Chapter 5: Dire Wavelengths - Introduction
This scenario, “Dire Wavelengths,” is from the free D20 Modern supplement at http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=d20modern/oa/20050503a by Rich Redman. You can read more about Delta Green at http://www.delta-green.com. Please note: This story hour contains spoilers!Our cast of characters includes:
- Game Master: Michael Tresca (http://michael.tresca.net)
- Hank “Guppy” Gupta (Smart Hero) played by Joseph Tresca (http://www.creepyportfolio.com)
- Jake “Blade” Iron Shirt (Strong Hero) played by Matt Hammer
- Joseph “Archive” Fontaine (Dedicated Hero) played by Joe Lalumia
- Kurtis “Hammer” Grange (Fast Hero) played by George Webster
This next short scenario is a continuation of the weirdness in Faint Transmissions. It delves further into Christine Dee’s life and the film she’s working on. There’s plenty to do here in such a short scenario: the tension between Jake and his ex-wife, Alzis and his weird instructions, the psycho fan, and the weird circumstances that might just end up saving (or ending) the world.
Really, this is the kind of gift-wrapped scenarios GM’s love. Without that tension and history, the scenario is a little bland. But with a combination of emotional conflict, daring action, and an unusual plot where the agents can’t just fight their way out of it, this little gem turned into a full-fledged soap opera.
Although I’m not so sure Blade felt too good about the outcome. [MORE]
