Book Description
A Dame Walks Into Your Office . . . A dead body, no witnesses, and a room full of suspects with perfect alibis. Can you find the killer and bring him to justice? Learn the secrets of mystery fiction - and what will, and will not, work in RPG mysteries. Become a better investigator. Discover the problems you are likely to encounter in a low-tech, magic, super-tech, or horror mystery. GURPS Mysteries covers: Creating mysteries as stand-alone adventures, as part of an existing campaign, or as campaigns in their own right, with specific discussions of the low-tech, modern-tech, future, magic, and horror settings. Setting the crime scene, including detailed forensic information on causes of death, investigation methods, and a forensics timeline. Bringing interesting villains to life, and matching their disadvantages to their motives and means of carrying out a crime. A template-based character-generation system for iconic investigators, including the genius detective, the hardboiled shamus, police detectives, investigating magicians, even "that darn kid." Sample detective and investigative agencies to hire or bedevil characters. Expanded rules for questioning and interacting with NPCs. GURPS Mysteries, by the author of GURPS Cops, is designed both for the GM who wants to create and run mystery adventures and for players who want to become investigators in any setting.

Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
The Secret Masters have denied all knowledge of the various conspiracy theories put forth in GURPS Illuminati. "To begin with, we don't even exist," said a spokesman. "The Illuminati are a myth." He went on to deny specifically that: Everything you read in the tabloids is true! Aliens regularly visit Earth, and are in contact with high government officials. The Men in Black are everywhere, and will snatch you from your home if you ask too many questions or just see something you shouldn't see. Orbital Mind Control satellites cruise the skies, influencing international politics and deciding the fates of billions. The Gnomes of Zurich control the world's monetary supply, and manipulate it to fit their own sinister plans. The world is such a complex web of secrets, mysteries and conspiracies that nobody really knows what is happening. But everyone in power lies . . . all the time. The only real way to protect yourself is to join the conspiracy. But even then, you'll never know who is pulling your strings. Everything you know is a lie. Everything you suspect is true. The world is a very strange place. Hail Eris! All Hail Discordia! The publishers of GURPS Illuminati, Steve Jackson Games, admitted that it was a work of fiction, but added, "It's all true anyway! Just look at the book. It's closer than you think."
