Project Nemesis is a fan driven website for games that use the One-Roll Engine (like Nemesis, Wild Talents, Reign and Monsters) or Chaosium's Basic Roleplay System (BRP) (like Call of Cthulhu) and the Delta Green setting.
You remember when your little sister grew an extra head and you took the butt
end of your daddy's shotgun to her until she stopped wailingin alien
tongues? Remember when you thought
that fat headless zombie-thing wouldn't stop growing or mutating or whatever
and you kept peppering the gigantic maggots erupting from it's bloated belly
with buckshot?
Remember when you
suddenly lost control of your body and the buzzing in your brain was so loud
you almost didn't stop whatever was controlling you from blowing your own
damn fool head off with that Remington 870 you picked up off the headless
state trooper's body?
It all started in 1995. One Year
after the Fairfield Incident. Things were crazy, paranoid times full of cell
structures and biohazards. Ahundred damned things popping up needing to be
put down every week. Contaminated towns disappearing off the map, Mob
informants withering and shrivelling right inside FBI "interview" rooms like
fast forwarded Egyptian mummies. Occult graffitti showing up in bad
neighborhoods and good neighborhoods.
I saw the Yellow Sign scrawled
60 feet up the wall across the back alley of a meat packing plant. At least
three bodies worth of human meat in the dumpster. How'd they even get the
blood that high up?
Every night, a different story, a new scenario...
scattershot beads of distilled hellfire scorching new and acute trails of
twisted agony through the raw remnants of human sanity. They come at you all
at once. Not like the well-aimed surgical precision of a sniper, but
like a maniac's spree killing, slaughtering human victims like
diseased
cattle.
Remember that evening on the pier? Two ships coming
in loaded with inhuman monsters? Cargo containers shaking like unstable
bombs... the full moon glaring down with cold light in the frozen night?
Steel rending with a metallic scream?
January 24, 1970: DELTA GREEN clearance and classification is officially deactivated by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
"The Vietnam War is the foggiest in my own personal experience. Moreover, it is the first war I know of wherein the fog of war is thicker away from the scene of conflict than on the battlefield..." - General Earle Gilmore Wheeler, US Army, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 1964-1970.
Here is a rundown of an alternative DG campaign background. It replaces the Mi-go with Ophibians.
The whole set up comes after a recently completed Cthulhu 1920s campaign which took three years to to run. To cut an obviously long story short, a human (player-character) of mixed serpent-people and human blood fulfilled an old prophecy to bring the Serpent People of the Dreamlands back to Earth, there to regain their dominion. So the next bit makes sense, I'll tell you that his (human) name is Christopher Larkin.
In the first pages of the shadow over Innsmouth its explained how, after the raid, the civil rights movement started a short-lived campaign against the gravely unconstitutional actions of the federal government (illegal arrests of American citizens, imprisonments without judgement, etc).
A Tale of Terror DG-style. In the closing months of WWII, the Karotechia finally captured a live vampire in occupied Poland. The plan- the pet project of a Dr. Kurmen- was to seed vampirism in the United Kingdom to undermine the war effort. The plan- like so many- went badly wrong. The carrier- a captured British flier named Jack Cupe- escaped from the containment bunker after the Russians shelled it, and made good his escape.
A DG one night stand for one keeper and one to three players. Setting: This scenario can be set any season during any time period, at any location which has a river. Preferably the players live on the banks of the water.
