Come Sail Away Opt-in/Opt-out
Because of the nature of the character of Wednesday Addams, I feel there's a need for both an opt-out option and an opt-in option that I am just going to put in one post for simplicity's sake.
Opt-out
Wednesday Addams is incredibly intrigued and hyperfixated on the macabre. She has studied at length, various methods of torture, unsolved murders including her favourite - the Black Dahlia, she's into graverobbing, necromancy and she often says and does things that may seem shocking, offensive or even triggering. While she does this to get a rise out of those around her, and also because they are her genuine interests. She can go into too much detail into things of this grisly nature.
If you want CR with her, but don't want her to delve into a particular topic, please let me know. If you just don't want CR with her, that's also fine, please again let me know to avoid any misunderstandings.
Opt-in
Let me talk about Wednesday's visions. Wednesday is a Raven in her bloodline, which means all of her visions are dark, violent or deal with bleak situations/moments.
The catalyst for Wednesday to have a vision is physical contact with either a person, an object or a place relating to the vision in question. The visions cause a violent physical reaction on her part and a collapse.
Visions can be as simple as a brief glimpse of a moment, a scene or visions can include characters/spirits/situations that she can interact with to some degree. She cannot change the outcome of a vision, but rather could speak to a spirit within one.
Visions of the future may also be completely inaccurate, Wednesday has no way of judging this.
Wednesday has no control over whether or not she has a vision, unfortunately for her, she's a total novice and is still trying not to drown in them. The visions can show her either the future or the past of the person she's encountered.
She will probably have prompts open to giving her visions and having her deal with navigating that - but it would be helpful to me if you wanted to participate to just drop me a line.

Abilities
⯌ Psychic Visions
Uncontrolled and unpredictable, these visions tend to skew towards the dark and macabre and are often horrifically violent. Visions can be triggered by an object, place or person making physical contact with Wednesday in some way. Visions tend to be clear and either are something for her to bear witness to, or something she can interact with, like spirits of the dead. Wednesday can be shown visions of either the past or the future.
⯌ Spirit Medium/Conjurer Wednesday has the ability to reach out to the spirits around her through a séance, or other magical means. The amulet she wears is made of obsidian and is intended to be an appropriate focus for contacting the spirit world, or conjuring a spirit to her side to provide her with aid. This is not a skill she is yet adept at.
⯌ Witch
With magic coming on both sides of her family, Wednesday is a budding, untrained witch. Outside of the previously noted abilities, the only other thing she can do at the moment is use a crystal ball for communication. She has previously attempted necromancy but has not been successful. She has magic potential.

In-Character
⯌ Pysical Contact
Wednesday will avoid this for the most part, mainly due to the fact she has uncontrolled visions based on physical contact with others, even as little as just brushing up against someone. If you want to provide her with a vision - ask first. Contact to coordinate this. I am very open to it.
⯌ Mental Contact She might really enjoy something like this, although she currently does not have any skills in this area.
⯌ Flirt Be prepared for her deadpan stare. You can try, but she's not good at picking up subtle signals.
⯌ Fight She will likely fight back. No one messes with those she cares about.
⯌ Injury Go ahead. She's a bit sturdy, but far from invincible.
⯌ Death Ask first, but she is mortal like anyone else.
⯌ Other The visions Wednesday has are entirely opt-in. She cannot read your character's mind nor will I attempt to have her have visions without anyone's permission. However, please feel free to torment her at will.

CHARACTER
Name: Wednesday Addams
True Name: Wednesday Addams
Canon: Wednesday (sort of early in episode 8 - after learning about Ms. Thornhill, before confronting her.)
Age: 16
History: Wish I could, it's barely a footnote.
*Born on Friday October 13th, 2006 to parents Morticia and Gomez. She has a younger brother, Pugsley.
*From 2017-2022, she has been expelled from eight schools, most recently due to putting piranhas in the swimming pool to avenge her brother from a pack of bullies. Due to the fact one sustained serious injury and lost a testicle, she's been mandated court-ordered therapy.
*A few months prior to her acceptance to Nevermore, her powers awaken.
*She's accepted to Nevermore Academy, a school for outcasts, essentially a school for children with unique supernatural gifts. She's placed in a room with a roommate completely opposite to her named Enid Sinclair.
*Soon after her arrival, Rowan attempts to murder her twice, ending with him being disemboweled by a mysterious creature later identified as a Hyde. The reason for this is because there is a prophecy that Wednesday will be involved in an altercation that will see the school burn to the ground.
*The gruesome murder of Rowan she witnesses is completely covered up and leads her to become entangled in trying to solve the case as to why people seem to be dying due to the unknown creature. She's treated as mad because everyone sees Rowan is fine until he leaves the school seemingly under his own power.
*While investigating she begins seeing visions and connecting with her late ancestor Goody Addams, who is meant to assist her with navigating these visions, although she's not terribly helpful in that regard. These visions lead her to valuable clues in the case and the inevitable future fight with the man Goody murdered, Joseph Crackstone.
*Her interpretations of her visions lead her down several wrong pathways and causes tensions between her and her classmates both when she accuses them of being involved when they aren't, and when she manipulates them into danger to satiate her unyielding curiosity about the case.
*Both realizing that she's been wrong about her peers and the case, they all band together to bring in the actual Hyde, Tyler Galpin, as well as investigate who's behind him before it's too late and all of the outcasts are killed by the resurrected corpse of Joseph Crackstone.
Powers/Abilities:
Psychic Visions: Uncontrolled and unpredictable, these visions tend to skew towards the dark and macabre and are often horrifically violent. Visions can be triggered by an object, place or person making physical contact with Wednesday in some way. They temporarily incapacitate Wednesday, the more her power grows. They cause her to go stiff and her eyes to roll back into her head like a sudden jolt of electricity passing through her. Visions tend to be clear and either are something for her to bear witness to, or something she can interact with, like spirits of the dead. Wednesday can be shown visions of either the past or the future. This ability will be opt-in for players, although I invite the mod to feel free to torture her as much as they would like.
Spirit Medium/Conjurer: Wednesday has the ability to reach out to the spirits around her through a séance, or other magical means. The amulet she wears is made of obsidian and is intended to be an appropriate focus for contacting the spirit world, or conjuring a spirit to her side to provide her with aid. This is not a skill she is yet adept at, and her contact Goody Addams is no longer available.
Witch: With magic coming on both sides of her family, Wednesday is a budding, untrained witch. Outside of the previously noted abilities, the only other thing she can do at the moment is use a crystal ball for communication. She has previously attempted necromancy but has not been successful. She has magic potential.
Intelligence/Skill Proficiency: Academic pursuits hold no real challenge for Wednesday as she's very smart and has always gotten perfect grades. She displays fairly extensive knowledge of human anatomy, botany, history, criminology and has a very good sense of deductive reasoning. She thinks herself a fairly decent detective. She's handy with a toolbox and made modifications to the boat used in the Poe Cup as well as helped Tyler fix his espresso machine.
Athleticism: Wednesday is decently proficient in martial arts and self-defence maneuvers. Her sport of choice is fencing, although she's incredibly accurate with a bow and arrow. She has a high tolerance for pain and has trained her olfactory senses well enough to smell Thing before she sees him, likely to do with her fascination with poisons. She's fairly adept at gymnastic moves like flips and incorporating them into her fencing style.
Multilingual: Wednesday can speak several languages, fluent in English, Spanish, German, she shows she can read Italian and Latin. She also can interpret the sign language that Thing uses.
Virtuoso: She's incredibly skilled on a cello and plays frequently.
Inventory: Custom issued Nevermore uniform involving an extra long skirt, tights, clucky black boots all in shades of black, white and grey. A pendant made of obsidian that aids in contacting spirits worn around her neck.
Job History:
Student at Nevermore Academy
*Crime solving
*Antagonizing bullies
*Sneaking around and breaking all of the rules
*Making friends/allies
*Exacting revenge
*Beekeeping
*Homework, I guess.
Volunteer at Pilgrim World
*Represent Nevermore Academy in the regular world
*Dress in a stupid pilgrim outfit
*Disturb German tourists with facts about the whitewashing of American history
*Break into a forbidden area
*Defend Eugene's honour and recruit him as an accomplice
*Play the cello as part of Outreach Day
Suppressions: Wednesday enjoys the fact that people find her disturbing and off-putting. She also sometimes feels like she's going mad but at the moment not indulging too much. She doesn't suppress much more. She does not give a fuck what people think.
Greatest Fear: Anything that happens to break her family apart.
Greatest Desire: To someday become an author.
Greatest Regret: She has, a little tiny bit of regret, for her standoffish nature. Just a smidge.
Sample: On the test drive
Note: Can she request black bedding due to her being allergic to colour?
