The first body was found near Ellin's house. The victim was identified as Pandora. The body was lying next to the door, and the girl's skin was pale. Witnesses suggested that the deceased had slipped, as the doorstep was washed away by the rain and became slippery. However, after bite marks were found on her neck, this version was dismissed.
"The doorstep turned out to be slippery" - if it's about a Lizardman, it seems too obvious. Or is there no indication of clues here (i.e., was it a Nosferatu who killed her)?
The second murder took place in Vegtham's house. The neighbors were alarmed by the animal howl coming from his house. When they approached the door, a terrible crash was heard, which frightened them. Entering the room, they found the owner. The victim was lying on the bed, and there was a hole in his chest - it seemed that the killer had torn out his heart, and the unfortunate man's body was torn to pieces.
"A terrible crash" reminds me of thunder. Therefore, the most likely candidate is Hostor.

A child, a couple, and someone else came to Cash. They were apparently protecting Magnus.
In addition, I learned that an attack was made on the guard post. Several guards were injured, but all survived. There were rumors of a beast, but the captain is in no hurry to share information with me.
This entry can be interpreted in two ways. Either a werewolf/lycanthrope attacked the guard, or the governor ("once every three nights, he can hire guards to protect against attacks").

This announcement caught my attention.
"Look for the mad scientist among those who voted for the execution of Verel. Most likely, it is Kash or Thorium. Only one of those who voted against her is definitely not a mad scientist.
He who hurries to live also hurries to feel..."
I understand the thought; this is probably because the Hermit Zombie voted for her. By the way, I have good news. I learned from the GM that a zombie is not a corpse, but a person whose mind the scientist temporarily takes control of. That is, after the scientist's death, the zombie will be on the city's side again.
"Next will be Ellina..."

It was definitely not a lycanthrope who wrote this, but of course, the killer. Why would someone play such a trick on the city? Although this doesn't give much information.

Regarding the newspaper's name: I was immediately reminded of Simon Green's book "Blood and Honor." Ironheart is a negative character there, a dead knight who never takes off his helmet and armor. However, Ar probably didn't mean him...

В тихой однообразной жизни всегда так бывает: каждый отдельный день бесконечно долог, но месяцы и годы мчатся с непостижимой быстротой.
