About the game
Thirteen year old Susanna has disappeared without a trace and the NOPD are powerless to find her. A band of misfits, brought together by their connections to Susanna, will do what the police cannot and bring her home! While not investigators themselves, this group congregates around "The Alligator" club and have seen the dark and magical underbelly of New Orleans with their own eyes. They also know that Susanna might well be connected to the arcane as she is no ordinary teenager. With Susanna's life on the line, the stakes will be higher and more personal than ever. Both The Dark Quarter and The Lost to the Night expansion have their own individual campaigns. These campaigns will feature linked scenarios that carry on choices, character abilities, and skills will carry on between sessions.
