IN CHARACTER
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: tentative yes
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: yes but she'll retaliate
RELATIONSHIPS: yes
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: only basic defenses against this. those who initially try will find it's like trying to break into a plastic cage; her emotions are pretty readable but her specific thoughts are harder to read unless you find cracks that you can widen. if you do there's a lot of darkness and regret.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: able to alter perception and temporarily change her own appearance and physiology, though the latter leads to negative physical effects (bigger changes to her own body leave her with migraines, body aches, and nausea, especially if she sustains them for longer periods of time).
MEDICAL INFORMATION: as mentioned altering her appearance and physiology leads to illness that lasts for at least the amount of time she's had to sustain the change without shifting back. there's a tiny scar in the crook of her arm from an attempt at ODing to end her contract early (this was unsuccessful and lead to her contract being extended). appears 28, will for the next 100+ years.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: TBA

- tried to end her contract early only to have years added on, pretty pissed off about her situation
