The whole Urban fantasy thing?

That is MY genre. :D

Well then I expect to see something from you! And you better make it into the final pick for submissions! >:U

WRITE, YOU WHORE!

;P

So, here's a question for you about character development:

Do you prefer to tell readers what the VP character can do at the beginning, or do you like to let the abilities leak out as the story progresses? The former can put a reader to sleep with a data dump, but the latter can feel like an ass pull if you aren't careful. I've got a background, a VP character, and a plot... I'm just trying to figure out how to explain what the VP character can do without making him sound like an ass-pull, then a nerf-bat to avoid making him sound like a Gary Stue...

If you're afraid of an ass-pull, have them do a minor version of what they can do earlier on. Or a different application of the same power.
