Obviously, if you don't want Emma in your head, even if you agree that icly she should be able to read and/or control you, note that here. (Even if you don't, I'll probably check with you inline in occ notes because I don't actually know what your character is thinking.)
Permissions post, short version:
Emma's a powerful telepath. What can she see on the surface of your mind without going into it? What are you willing to have her read, change, or control in your mind, and how much effort do you think it should be?
Permissions post, longer version:
Emma Frost is an extremely powerful and skilled telepath. As far as raw power goes, she's among the greatest in Marvel, but the least among them. In skill she's among the best of the best.
Does your character have mental resistance? If so, how big an obstacle is it? (If you want: what form does the resistance take?)
Emma has been known to read thoughts, project messages, read memories, alter memories, read emotions, alter emotions, and implant absurdly specific post-hypnotic suggestion. What do you want her not to be able to do to your character's mind? What do you want her never to do to your character's mind, whether or not she can?
Once she's met you, can Emma find you telepathically?
Finally, what can she see in the surface of your mind, or at the top of your shields, without technically going into your mind?

Date: 2011-09-08 08:02 pm (UTC)just the usual! "man i hate this guy" as she's humoring someone, "i could kill him so fast why am i putting up with this" as she's getting annoyed... kind of standard fare for a bitchy, overconfident megalomaniac. and although there wouldn't be any mention of shapechanging or being a dragon, Emma is free to notice a few things being... odd. remembering a scene she'd experienced as a dragon as being witnessed from five feet above the normal human height, for example.
Mental resistance:
although it wouldn't occur to her to use this at first, and Emma could definitely take advantage of Khisanth not realizing she even needs mental defenses for a while, she DOES have them. she's been trained in an intensive mental discipline called qhen, which would probably just allow her to clear her mind to appear as a blank slate when she thinks to put it to use.
this would also allow her to fend off reading memories and emotions/altering memories and emotoins/hypnotic suggestion. but those would definitely take her a while to figure out how to do, and it would probably be multiple attempts/encounters before Khisanth was able to block Emma out with any effectiveness. masking her thoughts would be the easiest to learn and first thing that she'd pick up on.
What not to do:
i'd definitely prefer to be contacted OOC before too much mind-digging goes on, just because having secrets is a huge part of Khisanth's character. and while i don't mind her cover being blown (she'll probably do it herself sooner or later), i'd like to put some care and planning into specific instances. and i mean this mostly in regards to her being a dragon and the extent of her magic-- her being a generally unsavory character and any unkind motives are totally fair game for picking up on.
THAT SAID, i think anything that i wouldn't want happening would be situational. so, contact first please!
Telepathic locating: SURE SOUNDS GOOD. unless she's trying extra hard with the qhen, but that takes a conscious effort and wouldn't be in place all the time.
