You have been working with Beacon News as a reporter for about two years now, and you're pretty proud of yourself. Here you are with your dream job, making your own living, and finally moving up in life. While you're usually given writing assignments and columns, you're true ambition is to get out in the field and do investigative journalism. You've voiced this to your bosses many times.

Beacon News is an online news and media source that hosts a wide array of stories from all over the globe. They run charities, promote people in need, and are generally pretty accurate with their reports. They have a website with a wide plethora of stories, reports, and written and video documentaries. Beacon is best known for their ballsy journalism into topics that others wouldn't touch with a ten foot stick: reporting on vicious street gangs, drug rings, prostitution, smuggling trails, and all sorts of things that have lead to reporters getting arrested, injured, and perhaps even killed. Whatever happened to Kevin?

But regardless of the risk, you were eager to hop into the company in hopes that one day, you would be out there living the adventurous life of investigative journalism. That's why, when you were offered an opportunity to get out of the office and hunt down a story, you jumped for it.

It's late September, and Beacon is looking for a spooky story to highlight of their front page for a bit of a 'Halloween special'. A front page story! They specified wanting a video mini-documentary filmed for this particular scoop, and so far, everyone else has turned it down. You, on the other hand, are eager to show that you can be of value in the field. You took the assignment without hardly even looking at the description. Later, when you got home, you sat down to read to collection of information.

"Man with no mouth sighted across North America."

"Exorcist not associated with Catholic church sought for potential murder charges."

"This man killed my son. He's a monster."

"Demon worshiping cult suspected for recent missing woman."

"Catholic church denounces involvement of recent exorcisms being performed across the nation. Man behind them is described as deformed."

All you have to work with is about five pages of sighting, brief interviews, and loose ends. A blurry picture of a willowy man, taken by what looks like a security camera, is provided. The man, walking down a dark street, has his lower face obscured by a scarf. He has dark hair, and he seemed to have paused to look directly at the camera when the picture was taken. The image creeps you out a little. The brief sightings and witness interviews claim that he's a 'freelance exorcist', not associated with the Catholic church. He may also be a murderer, as a couple of his victims died during the process of the exorcism. This is the man that Beacon wants you to find and shoot a mini-documentary on.

Notes:

1: So obviously, I'm looking for someone to fill the journalist role. They can be either male or female.

2: This is NOT going to be a romance RP. Let's just put that on the table now. I do no see any potential romance between the journalist and the second main character.

3: I would prefer you to be 18+, but since there will be no sexual themes in this RP, it's not crucial.

4: I do not intend for the journalist to have any powers or whatnot.
