The annual Valentine’s Party at the Triple Phi fraternity is legendary, but the bodies found on the lawn aren’t usually dead. This year, though, basketball star Louis “The Buck” Buckner was hurled from his window during the party. His room was locked from the inside, and his girlfriend, Candy, was in the bathroom at the time. Buckner was thrown with such force he cleared the porch roof on the way to the lawn. When found, his lifeless body was covered in a thin layer of frost, although it was an unusually warm winter’s night. There was no other frost nearby.
You take on the role of a supernatural investigator… perhaps even supernatural yourself. Alongside your team, you’ll uncover the truth and put a stop to the threat.

I have had the good fortune of playing with EJ for over three years, and I have thoroughly enjoyed participating in his player sessions.
He accommodates many different playing styles, from the more carefree players to those generally more meticulous (where I would place myself). Additionally, he welcomes players from all backgrounds and will work diligently to ensure each session is inclusive. Finally, EJ comes to each session well-organized for that game’s planned course of action but is also very adept when the course of a game pivots unexpectedly.
To anyone reading this who is cautious/nervous about making the next step, I would wholeheartedly recommend EJ as a Game Master; he will take the necessary time to guide you to enable you to make the most out of each session with immersive backgrounds and characters.
EJ is an amazing GM. His games are character-driven, dynamic, fun, challenging, and well-prepped. He is always kind, engages everyone, explains rules in a way that is easy to understand, and has a great sense of humor. I’ve played four different RPG systems with EJ — he’s an excellent teacher. Outside of game-time, he’s responsive to questions and ready to give players any support they need.
Having run this game system before, I knew the chances we would survive would be bleak. EJ made the game an exciting and fun experience. He is a wonderful game master, and I would definitely would play in another of his gsmes. Thanks EJ!!
EJ does a great job of building an exciting and engaging atmosphere whether it’s D&D, Cthulhu, or CyberPunk. Which is why I keep coming back, can’t recommend his games enough.
I’ve played a number of games with EJ as DM, now. Every game is always interesting, unique, full of intrigue, humor, action, surprise, sometimes even sadness. He is an excellent DM, he is flexible in his storytelling, and you’d do well to have him run games for you.
