Dr. Ernest McTavish, head of Archaeology at Miskatonic University, has invited you to a meeting in his office at 11 a.m.
It is a cold, rainy day in Arkham, and the sky is forebodingly black. Students and faculty members run across the quad for shelter, using papers and bags as makeshift umbrellas.
McTavish’s office is considerably less old-fashioned and stuffy than newcomers might expect, as is the man himself. The office is airy, and has plain, white walls, with a number of diplomas and awards hanging in frames. Wooden shelves contain a broad range of archaeological and historical tomes, including a handful authored or co-authored by McTavish, as well as a number of minor artifacts, mostly masks, tablets, and pottery, from his various expeditions around the Americas. His oaken desk is tidy, with neat piles of papers arranged with almost geometrical precision. One pile is held in place by a Mexican skull, inlaid with turquoise.

OOC:
I'd like to start with a brief, cinematic sort of introduction of each investigator. Imagine that they each get a little close-up in which the camera is focused on them. In a few sentences, describe what the camera picks up about your investigator as they enter the office.
