Mindreading Permissions for Forest Covered
Here's the deal about her mind reading. Darja here is an involuntary mindreader. I can understand not everyone might want to deal with that. If so you have three options.
1. For whatever reason it doesn't work on your character. Maybe they have a way to block it already, or maybe it just doesn't work. Maybe your character's resistant for whatever reason or her power's just flaky on them. Her power's basically less reliable in the game. Please also specify whether she'd be able to sense your location by your mind--usually she can do that even if someone's blocking her, but it can work differently here.
2. For whatever reason she just doesn't pick up on certain thoughts. This is for if you're okay with her reading your character's thoughts in general but have specific secrets you don't want her to pick up on. Note that she generally doesn't blabber to others about what she picks up, but certain things, like if your character's got a villainous plot, can be Big Deals.
3. You can just opt out of having her interact with your character in-person. Network posts would be okay as she can't read people's minds over the network.
I'd appreciate it if you could comment here on whether you're okay with having her read your character(s)'s thoughts and if not, the specifics of the opt-out you're using. Please include character names and journals. If your character isn't already on here, I'll be asking permission before I tag them.

I think talking on the network is just fine, especially if mindreading isn't something she can do over the network.
But yes! That sounds good. Let's play it by ear. CHARGE BLINDLY IN and then work out the details as we go :)

And, yeah, basically her mindreading has a range of about room-length (longer if she stretched it out but she rarely if ever does that). So there generally won't be mindreading over the network unless you happened to be nearby to her at the time.
