Basically, Håkon is the personification of War, and this gives him a bunch of wacky supernatural powers, one of which is empathy. His empathy comes in four forms:
■ CONFLICT SENSE: As the personification of War, Håkon is capable of sensing inner conflict in others. At the height of his power, he can sense any conflict that a person is in, details about what the conflict is about, and why it matters so much. Basically, if you were having an argument with your best friend, he'd be able to sense that something's up, the details about your best friend puking in your car, and why this matters to you so much (that car was a birthday gift) etc. In-game, Håkon's conflict sense has been nerfed so that he can only sense that there is a conflict in another character. Conflicts come in two flavours: conflict with oneself, and conflict with another person. Håkon can sense both, but unlike in canon, he won't be able to tell any more details other than there is a conflict and it's bugging you.
■ WAR SENSE: It goes without saying that Håkon is pinged by anyone who has had any dealing with war in their lifetime. This can range anywhere from being a soldier, to having witnessed war, to having lost someone in warfare. Once pinged, Håkon will be able to tell that your character has had contact with war before, and in general how your character was affected by it.
■ STRONG EMOTIONS: Like most traditional empaths, Håkon can sense strong emotions coming from people. He can only sense emotions that rate above a 6 on a scale from 1-10. This includes strong happiness, strong anger, strong disappointment etc.
■ PAIN-SHARING: What is says on the tin, rofl. If your character stubbed their toe, Håkon can feel it. If your character is bleeding on the sidewalk, Håkon will feel that too. The pain-sharing only goes one way-- your character's pain becomes Håkon's, but never vice-versa.
What I need from you is whether or not Håkon is allowed to read your character. Everything here is opt-in only! If your form isn't here and we haven't discussed anything before hand, Håkon will not read your character.

■ NAME: Name of your character
■ CANON: Self-explanatory!
■ CONFLICT: If your character is embroiled in a conflict, is Håkon allowed to sense something is up? If yes, what are some current conflicts your character is experiencing?
■ WAR: Has your character been involved in war or otherwise had contact with warfare?
■ STRONG EMOTIONS: When your character experiences strong emotions in Håkon's presence, is he allowed to pick up on it?
■ PAIN-SHARING: Can he :V
■ ANYTHING ELSE: /o\
Thank you for your time!!
