(Continued)
The Djinn wasn't very happy about it either. Fortunately Old Bill found an
ally on the ethereal plane who helped him send encoded pages back to the
physical plane.
The successful conclusion of the game results in Old Bill being returned to
his earthly state and the evil creature that imprisoned him destroyed—or
at the very least sealed within his ethereal realm.

Garrick elder
48 year s old, bor in in New C lacker, Pennsylvania.
Historian, expert in ancient mysteries of paranormal, metaphysical, and
bizarre lore. Garrick is a detective of sor ts. He investigates cases that
involve the metaphysical and chronicles them in novel form.
Jacinthe Jung
(JJ to friends, though Garrick calls her YuhYuh, keeping
with the German Y sound of her names.) 28 years old, born in Flearshire,
England. Her family was tragically killed in a house fire in Halifax. Being
orphaned, Jacinthe was raised in a series of foster homes in England before
she ran away and hid in the hold of a ship bound for the US. She applied
for a job as a clerk with Garrick, who quickly discovered that Jacinthe was
smart, quick-thinking, and a benefit to the agency. Jacinthe manages the
day-to-day running of Elder and Jung and aids in the investigation of the
cases through research and legwork for Garrick.
sgt. emil putty
Emil worked on the police force for 20 years; then he
retired and took a job as a security guard at the Wilhelm Frobish Hospital
for the Criminally Insane. When the hospital closed, he retired for good.
“Old Bill” putty
Twin brother of Emil, who recommended him for the
job of caretaker of the Frobish building and grounds. Old Bill disappeared
one night literally without a trace. He took the job because he thought it
would be the perfect place to practice some of the occult stuff he had been
reading about. He wasn't a Wiccan, Satanist, Voodoo priest, or anything of
that nature. He was just fascinated with the rituals and thought they were
kind of cool. Unfortunately for him, a little knowledge went the wrong way
and he summoned for th the Mystical Djinn, Doooola. Doooola promptly
ripped him from the physical plane and forced him into slavery.
