Three-Penny Mysteries

Here's something to do with those pennies collecting dust in jars and piggy banks. Bring a few to Dragon's Eye Ventures this summer and invest in a Three-Penny Mystery from Madame Drak.

This is no ordinary fortune-teller's booth--it's a miniature puppet booth currently in the works, part of the backstory that frames the Dragon's Eye adventures.

This is the design for the booth. Photos will be coming as the booth is constructed.

The Midnight Cat - 19th Century France

Drawing by R. L. McNulty

A mysterious jewel thief known as the Midnight Cat leaves a trail of coded messages that leads the detectives on a wild romp through the artworld of 19th Century France. All roads lead to Paris and the studio of an artist known as Henri Rivière, whose famous shadow plays hide a secret known only to a very few. Can the detectives catch this wily thief, or will the Midnight Cat vanish into the shadows?

Ciphers and coded clues abound in this mystery, and our art projects will include more shadow puppet play. Detectives will make their own codewheels and a jeweled Book of Secrets. Games will include treasure hunts for hidden clues and tracking and trailing the Midnight Cat through the landscape.
