conversations.value: In this story you'll die. A lot. The deaths will be horrific and gory. You'll encounter Lovecraftian beasts, demonic doomsday cults, unnatural serial killers, and far worse as you undergo this sinister experiment conducted by Organization 440.
  
  The Case Files aims to tell a true horror story based on the twenty or so short stories I've written. The basic idea is that your characters are hooked up to a sort of paranormal virtual reality machine to relive the stories that I've written. As you are not the original characters I put into these situations it will be awesome to see how you change the events. If you die in the simulation you exit out to reality with no repercussions, or that's what the Organization tells you at least. Besides your encounters in the simulations you'll also have to contend with some violent confrontations in the real world.
  
  So if you want to try out a Monster/Horrific Situation of the Week horror experience that will keep placing you in new situations with...'relatively' little repercussions please give The Case Files a look. I'm want the focus to be more on your characters and how this changes them as opposed to their actual survival. Play things out like a cheesy B-rated horror film and have a blast doing it!
  
  Note: A few of the older members here may remember this story being attempted in the past. Two years ago I ran The Case Files on a different account and ended up losing the account during a particularly rough move and not finishing the stories. When I attempted The Case Files in the past I didn't have a job that was conducive to writing everyday and on top of that I was playing in a solid twenty other games.
