OOC PREFERENCES:
•CONTACT METHOD: AIM: SchmooeyFoo
•THREAD-JACKING: This is fine so long as it's in a thread they should be able to see. If you're not sure, just ask me.
•FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: Is it okay for another character to recognize yours as fictional? Yes! Is it okay for yours to be recognized as an actor? Yes! Is it okay for your character be informed of future events by canonmates that come from later canon points? No/Ask me first!
•BACKTAGGING: I'm fine with backtagging. Sometimes I lose my tabs and have to do a bit of it myself.
•AVOIDED TOPICS: Topics regarding cancer should be avoided.
IC CHARACTERISTICS:
•PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Rumpelstiltskin comes to a height of about 5'8". He always dresses well, and it would probably be an effort for him to affect even business-casual. He wears his hair at about shoulder length and rarely, if ever, ties it back. He keeps himself fairly clean and smells faintly of high-end soap, but this is covered over by the more lingering scent of old books most often associated with antique stores. He has a Scottish accent and speaks in a low, often steady voice that belies his appearance for those that knew him before Storybrooke. He will probably not be often seen without his cane in hand, and presently he appears to need it, as he walks with a distinctive limp.
•DEMEANOR: Rumpelstiltskin has learned over much time to be a man of tiny details, and this comes forward in his behavior. Every little characteristic of a person or a thing is important, so in conversation while he might use this as a way to mince words during an argument, it also means he is interested and pleased at knowing even the most trivial of details in such a way that might lead a person to think he cared. He does, in a weird way, because he finds people interesting. With objects, this means that he doesn't believe there's any such thing as junk. He's appreciative of craftsmanship, whether it's to do with a well-constructed boat, or a tiny nick-knack that serves no other purpose save to sit on a shelf. Perhaps that comes of existing for so long in a world before Storybrooke, where there were not modern distractions or assembly lines, so time passed differently and all things were recognized as made by someone who put considerable effort to it.
•ABILITIES: Rumpelstiltskin can spin straw into gold, and he does this quite often. It kills time. Magic-wise, he can also do the following:
-Tracking: if he has an object that belongs to a person, he can use it to magically track them.
-Telekinesis
-Basic magic: which has to do with often more harmless spells that all magic-users seem to have some tiny knack for. Most of these require meticulous planning, on his part, partially because these come of learned traits and not ones simply given because he is the Dark One.
-Potion-making: he's not only knowledgeable of this; he's the best, able to construct potions of the most esoteric of ingredients. His ability to make them is limited only by his ability to get the items he needs.
-Healing of himself and others, to an extent.
-Heightened Strength and Speed
-Teleporting
-Fireballs and other blasts of power
-Transformation and other spells that alter a person's physical state and abilities
Other talents he happens to have include cooking, book-keeping (though it is hinted he does a lot of this mentally), and litigation. He is hinted to also be prophetic, but since he's effectively stepped off of his path these abilties do not apply here.
•MEDICAL INFORMATION: While he has a permanent injury in his ankle (until the series confirms his limp comes from something else, will update then) that would be picked up by scans as a broken bone that didn't set properly, he walks completely normally. Some of the magic of the Dark One at work, there. If his powers were to completely vanish he would be incapable of walking long distances without the help of a cane.
•OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: He's not a man easily offended, but he gets a bit testy when people mess with kids or dogs.
IC PERMISSIONS:
•MENTAL: Can another character use mental abilities on your character? Ask me first!
•MIMICRY: Can another character imitate your character in physical appearance and/or voice? Ask me first!

•MAGIC: Can another character use magic on your character? Ask me first!
•DEBATE: Can another character pursue yours for a debate? Always!
•OTHER / NOTES: None.
