About the adventure
If you love Friday the 13th and 80s slasher films with a dash of cosmic horror then this is the game for you! You play detectives/coroners/techs headed out to a murder at a local camp by a lake. But when you arrive, not everything adds up. The game has four pre-generated character sheets to choose from (first come first serve). This is a fast-paced investigation one shot where every clue uncovered or missed has a drastic impact on the thrilling conclusion. This is based on a one-shot written by Rina Haenze.
Have two players - still looking for a cool, calm collected deputy and a smug medical advisor to round out the team

What I provide
This is largely a theater of the mind session. Will run game in discord with handouts and maps given as needed for reference.
Gameplay details
We will have a Lines and Veils survey that everyone will fill out and we will go over at the start of session (or when new players join). This is a living document and may be update any time. We will employ Luxton for any in game moments that may occur. And after session discussion to address any moments. I generally will run what would be considered an R-rated table including descriptions of violence, substances, language, and romance (no explicit descriptions, but implied intimacy). We will not tolerate homophobia, real-world racism, sexism, or bigotry from player characters. Evil characters may potentially engage in negative and morally repugnant actions (within reason) with all player consent, but will never cross established lines and veils.
