* Ford Money. He's known for making low quality films that are inexplicably successful, it's possible that he uses dark magic to make his movies succeed. Dark magic that could require some kind of sacrifice, like of an actor. And he's an ogre, meaning he's probably strong enough to kill someone with just his hands (and the victim died through blunt force trauma).

* Mancatcher. When investigating prints at the scene of the crime, one set depicts both large hand and footprints along the ground and spaced far enough apart to depict running, evocative of a large ape. The director's previous film was of the king being victorious over a large ape, giving apes a motive against the royal family (and the actor playing the king, the first victim, in particular). Of all the characters met in the first episode, Mancatcher is the most monkey-like. As people on Fiction can gain influence and power based on their own notoriety, playing both hero and villain gives her double the potential fame. Finally, given that the setting has a primary aesthetic of 1920's-30's cartoons, a potential reference to ''Film/KingKong1933'' would be quite entertaining.

* Arden. Although aloof at first, Blugen does clearly let loose his temper, threatening to erase them if they fail. He doesn't react to the actors playing his parents, but he does to the one playing his sister, showing at least some animosity with his family. He hired the Blue Dragon Detectives to investigate without even knowing the extent/competence of the official investigation, as evidenced by his surprise of seeing Killroy there. The Dragons, as well as the note left by the killer, could just be interference so the official investigation fails.

A mystery always leads to speculation, I think, and three theories at once is better than accidentally guessing right on the first try and ruining the fun.

As a story that ends with "the detectives failed and the killer got off scot-free" would not make for good entertainment, when the party fingers a culprit, the gods will make them retroactively the killer all along.
