About the adventure
You are part of secret government organization that deals with unnatural threats and protects the world from experiences you will need to live for the rest of your life. Conducting a Delta Green operation is like an immune system response; you must identify and destroy the infection before it kills the body. This campaign comprises of six operations for new and old Delta Green players that would like to face reality where lovecraftian monstrosities are more down to earth then you would think. You can join for all of them as one ongoing cycle or pick and choose which operations you would like to be part of - check "party notes" below to see which operation is currently played. • Reverberations: Reverb is back in Chicago. Users vanish, leaving wrecked rooms behind. Stop the source of this unnatural threat. • Viscid: A geneticist dies in Seattle. Unnatural "Blue Blood" is spreading. Confront a lethal conspiracy before it’s too late. • Music From a Darkened Room: 18 people died at 1206 Spooner Ave. An agent just joined them. Enter the house that is cold, alive, and hungry. • Extremophilia: A deputy dies of poisoning in Montana. Stop a contagious threat before you become its next vector. • The Star Chamber: Adjudicate a mission in Myanmar. Replay choices to find the truth: did they betray humanity to the Tcho-Tchos? • Observer Effect: A lab looked too deeply into reality. Isolate the staffers before a mindless chaos consumes our existence. Never played Delta Green? Don't worry - game is simple and you will pick up the system as we play! We will kick off with session zero to agree on table rules and expectations. Before joining be aware that this game is for mature players and will involve difficult moral decisions as well as might involve emotional roleplaying about human relations and their slow degradation. It is not a happy game about killing monsters. It is a game about consequences.

About me
Hi — I'm Jacek! I run atmospheric tabletop RPGs focused on investigation, exploration, horror, and the unknown. If you enjoy uncovering mysteries, exploring dangerous worlds, and making meaningful choices together with your group, my games are built around those experiences. I aim to create sessions with strong atmosphere, memorable characters, and a balance between tension, discovery, and player-driven storytelling. I started my RPG journey in the mid-90s, running my first games of AD&D 2nd Edition and Call of Cthulhu. I quickly became the person who runs the games — and decades later, it is still the part of the hobby I enjoy most. Even after many years behind the screen, I keep improving my craft through small, continuous changes rather than chasing constant reinvention. I regularly run Call of Cthulhu, Delta Green, Dragonbane, and other games focused on horror, survival, and exploration. Outside of running games, I compose atmospheric soundscapes for tabletop RPGs. I use music and ambient audio during my sessions to enhance immersion, build tension, and create a stronger sense of place. I also enjoy spending time outdoors — whether hiking through forests with my dog Migo or pushing myself on long-distance trail runs. If you are looking for a table where atmosphere, story, and player choices matter, I would be happy to have you join one of my games. I also recorded a short introduction video if you would like to get a better sense of who I am: https://youtu.be/BjBTNa-oBvY

Creating your character
We will go through character generation on session zero.
This is an ongoing campaign. Before your first game we will need to set a brief meeting to go through agreed session zero rules and table etiquette. We will go through basic character creation with brief explanation of the rules. This meeting should last 30-60 minutes. --- Currently starting Music from a darkened room. --- So far group constists of a physician and FBI special agent.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Game will be held on Discord+Foundry so nothing in particular is needed. Webcams encouraged.
What Jacek brings to the table
Game will be run on official Foundry modules (if available) along with Agent's Handbook available to all via Foundry. I will utilize music from my side project - Hideous Hiss.

How Jacek creates a safe table
I am using Foundry Safety Tools module (https://foundryvtt.com/packages/safety-tools) which should provide enough safety nets to avoid any unwanted situations.
