Shade, Shift, Shine !
This newly opened RPG is based off the actions in the Shade Trilogy by Jeri Smith-Ready. There is not a main plot, but rather several sub plots that occur. As well, there are no canon characters, but all strictly original characters.
Seventeen years ago on the winter solstice the shift occurred. Those born after 3:50 am on December 22nd, 1995 were part of the group known as the 'Post-Shifters'. These individuals were born able to see and speak to ghosts. Everybody born before this time is known as 'Pre-Shifter'. Very few pre-shifters were able to see and/or speak to ghosts before the shift, but once the shift happened, they were no longer able to. Nobody is sure what caused the shift, and nobody is sure how to correct its actions. The Department of Metaphysical Purity (DMP) was created to keep the citizens of the United States safe, as was their British counterpart, MI-X. However, the DMP has shifted to simply trying to find a way to reverse the shift and has focused on detaining 'at-risk ghosts' along with blackboxing everything that they possibly can. MI-X is more focused on helping each of these ghosts pass on as soon as they can. Which role will you fall into in all of this phenomenon?
