I have to admit I rather enjoyed the old Hardy Boys / Nancy Drew Mysteries. I was more partial to Nancy Drew; having a crush on Pamela Sue Martin and later Janet Julian. I was quite excited on hearing there was going to be new Nancy Drew series staring Kennedy McMann. So imagine my delight when the show went hard-core supernatural.
The show is full of ghosts, possessions, family curses, witches fighting other witches, and yes lots of mystery. In its 3rd season, it is one of my new guilty pleasures.
Plus Nancy would be fantastic for any number of supernatural RPGs. In the spirit of crossovers how about Nancy for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer RPG. After all, Buffy would not have been here had it not been for Nancy Drew. And the Nancy Drew show would not have been on the CW had Buffy not been on the WB before it.
So here is Nancy for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer RPG.

You wont see Nancy getting into too many fights and she has never, in my memory, used a weapon. Maybe a she has picked up a stick or used a supernatural weapon, but never a gun or even a knife really. Her main weapon is her mind; her keen intelligence and her photographic memory.
She would really fit in well. I mean Horseshoe Bay might as well be a Hellmouth with all the supernatural shenanigans going on. This Nancy Drew really is the spiritual daughter of Buffy, as much as Buffy is the spiritual granddaughter of Nancy Drew from the books.
