Bjorn Bradwin: Hacking security feeds.
After several days of scouring too many hours of security footage, you find something that looks promising. What looks to be one of the victims, standing at a crosswalk, when a figure in a baseball cap and sunglasses approaches the from behind. There is a brief struggle during which the missing person is knocked unconscious. The mysterious figures drags their victim into an alleyway. Several minutes later, a van pulls out of the alley and down the street.
However your efforts were noticed by the MCPD cyber-crime division. You were able to isolate your systems before they tracked you down, but they did get access to the information you found. And they’ll be on high alert from now on. This tactic probably won’t work again.​


Kylar Defan: Joining search parties.
Your keen senses and your knowledge of the Forbidden forest help keep the search parties safe during their excursions. However, no clues to the whereabouts of the missing persons is revealed. It can probably be assumed that if people were kidnapped, none of them were taken north.​


Roth Necchi: Using angelic charm and demonic wiles to coax information.
Nobody seems to know anything. Or else they’re more scared of someone than they are affected by your auras. It seems like nothing is going to come of your efforts, until you hit a lead. A psychic mentioned bumping into a guy late last month and had a vision involving him and one of the victims, though they didn’t know it at the time. With a general description, you were able to get a lead on where he might be.


Jake Machin: Using heightened senses to try and track the missing persons.
There’s a lot of ground to cover in the city, and with so many other people the scents are hard to pick up. But you do eventually catch a hint of one of the victims. The trail leads you south, towards the docks before seemingly ending abruptly in the middle of the street.​


Zveris: Searching school security footage for missing student patterns.
Having a much narrower frame than trying to scour the whole city, you find a few results pretty quickly. Every student who went missing on campus seemed to do so when they were out of sight of a camera, usually in a restroom or somewhere else a camera wouldn’t be placed. In all cases, there is a brief electrical disturbance that causes feedback on the video, but it only lasts for a few frames so it is hard to catch.
Interestingly, a number of the students who went missing also seemed to visit the lost and found not long before their disappearance.​


Adamaris Elsa Veritas: General support for the families of the missing.
Your efforts are greatly appreciated by the community, and you enjoy a nice little boost to business as people who visit your shop for the support you offer tend to browse to take their minds off of the disappearances.​


Hazel Arlnest: Searching for missing persons, both In search parties and alone.
Your attempts at searching yield fruit near the end of the week. You actually come across an attempted kidnapping!


Theodore Defan: Using criminal contacts to find information.
It takes some time, some bribery, some blackmail, and in some cases outright threats. But you get a lead on someone who was asking about some of the missing people.

Character Name: Chloe Black
Action Taken: Chloe will try to use a summoning ritual to make her missing daughter Amber appear before her.

FURTHER DETAILS YOU DIDN'T ASK FOR: She has done this kind of thing before, multiple times, and successfully. In one of these cases, she successfully summoned a hostile demon without a true name - Amber is far from hostile, and Chloe knows a lot about her. What I mean to say, DM, is that Chloe has a lot of points in this and she should also get a big circumstance bonus to her roll.

Amber went missing on the night Chloe broke ties with her father. Chloe thinks her father is responsible for this, and she includes that her father is a suspect in her missing persons report. When she makes the attempt to summon Amber, she'll have a GPS tracking device she can place under Amber's skin in case her captor knows a way to call her back with magic, which she thinks is how her father took Amber in the first place.

It is now the second week of the search for the missing persons!

A new week means that you may once again have characters trying to help with the investigation. Those of you who have already posted in the previous week, feel free to use a new character to follow a different angle.
Otherwise, you can use the same character form from the previous week to try and dig deeper into the information you already gathered.

Remember that each week, each member may only have a single character contributing to the investigation in a meaningful way.​
