This is a series of games based on the ESPER Roleplaying Game, which has become the Wizard's Tale Universal Role Playing Engine. The previous entries in this series are ESPER: The Town on the Edge of Darkness, Heart of Abraxas, ESPER: The Secret of Drom Bennacht, Julia, and The Thirty-First. The series is going forward under the name "The Occultist," with Ian McDermott as the main playable character. The Occultist: Old Growth - Part one of The ESPER Files. You are Dr. Ian James McDermott, paranormal investigator, private detective, and practitioner of the forbidden arts. As lead investigator of the E.S.P.E.R. Society, you have been summoned to find Kathleen O'Neill and her young daughter Anna, last seen in the Willamette National Forest outside Salem, Oregon. This phenomenon is not restricted to this hapless mother and child... Six hundred thousand people go missing in similar conditions every year. ESPER is a secret society founded in 1848 to stand in the gap between the darkness and the light. It stands for Extraordinary Supernatural Phenomena Explored and Revealed, but it's mission has extended far beyond the paranormal. It's agents have given up regular lives to keep watch over the shadow and make sure it doesn't encroach on humanity. For there are more things to fear in the night than shadows. There are two endings to experience. The Occultist: Bridge Under Troubled Water (2023) - Dr. Ian James McDermott returns in this playable teaser for the sequel to Old Growth. You have arrived at the Colchester Overpass in Fairfax, Virginia one cold Halloween night in 1986. The stories of this bridge have become the stuff of urban legend in the past 17 years, as a strange humanoid creature dressed in a rabbit costume attacking locals with an axe have given it the nickname "The Bunnyman Bridge." As The Occultist, it is your duty to find out if there is any truth to the legends, and if so, to utterly destroy the evil that makes its home there. But it won't be easy, and the police officers hounding local teenagers nearby have already undone any chance of secrecy... or safety. | ||
