Career: Nightstalker

Who Ya Gonna Call?

Within the boundaries of known space are countless tech levels, legends, rumors, and oddity. The majority of it is well understood. Other things aren't as well understood, but are on the frontiers of inquiry and bleeding-edge research. Still other phenomena are constantly subjected to discussion and unscientific analysis. But Out There are things stranger still. Things lurking in the shadows. Things that elude the best minds and the finest science. Things even the most rational citizens can only deem supernatural.

When such strangeness manifests, it sometimes must be dealt with in some fashion. There is a group of people able to do so; trained to investigate, identify, and if necessary eliminate such supernatural threats. Such a group has been operating since the dawn of the interstellar government. They call themselves the Nightstalkers. The Nightstalkers – officially designated Scout Service Subsection X – are a special clandestine branch of the Scouts, charged with investigating events and objects that many would consider within the realm of the paranormal.

When strangeness rears its ugly head, when the unexplained forces its way into the adventure, Cepheus Engine and Original Science Fiction Roleplaying Game players now have the tools and the skills to deal with it. Career: Nightstalker offers a brief history of the Nightstalkers, their mission and scope, how they recruit their members, character generation suggestions, new skills, ways the Referee can slot the Nightstalkers into the campaign, and even a short list of threats for Nightstalkers to deal with.
