don't have the notebook on me..

but i will put a list of things that caught my eye.

so far I've made:

2 Natural Athletes
3 Ordinary People
1/2 of 2 Ghost Hunters (I can't get past the Cheezy Blade Rip-Off)
and
My currently used Character, a Psychic Medium, Private Detective.

My Girlfriend has a Latent Psychic, Psychic Investigator.


I know others have said this, but I think Ghost Hunters should get a little list of Gear to choose from, not every one with all the same stuff...

They come out too Vanilla flavored to me.

When time permits, I'm going to write some NPCs.
Currently, I'm thinking a Parapsychologist, a Ghost Hunter, a Sensitive, and perhaps a Physical Psychic.
when you get right down to it, Sentinel's right.~Uncle Servo.

Sentinel. you'll be always loved by the German Princess.~Nelly

That's twice in one day Sentinel has cleaned up my mess.~The Galactus Kid.

That's the best place to start. Otherwise, listen to Sentinel~lather

Listen to the Sentinel...he speaks truth.~ Shadyslug

Sentinel you have the biggest sig I've ever seen~Natasha

Give the Medium a second look...

I came up with this character for the Lazlo Society message board. It dosen't have much background since I'm adding to it as I go.

Michael Warren is an well educated doctor in ER medicine. He came from a good family and was raised in Seattle. Went to Harvard for medical school and Seattle for his Residency but transferred to Spokane part way through. Had his encounter with the supernatural five years ago when a patient came into the ER and was pronounced dead*. The patient later got up attacked Michael and left the hospital. In the process of trying to find out what had happened came into contact with the world of the paranormal and supernatural. It has lead to a large interest in the subject that is perused as much as possible.

* See Lazlo Society Message Board for more info under Hello thread.

Based upon a friend of mine's son...an autistic psychic, who is a savant when it comes to deciphering written and spoken languages, and truly unbelievable artistic skills but no creativity of his own...15 years old, looks to be 10 from his height and weight. Resently adopted by another player character who is playing an arcanest from 1st edition.

No, no you aren't.

But I did take an idea from it, I use ghost clips, made by a psi-mechanic friend of ours, just a magazine shaped mass of crystals and batteries that store TK Bullets, for those times when the S.C.I.G. is operating in an urban area and a regular .45 or 9mm round would be awfully noisy

Psychic Medium=Awesome Crime Scene Investigators...

Look at their abilities with the dead, and then envision them walking up and touching the body...getting a flash of information, and heading off to find the being responsible..

I'll do that.

Which books?
If you saw my "To Read..." pile, you'd be speechless. It's gotten long, and I want to re-read Turtledoves' World War series before attempting the Colonisation series.

Brian Lumley's Necroscope series...VERY BTS setting..Psychics, Vampires, an unseemly underworld...

Harry Keogh is the Necroscope, loved by the dead for his ability to be a living link between them and the world of the living...

Necromancers are hated and feared, because where Necroscopes speak to the dead, Necromancers rape the dead.

did I mention there were vampires?
