OOC: General request for plotting and organization

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Hey, all!

So, in an effort to keep things a little more organized for plottishness and so on, we're going to ask a quick favor of you all.

Could you please reply to each appropriate comment below, and let us know what kind of powers/abilities/etc your character possesses? This is for all characters - students/alumni, teachers and townies - and covers everything including especially good researching/support skills, magic, skill with weaponry, mutations, etc.

Anything that is a canon power or ability of your character and could be used in a plot in some way, please list below in the correct thread.

Thank you so much for indulging my OCD your participation.

(And naturally, there will be threads, so please to be waiting for them and they're up!)

Being a vamp means that Angel has super speed (move too fast to see), super strength (can break concrete walls by punching through them), super hearing (can hear clearly through doors and walls), super sense of smell (can track someone by scent, can recognize if someone's had sex in the past few days and who it was with), and excellent night vision. He can jump very high (at least a floor or two) and survive falls off of skyscrapers. All of these powers are stronger when he's in game face but canon's never specified how much. (aka "Speed of the plot")

He's room temperature, doesn't need to breathe, and has no heartbeat, all of which makes him immune to a lot of anti-theft devices, as well as any situation that would require going underwater, going into a room filled with poisonous gas, etc.

He can be hurt by a taser, but powerful bolts of electricity can go through him without doing him any damage. Because my canon MAKES NO SENSE

He's got intermittent photographic memory, which canon suggests he can use if he puts his mind to it but it's not an automatic thing.

He can take a lot of damage and survive so long as it's not cutting off his head or putting a wooden stake through his heart. He's got speeded up healing which again works at the speed of the plot.

His mind can't be read via telepathy or similar means, though Lorne could read his aura and make some predictions about his future or be aware of things he'd done in the recent past.
