Dru is a pretty vicious, heartless vampire. She has a penchant for attacking children and the very innocent. She's a killer.

Additionally, she has some psychic powers on top of her usual vampire powers (which include superhuman strength): Drusilla is clairvoyant, telepathic, can read auras, has precognition, and can hypnotize her prey. This makes her attacking style different from other vampires like Angelus or Spike. She gets a kick out of watching fights, but hand-to-hand or weapons combat are not her style. She is unlikely to engage in a straight-up fight with an armed opponent unless her unlife or something else of great importance is at stake. (NO PUN INTENDED OMG.)

Instead, Dru toys with victims for fun, hypnotizing and seducing them, sometimes using her psychic abilities to capture them. She isn't really a fighter in the traditional sense.

If you wouldn't mind giving me relevant information for your character, that would be great. I don't want to overstep boundaries. ALSO -- reach me on Plurk at manicmanic if you have questions or want to plot something.

*******************************

I: Can Drusilla physically attack your character?

If so, would you allow her to:

a) Bite your character?

b) Feed off your character's blood?

c) Capture and imprison your character?

d) Torture your character?

e) Kill your character?

*********************************

II. Can Drusilla mess with your character's mind?

a) Can she read your character's aura? If so, what might the aura look like?

b) Can she communicate with your character telepathically?

c) Do you want Dru to see anything in your character's future with her precognition? (This will probably only be a hazy look: Luceti is limiting her abilities. She might be successful only half the time with her precognition and all the rest of it.)

d) Can Dru hypnotize your character? (Beware: she often does this just before going for the kill.)

Drusilla can also read Tarot cards. I doubt she would sit down with just anyone and do this, so it might have to be a plot-relevant thing, and only for allies.

Here is some info on auras, in case anyone was wondering or wanted more info on that.

I: She can attack him, but he will attack back and he's a powerhouse. So basically I'd say probably a good idea for us to chat before anything because Leonhardt comes with enough warnings of his own if attacked. Probably won't agree to killing though for some time.

II: I'd consider it!

a) Sure, but it will depend on if she's seeing him or one of his shadows. The shadows likely have no aura since they aren't living creatures. As far as Leonhardt's, not sure about how auras work in Buffyverse, and he's a weirdo as it is. If you can give me a basic rundown of how it works in their canon, I'd be happy to give more details.

b) I'd not be against it, but I personally see him having some mental barriers that would make it harder for her.

c) Gonna say no to this.

d) See answer to b. He's definitely familiar with hypnosis and how it works, so he'd be able to defend against it to some degree.

The canon is vague about auras. Dru will have to concentrate harder to see them in Luceti as part of the power cap. USUALLY she reads them as a strategic act, rather than a random one. I would leave it up to the player to tell me what she would see, actually!

Actually, let's just say I'll give you what is needed when the time comes because his is likely to shift around more depending on circumstances. But her abilities will definitely let her see if she's really speaking with him or a shadow so I'll try to remember to note that for you.
