Thoughts of the Supernatural (OOC Descussion and sign up)

I've being thinking about making another thread and I thought about it for a moment and decided to do a different theme. Every thread that I've seen is either war, politics, diplomatic talks, embassies, fact books, fantasy or based in the future.

I was thinking that it could be a horror based thread. It's setup mainly based around Real Life ghost stories we hear when we were kids or grew up around. Like the Goosebumps book and television series. The thread would be based around a handful of ghost stories or supernatural events that repeat over time and its up to a crazy group of people who are willing to give a shot at solving these cases. Now, not all of them are going to be solved because it'll make the thread more interesting but that could be talked about.

As for Supernatural Events and Characters, I'm fairly limited to what I can find but, nations can add their own and I'll do one of mine as an example.

The Headless Horseman who was a Hessian soldier who was killed during the American Revolution and his head were used as a cannonball. He was said to roam near North Tarrytown in New York, America and this can be the first event the players can go to.

The Countess in the Forgotten Tower in Hungary was in the 1100's and she was bent on finding the source of immortality. To do this, she lured children into the castle where she killed them and drained their blood into her bath tub from which she bathed in. This resulted with the Tower being blocked off and when the Mongalian's invaded Hungary, the Tower collasped but it was rumoured that the Countess survived somehow. However, this later surfaced during the Second World War when Hungary was allied with the Germans. A group of children and teenagers ventured into the tower and were never heard from again. It was presumed that Communist Forces had taken the group but it was never proven.

What does that mean? Would control over an element (ice, for example) be too superhuman, but super strength would be okay?

Enhance abilities are limited to a weak control over an element but you can enhance your abilities. Eg: enhanced agility, running, strength etcra but no super human abilities.

Is it possible to add a myth/supernatural event and not take part in the thread?

It includes flight but I can allow spider sense's to pass through.

Lynion, it would be perfered if you send at least someone to act as a guide through the event that happens.
