What if Alan Turing solved one more problem and completed one last theorem? And suddenly higher mathematics was awash in spells, summonings, and alternate dimensions where forces lived that would like nothing better than to munch on your brain. Thanks to the Turing-Lovecraft theorem magic happens, almost inevitably for the worst.

The British Secret Service (MI-6, the anti-spell branch) has a unique way of dealing with theoreticians who trip over the right formulae - they hire them into The Laundry and retire them to meaningless desk jobs. Bob Howard, however, is a little to itchy for the passive life. After a lot of trying he manages to get into field work. Now, as a relief from an irritating boss who counts paperclips and takes regular attendance, Bob gets to deal with dark forces and demonic possession.

Masters of the situation in Basra.

Introduction
Extract taken from “Introduction to thaumaturgy theory and practice (2nd ed.)” by Dr Jon Strange (Dunwich College Publications, 1998)

“It is often said that mathematics is the language scientists use to describe the Universe. How is it that mathematics can change the Universe? Can words that describe an object, make that very same object change or move? No matter how much one can describe a car with words, those words won’t make that car move faster, or change into a rock.

With the posting of Part 3 of Case Morning Brightside, I've introduced my first fully stated 65d NPC from  my "Atrocity Archive" game.  She is found marooned in the wilderness in Iraq and is rescued by the PCs.  Is she a lost inncoent or something more sinister?  You'll just have read the article to find out...

I'm sure she could easily be adapted for use in a Delta Green game as an NPC too. 

SPOILER WARNING:  If you are intending to play Part 4, I don't recommend reading this article as it strongly hints at events to come in Part 4.  Don't say I didn't warn you.
