OPT-IN/OUT
Yeko is a nine-tailed fox, which comes with a bunch of fun abilities, but especially trickery, illusions and psychic power. When speaking to someone, she may try to manipulate your character, which includes convincing them of a fact/making her lies believable/coaxing information and secrets out. This means she can be as trusty as your best friend or your worst enemy.
For illusions (only available as a fox), they can be indistinguishable from reality. This can reach levels of psychological warfare, and includes but is not limited to: simulations of all kinds, reality distortion (ie. creating a false world around someone when they're actually eating breakfast), and projected images that can be handled. The more she knows someone, the more she can use against them (or for them). Basically, she can do a lot of harm if she wanted, turn characters against each other, influence someone's state of mind and cause hallucinations, etc.
Illusions are rooted in perception and she's not really altering time or space (not allowed in Saltburnt!). They can't do harm unless the target's body truly believes they are being harmed.
She has an extraordinary amount of psychic power when she's in her fox form. This can get OP, but her powers are more limited in Salt. She can combine this power with her illusions, but mostly would be using them to sense others (magical or mundane), detect lies, telepathically communicate, astral travel, and a bunch more that if it comes up I'll communicate OOCly (I'm tired). Her telepathy can reach as far as psychically influencing another character's decision, their memories, etc. Think Jean Grey from X-Men.

Character name & journal: wanda maximoff /
Opt-in or opt-out?: opt-in
Can Yeko influence your character?: yes, i'm open to it! as a telepath, wanda has some barriers to influence, but that doesn't mean these are foolproof :)
Can Yeko use her powers of illusion on your character?: wanda also has a magical background and illusion-casting abilities of her own, so it might not take her long to figure out that yeko has cast one, but i'm definitely here for this.

Character name & journal: Yelena Belova
Opt-in or opt-out?: Opt-in
Can Yeko influence your character?: Yes, as I understand it this is just external manipulation? If it's telepathic/mental then it will lead to negative CR from Yelena if/when she discovers what's up.
Can Yeko use her powers of illusion on your character?: Yes, they can't be worse than her man's 😪

Can Yeko influence your character?: Yes but she wouldn't because they're friends, right? ...right?
Can Yeko use her powers of illusion on your character?: Yes, she's somewhat a medium so might get a hinting of something being off sooner than others.

Character name & journal: Ptolemais
Opt-in or opt-out?: Opt-in
Can Yeko influence your character?: Her mind is weak and susceptible to influence ok she's only human and has swiss cheese brain
Can Yeko use her powers of illusion on your character?: Absolutely and I think that she should
Can she use her psychic abilities on your character?: Yeko can do whatever she wants forever
What memories or common thoughts might she pick up?: Feel free to pick up that Ptolemais's name used to be Thérèse before she changed it if that makes things chaotic and fun. She'll probably get a sense of her past childhood trauma too <- deets are here, warning for near-fatal injury to a minor

Character name & journal: sam carpenter (
Opt-in or opt-out?: opt-in!
Can Yeko influence your character?: both are human so there shouldn't be an issue with either! though they'll be less than happy about it, especially depending on what's done.
Can Yeko use her powers of illusion on your character?: yes!
Can she use her psychic abilities on your character?: this is fine with me though again, they probably won't be happy.
What memories or common thoughts might she pick up?: (cw: violence, murder, suicide ideation) anything seen in their respective canons is game, jackie's working especially hard to keep her mind closed off regarding what she knows about the other yellowjackets and their time in the wilderness and the fact that a lot of the time she thinks it might be better for them that she died, actually. the fact that sam tries to stay busy whenever she can to avoid thinking too hard about certain things is also pretty evident.

Character name & journal: jessica jones (
Opt-in or opt-out?: opt in!
Can Yeko influence your character?: it may not work as well or at all on jessica (due to her having developed an immunity to a form of mind control) or she may be able to recognize it; either way she'll be furious when she realizes what's happening. it's likely to work on max short-term but she's been able to recognize that a similar sort of ability's been used on her in the past (about 24 hours later if memory serves).
Can Yeko use her powers of illusion on your character?: no barriers against this for either!
Can she use her psychic abilities on your character?: yes with the caveat that neither will be happy about it, especially jessica.
What memories or common thoughts might she pick up?: anything within their canons and canonpoints is fair game! (jessica comes from post-season 2, episode one of her show, max comes from post-series.)
