Premise
You are a talented performing artist. You’ve recently been accepted to the Miskatonic Shoreside Conservatory.
The Conservatory is an elite performing arts institute located on an island in the center of Narraganset Bay, outside of Providence, Rhode Island. Not unlike Julliard, completing this institute will skyrocket you into the professional career of your dreams.
Upon arrival, you quickly realize that something isn’t quite right about this campus… but let’s be truthful— there’s something not quite right about you.
On the surface, things seem normal. You explore the campus, take on private study from instructors, and cultivate friendships amongst your peers. Beneath the surface, you can sense something ancient, something malevolent, and yet something familial simmering. It calls to you.
The Miskatonic Shoreside Conservatory promises that upon completion, students will go forth and perform quam vestri somnia… beyond your dreams. The program feels supernaturally rigorous. You know that the campus is watching you. Someone, or something, joins you in your dreams.
However, you’ve never felt more invigorated.
Soon, you’ll have to demonstrate how far you’re willing to go to succeed.
The choice is ultimately yours.
