Finding The Author

Timeline

• April 2021: A trailer for an action-thriller film called 'The Author' went viral on YouTube. The interrogators are masked. The gore could make even the unblinking Tzimisce cringe, but what's truly chilling how they drop names far too specific to be coincidental. It's not a trailer. It's a message.
• May 2021: Lucky Boar Studios, the production company responsible for The Author, is robbed of a small server farm on-site. 1390 Market Street (Fox Plaza). An investigation is ongoing, with much of the controversy focusing on Dominique Cantrell, a Sentry Security guard.
• June 2021: A trial date is set for Dominque Cantrell.

Get Involved

Any of the information above is fair game for your character to know unless it's marked as belonging to a certain group. If it's marked to belong to a certain group, like "Nosferatu," then you need to be a part of that group.

Send in +requests to investigate! You can assign jobs to others, so if something is being run by a PRP runner or you know the staffer you're after, simply assign it (+job/assign #=person). Ask around IC. On the Looking For RP channel (@channel/join looking), point out one of the threads you're interested in and ask if someone'd like to join.

Sometimes, +events are made to round everybody up to move a plot beat forward. Keep an eye out for +events that seem related and try to join 'em. That said, there's no need to wait on an +event to get the ball rolling: reach out to staff, to PRP runners, and fellow players on channels and through +request.
