Only for as long as they stay benevolent. Running around with a spirit is bad news. They have absolutely no idea if or what it will do. It could for all they know suddenly go ape shit. Not to mention a spirit hanging onto him is a huuuuge risk as soon as they come in contact with anything spectral. A stronger spirit would just oust the spirit and spiritually do nasty things to him. Its like painting a bullseye. Not to mention they would notice him far to quickly to be a effecient hunter.

Edit: Should also be noted that Dapper have only human operatives and while Blue Code/Benovelent being aren't being hunted, doesn't mean they trust them.
 
Ah, didn't realise the whole painting a bullseye side of things. Will edit.
 
Edited, let me know if there's any issues.
 
Nerfing the danger sense just a tad. I think at first instance, it should be a somewhat reliable, but not 100 percent. This will get better with time of course. Otherwise fine.
 
Added three new General Traits;

Clergy
Strong Faith
and
Survivor
 
CS edited as requested.
 
Accepted.
Is my character accepted? I edited it like I needed to but you never gave me an affirmative or negative on it.
 
Also Accepted. Your limitation is uneeded. Reading intention is a great treat and not broken. You can go ahead and remove the "twice a day" . Make t les of a active power and more that he is good at reading people. Makes more sense.
 
Well, here you go Hellis. Hope you like her :)

You might not want to waste a custom trait on Spirit Calling. That is a higher level part of Gifted Medium. As is allowing yourself to be possessed (So later, you'll be able to do what the earlier experiment forced you into. Without the nasty side effect.) Or you may make more unique and specific.
 
Name: Emerald Amadeus
Age: 31
Branch: Exterminator

Brief Biography:
Born in Miami Florida, Emerald or Emmy as she preferred to go by, was highly influenced by her uncle. A veteran of the Second World War, he trained her like a soldier, as well as infected her mind with his excessive love of fighting. The crazy old man died before Vietnam began but Emmy was desperate to join the fight. She joined as a nurse, trained, and was shipped to a hospital in Nha Trang, near the beach. She did well there for multiple years, until one day...

It was midnight, Emmy as usual, could not sleep. The military nurse was sitting on her bunk, looking out the window when she saw some thing pull itself out of the sea. It was vaster then any train she had ever seen, a faint green light pulsating from its gelatinous body. The creature would later be identified as a shoggoth after makeshift appendages dragged it along at frightening speeds.

Emmy was too frozen from shock to warn the others before the massive creature smashed into the hospital and began to devour its populous. Tendrils erupted from its slug-like form, grasping and pulling people into newly created maws. Emmy managed to get ahold of the emergency fire ax and sliced through the slimy tenticals that pursued her.

Eventually the monster left, seemingly satisfied with its meal, and dragged itself back into the ocean. The building collapsed soon after Emmy escaped, followed by D.A.P.P.E.R. operatives arriving. She was the only servivor and was found praising The Lord with tears in her eyes. She was told to discribe what happened and was offered to join. She agreed almost instantly and was found to already have profound skill in combat situations.

Weapons:
Winchester Model 1200 Shotgun and PK GPMG (Bullets brought are affected by mission)
Telescoping spear with blessed silver tip. (Functions as knife when drawn inward)
Small flare gun

Bible
Crucifix Neckless
Throwing phials of holy water, caustic acid, flammable liquid, and Coca Cola
First Aid Kit
Duel hand grenades

Athletic
Agile
Strong Faith
Unshakeable

((Sorry for the long Bio. Hopefully I've fixed it up correctly. And yes the coke phial has a use as a distraction))

That isn't a long bio xD. Don't fret. You could easily remove the spacing and it's a paragraph worth. Not that I mind long bios at all.
 
@Hellis Okies, in that case I have sacrificed that custom trait for one of the general traits. And I take it the alpha rank is then alright, as well?
 
Alpha is correct. In your Case you are Alpha-1.
 
Alpha-1? Is that something I missed in the first post?

Also, shall I consider myself accepted? ^^
