Young teens in Midwest suburbia investigating the disappearance of 2 friends. Cops say they're runaways. Adults aren't looking. These girls were your friends! They would have said something... right?
Description:
Heavily simplified/homebrewed rules
No sanity to lose. Instead of sanity loss I use a modified dread track from Sandy Petersen's Cthulhu Mythos for Pathfinder.
Themes should include: Accepting Adversity, Friendship & Goofball kids being "detectives".
TRIGGER WARNING!!!: Themes may include- Child Abduction, Claustrophobia, Hopelessness, Nihilism & Violence
That being said, it should be a light-hearted nostalgic experience centered around a group of kids searching for their friends and coming to terms with the Cthulhu Mythos & the inevitability of change. Could feel like 1985's The Goonies or it could feel like 1991's My girl. I think we'll end up somewhere around 1987's Monster Squad.
