NAME. Cassel Sharpe
CANON. Curse Workers

OOC PREFERENCES.
CONTACT: My plurk ([plurk.com profile] porphyrogene) is always open for friendage, or PMs work too!
FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: No fourth walling; the series isn't popular enough to warrant it, so I'd rather not. Canon puncture is perfectly fine, though!
BACKTAGGING: Hell yes!
THREADJACKING: Fuck yeah!
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Sexual assault/abuse and rape are difficult subjects for me OOCly, as is disordered eating. Please PM me if you think these things are going to come up.
PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: She/her/hers are fine!

IC CHARACTERISTICS.
CANON POINT: Post-Black Heart.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Cassel is seventeen, good looking, tan-skinned, and dark-featured. He dresses well most of the time and sloppily the rest of the time; however, he keeps himself well-groomed overall. He wears gloves 24/7 so as not to accidentally turn someone into a snail.
DEMEANOR: Cassel tends to play into the mysterious, brooding young man archetype, mostly in order to get sympathy but also because he is pretty much the broodiest. He acts like he has all the swag, but he really only has a small amount of swag. He uses sarcasm as a defense, so expect to hear a lot of that, as well as some mean-spirited and possibly hypocritical commentary on your life choices!
ABILITIES: Cassel's a worker, which means he has a more-or-less-magical skill that he can use if he has hand-to-skin contact with another person - hence the gloves. Not only is he a worker, but he's a transformation worker, the rarest of them all and maybe the most dangerous. He can turn anything into anything else, with no care for where all that extra matter goes. (Don't question it, it's magic.) By extension, he can also kill anyone with a touch, simply by turning them into something inanimate. The catch to all of this is the bigger his work, the worse the blowback is, and he gets blowback of some kind every time he works. What you need to know about blowback is: he turns into a walking, talking, flopping, writhing bodyhorror for a couple of minutes. Then he's okay and has the normal number of eyes again.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Pretty much the above. Nobody be surprised if he becomes Cthulhu by accident?
CABIN INFORMATION: 7-09; a perfect replica of his dorm room at Wallingford, an expensive private school. It's economical in size but well-furnished, with two desks, two lamps, two beds, etc. There's generally a pair of comfortable gloves lying around somewhere, either leather or cotton, always black. On one side of the room, Cassel's side, the walls are blank and undecorated, and while it looks lived-in, it doesn't look like somebody with a personality lives there. The other side, where Cassel's roommate would stay, is decorated with posters of terrible B-movies and other nerd necessities. Also on this side are schoolbooks, though they've been tucked under the bed. Cassel's desk holds a hand-sized figurine of a white cat.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Trust, family, emotional and physical manipulation/abuse.

IC PERMISSIONS.
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: If he can get something out of it, he'll roll with it. Otherwise he'll just look at you like you're stupid. Go for it, nevertheless.
MENTAL: PM me first, but broadly yes!
MIMICRY: Go for it! But PM me.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Absolutely.
PSYCHOLOGICAL VIOLENCE: Do it. PM me about the triggers I mentioned above or if it will have long-term effects, but otherwise let's go nuts.
MAGIC: PM me!
DEBATE: Go for it!
CHARACTER DEATH: PM me, but probably!
