1879 Personalities 3: The Casebook of Octavia Rainwater
![]() |
In which we describe Octavia Rainwater¸ psychic detective¸ provide her backstory¸ and discuss her work! This supplement contains Octavia Rainwater's backstory¸ five of her Connections¸ three Adventure Hooks¸ three fully detailed investigator's devices¸ and a complete character sheet¸ everything you need to use Miss Rainwater in your campaign! By the age of nine¸ Octavia's life was complicated¸ as her psychic abilities began to manifest. This was well before Rabbit Hole Day¸ but there was already enough mana in the air to set off a few flickers here and there. Octavia lives in Louisville¸ a place where a woman who could pass for either black or white can disappear into a throng of similar folks. She works for Moser's Detective Agency of London¸ the first British investigative firm to employ women. While the larger portion of her caseload consists of unfaithful spouses¸ as any private investigator's will¸ she has gained a shred of respect from the police department¸ especially since the Rabbit Hole opened and her abilities bloomed. Her degree in law enforcement¸ her determination¸ and her abilities got her the position with Moser's. If you have a problem that needs a woman's touch¸ help from someone who listens with their mind and spirit¸ who can talk with ghosts and see auras¸ a police-trained detective who doesn't need Bertillon cards or to chase around to every haberdasher in town to know whose hat was left at the scene¸ you can reach Miss Octavia Rainwater telegraphically at Shadows¸ Louisville.
