The square immediately around him is the Gatekeeper. These are his creepy servants, who keep him from being discovered and feed him. The larger boxes around them are divided into four paths, which represent different paths you can take to investigate the Crime. The Crime is the outermost layer, which is where the players start.<br /><br />So for example:<br />The Crime is a body, drained of all fluids and mutilated beyond recognition washed up in the river.<br />The four paths you can take to investigate are:<br />- Who was this person when they were alive?<br />- What is the mysterious tattoo on their arm mean?<br />- Who was driving the mysterious black van that was seen here in the morning, right before the police arrived?<br />- Is this body connected to the other disappearances in the area?<br /><br />All these branches should have multiple steps, but should ultimately lead back to the creepy mansion and to the Vampire. The players can win by solving the mystery, then killing or surviving the horror.
