OPT-OUT: Klaus is in a canon with many dark themes and potential triggers. Though it is more likely to come up in narration, the themes/triggers associated with Klaus are: child abuse (physical, emotional, and verbal); abuse of family members (physical, emotional, and verbal); violence, death, and murder (including patricide, matricide, and fratricide); and alcoholism. Don't hesitate to let me know here or privately if any of these topics are uncomfortable for you or if you would rather not be tagged by Klaus at all.

→ ABILITIES

mind compulsion Klaus is able to employ a form of mind control on humans and The Vampire Diaries vampires that is referred to as compulsion by looking directly into a person's eyes and giving them a verbal command. (Though vampires from The Vampire Diaries-verse are also capable of compelling people without saying anything at all; direct eye contact can be enough.) He is also able to enter and manipulate the dreams of other sentient creatures as well as display his past memories through touch, though these things are not used nearly as often as the mind-control component.

feeding Klaus has and would feed on humans. Of course, they could be willing victims. If they're not human, something in their blood could turn Klaus on/off to feeding on them.

heightened senses It's also important to note that with Klaus' enhanced senses, he will be able to discern a character's scent and track them. He might also be able to identify your character as human, vampire, or werewolf based on their scent. Let me know if there is a reason he might not be able to do so or if you don't want him to do either of these things. It's up to you!

→ PERMISSIONS FORM

Even if you consent here, there will be no compulsion, feeding, etc. taking place without discussion first about and how we want to play it out to be mutually beneficial.

Please let me know:

1) Is it all right for Klaus to compel your character? (Werewolves and witches are immune to this compulsion; if your character is anything other than human they may also be immune — it's entirely your choice.)

2) How about the possibility of dream manipulation and/or memory-sharing?

3) Is it all right for Klaus to feed off of your character? Please specify whether or not your character's blood possesses any qualities that might affect Klaus in the event that he does feed off of them.

4) Is there any reason Klaus would not be able to discern and track your character's scent? Would their scent be unique to Klaus (i.e. non-human)?
