THREAD-JACKING: If it's logical, sure!
FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: No, thank you.
BACKTAGGING: Always!
AVOIDED TOPICS: In text form, no real hard 'no's that I can think of; always feel free to reach out and ask
PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: she/her

IC CHARACTERISTICS
CURRENT CANON POINT: Pretty immediately post season 4 finale/canon
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: About 5'6'', and while he's strong for his size, he's very slim and a little gangly. His skin tone would probably read as middle eastern to someone from Earth and he has short cut black hair. His eyes are a violet blue, and between that the blue tint to his hair when it's longer, that may hint as not entirely human ancestry somewhere, but it never comes up in canon! He tends to dress in bright colors, mostly orange, yellow, and green. Also notable is the set of parallel scars high on his left cheek. They come from the glancing blow of an Inquistor's doublesided lighsaber, but could easily be mistaken for claw marks.

ETA: Since the event on Coruscant, Ezra has built a new lightsaber which he almost always has with him. He occasionally wears full Jedi robes, but more commonly wear a light brown cloak in Jedi style over brighter work clothing.

DEMEANOR: Among other people, he usually makes and effort to come off cheerful and outgoing, and this is mostly accurate. He likes most people and even animals. However, he's almost always fine with being his own company as well. One on one with someone, he can flip to very quiet and introspective.
ABILITIES:
Ezra is a Force-sensitive, with some Jedi training. In theory, he could display any of the abilities that a Jedi has in canon, particularly with additional training or other precipitating events that give him insight. In his own canon, he's displayed Force enhanced speed and agility, and telekinesis strong enough to pick up a person or a fairly large rock.

He seems particularly skilled in empathy - detecting, connecting with, and influencing minds, both humanoid and animal. He's connected with a wide variety of animals, from small cats, to ray like flying creatures, to huge whale-like space voyagers. With people that he knows well, while concentrating, he's been able to detect their location down to a level on a ship or in a building from many miles away. While it took him a few tries to get the hang of the Jedi Mind Trick, he's now proficient with it. Notably, while he was dabbling with the Dark Side he was able to outright control an enemy soldier, from a significant distance away, into shooting their own squadmates and walking their vehicle over a cliff.

He's also particularly prone to vivid visions of the near future, although they can be very difficult to interpret. (Mods, def feel free to use this as you will.)

He has not shown any obvious ability to heal with the Force, yet.

Like most Jedi, he has training to use a lightsaber and has used them in real combat for several years. However, his own master was never fully trained in all the classic forms for lightsabers and it shows. Ezra can be creative and/or brutal depending on circumstances, but without some other clever advantage he is likely to be outclassed by anyone better trained. Two years into his training, Vader disarmed him in seconds.

He is also a competent, albeit not brilliant, pilot of small ships and fighters from his native galaxy, a decent gunner, and a pretty good shot with a variety of blasters.

ETA: On Coruscant, he picked up the basics of healing, and can speed some things along. He does not have the raw power or skill to do much with major injury beyond stabilize. He also continues to train in a variety of skills, including lightsaber technique, with his fellow Jedi.

MEDICAL INFORMATION: On arrival, he's sustained a blaster bolt from an pistol to the shoulder. It doesn't appear to be life-threatening, but treatment of some kind is advisable.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Ezra said not just fuck the Empire, but fuck genocide, imperialism, and appropriation. Feel free to poke those buttons, but he spent all of his canon fighting space fascists, and isn't going to stop now.
OTHER: On arrival he does not have a lightsaber. He deliberately left it on Lothal when he surrendered to Admiral Thrawn.

IC PERMISSIONS
MENTAL: Ezra is very empathic, so feel free to connect/communicate/give him impressions to react to. He may be particularly prone to influence by flooding him with thoughts and feelings. I think however, direct application of control would be difficult to force on him. If you want to try, let's discuss.
MIMICRY: Given his verbal mimicry in canon, turnabout is fair play, really.
VIOLENCE: Ezra will generally defend himself, although he may try to simply disarm or deescalate if there's an opportunity. He's been part of a rebel insurgency for 4 years, against trained soldiers, and his strength, speed, and agility can be Force enhanced. So despite his small size, against baseline humans, he's got a good chance to come out on top. Against other Force-users or super beings, his odds are much worse. His training as a Jedi is scattershot, and combat is not actually his strongest suit.
MAGIC: I would think magic could affect him, for the most part. Magic that works on perception and will, he may be able to counteract somewhat with his connection to the Force.
DEBATE: Go for it. He's a teenager with a stubborn streak though, so he might just storm off.
OTHER / NOTES: That note to the Mods on using his visions goes for other people who want to move plot along too! We should discuss OOC, but I'm game for making use of them.
