One of the (many) problems faced by Delta Green is how to get
Friendlies involved in official cases in a semi-official capacity
rather than as outsiders with no authority whatsoever. In 1999,
retiring Delta Green agent Walter Weatherman (formerly Agent Percy)
settled upon an idea and put it into motion after retiring from the FBI
Behavioral Science division.
The initial antagonists in Going Under are a group of culture-jammers,
would-be anarchists and revolutionaries that form a larger network of
friends, operating under the banner of UCoD. The acronym stands for
‘Under Cover of Darkness’ and has no agenda bar the current whim of
those who ocassionally hide behind it. The pseudo-organisation has also
developed their own logo, to mark their operations with.
Fifteen days ago, two California marijuana growers uncovered the
remains of what they believed to be a U.F.O. buried on the slop of Bare
Mountain. When arrested by the Siskiyou County Sheriff's Department,
the duo attempted to parlay their discovery into a plea deal. While
this was unsuccessful, their discovery was passed on to Saucerwatch
which after some research has dispatched a group to examine the alleged
crash site. Delta Green noticed their interest and sends the Agents to
investigate.
"And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven,
burning as if it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the
rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; and the name of the star is
called Wormwood; and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and
many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter".
Revelations 8:10-11
Despite the conspiracy's best efforts to keep things
`compartmentalised', Delta Green agents will occasionally encounter
other agents on `active duty'. If they are really unlucky, they will
have to deal with the fall out from another Cell's `opera' that has
gone horribly wrong…
There's been an unexplainable disappearance of a suspect inside a
police station. The story goes that a woman recently arrested for
fencing antiques got a guard to let her out of her cell in the middle
of the night, then made her way alone to an evidence room which she
entered by punching in a correct six-digit code. She immediately
located a weapon to be used as evidence in her case, as if she already
knew where it was, and then she vanished into thin air.
Seven terrorist groups plan to use mythos sorcery as weapons of mass
destruction and hasten the arrival of the End Times. A powerful mythos
sorcerer has created a new ritual that temporarily channels Cthulhu's
dreams to every living mind in a region, depending on the number of
humans sacrificed in the ritual. The sorcerer has distributed the
ritual to the seven groups as part of a master plan not to destroy
humanity but to 'enlighten' it and drive them to open worship of the
Great Old Ones.
