WHAT || The Knights investigate several deaths downtown
WHERE || London, England
WHEN || Feb 20th, 2015
HOW || Actionspam

Two bodies have been found in downtown London, likely the victims of attacks by some sort of Shadow creature. To prevent a panic, the police are investigating the matter as a dog attack and a potential robbery, while slipping the case under the table to Wynn and his Knights to look into further. Whatever did this is big, nasty, and seems to have taken down the victims without their even struggling. For now, the team is splitting up to look into the crime scenes more closely.

[Not sure if Knowledge Religion would do her any good here? She doesn't have ranks in it, so it's basically just an int check for her. But she gets a 20 total??]

I take it you never saw this High Priest?

[likedillinger]

[ well, there are a lot of religions who use the term High Priest, especially in Shadow religions???

"No, I don't think he ever did either. Which is why it was strange that he talked about him as he did. Sometimes he even called him Father." ]

Some kind of cult, probably.

[She gives the smallest nod in Dean's direction, agreeing with him but trying not to draw attention to it and possibly freak out the boy.]

Do you have any idea where this group is located? Even just a general area?

[likedillinger]

[ he shakes his head, scratching at the side of it. "N-no, I don't think there's even... a place for it, I don't know. It was like he said he knew a guy who knew a guy, but he never went to meetings or anything." ]

[daredtobelieve]

Is there anything else about them you can remember? [also sense motive 36 unless her terrible wis check was last night makes that not a thing I can do right now.]

[likedillinger]

[ he seems to be totally honest, and it's clear that he was worried about the guy, but also didn't want to get mixed up in his business when he was still alive.

"That's all I know, I swear." dean is unsatisfied with that, and adds: ] Nobody saw or heard anything weird that night? Any kind of big animal?

[ the guy squints, surprised he brought that up. "I heard rumors that some neighbors complained about wild animals growling in the streets. Didn't think anything of it." ]

[daredtobelieve]

We think the two events may be connected. Did anyone mention seeing an animal?

[likedillinger]

[ "Nobody saw anything, no. Just heard things." ]

[daredtobelieve]

Thank you. You've been very helpful, and I truly do appreciate it. You won't mind if we have a look around, will you?

[likedillinger]

[ "There's nothing to find here," he shakes his head. "I live here, but Emilio-- he moved out a long time ago. Took the little bit of stuff he had with him." ]

[daredtobelieve]

Moved? Do you know where he was staying?

[likedillinger]

[ "People kept kicking him out from one place to another. They call him ... they call him 'that loco' behind his back."

... Great. Real great. So that's all you've got for us?

[ he shrugs, rubbing the back of his hand across his mouth. "Like I said, I don't know much. He just-- he got real weird after he hooked up with the Children or whatever. I only kicked him out cuz I thought he might start bringing that shit around here, y'know?" ]

[daredtobelieve]

Of course. You've been very helpful. [She glances towards Dean with mom eyes to urge him to agree with her B| ]

If you think of anything else, we'll be in the city for awhile yet. I'm sure a resourceful young man like yourself will be able to track us down.

[likedillinger]

Yeah, real helpful. [ lmao he tried. the kid nods and dean heads for the door. ] Let's see if the others have found anything.

[daredtobelieve]

Hopefully something about where this cult resides. I have a feeling they're more involved than one might think.

[heading for the other location in town now la la la.]
