Hi all,

Witchers are equipped with a number of items, spells and abilities that make them adept monster hunters and incredibly difficult people to RP. I've created a super basic form for you to opt in/. Feel free to use it, write your own blurb or just PM me during a thread to let me know if something should or should not be detected.

Medallion Detection:
Here is a link to the wiki page page for a comprehensive explanation. Here is a quote that explains the gist of whether your character might make the medallion pulse.

"Medallions vibrate in response to magic in all its forms, including curses, charms, and spells. They also warn of lurking monsters born of magic or magic experimentation. However, witcher medallions are not foolproof, certain monsters such as dopplers and higher vampires remain undetected whenever in range of a medallion."

Scent:
Please let me know a brief description of what your character generally smells like. If something is different and detectable, write it into your tag and Geralt can react.

Pulse Detection/Truth Sensing:
Geralt can easily hear pulses and can use this to figure out if someone is scared/excited etc. He can also use it to hear someone coming.

You can also opt out of him using it to detect if your character is lying. If your character is not a good liar he can sense their pulse not matching their words. If they're a trained liar, he can probably miss this.

Ultra-Hearing:
This is more for characters who are super stealthy, Geralt can hear an elf nocking an arrow deep in the woods and their breath as they do so he has incredibly good hearing and it is hard to sneak up on him.

That said if your character SHOULD be able to, let me know and he won't hear them coming.

Axii:
Once again, a wiki link.

Axii is a hypnotic spell Geralt can cast, when it works he can use it to influence mood or actions. It doesn't seem to be able to work on some characters but because it is Witcher it doesn't explain why this is. I suspect it is not super effective on strong-minded, magical individuals. It works on monsters.

If you would prefer Geralt doesn't use this or you think it shouldn't be effective let me know.

Opt in/out:

Medallion Trigger: Very faintly, unless she's using gem magic--while Wave doesn't have any magic herself, she does carry an enchantment laid on her from just after birth (not that she knows it, nor would she believe it if she were told).
Scent: Juniper and a collection of different herbs, plants, and spices based on what she's been working on lately. He'll def be able to pick up poisonous scents from time to time like hemlock or nightshade sometimes :)
Pulse Detected (and description): Yep, and it's perfectly normal. He'll absolutely be able to tell when she's lying (if her face doesn't give it away first), and he may also notice her pulse jump if/when she uses her surname.
Gait/Breathing: Also normal! One thing he'll probably pick up on fast is that he'll be able to read her breathing just as easily as he can read her pulse. She's not great at hiding things.
Axii: Yes! Though as a heads up, if she realizes he's done it she's going to freak out :')
