ゴースト闇鍋 (Ghost Yaminabe or Ghost Dark Pot) is a ghost made collaboratively as part of an event hosted by netai98. It is a chaotic ghost, where participants wrote dialogue for the ghost without knowing what other participants were writing. Therefore, the personality and topics of conversation change from dialogue to dialogue. Most of the ghost's dialogue is in Japanese, however there is some dialogue in English.

The ghost uses a modified version of a freeshell called “うにゅっとしたフリーシェル”.

Features

  • Chaotic dialogue, in both Japanese and English.
  • Dressups for different types of glasses.
  • Pressing T will make the ghost talk, while pressing M will open Unyuu's menu.
  • A signboard to open the menu or play a random dialogue.
    • The signboard can be hidden in Unyuu's menu.
  • The second menu option in Tenebris Aurum's menu opens an option to select a balloon.
    • If the BalloonSelector plugin is installed, it will open the plugin's menu so that the user can visually select a balloon.
    • If the plugin is not opened, it opens the Ghost Explorer to the Balloon tab.

Hotkeys

  • T - Makes the ghost say a random dialogue.
  • M - Opens Unyuu's menu.

Signboard

The signboard is an additional character which serves to allow the user to perform the same actions as the hotkeys, but with a mouse.

The top text of the signboard, メニュー, translates to “Menu” and can be clicked to open Unyuu's menu.

The bottom text of the signboard, トーク, translates to “Talk”, and can be clicked to make the ghost say a random dialogue.

The signboard can be dismissed in Unyuu's menu with the top option, which reads 看板をしまう (“put away the signboard”). If the sign is not visible, it can be brought back with the top option, which now reads 看板を出す (“put up the signboard”).
