Operational Brief October 18th, 2112 Local. The M/V Tyco Resolute, underway laying trans-atlantic cable in position 38.225680, -60.512661, approx 477 nm ESE of Cape Cod, reports a snag on the outgoing cable. ROV Operator on duty, Aristides Santos pilots ships ROV to the snag. 2143, crew reports Mr Santos ran screaming in Portuguese from the ROV trailer and locked himself in his cabin. Backup Operator Sverrir Thorrisson takes over, clears the snag and the Tyco Resolute continues. All attempts to remove Mr Stantos from cabin are rebuffed. October 19th, 0238 Local. An explosion on the aft davit causes catastrophic damage to the cable reel, causing the loss of current length of cable over the side. After securing the damage, crew forces themselves into Mr Santos’ cabin to find him dead of apparent suicide by hanging. Strewn about the cabin are notes covered in the words “diabo” “satanás” and “demônio”. October 23rd, 1423 EST, M/V Tyco Resolute pulls into drydock in Boston, MA for repairs under Force Majeure. Tyco Communications requests local law enforcement assistance. Repairs are scheduled to be completed in 48 hours. What is Delta Green? Delta Green is a covert group inside the United States federal government. Its mission is to investigate, contain, and conceal unnatural events, because the unnatural is real and it kills. The world of Delta Green is like our own, but beyond the edges of reality are powers that outstrip the human mind’s capacity for understanding. Powers which, when they bleed through into our world, destroy everything in their path. Agents of Delta Green have limited knowledge of these forces. If you’re an agent, you probably have experienced the unnatural at least once. This inciting event is likely what brought you to the attention of Delta Green in the first place. A few know more. They suffer that knowledge like a cancer of the mind. Sometimes it’s better to know just enough to get the job done, and nothing more. That’s the first rule of Delta Green. Want a longer, more in character explanation? http://www.delta-green.com/what-is-delta-green/ does a GREAT job. As far as the system goes, it's pretty simple Call of Chtulhu-esque percentile stuff, and the Agents Handbook explains everything you need to know. The Agents Handbook goes into more detail, however I’ve always liked this bit cribbed from trainspotting: Choose federal law enforcement. Choose the military. Choose NASA or the CDC. Choose lying to your superiors. Choose to ruin your career. Choose no friends. Choose divorce. Choose life through the bottom of a bottle. Choose destroying evidence and executing innocent people because they know too loving much. Choose black fatigues and matching gas masks. Choose an MP5 stolen from the CIA loaded with glasers, with a wide range of loving attachments. Choose blazing away at mind numbing, sanity crushing things from beyond the stars, wondering whether you'd be better off stuffing the barrel in your own mouth. Choose The King In Yellow and waking up wondering who you are. Choose a 9mm retirement plan. Choose going out with a bang at the end of it all, PGP encrypting your last message down a securely laid cable as an NRO Delta wetworks squad busts through your door. Choose one last Night at the Opera. Delta Green Playtest The newest version Delta Green’s got Playtest rules now, and I’ve been itching to run a one-shot type game for a while now. Here is a link to the rules and guidelines. Specifics for this scenario Make characters as outlined in the Agents Handbook. You can use point buy, or orokos.com to roll (link your set of rolls in your post) Normally Delta Green operatives are already versed in the supernatural, they’ve been brought into DG because of their experiences. Think of this game as a prequel. This is the game your characters will look back on in 5 years, if they’re still alive, and think “It was simpler back then, remember before we knew too much?” Right now no one has any Delta Green affiliation, this is somewhat of a “Welcome to the universe” type game. I am running this as kind of a one shot so I can provide playtest feedback, but may continue if we’re all enjoying it. I would like a mix of law enforcement/ex-military/academics. I’m shooting for 5 players, at least 1 of which is an academic of some sorts. Give your character a reason to be on this multi-agency investigative team sent to deal with the Tyco Resolute. One hook you can use is that since this is a request from another government, it feels like a jerkoff, so most agencies might not send their best man over. They’ll provide the mandated manpower and tell their guy “just show up, kill 48 hours and let’s write this off so we can get back to ‘real’ work.” You can PM me, or find me on synirc in the star wars (#sweote) channel most of the time. Something that makes a good, valuable character is a solid jurisdiction (if they have any), and the ability to work autonomously. For example, Boston Police Beat Cop isn’t great becuase they’re not able to make their own schedule, and outside of Boston they may as well not even have a badge. A Mass State Police Detective is good, they’ve probably got a take-home car, and can work all over the state. Think outside the box too. I’ve had a US Postal Inspection Service guy in one game, and that was unique and interesting. He was also the source of many jokes from the rest of the players. Recruiting will go on as long as it has to, I’d rather have 5 good characters than the first 5. Active posters are a must, at least once a day (reliably, I know that real life exists and sometimes things get slow, but I don’t want to be waiting 3 days inbetween every post.)

Not sure about the red tape error, but maybe a liaison to say, the Boston multi-agency task force covering the boston marathon bombings. They got funding for 2 years and it's all wrapped up so you basically ride a desk doing nothing and you're climbing the walls. Your boss needs to send 1 warm body down to the docks and you volunteer, not like you're doing much right now anyways? Open to suggestions, maybe elaborate on your red tape error idea? I love the CIA Librarian, just need to find a way to get him in. You could also perhaps be a subject matter expert on international maritime law, and as such you're there to make sure that Force Majeure isn't violated (along with other statutes)

Force Majeure, for those who are wondering, is essentially the ability for a foreign flagged ship to enter US waters due to an emergency. Because they're not here for a 'normal' call, many US customs laws don't apply. There's more to it but that's the gist.

Very interested in trying out the new DG rules. I'm still researching a bit as to who could claim jurisdiction on the story hook, but I'm thinking either a Civilian or Warrant Officer working for the Coast Guard Investigative Service. Mysterious boat with possible homicide, makes sense to me.

I was thinking of using the "Intelligence Analyst" profession to build off of, so he'd speak a number of languages. There's a good amount of foreign words on the ship? Background wise, I was thinking he's a failed seminarian (past profession: clergy), so that would also perhaps be a hook to get him involved? ("Really, a bunch of fuckin' Satanists? Hey, you using to be a priest or something, right?" "Not exactly, boss...")

I was thinking of apping with a Interpol agent. As it seems like the crew are of mixed EU backgrounds, and the boat was probably working for an energy company based in an EU nation, there'd probably be at least 3 or 4 governments wanting answers and investigations. Now, Interropol doesn't technically have powers of arrest or investigation, but their primary concern is to facilitate relations between police forces of different nations (though their agents are armed and trained officers). If there's a bunch of governments all wanting answers, it's make sense for them to request an agent get sent to give answers. Name: John Samuels Occupation: Interpol Agent Appearance: John is average height, with a 6 foot frame filled out but not overweight. His black hair is regulation length, and he goes clean-shaven at all times. He has a disarming smile and firm handshake, and goes out of his way to make others feel at ease. Personality: John is a British Interpol agent working out of the American field office in Boston as a link between US and EU law enforcement. He knows that "real" cops call him plastic, that his badge is just a piece of metal, and if he ever actually lays his hands on a perp the best he can do is shout "citizen's arrest". That doesn't bug him, however, because he gets a nice, cushy job flying all over the world to consult with police forces on every continent while they glare at him from behind desks. If asked, John would say he was a "people person", but then he'd apologise with a smile and say he hated that term. His file notes that he is "charming and perceptive, with above average scores in both field and written tests", and he has been flagged as one to watch for possible promotion in the future. Something you dislike: John is disarmingly charming, but that hides an arrogant streak. He knows he's being lined up for a promotion, and that can make him cocky in private situations. Something you admire: Despite his cockiness, John genuinely cares for others, and he will go out of his way to help victims and colleagues if he can. pre:Strength (STR) - 10 Dexterity (DEX) - 13 Constitution (CON) - 11 Intelligence (INT) - 13 Power (POW) - 13 Charisma (CHA) - 15 Hit Points (HP): 12 Willpower Points (WP): 13 Sanity Points (SAN): 65 Alertness 50% Bureaucracy 60% Climb 50% Computer Science 30% Criminology 50% Drive Auto 50% Firearms 60% First Aid 30% Forensics 50% Law 50% Pathology 30% Persuade 50% Psychology 40% Unarmed Combat 40% Specialty: Linguist— French 40% Spannish 30% Bonds: 2 Sarah - Wife Jonah - Baby Son ForeverBWFC fucked around with this message at 04:32 on Oct 26, 2014 |

This sounds really interesting. Would one of Tyco's corporate lawyers be an appropriate character? I'd assume they would be sending someone out to make sure that the company doesn't hold any liability for the death on their boat, and also to make sure that their corporate rights are being respected over the course of the investigation. I won't be able to make a proper character sheet until Saturday due to work commitments, but I will definitely stat something up if the concept is good.

Maybe not Tyco's staff lawyer, but in a pinch they might reach out and put a local firm on retainer, that's not out of the question. Between that an a CIA librarian we'd pretty much lock down academics.

Name: ”Father” Elliot March Occupation: CIA Librarian Appearance: Mousy light brown hair that’s always getting in front of his black framed glasses. His comfortable looking suit fits well, but the disconnect between it and his posture gives the impression of a kid playing dress up as secret agent. He’s in his late 20s. History: March had intended to be a priest, and graduated from Harvard Divinity School with flying colours. Unfortunately, he experienced a catastrophic crisis of faith six months later that no amount of counseling from the Sulpicians was able to cure, and he left St. John’s Seminary before taking his orders. His interest in helping others was not lessened, however, as he remained a regular contributor to the local soup kitchen, job training, and other social programs that needed volunteers. He moved back to Washington an atheist, and lived with his parents while completing an online Masters in Library Science, hoping to find some quiet university to hide in, and ended up with the CIA instead, because they were the only ones hiring during the last gigantic financial crash and his parents were this close to kicking him out. That was five years ago, and he has since been transferred to Boston as part of an inter-agency counter-terrorism investigation following up on the Boston Marathon bombing. Something you dislike: His lack of faith in others, and his distrust of things which are intangible. Something you admire: His willingness to continue helping others despite losing the “reward” which he would be due. pre:Strength (STR) - 10 Dexterity (DEX) - 12 Constitution (CON) - 10 Intelligence (INT) - 14 Power (POW) - 16 Charisma (CHA) - 11 Hit Points (HP): 10 Willpower Points (WP): 16 Sanity Points (SAN): 80 Profession: Intelligence Analyst Previous Profession: Clergy Accounting 20% Alertness 30% Anthropology 50% Bureaucracy 50% Computer Science 20% Criminology 50% Cryptography 50% Firearms 20% Foreign Language (Spanish) 50% Foreign Language (Arabic) 50% Foreign Language (Italian) 50% Foreign Language (Latin) 30% History 70% Persuade 40% Psychology 70% Psychotherapy 50% Bonds - 3 Alice Lutwidge, girlfriend Erasmus Long, homeless shelter director The Lucky Strikes, his bowling team Toph Bei Fong fucked around with this message at 05:33 on Oct 24, 2014 |

Karl "K-Bar" Barrick - Ex Special Forces (Retired) Master Chief Chuck Barrick, of the US Navy is retired. Or was retired, depending on who you talk to. If you ask the Navy, he's been retired for 2 years, due to his advanced age. If you ask Chuck, he's still in his prime, and certainly still keeping up with his training. Training that served him well. He joined the Navy when he turned 18, as the Vietnam war was starting to get heavy. Quickly rushed through boot, he was assigned a Patrol Boat in the waters of Vietnam, where one day his boat was hit and he, the only survivor, was washed ashore. On an enemy beach. With no support, no backup, and no weapons. After killing an unprecedented 50 Viet Kong with what he was able to scrounge from the beach, he was returned to the States and Fast Tracked into BUD/S, the SEAL training program. After the War was over, Chuck stayed in, being promoted constantly through the ranks, and eventually ending up as the Master Chief in charge of Instruction at BUD/S. Beside some brief tours inn various places like Panama, Bulgaria, Desert Storm, and Iraqi Freedom, he's trained young SEALs until he was RIFFed for his advanced age just 2 years ago. Since then, he rejected any offer the Private Military Companies made him regarding training, opting instead to live his quiet life in the Massachusetts country, where his ex wife and her new husband settled with his kids. Now he runs a fishing charter during the summer months, and trains local SWAT teams how to clear buildings during the winter. pre:Name: Karl "K-Bar" Barrick Profession: Special Forces (Retired) Education or Previous Profession : Sailor Age and DOB: 62 years old, born on 4/1/1952 Strength (STR) - 10 Dexterity (DEX) - 16 Constitution (CON) - 12 Intelligence (INT) - 16 Power (POW) - 13 Charisma (CHA) - 5 Hit Points (HP): 11 Willpower Points (WP): 13 Sanity Points (SAN): 65 Profession: Special Forces Previous Profession: Sailor Alertness 80% Climb 40% Craft (Mechanic) 30% Demolitions 40% Firearms 50% First Aid 60% Heavy Weapons 40% Melee Weapons 40% Navigation 70% Pilot (Small Boats) 80% Stealth 50% Survival 50% Swim 40% Tactics 50% Throw 40% Unarmed Combat 40% Bonds - 1 Admiral Henry Lake, Commander USSOCOM quote:Appearance and Personality: Thin, tall, with short cropped brown hair.

Name: Alyssa Buffalohead Occupation: Associate attorney Appearance: Tall and striking, although not conventionally attractive. Straight black hair cut to a few inches below the shoulders, and often kept back in a low ponytail. Tan skin, very dark brown eyes. Mid to late 30s. Wears a suit jacket and pencil skirt most of the time, walks like she thinks she's bulletproof. Her basic expression is serious, but she smiles often. History: Alyssa grew up in Fargo, ND, and spent most of her time trying to get the hell out. Her mother died when she was seven, and her father, an investment banker, had a tendency to work long hours that continued even after he became the sole caretaker in the household. Alyssa was left mostly on her own for much of the time, and so she focused on schoolwork and athletics. She was accepted to the University of Pennsylvania, played for the women's basketball team, and graduated with honors and a B.A. in Political Science. She became very close with her teammates--while she was popular in high school, she never felt like she had any 'real' friends. Even though the team wasn't, frankly, very good, it was the closest she'd ever been to her peers. After college, she studied corporate law at the University of Chicago. She was hired as a junior associate at Stephens and Mackelroy shortly after graduation, and has been slowly climbing the ladder ever since. She has a reputation for reliability, honesty, and a good knowledge of the field, and has a pretty good relationship with the rest of the associates, as well as her bosses. Her relationship with her father has also greatly improved, now that they don't have to deal with each other every day and can instead interact as something more like equals. They tend to call or email at least once per week. Something you dislike: She has difficulty putting herself in someone else's shoes, especially if the other person's background is significantly different from her own. She is also a strict constitutional originalist and textualist, regarding anything else as unconscionable judicial activism. Something you admire: Once she decides something is morally or ethically right, she will defend it to the absolute ends of the earth, even if it would harm her or her reputation. pre:Strength (STR) - 10 Dexterity (DEX) - 12 Constitution (CON) - 11 Intelligence (INT) - 17 Power (POW) - 15 Charisma (CHA) - 17 Hit Points (HP): 11 Willpower Points (WP): 15 Sanity Points (SAN): 75 Profession: Lawyer Previous Profession: Athlete (college basketball) Accounting: 60% Alertness: 50% Bureaucracy: 70% Computer Science: 60% Dodge: 50% Firearms: 30% History: 60% Law: 70% Persuade: 70% Psychology: 50% Swim: 50% Throw: 40% Bonds - 4 Joseph Buffalohead, father Boston Lawyer's Chapter of the Federalist Society Stephens and Mackelroy, corporate law firm (employer) University of Pennsylvania women's basketball teammates Let me know if I've done any of the skills wrong, or if I need to change anything about her background--I think I added everything up correctly, but a double-check never hurts.

Great submissions so far, MustacheRide you have a few story tweaks we talked about in IRC. What we kind of need now (and usually DG games are chalk full of this type and not the excellent characters we have so far) is someone with a solid jurisdiction to be there in the first place. Easy picks are State Police detective, FBI is a good one (though interpol is a solid crossover). Less well known but good choices could also be NTSB, U.S. Customs and Border Protection/U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Homeland Security Investigations, US Marshalls, etc. ForeverBWFC, can you tweak your background to be working out of a boston field office? Interpol has agents in the US, but this team is assembled rapidly, so no time to fly over from Lyon.

Name: Victor Saneza Occupation: Massachusetts State Police Marine Unit Former Occupation: US Navy Explosive Ordinance Disposal Technician Appearance:Average height with a thin but fit build. His skin is closer to olive than black but his features are distinctly Caribbean. History: Growing up poor in Jamaica Plain wasn't the best life but it certainly wasn't the worst. Victor's father worked as an electrician and kept the rent paid and food on the table, and the Dominican community in JP rivaled the Southie Irish for mutual support. Victor was a sharp boy with superb grades, but prospects were still few for those that couldn't afford college so Victor did like many before him and, when he turned 18, he enlisted. With his knack for electronics he found ready acceptance in the Navy's EOD program and spent his military career clearing make-shift mines, pirate-built IEDs and disarming the occasional old WWI ordnance off the coast of Hawaii. When he returned to Boston, some friends from the Navy had recommended he join the State Police. His veteran status served as an excellent door opener and as an experienced diver he was a perfect fit for the Statie's harbor and maritime operations. He is still close with his family, but as a State Police now he regrets having to keep some of his childhood friends at arm's length. Something you dislike: Victor is not the friendliest person and, while he keeps it professional, he despises the rich and privileged and it will boil over into open hostility if he's not careful. Something you admire: Having disposed of bombs for a living, Victor is always ready for the worst case scenario and always volunteers so others won't have to. It may still scare him shitless, but if someone has to go into the derelict sub and find an unexploded torpedo, he is the first with his hand up. pre:STR - 13 CON - 11 DEX - 14 INT - 14 POW - 11 CHA - 8 Alertness - 50% Bureaucracy - 30% Climb - 30% Criminology - 40% Demolitions - 60% Dodge - 20% Drive Auto - 50% Firearms - 70% First Aid - 40% Forensics - 30% Law - 30% Melee Weapons - 30% Navigate - 40% Persuade - 40% Psychology - 40% SCUBA - 50% Unarmed Combat - 50% Bonds - 3 Marta Saneza - Mother Sean McCullen - Partner Los Perros Salvajes - Amateur Soccer Team

Oliviera is generally a straight shooter and wants to do his job quickly and with no trouble, but doesn't have time for people who try to get in the way of an investigation. He's also smart enough to be dangerous but not smart enough to get himself out of trouble. Which, really, is why he's on the boats in the first place. The loving boats, man.

gently caress it, I bought plat. Given the amount of games I play on here it'll probably be worth it. Sorry about that, I'm a cheapass. Excited to start, though!

"Pinechild has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her." maybe it takes some time to go through? Drop me a PM, see if it works.
