## History

### The Murder at Crescent Hill

After Jancy True formed the team, she assigned the detectives to their first case, the Murder at Crescent Hill, although True had already solved the case.

When the Drawtectives arrived at Crescent Hill, they met the B-squad of police officers, which consisted of Sergeant Pierce Steel and Officers Inna Urfass, Till Bogan and Flem Mucowsy. Officer Yourfas had already sorted the witnesses into the rooms of the mansion. The Drawtectives went upstairs to the master bedroom, where the murder of Sorin Justice took place. They were then tasked to draw their theories for how Sorin was killed. York theorized that he slipped on his drool and fell on his own fork while eating a human leg. Grendan claimed that he got caught in the midst of a "lady duel" between Lotta Justice and a shape-shifting rhino named Tulip. Rosé suggested that a possessed sword stabbed him in the pec.

The Drawtectives later met Lotta, the sad, grieving widow of Sorin Justice. She informed them about the threatening letter sent to them which led to the murder of her husband. They then went downstairs to the kitchen and met chef Buzz and interning chef Don Jovi. The entire detective team was instantly enamored by Buzz and his adorableness. Don Jovi then asked the team to inspire him by drawing delicious food creatures. York drew a picture of himself flexing inside of a cauldron, while Grendan and Rosé drew a herd of dumplings and a cake turtle respectively.

Soon after, the Drawtectives arrived in the conservatory, where they met Avis Smythe and his son Ogalvy. Ogalvy had the three detectives draw three of his favorite cartoon characters upside-down. York had to draw a muscular cowboy riding a gun horse, Rosé drew a woman with big hair and lots of swords riding a train and Grendan had to draw a three-headed, six-legged dog riding a bicycle.

The team then moved on to the parlor, where they met the musician Faucon, who asked them to draw covers for her favorite albums, including King Citrus' *In the Court of the Crimson String*, Electric Tom's *Goodbye Yellow Slick Toad* and Freak Out! at the Club's *A Weaver You Can't Out-Bet*. Grendan was also inspired to silence the last letter of his name, taking inspiration from the way Faucon pronounces her name. This eventually evolves into the nickname "Grandma".

Afterwards, the Drawtectives moved to the backyard where they met Harper Justice, daughter of Lotta and Sorin. She was quite irritating towards the detectives, York even peeing near her to show his disrespect for her. They were tasked to draw themselves in sad and compromising situations. For example, Grandma had to draw himself losing a dog-walking competition to Todd Walker the #1 Dog-Walker and Rosé had to draw herself as a middle-aged accountant. York was prompted to draw himself as a urinating kitten but refused to do so, using his Miscommunication ability to avoid the challenge. Instead, Rosé used her Millennial ability to do his challenge for him. In the end, Harper didn't give them any clues, wasting both York and Rosé's once-a-series abilities.

Soon after, they all arrived in the pantry, where they met Sam Ug, who they had previously received an arrest report for. She initially refused to admit that she had been arrested and was fairly silent on anything having to do with Sorin's murder. Grandma, however, used his Dog Whisperer ability to get the truth out of Sam. She revealed information about the Justice family, saying that Lotta had once been a legendary thief herself and is leading a secret information network for thieves and spies. Sam was invited to the party at Crescent Hill to keep an eye out for suspicious behavior, as the Justice family had received a ransom note threatening to kill Sorin. After confessing everything she knew, Sam had the Drawtectives draw different things, continuously changing the tools they were using. Grandma drew a distorted portrait of Sam, York drew a picture of a man holding a potato and Rosé drew a picture of Grandma's head on Jancy's body.

The detectives moved on to the dining room, where they met Emery Justice, the son of Lotta and Sorin. He told the trio everything he knew about the night and then proceeded to ask them for flattering drawings of himself. So, Grandma drew him defeating the rhino that Grandma thinks killed Sorin. Rosé drew Emery on a throne, surrounded by treasure, portraits of York and York's feet pics. York begrudgingly drew a portrait of Emery successfully defeating a wild train. After completing the drawing challenge, Emery gave the detectives a blank notepad he found in the master bedroom, which (with the help of Jancy) they found out was hiding something. By rubbing graphite over the page, a list was revealed of all the people the Justice family trusted in case of an emergency.

After their interaction with Emery, the Drawtectives entered the study where they met Dr. Susan Fontaine, a world-renowned surgeon. Dr. Fontaine told them about her history with the Justice family and then asked them all to draw pictures of her favorite celebrities, so Grandma drew Dev Praytell, York drew Zendaya, one of the cast members of the upcoming film *Collection of Sand*, and Rosé drew Idris Hellbow.

Moving onto the final room, the library, the Drawtectives met famous inventor and animatronics maker Llarm Alasa. Before giving them any clues, he tasked them with designing his ideas for future inventions. Grandma designed a contraption that pours ghost milk on any intruding ghosts, York designed the Train Sound Box, a box that blasts train sounds whenever it detects the user closing their eyes, and Rosé designed a cat enclosure for Alasa's cat Stariana Grande. After the drawing challenge, Alasa showed them a bloody knife that he had pocketed, evidently the murder weapon.

After having interrogated all the witnesses in Crescent Hill, the Drawtectives began speculating about their suspects. They once again spoke to Lotta, who revealed more information about her thief network. They also realized they had not found the missing gems belonging to the murder weapon, so decided to pay Ogalvy another visit. Ogalvy, who was hyped up on chocolate, denied that he had stolen the gems, so the detectives began talking to his father, Avis. Avis eventually admitted to the detectives that he was not invited to the party by Lotta or Sorin; he was invited by Emery. With this new revelation, the Drawtectives revisited the dining room to interrogate Emery. By putting him in "arm jail" and patting him down, the team was able to find the missing gems in his pocket. Emery confessed to the murder, explaining that he was upset by his parents' constant denial to give him money and valuables, so he sent them a ransom note and killed his father at the party. The A-Team arrived to arrest, or in their words, "axtract", Emery, leaving the Drawtectives to have a final talk with Lotta.

The Drawtectives went back to the office, where they changed into new clothes before heading out to Huck E. Heese to celebrate the success of their first case. York, Grandma and Rosé used their Dunking ability on the basketball hoop game, breaking the machine and leaving it out of order.

### The Disappearance of Harold

Two months after the Crescent Hill murder, the Drawtectives were called in by Jancy for the first time since the previous case to relocate a missing dog.

The first person they talked to was Harper Justice, who admitted to stealing the dog, Harold, earlier that day, although it wasn't the theft being investigated. She described the rest of her day up until the dog being stolen from her. This happened while she was yelling at Officer Norm Elmahn, during which a car accident occurred nearby.

Next, the team spoke to Norm himself, who described his day, arriving to when he walked through the park to get to a grocery store. He reported that while being yelled at, a car crash happened nearby, so he went to investigate if the drivers were okay, but there was only one car, and the front was entirely crushed.

Following Norm, they spoke to Ogalvy Smythe, who was asked by Rosé what he had stolen that day. He mentioned a sandwich, and after the promise of stealing model trains with Rosé later, he also admitted to stealing candy and dog treats. Mentioning he saw a dog, he asked if the Drawtectives wanted to know what it looked like. This lead to Grandma drawing a sketch of Ogalvy's description.

The next witness was Dachs Hund, who turned out to be the "dog" Ogalvy saw. He discussed that he was reading his "newspapey" at the park until he noticed Norm. Afterward, he was too enthralled with how handsome Norm was to notice when, or even if, Harold was stolen. He gave a description of Harold which Rosé sketched, along with a visual of Harper for Dachs.

Once they ran out of witnesses, Jancy informed the Drawtectives of a newly-found witness, Noah Crimnal, who had clearly stolen many objects from other witnesses. During the interrogation, he refused to cooperate, and tried to gaslight the Drawtectives until York put him in arm jail. After a bit of threatening, he admitted to stealing almost every item on his person, but he remained in claiming he didn't steal Harold.

Jancy took the Drawtectives aside to discuss what they knew so far, but nobody could come up with the answer. Finally, Jancy revealed that the HPD had recovered Harold, and he was just hiding in a bush the whole time. She explained that he had been able to escape after Harper let go of his leash, with the car crash scaring him away.

After the case, Harper and Harold went home to take a nap, and the Drawtectives went to Huck E. Heese to celebrate the end of a case, and the agreement to do cases together more often in the future.

### Between Cases

In the months following the Murder at Crescent Hill and the Disappearance of Harold, the Drawtectives remained in regular contact, each branching out into their own jobs. After reading a newspaper article on the Crescent Hill case, a modelling agent scouted York, landing him a job as a male model. Grandma continued her dog-walking business, gaining more popularity and being able to buy a flowery romper with the extra money. Rosé continued working as an intern under Jancy, attempting to stray away from her thieving past. Despite this, she also acted as a mentor to Ogalvy, an aspiring thief.

### The Celestial Spear

Two months after finding Harold, the Drawtectives found themselves aboard the Celestial Spear Express, without any memory of boarding. In the first-class car, Conrad Uctor explained to them that they would need to enter every individual cabin in order. Searching their pockets, the detectives found each of their tickets, which none of them could remember purchasing. A mysterious man accompanied them, also completely unaware of how he ended up on the train, as well as of his entire identity. After Rosé asked him if his name was Eugene, prompted by a note that was in her pocket, he decided to use that as a name for the time being. Once Conrad had finished his orientation, the group entered the first cabin, only to discover what looked like the master bedroom of Crescent Hill.

Entering the room in confusion, the Drawtectives and Eugene were greeted with a scene from a film which seemingly matched their own experience during the Murder at Crescent Hill case. Film director Anne Daction noticed the team on set and welcomed them, explaining that she was filming an adaptation of Uhreigh Ture's bestselling novel *Death of a Paladin*. While Eugene snuck away after spotting the film crew's sandwiches, the Drawtectives recapped their own experience with the murder case, comparing it to the events of the film. Grandma began by drawing the team's first encounter with the B-Team and their introduction to the case. Rosé continued with a recap of her meeting Ogalvy Smythe for the first time, as well as York peeing on Harper Justice and Grandma staring at the Butt Cloud. York concluded with a drawing of him holding Emery Justice in arm jail while the A-Team arrive to arrest him. After the team recapped the events of the case, Daction revealed that she was part of the Celestial Spear Program and that she had signed up to host the first "experience". Then, they retrieved Eugene and took a pocketful of sandwiches, saying goodbye to Daction and speaking to Conrad Uctor again. They also witnessed the Ticket Taker take someone's ticket at the end of the first class cabin, much to their terror.
