The Haunting of Emily

@Kenshi
I know the psychic position is taken. The idea was more that Gigi doesn't even know she is at all psychic and is pretty much 100% a naturalist. She definitely doesn't believe in anything supernatural at all. Although, I can drop it if that won't fit it was more something that could be used in the narrative instead of anything she'd even believe in and even if she saw a ghost she'd likely chalk it up (at least for a while) as her imagination or that she drank too much coffee or she's having an acid flashback from that last EDM show she went to.

The Haunting of Emily

Gigi

Name: Ji-su (Gigi) Alexander
Age: 20-30 23
Gender: Female

Occupation in the group: Tech/Engineer
Fears: Confined spaces, being alone

Bio: Gigi was five when she was travelling to California for a vacation with her parents. In a cab to the hotel was the accident, three dead and Gigi in a coma for several months. With no next of kin, though, she had no place to go when she recovered. Thankfully, one of the nurses and his husband did all the paperwork and adopted her. Raised the rest of her life in LA with a loving couple and plenty of pets and enough resources to indulge in her scientific interests. She was the student who won all the science fairs and eventually attended Caltech For both her BS and MS in electrical engineering.

Currently she's taken a job because it paid well for a short amount of work. Being pretty much a solid nonbeliever in the supernatural made her figure this would just be an easy money type job. Especially since she's supposed to be headed to do some doctorate work at MIT and having some extra cash would be nice.

Looks: Gigi is 5'5" and 110lb. She keeps her hair longish and usually in the brown family. She dresses nicely, favoring layers and a more feminine look pretty much all the time. Clothes really are one of her guilty pleasures, something her fathers lavished on her as she grew up. She wears earrings and a little jewelry most of the time, favoring things that match her outfit. Most of her pieces are from local artisans. She is usually flawlessly made up except when she's deep in school work and can't be bothered.

Other information: Gigi is both a complete non-believer and is quite psychic. She always passes it off as her imagination but when she nearly died at five it changed her in some ways that she prefers to ignore.

The Haunting of Emily

I'm working up a character now.

Justice League: AMONG US

Mine is also an original:

Tessa

Player Name: CalicoNextDoor

Primary Character: Star Sapphire

Secret Identity: Teresa (Tessa) Torres (not necessarily secret but it is now since she's brand new)

Age: 22

Usual Base of Operations: Coast City

Day Job:
Seeking an MFA in Visual Arts

Powers:
Star Sapphire Ring

Weaknesses:
Ring must be charged.

General dangers of violet energy

Skills:
Visual Artist
Museum skills
A decent understanding of science

Appearance:
Tessa is an attractive young woman who favors artsy sorts of clothing. She can usually be seen with some sort of stains on her fingers if she hasn't had a chance to scrub.



BRIEF Bio:
Tessa was born in the Coast City suburbs, her parents were both in the sciences. A professor of biology and a chemist. She was raised steeped in it. A microscope for her fifth birthday level of science family. Her brother took to it like water, she always preferred drawing pictures of the things they saw to getting into the details. Not that she didn't absorb plenty, and it did make its way into her artwork later.

In high school she went to a STEAM school, for her it was an emphasis on the arts. And that was where she started street art. Some people might call it tagging but she called it art. It was college, though, that she started to get commissions for murals. That was where she met the love of her life, at least she thought it was. A sculptor in all sorts of different mediums. They even decided to go to grad school together.

Out one night, Alex was just sitting around and watching Tessa do her work with she heard it. A car above slammed into the guard rail which knocked a piece of concrete off crushing Tessa's beloved. The scream, the strength of her emotional reaction must have reached out into the cosmos because the ring came to her in that moment.

Supporting Characters:
Andrea Starling (art mentor)
Sandra Torres (Mother)
Tomas Torres (father)
Timothy Torres (Younger Brother)

Secondary Character:
N/A

Additional Notes:
She only recently got her ring and is still learning.

Hi. Are you still looking for additional players?

The Haunting of Emily

Oh, I have an idea for a techie type who happens to actually be psychically sensitive but doesn't believe in any of it and it only here to show there's no such thing as ghosts.

I would be interested in more info about the Astral Nexus idea.

The Haunting of Emily

I could be into this. Any particular kinds of characters you're thinking of for the Ghost Hunters.

And now I'm thinking of the two guys with the ghost hunting club in Bring It On Ghost (aka Hey Ghost, Let's Fight).

Hello

Thanks.

A bit all over. I like sci-fi and fantasy. Some horror, some slice of life. Really anything that has a good story hook.

Hello

Hi. Just joined up and looking through things. Looking forward to being part of an active community.
