Spirits, Ghosts, and You
Who: Kisara, various ghosts, and open
What: Beginning of the ghost/seance plot
When: Night of August 4th into the morning of August 5th and up to a week after
Where: Various parts of the school
Warnings: Potentially some triggering things due to ghosts, trauma, that sort of thing. Think of this as a catch-all unless you want to make your own post with your own ghost nonsense.
Backstory
There was no way this could possibly go wrong, it was simple enough from her research of how to get in contact with the dead and as far as she could see, the school had certain measures in place to keep any particularly nasty spirits or those masquerading as them, from coming onto the grounds. Which meant that even if she failed, it wouldn't really matter in the long run, right?
At least she could find a place she found suitable, an area of the courtyard with just enough moonlight for her purposes. She'd spent a good couple of hours setting things up in the middle of the night, primarily setting out trays of different food and drink and two pieces of paper with hieratic script littering the pages properly.
Once it had been set up was when she quietly set the borrowed stone down in front of her, taking a deep breath before proceeding. This wasn't going to formal, she knew that, but perhaps it was only intent that had mattered. "I only seek two spirits here on this night, I present offerings and letters, if that would serve well. I only wish to speak, to find the answers to what I have since remembered. I hadn't meant to insult by not recognizing them before, I simply had the knowledge locked away..."
For a couple of minutes it seems like absolutely nothing is happening and she's rubbing at her face, maybe another few minutes? She hadn't the foggiest how this was supposed to work, but maybe it had been enough? It's once she's done with that train of thought that things really begin to start, what seems to simply be the materialization of a foggy form of a person suddenly becomes two, then three, and only multiplying from there. Clearly not going the way she had meant.
The problems with not knowing what you're doing is you also have no idea how to stop this, other than to absolutely book it from there and hope that by hiding in your room this will all go away the moment the sun rises.
Too bad that's not how it works, nor is it confined to only her.
[This is the beginning for the Ghost/Seance plot which info on can be found over here, this is a purely optional event. As for the items in the post, feel free to have your characters find them. The bonus part below has a spirit that is available during the week, just let me know if you want him somewhere specific.]
Bonus
[Throughout this whole mess there's various spirits wandering around, but there's one in particular that probably seems more out of place than anything else. A very oddly dressed man who seems to be looking for something or someone in particular instead of paying mind to anyone else around the area. There seems to be no malice to be picked up from him, more a determination and confusion. Anyone that tries to stop him may find some answers to this mess, but unless directly spoken to, seems lost in his own thoughts and plans than anything else.]
