If there were a land of blindfolded people

So the thing about Arou (or, well, one of the things) is that he's a massively powerful psychic. Whenever he comes into physical contact with other people or objects, he "sees" part of their past.

What he sees, and how much, is a little more dependent on this chapter's plot uncertain. If an object is connected to a very emotional event, or a person has such an event on their mind, he's likely to "see" that, regardless of the time that has passed since that event occurred. If he has some sort of personal connection to something, he'll "see" things relating to that (a house might have been home to other people since, but if his mother lived there he'll "see" her). He's also able to "look" for specifics (i.e. "did this person pass by here?"), but it takes concentration and can drain him. Most of the time, though, he'll probably just end up "seeing" some random little event from the past few days as he bumps into you. These kinds of things are basically white noise to him at this point- he may "see" what your character had for breakfast, but he probably won't remember what it was if you ask him an hour later. It's the emotional stuff he pays attention to. Even then, Arou will try to keep the information to himself unless he has a compelling reason to bring it up (i.e. he wants you to remember something that will inspire you to be less evil, or he is really pissed at you).

It's also worth noting that what Arou "sees" is what actually happened, which can be pretty different from how the people involved remember things.

None of this, of course, will come into play unless your characters are involved in logs with Arou and have given me permission! So here is a handy form:


Character Name/Journal:
Can Arou "see" their past?:
If so, is there anything he is particularly likely to "see"?:
Are there things you would like him to be unable to "see"?:
Anything else:
