After an oddly friendly encounter with an old enemy, our "totally qualified" detectives are tasked with finding a rather infamous killer roaming the streets of London. Meanwhile, suspicion an accusations are boiling just under the surface of the detective team over at Scotland Yard, as the body count rises. Is the killer a crazed psychopath or a magical monstrosity risking exposure? Can the police of Scotland Yard be trusted? Why do people keep trusting London branch P.I. to solve these cases? Only time will tell. As for right now, we don't know Jack.

His chance is fast approaching-Lord Waeglass is throwing a party at his estate, and Sylanthis intends to use the event as cover for a break-in. After seeking out his siblings, Darilla and Darius, the plan is simple-circumvent Lord Waeglass’ defenses and retrieve what evidence they can find. What could go wrong?

Join us for part one of this two episode Playtest Project special! Our intrepid DM, Patrick, is taking the chance to play, running the eldest of the Ambergris siblings, the Revolution Oath Paladin Sylanthis.
