Southvale is the 3^rd most populated city in ██████████. It boasts an illustrious history, the Milo Center (the renowned performance art conservatory, eponymous of playwright Robert Milo, not the stuffed-cake treat), the most expansive selection of fossils of any non-private collector in the northern hemisphere, and the highest instance of homicide per capita of any city in the country.


here's more or less what you need to know about the paranormal investigation group:

• Very creatively named Southvale Investigations.
• Has existed in some form or another for ~14 years. Membership has waxed and waned over the years.
• Of the original 4 person team, the longest-involved was Cynthia Wiles. At some point last autumn, Cynthia severed all ties with Southvale Investigations.
• Some 80 people have called themselves members of Southvale Investigations since its inception. A few of these keep in contact with current members. Others? Restraining orders.
• Southvale Investigations has an "office" downtown; it's more of a closet than an actual office. There are a few files on previous cases in a rusty filing cabinet - as you can imagine, paperwork's not incredibly popular.
• More often than not, Southvale Investigations winds up tracking down lost pets and spying on cheating lovers than actually investigating anything "strange". They advertise in the phonebook, but otherwise rely on word of mouth and hand-drawn business cards.
• Southvale Investigations, almost without exception, is regarded as a side-project by its current members. The shift from quasi-legitimate business venture to... substantially less than that, has happened over the last year.
• Southvale Investigations isn't what you'd call financially prosperous, especially in the wake of Cynthia's departure.
