THE SUPERNATURAL PRIMER
The universe as it is, not as it ought. Seeking the supernatural in MIDNIGHT ARRIVING is an invitation to adventure, horror, and hope. Become the gasoline to this wildfire, or seek to escape into the eaves of the waking dream, and embrace what has shunned the Adversary.
THE SUPERNATURAL IN BRIEF
I. ABILITIES
There exists two umbrella kinds of power that beings of a sentient kind have access to while in the material world. Outside of specialized interest groups, the average person within the Emergency Coalition is likely to believe these powers to be superstition. However, folklore is common, and the end of the galaxy has brought upon an age of tolerance for eccentric belief.
PSI / ESP
- Exploitation of thoughtforms or paradoxes on a personal level.
- Personal will-to-power, using emotions or bodily health as batteries.
- Associated with the “spark” of sentience that binds higher-order beings.
- The ill-described “knack” of certain sentient beings.
OCCULTISM / MYSTICISM
- Bringing powers beyond the mirror into material reality.
- Connections and deals struck with the planes behind the mirror.
- Associated with traversal through the mirror, to dimensions beyond the material.
- The often-felt connection to systems unimaginably larger.
II. THE MIRROR
“The Mirror” is a term used to describe any location not of the material world. Typically, occultists will traverse rifts in the material world to access The Mirror.
