Welcome to Purgatory High School. A small, prestigious high school for the mentally (and financially) gifted.
This Monday morning started as always with breakfast in the Main Hall. The only difference is that the headmaster, Professor Poe, fell dead mid-sentence into his bowl of oatmeal. Now the students all have to prove, before the cops will let them out of the school, that not only did they not do it, but who did poison Professor Poes breakfast.
You, my fellow role players, will play the students who have to solve this. I'll provide the clues to each room of the house that they go into. I'll play the suspects (unless someone specifically requests a certain suspect), so as to keep the results to one person (its no fun if everyone already knows how this ends).
The Suspects (and motives) are as follows (more will be added to as the students discover more):
Mrs. White:
Head of the Janitorial Staff
Feels that Prof. Poe was a cheapskate because he never gave her a raise for her thirty years of service.
Officer Mustard:
Head of School Security
Poe owed him a small fortune in Poker winnings.
Professor Plum:
Head of Science Department
Poe kept cutting his budget for his classes and major projects.
Professor Green:
Head of Math Department
He owed Poe a small fortune in Rummy winnings.
Professor Azul:
Head of English Department
Next in line for being Headmaster
Professor Scarlet:
Head of Art Department
Poe threatened to fire her for not sleeping with him, so self defense is feasable
