Inquire Reality


Finn was relaxing in his 1 room cubby in Salt Lake City, Utah, when there came a knock at his door.

“Who is it?” Finn said in his best falsetto. Maybe if they thought he was a woman they’d go away. He had too many people looking for him, so the less interaction with strangers he had, the better.

Roll: Persuasion: 3 - no fooling this guy

“Sir, I’m from Western Union. I’ve got a telegram for a Mr Finnegan.”

Finn grabbed his pistol and eased up to the door.

Q: Is the man who he says he is? (Very Likely) Yes

As he opens the door, Finn can see a cheery litte man standing there holding an envalope.

“Are you Mr. Finnegan?”

Finn looked him up and down, and grabbed the envalope, barely grunting out a “Yeah..” as he slammed the door in the courrier’s face.


Plopping back on his bed, Finn opened the letter. Aparently his old editor at the Denver post had managed to track him down.

Dear Finn,
I’ve heard some rumors about a scientist in Salt Lake that may be a good entry for your guide.

Q: Is the scientist famous? (50/50) Yes
Q: Is it Darious Hellstrome? Yes
CQ: What did Hellstrome Invent? Divide Suffering


The famous Dr Darious Hellstrome has declared that he has invented a device that will help reduce hunger across the world. He plans to unveil the device at a galla event for the best and brightest of Salt Lake on the 19th of this month. I’ve managed to get your name on the guest list. I know I really screwed you over back in Denver and I hope this will help make things a little better,

Yours,

NAME: (Knuckleduster Cowtown Creator): Hog Forsythe

Hog Forsythe

Finn was still pissed at Hog but he had to admit that this was a good lead. He crupled up the note, grabbed his hat and headed out the door. The gala was tomorrow after all and he had better get his hair cut and get a good shave if he was to look presentable.

Characters
Dr Darious Hellstrome
Hog Forsythe

Attend the gala and write a story on the device.
