  • HORROR NEVER DIES DELTA GREEN a NIGHT at the OPERA Born of the U.S
    HORROR NEVER DIES DELTA GREEN A NIGHT AT THE OPERA AT GREEN A NIGHT DELTA Born of the U.S. government’s 1928 raid on the degenerate coastal town of Innsmouth, Massachusetts, the covert agency known as Delta Green opposes the forces of darkness with honor but without glory. Delta Green agents fight to save humanity from unnatural horrors—often at a shattering personal cost. collects six Delta Green operations, or “nights at the opera” as agents sometimes call them. A NIGHT AT THE OPERA Each scenario stands on its own as a moment of terror. Combined, they expose agents to the edges of the horrors of the world of Delta Green, then suck them into abysses of fear and desperation from which the world itself may never emerge. A NIGHT AT THE OPERA » REVERBERATIONS: An introductory scenario in which the agents confront foes that were old before Delta Green was born. » VISCID: Investigating a geneticist’s gruesome death, the agents confront lethal conspiracies and horrors that never should have been made. The agents must investigate a house that may be haunted by things more » MUSIC FROM A DARKENED ROOM: terrifying than ghosts. » EXTREMOPHILIA: Can the agents stop the spread of an unnatural threat? Or will they become just another vector for the disease? » THE STAR CHAMBER: The agents must hear and adjudicate the horrific after-action report from another team— by way of playing out scenes from the earlier mission in between scenes of the present day. » OBSERVER EFFECT: The agents investigate a cutting-edge physics laboratory that may have looked a little too deeply into the nature of reality.

  • Cthulhu Lives!: a Descriptive Study of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society
    CTHULHU LIVES!: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY OF THE H.P. LOVECRAFT HISTORICAL SOCIETY J. Michael Bestul A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2006 Committee: Dr. Jane Barnette, Advisor Prof. Bradford Clark Dr. Marilyn Motz ii ABSTRACT Dr. Jane Barnette, Advisor Outside of the boom in video game studies, the realm of gaming has barely been scratched by academics and rarely been explored in a scholarly fashion. Despite the rich vein of possibilities for study that tabletop and live-action role-playing games present, few scholars have dug deeply. The goal of this study is to start digging. Operating at the crossroads of art and entertainment, theatre and gaming, work and play, it seeks to add the live-action role-playing game, CTHULHU LIVES, to the discussion of performance studies. As an introduction, this study seeks to describe exactly what CTHULHU LIVES was and has become, and how its existence brought about the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society. Simply as a gaming group which grew into a creative organization that produces artifacts in multiple mediums, the Society is worthy of scholarship. Add its humble beginnings, casual style and non-corporate affiliation, and its recent turn to self- sustainability, and the Society becomes even more interesting. In interviews with the artists behind CTHULHU LIVES, and poring through the archives of their gaming experiences, the picture develops of the journey from a small group of friends to an organization with influences and products on an international scale.
