00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:28,680
Welcome to Agents Dossier, a Delta Green actual play series brought to you by 12 Sided Stories.

2
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:48,240
And now your GM, Wes Otis.

3
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:55,960
Hello Patreon listeners and welcome to the very first show of Delta Green Agents Dossier.

4
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:01,480
We are going to be doing this show especially for our Patreon backers as just a really big

5
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:05,960
thank you for supporting us, supporting 12 Sided Stories.

6
00:01:05,960 --> 00:01:12,600
The way that this is going to work is we're starting out with Michelle as our first agent,

7
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:17,600
and then we're going to slowly work in other agents, as in cast members, as we go along.

8
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,840
But for right now, let's introduce Michelle.

9
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:28,360
Hello, nice to be talking to all of you. And I'm really excited. I get to play Agent Perla

10
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,840
Ayala and we're going to learn a little bit about her story.

11
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:40,160
Yep. So basically, this is before any of the characters have actually joined Delta Green,

12
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:45,040
and then we're going to kind of get everybody into the mix as we go along.

13
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:50,680
So why don't you tell us more about who you're playing and what's her background, all that

14
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:51,680
good stuff.

15
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:58,400
Well, Perla is currently a professor at the University of Virginia. She is a forensic

16
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:04,400
anthropologist, so she loves to deal with them skeletons. She's very close to her family.

17
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:11,120
Her parents, Horhen and Sylvia, are still alive and actually pretty young enough. And

18
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:17,120
she has a brother named Peter. She's also married to her husband, Ron Calderon. They

19
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:23,920
have this nice little life. She's, like I said, a professor of forensic anthropology.

20
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:32,720
Her husband is also a professor of English. I just made that up on the spot.

21
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:38,760
We can make stuff up. It's a game, after all. The family members and everybody you just

22
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:44,280
mentioned in this game are your bonds. Now, for those of you who've never played, this

23
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:51,600
is the new edition of Delta Green. It's one of my favorite lines or IPs, whatever. Even

24
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:57,260
if you never play a Delta Green game, I think you should own the books. And they don't pass

25
00:02:57,260 --> 00:03:01,760
any money. So they're great. It's awesome. Awesome stuff.

26
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:09,040
It's very close to Call of Cthulhu, but you have bonds. You can use those bonds to lessen

27
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:16,480
the amount of sanity you have to take. So, whenever you have to roll against your sanity,

28
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:21,560
if something horrible happens, then you can use your bonds. But over a while, your bonds

29
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,000
start to break down. There starts to be more problems.

30
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:32,140
Delta Green is not, like all Cthulhu games, but probably even worse, a game that usually

31
00:03:32,140 --> 00:03:39,400
has a happy ending. But that's the ride. That's the fun part, watching everything go down.

32
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:45,540
So, you're teaching. How popular are your courses? Are you a popular teacher?

33
00:03:45,540 --> 00:03:48,280
Flippenberg-Helpingen I wouldn't say I'm a popular teacher.

34
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:54,120
I'm well-liked, but it's not like people are knocking down my door to take my courses.

35
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:59,960
My courses are usually for the more advanced students who are really going to go into forensic anthropology.

36
00:03:59,960 --> 00:04:03,240
So, PhD people or masters?

37
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,200
Probably both.

38
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:12,080
How many classes do you teach in a week, do you think? Probably three or four?

39
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:21,080
Probably about three, because the rest of my time is going to be advising doctoral candidates.

40
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:28,120
After a long day of teaching, you head back home. Your husband is cooking dinner. He usually

41
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,800
gets home. Is he a college professor as well?

42
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,360
Yes, he's also at the University of Virginia.

43
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:39,820
He gets back a little bit early and is cooking dinner. Does he teach as advanced classes

44
00:04:39,820 --> 00:04:44,760
as you, or does he teach the hundreds and two hundreds class or something like that?

45
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,080
He's usually teaching the undergrads.

46
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,920
So he goes, how was your day? Did you have a good day?

47
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:55,240
Yeah, it was pretty good. Pretty standard day, not much happened. How about you?

48
00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:03,720
It went well. One of my students left this flyer. He pulls out this orange flyer with

49
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:09,640
a bunch of band names on there. Do you remember going to shows?

50
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,400
Oh my god, it's been forever. This is so cute.

51
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:22,280
Yeah, it's interesting. This last one's kind of weird. It says it's the Grave's End.

52
00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:24,000
Probably somebody trying to be edgy.

53
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:30,080
Well, yeah. I think that the picture of the grave with a shovel in the dirt is kind of

54
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,960
funny. I'm sure it's like a metal band or something.

55
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,520
Oh, more than likely.

56
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,040
How mortified would students be if we showed up?

57
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,880
They would die. It would be the Grave's End.

58
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,560
Yeah, it's pretty cheesy. You think we should go?

59
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:45,560
Oh yeah.

60
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:53,200
Alright. So you guys have a pretty good rest of the week. You're sitting in your office

61
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:58,400
on Friday. This show with all these bands is happening on Saturday. You hear a knock

62
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:06,000
on the door and standing there is a man in a black suit with a red tie, nice like silk

63
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:18,040
tie. He's older, probably in his mid-50s and he just kind of looks like a fed, like a stereotypical

64
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:23,840
fed except for the fact that he has a colorful tie on. He says, ma'am, are you the head of

65
00:06:23,840 --> 00:06:29,120
the anthropology courses or do you teach anthropology?

66
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,960
I teach forensic anthropology.

67
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,800
Ah, okay. I'm in the right spot. My name is Agent Roos.

68
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:35,800
Agent?

69
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:44,240
Yes, I'm with the FBI and we recently had a discovery at a construction site. It's a

70
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:50,800
set of bones. We're not quite sure what they are. So we were kind of hoping to maybe hire

71
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,800
you as a consultant to come down and take a look.

72
00:06:54,800 --> 00:07:01,520
Well, that sounds really interesting. I'd like to see some credentials first though,

73
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:02,520
please.

74
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,200
I'm sorry, I'm not used to being on campus and it's kind of weird. He pulls out a photo

75
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:12,880
and a badge, his wallet and shows you. He goes, here you go. If you're interested, it's

76
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:20,540
actually here in town. They're building a new theater near Scott Stadium and you know

77
00:07:20,540 --> 00:07:26,480
it's not very far. This guy's obviously not a local so everything seems really far away

78
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,280
from him. Anyway, they called us in to check it out. There were some oddities with the

79
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:39,600
bones. Anyway, so if you wouldn't mind going with us, my partner's actually out in the

80
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,520
car. If you wouldn't mind driving over with us, you could follow us if you want.

81
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:48,000
Yeah, I'll probably follow you. Let me just text my husband and let him know.

82
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,400
Absolutely. We'll meet you out in the parking lot.

83
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:55,420
Alright. I probably have some sort of kit because I've been on a lot of archaeological

84
00:07:55,420 --> 00:08:01,720
digs and things like that. I dig my kit out and head to my car and I text my husband on

85
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:02,720
my way to the car.

86
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,760
Okay. Everything seemed legit.

87
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,960
I text him back, yeah. I checked his badge, looked legitimate. Everything looks good.

88
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:16,440
Alright. You get out to the car and his partner's a woman probably a little bit older than he

89
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:22,680
is. She's black with short hair and nice suit on and her hair is completely white at this

90
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,760
point. She says, hi, I'm Agent Wells.

91
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,000
How do you do? I'm Dr. Ayala.

92
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,720
Oh, it's nice to meet you. You just follow us and come over to the site. So you follow

93
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:40,920
over there and they've got this large section of ground, like this big square dug out of

94
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:46,520
this area near the sports stadium. And the people kind of stand around. You can tell

95
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:53,680
it's like crew and management wanting this to be resolved quickly.

96
00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:59,080
Agent Wells says, well, they called us two days ago. At first we thought we were dealing

97
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:03,720
with a skeleton and it wasn't going to be that big of a deal, but they said that there

98
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:09,420
was some problem with it. We had no idea. She's talking to you as you guys are walking

99
00:09:09,420 --> 00:09:17,400
down this graded dirt slope. And as we dug up more, we found more than one skeleton.

100
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:22,580
And so when they found multiple skeletons, that's when they called the FBI. First they

101
00:09:22,580 --> 00:09:30,520
just called the police department, local PD. So you get down to the bottom and there's

102
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:39,520
a group of like 20 skeletons, like a mass grave, like they've just been thrown in and

103
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:49,520
the bones of each of them are fused together. So it's not separate skeletons. It's a bunch

104
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:53,240
of skeletons fused together into one block.

105
00:09:53,240 --> 00:10:04,240
Okay. And I go, Ooh, I wonder what could have caused this. This is, you're right. It's unusual.

106
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:10,360
Yes, it is. Do you now, what kind of skills do you have? Do you have anthropology? You

107
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:11,360
have?

108
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,640
I have anthropology. I have forensics. I have archeology.

109
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,480
Do an archeology role first, I would think.

110
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,200
Made it 28 under my 40.

111
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:25,640
Okay, cool. So you look at it and the first things that you recognize is the fact that

112
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,960
the bones don't look aged. They don't look like they've been in the ground for a very

113
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:35,320
long time. So you have no way to go, Oh, it's five years old or it's a year old or whatever,

114
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:40,280
but you can tell that they're newish as it were. The other thing that you notice is that

115
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:47,680
you have like a femur of one skeleton fused into the skull of the next skeleton. So they

116
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:55,480
make a large web of skeletons fused together. You can't see like melting or anything. It's

117
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,200
almost as if they were alive this way.

118
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:04,400
It's almost like conjoined twins, but multiple.

119
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:11,880
Yeah, like a mass. The other thing that you notice is that it looks like, because you

120
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:16,400
can tell the difference between like their pelvic bones and everything else, it looks

121
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,320
like it's all men. There's no women.

122
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,320
Interesting.

123
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,560
Here. Okay.

124
00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:30,680
Are there any other things like in the dirt, around the dirt that might give me any clues?

125
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:35,080
Give me a search role.

126
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,280
I did not make it 64 over my 40.

127
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:46,600
Okay. So you're searching around and yeah, you find this chip of black stone that is

128
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:52,160
out of place. Why it's here, you have no clue. It kind of looks like lava rock, the really

129
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,680
shiny black lava rock.

130
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:56,200
Kind of like obsidian a little bit.

131
00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:02,160
A little bit. Yeah. And they have them like all over like Hawaii and stuff like that where

132
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:11,760
there's active volcanoes. Anyway, so it's a really shiny rock that looks like a triangle

133
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,440
and it's really thin. Obviously someone created it.

134
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:16,960
It doesn't look like an arrowhead?

135
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:24,000
No, it doesn't. It looks like a perfectly measured out triangle. That's about, each

136
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,600
side is about an inch.

137
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,100
Okay. Can I tell the ages of the skeletons at all?

138
00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:36,320
You're going to have to do more research for that. Like you know how old they were in their

139
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,320
lives?

140
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:38,320
Yeah.

141
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,040
Give me a forensics role.

142
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,160
Yes, 38 under my 50.

143
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:52,080
Okay. Most of them look like they were in their late 20s and mid 40s.

144
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,080
Okay.

145
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,200
So a good 20 year span.

146
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:07,400
Okay. Well, from what I can tell, all of these skeletons are male, 20s to 40s, but they're

147
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:15,120
all blended together like organically. Not, it doesn't look like they were burned and

148
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:23,700
the bones fused somehow. It looks like they grew this way, which makes no sense to me.

149
00:13:23,700 --> 00:13:28,640
And I found this and I showed them the triangle thing, which definitely looks manmade, but

150
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,640
without a full team here.

151
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,280
Agent Russ says, what do you mean team? Like an archeological dig?

152
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:40,280
Yes. I mean, you know, cause you would need archeologists, you need a geologist to find

153
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:49,600
out more about these, this black rock. We would need, you know, we would need anthropologists

154
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,360
just to understand some of the history of the area.

155
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:57,080
Agent Wells says, is that something that you could put together?

156
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,800
Yeah. Yeah, actually I could.

157
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:04,840
All right. Well, we'll have human resources give you a call and talk about how much all

158
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:11,200
this is going to cost. And I'll go tell the overweight gentleman up there with the odd

159
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,800
look on his face that he won't be able to start working again for another, how long

160
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,800
do you think this will all take?

161
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:27,560
I, this is going to take a while. I mean, this could take weeks, if not months.

162
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,200
Not my problem. And then Wells starts to walk up the thing.

163
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:41,080
I have one more question. Am I able to tell, like, ethnicity as far as is it, are they

164
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,040
Native American? Are they African American?

165
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,720
No, not right off. That's a little bit deeper dive that you would have to do.

166
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:55,120
A lot more research, like longer hours. You're even a little sketchy on how old they were

167
00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:01,800
when they died because you have your field kit, but some stuff just, it takes a lot longer.

168
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:11,840
Okay. So I go back to the university and I have to start talking to the higher ups about

169
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:17,280
assembling a team and giving us the time to do it and everything like that, because that's

170
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:24,680
not something you could just do on a whim. And so I'm going through the process of that.

171
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:30,160
Okay. Who would you go to in particular? Like, would you go straight to the dean or would

172
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,040
you go to the head of your department?

173
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,920
Probably the head of my department first.

174
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:37,960
What's the head of your department's name?

175
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:38,960
Really?

176
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:39,960
Yep.

177
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:40,960
Joy Crandall.

178
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:48,680
Wow, that's a good name. I like that. Joy Crandall. So you're heading over to Joy Crandall's

179
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:54,720
office. Come in, come in. So nice to see you. How are you?

180
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,880
I'm doing well, Joy. How are you?

181
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,840
Oh, you know, every day is good. How can I help you?

182
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:07,320
Well, something very interesting happened to me today.

183
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:14,480
And I had actually an agent from the FBI show up at my office.

184
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,760
Oh, well, that's exciting.

185
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:25,760
It was. They're actually what happened was they are digging for a new theater in town,

186
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,000
you know, over by the stadium.

187
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,760
Yes, I know.

188
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:38,520
And they found some skeletal remains, a lot of them, and they asked if I would put together

189
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:45,600
a team to go and dig it out and figure out what happened there.

190
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:51,520
Well, so they don't think it's a like foul play kind of thing.

191
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:52,520
It's

192
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,280
No, but it is different.

193
00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:02,760
Well, I think the best way to go about it is to talk to your students and find out,

194
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:08,720
you know, maybe pick students that want to work for either extra credit or as part of

195
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:15,080
their thesis or project. Start with them. Is the FBI footing the bill for this?

196
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,000
That's the best news. Yes, they are.

197
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:23,160
Well then I'm completely OK with all of it. As long as my budget doesn't have to take

198
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,880
a hit, I'm perfectly fine with that.

199
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,920
Exactly. I just I know I'm going to need other professors.

200
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:34,160
Yeah, of course. I would like to see what the site looks like.

201
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:35,600
Oh, that would be lovely.

202
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,080
I mean, if it's as interesting as you say.

203
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:45,440
Well, I do need an archaeologist for the dig. I would love to have you come along.

204
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:51,480
I figured we could work around our teaching schedules and it's close enough by. It's not

205
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:55,400
like we're flying to, you know, some other country or something.

206
00:17:55,400 --> 00:18:02,320
True, true. No, I agree. All right. Well, do you teach tomorrow?

207
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,960
No, actually, tomorrow's one of my off days.

208
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:13,960
So you don't have any classes tomorrow? It's Saturday. Let's say Tuesday.

209
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:14,600
OK.

210
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:20,560
That gives you a few days to get the group together and we can all go out there and see what's what.

211
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,160
All right. I think this is going to be really interesting.

212
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,080
Should be. Have a good weekend.

213
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,800
You too. Thanks.

214
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,800
We're going to fast forward to you guys going to the show.

215
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:32,280
OK.

216
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:40,920
You have sent out all the emails. You have most the PhD candidates who are not completely

217
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,760
burnt out at this point are really excited.

218
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:50,240
The ones who just wanted to end are like, all right, fine, we'll be there.

219
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:56,680
You also have a lot of just volunteers, people who pop up who are like, oh, I really want to do this.

220
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:03,600
There are your overachievers, you know, anything that looks good on a resume also popping up.

221
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:11,280
So you guys put on what you feel is like your best outfits to go to a place where someone

222
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:16,320
your age probably hasn't been to in a while.

223
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,640
So, you know, your husband has on jeans and a t-shirt.

224
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,040
What would you be wearing?

225
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:28,000
Probably similar like jeans and a t-shirt, maybe like a little jacket, you know.

226
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,360
Right, right.

227
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:38,720
You guys head over there and the first like most of it is pretty hardcore metal stuff.

228
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,680
I don't know. Is that something you think you guys would even enjoy?

229
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:47,240
Probably not, but we're just laughing because it's all so silly.

230
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:48,560
Are you guys drinking at all?

231
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:49,960
I'll probably have a beer.

232
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:56,000
Okay. So you have a beer and you're watching and then Graves End finally comes on

233
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,720
because they're like the headliner.

234
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:02,240
They've got on the white makeup with the black around their eyes and everything.

235
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,840
And, you know, they look like Norwegian.

236
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,240
They look like a Norwegian death metal band, definitely.

237
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:19,400
And they start to play, there's a dissonance in the melody that is hitting your brain wrong.

238
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:25,440
It just kind of starts to really feel like you're almost like you're underwater

239
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,920
and everything's kind of muted in a way.

240
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:35,160
Like everybody's like dancing and running around in a mosh pit kind of thing.

241
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:41,400
And they look like they are turning back into like apes.

242
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:42,040
Right.

243
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:49,520
They're kind of slumped over and they're hitting each other and they're screaming and everything.

244
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:54,160
And your husband turns around and just starts throwing up.

245
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:59,560
Make a sand check for me.

246
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,920
Yes, 43 under my 70.

247
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:15,880
Okay. So you are, for whatever reason, keeping yourself above the threshold of whatever the hell this is.

248
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,480
And you see he's throwing up and having a really hard time.

249
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,640
And that the crowd is getting more and more dangerous.

250
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:29,480
Like some of them seem to be like attacking each other, biting each other's faces,

251
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,480
doing horrible, primitive caveman kind of stuff.

252
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,080
The band seems like they're far away.

253
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,320
The music is right there all around you.

254
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:48,520
But there is there's definitely a strange temporal distance between you and them as they're cranking through this song.

255
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:49,880
That's just bizarre.

256
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,560
What do you want to do?

257
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:58,720
I think I grab my husband's wrist and try and get him to the door.

258
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,200
He doesn't fight you.

259
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,920
And you guys get out of the door.

260
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,680
What do you want to do?

261
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:11,120
I want to get as far away from the building as I can because I'm seeing what was going on in there was dangerous.

262
00:22:11,120 --> 00:22:14,040
So I try and get him to the car.

263
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:22,600
Okay. When you guys get in the car, you look up and you notice that there are two figures.

264
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:27,680
You can't make them out because they're all in black with black hoods.

265
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:33,400
And they look like they're armed and they go through the front door.

266
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:41,160
You can still kind of hear the music all the way out to where you're at because those clubs don't have the greatest whatever.

267
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:49,400
And then you can hear the popping of automatic gunfire.

268
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:53,680
And then there's just silence.

269
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:59,400
Do you leave before they come out or do you watch from the car?

270
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,000
Get down the block a couple blocks and then call 911.

271
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:10,200
Okay. You leave, you go down, you call up 911 and report what you've seen.

272
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,400
And they say, okay, we're going to stay where you're at.

273
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,680
We're going to send a car down.

274
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:21,880
Sure enough, within five to 10 minutes, a bunch of cops show up and they locate you.

275
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:30,160
You explain to them what happened, takes down all your information, doesn't give you any indication of what's happened.

276
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:35,520
Just says thank you for your time and kind of send you on your way.

277
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:46,600
The next morning, which is going to be Sunday, you wake up and there's no mention of it at all in the newspapers.

278
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,680
There's no nothing.

279
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,480
Sounds like burping.

280
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:58,080
So there's no mention of any like gunplay, no police, anything.

281
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,480
So I'm going to jump forward again.

282
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,680
Your husband's sick the entire day Sunday.

283
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,560
It takes him a while. Monday morning, he's feeling much better.

284
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,080
Oh, good. Okay.

285
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:14,240
Tuesday, after you've gotten everybody together, you get to the site.

286
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:20,600
And the foreman of the dig sites, you know, asking a ton of questions.

287
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,360
How long is this going to take? What is why does this have to happen?

288
00:24:23,360 --> 00:24:27,160
Can't you move all the bodies out anyway so we can keep working?

289
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:28,920
Yada yada yada.

290
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:35,920
And Dr. Crandall is just like, look, you know, we don't want to move anything until we find out what we have.

291
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:41,840
We're going to start moving stuff out as we figure out what's going on.

292
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,200
Because there's obviously a lot of bodies here.

293
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:50,120
So you start to dig for a good portion of the day.

294
00:24:50,120 --> 00:24:52,120
Now, are the agents there?

295
00:24:52,120 --> 00:24:53,840
The agents aren't there this time.

296
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,720
OK. And I forgot, I'm sorry, the male agents name?

297
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,720
Agent Roos and then Agent Wells.

298
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,640
Agent Roos is the older white gentleman.

299
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:10,360
And then Agent Wells is the older black agent.

300
00:25:10,360 --> 00:25:25,280
So a couple of days go by and as they dig deeper, they find that the area of skeletons covers about a 30 by 30 foot square.

301
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,000
Yikes.

302
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,040
Perfectly. Right.

303
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:33,040
And there are several more skeletons than originally thought.

304
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:43,640
And as they get down to the first layer, they realize that there are skeletons that are on top of each other.

305
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,760
So it's not just one layer of skeletons.

306
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,880
It's like it's huge.

307
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,240
It's like a big block of skeletons going down.

308
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:56,560
You can see through it like there's like you can see through holes and stuff.

309
00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:01,040
It's not like there's mortar or anything holding them together.

310
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:09,360
And at some point, Dr. Crandall comes up to you and goes, I thought we'd be able to unearth at least the mass of this and move it.

311
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:11,640
But it's it's very deep.

312
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:16,800
I know this is this is so bizarre.

313
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:22,480
I mean, it's a perfect 30 by 30 square.

314
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:35,360
I'm wondering if the perfect 30 by 30 cube, do we need to dig on either side 30 feet down till we get to the bottom of it and then somehow extract it in one piece?

315
00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:43,240
How do you extract a 30 by 30 foot cube of fused together skeletons?

316
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,080
Very carefully.

317
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:55,920
No, I mean, I think we should definitely keep digging, but it might be a while till we get it completely free of the earth.

318
00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:07,560
Yeah, I guess the best we can do is dig as much as we can and document as much as we can so that if it does break, we at least have photographs.

319
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,960
Right. Makes sense.

320
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:17,000
Because it's even too big to like, you know, how archaeologists will put stuff in like a foam or, you know, whatever.

321
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,920
It's even too much for that.

322
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,040
Like, yeah, absolutely.

323
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:27,040
You spend the next few days digging and sure enough, it keeps going down and going down.

324
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:34,080
It's literally thousands of skeletons fused together in different angles and everything else.

325
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:41,800
Some of it defies some logic, and as you go farther down, people on the site start to get a little shaken.

326
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:48,200
I need you to make a sand check as well, just because looking at this every day is making your brain hurt.

327
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,640
I made it a 10.

328
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,640
OK, so you're still OK.

329
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:59,000
You're still able to kind of say that there has to be a logical explanation for this.

330
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:05,960
So on Thursday night, you drive up and your husband's car is not there.

331
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:14,760
And he's already texted you that he's going out with some friends to watch some game or something like that, something innocuous.

332
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:24,280
And when you park, you notice that the door between your house and the garage is open.

333
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:34,800
I'm probably still weirded out by the whole experience Saturday and everything that's going on.

334
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,320
I don't know if I feel comfortable just walking into my house.

335
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,240
OK, so what do you want to do?

336
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,360
I don't know.

337
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,720
I guess sitting in your car and sitting in my car like so.

338
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,720
Have I pulled into the garage already?

339
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:55,120
You pulled in and then you realize that the door going into the house, leading into the house is open.

340
00:28:55,120 --> 00:29:02,160
Well, then I might not think anything of it because my husband may have just left it open.

341
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:02,880
OK.

342
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,280
So I guess I just walk in.

343
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,960
Honey?

344
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:12,680
You hear what sounds to be like sizzling from the kitchen.

345
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,720
OK.

346
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:21,320
Is there anything in the garage like a bat or a golf club or something?

347
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:28,160
OK, I grab a bat and I slowly like try and peek around the corner to the kitchen.

348
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,080
You see a guy standing there.

349
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:38,240
He's got on a very similar black outfit to the one that you saw the gunman in standing there.

350
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:43,280
He's got a couple of eggs cooking on your stove.

351
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:48,560
Can you give me a stealth roll?

352
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:49,240
Wow.

353
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,760
Ten again under my 30.

354
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:52,160
All right.

355
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,920
So you're kind of looking at him.

356
00:29:53,920 --> 00:30:01,600
He flips the eggs over, puts it on a couple pieces of bread, some ham, puts it on.

357
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,440
What are you going to do?

358
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,000
Do I recognize him?

359
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:06,680
No.

360
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,400
But he's just cooking eggs in my house.

361
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:09,600
Basically, yes.

362
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,400
Can I help you?

363
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:16,240
If you had better soda in this house, it would be nice.

364
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,280
That would be a good start.

365
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,480
He picks up the sandwich and takes a big bite.

366
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:27,960
And that's where we're going to stop it before you can say anything.

367
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,640
So thank you very much for playing, Michelle.

368
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:31,480
I appreciate it.

369
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:32,320
Thank you.

370
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:39,640
And I hope everybody enjoyed our first episode of Delta Green Agent Dossier.

371
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,000
We appreciate you guys listening.

372
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,320
We really appreciate your support of the show.

373
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,560
Our goal with these shows is to probably put out two a month.

374
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:53,240
That would be probably where they're not going to be as long as our normal shows,

375
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:54,840
but they're still going to be cool.

376
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:56,120
So that's good.

377
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:56,840
Well, it's fun.

378
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:01,760
Michelle and I are on Playit Mail Games.

379
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,240
She's at where are you at?

380
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:03,800
Michoulu?

381
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,520
At Michoulu, M-I-C-H-U-L-A-T-U.

382
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,440
That's where you can find me on the socials, usually Twitter.

383
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,960
Yeah, I'm pretty much Twitter too.

384
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:16,720
And you can find our stuff on DriveThruRPG or on BattleBards under Playit Mail Games.

385
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,920
So if you're interested in sound effects, check those out.

386
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:40,320
Thank you guys so much for listening and we look forward to talking at you soon.
