A Meh-rathon Murder Mystery!

Eccentric billionaire steam mop mogul Dallas McAllen has been murdered! And in his own home, no less, while a great party raged on. With 30 suspects and clues galore (some helpful, others less so) only Sadie Dufresne–an Inspector of the Royal Knights order (shorthand: IRK), one of the highest ranking detectives in all the land–can be trusted to solve the mystery. But she’ll need your help. So, what do you say? Will you help IRK Dufresne crack the case?

Hattie Marshall doesn’t consider herself a groundskeeper of the McAllen estate. She thinks of herself as The Keeper of the Grounds. It sounds more epic and thus allows her one way to live out her ultimate fantasy: feeling like a superhero. Another way? Through the collection of FanMan comics. Initially, she’d chosen FanMan as her favorite comic book superhero simply because the comics were easier to acquire, given there were fewer collectors. But over time, she came to love him, and she has always wanted the entirety of his catalog. But her collection is one issue short: Issue Number Five, FanMan versus The Rent Raiser. A copy comes on the market so rarely that when she saw one on her favorite auction site two weeks ago, she figured it was a scam. But no, there it was, certified real and authentic. She bid. And she bid. And she bid. She offered every dime in the account she’d set up for such things. And still, she couldn’t win the auction. Instead, the comic went to user Dal_McAll. Hattie seethed and seethed until her employer asked if she wouldn’t mind helping out during the party. “It’d be a little extra money,” Dallas McAllen had said with what Hattie perceived to be a knowing smile. “Maybe you could buy something you like.” Hattie imagined he meant to sell her the comic for more money than he had bid, a cruel thing to do for someone so monied as him, making a paltry little profit on something she held dear. But nonetheless, she agreed to work his party. Maybe to make the money. Or maybe to enact her revenge…
