Departments & Positions

• Station Command Staff (Primary Manifest)

  The station's top scientists and busters alike make up this band of senior NCGB members.

  Show Positions

  Station Chief		The Station Chief is in charge of overseeing all the day-to-day activities of the station. From mission logistics, staff promotions, to final reports, the Station Chief approves almost everything.
  Dispatcher/Researcher		The Dispatcher/Researcher of the station can forward calls to their smartphones if they're needed in the field for ghostbusting, but the majority of their work is done at a desk in the station. Dispatch coordinates with all departments by sending out company-wide messages, as well as researches any cases that are called into the station. Nothing gets to the station chief's desk without first filtering through to Dispatch. Dispatch also maintains Social Media for NCGB and watches most of that for any ghost tips or issues that otherwise might not be phoned into the station. Dispatch also sends ghostbusters in the field new orders and directions when it applies. This staff member is so integral, that they are considered part of the Station's Command Staff.
  Chief Paranormal Combat Specialist		The Chief Paranormal Combat Specialist (aka CPCS) is charged with maintaining top-tier training of all ghostbusters across all departments. They study tactics and strategies to best vanquish hostile paranormal forces.
  Chief Scientist		Chief Scientist is in-charge of overseeing any R&D projects the other scientists work on. As well, the Chief Scientist dumbs down any ideas the Station Chief or others may not fully comprehend. All of the Science Staff are supervised directly by the Chief Scientist.

• Paranormal Combatant Staff (Primary Manifest)

  The men and women of this department are specialized in the vanquishing of ghosts. While they might not have strong backgrounds in technology or science, they are the station's first line of defense against the paranormal.
  
  If not in the field, they are training best on how to recognize hostile ghosts from harmless ones.

  Show Positions

  Paranormal Tactician		The second-in-command of the PCS, the Paranormal Tactician analyzes previous busting missions and formulates new ways to trap, contain, or vanquish hostile ghosts.
  Paranormal Combatant		The Paranormal Combatant is the riflemen of the organization. They train and they fight. They know their proton packs better than anyone, even if they don't fully understand all the scientific garble of how miniature nuclear reactors work. Anyone seeking to join NCGB with no other schooling or training under their belt, are made Trainees in this department.

• Support Staff (Primary Manifest)

  While most roles in this department are less than glamorous, NCGB's Support Staff play a huge role in getting teams to and from case sites, tech support, researching cases, and coordinating with other Ghostbusters.
  
  The supervisor of this department is the Dispatcher/Researcher.

  Show Positions

  Computer Programmer/Technician		This member of NCGB is adept at making Applications to aid in ghostbusting, maintains and upgrades company smartphones, and repairing the computer technology used in the Station and Ecto vehicles. They, like all over members of the Support Staff, answer directly to the Dispatcher.
  Auto Mechanic		This member of the Support Staff may on occasion work with the scientists to maintain and upgrade the Ecto vehicle fleet. Like all other members of NCGB, they too, have basic ghostbusting capability. Their primary role, however, is to repair and maintain company vehicles. The Auto Mechanic answers directly to Dispatch.
  Big Wheel Driver		This ghostbuster is certified and trained to drive 18-wheel haulers, as the one NCGB uses as a mobile lab. Often they help the mechanic with repairs. The Big Wheel Driver is also a well-trained buster like any other field asset of NCGB.
  Medic		This Ghostbuster can be a trained EMT, Nurse, or Medical Doctor. Their role in the group is to assess injuries, treat, or pass the puck to local hospitals if the case is beyond the Medic’s abilities. While Medics are trained in basic ghostbusting, their primary focus is the health and safety of the station’s crew.

• Science Staff (Primary Manifest)

  Overseen by the station's Chief Scientist, this group of GBs comes from a wide variety of scientific backgrounds.
  
  Nuclear engineers, mediums, and paranormal psychologists. When conventional means do not work, the scientific minds of the station come together to troubleshoot and create new methods of dealing with paranormal foes.

  Show Positions

  Nuclear Engineer		The storage and decommissioning of NCGB’s proton pack (miniature nuclear device) is the top priority for this NCGB member. Understanding how all Ecto technology works and upgrading them comes through the Nuclear Engineer’s desk first.
  Paranormal Anthropologist		While any paranormal studies are still largely considered pseudoscience, to NCGB, the Paranormal Anthropologist (aka PA) is probably one of the most crucial members of the station. The PA studies the behavior and social patterns of ghosts. While trained to vanquish ghosts if it’s called upon, the PA is typically keener to study and relate to a ghost over trapping them.
  Paranormal Psychologist		Another subset of paranormal studies, this psychologist is called in to help pacify a spirit that’s stuck in limbo. The ghost they treat are not hostile, but the dwellings the ghosts inhabit have been disturbed to the point the Paranormal Psychologist is needed to help a ghost cross the next threshold into the afterlife. On occasion, the Paranormal Psychologist may need the unit’s Mediums to communicate with ghosts, but otherwise, the Paranormal Psychologist performs a non-ghostbusting purpose, most of the time.
  Medium		Mediums have the ability to commune with the dead. Because of this, Ghostbusters International recruits hard for these rare individuals. NCGB is no different. A Medium of the unit, while assigned to the Science Staff, can specialize where they want within NCGB. If there comes a time where they run into a ghost that is hard to combat or talk to, the Medium is there to translate and articulate for them. How adept at ghostbusting a Medium is, depends largely on how much they wish to train. Some Mediums within the organization train with the Paranormal Combatants all the time, while other Mediums assist with science or support staff tasks.

• Reoccurring Characters (NPCs) (Primary Manifest)

  Characters likely to make an appearance. Some might be family of Playing Characters, or Persons of Interests that NCGB is likely to come across.

  MaxTech CEO		MaxTech is one of the biggest benefactors for NCGB and other GB stations. MaxTech deals with computers, smartphones, and holographic technology advancement.
  Family		Those GB members who have family they talk to and see often are found here. Their backgrounds are various.
