Connecting the Dots

Margo's straight hair hovers between brown and blonde and never stays in its hair tie. She carries four such ties around her wrist, just in case one breaks. Notebooks, pens, binoculars, and disposable cameras fill her messenger bag that's always draped over her shoulder. What meager exercise she gets is from carrying that bag around on her many investigations.   Her conspiracy blog - Silent as the Graves - covers mysteries from cold cases to cryptids. Every article and video is meticulously researched and pulls info from the dark reaches of both the internet and real life. She's focused on weird events she can investigate in-person, and though her Patreon subscribers and Ko-Fi donations keep her afloat, she doesn't have much of a travel budget.   She's incredibly observant and connects seemingly disparate facts to devise wild theories, often forgoing sleep until she's found an answer that satisfies. Yet these answers often aren't provable with concrete evidence, and few people take her theories seriously. In some circles, she's even called the "ctyptidiot", though she considers the pushback to be a sign she's on the right track.

Clint

(Monstrous) (Main Character) FBI agent with a calm and collected personality.

Asks Dima for the wrong kind of help for someone who "works for the FBI." His lies hide something big, and Margo's determined to figure out what it is.
Dima
Character | Oct 17, 2024

(Monstrous) (Main Character) A kind-hearted human who's involved in the extraordinary.

Margo's cousin from Russia. He's become a close friend since he moved to the city years ago, yet she's continually frustrated with how rose-tinted his glasses are.
Naoise
Character | Oct 17, 2024

(Monstrous) (Protagonist) Half-human exile from the Unseelie court.

That he occasionally works with Clint says there's more to him than being an unsettling person at Agatha's coffee shop. Margo especially doesn't like how he looks at her cousin.
