Finn Edwards

Finn Edwards, the Bootlegger, is a character created by Fantasy Flight Games who appears in several of their expanded Cthulhu Mythos lines.
== History ==
The advent of Prohibition was nothing less than a godsend for small-time drifter Finn Edwards: until that point, he had been simply meandering through life, scratching out a living wherever he could, but the new demand for alcohol on the streets of America gave him the opportunity to make some serious money and, more importantly, feed his craving for danger.
All of this ended one night when, after a botched supply run, Finn found himself tearing through the woods one moonlit night, just a little ahead of the deranged cultists who wanted to sacrifice him to their dark god.
Narrowly escaping, and shaken to his core, Finn gathered up all the cash, firearms and supplies he could lay his hands on, resolving to make those lunatics pay for giving him the fright of his life.
== Ghouls of the Miskatonic ==
Edwards' character is expanded upon in Graham McNeill's novel Ghouls of the Miskatonic. In the story, Finn joins forces with other investigator characters from the Arkham Horror Files line, including journalist Rex Murphy, to rescue Amanda Sharpe and Rita Young, students who have been kidnapped by an evil cult. During the course of their journey, Edwards and the others travel to other dimensions and must face monstrous ghouls, but eventually emerge triumphant.
==Behind the Mythos==
Conceived as an Investigator character for their Innsmouth Horror expansion of adventure board game Arkham Horror, Finn Edwards has also made appearances Fantasy Flight's Eldritch Horror, Arkham Horror: The Card Game, and Mansions of Madness lines. A now-discontinued plastic miniature was released as a part of their Arkham Horror Premium Figures issue in 2010, which was designed to replace the cardboard tokens included with the games (all ).
