Pretty Fly for a Dead Guy [OPEN]

aka GHOST DICK: PHANTOM CRIMINAL

WHO: Yomiel, his lucky "volunteers", investigators, heroes and YOU
WHERE: All over Heropa
WHEN: May 26th-June 7th (I will post headings for each date's events as they come up)
WHAT: Yomiel enacts his plans and goes on a two-week crime spree by hitchhiking in other people's bodies. There will likely be fallout. Yay!
WARNINGS: Mind control, violence and threats, someone coerced into choking themselves, other coerced into self-harm, aaaand somebody gets plugged in the face on the last day.

NOTES: See the main plot post for more information/volunteering. There are a few criminal slots left as well as the opportunity for Yomiel to possess your characters to dig through their information.

Heroes and cops and other related individuals are welcome to get involve. Use the plot post to coordinate and have fun!

Brackets/prose are both fine, feel free to switch and I'll go along with them. I will post starters in prose, however.



Yomiel's life as a criminal all started the day that he died. It was an embarrassingly amateurish performance that day, the work of a man who was terrified, cornered and desperate. Those events still made his blood proverbially boil, and he took no small amount of satisfaction knowing that he had set everything right before he vanished and appeared here in Heropa.

But not everything had been set right. He still had regrets, and there were still innocent lives that had been lost due to Temsik. Yomiel didn't have the kind of power to set things right, even here in an alternate dimension.

But the government... now, that was another story. If there was anyone who knew what he needed to know, it was the government.

That was no easy hacking job, however. He needed the equipment to properly accomplish it, and to properly cover his tracks. And he needed investigators looking the other way at the time.

The first try had been amateurish as well, much better planned than his original crime, of course, but choosing Cameron Sutter to commit the break-in was always going to be unbelievable. It had made a hilarious show, watching the cops and investigators tripping all over themselves to explain how he had managed it, though from now on he'd need to be more careful. They had no idea there was a Manipulator in their midst, so that card was still free to be played.

But he couldn't afford any more screw-ups. So the people he chose from then on would have to be... special.
