weneverwin: (sigh)
OOC PREFERENCES:
CONTACT METHOD: plurk (fiercebadrabbit) or aim (blitztsunami) are both reliable
THREAD-JACKING: Generally fine, so ask if concerned.
FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: Todd's a bit dense and wouldn't be bothered, just not very usefully confused.
BACKTAGGING: Yes, forever!
AVOIDED TOPICS: Not much in the way of hard no's. I'll say something if disturbed, and though anything that touches on iffy subjects should probably be discussed. Common sense.
PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: She/her

IC CHARACTERISTICS:
CURRENT CANON POINT: Recently post-show (after fighting Apocalypse, before anything else noteworthy happens)

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Todd standing up with his mouth closed looks almost normal. Tiny, skinny, pale, and unhealthy, with his age hard to peg, but like a pale, undergrown teenager with a bad haircut and poor personal grooming habits. (He does usually smell--his mutation makes soap uncomfortable, though he affects aggressive unconcern.) His tongue is actually several feet long and dark green, capable of snapping like his namesake animal's, and his body plan is correspondingly altered. His spine hunches, his legs are long and unnaturally strong, and he travels best by hopping. Standing up and walking normally too long is actually pretty uncomfortable. His fingers and toes are webbed as well. Todd speaks with a pronounced Brooklyn accent, with a voice in the middle of changing and prone to extremes. Deep and almost inaudible when he's sullen, squeaky and inclined to shriek if he panics, everywhere in between.

DEMEANOR: Todd's default behavior is that of a surly prey animal. He's usually hiding or seeking high ground when he's not with trusted companions (and while he's hiding he's usually spying or stealing, because he can). He fights mean if he has to but prefers running away whenever possible. He's very free with emotions, once elicited, but tends to start every interaction with sullen, guarded rudeness. Occasionally he chooses obviously false and ridiculous bravado as his armor instead of being mean, unpleasant, or gross, but the end result is the same--an attempt to make people go away before they reject him. Or punch him. Punching happens a lot, too.

ABILITIES: Todd's powers are currently pretty curtailed. He can shoot his tongue out about three feet with no particular force, jump higher and better than normal humans, and stick to surfaces he touches with bare skin, by way of super powers. He is also a gifted if unschooled techie, an information sponge, and a sneak.

MEDICAL INFORMATION: Skeletal and muscular anatomy is pretty far from baseline human, altered for jumping and kicking efficiency over bipedal locomotion. His skin is extremely sensitive and a little oddly textured (smoother and more prone to wet than normal). His tongue, webbed fingers, and other mutations all present potential problems. On a more volitional note, Todd has incredible pain tolerance. He might whine, but it would be hard to get a straight answer about severity.

CABIN INFORMATION: The door is a battered but unremarkable affair, late twentieth century earth, cheap wood, broken doorknob. The room inside is a deliberate catastrophe. From the app...

 "The room was a disaster for all five senses, the kind of mess that must be striven for to be achieved. Any teenager can leave clothes on the floor and trash in the corner. It took a special talent to stick socks to the ceiling and bury a broken kitchen chair in twinkie wrappers. He didn't even eat twinkies that much. Okay, and easy to shoplift, but after a while he'd started collecting the junk on purpose to add to his art installation. The creatively assorted filth was a fortress and a statement. And also way easier than cleaning things.

The bed didn't appear to be occupied, or at least occupied in particular. About half of the little mattress was taken up by undifferentiated piles. Magazines and books made up more of the mess than one might expect, but ragged clothes, second-hand action figures, part of a toaster, dirty dishes, a backgammon board, and half a bag of chips were visible just in the top layer. The rest looked like lumpy blankets scattered more lightly with the same kind of debris. Todd could curl up pretty small, though, and he crawled halfway out and tumbled to the floor without disturbing the mess much. A sketchbook and a coffee cup followed him out of the bed and whacked him on the head, but he barely noticed."
 

OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Nothing! Says Toad. He's pretty sensitive about being what he is, whether he'll admit it or not, and any mockery on that subject or his general failure to function in life will... make him sad. And therefore cranky. And possibly destructive.

IC PERMISSIONS:
MENTAL: In character, he'd be pissed off and freaked, but just kind of accept it. Check with me, but these are the kinds of problems he's used to and already disturbed by, so interesting potential.
MIMICRY: Sure, though he'd be mystified as to why anyone would want to.
VIOLENCE: They can try! He'll probably run, unless cornered or he psyches himself into feeling cool, in which case he'll get his ass kicked.
MAGIC: Yes, though check for any squicky subjects, which aren't any different for magic as any other situation.
DEBATE: Yes, but it probably won't work well.
