![[Sheriff Dalrymple.png|400]] Sheriff Dalrymple is the weary, weathered lawman of Brindlewood Bay, tasked with keeping order in a town where peculiar mysteries seem to sprout like daisies. He often views the meddling of the Murder Mavens as both a nuisance and a blessing, begrudgingly recognizing their knack for uncovering the truth even when it exposes his own shortcomings. • **The Skeptic**: Doubts the supernatural but is begrudgingly forced to confront it (e.g., Sheriff Valenti). • **The Comic Relief**: Provides levity and humanizes the town’s law enforcement (e.g., Sheriff Coltrane or Tupper). • **The Protector**: Puts the community first, even if it means bending the rules (e.g., Sheriff Truman or Metzger). • **The Moral Compass**: Balances duty with compassion, standing firm against corruption (e.g., Sheriff Lacey or Bridges). ##### Quotes - “Believe you me, no one is more frustrated about having to ask for help from a bunch of old biddies than I am!”
