First things first! Since Wanda is being pulled from near the end of Age of Ultron, she may reference events that occurred during the film. This could essentially mean minor to major spoilers depending on whether or not you've seen the film. So, if you'd like to interact with Wanda but don't want any spoilers, please let me know below. I want to have fun playing Wanda, but not at the expense of other players' ability to enjoy the film.
Secondly, Wanda has several mental-based superpowers, and her ability to use them (or at least one of them) is fairly crucial to her in-character interactions. Specifically, her ability to read minds is something she makes frequent use of, if only to determine if she should trust your character. Thus, in order to play Wanda as smoothly as possible, I want to set up this permissions post to know exactly how Wanda can and will interact with everyone in the fleet. If you answer no, that is fine. Wanda is still able to interact with your character, but her behavior will respond according to whether or not she can "read" him or her.
If you say no to either category below, then Wanda's augment will essentially impede her ability to effectively read your character (like getting a static image on a TV set), and it will completely prohibit her from being able to use her manipulation abilities. Please know that Wanda would not flippantly use her manipulation power; it's more of something she'd use to subdue a threat, or at least someone she perceives as a threat.
Please also know that even if you answer yes to the questions below, I will still make sure to ask your permission and discuss details with you before actually having Wanda use her powers. One final note is that Wanda will only be able to use her powers when interacting with someone face to face; that is, she's not going to be able to read or manipulate your character via the fleet communicators.
Please feel free to comment below using the following form:
Character(s): (Who you play that is likely to interact with Wanda.)
Film Spoilers? (Have you seen the film? Or are you comfortable with events from the film being spoiled for you? Please let me know!)
Mind-reading: (Are you okay with Wanda reading the mind of your character(s)? Just answer yes or no. What information she specifically reads can be entirely up to you. Basically, this power serves more as a litmus test for Wanda, measuring how much she is willing to trust your character.)
Hallucination: (Are you okay with Wanda using her powers to cause your character(s) to hallucinate and have a vision based on their fears or regrets? Again, just answer yes or no. Specifics about what your character will see can be determined later, if Wanda actually feels the need to use this power.)

Mind-reading: Sure! Though with Riley her mind is exactly what she says so it's kind of redundant.
Hallucination: Talk to me first! I'll probably say no with Riley just because she can... very easily be breakable and l-laughs. She does have very real fears now due to the game she was in.
