Or equivalently,

numberOfPoints = 20;
particle =
   Table[{n, RandomInteger[{15, 25}], RandomInteger[{0, 200}],
     RandomInteger[{0, 200}]}, {n, numberOfPoints}];
Graphics[particle /. {label_, size_, x_,
     y_} :> {AbsolutePointSize@size, Point@{x, y}, White,
     Text[label, {x, y}]}, Frame -> True,
  PlotRange -> {{-12, 213}, {-12, 213}}, ImageSize -> 500]

or

numberOfPoints = 20;
particle =
   Table[{n,
     RandomInteger[{15, 25}], {RandomInteger[{0, 200}],
      RandomInteger[{0, 200}]}}, {n, numberOfPoints}];
Graphics[particle /. {label_, size_,
     pt_List} :> {AbsolutePointSize@size, Point@pt, White,
     Text[label, pt]}, Frame -> True,
  PlotRange -> {{-12, 213}, {-12, 213}}, ImageSize -> 500]

I find those more transparent.
