The youngest and most sensationalist news journal based out of Hub City, Illinois, putting out a plethora of podcasts, daily web articles, and a weekly physical newspaper all covering everything from local events and regional sports to political exposes and true crime. One of the most popular columns in the last year has been [u][b]In Search Of With Sage[/b][/u], written by up and coming star Vic Sage. In the column, published biweekly both online and in the paper, Sage covers the history of the occult and paranormal in Hub City and the rest of Cowan County as well as investigating strange occurrences throughout the county for himself.[/i] In his day job, Vic delves into esoteric history books, conducts interviews with experts, and heads out into the field, all in search of the truth behind the myths and legends of Illinois. At night, he dons his faceless mask to investigate the supernatural underbelly of Hub City and the surrounding towns in Cowan County, occasionally crossing paths with the criminal element as well.

This is the Question as I've always wanted to write him, tackling the occult and paranormal in the vein of Carl Kolchak from [i]Kolchak The Night Stalker[/i] or Mulder and Scully from [i]The X-Files[/i]. There will be hints of his typical comic escapades, occasionally busting up a bodega burglar or taking out a local mob outfit, but these will be rarer occurrences in favor of leaning more into supernatural horror. Cults worshiping forgotten pagan deities, isolated towns with dark secrets, ghosts and voodoo and maybe even scary aliens. The sky's the limit. I will mostly be telling self contained stories (wouldn't be a one universe game if I wasn't playing with my toys by myself), but I am open to collaborations and crossovers if myself and the other player(s) are able to come up with something cool.
