Update: the archetype team role labels have proven to be something of a stumbling block, for more than one player, so I've done away with them. I might start attaching current ranking if it becomes relevant, but for now, the character roster is just that.

@Zoie Hart I guess that depends on what you think "rage quitting" is, and why/how you're doing it? Generally, the answer is no, don't do that

Why do robots make terrible casting agents? Because they're always missing parts!

time to browse all the interest checks... I don't think I'm going to find anything that grabs my interest, but it's something to do.

She gasped, looking to the item they pointed at, then back to them, with a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Oooh, a good pick, and a good guess!" She skipped over to the table, setting down the pointer, and picking up a controller.
"This, is the state of the art, standard issue, all-terrain ghost trap!" As she worked the control, it raised up on wheels, and zipped right off the table, only to sprout propellers, and fly about the room! "We kept finding ourselves in situations where we couldn't count on being able to just... Roll it under the ghost, so the PRDC worked this up, based on the innovations of none other than The Spengler Family!"
It took a dive, swooping much too close to Victor, "Whoops, haha! Do be mindful of where you steer it, though- one collision could make leftovers of your hair, and force a teammate to finish shaving their head, right, Junior Silva?"
Resuming more skillful control, she brought it to land where it started, switching from the controller to the pointer, again, looking around at the class. "Who's next?"

Started the opening post! who the instructor is talking to at the end depends on who posts first, nothing to it!
There, in the training room (technically the basement, with a curtain drawn, so the Ecto Containment Unit wouldn't be a distraction), the training video was cut off.
"And that, Juniors, is the conclusion of the video portion of your training, today!" The trainer was a bizarre individual; she was 6 feet tall, and had bubblegum pink hair, done in pigtails. The uniform had changed itself, perhaps to set the Bureau of Occult Occurrences apart from The Ghostbusters? She was dressed in canvas work pants, a simple t-shirt and an open, navy blue field jacket, with a black name patch. The patch had red stitching that spelled 'GILLMORE'. The willful addition of the iconic "no ghost" emblem on the right sleeve, though not in line with proper uniform, definitely pointed to embracing the connection to the New York based business entity.
"Next, we'll be going over the standard field equipment, as the field is where you'll be spending much of your time, in this organization!" A pause, a falter to the smile, "Unless the Station Master assigns you to 'training detail' because he's mad at you, or something..."
Extending a telescopic pointer, she gave a a swish, "Who wants to pick the first thing we talk about, on that table?" Another swish, gesturing to a folding table, with a variety of equipment laid out for demonstration purposes.
Another swish, putting the pointer into a students' face, "How about you, 'sunshine'?"

Ok, I'm going to get something up for the opener in the next couple of days!
I'm interested!!
Ok, follow that link, read the ooc, and send me a character
Update: I've added a cs under a hider in the original post
@Theyra I'll come up with a CS, be just a couple minutes.
A television screen comes to life, buzzing with static, then with a click, switches to footage of the one and only Raymond Stantz, sitting at a desk.
"Greetings, trainees, and welcome, to your first day with the Bureau of Occult Occurrences; 'BOO'!" He allowed himself a brief moment to laugh at himself, before continuing.
"As you know, ever since the 'Final Confrontation' in Oklahoma, and the 'Garaka Incursion' in New York, paranormal activity has only grown, both in frequency, and range! While the growing Paranormal Research and Development Center is working hard to better understand this phenomenon, it was not going to be enough to simply know what was happening, but to have a response-" Mention of the PRDC prompted an Image of Winston Zedmoore, posing for a picture in front of a now more developed Center building.
"Lucky for the good people of these United States, we, the surviving Ghostbusters, reluctantly agreed to enter a cooperation agreement with the National Security Organization, for the purpose of training operatives to deal with these paranormal activities." Another image appeared on the screen, of the full team, including the Spengler Family, in the wake of the Garaka Incursion."And thus, the 'Ghostbusters' have gone, 'Ghost-to-Ghost'!" Another moment to laugh at his own joke.
"So, the question is no longer, 'Who ya gonna call?', but 'Are you prepared... To answer it?'." He smiled to the camera, and concluded, "Welcome aboard!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to Ghostbusters: Legacy; an rp made to let players have their own ghostbusting adventures, in all new settings, because not everything can be localized to Manhattan Island :P
This one will take place in Western Washington, because that's the locale I'm most familiar with.
The Firehouse is the standard model for base of operations, and the adoption of ranking:
Trainee/"Junior">Inspector(fully trained agent)>Lieutenant>Captain>Assistant Station Master>Station Master (this is limited to an individual firehouse, with higher regional positions being Chief, Marshal and Grand-Marshal, for City, County, and State level respectively).
The rest, we can world build together!
Please submit characters via pm, and wait for approval before posting in the character tab.
Characters:
Danny
Vic
Javier
You don't have to adhere strictly to these labels I've applied to the team roles, just so long as you have a clear idea of the kind of character you want to play, and I can place their name next to whichever I think fits.
One character per player, please.
(also, don't let the organization deter you, we're all here to have fun, the humor is still supposed to be part of this)
