George has a magical power known as The Sight. It's essentially a magical augmentation to his actual eyesight, allowing him to narrow in on details, along with giving him much sharper instincts for things.
Things he can tell:
- if someone is nearby. If he knows the person well, it can extend to knowing that specific person is nearby
- if someone is lying or holding something back from him
- if someone has magical powers.
- if magic is being used, if an item is magical.
- if someone has been touched by the gods
- if someone is ill in some way
- on occasion, if someone will be a friend or an enemy
He also can sense sometimes if it'll be good for him to get to know a person, or do a certain thing.
HOWEVER, where he's from, if a person has the Gift (the standard magical power) he can't see much about them, outside of noticing their presence. This can easily apply or not apply to the magical people of other worlds.
So that's where the questions come in.
Just fill out the above in a comment and I'll refer to it when threading with you.

loki laufeyson;
Does your character have magic? What kind/would it feel different than the Gift (standard magic) to him?
His magic is difficult to define; in essence, Loki can create any number of solutions from any number of possibilities. He could use the word 'Abracadabra' with some jammy, bacon-y ritual signs thrown in and something would probably happen. "Me? I can do finesse. Anything one can manage with a wand and a word is within my skillful purview." Magic for Loki is "Taking a Lie and making it Truth". Grimoires, etc, whatever he picks up, "I've got a D&D manual somewhere".
He works primarily with illusions and lies but the latter has been stripped from him for the moment in his canon, so he'll be trying to skirt around truths wherever he feels it's necessary. And he's also a shapeshifter and teleportor!
If yes, would you like their magic to protect them from George's Sight? Would you like it to work sometimes but for there to be exceptions?
Loki works on the theory of Chaos Being Change, so it would make sense for him to sometimes completely evade notice and at others to casually let himself be known, he's the sneakiest of sneaks but he does like some attention.
If you would like his Sight to work, is there anything in particular George would sense? Is there anything you would like him to sense?
Loki is very literally a god, you can play with that however you wish! He's an old, old soul, newly reincarnated (after a fashion) twice. He also has a godly density which makes him 3X heavier than normal people and more likely to get the walls shaking if he's angry.
Anything else you would like to add? Anything I've missed?
I can't think of anything! His info post is this a-way!
