ic knowledge permissions post

So, Arthur is a point man. What this means for him in canon is that he spends his time gathering information on marks. There's no mark for him in space, so instead he'll be gathering information on the other characters.

This is my catch-all post where you can opt in or opt out with certain information and permissions. Basically, I would like you to reply to this post answering these questions:

Is it okay for Arthur to hack your character's encrypted posts?
Gather information on their day to day activities?
What personal information can he know about them?
What would you prefer he not know?

And any additional information you think might be relevant along those lines.

Everything is subjective, of course. Some characters have encryptions Arthur will never be able to hack, and he won't follow everyone forever. This is essentially for my own reference, and it is entirely voluntary. If you don't reply and Arthur takes something of an interest in your character, I will contact you directly with these questions.

You can also reply to this simply with "Opt out", and he won't follow your character at all, to the limits of it being in character .If your character is a major villain, for instance, he may want to gather information on them - but he still won't be able to follow them, or break their encryptions, and will be limited to what unencrypted information that character puts out on the network.

There are also things that will occur in-game where I may have to ask your permission even with this information. But for now, I would be very thankful for you answering these questions! <3

Handy dandy question text in case you want to answer them like a list, and not in a free flowing comment:

Is it okay for Arthur to hack your character's encrypted posts?

No.

Gather information on their day to day activities?

Sure! She shops a lot.

What personal information can he know about them?

She's from Boston, has a lot of family money, and is a mutant (whatever that means) with the ability to turn into diamond. Her life has apparently been pretty horrible, but she's controlled about expressing how she feels about that. She's nonchalant about the stuff that keeps happening on Sacrosanct. At home, she runs a private school, is a business tycoon, and acts as some kind of vigilante.

She recognizes all the other Marvel characters, but is not from the same universe as many of them. She is wary of non-mutants, and is bros with Pietro, Kurt, Hank, and Miranda. She has a mentoring/somewhat maternal relationship with Violet, and talks to Magneto under encryption a lot. Despite being flirty, she has a boyfriend at home who she has either been loyal to or covered her tracks remarkably well.

What would you prefer he not know?

I'm okay with him finding out she's a telepath eventually, but not right away, please. It's technically possible to get suspicious about it from open network postings, but you'd need Bat-level paranoia to dig it up.
myownbestfriend: ([diamond] Whose side are you on?)

[personal profile] myownbestfriend 2012-07-10 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
She's pretty open about the diamond thing. She hasn't switched on-camera in any top-level posts, but she's demonstrated for people with video in unencrypted comments.
myownbestfriend: (I might just have figured something out.)

[personal profile] myownbestfriend 2012-07-10 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
He knows how to dress himself, which might be enough for her to home in on him.

Is it okay for Arthur to hack your character's encrypted posts?

Generally, no, unless specified as loose encryption (or OOC-discussed)). (Or for some CR he is allowed on the Batcryption, but, well. That is very likely...)

Gather information on their day to day activities?

Sure. He's usually on the network as Damian.

What personal information can he know about them?

Hmm. Age, first name. That he has education (and training) above his years. He spends a lot of whatever time he is visible as Damian with Terry (WALKS THE PUPPY) and sometimes with Dick Grayson. Does not have a residence registered as rented by him.
As Robin... He's out at night or when there is an emergency.

What would you prefer he not know?

Pfff. Not secret identity right off the bat. Anything else, I will answer y/n if Arthur has reason to suspect about it?

Anything else you would like to add?

Damian has gotten pretty good about concealing the identities of the rest of the Batfam, so while his is relatively easy to figure out on Sacrosanct, figuring the identity of others through him ought to be cleared with the respective muns?
demon_brat: (Hope is a rare thing (Dami))

[personal profile] demon_brat 2012-07-10 08:36 am (UTC)(link)
Anytime!

And hah *nods* good. But, I mean, there is ONE ten-year-old boy on Sacrosanct, as far as I know. The probability that his identity will remain secret for long against somebody who's prying... Well, now we also have Stephanie-Robin, so it may be confusing for SOME time. ;)

[personal profile] demon_brat 2012-07-10 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)
That can work! And also we can let things take their course and deal with how it comes down... when it starts coming down. ;)

Is it okay for Arthur to hack your character's encrypted posts?

For Samus, yes, however there's a chance she would notice it and either do something about it or simply note that she's being hacked. For Lara Croft, yes, since the woman doesn't understand technology anyway. And for Batgirl, like with Damian, not batcrypted stuff. But normal encryptions she does? Sure.


Gather information on their day to day activities?

Sure. Weirdo.


What personal information can he know about them?

For Samus she's some sort of bounty hunter, has serious firepower in her armor, and maybe that she's not entirely human as she's hinted it on the open network before. Not sure what else would be out there. For Lara that she's an avid explorer, is quite wealthy (at least at home), is an expert marksman. For Batgirl, I'm not entirely sure as a lot of it involves her secret identity.

Really, for any of them, if there's any specific information you need/want him to know just hit me up.


What would you prefer he not know?

Batgirl's identity as Stephanie Brown, but like I said with anything else hit me up. I'm pretty open to things getting found out since Arthur's kind of crazy-cool.


Anything else you would like to add?

We're good!

I would like to if you would! Samus would likely be upset but also very very curious.

I think I'd be okay with it happening sometime, but definitely in the future. Steph is having a hard time right now convincing everyone she's competent anyway, getting her identity found out would make it worse.

Eve

[personal profile] halfheartedcurse 2012-08-14 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
Is it okay for Arthur to hack your character's encrypted posts?
Eve can't encrypt for beans. If she does have private posts, they're easy to get through because they're the default Sacrosanct ones. Any threads she has under Normandyhaus filtered posts would need to be run by the poster.

Gather information on their day to day activities?
Sure. She mostly does taxidermy and crawls around in vents.

What personal information can he know about them?

She's been pretty open about her whole life so far. Most of it can be found on hte network. The basics are that her mother went insane and started hearing a voice telling her to be the worst parent ever. She took her daughter's things and clothes, locked her in her room and then forced her to flee to the basement after trying to stab her.

Eve fights monsters with a combination of projectile tears, attack dead bird, a magical butchers knife, a horrible curse, and tenacity. Lots of tenacity. She is being looked after by Legion and Deadlock for the most part.

What would you prefer he not know?
Stuff that wouldn't be obvious right off. The depth of her distrust of parental figures. Exactly how completely ruined her psyche is. Her dislike of wide open spaces. How badly she overreacts to spiders and flies and insects in general.

Anything else you would like to add?

Not really? Binding of Isaac is a pretty fucked up game?

Eve needs more people looking after her to make sure she doesn't make bad life decisions.

Literally all you'd need to do is pop into her tag on the network comm and just
I'm so sorry you'll have to read those
Most of it is funny though
but most of it is like
Oh my god what is wrong with this kid....

and also that time she died and broke a blender and then her body exploded
