Monster Squad Control

Introduction

This is a GUMSHOE scenario designed to be played via video-chat software such as Skype or Google Hangouts. You and your fellow players are Control Room Administrators for Monster Squad, an Internet-based startup that kills monsters for a reasonable fee. Most of you work from home, though hotdesking facilities are available at the branch offices, which Monster Squad has in Seattle, Melbourne, and – for tax reasons – Grand Cayman.
When working on a mission, you communicate by video conferencing. Your GM plays the Operative – your agent on the ground. You can only communicate with the Operative through audio (i.e. the GM’s camera will be turned off).
