Ten years have passed since the disappearance of the World's Greatest Detective, the last one to bear the badge of the Meitantei, also known as the Badge of Pallas, during the investigation of his most mysterious case.

A whole decade after this mysterious event, the granddaughter of the previous Meitantei decided to issue a world wide competition to choose who will be the next one to inherit the title of World's Greatest Detective. Those invited to the competition received a letter containing but a riddle and a blank world map, only those who could decipher it would be admitted on the competition, which came to be known as the... Detective Wars.

Annabel Island, a formerly uninhabited island a few days off of the coast of Southern Australia, that was the stage chosen to hold the competition between the 12 best detectives of the whole world as well as their assistants. The granddaughter of the previous Meitantei spent a fair share of her fortune to built a modern days city as well as other installations on the island, including a Train Station that is the only link between Annabel City and the Docks, which connect the island to the outside world.

Completely cut from the outside world, save for a single phone line on the Granddaughter's Mansion, the competitors will have to solve a series of riddles, until someone claims the ultimate prize, the Badge of Pallas itself, as well as the tittle of Meitantei.

Welcome all!

As you can see this is my attempt at doing a detective mystery RP (something that's seriously lacking around here), there's not much description because the story should be very straightforward for anyone that's into this genre. To put it simply, 12 -or is it 13?- of the best detectives of the world, each with their own ways of solving mysteries, be it through science, pure intellect, or even alleged paranormal means are stuck on an island in the middle of the South Pacific, competing for the title of World's Best Detective, or Meitantei, since this RP has a lot of inspiration on anime detective fiction.

[pre]Whoever wins the competition will be showered with praises and fame, as well as the Badge of Pallas, the Goddess of Wisdom who guides all detectives, believe them or not. While it's not a explicitly supernatural artifact, the Badge is made of solid gold and does give the wearer a world wide jurisdiction to investigate mysteries, certainly a prize worthy the challenge. But, is it just so simple of a game? Well, that's what we are about to find.[/pre]
