PERMISSIONS

GENERAL

CHARACTER NAME: Murderbot
CHARACTER SERIES: The Murderbot Diaries

[OOC]

Backtagging: Yes
Threadhopping: Yes
Fourthwalling: No
Offensive subjects (elaborate): I'd appreciate a warning if we're dealing with suicide or self-harm. Other than that, there's very little that squicks me, and if I'm uncomfortable in a thread I'll bring it up!

[IC]

Hugging this character: You can try. Murderbot doesn't like to be touched.
Kissing this character: See above.
Flirting with this character: Murderbot also does not do romance. Enjoy the reactions?
Fighting with this character: Sure!
Injuring this character (include limits and severity): Go for it.
Killing this character: Warn me in advance, but Murderbot can recover from just about anything.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: As a cyborg, Murderbot has just enough organic tissue to be read, one imagines; however, it probably feels weird. Contact me if you plan to do this so we can discuss!

Warnings: Murderbot's canon deals with trauma and PTSD, social anxiety (which can be played for humor but still is a Thing), mindfuckery in general, and other serious topics. It also has a potty mouth.




HACKING

So Murderbot is pretty casual about hacking most systems, especially 'dumb' AI. While it's not designed for hacking, it's developed the skill over years of practice and has only refined it further as of late to ensure its safety and the safety of its clients. As such, it's very possible Murderbot may attempt to access things that are player-controlled, and as such, this is an opt-in post to grant permissions and explain what it might find!

Note that in general, permission may be requested anyway, or at least an idea pitched regarding what Murderbot's trying/intending to do; the information here will more or less give me a bit more information up-front so I can get a better idea on where the thread/plot/etc can go. Note that even if permission is not given - eg, outright said 'nah, no hacking' - it may still try, but failing is absolutely on the table no matter what. Especially for intelligent/smarter AI that isn't just a basic system.

Anyway! Here's a quick infobox for you.

CHARACTER NAME who dis
CAN MURDERBOT HACK YO STUFF? A flat 'no' is super acceptable, as is a 'depends on the situation'. If there's any sort of defense/etc that it might encounter, you can mention it here!
WHAT KIND OF SYSTEMS ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? Smart devices? Implants? Etc
WHAT CAN MURDERBOT DO WITH THE SYSTEM/HOW MUCH CONTROL COULD IT FEASIBLY GAIN? Can it gain root/admin access over your cybernetics? Can it only glance through the pics on your cellphone? Etc
ANYTHING ELSE? Any other notes go here!

Yeah! Tony's annoyance at his toy being used w/out permission will be matched by how impressed he is that it managed to get through security protocols in the first place.

I'm not familiar with TMD but it sounds interesting, and this could be some neat cr, esp since Tony is very pre-Ultron and therefore not quite as concerned about potential killer AIs.
