Day 18: Outgunned Combo 18 - Ghost Hunters & District 77

Lottery Result: Ghost Hunters and District 77 – seems fairly obvious that we are dealing with a police ghost-hunting squad. Let’s say humanity has proven the existence of ghosts a few decades ago, and has found ways to live with those dearly departed who aren’t willing to leave yet. Laws were enacted to regulate ghost activity, and of course, the police needed a way to deal with those ghosts willing to ignore the laws, or who became criminals in other ways. The EATS – Ectoplasm Arrest Tactical Squad – is sent to deal with such intangible lawbreakers.

Melanie Arnal has recently joined EATS as a corporal in Los Angeles. Melanie has talked her way into the squad since she figured it might be an easy ride – she is both fantastic with people and very wrong about everyday work at EATS. As such, she will be in for a wild ride.

Role: The Rookie (D77)

Trope: Charming Bastard

Feats: Silver Tongue – she is very convincing

They Owe Me One – she knows a lot of people in the community.

Pep Talk – and she knows how to prop up morale when needed.

Flaw: does not take ghosts seriously

Catchphrase: "No biggie."

And a point each in Force and Streetwise, a cell phone (EATS will provide other equipment), and a sheet as finishing touches.
