This campaign will touch on religious trauma and cult tactics, LGBTQIA+ identities,Pagan Beliefs, Witchcraft, and the supernatural.

Players will fill out a consent form and will have the option to set boundaries for what they are comfortable with.

As the Keeper, I will do my best to work within the boundaries given by the Hunters, but in the event something gets to be too much, any person at the table may pause, or ask for something to be stopped immediately, no questions asked.

**TRIGGER WARNING**

{synopsis}

You are a part of a team being sent to investigate the small midwest town of Stone Haven, Illinois by The Invisible Agency (TIA). 

Several reports of strange events, mysterious deaths, and unexplained disappearances were started with the agency over the last 10 years regarding the town, but were later discarded as ‘incomplete’ for various reasons, including witnesses rescinding their testimony or simply not completing the questionnaire fully.

Someone within the agency, that was familiar with the town, started to look up the reports and found them filed as incomplete and began to pour over the data that TIA did have on Stone Haven.

Common threads in the reports all talk about the connection the community of Stone Haven has with the local church.  Almost all members of the community are members of the church, and all town events and groups run through the church.

You and your team will infiltrate and investigate the town and community of Stone Haven, attempting to gather information about the mysterious disappearances and deaths, all while trying to avoid suspicion.  If you succeed, you may find the answers to the mysteries placed in front of you; if you are lucky, you might even make it out alive.
