Apocalypse Then (Delta Green)
Ran by Steven Gardiner
Level: Intermediate
Characters: Pregens provided
Description: Set in the early 1990s, in the immediate aftermath of the Cold War. You are individuals with unique skills in investigation, military experience, and/or ruthless problem-solving (CIA, special operations, mercenary, veteran/criminal, etc.). Some years ago, you were recruited into a quasi-sanctioned government-linked organization, Delta Green, that tasks volunteers with doing whatever is necessary to quash the infection of the “real world” with what they refer to as the “unnatural”–horrifying manifestations of the supernatural that can spread like a virus through the clueless masses of humanity if not eradicated. There is no way to do this work without losing your mind, if not your soul, and damaging your social and relational bonds. Even as work-a-day life starts to feel utterly unbearable, you receive an “invitation to the opera,” the code for being offered a Delta Green mission. Part of you is horrified, knowing that such a mission can only do more damage to your grasp on reality, but another part is thrilled with the opportunity to escape from the numbing routine of your life. What do you do?
The Haunted Ruins (Shadowdark)
Ran by Andrew Bates
Level: 5-6
Characters: Pre-gens provided for new players, returning players can continue their previous character
Description: In the year 872 A.D. the Borderland of Northwestern Mercia is dominated by the ruins of a Roman city: Deva Victrix. For centuries this massive ruin has been haunted. Angry Romans spirits ignore the many monsters that lurk in the abandoned city, but slay any humanoids that dare to enter the ruins at night. The ruins serve as a haven where monsters keep their lairs, preying on those who live nearby.
Now that you have earned reputations as mighty heroes, the abbot of the nearby monastery believes that you may be able to remove the curse and end the haunting of the ruined city. The abbot has charged you with this mission: to venture into the haunted ruins and vanquish the monsters and ghosts that inhabit Deva Victrix!
