So Logan has a ridiculously keen sense of smell, and I love including references to it in-play.
Rather than just assume or ask everyone I play with at the time, I'd love it if you guys gave me a heads up here.
Yep, that means I want to know what your character smells like. Please copy from the form below and toss it in a comment!


no subject
1. Is there any reason Logan wouldn't be able to pick up on your character's scent? If yes, okay cool, I'd actually love to know why!
In general, he should be able to smell her! (The only reason I could think of would be if Jean telepathically made him think he couldn't smell her but I that's just a guess.)
2. Alright, assuming #1 isn't "Yes, because-", then what's the primary scent you'd use to describe your character? If they're a chronic cigarette smoker, then they'll probably smell like an ashtray; if they bathe in cologne, tell me about how powerfully shitty that Axe spray is. No answer is a wrong answer!
At the moment, Jean doesn't wear any perfume. She would most likely smell like her shampoo (lavender and sandalwood or the Kauto equivalent) and soap because she likes to keep clean. She also spends time in the library and garden but also there's the smell that comes with all mutants because she isn't human.
3. OKAY let's get deeper. What? Yeah. Give me at least three other general scent descriptors of your character! What's under that first note? You can be as creative and outlandish as you want with this, so again, no answer is a wrong answer!
Expanding on the above, aside from what she uses to keep clean, there's whatever she uses for detergent with her clothes. Smelling like grass and dirt (possibly flowers), when she's been gardening. The smell of books on her when she's been reading or working in the library. Maybe some electronic residue if she's had her walkman on her (or still does). When she goes out and into the markets or main city, the smells will cling to her afterward. Food and spices and smell of strangers after any crowds she had to move through. Also probably gets the smell of other mutants in the house on her due to close proximity.
When it comes to the Pheonix force? Either during it or afterward would come the smell of fire, salt, and something unidentifiable. Something Logan has never been able to pinpoint and seems almost alien (cosmic infinity!!!11). I don't know if Jean using her other abilities would trigger a scent so we'll just stick to the Pheonix force having its own distinct smell.
4. Any questions/concerns/feedback I should know about? Let me know here!
None that I can think of!
