OOC PREFERENCES:
CONTACT METHOD: Plurk ([plurk.com profile] goodhotcocoa) or Discord (goodhotcocoa#2567)
THREAD-JACKING: I don't mind, within reason! If it looks like a serious conversation's going on maybe ask first, but otherwise yeah, go for it!
FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: Absolutely, I came here knowing my canonmates would be a sledgehammer to Stan's fourth wall the second he got here.
BACKTAGGING: Absolutely!
AVOIDED TOPICS: Nothing that I can think of off the top of my head.
PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: She/her!

IC CHARACTERISTICS:
CURRENT CANON POINT: Post-canon
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Identical to [personal profile] mothmansplaining, except that he has five fingers instead of six! There are absolutely other differences between them though - for one thing, Stan isn't in as good shape as Ford and looks more like he's been skipping leg day. Most of the difference is in how they carry themselves and what they wear, but if they were trying they could absolutely switch places and fool a good amount of you. His voice is very rough, and he sounds like he's eaten a pack of cigarettes daily for thirty years. Most of his icons are from his Mr. Mystery days, but he has a new look now - a long coat and a red beanie are usually part of it. As a new arrival he smells heavily of sea salt and the ocean, but as he goes on here it'll fade and it'll lean more towards tobacco and Old Man Cologne.
DEMEANOR: Stan can be really abrasive upon first meeting him. He's extremely blunt and has a tendency to just blurt out things without thinking too hard about them, or at least that the first impression most people get. He's a great liar, but also a great storyteller in general - he used to run tours for a tourist trap in Oregon and he'll gladly talk your ear off about it all day. He's absolutely the kind of person who would rather make jokes of things than have serious conversations about them. You absolutely do not want to fuck with his family (or at least you don't want to let him know about it). He acts tough but he's a big ol' softy with a lot of insecurity deep down. Could absolutely be accused of codependency.
ABILITIES:
  • FIGHTING: Took boxing lessons when he was a kid, and then just continued punching people for the next 50 years or so. Has a mean left hook, especially if he's got brass knuckles on him!

  • STEALING: Has been pickpocketing people since he was four years old, and has been stealing ever since. He's pretty stealthy, though not so stealthy that he doesn't get caught now and then.

  • CONNING/BUSINESS: He's spent most of his life conning people for a living. It's not quite as essential to his day-to-day, but the urge to trick people is still there when he gets bored or someone too easily makes themselves a mark. He's also a shrewd businessman, but that might not come up much in this setting.

  • LUCID DREAMING: The weird one of the bunch! He's established himself to be an extremely competent lucid dreamer in his canon - what this effectively means by Gravity Falls standards is that if some outside force enters his mind, he can manipulate his mind to hide things or to make them see what he wants them to see (within reason - symbolism often sticks around, but he's able to work with it). For example, he once tricked Bill Cipher into his head, completely cleared his mind except for one door, and consolidated his entire mindscape into a single room behind that door.

MEDICAL INFORMATION: He's not in as good shape as Ford, and has a hearing aid and dentures (that come not from old age, but from chewing his way out of the trunk of a car that one time in his very early thirties). His body is covered in old scars from various scrapes he's gotten into, but the worst is a brand on his right shoulder blade. It often sticks out if he wears anything sleeveless and can be mistaken for a tattoo, but any medical professional would know that it's a very old wound. They might even know it wasn't tended to well the first time. Then there's a whole assortment of afflictions Stan claims he has, like "money lung" and "super gout" and "Achilles' everything", but if someone actually expressed sincere medical concern about them he would immediately change his tune. The only one that might be real is Boxer's Ear (aka cauliflower ear), but even then it's not a serious condition for him. That being said, even despite not being in perfect shape, and despite how much he whines, he's pretty spry for his age! The last thing is that he's got a history of memory gun induced amnesia, and there are parts of his past that he just can't really recall anymore (things there was no photographic or video evidence of).
CABIN INFORMATION: It's an old wooden door, and the inside of the cabin looks...more like an actual boat cabin than most rooms probably do. It looks a lot like the quarters he normally shares with Ford on the Stan O'War II, but with much more space than they probably really have (especially since he's rooming there by himself).
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: None so offensive they need to be avoided!

IC PERMISSIONS:
MENTAL: Yes, but ask first - if it's something where he might feel the intrusion he might resist it (less likely with telepathy, more likely with dreams). Either way it'll probably be fun to play out!
MIMICRY: Yeah, absolutely! How he takes it will depend on what the intentions are, but go for it.
VIOLENCE: Sure! Expect him to put up a fight.
MAGIC: Yes, but ask me first - lol magic is broad, depends what's happening.
DEBATE: Sure, if they really want to.
OTHER / NOTES: Nothing else I can think of!
