Sounds like a heck of a game

Go to CommentAn interesting read, and I am looking forward to how they will be dealing with the Slenderman
Go to CommentFun stuff, I'll be looking forward to the next installment!
Go to CommentWow, should have read this one sooner
Go to CommentGreat write up, and these villians can be easilyi recycled for use in pretty near any modern day horror or even supers game with a little work.
Go to CommentAnother fun recap, I can see the over all sub plots intertwining and it sounds as if the players are becoming more comfortable with their chars and group dynamics. One small thing I would enjoy seeing is th ename of each players character included in "The Players" section, it makes it easier when reading the recap to know which char is whom.
I'm also curious, how long are your sessions and how often do you get to play?

Sounds like a fun session with a lot of buy in from the players; from what I've seen players usually adjust their characters silliness/quirkiness to match the tone of the setting over time which should happen here as well hopefully. (It can be a pain to run a serious investigation/police campaign with chars that feel like they belong in the Police Academy movie franchise)
As for them catching the fact that Reese tripped up verbally while trying to describe Grant's standing with the ATF, they could have thought you stumbled as GM rather then the NPC stumbled. When doing such things in my games I usually empathize it with a little OCC description such as "he pauses, for a split second, as if recovering mentally and refocusing on what he was saying, something your trained investigators eye easily caught." While a bit heavy handed, sometimes its necessary to deliver subtle information players will often deliberately ignore in the spirit of it being "just a game."
A fun recap, looking forward to seeing more of these.
