Vendalus has invited an eccentric group of old friends to celebrate The Day of the Dead, renovating a local manor into a house of horrors for the cities’ social elite. Most of the guests have gone all out for this event, spending impressive amounts of gold on various magical illusions to arrive in the guise of demons, devils and the walking dead. But beneath the air of sophisticated revelry, old grudges are preparing to surface and someone is plotting murder. Stepping innocently into this gathering, our hero is the best hope of bringing the culprit to justice. Can the players help Vendalus figure out who the assassin is before killer escapes?
Here are some screens of the main suspects:









The main interior has been built and I'm down to just moving minor objects around. I've got a good sense of the major plot lines and most of the suspects have solid motives and history with the other guests. The two big things on my list are the opening conversation/cutscene and the conversations with the guests leading up to the big reveal. I'm a little worried that I'll get it all done by the 13th, but I'm trying to stay optimistic. Suggestions are welcome!

The concept sounds very interesting. The screens look good. I look forward to seeing it in game.
I'm a pretty loyal Wendersnaven fan since the first days. Congrats on this new, personal blog. I'm adding it to our blog roll now.
Much appreciated! I've been watching everyone's blogs over here for a long time now. I really should have joined this part of the community a lot earlier. Oh well, better late then never. Thanks again!
agree with EC that the concept sounds good - and I like the twisted array of dinner guests you have for the murder mystery!
I totally dig the cast of characters, and the concept! I'm looking forward to knocking on your door!! :)
Hey, a murder mystery party! That sounds very cool. :) And what an unusual bunch of suspects you have. I'm looking forward to playing this module.
Miss Marple goes monsterous. Great idea! I really hope that you get to finish it in time.
