Toby's particular breed of fae have a few nifty sensory abilities, so I need some quick input.

1) She can detect the species (singular or plural) that make up someone's bloodline. This doesn't let her identify a specific individual, unless that individual's the only one of their kind, or give her a label for something she's never encountered before (she could tell that two members of species Unknown X are both Unknown X, but not that "Unknown X" is, say, waheela if she's never been told what a waheela is), but it does bypass illusions and most forms of shapeshifting.

2) She can smell an individual's magic. This does let her identify a specific person (or their spells), as everyone's magic has a unique scent that can't be faked or copied. Magical signatures are typically made up of two components. One of these is almost always plant-based, the other can be pretty much anything (metals, types of smoke, and precipitation are some of the more common canon examples, but there's no real limit).

<b>What is your character?</b> (Note: if you don't want anyone noticing that your character isn't human - or whatever they appear to be - let me know, and we'll handwave that they're undetectable by virtue of panfandom not being canon.) <b>What does your character's magic smell like?</b> (If you don't have a preference and want me to just make something up if it's applicable, let me know. If your character doesn't currently have magic, but you want to give them a signature now in case they learn some in game, that is awesome.)

What is your character? Amanda is human. The Roadrash Kid is a geist, a ghost/death spirit hybrid. The two of them are symbiotically bonded on a spiritual level; unless they're intentionally invoking certain abilities, the major physical sign of this is trace amounts of ectoplasm in Amanda's bloodstream.

What does your character's magic smell like? Amanda's abilities smell of hot rubber and rainwater, with an undercurrent of gasoline from Roadrash.
