Feb. 21st, 2021 12:51 pm[CHARACTER]
Name: Ea-nasir (Caster)
Series: Fate/Golden End (Original Grail War, technically an AU of Fate/ and Fate/GO)
Race: Heroic Spirit, formerly human
Age: 3,800 even (appears in her 20s)
Description: A woman of average height and stature with a Mediterranean tan and light brown hair, a little wavy when loose but often pulled back into a ponytail. Her expressions fluctuate between bored, finding something hilarious, and used car salesman - if she's meeting somebody new, usually it's the latter. She's constantly taking in her surroundings, looking for avenues of escape (for herself and others), and judging everybody she meets... though she's excellent at not showing this obviously, so it's not likely to be noticed unless your character is similarly trained.
Magic/Soul/Evil Sensing: If your character can sense souls, they can note that Ea-nasir isn't human, but a Heroic Spirit - a dead soul that's been pulled from the cycle of life and death, a living embodiment of their legends and deeds. In there, her soul merged with human resentment towards the concept of the con, meaning she is half human resentment as well. Since she was summoned into a Holy Grail War, she was given a body of mana and her soul is a copy of the original's.
If your character can sense magic, they can note that her body is more or less made up of mana. They can also note that she gains mana whenever anybody is upset or exasperated at her, as a result of her Grievance Power skill. Any magic she actually uses comes in the form of Curses though, so whether that counts as magic is up to you.
If your character can sense evil, darkness, etc. then you can probably feel that Ea-nasir's soul is partially made up of human resentment, thousands of years of grudges against conmen building up and making up a portion of her soul. You can also probably sense that her magic are all Curses, negativity and ill-will given form.

[OOC]
Backtagging: I'm fine with tagging threads with slow activity unto eternity, but not thread necromancy, if that makes sense.
Threadhopping: Actively encouraged for less serious threads, ask permission for the serious stuff
Fourthwalling: If you want to know about Ea-nasir the historical figure then YES ABSOLUTELY THAT IS WHY FATE/ IS COOL TO PLAY FROM. Knowing about Fate/ the fictional franchise is a no.
Offensive subjects (elaborate): It's all good
[IC]
Hugging this character: why would you, but yes
Kissing this character: SERIOUSLY WHY WOULD YOU also yes
Flirting with this character: Go for it
Fighting with this character: I'd prefer to discuss first
Injuring this character: Anything like, naturally coming about through a conflict we've already discussed is fine. Anything major or coming out of nowhere let's discuss
Killing this character: Let's talk about it
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Go for it.
[POWERS PERMISSIONS]
Ea-nasir has several Skills and powers from being a Fate/ character. Some of these can border on mind-reading or affect characters, their items, or their powers. Also, in general, Ea-nasir is a con artist and she thrives with negative CR. I'll go down the list of what her powers are and their opt-out levels.
Con Artist: Not a Skill or power, just Ea-nasir is, in general, a con artist. How cool are you with being on the receiving end of used-car-salesman-esque pitches and obvious cons?
Territory Creation: Ea-nasir can create or designate special areas. A Shop has all of the items she makes appear as higher quality - can your character somehow see through it? A Warehouse just keeps goods from going bad, and a Negotiating Space is supernaturally understood to be neutral ground when you enter, but offers no compulsion to act on it.
Item Creation: Ea-nasir can make stuff out of mana, but it's all low quality. Spending time on it can make it appear higher quality - can your character somehow see through it? Note that the items she makes are real, though, even though they came from magic.
Grievance Power: Ea-nasir's signature skill. Any negativity, anger, hatred, exasperation, etc. directed at her turns into mana. This isn't really opt in or out it's just how she is, but do note that if you can sense magic, you can sense this.
True Appraisal: Ea-nasir can identify people, items, and powers, including True Names, abilities, and true nature. This isn't 100% though, and works best on targets with artistic or historical significance. Can she gleam anything off of your character, their items, or their abilities?
Merchant's Discernment: This one is simple: When a person believes Ea-nasir holds bargaining power, then she can in turn sense what it would take to make them negotiate. This isn't mind-reading but a supernatural ability, so it could tell her something the character themselves wouldn't think of. It's also blocked by methods that block scrying, but not by methods that block mind-reading. Can this affect your character?
Promise of Copper: Ea-nasir's Noble Phantasm allows her to degrade items, including magic items, and powers. For magic items and powers, they can only remain degraded while fighting Ea-nasir. For mundane items, they can remain degraded as long as Ea-nasir wants. Fighting Ea-nasir means agreeing to the temporary degradation, unless your character has something that would stop that. Do they? The more permanent stuff I'll discuss before using, but opt in or out here if you'd like.

Date: 2021-02-21 08:47 pm (UTC)Con Artist: She's free to try, though if she does actually manage to trick this highly suspicious fox he'll 100% absolutely vow revenge.
High Quality Magic: No, he's got his own powers to see through that.
True Appraisal: She can glean stuff, sure! He's a fox spirit/Chinese youkai with powers of illusion and uncorrupted spiritual energy, for starters.
Merchant's Discernment: Yes
Promise of Copper: Yes, he'd hate it

Date: 2021-02-21 09:18 pm (UTC)Yosuke Otoha
Ken Amada (AU)
Casper LeBlanc, Jr.
Caleb Widogast
Con Artist:
Ken: Yes, he's suspicious of everyone but not super good at bartering.
Otoha: Harder to do, given his background, but possible.
Casper: Possible? He's got some lie detection ability, but not real bargaining experience. It'll depend on the situation.
Caleb: Depends on the situation, but open to it.
High Quality Magic:
Ken: Yes.
Otoha: Yes but harder.
Casper: Yes but harder than Otoha.
Caleb: Yes, but he'll be angry.
True Appraisal:
Otoha: I'd... prefer his magic items be a little vague since his soul is in his amulet. His sword is a bit magical and his amulet is very magical.
Ken: I think the Evoker might come off as magic? Otherwise he doesn't have much.
Casper: He's... got a fair few magic items on his person and is also very magical himself. His raven is also magic.
Caleb: His spellbook is magic in the sense that it... has spells. The paper and ink themselves aren't magic, just high quality.
Merchant's Discernment:
Ken: Yes.
Otoha: Yes.
Casper: Yes but question mark?
Caleb: Yes and it's probably knowledge or some sort of magic-related thing. Or just a good book in general depending on the transaction.
Promise of Copper:
In general opt out for the magic items if only because it'd freak them out too much. Mundane items yeah if it's sufficiently funny enough and it's not like... a weapon they need in the next hour or something. Hard opt-out for Caleb's spellbook.

Date: 2021-02-21 10:54 pm (UTC)Con Artist: Can Ea-nasir attempt to scam your character? ... Tentative yes? Depends on the scam.
High Quality Magic: Alfredo can be, Nita not so much.
True Appraisal: Alfredo Martini is being trained in using ki (which may or may not count for this at all, admittedly); Nita Callahan is a wizard with enacture granted by the Powers That Be. Up to you if Ea-nasir can pinpoint that it's not strictly the version of wizardry/magic she knows (or if that matters).
Merchant's Discernment: Can Ea-nasir get a sense for what it takes to negotiate with your character through a magic skill? ... Erring on the side of yes for this one for both.
Promise of Copper: Do you opt in or opt out from having Ea-nasir's super skill degrade your character's stuff? Would prefer to out-out.
no subject
Date: 2021-02-22 02:23 am (UTC)Con Artist: Attempt yes, I don't know if he'd be interested
High Quality Magic: Possibly, again I don't know if he'd be interested
True Appraisal: Thanatos can summon a scythe and a sword, has death powers, can teleport/shift his location, is a god, and Death Incarnate. All of those are things that honestly, doesn't need a spell for him to reveal. He'll just straight up say so when asked.
Merchant's Discernment: Sure, though I think anyone who can rub two brain cells together can tell where Thanatos's loyalties lie and thus what could be used for negotiations.
Promise of Copper: Since it's temporary, opt-in as long as it's plotted beforehand with one exception. Mort, his Chthonic Companion, cannot be touched. Stick to the weapons please.
no subject
Date: 2021-02-27 02:35 am (UTC)Con Artist: Oh sure, go for it.
High Quality Magic: Yeah, she doesn't really have any magical ability to see through things.
True Appraisal: Sure! She's the Goddess of Spring, a fertility goddess, capable of vast feats of plant growth as well as healing, shapeshifting into a big version of herself OR one or more butterflies and other things I'd update this with when I know. She has a jeweled comb created by Hades and a pair of earrings that are a replica of Hera's diamond earrings? IDK WHAT COUNTS.
Merchant's Discernment: Sure! No guarantees they'll be anything tho.
Promise of Copper:I'd prefer her comb not be degraded, but most other things are fine!
no subject
Date: 2021-02-27 11:52 pm (UTC)Con Artist: I really, really hope that the Triforce of Wisdom protects against grifters' sales pitches. Even if they're divine sales pitches.
High Quality Magic: See above, probably not.
True Appraisal: Princess of Hyrule, Seventh Sage, the Princess with the Blood of the Goddess Hylia, Keeper of the Triforce of Wisdom... I'm sorry, The Legend of Zelda is not a series disinclined to granting its characters increasingly ridiculous amounts of titles and powers.
Merchant's Discernment: Yes
Promise of Copper: I'm ok with most of what she has on hand, but please be gentle on the ocarina. it's been through a lot.
no subject
Date: 2021-02-28 09:20 pm (UTC)V
Prisoner
Cherry
Con Artist:
V + Prisoner: Attempt being the qualifier there.
Cherry: Much easier than the other two but she wasn't born yesterday.
High Quality Magic:
V + Prisoner: Yes, probably. Not that that means they'll buy them.
Cherry: It will work at first but she will likely see through it eventually.
True Appraisal:
V: There is nothing of note.
Prisoner: The charms he wars around his SCA that are his weapons are magical in nature, with some being more magical than others.
Cherry: She's inherently magical, though she doesn't really seem to tap into it all that much. If appraised while training then she will flare and wane with varying amounts of magical energy pending how many chakra gates she has open and where she's at in her drills. She is also always aligned with either fire, wind, or earth. Most commonly she will be aligned with wind.
Merchant's Discernment:
Sure to all.
Promise of Copper:
Opt out please, for all of them.
no subject
Date: 2021-03-01 11:16 am (UTC)Con Artist: Sure, but she's heard of Ea-nasir and will probably be on her guard
High Quality Magic: Masumi's got no guard against magic, so yes. She'll still be suspicious about possible scams, though.
True Appraisal: There's nothing magic about Sera.
Merchant's Discernment: Yes? It'll be tough, though.
Promise of Copper: Yes, it'll upset her. Just don't do it to her hat though, she arrived with it and it reminds her of her brother.
no subject
Date: 2021-03-24 04:35 pm (UTC)Con Artist: She can try but it probably won't work, just because Ghost isn't all that interested in material things, relatively speaking.
High Quality Magic: Yes but see above - even if she's convincing in terms of "this is high quality," someone's gotta be buying before she can do any selling.
True Appraisal: I am responding to this post entirely for this question because I think it would be hilarious for it to come up "Morgan Yu - Authorized Reproduction." That's it that's my sense of humor, you can't possibly be surprised by this. (Anything on his perms is also fair game.)
Merchant's Discernment: Yes but I'm not sure what it would be a lot of the time.
Promise of Copper: Anything but the phone, shyster, don't mess with people's assistive devices :v
As a side note, since Ghost is brain-copied from a precocious Gen-Z, he absolutely knows about modern Ea-nasir memes.
no subject
Date: 2021-03-29 11:52 pm (UTC)Con Artist: Sure! It might or might not work depending on the scam.
High Quality Magic: Shadow will absolutely notice the magic if she sees it in operation, but if there's no magic trace afterwards, it might work.
True Appraisal: Definitely! Shadow is significant enough in both occult history (she killed an ascended being who had wiped out the dinosaur people and has done a bunch of stuff over millions of years) and art history (she has done a lot, lot, lot of art) that she'd be a total open book to this ability.
Merchant's Discernment: If Shadow has anti-scrying stuff set up for some reason, this won't work. But the vast majority of the time it'll work. Note that her price's super cheap when it comes to getting her to mess with people.
Promise of Copper: Absolutely opt-in!
no subject
Date: 2021-04-02 03:32 pm (UTC)Con Artist: Can Ea-nasir attempt to scam your character? Sure though only Romeo is likely to fall for it (and gee if she wants the best customer, please con Romeo)
High Quality Magic: Can your character be hoodwinked by magic into thinking Ea-nasir's wares are high-quality? Yep! Little One is extremely easy to hoodwink by magic. The other two are fine too
True Appraisal: Can your character, their special items, or their abilities by Appraised by a magic skill? If so, what are you okay with Ea-nasir finding out? Yep nothing is off the table
Merchant's Discernment: Can Ea-nasir get a sense for what it takes to negotiate with your character through a magic skill? Yep
Promise of Copper: Do you opt in or opt out from having Ea-nasir's super skill degrade your character's stuff? Opt in
no subject
Date: 2021-04-24 10:15 pm (UTC)Con Artist: She can try! Particularly using the below powers, but without those Phineas may or may not fall for it. I'm happy to plot something else if you'd like her to hoodwink him sometime!
High Quality Magic: Absolutely!
True Appraisal: She can absolutely appraise the Tinkerer and his inventions, sure!
Merchant's Discernment: Again, absolutely.
Promise of Copper: Mmm, I'm going to say opt in but tentatively? Let's talk about it beforehand so we can hash things out!
Just as a note, if Ea-nasir cons Tinkerer when it comes to, like, a part that he ends up using for an invention that causes a problem, he's probably going to cease to trust her in that particular regard and will no longer deal with her for invention parts once he figures out what went wrong. At least if it happens more than once. And if he finds out she's degraded his stuff he'll be displeased, of course! (This is not me saying no.)
no subject
Date: 2021-05-29 12:48 am (UTC)Con Artist: Absolutely, she's not all that hard to get one over on.
High Quality Magic: Yeah probably.
True Appraisal: Sure, although there's not much going on with Auditi supernaturally - she's a fairly mundane blueblood troll with psychic defenses appropriate to her caste and a minor ability to block out pain but no overt powers. If Ea-nasir would pick up on that sort of thing, she's also a talented but inexperienced mechanical engineer with a focus in prosthetic limbs.
Merchant's Discernment: Go for it! Auditi will be surprised that it works, if she realizes - as mentioned above, she's got pretty good psychic defenses, but that falls firmly under the "anti-mindreading" category.
Promise of Copper: She's got nothing that would interfere with this, although she's not usually one to pick fights so I'm not sure how likely it is to come up.
