[OOC Permissions]
Backtagging: Yes, of course. I work very long shifts and tend to be too wiped out to tag on work days. On the flip-side, I work part-time, so I have plenty of 'days off' to tag.
Threadhopping: If it's IC, by all means, go ahead!
Fourthwalling: I honestly don't think any characters will ICly know her canon, so if one would, talk with me first?
OOCly offensive subjects: There's nothing that I know I can't handle at all, but I'll edit if anything comes up.

[IC Permissions]
(In general: Pod is a young teen, so the preference is to keep things PG-13ish)

Hugging: If it's someone she knows and is friendly with, Pod will happily accept a friendly or familial hug. Her wolverine, Kiga, however, is slightly paranoid and might get a little agitated. For strangers, Pod will not be so open and Kiga will actively get between her and someone coming too close unexpectedly.
Kissing: Familial, chaste kisses from those she's very comfortable with are fine, though Kiga will be grumbly. Anything else, and expect to deal with an angry/insulted girl, and a snappy, overprotective wolverine.
Flirting: Pod is at that stage where romance really hasn't entered her worldview, so she'll be mostly oblivious. If she realizes, she'll get flustered, and then Kiga will take it upon himself to be the world's best cockblock.
Fighting: Pod is a healer, not a fighter, but she will defend herself and those she considers in her care very fiercely when threatened. She also has a very large (50 lbs plus) wolverine who will defend her and is willing and able to kill humans to protect her.
Injuries: I'm perfectly fine with moderate injuries! Be prepared for a very angry wolverine attack on anyone who actively threatens or hurts Pod though.
Killing: Only with express permission and extensive OOC discussion first. This actually goes double for Kiga.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Mostly N/A for Syn (except perhaps Investigator Mind Reading), but! She has no mental blocks so it's as long as there's OOC communication first! She's very bright, and has an active mind. Thoughts of Kiga are always close to the surface, and go deep enough, and the telepath will brush up against their bond. Kiga, on the other hand, is not sentient, but he's so much more self-aware and intense mentally than an animal should be. Pod is his, and he's devoted and loyal and loves her so fiercely and purely that that love and bond blazes like a light to a canon sort-of telepath (it's more someone capable of speaking mind to mind but not exactly reading thoughts that aren't sent, as it were, than a mind-reader).

Reverse Permissions:

Together Pod and Kiga have a lot of abilities, Fully described here, so asking if she can do things to your character:

*Heal your character?: Pod can heal any "beast." The definition of "beast" in her canon is...pretty broad. Pretty much to the point of "anything but actual humans" is counted under this umbrella broad. Dragons count! Shapeshifters too, as long as their shift is a full shift to a "beast", and they are in that other form. Humans are the only completely definite no, and while her canon doesn't really have any humanoid sentients (Kir or merlings...might count. maybe) presumably any very human-like/close to human species would also be a no, if a less definite one. In the 'probably too close' category would be any 'half-humans' or Tolkien elves probably, and so would any 'human but changed/turned into a humanoid monster' like a vampire, but it's a vague classification! Sentience has nothing at all to do with "beast" or not, so for any non-human characters, I will defer to player opinion. Does your character('s species) fall under "far enough from human" and if yes, does Pod have permission to heal them?

*put "the Sleep" on your character?: Likewise, Pod can spell creatures she's healing into a sleep, which is essentially magical anesthesia. There are different levels, ranging from a very calm, drowsy state with dampened pain, to a deep, deep sleep where the character feels no pain, and stays down for a time. The spell ends after some time passes, or after Pod brings the character out. Again the "beast" caveat counts, but if Pod is willing to hurt herself in the backlash, she can put the Sleep on humans too. So can Pod use this on your characters?

*use "the voice" on your character?: "The voice" is part tone and cadence, and part magic. It soothes fear, aggression, anger, etc. It works strongest on animals, and a sentient patient could easily shake it off, but it also works on humans! It's said that "the voice" works best on small children. So, permission for "the voice"?

*have a supernatural rapport with your character and/or your character's animal companions?: all Beast Healers are supernaturally good with animals, and Pod is extremely powerful in this respect. Animals, even vicious, ornery ones, take to Pod almost instantly, and tend to fondly dote on her. Pain and fear, etc, can override this, and of course a sentient character could simply ignore it. Of course, for game purposes, this can be ignored or explained away. So would this ability effect your character (if they count as a "beast") and/or their animal companions?

*Lastly, can Kiga sense things about your character?: One, Kiga is a good judge of character, and reacts positively to good people. Two, on the flipside, Kiga is extremely sensitive to dark magic (especially blood magic), and reacts very badly to it. He is also sensitive to malice and murderous intent, but less so. Lastly, he's very protective of Pod, and in most cases will get between Pod and someone who is the least bit upset/angry, unless he knows the other person well. So, permission for Kiga to sense things? And if so, what?

I'm iffy on whether Lyall counts as a "beast", given he is also technically undead while also having the wolf form, but IF SO, permission for all things except Voice.

Also I would find it hilariously amusing if Pod's affection for scary predator beasts included Riddick's "pet" demon, so permission for all things there, unless you'd rather it fall under "dark magic"-- it does live off of blood.

Monkey, Neeshka's gryphon, definitely counts as a "beast", so all those you have permission for, for him. Rather keep Voice off Neeshka herself, though.

And you have blanket permission to sense things about all mine. I'll try to make it clear in tags what those things should be.

He doesn't need the healing as much as some, anyway :B He's got regen. But he's definitely not malicious. Eh, let's say it works some at least, he's not ENTIRELY undead like in canon :)

The demon is... I'd call it chaotic selfish? It's not out to actively destroy things, just to sate its own hunger and keep itself safe, with no real moral code beyond that. It kinda-sorta likes Riddick, and enjoys helping HIM, but again mostly out of selfishness since Riddick is its host. It... really doesn't have much of a brain >.>

So I'm thinking Hajime in his Joker form might actually flag as a "beast," and she's good to go for healing, the sleep, and the voice. She also probably doesn't even need the supernatural rapport there, because he's going to dote on her anyway after Lightning Age. She's got a free pass for Ryo, Hajime's spirit animal, too. With Hajime, Kiga might pick up on his Undead instincts, which are pretty murderous, but which are also things that Hajime keeps in check and doesn't want to let loose.

Now, Zed is basically a personification of darkness and is still probably too humanlike to be considered a beast, so he's out. He is also far too ornery for "the voice" to do much good with him. I also can't see Kiga getting on well at all with him; he's free to react poorly to Zed, but know that Zed will fight back. (Mr. Sparkles, Zed's spirit animal, on the other hand, counts as a beast and you're good to go with the supernatural rapport and everything else there.)

Jules, I'm going to go out and say isn't a beast, if only because there are other changelings that are specifically labeled as such, and he's not one of them. He's magical, so feel free to sense that sort of thing for him. But hey, go ahead and try to use the voice on him, he's good at getting wound up and panicky and shouty.
