I'm sorry but in my opinion nobody really needs to ask for permission to do an LP no matter how you look at it. You're playing a game and recording it, nobody is forced to watch it. You're not taking, changing or messing with the intellectual property of the author in any way. If anything, this will GREATLY increase the fanbase for the game, in no case have I ever heard of it having negative effects and I watch dozens of LPs.
It's as Scratcher said, Seth doesn't have to take into account all the d-mods, because ALL of the d-mods are unofficial. They are fanwork. If you go to fanfiction.net there are thousands of fanfics written about games, movies, books, everything you can think of. Do you know what would happen if they asked for permission? They'd be shut down. I was DUMB DUMB DUMB when I asked Squaresoft if I could make a d-mod of Final Fantasy VII back when I was in my early teens. I got a letter back threatening legal actions -_-
There are so many references to pop material in a lot of books, TV shows, movies and games. They don't first ask for permission, because it's within the bounds of flattery. Now, putting your own spin on a character from someone else's original work is of questionable attitude... I wouldn't do it, I would keep it faithful to the original material and I would not further the character's personal story or anything. Stick to the base character and material and it should be fine
