====== David Dodge ======

**Occupation**: Associate professor of Archaeology at [[Locations: Sydney]] University.

**Age**: 46.{{ :characters:dodge.jpg?200|}}

David is a close friend of professor [[Characters: Anthony Cowles]] (who went to America for a year and left his Sydney house to David). Due to his ambitious and adventurous nature, he was a member of countless expeditions into the Outback (as some of his critics would say - to the detriment of his academic pursues). Very tall and naturally fit, despite his age, he's still in a remarkable physical shape.

In 1915, David enlisted in Australian military and served as an officer during the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallipoli_campaign|Gallipoli]] campaign in the Great War.

After meeting the investigators, David soon realized that his life was in danger. In rapid succession, he witnessed several unnatural and impossible events: witnessed (and was attacked by) the [[Monsters: Deep Ones]] and their human hybrids, seen rituals take place and participated in them, and saw with his own eyes the great ancient creature [[Monsters:Bunyip]].
