Introduction

This is a Wiki page for a modern day paranormal investigation Fate Accelerated game run on RPG.net.

PCs

Chase Clayborn

Summary of Backstory: A police officer who was shot along with a suspect by a mysterious person no one saw. The assumption was that the suspect and Clayborn had shot each other. Chase woke up later in the morgue. He had either been so close to death that he had been mistaken as dead, or he actually was dead for a while. The experience left his healt impaired, but instead of a disability pension he was hired by Stargazer Bureau.

Appearance: A bald, frail-looking man in his forties. (Is actually in his twenties but his close call with death was bad for his health, resulting in loss of hair and atrophied muscles.)

High Concept: Not really dead, not really alive

Trouble: Shouldn't be alive.

Aspect: My body is weak but my mind is strong.

Aspect: Silent Communication

Faces/Places

The Stargazer Bureau

The Stargazer Bureau started (and still has an arm in) as an entertainment “news” organization sponsored by the government as a means of distributing and controlling the flow of information regarding paranormal incidents that grew increasingly frequent in the past decade.

Today, the Stargazer Bureau is a highly sophisticated organization with some of the best tools in the world available to them. They have grown increasingly powerful in recent years and have worked their way into the government that created them.

As in its start, though, the Stargazer Bureau has remained an impulsive organization. Lots of tax dollars go into investigating bogus claims of the paranormal. But there is no paranormal incident that the Bureau shys away from and no paranormal beastie they're not willing to confront.

The Bureau's symbol, and the symbol its Agents carry as a badge, is an upright five-pointed star with a single eye in the center.

Murrow

The director of the Bureau.
