George Bailey is from a world where Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, Doctor Who and pretty much any franchise you can think of exists as a fictional property. There are constant references to these things in canon, not necessarily always from George, but he's best friends with a sci-fi nerd so a lot of that has leeched into his brain.
While George is not AS likely to make these references aloud, I'd still like to lay it out there that more than likely George knows about your character's franchise. Comic Books, movies, and television especially. However, there is a catch. For him, the world ended in 2009, so anything created after summer 2009 is probably not something he's going to recognize.
I can also work around this if need be and will personally respect any wish to not have your character blind-sided by this knowledge.
[Spoilers]
I realize a lot of people have not read this series. So, if you get interested and would prefer not to have aspects spoiled...let me know.
[Etc.]
Triggers: None.
Fourth-walling: I am an equal opportunity fourth waller. If you think Ex-Heroes should be something to throw back at George...go for it. He already thinks his life is pretty insane given that he's a superhero who fights zombies on a daily basis.
Romantic/Sexual Relations: Doubtful, he's in a pretty serious relationship with Karen.
Injure/Kill: Extremely difficult given his powers. He's invulnerable and super strong. However, it's not IMPOSSIBLE. He's been "bitten" twice by a demon-like creature and a fight against a Super-Soldier left him bruised. We'll just need to discuss power levels.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: George is not immune to mental attacks however. He has a strong will, as stated in canon, but he has been fooled by a person with psychic abilities twice (though was able to fight it off in a way both times...it took a LONG while though).
Threadjacking/Backtagging/Etc: I enjoy all of this and welcome it.
