Alice is Missing | One-Shot
About the adventure
It's the first day of winter break in the coastal town of Silent Fall, northern California. The last couple of years have been rough on the town, the recession hit it hard and has struggled to recover, and it's taken its toll on everyone. People just aren't as nice as they used to be. Charlie Barnes has come back to this sleepy town nestled in the woods, but something is wrong. He hasn't heard from Alice since before he left his mom's house for his' dad's place in Silent Falls. Charlie gets in touch with you and a few other of Alice's friends to see if they have heard from her. But you have some troubling news for Charlie, Alice is missing. Embark on a truly unique Role-playing journey in this silent game where you work together to find out what happened to Alice, and who is responsible.
Game style
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

How to prepare
You will need to have the ability to record a voice message such as 'Sound Recorder' on Windows or 'Voice memo' on Mac. Once you are in the server, you will be given a choice of character
What I provide
I will bring the soundtrack and timer the game is played with, a discord server for all messages to be sent between players, and guide you through the game as it's facilitator.
Gameplay details
The circumstances around missing women often involve violence, sexual violence, date rape, teenager-adult relationships, partner abuse, problems at home, victim blaming, and death. There are queer characters in the story, so the possibility of outing characters without their consent and homophobia may come up. You will be encouraged to use Line and Veils for this topics, and mention any further areas that may be uncomfortable for you before the game. The X-card will be in use in game, either by sending a message while playing, or being able to speak up about it when needed. When the game is done, we will take some time to debrief, to reflect on the game and go over any areas people want to discuss before we leave our characters for good.
