So, Sookie can read minds! A little blurb about the extent of her power:

Sookie was born with the power of telepathy. She gets a constant, 24/7 stream of consciousness from the people in her close vicinity. Some people are easier to read than others, and some species she cannot read at all. Vampires are blank holes for her (with a few, very brief exceptions), and shapeshifters don’t project thoughts unless they specifically focus on sending her something and otherwise will just project their current emotional tenor. She is unable to shut off the flow of thoughts, but with concentration she can erect a “wall” between her brain and everyone else's at the expense of some brainpower.

Additionally, Sookie is able to perceive the true nature of supernatural beings, as a supernatural being herself. Glamours, compulsion, etc. do not work on her, and she can pick out beings regardless of efforts to remain hidden, unless serious magic is involved.


I should note, if Sookie is able to hear someone's thoughts, she doesn't go sharing them. They aren't hers in the first place, and unless there's someone in danger she'll keep it to herself.

Can Sookie hear your character's thoughts?: not really. there are three separate consciousnesses sharing that one mindscape, so they have good mental defences. I generally go with telepaths being able to get the general tone of their thoughts, but nothing concrete since it would be much like trying to listen to three radio stations at once, if that makes any sense? If that doesn't work for you just let me know and i'm willing to discuss whatever!
Is Sookie able to perceive the true nature of your character?: If being a shapeshifter in-game counts, then sure!
