Unknown Armies 3rd Edition (Episode 3): Matinee Idol

We are playing the 3rd edition of Unknown Armies, a game about humanity, where obsessed people go after what want they want and work together as a cabal. The characters will get thrown in supernatural events far above what they are ready to handle and their actions will have lasting consequences.

In this episode, we find out from the wife of the dry cleaner next door that he has gone missing and Elgin is tasked to find out what happened to him. Also, it Steve finds out that his father's unhealthy obsession with cameras may have been connected to adept abiliities, and the destruction of those cameras may have been instigated by the mysterious organization, The Sleepers.

Also, Steve and Odelia must both face their greatest fears in a bigger than life presentation that fuses fantasy with reality in a horrifying way...

Matinee Idol by Rufus Wainwright

"This is the day
The day of the death
The death of the matinee idol

Still so beautiful as the angels
As the angels came down from high
So sweet and so soft
So charmingly daft
So young was the matinee idol
Lips of crimson, slightly open
As the flash and all fame put to rest

Walk along that wall
No it is not from the academy
Walk along that wall
From this moment on
You'll cease to be the undying love of the public eye

And so goes one more away from the maze
Away for to sit at the table above babel
Far from this world
While standing on the boulevard

Walk along that wall
No it is not from the academy
Walk along that wall
From this moment on
You'll cease to be
But still
Whomever has looked at beauty is marked out already by death
Still so beautiful as the angels
As the angels came down from high"
