permissions; the power of the king

[chessking]

"Accept this contract and you accept its conditions, while living in the world of humans, you will live unlike any other. A different providence, a different time, a different life. The power of the king will condemn you to a life of solitude. Are you prepared for this?"

Lelouch's Geass gives him "The Power of Absolute Obedience", allowing him to plant commands within a person's mind upon eye contact in a manner comparable to hypnosis. The victim's memories for the duration of command issue and execution are sealed and cannot be recalled. As long as an individual has direct eye contact with Lelouch within his line of sight (approximately 272 metres), Lelouch can issue any number of verbal commands to a person so long as eye contact is maintained. The victim will not perform any action disallowed by their physical or mental capabilities, though they will try to carry out the command to the best of their ability. They may also resist a commanded action to some degree if it is utterly repugnant and morally incomprehensible to them. Lelouch's Geass powers can only be used once on a victim unless nullified by a Geass canceller.

Of course, I won't be using Lelouch's Geass powers on characters unless I have permission from players! And if plot calls for it. If you're interested in having Lelouch use Geass on your characters, please let me know via commenting to this opt-in post.

<b>1. Would you like for Lelouch to use Geass on your character?</b> <b>2. Anything you'd like to plot concerning the use of Geass?</b> <b>3. Any hard limits I should stay away from?</b> Canonically, Lelouch has used Geass to do a number of terrible things, including commanding soldiers to commit suicide en masse as well as accidentally ordering a massacre. If these are things that you aren't comfortable with, please let me know and I can have him stick to more benign commands!

If you would like to discuss the details of how Geass would be used and how it would affect your character, please feel free to comment here or get in touch with me via private plurk at ribcageblooms or via PMs.
