Quest: The Party

### Rewards

Demeter's Rose Elixir (if the player guesses correctly); 300 Drachmae (if the player guesses correctly); Ambrosia x2; Piper's Bead; 60 Drachmae; 6000 EXP

This is a quest Leo receives from Piper upon speaking to her in the infirmary in the big house at Camp Half-Blood. She will only spawn after the player has already gotten their cabin key from Mr. D in the meeting room of the big house. She will tell Leo that her siblings are throwing a party after hours and she needs someone to come with her- since Jason is not able to. If the player agrees, she will ask them to meet her inside cabin 10 when they're ready to leave.

(Note: The goal of the party is to find enough clues to be able to guess who committed the murder at the end. The details below outline where those clues are and how to draw the correct conclusion. However, guessing incorrectly will not fail the quest. However, the player stands to win 300 drachmae and Demeter's Rose Elixir if they do guess who the murderer is. The player will only be able to accuse the characters they have gathered enough evidence against.)

**The Party- Act I**

She explains that the party is going to be a murder mystery party. The player then will be transported to the part area, where they will not be able to fast travel or save. Piper will explain that every camper has been given a character to play during the party. She will give Leo his character card and they will join the other party members. They will then sit through a somewhat long cut scene of all the characters introducing themselves.

**The Characters**

**Staff Members**

* Aurora Owens (played by Drew): One of the counselors of Camp Heartfire. Married to Phillip Owens.
* Phillip Owens (played by Joey): One of the counselors of Camp Heartfire. Married to Aurora Owens.
* Fiona Mason (played by Madison): The arts & crafts director of Camp Heartfire.
* Cedric Hughes (played by Freddy): The swimming & canoeing coach at Camp Heartfire.
* Diana Greene (played by Norah): The nurse at Camp Heartfire.
* Walter Jenkins (played by Lance): The head chef at Camp Heartfire.
* Lumpy Jones (played by Leo): The janitor and groundskeeper at Camp Heartfire.

**Campers**

* Greg Allen (played by Dan): A veteran camper.
* Faith Reed (played by Gigi): A second year camper.
* Edna Wilson (played by Piper): A second year camper.
* Dawson Taylor (played by Grover): A veteran camper.
* Ben Moore (played by Nathan): A first year camper.
* Rita Davis (played by Hannah): A second year camper.
* Kate Lewis (played by Jennie): A first year camper.

**Act II**

Act two starts after the campers have all gone to bed. A scream is heard deep in the woods. When Lumpy (Leo's character) goes out to investigate the sound, he finds a few of the staff crowding around the body of Diana Greene- who has been murdered. The player is given the chance to search the area and talk to the other people at the camp.

* Watch: Picking up the sparkling item on the ground near the body will reveal a bloody watch.
* Mr. Jenkins: Talking to Mr. Jenkins near the body will reveal he heard the Owens couple arguing earlier that day.
* Phillip Owens: Confronting him about the argument Jenkins heard will reveal he was having an affair with the victim. Which was since called off.
* Aurora Owens: Confronting her about the affair will reveal she was in the canteen with Jenkins when they heard the scream.
* Shovel: The murder weapon near the body. Picking it up will start act III.

**Act III**

A new cut scene will trigger- during which the player will learn that the shovel used to kill nurse Greene was stolen from Lumpy's tool shed. Lumpy swears that his keys were stolen from him and that he wasn't the murderer. It is also revealed that Cedric Hughes doesn't have anyone to back up his claim that he was taking a midnight swim at the time of the murder. If the player picked up the watch in the last act, they learn that the watch belongs to Phillip Owens, but he has no idea how it wound up near the body. If the player learned about the affair, Aurora will tell everyone about it- which will lead to Rita telling everyone that Phillip was with her and Kate in the community cabin when they all heard the scream. The player will then be able to look around for more clues.

* Ben: Talking to Ben will reveal that he was with Greg and Dawson before the murder, but Dawson left the cabin.
* Faith: Talking to Faith will reveal that she saw Diana Greene kissing Cedric Hughes near the lake earlier that day.
* Cedric: Confronting him about the kiss will reveal that he was dating Diana. He didn't know about the affair until recently. If the player found Phillip Owen's watch, Cedric will admit to stealing it and planting it at the scene to frame him. But he swears he wasn't the one who actually killed her.
* Aurora: Talking to Aurora will reveal that she heard Diana arguing with Fiona Mason earlier that day.
* Fiona: Confronting Fiona about the argument will reveal that Diana owed her a large sum of money. Fiona swears she didn't commit the murder. But no one can confirm her alibi.
* Papers: In the north east corner of the woods there are some documents. Picking them up will reveal parts of a news article- with missing pieces of information.
* Greg: Asking Greg about the newspaper clippings will reveal that a girl died at Camp Heartfire some time ago. Nurse Greene went to court over the whole thing but the case was dismissed. He tells Lumpy that the girl was related to Dawson.
* Dawson: Talking to him about the girl will reveal that she was his cousin. Dawson claims he doesn't hold the camp or nurse Greene responsible for her death.
* Edna: Talking to Piper will move the party into the final act.

**The Final Act**

At this point there will be some reminders of all the clues the player has found, after which they will be able to make an accusation. The murderer is Grover's character; ***Dawson Taylor***. He wanted revenge for his cousin's death- so he stole the keys to Lumpy Jones' tool shed during the campfire (since he was sitting right beside him) and used the shovel to murder the nurse responsible for letting his cousin die. Dawson is figured out (either by the player or by Faith) and Cedric restrains him. The party concludes. Piper thanks Leo for coming with her and gives him some rewards for his time.
