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.

Miskatonic's darkest days were in the 1930s.
Depression gripped the nation and MU was not spared, particularly after
not one but two disastrous Antarctic expeditions. But the school
survived by biting the bullet.
In the year 1926, Ralph Carter, a semi successful stockbroker and full
time bohemian underwent a personality change at a party. He passed out
for an hour and woke up as someone else. No one at the party really
noticed. They assumed he was resting and brought him right back into
the party.
"The Five Fingers on the Hand of God" are a unique Mythos-hunting
organization: they do not care about attaining forbidden knowledge or
saving mankind from ultimate destruction at the hands of the Great Old
Ones. They care only about doing as much damage as possible to the
degenerate cults who worship them (with especial animosity toward the
Cult of the Bloody Tongue), and they are uniquely qualfied to carry out
their aims: the group is a secret cabal of "Made" Mafia men, a
conspiracy nested within a conspiracy, with access to better weaponry
than any official body, and no constraints other than those laid down
by their shadowy 'Capo', Giuseppe DiCaprizzi.
In the small town of Pátzcuaro, located just a few hours out of Mexico
City, something has happened. In the sealed basement of an abandoned
school, the thing that was thought to be dead has been re-awakened and
escaped its bonds. Delta Green is called in to investigate after the citizens of Pátzcuaro begin bringing their dead children to hospitals
in pieces. The local police have set up a neighborhood watch, but that
won't stop the killings from continuing.
One of Delta Greens newer recruits just died. Before she went the way
of the dodo, Agent Oona suffered a nervous breakdown and recruited a
friendly without alerting her partner Agent Otto or Cell A and told him
whole assortments of falsehoods along with actual truths. She became
nearly entirely dependant on him and even put him down as her sole
benefactor even though she owns practically nothing. She even taught
him a spell just in case he became `involved'.
The SIV is a small group of priests (primarily Jesuits), religious
(mainly Benedictine monks and nuns) and layfolk from various Catholic
charity and political groups. The SIV's mission is to investigate alien
activities and provide analysis for the Pope and his advisors. It
coordinates with other intelligence agencies dedicated to alien affairs
as needed, but the primary goal of the SIV is to deal with alien
contact from a philosophical and religious (specifically, a Catholic)
perspective. It is an informal branch of the Church hierarchy in Rome
and has no legal standing, although most national governments look the
other way at its actions as long as they are discreet and don't get in
the way.
The conspiracy wants the cell to participate in Grey Goose, a
federally-sanctioned readiness drill simulating a terrorist attack on a
nuclear power plant. This will take place in about a week, on the
grounds of a decommissioned plant scheduled for eventual demolition
(readers are invited to consider Oregon's Trojan Nuclear Power Plant
for inspiration). Because of the timeliness of the operation, this
drill has attracted significant public attention. Attendees consist of
municipal, state and federal personnel from across the region.
This scenario finds the agents at the end of an assignment that has
them in New York on Christmas Eve. The only prerequisite is that the
characters have recently worked with a 'Friendly' in the
medical/biochemical field, in the New York area. He is a
thirty-something year old doctor called Dr Martin Dowe, whose passion
is the field of genetics and related chemistry. Aside from his talents
in this area he is relatively quiet and unremarkable, and can be
tailored as you see fit. The players should be familiar enough with the
character that they should actually care about the character enough to
want to help him.
