Chapter 1: Investigator

A collage of diagrams, maps, and small items litters
the wall, pinned with nails and connected by a
spiderweb of colorful strings. An elf stands nearby,
contemplating the mystery splayed out in front of her
and readying her crossbow for work.

A half-orc wearing a wide-brimmed hat leafs
through a thick tome, double-checking the
preparations: a sturdy net trap, holy symbols on the
doors, cloves of garlic, and several dozen wooden
stakes. The preparations made, the half-orc slinks into
the shadows and readies himself for the bloodshed.

Hastily tracing symbols in chalk, a human wearing
a long coat whirls about in a wide arc, completing a
rough magic circle in mere seconds. A monstrously fat
demon, blood dripping with its drool, lunges at him,
but instead impacts off an invisible magical barrier, a
cylinder raised from the circle’s edge. The fiend howls
with rage, and the inquisitor breathes a sigh of relief.

Supernatural detectives and monster slayers,
investigators are always on the hunt for malevolent
outsiders. Whenever evil seeps into the world—be it
fiends, undead, or strange abominations from beyond
the stars—investigators will be the first to locate them
and banish their foul corruption from the mortal
plane.

Paranormal Investigators

There are forces more ancient than time, foes more
sinister than the foulest men, and beings more titanic
than gods. The world stands at a precipice of woe and
terror, being threatened nightly by dark agents and
hordes of monsters. At risk to their own lives and
sanities, investigators penetrate the evil that creeps
in the shadows and banish it from the world. Their
battles are never-ending, for victory only delays
doomsday another night.

Investigators track supernatural threats ranging
from incorporeal spirits, to nefarious vampires and
lycanthropes, to incursions of demons and devils.
Often in their investigations, they often uncover
secret cults and maligned individuals who bring these
supernatural threats to bear. It is always their goal
to impede these evildoers by any means necessary,
resorting to trickery, guile, magic, and bloodshed
when necessary. To an investigator, no tactic is
unthinkable when the world is at stake.

Exorcists and Occultists

Even as they strive to contain its influence
from the world at large, investigators dabble
in forbidden magic to give themselves an
edge against supernatural threats. Prepared
investigators keep a well-stocked grimoire
of magical secrets, containing rituals,
incantations, notes on monsters’ powers
