Name: Maricopa Elementary School Detective Club
Totem: Duke - Totem of Honor - Loyalty, Protection, and Discovery
Sources of Inspiration: It, Meddling Kids, Mystery Incorporated., and Tales from the Loop
The Maricopa Detective Club is an unrecognized fifth pack of the Desert Shadow Sept and is made up of a handful of children kinfolk who's parents are members of the remaining four. The children all attend Maricopa Elementary, each one individually something of an outcast among their peers but who've come together to form their own clique.
The clique has found itself adopting a minor totem as a patron: Duke. This Totem of Honor has historically only been adopted by kinfolk children. Duke always approaches the clique to offer his patronage, rather than the other way around. His choices vary from group to group, but those lucky enough to find him present discover that all dogs will look favorably on them for the rest of their lives. All Duke ever asks in return is to offer a token of love to any dog they meet.
The Detective Club, under Duke's guidance and protection, has begun to explore the world around them, and the Community in particular. People tend to dismiss children, so the group has made a number of discoveries which might shock their parents. In the process, they've solved a murder (helping a wraith find peace), stopped a group of counterfeiters, and helped end a dog napping ring.
Pack members range in age from 9 to 12.
Special Rules for the Maricopa Detective Club:
When PCs become involved in stories with the kids of the Detective Club, they are entering into a nostalgic adventure involving children. Because these are kids, some things should be understood up front:
1. Children don't die. Bad things might happen to them, but death isn't one of them. No matter how dark things get this is not an outcome which will ever be entertained OOC.
2. The children are smarter than the PCs. You are entering their story, and while the focus of the game will remain on PCs, please realize that as adults you are unimaginative, trapped into thinking inside the box, and always underestimating kids.
3. The world is a place of wonder. Because as adults, you take the world for granted, you have not seen what these kids have seen, discovered the wonders that exist under your very nose.
If you can handle this, I hope to offer you an incredible story.
