Congratulations on Eliminating Two of the Suspects!

You’re not a very good cop. You drink a lot, dislike people and pretty much just took the job so you could have a firearm. If you were in any state other than Vermont you wouldn’t be a state trooper. You wouldn’t have a job, period, actually. But right now you’re a small Vermont town’s only hope.

Five of the five police officers in Tillotson Mill have been murder over the course of the last week, and thanks to the town’s relative unimportance you’re the only person who has been sent to solve the cime. Your superiors think that its probably a small smuggling ring, nothing that you can’t take care of with your violent type A personality, a little gumption and a total lack of oversight giving you carte blanche to kill members of Tillotson Mill’s incredibly small unsavory element.

When you come to town you’ll shoot your lead suspect in the face within seconds of apprehending him in order to both eliminate him as a potential and show the townspeople you mean business. Then you’ll set to asking questions.

Turns out some of the uneducated hicks who call Tillotson Mill have also gone missing recently. And several of the weed smugglers, upon whom the town relies for a full third of their income (the rest accounted for by a combination of surliness and beards) have been found drained of all blood.

You’ll track down the last remaining smuggler and kill him amidst the townspeople’s protests, hoping that’ll stop the murders. But after only one night in the town’s only motel you’ll be awoken by the cries of townspeople. They’ll have found Old Man McGullicutty, the town’s oldest citizen at the age of 37, murdered in his bed. The crime scene will be quite grisly, but there won’t be any clues as to “who-done-it.”

When you ask around you’ll discover that thanks in part to your efforts the entire criminal element of Tillotson Mill has been eliminated. That means you have no more suspects and nothing to do except wait for more clues to come your way, which will happen tonight when vampires attack your motel room.

Congratulations on Eliminating Two of the Suspects!
