GHOST HUNT (the Prequel)

Who: YOU
Where: THE GAME TOWER
When: NOW!!!

[You arrive to the game tower where today, the atmosphere seems to be quite s~p~o~o~k~y. Fog seems to cover the entire floor area and any visible area of the tower is covered by things like (fake) spiderwebs and also (fake) spiders hanging around in (fake) trees.

It would probably feel a little more spookier if it wasn't for the fact that music is blaring throughout the tower. Someone is a host today, but it's impossible to tell whom considering they're covered in a white sheet with holes cut out for eyes.

Until they talk anyway.]

I GOT A ★~★~PROMOTION~★~★

To host the greatest haunted house party that you can imagine!! But w-w-w-wait, haunted houses are s-scary! I don't wanna make you guys get too scared so we'll start small . . .

Small . . . tiny . . . miniscule . . .

It's still gonna be dangerous though!! Ghosts are PRETTY uncontrollable, ya know~? I've seen SAWoleen XVI, I know how it goes!!

Welcome to Ghost Hunt where everyone must try to determine what type ghost is haunting your room. To determine that, you must use Ghost Equipment on various parts of the room to find Ghost Evidence.

However, as you explore the room and use these objects, you'll find that your sanity will go lower. This is both a good and bad thing! The lower your sanity, the more likely you'll get ghost interactions and will be able to find evidence easier. However, you are most likely to experience hunts as well.

Hunts are essentially where ghosts will come and try to "kill" you, and you'll have to hide and hope they don't find you.

WHAT YOU GOTTA DO
⬥ For each room, there is a set pre-determined ghost that you must identify by finding the pre-set evidence. You can look through the ghost list to see which evidence goes where.
⬥ For each round, each player of a room must perform an interaction on an object in the room. You CAN choose to skip interactions, but each person who skips will cause the sanity to drop fairly significantly.
⬥ Interaction success is based off of dice roll chance. The lower the sanity, the better success rate you'll have.
⬥ Each interaction = lowers 2% of team sanity. Skipping = lowers 10% of team sanity per person who skips.
⬥ Sanity is not individual so everyone's interactions affect one single TEAM sanity score.

Things to Note - Ghost Actions
⬥ Each round, ghost can do one of three things:

⬩ Ghost Interactions - These are just tiny annoying things that lets you know a ghost is around. They happen more frequently when your sanity is lower but they can start at 100% sanity.
⬩ Ghost Events - These start happening when sanity reaches 80% or lower. These are fairly dangerous events where you can get injured for each successful ghost event. The lower the sanity, the more likely these will happen (and the more dangerous).
⬩ Ghost Hunts - These can start happening around when your sanity hits 60% or lower. These are extremely dangerous events where you can "die". To survive, you will roll 1d[sanity] and have to beat the ghost score of 1d40. Only one person can "die" per hunt. If you die, you can input your guess at that time based on whatever evidence you had found and still have the chance to win.

⬥ When you are confident you know what type of ghost it is (or feel like taking a giant risk), you can guess which ghost you're dealing with. You can do this at any point, you do not need to have evidence to do so. If you guess right, you go right to endgame. However, if you guess wrong, a hunt will begin (and the chances of survival are lower than your sanity level). If you happen to survive, you can keep going and guess again.

To win:
Discover the Ghost Type correctly

Bonus:
Discover the ghost type with the least amount of individual sanity drain

Flashlight - A tool to help illuminate the room. Flash it in places to find unexplainable shadows.
Salt - Placing it in locations can help you find traces of ghost foot prints or any other similar interaction.
EMF Reader - To help detect electromagnetic fields in the air. If it hits level 5, it is guaranteed that a ghost is nearby.
Voicebox - A device where you use radio frequencies to get them to answer your questions
Thermometer - A device for you to detect temperatures, if it's freezing (0 degree celsius or lower), a ghost is nearby.
UV Flashlight - Use this to find fingerprints (and otherprints?) of the ghost.
Camera - Look through the camera screen to detect ghost orbs floating about.
Blank Journal - Leaving it open in places where ghosts happen to be means possibly finding writing.

Ghost Type - Evidence Types
Description (all for flavor)

Red - Salt, Thermometer, Blank Journal
An elegant woman who often preferred to be alone. If you ever get a chance to get a glimpse of her, you'll see rope burns around her neck. Who was responsible for that?

Wine - Salt, Voicebox, Thermometer
A criminal who was presumably caught by the police, based on the handcuff marks around his wrists. But if that's the case, why did they never make it to the prison?

Holo - EMF, Voicebox, Camera
Someone who had great dreams of creating something magnificent until someone decided they didn't need them anymore. You can still see the anguish in their face even after that explosion blew it off.

Flower - Flashlight, Salt, Camera
After they were buried, their skin rotted away. Their eyes also rotted away. Still, their bones remain and so does the smell. They hope to remind you what you've forgotten.

Chalk - Flashlight, UV Light, Blank Journal
They were fairly young when they died. They held endless trust in their heart, too. Not anymore however. Not anymore.

Spike - EMF, UV Light, Blank Journal
Simply put, if you get into a fight, try not to lose. You don't know if the party will stop even if you can't fight back anymore.

Knight - EMF, Voicebox, Blank Journal
Their body was still standing when they died. Even though the flesh of their body is no longer, they still stand, their job to protect still not over. They failed last time, but not this time.

Hero - Flashlight, UV Light, Camera
He just wanted to find a reason to be proud of himself. Who would have known that no one was left in that fire but himself? Why did no one tell him?

Magic - Flashlight, Salt, UV Light
She didn't believe in magic. Maybe if she did, she wouldn't have been the sacrifice that day. Maybe it would have saved her. But then it would have been her who held the stake in her hand.

Patch - EMF, Voicebox, Thermometer
Sometimes they wonder why they were cursed when they just wanted to help people. They can't get sick. They can't. There's still so many more people to help. They just have to ignore the bleeding and keep going.

Star - Salt, Thermometer, Camera
She looked up into the night sky and wished upon a star. She wished they would stop taking that knife into her chest, but wishes don't always come true.

Tiger - EMF, Camera, Blank Journal
Everyone said that only a wild animal could have ripped him apart like that so they just assumed that was what had happened. It wasn't.

Is this the dreaded murder house I hear so much about...

It's not like the one I was in, at least.

[ Why ghosts... already moving away from the walls and fake spiders and fake webs, he never knows what to expect from this place. ]

I-It cannot already be time for Halloween?

Murder house...?

[ Nervous energy ]

Maybe it's just a minigame version.

Well, everyone constantly warns me about 'the house with the ghosts', so I was wondering...

Wouldn't surprise me if it was.

[Fun fact, some people will be coming out with dead bodies (that seem more like weird statues than dead bodies?).

And ghosts of said bodies will be exiting as well. Ghosts can interact with one another, talk, touch, etc. but they cannot interact with the "living". However, they can pick up items. And throw them.

At people.

To communicate.]

[ WAS that the haunted house everyone is always fussing about ]

[Presumably his corpse is being carried by someone]

[He is very much not attached to that corpse, though, and is heading into endgame on his own, invisible to everyone except for other ghosts]

[Walking out unharmed, although probably keeping an eye on their group member who was less fortunate.]

[He is safe and sound and looking around for the damages, trying to get a mental tally of injured and dead as people filter in.]

[Curled up with this corpse, arms around her knees]

[...sits down next to her, quiet]
