In a world where magic exists and the supernatural is real, myths and legends take on entirely new and different meanings for those who are part of the supernatural or paranatural worlds and often tend to over lap somewhat.
Beck, Amanda: (1985 - ): A middle aged woman in Canada who's one of the few reliable mediums for communicating with the dead. She is currently on tour promoting her book The Other Side: A Useless Guidebook.
Horqarnek (1915 - ): An Inuit shaman with the ability to control the cold. There are stories that he plans to bring about a new ice age to crush the white men who harmed his people, but most ignore such tales as fables. Some Inuit believe the tales to be true, and a small cult dedicated to furthering his nebulous goals can be found in some remote northern villages in Alaska, Canada and Russia.
Jacob, Father Larry (? - ?): Father Larry Jacob is a priest of indeterminate order and faith who's magical powers are unequalled in modern days. Stories claim he's called the fires of god from the skies and others that he may be forming a new inquisition to deal with the evils of the world.
Livingston, Adam (1834 - ? ) The necromancer of his age, Adam is said to have kept people alive past their time, held off death and even resurrected someone, though that has never been proven. He devoted himself mostly to banishing the dead and examining the areas between life and death and raised few zombies in his lifetime. He disappeared prior to the first world war and is presumed dead.

McCall, Eric "Eric the Red" (1942 - ): Eric is probably one of the most powerful pyrokinetics known to be alive. Brain-washed by his kin in younger days to help free Ireland from Britain, he caused more deaths with his powers than many bombs before being kidnapped by the Russians to be a secret weapon in their war against the United States. He got free by burning down over half of Moscow and, according to some, actually caused planes to explode in mid air. He ended up becoming a potent force during the Cold War and was pardoned for his earlier crimes against Britain. After the end of that war, he hunted vampires for a time but eventually settled down to retire in far northern Canada (not being welcome in Russia) where he hopes his power will cause less damage when he loses control of it.
