Character Name: Will Graham
Canon: Hannibal
Starting Canonpoint: S01E01

Skills / Powers:

Empathy Disorder - Probably his most notorious trait, Will Graham has 'pure empathy'. He can assume the point of view of anybody he meets, whether they're alive or dead or even just a pile of evidence at a crime scene. The unique way his mind works also grants him such a vivid imagination, he's capable of reconstructing events, rebuilding and replaying moments in his mind, and comrehending greater abstract truths which I fully intend to use to have him navigate the psychologically abstract fuckery of Sensate Stuff.

Keen Mind - According to the prosecuting attorney at his murder trial, he's one of the most intelligent people you're likely to ever meet. This is more to do with raw brain processing power than higher education, though he is a master of criminal psychology and associated branches of psychology. He's familiar with therapy tactics, and there isn't much about the field he doesn't know.

Police Training - Will was a police officer before he left the force to join the FBI as a consulting special investigator and criminal psychology teacher at Quantico.

Fishing - It counts

Dogs - It also counts.

Flaws:

Empathy Disorder - it's as much of a weakness as it is a strength. Will can easily lose himself in the point of view of others, and he struggles with his mental health and his sanity when he doesn't have proper barriers erected.

Hyperfocused - he has a tendency to miss obvious details or clues to bigger issues when his mind is focused on one specific task.

Prickly Bitch - sometimes he really just do be.

Strings Attached - he comes with a Hannibal problem, and he's going to descend down a trail of encephalitis-induced therapy-encouraged insanity that I'm going to make you all suffer through, culminating in a full-on jail sentence arc.

Themes & Desires:

Abstract Psychological Fuckery

The transcendental nature of the bond

Trauma processing

Loneliness and the sudden lack thereof; loyalty kink

Having friends and connections for the first time in his life

Being understood For Real for the first time ever
