This role play is inspired by The Silent Hill video game and film series. Players will be anywhere from ordinary Housewives who have no combat experience all the way to Ex-Military hot shots who could wrestle crocodiles. Nothing powerful or supernatural is possessed by the players at first. The Town of Ashen Hill has been deserted since 1970. It was once a coal rich town, and somewhat of a boom town even after most of the coals companies shut down. It was ready to make a comeback as a more important little town before it was deserted forty years ago. It had several thousand residents living in the area, until the fires underneath the town started to burn, unleashing corrupting pollution into the streets and water supply, making it unsafe for occupation. Such a shame, it was so successful and vibrant for a town it's size. Legends suggest that the local coal mine is haunted, and that the entire town is actually haunted as well.
Today, only around sixteen inhabitants actually live in the outskirts of the town, where they have access to clean water and power. The are around two dozen more inhabitants of the town living in a small community just three miles outside the former town of Ashen Hill. In addition, there is a very large estate of the local "Richie Rich" as he is known. He lives with his wife, grown children, and three of his friends. Altogether, the census of Ashen Hill combined with it's immediate neighbors has counted up to barely more than one hundred inhabitants of the entire area, not counting the customers staying in the local motel. Ashen Hill and surrounding areas are currently receiving new neighbors, that's where you, the player, come in. More than a few houses are being built either in the community up north of the town it'self, and there are a few houses even being built in the actual town it'self.
You've been in town for four days. You are just having a normal day, minding your own business, when suddenly. . .
