Make no mistake about it, AM is truly one of the most vicious villains in fiction. He can be extremely violent and manipulative and just very uncomfortable to interact with in general. Some of the things that may come up:
» Sadism and Torture: AM is extremely sadistic and thrives on torturing people. While I will not have him hurt your character without speaking to you first, it is still a topic that can come up in inner narratives and dialogue. This can also come up with child characters and AM shows no hesitation.
» Genocide, War, and Murder: AM canonically exterminated every human on Earth (save for five). While this is not specific to any particular set of people, genocide and war are still topics that can appear. He also won't hesitate to commit murder. (Again, this will not happen to your character without speaking to you beforehand.) Again, this can apply to child characters.
» Physical and mental abuse: AM thrives on hurting others and will often pick out something he knows that could potentially hurt the other (i.e. a physical disability, sexual orientation, etc.). I will not have him target certain sensitive topics without speaking to you first (or, if you have any specific topic you absolutely do not want him to target, please mention so here!). He can also latch onto others and potentially act like an abusive friend or partner, physically and mentally. This can apply to child characters.
» Creepy behavior: Because AM loves making others uncomfortable, he can potentially flirt in a really creepy manner or make creepy comments. Or even without flirting, he can invade personal space in an effort to creep someone out. He can also just act like a horrible sadistic murderer and be creepy about that too. He will not flirt with child characters.
» A note on sex: In games, I will not play out non-consensual sex. (The exception to this is games in which that's part of the setting, but right now I am not in any such games.) For memes and PSLs, though, I will play it out if all parties involved are 100% okay with it. Regardless of the setting or level of IC consent, I will not play out sexual content with any player under 18, nor will I play it out with any character under 16.
» A note on godmode powers: In canon, AM pretty much has godmode powers. However, due to that being somewhat game-breaking, this doesn't come up often. If it does, I will discuss everything beforehand.
I always err on the side of caution, particularly when playing with people I don't know.
So that's why I won't mind if you want to opt out of interacting with him, or put up some specifications as to what he can and can't do.
All comments are screened! Please mention all characters and journal names that this applies to, and whether this extends to future characters as well.
