A small and subtle update to my website today. I’ve installed a tool that allows me to manually change the “By” line for any post on my site – so from now on, instead of “By Jinji” always appearing next to the date of publication, all comics and stories will now show a custom byline […]
The shadows beckon you...
Described by his friends as "the embodiment of goo and shadows", Jinji the Gengar is a mischievous, fun-loving spook who never takes anything too seriously, except when it comes to battle! Originally the persona of one of Pokémon World Online's most famous Admins, Jinji has since taken on a life of his own as the Gengar master of an ever-growing band of Ghosts who treat each other as family; and who enjoy playing pranks, having fun and fooling about both with their hauntings and with each other. They follow Jinji's mantra of Lawful Neutrality and try to act spooky and scary but never actually harm anyone, unless they are a direct threat to themselves or other innocent life.
This site serves as the new online home for Jinji the Gengar; where he and his human handler (not Trainer – Jinji will never be tamed!) will host all the artwork designed for or with him over the years; publish new stories; and expand on the comic universe of Jinji and his many friends – both Ghost and non-Ghost – with new character descriptions, explanations of his canon, and an in-depth look into the many concepts and headcanons that make up the Realm of the Ghosts.

The Ecosphere
As Jinji eagerly unwraps the gift he can’t help but notice that the seams are completely covered in clear tape. It seems that Aadvay was in a rush when making the gift. It doesn’t matter what the outside looks like anyway. Jinji finally manages to get through the tape and open the box. Inside was […]
Kinship, Kindness, and Kabooms! A tale of friendship across the realms
A collaborative effort between Jinji, Panda, Cat and many of Jinji’s real-life friends. Each gift shown in this tale was suggested by one of Jinji’s friends, and their characters are herein depicted handing the gifts to Jinji’s ghosts. All artwork is by Kumada Panda, with the exception of Cat’s appearance and the full-scale image of […]
A friendly break-in
A few hours before Jinji’s party, Jinji observes an unfamiliar ghost enter his mansion and add some extra pizazz to the cake Phantisserie is preparing to give him at the end of the day. Jinji decides to confront this stranger, only to find out that it’s actually a very familiar friend! But for whatever reason, he doesn’t seem able to stick around, and Jinji is left rather confused by what’s just transpired…
The Gifts of GenCL
While the rest of the Ghosts were in the human realm collecting gifts for Jinji’s upcoming birthday party back at home, Jinji himself was also on an adventure! Jinji receives an invitation to visit the Gen CL Realm, where, over the next few days, he visits several of the realm’s many cults, each of which […]
“Halloween Too?”
Aadvay really doesn’t like putting on performances for people if he knows they can tell who he is. Nor does he really like being around strangers. And he scares easily. Halloween to him is a culmination of all his fears in one night. The only thing he really enjoys about the holiday is dressing up and eating candy.
For Jinji, however, Halloween is the greatest night of the entire year, and he and his fellow ghosts make the most of it every single year, performing all sorts of hauntings and spooky tricks and getting all the candy they can! Jinji barges into Aadvay’s house, hoping to rope his friend into joining their shenanigans, but is caught by surprise when he witnesses Aadvay’s fear for himself.
Unfortunately for Aadvay, Jinji decides this won’t do! After all, did he forget the time he forced Jinji into celebrating his own favourite holiday, St Patrick’s Day? After expressing concern for Aadvay’s lack of bravery, Jinji drags Aadvay out of the house and gets him to join in with some true Halloween fun…
Jinji’s Ghoulish Games
“Audience, please take your seats and make yourself comfortable! The show is about to begin!” Celeste, the Misdreavus, chuckled as the sizeable auditorium quickly filled up with sitting faces. Though her voice was normally whispered and calm, even approaching sultry at times, she was also able to summon up a very commanding tone when she […]
Character Profile: Celeste
Some people believe Misdreavus are screaming banshees; others suggest they’re more like siren ghosts. Whatever you believe, Celeste is very likely to both support and challenge your views. This mysterious Misdreavus glides through Jinji’s mansion, keeping a watchful eye over things and helping to maintain order whenever Jinji is too preoccupied to do it himself. […]
First Contact
After getting frustrated with her lack of success in magic spells, a Braixen called Brianna accidentally gets hold of one of her Delphox teacher’s book of advanced spells. Little does she know, she’s about to make a massive mistake… The beginning of the Equilibrium saga.
Green King
A St. Patrick’s Day gift from Cat (https://www.deviantart.com/silverbettaCCT), who then worked with me on dialogue and posing etc, resulting in a brand-new adventure between Jinji and Aadvay!
As someone who absolutely loves green, St. Patrick’s Day is Aadvay’s favourite holiday and the one time of the year he truly gets to enjoy making a huge mess! Knowing how Jinji loves green and mess too, Aadvay goes to meet up with him, believing that Jinji will have planned something great for the holiday. Unfortunately, it turns out Jinji has completely forgotten! Aadvay considers this unacceptable, and Jinji is soon apologizing profusely, promising to make it up to him. Suddenly, however, Aadvay gets a devious idea…
