House of the Yurei
Empire Underguild inside Entertainers Guild
Can be home to characters.
This entertainment house shelters many ghosts and yokai. The entertainers tend to their well being and are careful for them to not cause any troubles. Besides that, it looks like a fairly usual entertainment house and most customers don’t know about the spirits until one walks over them and starts whining about whatever.
The entertainers have shrines for every spirit in the house, where they place small offers so the spirits are happy. The spirits aren’t very powerful, but they can cause trouble for the business when they are upset, because they scare off customers.
Chopirako
Chopirako is the main spirit of the house. Chopirako is the ghost of a grifix which tends to whine all the time but most entertainers just ignore her. If a customer misbehaves and the entertainer cries or is hurt, she will attack the customer, because other grifix’s whines bother her very much, but she may also attack the entertainer for the same reason. It is very important that nobody cries or whines in the house for she will get upset and wreak havoc around the house. She doesn’t like hearing grifix talk, but she can’t stand at all hearing the sound of distress.
Chopirako was the mother of an old entertainment house. The building started to crumble and the customers stopped coming so all the entertainers left, leaving the old mother alone. She kept on living there, mumbling and whining about her fate all the time.
Grifix in the Entertainment District used to say to each other: “take care of your house and fix what is broken, or you will reach the same fate like Chopirako!”.
She lived a long time, and grifix started to think “she is so old, why won’t she die already?” But nobody ever found her dead body.
Nowadays they say Chopirako is still alive, or that her own ghost buried the body, but she has always lived there since anybody can remember.
In reality, she probably died at some point, but because nobody found the body, people kept believing she was there, so the magic in the air manifested at the beginning into a copy of the old mare, then later evolved into the strange being that is known today.
Because her death was never recorded, she is still the owner of the house, but a new mother took over and fixed up the house eventually. Still, the house has gathered many myths and spirits over the time, and apeasing them is much easier than working against them.
Yonaki
Yonaki is a shadowy grifix spirit that sits in corners of the house, usually in unoccupied rooms. It is often curled up in a ball and busy crying, when it is disturbed it will shriek and disappear.
Nopperabō
Nopperabō is a ghost in the shape of a grifix, but it has no face. it sits at one table and doesn't move unless scared off. If someone sits next to it its blank face will slowly morph to match theirs.
Sometimes if havoc is wrecked in the house, all the spirits run off scared and it takes a while for the entertainers to calm them down and take them back to their usual places. Sometimes, scared off by the chaos, TBN will start walking around, going through walls and entering rooms where customers are being entertained and it would morph into the customer's faces terrifying them, only fueling the chaos.
It would only do that when something is wrong, and entertainers would usually try to calm it and get it back to its usual place, especially since the spirit is forgetful and can't return on its own, so unless helped it will continue to wander around spooking customers.
