Jessica Fletcher Syndrome

Value
Frequently, Major: 15 Points
Description
The character has an uncanny knack for being in the vicinity of murders and suspicious deaths. Any time the character goes to a new town or to a special occasion, a murder will occur, almost always requiring him to solve it. If the character avoids new locations or experiences, the murders will come to him. The character will quickly become acquainted with a number of police officers, especially in the Homicide Division. Death becomes the character's constant companion, and soon everyone knows at least the vague outlines of his exploits. The character will be invited places based solely on their expertise with solving murder cases, and eventually people will notice the statistical improbability of these murders always happening around the character.
It is recommended that the character invest in skills and perks helpful to an amateur detective. Characters with this Complication often also have the Psychological Complications Must Leave No Crime Unsolved, Nosy, and Cannot Turn Down a Challenge. They may also be Monitored by the Police (there must be some reason people keep dying around the character, right?).
