「 kenos | opt-in post 」

As a very powerful necromancer, John has the ability to sense the thalergy (life energy), thanergy (death energy), and souls of any living thing.

So! What does this mean?

This means that John can sense just about everything that goes on with a person physiologically down to the chemical processes. In Kenos, he's been heavily nerfed, and most of his powers are affected in a general sense by all the fun new energies present, which is a convenient handwave-y way of explaining why he doesn't have turbo knowledge about everything and everyone at all times.

The purpose of this page is a general opt-in where you can optionally share any details about your character that John might recognise and whether or not you want them referred to, etc.

This is mostly a reference for me, so be as detailed as you like because it's definitely fun for me to sprinkle things in hehe.

As a note, it is acceptable to say that John outright can't sense something too! There are several characters where We Just Don't Know, or it's otherwise more interesting to leave question marks, so feel free to mention if you want John to perceive someone as Eldritch Static or a migraine or something!

Fill out the handy dandy form below and leave a comment!

PLAYER NAME: Batty
CHARACTER NAME: Tohsaka Rin
CANON: Fate/Stay Night

WHAT CAN JOHN SENSE ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER?:
✧ Rin was born with a high aptitude for magecraft. It is said that if an average mage is able to generate 25 units of energy, then Rin can generate 500 at her baseline and could hone herself to max out at around 1000.

✧ In her world mages usually only have an affinity for one element, maybe two if they're special, but Rin has the very rare capacity for All Five Great Elements (Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Ether/Imaginary).

✧ She now has two Magical Crests which aren't (usually) noticeable unless activated
    Original Magic Crest: A series of spells 'carved' into the body granting the holder access to knowledge and magic of their predecessors. This allows them to cast spells without incantations or to elevate simple curses like gandr into something so condensed it becomes a physical bullet. It is likened to an organ that must be transplanted in its entirety, and the crest on Rin starts at her wrist and winds its way upward to her elbow in rectangular spirals that look similar to motherboard circuitry. As the body is want to reject most forms of magic, the crest causes pain when implanted and puts constant strain on the body (which Rin takes medicine to mitigate and has been for most of her life).
    Aetos Implant: After John gave Rin's shard to Aetos the experiment that followed was an expansion of her magic crest. It picks up at the elbow and stretches upward over her upper arm and shoulder. The black parts are visible like a tattoo, and the blue parts only exist as a glow when activated. This crest specifically channels faction energy — enhancing it and making her more capable despite her low tier (though she hasn't learned any extra spells). It also holds onto a percent of her Discord (received in anyway) and that percent can only be offloaded unnaturally.
ARE THERE ANY RESTRICTIONS?: No.
IS THERE ANYTHING YOU WANT HIM TO NOTICE?: He's welcome to notice the crests even when not activated because they are still a part of her physiologically.
