1) Dooku is telepathic. He is strong in the Dark Side of the Force, which allows him to intuit the thoughts and feelings of others to a certain extent, or even 'read' information from their minds. Please let me know here if it is okay to use these abilities on your character in threads, otherwise I will always ask before each use!
2) Dooku lies. A staggering proportion of the things that come out of Dooku's mouth are half-truths, 'true from a certain point of view,' false promises, the truth with crucial information omitted, and outright lies. If your character has an ability or talent in detecting falsity, please let me know here so we can plot how to incorporate it into threads with Count Dooku!
3) Dooku is racist. Or rather, Humanocentric. While he conceals it carefully, he secretly holds aliens in contempt and believes Humans (like himself) should be the leaders in the Galaxy. If this is uncomfortable for you and you would prefer not to be tagged by Dooku, please inform me on this post and I will respect your wishes.
4) No fourth-walling, please. Dooku is from an obscure little canon called Star Wars that many characters may recognize him from. While I'm happy to see characters talking between themselves about the Sith Lord in their midst, please do not directly tell Dooku he is from a widely-known pop culture phenomenon, or that your character knows details of his past/future.
5) Dooku chokes people. One of the classic Dark Side powers he wields is to telekinetically strangle people with a gesture- even over means of communication, like a Network. Generally speaking, if the Count can see your character, he can choke them. I will not have him use this ability on any character without prior discussion.

Date: 2016-01-09 03:32 pm (UTC)From:There's the Scarecrow face/persona/self to deal with as well. Crane effectively died as the man he was in Arkham and took on this new life. That might be interesting to play around with? Though given the nature of his MO and mental state it can go into deep dark places. I think psychologically, given his training, Crane knows how to train his thoughts - though that doesn't account for supernatural power. TL;DR we can plan things out np let's do this thing.
2: Given his psychological expertise and training, I think Crane would have some ground here? He wouldn't know what exactly Dooku's lying about off the bat but he's been working with the worst sort of criminals and patients. It'd have been part of his job, especially in court, to detect people trying to defraud the system for an insanity plea ignoring the fact he facilitated lots of those ok ok. Also tbf he'd sit back and popcorn and watch Dooku do his thing so he can see what happens.
3: This is fine!
4: Like Crane watches Star Wars pffffft.
5: I've set Crane on fire and had him shoved through a window and beaten up so WHY NOT. Just let me know ahead of time since, well, it's Crane. He's a vengeful little shit.
