Powers
RS is a fantasy site and all wolves are welcome to have powers, even if they are just a normal wolf (not a sub-species or fae), so here is the information on what powers are available for your characters to use. Now this all is has to do with what alliance your wolf holds as well as some personal gifts that they were born with. Each wolf can either have two physical powers, or one mental and one physical. Your characters can either be psychic in some way or mind blind and you must specific this in their bios.
Psychics are possible opened for mind control. Each psychic has the ability to create barriers in their minds as deterrents. However, the older the psychic, the stronger the powers are. Only those who are mind blind, which means no psychic connection at all, are free from the risks of having their minds and thoughts invaded. The only acceptation to this is when a shadow wolf attempts to pull the very soul into their mind in order to create a new follower and only then.
Mind-blinds cannot hold any sort of psychic ability. So they are not in tuned to the spirit world or able to read the thoughts of others or have their thoughts be read at all. However, they can make up for their mental blocking with another physical power.
Physical powers: these powers are granted either by birth or by your alliance to your pack. Each pack has their own abilities they can harness.
Shadow wolves:
Shadow manipulation:
This is where the shadows around each wolf acts as a living thing. It can tear at the user’s physical appearance and make them become a milky shadow. They are also used to restraint others and pull the souls from other wolves bodies and into the shadow wolves mind. Each follower has this ability.
Hell wolves:
Shape shifting:
Each hell wolf has the ability to shift their shape in some way or another. Its only one other shape and each hell wolf has a different shape or creature they can shift to.
Heaven wolves:
Death reincarnation:
Each heaven wolf has the ability to bring the soul of the dead back to its body as long its within 15 minutes of the wolfs death.
Spirit wolves:
Spirit acknowledgment:
All spirit wolves have the ability to see all lingering spirits and communicate with them.
Psychic powers:
Apports:
Completely solid objects can materialize out of thin air through a physical medium. Often ghosts will make coins, flowers, keys or stones appear. So long as the user concentrates, they can do this about 3 times before it starts to affect them physically.
Aura Reading:
This is the ability for a psychic to see in and around a subjects Aura. We all have an electromagnetic energy field around us. Some see this energy field as colors some psychics will feel the energy.
Channeling:
Is when a separate intelligence enters the mind and or body of the psychic and then uses that body/mind to communicate messages directly to the audience. It uses the users physical strength and can tire them out. They can only channel once in a day before the effects harm their body and they can be subjected to losing their soul to the channeling spirit.
Very slight mind control: This uses a lot of energy and can physically and mentally exhaust them. They can “influence” another by speaking into that wolfs self conscious. Almost immediately the wolf will do as instructed. But mental probing for information over exerts the user and they will always tend to collapse. So be aware that this mental power is extremely draining.
Clairvoyant:
Is the ability for a psychic to see what normally can’t be seen, or to see the future or to see the spirits of people who have passed over. This ability can be slightly freaky and tends to spook the user when it occurs. It occurs randomly and the user has no control over this ability.
Demonomancy:
The summoning of demons to answer questions. This leave the user vulnerable for an attack. It’s a dangerous ability and can cost the user their life if they do not take the proper measure to summon correctly.
Empath:
A psychic empath (sometimes called a Sensitive) takes on other people's feelings of pain or pleasure, actually feeling the emotions of others. It is extremely uncomfortable for the user and they have no true control over it. They may be able to dull the sensation but never truly ignore it.
Medium:
A psychic who connects with and acts as a communication conduit for spirits in the after life and/or guiding entities such as angels. They often see the spirits on earth, and can direct them to their destination. It is uncontrolled by the user.
Morphing:
This is the ability to morph their shape to match other realms around them. These wolves are the only other wolves that can access the realm of Nefendus without any assistance from a follower. They have control over this ability and it doesn’t take much out of them.
Necromancy:
Communing with spirits of the dead. You can speak to them and hear them but not see any of the lingering spirits unless they wish you to see them.
Psychometry:
Psychic sense of touch. A Psychometrist will obtain intuitive impressions and information by holding or otherwise connecting with an object or person. This will give you an accurate reading of who the person truly is no matter how hard they wish you to see otherwise.
Telekinesis:
The ability to move objects with your mind. You can only move small objects and with age and practice you may be able to move medium objects.
Telepathy:
Being able to hear the inner thoughts of all those around you. Its not controlled and goes no deeper than surface thoughts. It cannot be controlled and tends to be extremely mentally draining. With practice you can learn to ignore all the mental signatures running around in the air but never fully losing the thoughts. Though Min blind wolves are the only silent wolves you can be around. They are the only wolves whose mental thoughts are private from telepathy.
Tuner: The ability to temporarily increase the power of any of their senses. However, to do this, they must spend some time with a lessor amount of power, say poor eyesight, to save extra ability for later.
Mystification: The ability to hide their powers and the powers of those around them from those with Detection
Physical powers info:
These powers are granted either by birth or by your alliance to your pack. Each pack has their own abilities they can harness.
Physical powers:
Apparition:
Holding a spirit like form.
Your appearance is never truly solid.
Plant communication:
You can communicate with all the plant life and ask them to assist you in times of need. The user has no control on what the plants actually do.
Mimicking:
The ability to sponge another’s gifts and use them to your own advantage.
Duplication:
The ability to make shadow copies of one’s self. They are simply used to confuse and frighten others but cannot actually harm anyone else.
Pheromone manipulation:
The ability to create pheromones in order to possibly seduce or sedate another. It’s not always affective. Depends on how sensitive the other is to smell.
Physical distortion: this power allows the user to alter certain parts of their body. The length of their fur and color, their eye color, the length of their ears, hiding their wings if they have them, and much more. However, the user can only alter one thing at a time. If they attempt to alter more things or their whole appearance they can become extremely drained and vulnerable. Only with time and dedication can these powers progress and become stronger. But it took years. The hardest thing to maintain is the change of eye color. It wears the user down greatly and they can only maintain the look for a few hours.
This is all I can think up for now. If you want a different physical power, you may suggested it in your application and I will see if its approvable. Also, suggestions are welcomed.
