So! Sabriel is a necromancer, as well as something of a magical generalist.
So this means that she can sense and control the undead- she can also raise them, but since she's an Abhorsen, she'd really prefer to use her powers to make them really, really dead. She will eventually get over this, but be prepared to have Sabriel Not Like your character at first, no matter how nice they are, if they're undead.
Sabriel's second thing is her more general magic, called Charter Magic! it can do pretty much all of your standard magical things- healing, offensive applications, wards, bindings, enchanting items-but that's not all- it's passed on by baptism, not birth- so other characters can potentially learn how to use it! Of course, for balances sake, they won't be able to learn more than five spells and must have an open power slot- and must post to the power update request page. Charter Magic can do a lot of things, but it does have limits. (The major ones are No Shapeshifting (Possible in canon, but Sabriel doesn't have access to that knowledge) No Teleporting and No Flight.) Also, it doesn't mix well with technology, so trying to use it to enchant guns or computers will just break them.

Character(s) name Charlie Maxwell
Is it all right for Sabriel to use magic on your character? Sure! Charlie's used to it, to a degree. I don't mind taking this on a case-by-case basis.
If your character has magical abilities, is it all right for Sabriel to sense when they're using them? Again, go right ahead.
Is your character a robot/cyborg/technopath prone to carrying around technology? Charlie is human, but he got to bring his iPhone with him from home.
If so, is it okay for Sabriel's magic to temporarily mess them/their stuff up? I'd rather nothing irreparable happen to it, but random glitches and things are fine.
