[akudamax] Character Info, Permissions, Powers, and Opt-In/Opt-Outs
CANGRANDE "JULIET" VICENZA
Age: 31 (standard Earth years)
Height: 180cm/5'11"
Hair color: Red
Eye color: Gold
PB: Olivia from Vampire Library by Lee Sun-young
Voice reference: Nojima Kenji
Cangrande believes himself to be the reincarnation of Juliet Capulet from Romeo & Juliet, and will be dressed in women's clothing and makeup more often than not in relation to this. However, he welcomes being referred to/treated as a man or as a woman, so any pronouns are ok to use for him, both IC and OOC. I myself will mostly refer to him as 'Cangrande' and use he/him pronouns, but I might sometimes use she/her instead, sorry in advance if it gets confusing!
OOC PERMISSIONS
Romance/Sex: I have no OOC qualms, but this 1. would be difficult 2. could lead to your character being in mortal danger IC, so uhh good luck
Fighting: I LOVE conflict and am totally down for it coming to blows, but with the murdergame crunch schedule I'll probably prefer to handwave/fade to black/hash out the result OOC since I find combat threads a little energy draining
Death: WE'LL SEE ABOUT THAT, NOW WON'T WE
Mind-reading: yes! just let me know so I can give you his inner workings ofc
Backtagging: I will try to backtag if it comes up, but if I drop an older thread to focus on current things please know the problem is me and my energy levels and not you
Threadjacking: ask first just in case, but in general I HIGHLY enjoy it
Fourthwalling: since Cangrande is an OC you can't really fourth wall his stuff (past what is provided by the publicly available information on billboards and such in akudamax), but you CAN and I ENCOURAGE fourthwalling details about Romeo & Juliet. it is still an entirely fictional and extremely recognizable play in his story. he's just like this.
POWERS INFO AND OPT-IN/OPT-OUT
If Cangrande’s blood is injected into or ingested by another person, the nanomachines in it can modify a person’s brain in various ways. These cannot be used for things like mind control or targeted memory blocks or alterations, but instead attacks different brain functions in more overarching ways. Some examples:
Cangrande’s blood can be set to modify multiple neurological functions at once, but once it is set to those modifications, all of his blood can only perform those modifications. If Cangrande poisons one person to remove their moral inhibitions + instill them with a reward dispenser for committing violent acts, and then afterwards wants to give someone else amnesia, he would have to take a full day to reset and recalibrate his blood inside his body before it could do anything but moral block murderbot to anyone. After that, his blood could then wipe memories as he sees fit (but only wipe memories). The effects can also be tailored to last anywhere from 1-2 hours to permanent.
If you do you not want ANY chance of Cangrande getting his blood in your character, please comment to opt-out and I'll steer clear of it completely! If you would be potentially interested, but have specific hard nos, then let me know now if you want and I can keep those in mind.
If you are DEFINITELY interested in this possibly happening to your character, please do comment to opt-in so I can start rubbing my grubby little hands together!
Regardless of whether you've replied to this post or not, if Cangrande has an opportunity to mess with your character's head, I will contact you beforehand to hash out the details. Cangrande's powers are EXTREMELY flexible and can therefore be tailored for Maximum Fun on the victim player's end, so I will always discuss options first.

If Cangrande’s blood is injected into or ingested by another person, the nanomachines in it can modify a person’s brain in various ways. These cannot be used for things like mind control or targeted memory blocks or alterations, but instead attacks different brain functions in more overarching ways. Some examples:
—while Cangrande can’t make someone forget lunch last Tuesday and ONLY lunch last Tuesday, he can perform a complete memory wipe, attack skill 'memory' such as removing someone's capacity for language, or damage their short-term memory so they will have even more trouble remembering why they walked into a room than usual.
—reduced inhibitions, potentially different kinds. Cangrande could remove someone’s aversion to danger and make them very reckless, or take away their brain-to-mouth filter so they’re more likely to spill all their secrets. Radio’s brain was modified in two ways, one of which being that his moral block was removed.
—reward chemicals being released. This could make someone feel good when they do as they’re told and make them more compliant, or as with Radio, it could make them feel good when they commit violent acts. This can only be used to reward things that the brain processes as similar to one another (such as everything that causes an adrenaline spike, or every time a person speaks) and can’t be used to reward them if they do or say something very specific (like ONLY jumping off a cliff, or ONLY saying the phrase “dancing monkeys”).
—removing any particular emotion, like love, hate, joy, sorrow, guilt, etc.
Cangrande’s blood can be set to modify multiple neurological functions at once, but once it is set to those modifications, all of his blood can only perform those modifications. If Cangrande poisons one person to remove their moral inhibitions + instill them with a reward dispenser for committing violent acts, and then afterwards wants to give someone else amnesia, he would have to take a full day to reset and recalibrate his blood inside his body before it could do anything but moral block murderbot to anyone.
