MYSTERY DRAMA BASED GROUP VERSE by yours truly. BEAUTIFUL AND DAMNED.

EAU CLAIRE, CONNETICUT –– population: 7,000. Tucked beneath the city scape of Hartford and far removed from any major metropolises, the picturesque town ( filled with equally as picturesque, collar-popping tenants ) strongly leans towards the rural end, boasting of wealth and reeking of a greater immaculateness unparalleled in neighboring suburbs, whilst fetors of stagnancy leech through both residents and residences. Steeped in small town tropes, from the north end to the southernmost border of the city, everyone knows everyone. Secrets are seldom kept and rumours are brought to light in the cruelest examples, although what transpires in the underbelly of the city, unencumbered by a useless force of authorities, remains tactfully unspoken.

19 MAY, 2016: When it was revealed in the Eau Claire Gazette that Caroline Warner, wife of the town’s Mayor, had gone missing, all activity in the city was put to a collective and resounding halt. Warner’s disappearance had been the second of that month, the fourth in a year. The city took another plunder when her body was extracted by a lake in the local park, bruised and overtly beaten, appearance more of a pulp than what it once was : the mayor’s shrewd albeit lascivious spouse. Fingers were pointed, allegations and conspiracies were made and published, the nature of a Salem witch trial encompassing the town of seven thousand in full-throttle. As webs of lies, incidences of indecency, affairs, scandals, and other iniquitous deeds come to light as authorities attempt to uncover the true culprit of Warner’s  murder ––– will you be framed?

PLOT NOTICE: Given that there have been many disappearances, your character is welcomed to be involved in those. However, please message me privately if you’d like your character to be Warner’s killer. Alternatively, your character’s own family members/acquaintances can have gone missing/murdered if you’d like that as a plot point!

for the group verse ( see: HERE ) ; beautiful & DAMNED .

" but wasn't the decision a right one? am i not here? what more could feeling have achieved than was brought about by reason? ”

" but you should recognise this: your decision to come here was a cry for help, however carefully you may have disguised it as a decision based on reason or a sentence imposed on yourself by your intellect. ”

name: dr. henry jekyll / age: 51 / occupation: neurosurgeon / time in eau claire: 2 weeks

short bio: dr. jekyll is anything but a native of eau claire. a city man through and through, he hails from edinburgh, and his stay in the small conneticut city was intended to be a short one, for business only. a few days into his visit, however, the mayor’s wife disappeared, and not long after that, the mutilated body turned up in the lake; after that, the police insisted that no one leave the town until a thorough investigation could be conducted. until the killer’s found, he’s stuck here. 

beneath the friendly demeanour, he’s not as saintly as he’d like to have the world believe. something sick and violent lurks in his chest --- he isn’t the killer in this case, but if certain parts of his past and his tendencies are unearthed, it won’t be easy to convince anyone else of that. 

his name is MYCROFT HOLMES, 52 of age, a FORMER POLITICIAN from UNITED KINGDOM now residing in EAU CLAIRE for ELEVEN YEARS. while he rarely talks about his past, a search on google would provide sufficient amount of material about the man. 

ELEVEN YEARS !!                                               it has been eleven years since he had abandoned MYCROFT and donned ( THE MUNDANE ) MIKE instead , eleven years since the political scandal ( SEE : [ REDACTED ] ) that caused him to resign from his position as the chief of sis , eleven years since he’s fled his country and settle in EAU CLAIRE , eleven years since his first meeting with CAROLINE WARNER and her husband. and only a day since her death. since then, he has been spotted at the mayor’s office in town hall, spending his day consoling the widower –– the mayor of the city , his friend. who knew he could be so compassionate ? 

of course , he’d brush off any accusations thrown at him ; he was their closest friend after all ! he was the one who helped mayor warner into his position and thenceforward acted as the man’s political advisor when need be . he became a frequent guest of the couple’s weekend suppers and vice versa . he was one of the last to leave the initial search party at the time of caroline’s disappearance and the one to grieve the most when her body was found. 

the UNEMPLOYED POPS of EAU CLAIRE possibly with a shady past ( but no more . ) can be seen walking his dog down by the MAIN ST at 6:00 PM on the dot everyday . likes bakes - especially ones with custard filling .
