Dunwich: A Creepypasta Panfandom Game

Okay, it happened again for me. Has anyone else lost another shocking weekend?

Looks like this is where I introduce myself.

God, I need a drink.

Sorry, guess I should introduce myself. My name's Ben.

I have finally done it. It might have taken me several tries and a few experiments with some different cocoa beans (thank you, Kate, I sent you two boxes) but I eventually was able to make the truffles just like back home. Or at least as close to how I remember. To be fair, it was awhile ago so I hopefully remembered it well enough.

That being said, you all should have boxes of chocolate truffles delivered to you by end of day. These were treats back at the college I grew up in so I do hope you enjoy them as much as I did. A little sweet treat in these ghostly times. Who else has been visited by faces from their past?

[ Lyra ]
I set aside a box for you and Tandy to share. And if you think you’re ready to join me in the kitchen, I can show you how to make them.

[ Alexis ]
How’s Miss Adventure doing?

[ Daimon ]
Don’t suppose you fancy chocolate at all?

How does one take a vacation when you can't go anywhere?

DUNWICH PD:

We're getting a police dog.

ST CREW:

We're getting a dog.

A few months ago, I asked for people with potential for emergency responders. I think it's time to not only update that, but put some people in charge of aspects of it.

• SEARCH AND RESCUE: There's a very specific set of skills needed for search and rescue. Physical training is an absolute necessity. FEMA has training courses to develop your Search and Rescue skills. I won't be taking anyone in this position who does not have a certification in first aid or CPR. Especially give that Sam Wilson does training for this on Sundays.
  
• FIGHTING: I don't care how you fight, just know that if we get a call for fighting, we're going to need all the people we can get.
  
• MAGIC: Whether this is magical fighting or just spells to dissuade people, clarify.
  
• MEDICAL/HEALING: What it says on the tin. Liv Moore is in charge of Medical here at Mist, so I'm going to put her in charge of this.

YELENA:

Drink?

I've seen a few people looking for work. Just a friendly reminder that I have some openings at the Pickman front desk if you'd like some extra hours, or you can pick up both openings if you want closer to full time.


[LOKI]

Hey, so weird question. Want to take a look around in the basement with me to make sure the homicidal axe wielding ghost hasn't escaped? No one's said anything, but with all the ghost talk on the network I thought maybe we should be more proactive.

[ Padmé ] : I'm going to inquire about getting work so I can contribute to necessary funding. I was thinking of asking the task force they have here...I'm already offering to train and help with swords. I can't help but think it would be a waste if I didn't offer my true skills.

Do you think this is a good idea?

[ Natasha ] : I hope you are doing considerably well after all you've been through. Yelena was concerned but she did a very good job in keeping things in order while you were out. Not that I needed to tell you, but she's very good at what she does.

She also told me I needed to inquire officially with you about a time slot for Sword Practice at MIST. I thought Mondays for two hours sometime in late morning to noon would be alright. Please let me know your thoughts and anything else I need to do on the matter.

[ Sheriff Hopper ] : Are you the right one to contact if I would like to inquire about a job in helping with the defenses and peace keeping in town?

[ Yelena ] : How are you feeling?

[ Din Djarin ] : Thank you for helping me. I take it the youngling is doing well?

SPAWN Eddie

We can see ourselves in the infernal device, if you were not aware. You touch the circle of arrows and it will show you your face. I was taught this magic recently.

I'll need to find a tailor's shop in this town, I suppose, if I'll be here for long. Some of the fashions I've seen here are ghastly. Rags you'd find in a barrel would look better. If you think I'm talking about you, I probably am.

Now that things are cooling off a little bit, I have questions.

1. Has anyone noticed anything weird about themselves since The Shitty Shattering? That's what I'm calling the time we raided the church and fucked up their window and then it grew back.

2. Has anyone noticed any weird memory gaps since the Battle of the Brains? That's what I'm calling that time we had a dance fight something something psychics vs Fuckface.

Are you psychic? Do you have a way to get into people's minds? We'll need you for the upcoming battle. How many of you have battled on the psychic plane? Not the physical plane? From what I'm gathering, Vecna doesn't like to play fair and sticks mostly to his psychic plane for battles. We'll be heading straight into the trance as soon as we're able, so be ready.

Those of you without psychic powers who want to help, we can still use you. I can link all of us together. Your psychic energy will boost the psychics. You will feel fired and run down, so do not volunteer unless you can be some place safe.

If anybody needs to grab something quick to eat, after I run to Roxxcart for supplies I'm going to start putting together brown paper bag lunches at MIST, wherever I can tuck myself out of the way.

You can swing by and grab something or I can run it to you if you can't leave where you are.

Sandwiches, chips, maybe some carrot sticks or celery, bottled water.

(OoC: backdated to Sunday around sunset, at the time of this thread)

Good evening,

Miguel and I believe that Ava Starr has become Vecna's latest victim. She is currently floating above the roof of Pickman House after suffering from headaches and hallucinations. Miguel is asking if anyone knows what her song might be.

Thank you very much,

Lyla

[There are no words to the post, only a series of beeps that have an inquisitive edge to them.]

Tonight is the peak of the Perseid Meteor Shower, if anyone is game to want to get their minds off of things. You can bring your headphones and music if that's something you want to do.

We may not see a lot of them considering it's overcast but I'm still going to watch it.

I lost a dear friend yesterday morning to this curse. Nell was very special and, well, a whole lot of us come from tragic backgrounds, some have abilities that just attract it honestly. She was incredibly supportive to everyone and didn't judge any of us for our flaws. So, I'm going to try to make her proud, try to make this right as best any of us can.

I know Jake runs the generalized support group and Sam has offered up help during that too, but if anyone has any addiction problems that all of this makes worse, I will be holding meetings every night until further notice.

If anybody needs me I'll be in my apartment for the foreseeable future. Word is the headaches are prominent through the community, so, I'm not looking to spread it if it's a virus or something.

[Private to Friends]

Anybody willing to check in with me at least once a day? Just in case this is a new kind of 'haywire' that's about to kick off.

I forgot that I needed to do the paperwork, but it is now official.

I AM NOW THE GUARDIAN OF TOBIAS!

So just a reminder that if you're going to experiment with the ghost line or try to find a way home, either by magic or science, please let us know at MIST what you've tried or experienced? And in return, full transparency on the research we collect.

If you have any questions about the work we're doing, my door is open. Thanks.

For those of you from other places, how do you...find materials to make clothes? I've had just this one set for a long time but it's starting to sprout holes in various places. And I used the machine once to clean and lost my sweater. It turned so small I don't know if it would fit a nelwyn!

[Private to Boorman]

Do...should I be working in the kitchens somewhere? I feel like I should be doing something to earn my keep. Though everyone at Pickman is very very nice.

Someone seems to have accidentally mistaken me for someone else and has given me their transmitter. Would anyone be kind enough to direct me on how to return it to them?

I can't sense There's an odd obstruction around the area encompassing the town and further. Does anyone have a ship that can get through, per chance?

Lux & Ezreal

Permitting is completed and we've gotten the barn cleaned out and all of the basic utilities set up. We'll still need to install nicer lighting and sinks and furniture and things to make it the home you really want, but we're one step closer?

Found Family

Standing family dinners, Saturday afternoons? Or would Sundays generally be better? No need to rsvp, just show up if you'd like to, bring a dish if you can, and if you can't, that's alright, too. We might as well make it a tradition!

Customers of Time & Again! I just wanted to let you know that I'm now taking custom clothing orders. If you have any specific clothing needs or just cannot find clothes that are comfortable for you, please reach out to me or one of my employees and we can discuss what you are looking for and how we can make it happen for you.

Additionally, I never want money to be an issue. If you are unable to afford what you would like to purchase, I am willing to accept barters in goods or services- please speak with me and we can work something out! Hours in the shop helping with hanging up stock or setting up a window display- I'm willing to work with you based on your talents and need.


And if you know of any seamstresses or anyone willing to learn, I will gladly hire additional help!

It's aliiiiiive.



The hardware all works at least, I still have to get everything working together properly. There's 40 nodes in that case and another twenty in a case sitting on the floor with room to expand it. (Please no one tell my boss to look into how much use I've made of the store's wholesale ordering discount.) And since all great custom builds need a name, in honour of Beowulf and great contributions to arts and culture I've dubbed it Skibidi.

Hello, my name is Senator Padmé Amidala. I'm afraid that I'm not familiar with this world. Can someone please tell me what sector it is in, and where I can find a ship to hire to take me back to Coruscant?

ARRIVAL

The thick, ghastly haze of the mist, once practically opaque to the naked eye, fades and opens up to a nostalgic homegrown New England town. A friendly gazebo, freshly painted white sits on a neatly mown lawn at the center of the town square. Vehicles stop at the redlight while locals cross the street, birds chirp in the trees, and a school bus stops to pick up a few children in oversized backpacks. Pedestrians walk by you without a second glance. Did they not see you suddenly appearing out of nowhere? How could they not have noticed that all encompassing fog? And why doesn’t your obviously otherworldly attire catch their attention? This appears to be a small, close knit community. And it’s clear you’re not from around these parts.

But these are simply the first of many mysteries you’re about to discover.

The further you investigate your new surroundings, the more ominous this seemingly quaint and colloquial town becomes. There’s something dark beneath its pleasant guise. You can’t shake the chill at the back of your neck and the sense that someone—or something—is watching you. Then there’s the odd graffiti on the alleyway walls and the way the locals talk about certain locations. And while the mist is gone, there are places in town that make you reminisce about the mist. Places that feel supernaturally thin. Thin enough to let in whispers from the other side. Or maybe even screams.

And don’t worry if you hear laughter or the jingling chimes of carnival coming from the rain gutters in the street. That’s just your imagination. There’s nothing down there.

Nothing that floats.
