March 15th, 1922. Somewhere in Europe.
MURDER has struck the Salander estate on this of all evenings. Seven are suspect but who is the killer? And more importantly, why?
Mr. Salander was never truly a pleasant man. Even to those closest he was the cold and arrogant type. But of the many who despised him there were a few who could stand him. Or at the very least, his money. Yes Alfred Salander was immensely wealthy. Entrepreneur and women's lingerie tycoon, Salander has made his fair share of money over the years. And tonight as a celebration of sorts. Salander has invited some of his closest colleagues and contemporaries. To mark this night the eve in which Salander's lingerie company made their third billionth dollar. He has pulled out all the stops for a dinner even as small as this. Wanting to wow and surprise his guests. Something which is most certainly a rarity for Salander. But it seems this evening may hold more than just good company and good food....
So sit back and enjoy as our Suspects are introduced. And have a glass of wine why don't you? I hear the Chardonnay is just to die for...
Our Suspects. (AKA BSN people who are playing the characters)
Mrs. Penelope Peacock (Mousestalker)
Friend and business partner to Mr. Salander. Mrs. Peacock has made her small fortune from a number of profitable investments as well as being Salander's personal accountant. Having just returned from the Cayman Islands for business on behalf of Mr. Salander. Mrs. Peacock has been on edge around Salander. Though that isn't saying much considering the type of man Salander is. Ever since she's arrived however something between the two has been slightly off kilter....
Ms. Julia Scarlet (Corvus I)
Famed photographer and journalist. She's made quite the name for herself in the media. Known for her firecracker personality and adventurous spirit, she's been willing to go and see the places other can't or wont. She met Silvia Salander, Mr. Salander's "wife", five years ago while working on a story in Istanbul. They apparently were staying in same hotel, and after a few cocktails and exciting conversations they struck up a friendship....to say the least. After a while Scarlet started writing a few pieces for Salander to help raise some good PR for the lingerie business. But apparently after a few "creative direction" discrepancies the two have been at ends...
Dean Grant, P.I. (Mybudgee)
Things were pretty rough on the force for Dean, and after cracking the case of The Swahili Strangler. Well....things just weren't the same for ol' Dean. Knowing he couldn't fully leave that life behind Dean decided to go into Private Investigations. Dean's known Mr. Salander for years now. After saving Salander's skin in a bar room brawl, during Salander's semester abroad. Both Dean and Salander remained somewhat close. And after Dean became a P.I. he's worked on a few case's for Salander regarding some internal scandals in the North American branch of the Salander lingerie dynasty. But after being gone for the last couple of months. And supposedly being spotted boarding a train in Cairo. Rumors are spreading he may now be associated with the notorious Mr. Notorious, a gun runner. Dean seemed rather frank with Salander after sending a telegram regarding the incident. So much distress between the two has this caused that Dean and Salander's friendship may hang in balance...
