PHYSICAL AFFECTION ◇ OK. He's gay and far more affectionate with men than women, uncomfortable with abrupt contact from strangers, and disdainful of female attention. ROMANCE ◇ OK. Not looking, but not impossible. Now that he and Adam Parrish are no longer together, Ronan has committed to Kylo Ren in a serious way. Their relationship hasn't been given a name, nor is it exclusive. PHYSICAL VIOLENCE ◇ OK. He loves to fight and will use any excuse to engage in violent activities, whether for fun or out of anger. |
TELEPATHY & MENTAL CONTACT ◇ OK. Ronan is open and accustomed to telepathic communication. PSYCHOLOGICAL VIOLENCE ◇ OK. He is already engaged in a constant battle with his psyche. DEBATE ◇ OK. But Ronan has little patience for explaining his reasoning to anyone and doesn't care to be understood. DEATH ◇ OK. This will invite the wrath of Kylo Ren and isn't recommended. OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS ◇ He swears a lot, but doesn't tend to use slurs. |

Ronan knows things he couldn't have possibly learned for himself. This is not the same as active omniscience. He doesn't know everything there is to know about anything, right off the top of his head. Rather, information sometimes enters him subconsciously, seemingly out of thin air. It's as if he's an antenna for ideas, picking up signals even from far-off places and relaying them to his dreams and often into his waking life.
This ability gives him a latent insight not just about the world, but about the people around him. The knowledge he receives is often disorganized or altogether indecipherable to him when he's awake, though his dreams can piece it all together for him. Essentially, this power's a kind of widespread one-sided telepathy that picks up information from the collective consciousness, but imprecisely and randomly. Sometimes it's completely useless. Sometimes Ronan knows exactly what's going on or what he's looking at or what he should do. As a dream, Ronan can also take root in someone else's mind. He can live inside their thoughts, communicating with them there in a telepathic and empathic way, experiencing the world through them and imparting his own perceptions. They can experience his dreams together and work in tandem to pull things from those dreams, the way Ronan is capable of doing on his own. He's essentially possessing them without taking control of their motor functions, only granting them his own knowledge and his abilities as the Greywaren. |
no subject
JOURNAL ◇
CLAIRCOGNIZANCE ◇ Absolutely. Flip it on him for once.
WHAT RONAN CAN KNOW ◇ Honestly, just about anything is fair game- having played with you a bit now I'm pretty confident anything you had Ronan pick up on would be used in a way that would be fun. I'm not sure how canon-familiar you are but I'm fine with giving you some points of interest if you need/want them.
WHAT RONAN CAN'T KNOW ◇I'd prefer not to deal with stuff from after his canon point until he's had a chance to experience it for himself. Currently that's immediately after having killed Snoke (he doesn't know that Rey doesn't join him, yet– though tbh he's not going to be too surprised by that one.)
DREAMING ◇ Yes! I think this could be really fun actually... Kylo likely explored some kind of meditative dreaming at some point in his training which could make things interesting.
WHAT RONAN CAN SENSE ◇ Kylo's just a massive chaotic tangle of conflict. His efforts to eradicate the Light were a dismal failure, but he is pretty much irreparably stained by his crimes. Ronan can likely sense Kylo's power, and if his abilities work in a way at all like the Force he can probably pick up on Kylo's emotions (because ofc you need ~special powers~ to tell when this garbage fire with a laser sword is angry amirite). Apparently even people without special sensitivity to the Force can feel Kylo's approach if he's in a bad enough mood- it's like he pollutes the air around him with his misery and hatred. So... you know. Prime friend material.
OTHER NOTES ◇ Kylo has a similar ability- he can pick up on stray thoughts, feelings etc, along with his more active mind-probing skill that he has to consciously employ. If there's ever anything you want me to have him pick up on, do let me know!!
