  We construct 3-dimensional once-Extended Topological Quantum Field Theories
(ETQFTs for short) out of (possibly non-semisimple) modular categories, and we
explicitly identify linear categories and functors in their image. The circle
category of an ETQFT produced by our construction is equivalent to the full
subcategory of projective objects of the underlying modular category. In
particular, it need not be semisimple.
