A game in the Cypher system, led by John Keefe.

The Roaring 20's - Prohibition and organized crime. Tensions of economy, race, and labor. Old power meeting new ideas. You are a gang of misfits at the unofficially-named Office of the Weird, speciality private investigators with a knack for the inexplicable and arcane. A wealthy benefactor's shipment of artefacts has been hijacked by an organized crime ring at the Chicago dockyards. He requires the return of a precious amulet of mysterious power to his collection. You must deal with the criminals in short order - if the amulet is not returned to its buyer by tomorrow, he promises to burn the dockyard to ashes and dredge his item from the lake.

This game will be great if you like Elder gods, weird fiction, body horror, and gangster movies.

Pre-generated characters will be provided.
