Delta Green: The Tenth Region of the Night

 

A cornfield drowning in heat haze. A shotgun exploding in the dark. Seasonal flooding and the buttered metal reek of synthetic opioids. Lapping water in a place where light cannot exist. 

 

Gencon 2026 Recap: Pickup Games

 

I ran two pickup games at Gencon with my friends and played a couple games. My friends wanted to play His Majesty The Worm so I brought some spare character sheets to the convention and ran them through the same scenario from the ticketed event. Later we painted some Delta Green Agents using a Wargames Atlantic sprue I brought to the con, and I ran them through a Delta Green adventure at the airport.

 

Gencon 2026 Recap: Scheduled Games

Special thanks to the free painting table and to my friends for painting with me
 

I ran two ticketed events at Gencon 2026. All the players did a great job and we finished both sessions early, a little over two hours in a three hour slot.

 

Appendix N 2026 Bonus Dungeon: Hung Over and Harassed

 

In His Majesty The Worm there are a lot of city events that, if taken seriously, would be an entire adventure in themselves. The book chides the reader not to play out these adventures because it could turn the campaign into a “town game”.

Guess what we’re doing today?

Appendix N 2026 Bonus Adventure: Mines of Magog

 

A Work Relief Archaeology dig at an American Indian mound unearths a “red sarcophagus”. It disappears in the night along with several excavators, most likely looted.

A “bald cougar” attacks Civilian Conservation Corps workers, who chase the beast off with thrown rocks. The bite is unlike any the camp doctor has ever seen, like the man was stabbed with a sword.

A rancher wakes up one night to a group of men stealing his sheep. The confrontation turns violent and he shoots one, chasing the rest off. The body is an ape-man.

A teen boy tires of neverending agricultural hardship and hunger. He tells his sister he’s going to meet the yellow woman he saw in his dreams and runs away from home.

It all leads to one place:

THE MINES OF MAGOG

Into The Odd: Clerics of the Carmine Dawn

 

The Brilg and Spowegg expedition to Hogman's Plain was going great. The desert was lethally hot by day and infested with undead by night, but the gunboat cared not for either as it motored up the River Hog. When the sun rose over the mountains and stayed trapped there for sixteen hours, bathing the desert in perpetual dawn light, Captain Yarrow of the Rent Seeker wasn't fazed. He sent four of his handpicked explorers ashore to investigate the tower on the horizon, in case there was some connection to the otherworldly weather.

• Dimitri the Aleman and his Mule
• Skar Disanto, Disgraced Detective
• Cassie "Castle", Ax Woman
• Barb the Barbarian, from the lands outside Bastion

It was a bit of a hike to the tower. The sun didn't go anywhere. 

 

Appendix N 2026 Dungeon: Clerics of the Carmine Dawn

The Clerics of the Carmine Dawn have tidally locked the planet. The sunlit side will boil. The nightside will freeze. Only a band of twilight will remain habitable unless a scratch team of heroes can infiltrate the Clerics’ Tower.

Appendix N 2026 Bonus Adventure: The Flickering Hope of Fusang

 
The first Emperor of the Qin Dynasty in China, in search of the magical herbs of longevity, had ten great ships built, and the Court Magician Xu Fu with five hundred virgin boys and girls, carrying treasure, food supplies, and equipment, set out for the Eastern Land of Fusang.

Appendix N 2026 Bonus Dungeon: The Essence of Eblis

 

Before God taught man the divine art of water creation, the desert was ruled by the Djinn. They called storms as they pleased, bringing rain to their worshipers and drought to those who defied them. One such Djinni was Eblis.

 

Fallout: Yellowstone Masterpost

Berann

 

Your prairie village in the Montana wasteland has been struck by plague. A burrowing creature with a glowing belly bit a child, who fell ill a few days later. By the time the town doctor noticed the swelling in the kid’s lymph nodes, the disease had already spread among the populace. You were spared the ravages of the plague. You’ve been sent south into the seething cauldron of Yellowstone to find medicine to save your town.

Dune 2d20: Whalefall Masterpost

When a Bene Gesserit sister's escape pod lands in the tryworks outside Harko, she has two options: get out fast, or be butchered with the whales. On Giedi Prime they use every part of the animal.

 

Riverboat Gambler: Epilogue

 

The mantis Colored Shell leaped from the slab and fell atop the bounty hunter Senthrax Blackmath. Somewhere the tribe did the same to the Orc and the Amazon and the others. They might have been within the reach of a claw or in line of sight or far away. Colored Shell didn't notice or care after her forelegs closed around his body. She clasped him tight and he struck her four times for every one bite she took from his head. The first rasping cut from her mandibles caught the spikes of his helm and injured her. The second too. 

 

Wanted! Reward: CC 10,000: Blood on the Dancefloor Solo Playtest

Bozo the cyberharlequin emerged from hiding to catch the Gouged Petunias when they played a set at the Eggshell. Lone bounty hunter Just Ice seized the opportunity to take the killer clown down solo. Bozo and his girlfriend Columbina grabbed a table at the center of the bar, under the skylight. The Petunias ran through a cover of Night of the Assassins while Just Ice mounted the side deck and climbed up onto the roof. He wanted to drop on top of Bozo through the skylight and apprehend him before the clown could deploy cybernetic enhancements, drugs or heavy weapons.
