NAME: Johnathan Endo ("Endo-sama")
AGE: The dead do not age, but he looks to be in his late twenties.
GENDER: Male
ORIENTATION: Asexual
SPECIES: Ghost
OCCUPATION: Former mayor of the city who now haunts every inch of it.
APPEARANCE: He has platinum white hair, ghostly pale skin, and piercing gold eyes. As a crow he looks mangy and ruffled. As a man he looks ruffled also, having died during a violent struggle with a vicious and mysterious assailant.
ABILITIES: Can disappear and reappear at will, sometimes people will see a talking crow and other times a dusty looking politician. It is possible for two people to look at him at the same time and each see something different. He can materialize to interact with physical objects or dematerialize to pass through walls or allow things to pass through him.
WEAPONS: When he materializes and solidifies, he is capable of infinite fabric projectiles that work as whips or for immobilizing opponents. This is a common technique used by ghosts, varying from spider web to chains. If he so chooses, he can make nets and roll people up into cocoons.
DISPOSITION: Friendly and extremely chatty, half of the time he doesn't remember that he is dead. Constantly needs reintroductions because is memory is not very good.
BIOGRAPHY: Endo was the precocious, intelligent and charismatic heir to a rich family of honest politicians who all died before their time. He himself was murdered a week before reelection because of his efforts to fix the dire straits the city was in. He was hiring ghostbusters, hunters, and exorcists out of his own pocket to come and cleanse the infestation. After his death, his will stated that all his wealth would go towards the continuance of hires and paychecks for those willing to move to the city in order to fix it. Occasionally he appears to inform others incoming dangers and to point out areas of needed attention.
OTHER: Everyone in the city knows who he is, his face is still on old posters and newspapers (about his recent murder) in random places and on billboards that have yet to be painted over completely.

  NAME: Haru / Harold / Harriet
AGE: 900 years old.
GENDER: Primarily male, sometimes a she or an it such as inanimate objects.
ORIENTATION: Depends on the above, he can be considered a pansexual.
SPECIES: Kitsune
OCCUPATION: Shapeshifting, creating mayhem, boardwalk *&^%.
APPEARANCE: Depends, but in his truest form he has no face and wears masks to cover up the fact there is nothing there but hollow smoke coming out of his neck like a chimney. To those who look for his true form, if they suspect anything, he will either appear to them as headless fox or a practically naked headless man in a white fundoshi.
ABILITIES: Can shapeshift and cast realistic, convincing illusions over the environment. His illusions cover all five senses.
WEAPONS: The above for defense and offense. He can technically transform into malicious creatures at any time if need be to attack.
DISPOSITION: Likes to please and entertain others. In his own eyes, he is a stand up comedian.
BIOGRAPHY: Too many lasting experiences and fateful encounters in his life to include, however this is one of them: as a young fox he liked to play with human children. One day while playing alone with one at the river, the child slipped, fell, and disappeared. Unable to cope with the concept of death, Haru took on the form of the drowned child and started to live with the child's family. The years went by and the family noticed that their oldest had stopped aging. They brought in a special doctor to lift this curse and found out that it was a fox spirit. He tried to explain, but they assumed he ate their child and tried to kill him. He escaped with his life but has felt jilted by the humans ever since.
OTHER: Pounds down tall cans of energy drinks to strengthen his concentration and in turn his illusions to the point where even the spiritually gifted or other yokai can't tell what his true form is. So he is commonly found hanging around vending machines and convenience stores.

NAME: Mikhail
AGE: 20
GENDER: Male
ORIENTATION: Heterosexual
SPECIES: Kappa
OCCUPATION: Depends on his mood, which is as changeable as water. Somedays he might feel like drowning a few people. Other days he acts as a life guard. Part time or at least when it is raining, in his masquerade as a human being, he is a garbage man and is part of the city maintenance crew.
APPEARANCE: Blonde, homely, blue-eyed, and noticeably bloodshot. The river is mildly polluted so he is often shiny, soaked with gasoline and oils. Slouches, but does not bow his head. Always upright. He looks sickly, overall.
ABILITIES: Can melt and disappear in the water. Can transform into frogs, turtles, seagulls, and fish.
WEAPONS: Strong jaws, teeth, and claws.
DISPOSITION: Favorite food is cucumber or cucumber rolls. His kindness can be bought by offerings of any kind besides food. Mikhail is the kind of person who would be sweating profusely even if he wasn't already drenched. Sweaty palms. Always has to wipe his brow. Stutters a little bit when he talks.
BIOGRAPHY: Mikhail has lived in the river all his life and is disappointed to how dirty it has become in recent years. If he sees litter, he picks it up and throws it away. Before the city went to ruin, the water was cleaner and no one could see him. Now that he can be seen, he wanders out of the river a lot. When it rains he can venture deeper into the city, but when the weather is dry he has to come back to the river.
OTHER: Doesn't move his head too much, never nods or shakes. Looks with his eyes.
