Give me a character that I write or have written and I will tell you either what they look like under Harry's Sight or what a soulgaze with them would be like. Specify which one you prefer, or I'll choose. Either way is fine with me.

For the uninitiated, both concepts come from Jim Butcher's Dresden Files series. Sight or Third Eye shows people's true forms, usually in a metaphorical fashion and a soulgaze shows what that person's soul looks like, with their past, present and possible futures and innermost essences on view, unable to hide anything, usually only in a metaphorical fashion.

It doesn't need to be a supernatural character, but characters with some background and/or a decent amount of screentime are preferred so I can make some guesses as to what their essences are. Any of my OCS are welcome, too.

Ooh!!

Soulgaze of Ray Kowalski.

Ray Kowalski's soul looks like a police badge. It's slightly dinged, possibly from bullets, and scratched in places, but otherwise very well-polished and shiny. The name at the bottom has been burned away, but you can still make out 'Stanley Kowalski' underneath the newer 'Ray Vecchio' written there. If you look into the badge, you can see different reflections of various aspects in Ray's life. A flash of red serge and wolf fur. Two people dancing. Bullets being fired. Cars being driven in insane ways. A UFO. Blonde hair that matches Stella's. The side of a black GTO. Home cooked food. Overlayed over all these images, very hard to see, is a reflection of Ray himself, or rather Stanley. He looks like Ray, but less sure of himself and nerdier and not as handsome.
