The Queen Mary. A famous passenger liner. A troop transport during WWII. And the site of many hauntings. The owners of the Queen Mary, who keep the ship as a floating hotel, have hired a team of Ghost Hunters to prove, once & for all, if the ship is haunted. They are lead by Nathaniel Hawke, a British man who claims to know no fear. He says this because of the time he has spent in the Tower of London, & other famous haunted locations, such as Vlad the Impaler's Castle.

User name: Lilygirl711
Name: Kara Nielson
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Appearance: Kara
Bio: Ever since she was a little girl, Kara has been fascinated by the paranormal. While she originally went to college to study biology, two years into her studies Kara decided to change her plans. Despite her parents' wishes, she changed majors to study her true passion, parapsychology. Recently, she accepted a job working under Nathaniel Hawke. Though Kara is new at her job and a klutz, she is excited about her work.

User name: chaosdaae
Name: Avangeline (Ava) Taylor
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Appearance: Ava
Bio: Ava has known Nathaniel for a while and decided to go for the job when it was offered. She may not have any psychic powers, or huge infatuation with the paranormal, but she's a tech whiz. She's good at keeping a cool head and an open mind to what she sees.
Occupation: Technician

Ghosts
User name: Rinel_underwood
Name: Jessica Sharp
Age: 21 (Died eight years ago)
Gender: female
Appearance: Jess but slightly transparent. Most of the time, she is wearing this dress. Also, her skin is pale blue, lacking all blood or oxygen, and she usually looks like she just got out of a pool.
Bio: In life, Jessica, or Jess was rather timid and quiet. She kept her hair always back in a bun, wore glasses, kept her nose to the grindstone so to say. She never made much noise, or did anything dangerous. She was a good student and citizen, went to a good college in California. She believed that if she did well and never took risks, she would some day reap her rewards. One Y2K New Years Eve party, though, that all went in the gutter. She'd been drinking and went out onto the top deck, where the pool was, with some friends. They were planning to go skinny dipping, but Jess backed out at the last minute. As she walked away, she slipped and fell into the pool, knocking herself out. By the time her friends had realized she wasn't coming up for air, she was already dead.
'Waking up' to find herself dead Jess was at first in a bit of shock. She was angry for a while... then she just saw it as a golden opportunity to live the way she hadn't in her life time. She played pranks on many of the ship guests, stole food, interrupted intimate moments by the pool, stayed up all night at the parties... well till everybody got freaked out and ran away. She's one of the more harmless ghosts, though, and just wants to have fun.
Cause of Death: Drowned in the top deck pool.

User name: chaosdaae
Name: Trisha Appleton
Age: 19 (Died five years ago)
Gender: Female
Appearance:Trisha
Bio: Trisha can't remember much about her life or how she died. She'll get an image or a foggy memory every once and a while of her life, but she's basically clueless.
She enjoys getting into mischief, but sometimes she'll get unexplainable ticked off as she has a fiery temper. She tries to avoid men on the ship, and she stays away from the railing.
Cause of Death: Drowned/Murder. A drunk boyfriend got mad at her and pushed her over the rail.

Nathan climbed up the gang-way to the Queen Mary, a bag of equipment slung over his shoulder "Where to set up our command center?" he asked himself "Needs to be somewhere that can be easily accessed, & near major sites of hauntings"

"As far as finding a spot near major sites of hauntings goes, Sir, we won't have a problem," Kara noted as she carried another bag of equipment over her shoulder. "Hauntings have been reported in many of the ships levels, especially in the first and third classes."

Jessica sits in the pantry of the three, had been four, star restaurant, feeding small bits of cheese to a mouse as she sighs in boredom, her chin resting in the palm of her hand. This hour of the day, Jessica left her usual haunting location of the deck level pool to wander around the boat, usually laying low and trying to entertain herself without causing a ruckus. She liked to cause commotions of course... but it just wasn't that fun during the day. People could hardly see you, and it wasn't nearly as scary as it was at night for them. Letting out another sigh, she picks up an apple and leaves the pantry, munching on the fruit as she drifts through the kitchen and out into the hallway. The place today was oddly deserted, but Jessica didn't pay too much attention to that, or think there was a cause to it.

"I'll keep that in mind, Kara" Nathan said, entering the ship "Let's find the owner first. Let them know we are here, & what not"
PostPosted: Tue Jan 01, 2008 2:32 pm


Kara nodded as she headed inside the ship. Looking around, she gasped. /It's beautiful/ she noted as she smiled. She was quite excited about her first assignment, though she could not show too much of her excitement.

"Could certainly use a cleaning" Nathan thought to himself, glancing at a map on the wall nearby "Where is the main office...?"
PostPosted: Tue Jan 01, 2008 4:16 pm


Kara came up behind Nathan as she looked over the map as well. She was looking for the main office, but she also wanted to become familiar with the layout of the ship. "This way," she told Nathan after a few moments. "I think I found the main office."

"Thank you, Kara" Nathan said, glancing at the new assistant "Well, let's get going" he said, shifting the items he was carrying to the other shoulder.

Jessica finished her apple and threw it into a potted plant, then continued on her walk, now going through walls since she didn't have a solid object on her. Stepping through one wall, though, that put her out in a hall near the front of the ship, Jessica pauses. She could hear voices. Jessica grins, then sinks back into the wall and follows it down the hall until she saw two people in front of a map, one of them studying it. Both of them were carrying equipment. 'Ghost hunters!' She thought, then broke out into a grin. That was why nobody was about today. They had all cleared out to let these people track her people down. Oh this would be fun! Jessica, grinning ear to ear sinks back into the wall and coasts down the length of it till she reaches the map. Jessica focuses, undoing the hooks on the back that held the map in its glass framing to the wall. For a moment, she held it, then she let go and the framed map dropped to the floor, the glass shattering into a thousand little pieces. Laughing, she stays around just long enough to see the two ghost hunter's expressions, then flees through the wall and down the parallel hallway. Oh this would be so much fun!

Kara nodded as she took a few steps in the direction of the main office. As she did, however, she heard the map fall to the floor. Turning around, she saw the shatted frame of the map and chuckled softly. /It appears that if there is a ghost on this ship, he likes to play tricks/

"Well, it hasn't taken long for the ghosts to start acting up" Nathan murmured "Usually, it takes a while for em' to react"

Jessica gets down the hall away from them, then slows, frowning softly. No shouting, no chasing... how boring. Where was the reaction at all? She could have sworn the girl had even laughed at her prank. What was with these two? Most immediately started running around, trying to catch her while talking into video cameras, like on those discovery channel shows. Those folks were entertaining and stupid... but these two... yesh. Shaking her head, Jessica grumbles and moves off down the hall to go plan something better that might actually get an entertaining reaction out of them.
