SYMBIOTE INFORMATION

[IOTA] - [SHADOW MANIPULATION]
(+) Capable of cloaking self within shadows and being undetected.
(-) Can remain hidden for a limited amount of time ( 30 minutes if stationary, 15 minutes if moving ), shadows and/or darkness must already be present. Can not cloak others as well, doing so is exhausting, and will near immediately break cover; using this power creates a strange sense of disassociation.

BROOD PERMISSIONS
Things always up for grabs: New York, SHIELD, the fact that he was an Agent and then a Superhero, missions of varying sizes and colors and difficulty, a lot of fighting, a lot of death. A lot on Archery, because he really loves arrows ok. Might get bits and bobs about kids and a wife, usually followed by a muted sense of longing and love and guilt. But generally speaking he's good natured. He's pretty mellow and probably strangely calming to be around. Snipers, man. He's good at the whole wait and relax in one spot for hours. That said there's also usually a low level thrum of anxiety due to the whole mind meld thing. THANKS LOKI.

Generally speaking, though, Clint will have a wall up between himself and his broodmates. Might not always be the most efficient at keeping someone out though. Some of this is due to old trauma, but most of it is due to the fact that he's a paranoid old badger, and also because mind shit kind of freaks him out ok. Yes he's a spy but man snooping around in his head is a whole other level.

NEST PERMISSIONS

Clint's on lockdown mode. His barriers are quite good, and he typically only purposefully lets them down. He feels things pretty intensely but generally tried to be stoic -- a cursory look will be able to sense it anyway. Lingering anxiety due to mindcontrol will stay for a while, eventually he'll become resigned to it even if it's never comfortable.

He'll probably also be using some tricks he picked up during his #sniperlyfe plus therapy to keep calm and grounded. Nestmates are free to pick up on both of these, and he's pretty open about being an Agent. Aside from that, I'll do my best to provide basic emotional reactions within tags!

MENTAL LINK

Wheat. The scent of cut grass. Blood. Rough bricks. Fletching between fingertips, the twip of a loosed arrow, the strain of drawing a bow. Cityscapes from up high, smog, muffled noises, the sense of waiting. Feathers.

Determination. Guilt and Shame. Self-confidence, a surety in one's skills. Aggressive but absent loyalty. An undertone of rage.

PERMISSIONS

Physical Affection: Go for it, but he'll pull away until he gets to know you.
Physical Violence: Down with it. But he's likely to give as good as he gets.
Romance/Relationships: You can try but he apparently has a secret wife.
Thread-jacking: I'd prefer a heads up, but probably all good tbh.
Back-tagging: Aces.
Fourth-walling: Sure?
Offensive Subjects/Triggers: I'll let y'all know.
Anything Else? My timezone is CST, but I'm around weird hours, so.

ABILITY PERMISSIONS

Generally speaking, Clint's power doesn't affect others, especially at his current level. Prolonged use can eventually cause an eerie sense of disassociation, but for now -- nothing that'll harm other players. However, eventually he'll be able to take others with him into shadows and if at that point anybody would like to opt out or plot out anything, feel free to comment!
