Below, you’ll find the step by step guide to making a character. You’ll see how to increase your three stats, gain gadgets and all that good stuff.

Team Building
After that, we’ll need to work out what kind of crew we have on our hands. Each person can roll on each table, and we can choose whichever sounds the most inspiring.

Or, each person rolls on one table. First come, first serve!

A Note On Art
Art does a lot to communicate the tone of the game. As you saw in the Interest Check, the art is presented in a kind of cartoon fashion.
https://i.imgur.com/jStJP4o.jpegI think it will be hard to find character art that really clicks in a style like that. We aren’t going for broody Call of Cthulhu or anything like that! I’ll try to stick to an art style similar to the below. Realistic, but not hyper-realistic!

There’s an easy-to-miss section on the ‘How to Make A Character’ image.

Each of you ‘has a personalized jumpsuit, a Proton Pack with connected Particle Thrower, and a Ghost Trap’ in addition to the gadgets you rolled!

Regarding the team name, I rolled 4 and 5 so we get to choose:

4) Ethereal or Hex or 5) Supernatural or Ectoplasm
4) Squad or Professional 5) Solutions or Be Gone

I kind of like Ethereal Squad, Ectoplasm Solutions or Supernatural Be gone

But...

As this is OUR team, I dont want to choose this alone.
And other alternatives sound cool too.

What do you like/want?

Video games is repeated as Hobby background, would be ok if I reroll that one? So we can have a different tool between players :)

Yep! Absolutely feel free to change your roll if you have something in mind that you like!
Mar 20, 2025 4:07 am
Great! I'll let the dice choose again and fingers crossed I dont get a repeated background again :p

Just need a character image for A.J and it’s all good on your end!

It might be good for everyone to share their character art and a short bio here, just so everyone knows what’s what!

I'll try to do it late tonight when I'm at my PC. May just collapse after work!

Dr. Niles Hammond, warm videogame-playing professor of parapsychology and the paranormal. He used to be a skeptic of paranormal things until a personal experience changed the course of his life. He is easygoing and plays along with any insults directed at his field of work because he too knows what it's like to be a nonbeliever.

My character is AJ Parker, a dreamer and chef student, that helps in a local shelter kitchen, and in a local orphanage.
She has heard many stories from the kids and seen many strange things moving by bus in the city suburbs, that made her curious at first and later a fan of paranormal. Her frying pan has knocked out more than one ghost already!

ABBY DE STAËL
https://i.imgur.com/ReKXghG.jpeg
Meet Abby de Staël. She’s a bird-watcher. She’s a trash collector. She likes collecting trash in rich neighborhoods because the houses are far apart, and she can hang onto the back of the truck and watch the birds.

And it may not seem like the best career for a pretty smart gal, but look at those abs!

https://i.imgur.com/dF9rIc0.jpeg

R. Schoolgirl: "Omigawwwd!"

L. Schoolgirl: "Legendary. Abs."

Abby: "Stay in school, kids. But bring lunch from home. School food makes ya soft."

Both Schoolgirls: Swoon!


As you can see, Abby likes to keep her jumpsuit unzipped to display those legendary abs. It’s no ordinary jumpsuit though. It’s made from a special synthetic scientifically proven to not rip when the wearer leaps through a closed window. It also protects the wearer herself when she pulls such crazy stunts, or so Abby hopes.

Abby’s favorite action hero is Ellen Ripley from Aliens, who looked pretty badass duct-taping guns to each other. To be half as cool as her onscreen idol, Abby taped a Slime-Thrower to her Particle-Thrower.

She has a camera so she can take selfies with birds in the background. Or ghosts. Bonus if it’s the ghost of a bird.

And she has a garbage can. Hey, sometimes people throw away good stuff…?
