About the adventure
July 1995 Thirteen people have vanished along Highway 70 in the Arizona desert. There were no signs of violence. No known enemies. No valuables missing except for whatever each victim had on their person. No contact from the perpetrator(s) or victims. No suspects... That stretch of road—the press already calls it the “Devil’s Highway”—runs through the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation. Tribal police and state investigators are at a loss. Now the FBI steps in. It sends your agents. They may find a trail of terror that leads far from Arizona and a deeper evil than they can hope to overcome... _______________________________________________________________________ Welcome to The Delta Green Files: Puppet Shows and Shadow Plays, a multi-part horror investigation dripping with atmosphere and roleplay opportunity, perfect for those who love media such as The X-Files, Call of Cthulhu, Supernatural, and the Monster of the Week genre in general!

Creating your character
Character creations will be handled in a basic one to one Session Zero, where we will be discussing Safety Tools, expectations, and settling you into the themes and subjects that Delta Green will throw your way. Pre-Generated characters will also be available for any late comers or those that would prefer them.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will need access to an internet connection, a Discord account and a microphone. Having the option to use a webcam is also handy! No prior knowledge of the rules of Delta Green is needed, as this is a beginner friendly game that welcomes newbies and veterans alike.

How Kobold Kaverns (GM Mike) creates a safe table
⭐- Play Safety Deck: Players will have access to a Safety Deck within Foundry VTT that will allow them to pause, fade to black, or fast forward gameplay (amongst other things) should the players feel uncomfortable in anyway. Use of this Safety Deck is anonymous and is a great tool used in all of my games! ⭐ - Open Door Policy: Real Life comes first - life happens, and that’s okay! My open-door policy means you can leave the game at any time for any reason- no questions asked, no pressure, no negative repercussions. Whether it's because of an emergency, discomfort, or simply because you're not enjoying the session, your well-being always comes first. I want you to know that your participation is always valued, but there’s no obligation to stay if real life calls or if the game’s not working for you. ⭐- A handy consent checklist will be sent out to you privately before the beginning of every first session! ⭐ - Our Gameplay: You can look forward to deep, narrative-driven sessions where character development, interaction, and teamwork are central. The world will present tactical challenges, and your decisions will have meaningful consequences-so think ahead! While I want you to have fun, when your character steps into a fire, expect them to get burned. The balance between risk and reward will drive much of the experience, and I’ll do my best to keep you on your toes! Your safety and enjoyment are my top priorities. By implementing these tools and practices, I hope to create a space where we can create a rich, immersive world together. Your comfort and feedback are vital to this, so don’t hesitate to reach out with any thoughts or suggestions along the way.
