The paranormal is real, or is it? You decide with one of three approaches: the supernatural as myth, the fantastic, or reality. Investigate mysteries involving ghostly encounters, possessed victims, or freakish constructs -- or mortal threats, like rogue sorcerers and diabolists. Portray characters who follow special pursuits in life, such as science, magic, or the occult. Those tainted by the supernatural gain secret knowledges based on their chosen pursuit. From the Second Sight and Divine Arts to Sorcery and the Unholy Arts, use these powers to solve mysteries or defend humanity against the horrors.
