“I want your permission to do what I think is good this night.
It is, I know, much to ask; and when you know what it is I propose to do you will know; and only then, how much.”
– Van Helsing to Godalming, Morris, and Seward, Dracula
Characters
Beyond the Supernatural™ is a game of subtly and intelligence, suspense and secrets. Though most characters possess unique abilities or special gifts, their real strength or power comes from knowledge, and the willingness to look beyond the veil of normalcy and accept what may seem impossible.
The player characters are heroes, but they aren't superheroes. They can't perform outrageous feats of magic or psionics at the drop of a hat, nor do they possess super abilities Most start out with ordinary lives until their “gifts” manifest themselves of they have a brush with the supernatural that opens their eyes.
They must learn all the nuances and subtleties of their abilities -

and work in secret. The world is not ready to accept what these characters know as the truth, and the characters must accept this.
When I create / design characters for both my home games and the various gaming conventions I attend, I follow the quoted statement above as closely as I can (although I use several house rules that you can see for yourself in the Character Creator room).
I love the world of BTS and do my best to make it easy for players of every experience level to pick up one of my player character sheets and jump into a world that goes beyond the supernatural with both feet.
