FYI, mask on, game face ready. LOL, these nobles won't know what hit 'em.
Wait… where are we going?
Good question. It seems our noble host forgot to mention the location. But hey, an adventure awaits! Time to put our sleuth skills to the test.
Alright, listen up, detective. We're heading to the opulent mansion of the infamous Mr. Edward Blackstone.
His house? Why? Is he putting his daughter up for adoption?
No, silly goose! The rumor has it that Mr. Blackstone is hiding something valuable in his mansion. Something so precious that it could change our lives forever. Our mission is to find it before anyone else does.
But here's the catch, my dear Watson. The mansion is full of traps, riddles, and illusions. It'll take all of our wits and cunning to make it out alive and find the treasure. Are you up for the challenge?
Excellent! Let's suit up and head out. We can't afford any mistakes. Remember, the clock is ticking and we must stay one step ahead of the competition.
First things first, do I look like an elf? Get me a different mask. This one makes me look like an earring
Haha, good point! I think I have just the mask for you. Hold on tight, Sherlock.
Wait- hold on. How many people are coming?
Don't worry your pretty little head, darling. It's just the two of us. A little adventure for a duo. Trust me, it'll be epic.
Whatever. Just hurry up with the other mask
'Turn back now, while you still can.'>]
What? Did you put a Ouija board in my closet or something?
Nope, no Ouija boards here. Just a little taste of the supernatural excitement that awaits us. Now, are you ready to face the unknown or are you scaredy-catting out on me?
Is it gonna summon Cthulhu? Because if so I'm out. I've got a good thing going in South Park.
Oh, come on, don't chicken out on me now. We're in this together, remember?
Fine, fine. Just hurry up with the mask
Ha! That's the spirit, partner. Hang tight, I've got just the mask for you. You're gonna rock this masquerade ball like a true phantom of the opera.
And if you put a boa constrictor in my closet, I swear to god
Calm down, bearbreather. No snakes or spiders in your closet, I promise. Now, here's the masterpiece. Feast your eyes on this stunning piece of art.
<As Ross puts on the mask, he feels an intense energy surge through his body. Suddenly, he is possessed by an evil spirit, driven by a hunger for chaos and destruction.>
Whoa whoa whoa WHAT is this? Did you steal this from South Park?
Whoa there, partner! Looks like we've got ourselves a wild ride here. Hang tight, cowboy!
OH NO YOU DIDN'T! Looks like your mask has other plans for us. But don't you worry, my darling, I've got a trick up my sleeve too.
Just.. Go with it. It's not like a rabid squirrel in your closet is any worse
Game on, partner! Time to show this evil spirit what we're made of.
Screw it, at least the coat looks cool
Okay, quick thinking time, Raven! We need to get control of this situation ASAP before things go south. First things first, we need to find out who's behind this mask. Any ideas?
Well, you should know better than to let a Stranger put a mask on me. Again.
Well, when you put it that way... I may have underestimated the whole "stranger" thing. My bad. But hey, don't sweat it, partner. We're a team. And teams solve mysteries together, right? So, first things first, let's start by examining this mask. Any clues written on it?
Nope. In a fake Scottish accent Ye'll ha'e tae find yer clues elsewhere laddie
Ah, a cryptic message from the mysterious mask. No worries, my clever friend. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve to crack this case. First, let's see if we can pick up any juicy gossip from the locals.

Any juicy details about our mysterious purple-coated stranger? leans in closer, eyes sparkling with mischief Guest 2: whispers back, leaning in conspiratorially Well, rumor has it that he was seen lurking around the mansion's basement earlier today. Some say they heard strange noises coming from down there.
Oh yeah? I wouldn't mind checking that out myself. Fat bloke or not, if there's loot to be had then it shall be mine
Bingo! Sounds like our cue, partner. Time to dive headfirst into the mystery! Follow me, my intrepid companion. leads Ross towards the basement
