What is it?
Death Street is a game about the afterlife- but an afterlife that may seem unfamiliar and strange. It is a game about strange beasts, and those who fight them, and about normal men and women donning a mantle of responsibility to balance the world of the living and the dead.
Prelude
You have been called- by curiosity, or perhaps some other force, to investigate the strange key you received in the mail, and the strange letter that accompanied it. Directed to a decrepit looking bed and breakfast in a sleepy little town, you find an abandoned and forbidding place.
Though you don't arrive all at once, you each find that your key unlocks a single, well furnished room. Though some of you may feel like leaving, you feel compelled to stay, compelled to spend a night here, in this place. The letter promises your questions will be answered, and to the last you decide to give it a shot.
Maybe it will all turn out to be some sort of giant prank- and you could use the laugh, right?
Night falls and one by one you turn out the lights and go to sleep.
And when you wake, everything is different. Where once there was an abandoned inn, now is a place in the best shape of its life, a warm and welcoming eatery. You exit your rooms to the smell of fresh breakfast cooking, and make your way downstairs to find your answers.
And those answers... they change you. Will it be for the better, or for worse? And when you're called by a destiny you never expected, will you step up to the challenge, or fall by the wayside?
