OOC PREFERENCES:
•CONTACT METHOD: plurk
•THREAD-JACKING: Go for it.
•FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: Ask first because he has canonmates, but probably
•BACKTAGGING: Yup
•AVOIDED TOPICS: Nothing in particular
•PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: She/her
IC CHARACTERISTICS:
•CURRENT CANON POINT: His "death" toward the end of season 2
•PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Ben is a little short of average and tends to slouch and skulk, with a fashion sense based pretty much entirely on shapeless jackets with big hoods, making it hard to make out a lot about him. They always have zipped fronts, though. Even when his powers aren't active, he's followed by a hint of ozone and sea water. When they are, tentacles pop out of him from swirling voids in his flesh. He's oddly clumsy and tends to walk into things when he's just wandering around (not used to being alive), but in actual combat or just sparring he's precise and effective. Just a matter of having the right headspace.
•DEMEANOR: Ben is aggressively straightforward and hard to rattle if engaged, but long habits of hovering at the sidelines are hard to break. He tends to stay back and observe and often forgets that participating is an option. He's a bit on the rude side at the best of times, but also surprisingly candid on emotional subjects. Appropriate is a concept that gets lost when you're a ghost.
•ABILITIES: Summons tentacles from alternate dimensions.
•MEDICAL INFORMATION: When his powers aren't active he's a very fit young adult human with a few weird scars. When they are, the tentacles aren't exactly part of him, and the points where they emerge are more of a swirling, inky not-space than skin.
•CABIN INFORMATION: The skeleton of the room belongs to a spooky old house, dark wood and white plaster, odd shapes to the walls and ceilings. The furniture is spartan, but a few attempts have been made to personalize and decorate. A battered stuffed bear on the bed, a few tattered and more or less random movie posters tacked haphazardly on the walls. The bedspread has trains on it and looks like it was bought for a small child and was never replaced.
•OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: He's used to gallows humor, just don't insult the family unless you are the family.
IC PERMISSIONS:
•MENTAL: He'll be disappointed but not surprised. It's his favorite sister's super power.
•MIMICRY: Tentacles might be hard, but sure
•VIOLENCE: Only if they're good with super powers and combat training, but yes, and Ben is a much more reluctant fighter than his skill level and general combativeness would suggest.
•MAGIC: Sigh. Sure.
•DEBATE: It will go poorly, but sure.
•OTHER / NOTES: He will be unpredictably weird about normal contact and social interactions. Being dead is a pain.
