Buried in the Quagmire
Something foul is going on in the tiny Iowan town of Fertile. The tap water has turned into a thick, black slime. Bloody, severed fish heads have been found on the doorsteps of the local residents. And Strange sounds have been heard from the swamp directly adjacent to the town.  Can the Agent's figure out the cause of the towns woes? Or have the sins of it's people condemned it to a terrible fate? Buried in the Quagmire is an introductory standalone adventure for Strange Squad, perfect to drop into any starting or ongoing campaign. It's designed to be relatively easy to run, and forgiving enough to present to a group of new players.
