[Third on the Match]

May Updates

Happy May, everybody! Apologies for the late update; it’s been busy over here between the end of the school year and the baby. He’s able to lift his head now and can roll over (front to back only, thanks to the prodigious weight of his head). Fortunately, at this age, I’m getting more uninterrupted sleep, so things are happening on the GM side that I’m very excited about.

I don’t have a lot of fun stuff to share sadly—not for lack of looking, but in the interest of getting this update out just… look at the #entertainment channel in the discord. That will serve. see you all in a few weeks!

City Mysteries

Train Station of the Dead
Check out the Train Station of the Dead City Mystery Event.

In the subway tunnels beneath Easthaven, the spirits of the dead and mythology are causing problems. Trips to the underworld and tears in the veil between worlds make for an interesting and dangerous commute.

Phase II has triggered.

Caught Red-Handed
Check out the Ritual Murders City Mystery!

The Exchange is following a string of strange half-blood murders that seems to be pointing back a mysterious cult. Read about the progress so far and what it's all about at the link!

Our City Mysteries meters are in our footer, under the board statistics.

Hotspots

Begin a thread in a hotspot and submit a mod request for a special encounter.

McCoy Orchards

This particular location has been a thorn in Easthaven's–and by extension, the Exchange's–side for some time now. Rumours abound of a strange elk-like creature lurking in the shadows of the orchards. It has harassed several people according to the word on the street, and photos are beginning to appear online, claiming it's a new New England cryptid. Most believe it's just a particularly aggressive elk, displaced by development or something of the sort.

There's already been two attempts at this hotspot that didn't make it to the finish line, but that just means there's another shot at whatever's lurking around McCoy's orchards!

Kingslane City Mall

Some strange happenings at the Kingslane City Mall have led to, you guessed it, even more strange happenings. Sometimes it's as small as putting your shopping bags down for a moment only to discover they've been moved when you look away. Other times, the seasonal decorations have come down on top of hapless shopper's heads! In all cases, someone claims to have seen something small and humanoid darting away from the scene of the crime. Of course, most say this was a trick of the eye, but people always say that to protect their sanity.
