Player Name: MP Ghost Name: Samara Morgan Canon: The Ring/The Ring 2 (U.S. storyline) Checked with players from that canon: N/A NPC Journal for Ghost:she_neversleeps
Panels and/or Workshops [or a table promoting/selling something in the Exhibit Hall/Artists' Alley if you'd prefer more casual interaction] to be run by your Ghost (if desired): Video Screening Room. (Samara won't be running it; it'll just be there as a thread for characters to interact in.) Playing the Cursed Ring Video 24/7. Not even on purpose; Samara's presence at the convention will just make the video play. Said video won't have any effect on ghosts, though, besides presumably boring them once it starts to repeat. Characters can also use the equipment to play their own (meta) movies; it's a fairly polite curse when it comes to sharing broadcast space with other ghosts.
Staying for the BDE?: Y/N (remember, only evil or desperate-for-a-body ghosts can stay) Oh yes. Indeedy deed.
If staying, FH character(s) (played by you) the Ghost will attempt to possess: Names, or n/a because they just plan to be evil and terrorize people Samara's tried the possession thing before; it didn't work out well. Instead, she's just going share her pain with everyone she can in Fandom, by screening her film at the MST3k Theatre on Wednesday, then doing her "Seven daaaaaays..." haunting schtick on anyone who watched it. (Since the ghosts will all get banished from the island before those seven days are up, ain't nobody gonna die; they'll just see some scary crap, have some nightmares, cough up some electrodes, get a nosebleed, almost drown in the bathtub. As you do.) She might crawl out of a few tvs just to scare folks, but she won't be able to kill them yet.
Any special powers beyond basic haunting and possession abilities (e.g. Freddy Krueger can invade people's dreams, etc.), potential issues you see with the character showing up, or other things you want to tell us? ("My character would like to change sides at some point and help the good guys" would also go here.)
Samara can give people hallucinations/nightmares of images from her life (the kind of things seen on the tape) and make some of those things affect her victims in the physical world (especially if it involves water). She can also imprint those images on various media (tape, x-rays, probably computers, as well as burning them into flat surfaces like walls). She scares the crap out of and has some control over animals, which she'll probably make use of during the finale fighty.
She might appear to anybody (canonically it's probably only the psychically sensitive, but since Ingvar is boosting all the ghosts...) but she can only physically harm those who've seen her video.
