Crowley is a demon, which means that temptation is pretty much his game. And considering he was once the snake that tempted Eve, he's pretty damn good at it. This means that, among other typical demon powers, he can sense desires and can also, if he sets his mind to it, tempt people by lowering their inhibitions and making them more open to suggestion.

Since this, moreso than his other demonic powers, can veer into godmodding/infomodding territory, here's a permissions post! Let me know the following in the comments:

*Can Crowley sense your character's desires? Note: these tend to be superficial desires and less so deep dark secret desires--though he can figure the latter out if he concentrates enough.

*Can Crowley tempt your character? This can be anything from tempting someone to break a diet to tempting them to infidelity.

woot thanks!

[seekingbrother]

Feel free to try tempting Al! He is...mostly wanting his memories unlocked, but having a way to get Ed back home with him is also a high priority!

[thepointisdolphins]

thanks!

Can Crowley sense your character's desires? Susan's general desires are usually pretty easy to identify, unholy talent for it or not, so yeah, I'd say he probably can. (Really, even her deepest darkest desires are...pretty obviously up front. I'm pretty sure anyone could figure them out and Crowley's got all those years of practice. He won't know why, of course, but when has that ever made a difference, amirite?)

Can Crowley tempt your character? Seeing as Susan can be talked into most things with a reasonable argument, yeah, probably. He won't be able to maneuver her into anything she's not already (somewhat) in favor of, or anything really overtly huge, but he could probably play merry havoc with her otherwise. (Unless, of course, it violates her delicate Edwardian sensibilities and/or those chocolates have nougat in them.)

PS: I totally encourage him playing merry havoc with her if the mood strikes him.

(If it ever comes up, these won't work on her mirror. Not because she's super special but because, well, she's not quite so reserved when it comes to attaining her desires.)

yessss good :3

[watchthedetective]

EEEEEEEEEE CROWLEEEEEEEY ♥

Okay. For Joan Watson:
Yes to both. She's just a normal human being, she doesn't have any particular resistance to supernatural influence. She's pretty well-adjusted, though, so her desires aren't especially juicy.

For Greed:
Sense away. Being Greed, he wants everything, it's not exactly difficult to tell. Psychologically, he's basically a huge seething mass of WANT. On the "deep dark secret" level, his truest desire is for friends, so go ahead and have Crowley notice that if he puts his mind to it.

Tempting him... would probably be possible under certain circumstances, but I think it would more usually be like trying to burn ash. He's always acting on his desires, and if there's one he's not indulging it's because he's busy with a stronger one. But, if for any reason he's resisting one, go ahead and tempt.

[thepointisdolphins]

Ahahahahah excellent thanks

[donttestme]

Desires, yes (though they're pretty plain here in Wonderland, haha)

Temptation, also yes. Though depending on the situation, it might be a task, since it's Chell and all. ^^;

[thepointisdolphins]

excellent thank you!

[absolutelynot]

Yes.

Let's go with ask first. It'll probably be a case-by-case thing.

[thepointisdolphins]

Oh yeah it's definitely going to be case by case unless there's an event or something.

[absolutelynot]

/nodnod. That's fair, then!

[childofthemoon]

Castiel: No to the first, the second with really good arguments maybe ;)

Ruby: Yes to both, but with some OOC checking in beforehand please <3 Ruby's currently in the process of developing a crush, but generally more or less just wants to stretch her legs in the woods and make sure her friends are happy and safe. She longs for connections to other people.

[thepointisdolphins]

MUAHAHAHAHA thank you :3

[righteously]

Desires: Sure!

At any given time, Dean typically desires:

Alcohol
Food
To punch Someone In The Face
To give up
Less consciously: his best friend.

Tempting: Go for it! He's pretty used to being supernaturally influenced so if it's blatant he might catch on eventually, but at first he'll be completely unaware and unable to resist.

[thepointisdolphins]

eeeeeeeexcellent >:3

[oncefairytale]

Desires: Go for it :3

Tempting: Mostly yes!

[thepointisdolphins]

yay thanks!

[airshipswank]

tl;dr: Yes, to both!

Can Crowley sense your character's desires?
Yes, absolutely. They're probably most easily summed up by your average shopping basket of lust and greed with sparkly sprinkles of pride, but let me know if you ever need details or something deeper / more profound (there isn't much of that in his case, but I could probably swing a handful of Deep and Dark Secrets (TM))

Can Crowley tempt your character?
ahAHahaHAHahhaAHahaAHAhHHhhhhhhhhhhhI MEAN UM. Yes, he absolutely has permission to tempt Buckingham, though he'd probably discover that most of the time Buckingham doesn't need a push (or even a nudge, really) to do absolutely everything and anything he wants. It's a bit like asking Eve to take a bite of the apple and discovering she already made pie with it.

[thepointisdolphins]

ahahahahah excellenttttt thanks!

[radiopalkiller]

Can Crowley sense your character's desires?
Yes, although superficially Philip does not have a great deal of those left in his current state and I couldn't give a good overview of his "general" desires, so to speak, so he'd be more of a case-by-case basis, depending on his exact situation/mood at any given point in time.

Can Crowley tempt your character?
Generally yes, though it depends on the consequences. A night of binge drinking will probably be fine, a night of mass slaughter I'll have to contemplate before playing out. So basically, please consult for "weightier" temptations.

[thepointisdolphins]

Case by case sounds the best! That's generally going to be my default for everyone anyway :) Thanks!

[ahousedivided]

Can Crowley sense your character's desires?
GO FOR IT. America's got a lot of them so if you want a full list let me know and I will just. Keep throwing them at you. Most of it's gonna be superfluous I WANT FOOD though there's some heavy stuff mixed in.

Zacharie is a yes too but I can't think of anything he actually wants. Crowley's mostly going to get a blank slate from him whoops.

Can Crowley tempt your character?
AMERICA DEFINITELY YES. Zacharie I will also say "yes" to but good luck man.

[thepointisdolphins]

OH MY GOD YOU ALSO PLAY ZACHARIE excellent

THANKS BRO

[freewill]

Can Crowley sense your character's desires? Sure thing! Castiel's desires tend to be kind of deeper ones, but he might have a few superficial things lurking around. Just ask me if it comes up in a thread and I'll let you know.

Can Crowley tempt your character? Why not? He's gonna be pissed, though, if he figures out what happened.

P.S. go do mine!

[thepointisdolphins]

Muahahahahaha thanks :3 /goes to do yours

[tenpetals]

Both of these things are definitely possible to do on Garry.

[thepointisdolphins]

hey thanks!

[glumshoe]

Both of these are a yes :3 Though the only thing Will might be tempted into is punching him in the face.

[thepointisdolphins]

excellent
