Haunted: Haunted is the term used by GHOUL to describe people possessed by GHOUL. Haunted do not age past the age they were when they died and came back to life. There bodies still do require sleep, food, drinks, and other usual requirements. Haunted also have a much faster recovery time from injuries, illness, and come with a higher pain tolerance. Despite all of this a haunted can still die, just not from old age.
Haunted are identifiable by a few different ways. The first is looking for a spirit mark. A spirit mark is a piece of the Haunted’s body that the spirit has made their own. They can come in a wide range of sizes or forms, for example someone with blues eyes could have a spirit mark their eye turning one of them red and giving the person one red eye and one blue eye. Marks that look like more complicated brands or tattoos are also common. Those are only a few of the many different forms a mark can take. A haunted is also granted a singular power by the spirit representing the spirit's domain. For example a spirit whose domain was fire could grant the power to create a flaming sword to their Haunted.
Haunted live in a state of coexistence with the spirit inside them. They are two souls that share one body and must work together. Spirits pick who their Haunted are before they die and it is the spirits who bring the Haunted back from the grave so cases of Haunted and spirits not getting along are rare. Squabbling between the pair is normal but there is very rarely any real negative emotions between the two. Haunted also get to keep control of a majority of the body and their emotions minus the spirit mark. It is documented that a spirits personality begins to affect the Haunted over time, causing a change in minor behaviors but the core aspects of the Haunted never change.
Spirits: A spirit is a powerful being from the spirit realm that has crossed over and possessed the body of a Haunted. Each spirit has it’s own personality and domain that it had while it was in the spirit realm. Some spirits are stoic, some are noble, some are mischievous, and some are even down right evil. The morality of a spirit causes them to seek out humans that are at least somewhat similar to themselves to possess. Only the truly bold, bored, or foolish spirits seek out a human whose ideals don’t match their own.
As mentioned previously spirits had domains attributed to them while they were in the spirit realm. Those domains can be pretty much anything. Some spirits had the domain of dreams, some had madness, others and forest, etc, etc. If human minds could imagine in then it is likely that a spirit exist with that as a domain. Spirits
GHOUL: An agency founded to maintain the balance between Spirit and Mortal Realm. It also serves as a way to connect Haunted with one another. . Despise the fact that GHOUL is made primarily for the Haunted it has more normal humans working for the agency then there are Haunted, but that is mostly because the Haunted are few in number. Members of GHOUL are usually broken up into two categories, Field agents and Home agents. Field agents are those who possess the skill sets or powers better fit for finding and correcting disruptions to the balance. Home agents are agents who have skill sets or powers that are not suited for field work.
To the outside world GHOUL operates as a private investigator company known as Lough & Co. Lough & Co. operates out of a single story office based in Tokyo Japan, however underneath the building is 10 floors of underground complexes that GHOUL uses as their headquarters. Besides the main HQ smaller set ups have been established in the capital cities of most major countries on each of the continents. A small satellite base even exists in the cold and desolate Antarctica where the occasional disturbance occurs. Each of the GHOUL bases around the world has a different type of shop set up using some variation of Lough as it’s cover title. Agents are also given a special emblem that they are able to show government workers to get access to what they need otherwise the governments around the world tend to stay out of GHOUL’s activities. How this was accomplished is a well kept secret between the director and his inner circle.
