[quote=@alexfangtalon] [@Laser Kiwi] Hmm, questions. Never been good at thinking them up but I do have one. So, as I was looking at this the character that popped into my head was a girl who is almost entirely mute. Maybe on an extremely good day she could say a word or two to family or very close friend. Tends to use an app on her phone or writing to communicate (does know ASL) with others. First question is if a character that has troubles communicating with others is fine? As for her knack it’d be art related. Since she can’t talk she kind of secluded herself for her formative years and took to drawing, painting, and etc. So, I was thinking her knack would be something along those lines maybe a little similar to how your character is with cooking. As for gift though I am completely stumped. I kind of want something that can tie in to who she is or maybe her art? But I only just saw this today so I may come up with something in my sleep. Dunno. But wanted to make sure that a mute character was fine before continuing down that road first. [/quote] I think a mute character is just fine as long as you can keep her actively involved with the plot - her actions and nonverbal communication can be fine to push things forward and let her influence events. A knack for art similar to Kal's or Val's would be really neat. Kal's deals more with how people perceive it, but a knack for picking up techniques or copying things exactly as she sees them could also be very cool. Kenshi's idea for a banshee scream is really neat - you could do a couple of things with her voice, actually. Maybe something like a Siren, where she can hypnotise or suggest ideas but has to actually speak to use it? Or the ability to speak to certain animals? If her Gift ties in with her art she could be an Oracle of sorts, capable of drawing scenes from the future? Or maybe something like the cursed camera from Goosebumps, where she can draw cursed images that will cause bad things to happen to those depicted? I think there's a lot of potential with both voice and art related Gifts.
