little loopy at the least.] <b>Can Stein keep a trace on your character's soul once he's sensed it?</b> [This is to make sure they stay out of trouble, whether because he's concerned about them or he thinks they're trouble themselves. He can't actually keep the "trace" pinned on them at all times, though, just when he wants to feel where they are and actively concentrating.]

Does your character have a soul? Yes

Can Stein use Soul Perception on your character if he feels the need to? Sure.

What would be the most prominent traits of your character's soul? She'd be blue. She's deeply caring and a bit mischievous but also a skeptic who needs evidence to believe something - once she has that evidence she'll accept it and move on quickly though, not a lot throws her off. Jane does have her auto-revive Lifey Thing and is a bit of the way up on her echeladder, so that might be reflected in the size of her soul.

If a malignant soul, would it have a physical effect on Stein? She's a nice girl! He might be able to detect a small hint of evil from the subliminal stuff from her tiaratop? But that's about all I can think of that might show up to make him double-take and it might not even show up since it's not directly part of her nature, idk.

Can Stein keep a trace on your character's soul once he's sensed it? Sure.
