Learn to Play Delta Green

When an agent dies, someone has to pick up the pieces -- the ones that don't fit; the ones which can drive others mad. Today, that task falls on You.

About the adventure

You might be tempted to think Delta Green is about fighting back 'the dark'; about saving humanity from the eldritch unknown; about anonymous heroes risking their lives to protect the world from the facts it Doesn't Need to Know. You'd be half-right. Delta Green isn't about anything so noble as saving the world, even though that's The Mission; it's about Survival; about living in the shadow of hope without reliable safety nets as you stare long into the Abyss, doing your best to compartmentalize that it was always staring long into You; hope that the world *can* be saved; hope that you'll live to see the day it does. It's about your Agent sitting at the dinner table, home from your FBI career to your happy family and stable career, knowing that at a moment's notice you'll have to lie to everyone you know to go off to gods-know-where to do illegal work that could kill you in a way that a funeral can't be allowed to happen and you'll never be able to tell anyone about it. This is Call of Cthulhu for the modern age; fiction which trails the edge of narratives like Control, Alan Wake, the SCP Wiki, and Marble Hornets. Join us, Agent, and we'll peel back the poster of Reality for you and show you how to trade your essence to give the world a little more life. This game will teach you the Ins and Outs of being an Agent for Delta Green; how to work a Case; how to (hopefully) survive one: dice, character creation, the whole enchilada. If you think you're Agent material, hit the Join button and let's find out.

About me

Writer, actor, professional game creator, and all-around "semi-pro" Storyteller! I wear many hats and do a lot of things; some may call me a jack of all trades. But the oldest, fondest, hat in my closet that I never completely take off is the hat of 'forever DM'. I'm very fond of opportunities to tell odd stories and I particularly love telling stories as a group activity. Paid DMing allows me to tell tales and do prepwork I wouldn't normally have the time for; given the opportunity, I'd be happy to work full time on it. For me, the title of 'forever DM' isn't a nag -- it's a commitment!

Safety

How Fate creates a safe table

Please be sure to review the content warnings below; I am happy to modify this scenario to exclude any content that would make you, the player, feel personally unsafe. I am happy to make your agents incredibly, constantly, unsafe but at the same time I want you, the player, to be having a good time even when they're having the worst day of their life. Or their last day. When we meet up, I will ask the table what lines and veils you would like to include for this scenario and then will modify the scenario to either veil or entirely exclude (and expect the table to moderate or exclude as well) whatever content each player would personally find subtracts from their ability to enjoy the experience.
