PERMISSIONS.

Max has mind control powers -- what does this mean? Well, it means that he sometimes mentally "pushes" people's minds to persuade them to do what he wants.

He can also erase and implant memories, as well as control multiple people's minds at once. Whenever he uses his power, he gets a nosebleed. Using it on a lot of people at once results in more extreme bleeding (eyes/ears/mouth), but that's not relevant to this post. This post is to basically opt in or plot or clarify or whatever the hell you want to do!

I won't have him use his ability on anyone without permission even if you do post here, so worry not! But this is a general opt-in, I won't spring anything on anyone, nothing bad happens if you don't fill this out. But it's helpful. Most of this stuff also may never ever come up, but if you are interested in any of it for plotting reasons let me know. Further details on his range and limitations can be found in his application.

As an example, Max has never been able to control Wonder Woman, though he did erase her memory of him. Also feel free to include any thought processes/mental disorders that may make it harder for him to exert control, and also his power can't affect AIs/cyborgs.) <font face="impact">Is there anything he just CAN'T make them do?</font> (Example: He wasn't able to make Superman kill.) <font face="impact">Are you open to him pushing your character's mind?</font> <font face="impact">If so, in what ways would they be most vulnerable to manipulation?</font> <font face="impact">Are you open to him erasing/implanting memories (if so, what kind?)?</font> <font face="impact">Is there anything you <i>don't</i> want him pushing for/mentioning ever?</font> <font face="impact">Are you open to him pushing other characters for information on your character?</font>

I THINK that's it, but if I'm missing anything, feel free to elaborate!

Can your character be affected by mind control? This is kind of a toughie! Doom was immune from the Purple Man because, well basically he's a badass and can't be tamed (his willpower was too great). However, he was present in the House of M, thus implying that really world-breaking skills could do it? I'm open to the possibility, but it should probably be extremely difficult for him.
Is there anything he just CAN'T make them do? No, Doom is pretty ruthless. It's the end result, not the means to it.
Are you open to him pushing your character's mind? Yes.
If so, in what ways would they be most vulnerable to manipulation? Anything pertaining to self-doubt, particularly in regards to him being in the right/not really a villain.
Are you open to him erasing/implanting memories (if so, what kind?)? Yes, but again it would be difficult and I'm not entirely sure exactly what?
Is there anything you don't want him pushing for/mentioning ever? Nope. Everything is fair game.
Are you open to him pushing other characters for information on your character? Yes.

There is some canon precedent for Max not being able to mind control certain people, but still able to affect them in his global mindwipe (not that he'll likely be doing that in game ever, but...) so that actually works out pretty well! But also we can always hash things out more specifically however you end up wanting to do it if ever applicable for plot.
