Descry Hopeless

Hopeless is a mind-reader! Details for his mind-reading can be found in this list, but in a nutshell he's a radio switched permanently to 'receive' while everyone else is switched to 'broadcast'. He's almost literally defined by the minds around him. Most of the time he blocks things off to a background noise, and so only reads their current and present thoughts (ie, what's stated or implied in a tag).

He's a very polite mind-reader and will keep peoples' secrets to the death, so even if he does get to know secrets, the chance that they'll come out is slim (circumstances depending). In the case of villains, he won't go ahead and out them to everyone; he's more the type for judicious investigation and intervention.

Limitations to the magic itself: He can't read people who don't have a biological brain (like animated skeletons for instance), and cross-canon blocks could affect him.

As per Eudio acceptance over here, Hopeless's default is a staticky sense of present-mind unless further permission is given. Otherwise I expect to use apps or speak directly to players for details of any really important things he might hear. Mostly, this permissions is for characters who aren't biological; who do have some kind of active mental block or power themselves (as this will change the tenor of the static); whose muns would simply prefer he not be able to read their mind at all.

I'm not going to be too formal with the permissions. Just let me know if your character falls into one of those categories and we can figure out details from there.
