We were tipped for tuh riches by a posh boy in a pub, turns out the Vampires just wanted a spot o’ fun and the red wetness. It weren’t just luck that I lived to see you boys rushin’ the door: my Grampy Fi told me stories about monsters liken to these, kept me livin whilst the others shuffled off their mortal coils. Grampy told me lots of wonderful things to fill me nightmares...” Reuben leans forward, a gleam in his eyes: “...now I’ll be guessin that they weren’t just yarns.”

I know I'm not crazy, but I've fought a bitch that looked like a tree and tossed fire, and I've been manipulated by supernatural tricksters. I believe in elves, dwarves, eldritch powers and magick among other things. But I ain't nuts. And yea I've survived things that might kill most folks. That wasn't my imagination either. I figure you people can probably use me without taking me apart to see how I tick. I can't say as much for some of the other alphabet agencies out there. What do I mean by that? Look we both know your little tests pointed out an oddity or two. Let's just say some of the people in power that I've talked to would be more likely to want to dissect a guy rather than let him use his skills. So we got a deal? I help you with stuff, you help me stay off any radar that might get my bits and pieces removed by guys in lab coats?

Character Notes You know, I just wished for a normal life. I had a good job at the hospital, a nice house, fancy car. Everything just went upside down the day my mind opened like a pandora box after I got electrocuted by my hairdryer. Not my brightest moment I assure you. Not sure what happened but I began to hear everybody thoughts when I woke up, it felt powerful and terrifying at the same time. Thank god I was picked up eventually by the Hoffman Institute to learn how to use my gift. I think now I'm ready to hit the field and use my powers to protect the mundane and save as much lives as possible.

Dr. Song Doctor Song is a young pioneer in neuroscience, neurosurgery and various psychological conditions related to brain damage. She is passionate about the human mind in general, studying alternative medicine and techniques to cure the mind. Using her powerful psionic abilities, this gives her an edge over all her peers to understand patients conditions and diagnose the right treatment. As a prodigy, she completed her medical studies and specialties five years ahead of time, and completed her first brain surgery at the age of 22. In Seoul, she opened her own clinic at the age of 26 and started to have an international reputation with people coming from far away to get a diagnostic from her. Everything changed the day she was recruited by the Hoffman Institute, a hard choice to put behind such a promising and lucrative career on hold. She believes she can have a larger impact on humanity by becoming a secret agent and flourish her telepathic gifts.

Moving to NYC After joining the HI, Soo-ah sold her practice and relocated to New-York City. The good doctor bought a fancy townhouse in Upper East Side with the money she made in the last years and her signing bonus with the institute. She is from Seoul, so she acclimated quickly to the big city, however the culture shock was significant. Speaking English with a strong accent, she had a couple of bad experience with the locals. What she read from their mind is generally quite different from Korean. Men have dirty thoughts at all time and hope for a chance to get laid with her and women are intensively jealous, some others are simply racist and don't like Asian in that country. In any case, she became very popular in the local bars after work and made a lot of friends. She trained very hard at the institute and spent most of her free time working at the Lenox Hill Hospital about two times a week to keep operating and improve her skills.

As you know I was born Johann Goldbratt but at the time people weren't likely to watch a performer if they knew he was a Jew so I took the stage name of Goldani. As an Illusions and Escapologist I dare say I was a bit Green but obviously Berries. I looked it up, my famous 'Goldani's Cabinet' illusion is still talked about in my craft. But as you see, the Illusion worked too well. My Assistant genuinely vanished, I went in after her. I don't remember anything solid after that, like it was all a dream. I just know that went I woke up that morning it was 1926 on the morning of what was to be my big break, I went somewhere that I knew I had to Escape from, and now I'm here. Except part of me wonders if I escaped at all, or worse still if something Escaped the Cabinet with Me.

Character Notes: It started like, well if you are like me, at-all like me, you'll know what I mean: You go into a bar and it doesn't matter where you stand, or how big the note you wave in your hand, it's always the people either side of you that get served. No matter how hard you try you just can't seem to catch the barstaff's eye; they just serve everyone else. Depressing isn't it. Well it was for me anyway - the more I was ignored the more depressed I got and the more depressed I was the less I wanted to be noticed... Maybe you've been there? So, one day I got so fed up of being ignored I just walked round the bar and poured my own beer. I didn't care if I got thrown out - I just didn't care about much of anything by then. But I didn't get thrown out - no body noticed. It became a thing, and it got to where a bar didn't even have to be busy and then one day I was - I'm a photo journalist by the way - I was at a demonstration and this riot broke out and I was there in the middle of the whole thing just snapping away and everyone ignored me - more than ignored me, went round me and carried on. It was the strangest thing. Yeah I know that's was weird right but then it got even stranger. It was like even machines couldn't be bothered anymore. I forgot my pin and was like you know - how am I gonna get cash now? and the thing didn't even bother to ask. It just gave me the money - I mean I could have been anybody, it could have been anybody's card. So that was when I knew, that was when I said "Stop. This is not just me being boring - this is a THING. I looked it up - Glamour the Irish call it, so I have The Glamour - paradoxical or what? Right?" Pictures you see - I take pictures, freelance, sell them, but I can take pictures others cannot. I can see things others cannot, I can see past the glamour of others just as they can see past mine but we don't always know each other for what we are until we see that others can't. It's a club - a lonely club perhaps but a club none-the-less - and I was never in a gang at school so it's nice to be in one now. --- I'ld been taking pictures in this area for a while. It had interested me that part of Charleston, and I wondered if I might do serious piece on urban degeneration. And on this day - I had pictures of space holes and who knows what - it really kicked off. And then BOOM! I wasn't sure what to do with all the pictures - I knew the normal papers wouldn't touch them but I had contacts, there were places where folks would buy pictures that belonged in a science fiction movie or horror film; there were collectors and agencies. So after reducing the options I post them with the normal copyright and disclaimers. I was quite impressed when they found me - no really. It's not often someone comes to my front door. Even the post guy struggles with the box at the end of the drive.

Character Notes: I suppose this skill, as you people call it, has been with me since I was little, but I’ve always thought of it as more of a disability. I never graduated school because of all the flashes, the images of horrible situations. I didn’t want to see it but I saw it anyway. I spent time in institutions and the drugs they put into me seemed to calm it down for a while, but, actually, I still saw the things, I just didn’t care any more. But it was enough. They let me out. But what was a seventeen year old drop-out to do? I joined the army, fully expecting it to kill me. But I was actually pretty good at it. I channelled the anger I felt and passed Basic near the top of my class. Then I was deployed. And that was when I came to realise that the things that I had been seeing were real… they just hadn’t happened yet. But seeing them for real let me get them out of my head. It felt… good. A relief. So I started volunteering for the worst missions, getting into the most fragged up situations, all so I could get these things out of my mind. I got a reputation as a ghoul. My C.O. requested me to be transferred, and so I ended up moving from one platoon to another until my tour was up. I was all ready to sign up for a second tour when Major Farnsworth got in touch and told me to contact you.

My mother had taken me to midday mass and then to see el Señor Caído, the icon of our lord in Monserrate sanctuary in Bogota. When I fainted they said it was a dizzy spell, possibly epilepsy. But I had felt the blood of Christ within me. The next time was when my father was gunned down by the Medellin cartel. I knew the evil that walked the earth then. Hollow people - Angels of death. My fathers morality had corroded too, but this one time that was a blessing, because with his ill gotten savings that he had hid from the cartel my mother took me to america. That it was Corpus Christi where we had family seems ironic now, but you take what you can get I guess. There I tried to forget for a while. We still went to church, but I didn't feel anything for a time. I thought his presence had died with my father. I went into IT - maybe because suddenly everybody seemed to be an atheist or at best a sceptic. I was good at it. But ultimately the blood was still there protecting me, cleansing - opening my eyes to evil. I react to it, and it appears that it showed. When the institute approached me I thought it was for what I do with computers, and maybe that was part of it. But they knew. It did not seem to startle them. Most of all, they didn't make my blood boil. Means they are not evil, doesn't it?

Character Notes: The Incident It started with a party. The engineering frat threw it together for midterms, and I was pretty burnt out at that point. First one I've been to. It was alright, as parties go, enough going on for everyone to find something to get into. As far as I can remember, anyway. I've got until it ramps up proper, and then everything goes fuzzy; pretty sure somebody slipped me a mickey. After that, it's all a blur. I wasn't completely out - I have a decent tolerance for anesthetics, doctors never give me the right amount. It's a problem - so I remember bits and pieces, but I wasn't exactly coherent. There was a car, a forest, a cave, and then a bunch of blood. Like a bunch of blood. After the Institute came in and cleaned up the place, I was brought to a hospital (no lasting side effects), and given a rough explanation of what happened. Apparently I was to be a sacrifice, but they screwed up something important and exploded or were ate or something. Cults don't exactly hire for smarts, you know? Hey, I can still finish my classes, right? That's not going to be a problem? Only my parents would kill me if I dropped out just cause of a job, especially if they knew what I was actually doing. I'd really appreciate it.

In this email she outlined that while she wasn't 'thrilled' with the secrecy surrounding Institute actions, she 'respected' the actions themselves, and wanted to talk. The decision was made, with a thin majority of stakeholders, to attempt to bring her into the fold before more draconian tactics were resorted to. Two agents responded to the request for a meeting, and after navigating a few misdirections apparently set up by Ms Otter in case the other decision had been reached, contact was made. At this meeting, and at several interviews following, Ms Otter explained her interest in the Hoffman Institute was driven as an extension of her interest in fortean, or 'impossible' phenomena. While she disagrees in principle with the Institutes policy of secrecy, she agreed to abide by it until and unless such time as that policy was changed...while warning that she'd be advocating for changing it.

She was found early the next morning and brought home, but each of the following nights found her helpless to resist a beckoning that she seemed to feel in her soul. On the third day, she lay near death when the monster was slain by a posse avenging another girl. She felt it when it happened, though she only learned the details later. At first, she hoped for recovery, but soon realized that a foul poison was working its way through her. Mustering her will and every ounce of her strength, she visited a midwife accused in whispers of being a witch. The woman herself was not, but at Zella's insistence, or in pity for her desperation, directed her to where she could find a coven. Taking her as a daughter among them, they aided her in quelling the poison, though they could not heal the damage it had already done to her.

Introduction to the Institute
For nearly as long as she can remember, Zella has been a collector and curator of books both mundane and esoteric. That latter fact has, in the past, brought agents of the Hoffman Institute to her library in search of answers. Though she played coy at first, once she learned of the Institute's mission, she agreed to grant access to select agents who pleased her sensibilities. At that time, neither considered the other an ally; to the Institute, she was an uncertain resource. To her, they were worker ants doing their job in maintaining the world's order, as she was doing her job in preserving knowledge.

After the destruction of the Charleston Branch, she began to notice changes, more things skittering about in the dark spaces between days, and the like. She didn't think much of it, until an older agent came- not to peruse her library, but to speak with her. She entertained him with tea by the fire, but when he suggested that she join the Institute, she was shocked and quickly declined. After all, she was not a worker ant; she had been doing her job, even if they had been failing in theirs. Still, he left a card for her. And after he was gone, she stared at it for a long time. Slowly, she began to remember. She had been someone else once, someone with more drive, more impulse, more... initiative. She tried to push away the flashes, the memories, but over the next couple days and nights, they grew stronger. A week after his visit, she walked out of her library with his card in her hand, and followed to the address embossed on the front.

Name: Clyde Byzantiel

Archetype: Ghost Hunter Scientist
Background:
A brilliant scientist and geneticist, Clyde was gliding through life with a brilliance that was carefully manufactured. He attended Harvard, and received his masters degree relatively early in life. His parents were rich, and he was very much a "Trust fund kid", with an attitude to match. He loved to party and drink, it was a combination of luck, money, and a genuine interest in the subject that got him his degrees. And if he wasn't partying, he was at his parent's gun range. But whenever he actually hit the books, he was brilliant. Much to the chagrin of his teachers, who just wanted him out of their classes and off the campus.
It took him a long time to settle down, but once he did, he focused on his work and made a name for himself beyond just "Eccentric Billionaire's socialite child". Life kept coming up aces for Clyde.
Unfortunately, luck changes eventually. It always does. In a regress to his olden days, Clyde was driving home drunk as all hell with his wife in the passenger seat, and took a turn a lot sharper than he should have. The resulting crash was a) spectacular to watch, and b) lethal for his wife.
In another round of 'luck', Clyde made it through with only a broken arm and some scrapes. He buried his wife, and became a recluse. And that should have been that.

But he wouldn't have caught the attention of Hoffman that way, would he?
Clyde went back to drinking heavily, either pouring one back, or pouring himself into his work, until one day, he saw his wife again, floating in the bedroom. Never a believer in the occult or the extraterrestrial, this understandably freaked him straight the hell out. He wanted to just mistake it for a drunken vision, but she kept appearing when he was sober too. At their home, at his work, repeatedly. His colleagues didn't believe him, they couldn't see her. And, worse, he started seeing other spirits as well, wherever he went. He only tried to communicate with them when he was alone, as to not make people think he was crazy; but he never got a response he could understand, except from his wife. Who simply said, "Help me."
So he did what anyone would do in this day and age, and went to the internet for help. And lo did he find a motherlode on the topic, though trying to extract fact from fanciful fiction was quite a chore. He eventually got in contact with people, who knew people, who drew his attention to the Hoffman Institute.

"Well, I can't make society better if we're all eaten by supernatural creatures, can I? I guess I'll join."   Dmitri Caruso grew up in Brooklyn, a quiet kid in an abusive home. Early on in his life he escaped into his imagination and walking the streets of NYC. As he became a teenager he moved into tagging and graffiti. Arrested a few times, beat up a few times, but always pushing his art forward. He built a portfolio on his own and received a scholarship into The Pratt Institute. He left home and worked his way through Pratt as tattoo artist amongst other things. He graduated and started his career, a mix of fine art, tattoo, street art/murals, illustration work and whatever commissions would keep him afloat with his four roommates. He dated wrong men and wrong women throughout this time, choosing malfunctioning abusers, addicts, or suicidal people who needed rescue. He also would come and go from his family, trying to convince his mom to divorce his dad and leave with his siblings before they were too ****ed up to be happy. Even though, he wasn't sure he was that happy. Was he even offering anything? Really? One night, Lucy, his girlfriend at the time, hit one of her crazy jealous controlling tantrums and pulled out a gun. He tried to calm her down as she threatened to kill him for his non-existent cheating. He talked long enough to run out of the apartment, He heard the gunfire and the bullet hit the cheap plaster wall. As he hit the street he heard his name screamed. He stupidly looked up and saw Lucy leaning out the window of his apartment aiming the gun at him. Instead of shooting at him, she yelled, "Look what you did to me" and blew her brains out, slumping half in and out of the window of their apartment. He panicked and ran, ended up at a bar, drank alone, replaying, thinking, replaying. Then he remembered that text... his buddy Margrave invited him to a rave out in East New York... not too far away. Margrave had all the drugs or at least knew someone who did. Whatever he wanted. Dmitri had always been pretty tame chemically speaking, a little booze, a little weed, but even that was sporadic. But now he needed to stop the thoughts. Would the cops think he killed her? Just don't go home. He grabbed a taxi out to Flatlands and found the rave. It was a condemned church. they blacked out the windows and had hooked it up with illegal electric. Dmitri found Margrave and was introduced to some friends and he started to try things. He didn't even know half of what he had. Soon he was feeling no pain, dancing to the music that seemed to soak into his pores. Then he saw these folks, club kid types, kind of steampunk costumey, handing out drinks they were calling Faerie Nectar. It tasted good, but things started to get very weird. People started to scream, some fell over unconscious, some went nuts and started attacking other people. Dmitri felt weird...well weirder and just ran out of the rave, hallucinating. The world became unreal, he started to live in Canarsie Park, sleeping on benches, confused, cold, and alone. He came down off the drugs, but the hallucinations and strangeness never resolved. He became paranoid, arrested multiple times. Sure aliens followed him. Until one day an elderly man spoke to him. He seemed to see right into him and offered Dmitri helped. He followed the old fellow. His name was Simon Moon, a bookshop owner, a small one on Ralph Avenue in East Flatbush, 23 Skidoo Books. Dmitri didn't understand the kindness but appreciated it. Simon let him work in his bookshop, gave him a room to sleep in, and nursed him back to health. He also did strange things that helped him recover from whatever he had taken at the rave. Simon showed him qigong and yoga techniques, psychological exercises, and soon Dmitri began to feel better than he'd ever felt before. Dmitri reflected on his life, his childhood, his romances and began to understand himself. In time, Simon revealed that he was a retired or perhaps semi-retired anarchist agitator and member of the new quite defunct Justified Ancients of Mummu (JAMs). He explained about the secret societies that existed and how they all push their programming on everyone. And that the JAMs did the same thing, too harshly back in the day, very hardcore. They'd learned from the Dealy Lama and the taoist sages the path of wei wu wei. Dmitri was offered the chance to apprentice and he gladly accepted. He was taught how to harmonize himself with the universe, flow, using the least amount of energy to accomplish the most. Operate from kindness instead of harshness. Positive reprogramming could only take place in peaceful places. Dmitri became the second member of the JAMs, at least in its current incarnation. In the midst of this learning, Simon suspected the people who had spiked the rave were members of the ELF (The Erisian Liberation Front) who had become largely very very harsh in their mentality. Simon and Dmitri worked to find and reveal the nature of the ELF and direct the NYPD to them via subtle and timely action. Simon taught Dmitri more and guided more actions while at the same time Dmitri dealt with his dead girlfriend, his old life, and restarted his art career. He began to work with police (solving heinous crimes), reporters (often exposing corrupt cops/officials), and anyone doing good works according to Dmitri's values. One day, the NYPD needed help and the consulted him on a serial killer. In this work he met agents of the Hoffman Institute and together they found the symbiotic/parasitic alien that had been hopping bodies. They parted on good terms after resolving the case. A few months later, Charleston exploded, and the Hoffman Institute offered Dmitri a position. Considering what he had learned in the secret illuminated underworld, things were becoming dangerous. This would be an opportunity to help humanity and perhaps nudge the Hoffman Institute out of its addiction to hierarchical mental programming. He accepted.   Character Sheet PHYSICAL STATISTICS Str - 4 Int - 5 Agi - 4 Foc - 5 Vit - 5 Per - 4 Senses normal Action Check/Initiative 11/16/21 Action Points: 1/1 Speed 20 meters Vitality 5 Durability Track Severity Wounds Effects 1–3 [] [] [] No ill effects. 4–6 [] [] No ill effects. 7–9 [] [] –1 step penalty to all checks 10–12 [] [] –2 step penalty to all checks 13–15 [] [] –3 step penalty to all checks 16+ [] Incapacitated Action Phase Result : Non-Combat: Combat: Stellar: Excellent: Average: Marginal:

He gets it. He's with a secret institute, a hush-hush spy almost, and so that wheelchair can't just be a pair of high-tech, lightweight, cushy-padded wheels. But it is. And even still, Javan will laugh at your joke. After all, he's learned that is what people want and—this is the kicker—some of them actually are funny. Dark humor. It's always been his weakness. So, recumbent and officially retired (what do you expect, he is 68), Javan himself is a bit surprised to find himself in the Institute. Want the quick version? is how he usually begins explaining it to his curious colleagues, youngsters all. I was in international aid development. Medical tents on borders, underfunded UN hospital stations in what we called "newly emerging economies," etc. etc. Good people mostly, but after several years you grow cynical. You treat kids for diseases that shouldn't exist in our current day and age and then, to relieve the depression and pressure, you go off on a holiday with all your other global expat friends to Algeria, Lebanon, Thailand, Vietnam, wherever, and you blow what would be two-year's salary of the people you were treating on hotels, food and trifles. We called ourselves "Lords of Poverty," jokingly, of course...but it was true. So I left it all when I was about 55. My friends nodded their head and said: "Yeah, burnout, it happens." And then they booked their next vacation...and they saved a few lives. Me, I left. Traveled for two years. Ended up in Karelia and Lapland. And went back to Quakerism—yeah, that's where most of my friends thought I had truly gone of the deep end. I mean, shamanism and the likes, sure...good, new-age stuff. But I joined a small community of expats, Finns and Sami and we sat around in silence, listening for the voice of the lord. Weird, right? Sometimes, well often really, Javan stops here, assuming he has explained it all. But he hasn't. He knows that only because people have told him so. Oh, yeah, so I sat and did as we are suppose to do, right? Listen for the voice of God. We believe it is within each of us...and I believe that, but I was hearing something else. Now I would say, I was hearing something darker instead. I wrote about it on some obscure Quaker chat board...something visited by about 5 other Friends max. Two weeks later, a young man and woman were knocking at the door to my flat in Kemijarvi. Three weeks after that, I was here. And sometimes, even that wasn't enough. Oh? You wanted to know about the chair, but felt awkward asking. Yeah, I'm not lame. Rehab. I should be up and about in three weeks. Just a bad accident cross-country skiing this year. It involved a reindeer...now that's the story I should have told you!
