♔ Permission Post!

Being God's physical representation on earth means frustrating powers!

Visions

One of Ben's powers  is spontaneous visions of the future, present, and past. They can happen anywhere and anytime, whether in his dreams or while he's wide awake. So there's a good chance that Ben could see a vision from your character, but this will be dependent on mun approval. Characters that have spiritual or magical ability (or some personal artifact on them) are far more likely to trigger a vision. Touching someone could be the catalyst, or Ben may be walking past your character when he finds himself sucked into another mental plane.

His visions can come in varied forms: They can be full scenes or flashes of fragmented visions back to back. Reality may distort and the words of the people around him so that they become vehicles for cryptic messages that tell a greater truth.  Or an illusory figure from your character's past or future may suddenly walk into the present and communicate with him.

If you would like Ben to have a vision during an interaction between our characters, please leave an ooc note in a comment beforehand detailing to me what you'd like him to see!

Healing

Ben's far more useful power is the ability to heal and bring characters back to life! But like that age-old truism says- nothing comes without a price. Physics calls it the law of conversation of energy: energy is neither created nor destroyed, and that proves to be the case for God's little avatar. Ben heals by transferring energy from one living creature to another, and when it comes to restoring life, it's the simple equation of a life for a life.

Ben will resort to using monster lifeforce to heal if he's placed into a situation where he must. Nevertheless, I do want to put a permissions post up so that I know ahead of a time whether using your character for energy (whether unintentionally or intentionally) is kosher! In game, I will always ask beforehand, but I'd like to gather permission beforehand so I know whether to ask!
