Gabriel can see peoples’ souls when he looks at them. It’s not an ability he can turn off, but it's not just a straight 'look and see everything' kind of ability either. Basically, souls have layers and some people might have the skill or abilities to block his sight. In addition, the splintering of peoples' souls into daemons might make it hard for him to see things--like a heat-wave on a road.
Please do reply to this again if something significant enough happens to your character to change the tenor of their soul.
Character name: [Nuff said!]
Are you comfortable with Gabriel seeing your character's soul? [Gabriel will actively look at peoples' souls, because that's how he comes to his judgements. However, if you would rather he not have that ability, please let me know and we'll work out either something to do with your character which might block his Sight (eg, warding), or we'll say that the difference in reality-metaphysics has made it too hard for him to look at them.]
What extremely important memories/aspects of personality/powers might he see? [Borrowing from Flah here: The stuff that's buried deepest are things that people would try to hide no matter what, no matter who. Things in the middle might be stuff your character isn't really comfortable sharing with a complete strange, but might share with a friend. Stuff on the surface would be emotions felt presently, powers that are active right now, or memories that are so strong they just immediately pop out.]
Does your character have any powers or devices which might muddy the waters further/prevent Gabriel from seeing much at all? [Things like wards, glamours, magic, or simply having enough strength of will or skill at lying to consciously hide their truths.]
Anything else? [Anything else? Update?]

Are you comfortable with Gabriel seeing your character's soul? Yep.
What extremely important memories/aspects of personality/powers might he see? Deeply buried are her issues with trust, the John stuff (aka her fiance turned into Jack the Ripper), etc. She does. not. talk. about. this, even with James. I don't care if he sees that, but if you want to use it, talk to me first. I'm usually pretty open, but if it's done the wrong way, it will break her. There's not really a lot of middle stuff, as she's a Victorian woman and there's societal expectations to think about here, but the one important thing would be her longevity and the Source Blood. Surface thoughts: how much she loves James, but how afraid she is of a serious relationship.

Anything else? Helen has about a million and one issues. Basically, anything I give in brackets is fair game to be used. I just like a heads up if it's John-related!
