Recognition of Unnatural Contact: God's Teeth

Added 2023-08-07 22:19:50 +0000 UTC

After uncountable years of gnawing and digestion, the Delta Green campaign God's Teeth crawls through layout, desperate for some unholy birthing into our quiescent world.

Written by Caleb Stokes (Lover in the Ice, Dead Channels, Red Markets), God's Teeth first appeared as an early Role Playing Public Radio campaign when Delta Green: The Role-Playing Game was still in playtesting. That appalling experience grew into something deeper.

God's Teeth opens with an early Delta Green cell's 2001 raid on [REDACTED], an operation to shatter illusions and lives. Then it looks away for fifteen bleak years. Its remorseless will falls upon the Agents again in 2016. They must confront repercussions from that long-ago raid. Crimes long thought forgotten. Children thought saved who grew into something never seen. And a cosmic hunger that claims them as its instruments.

The campaign closes its eyes again. Space expands for another whole campaign in between, if you wish, years of hunting the unnatural, seeking impossible answers, or hoping for blind forgetfulness. Another scenario series called God's Hunt follows the Agents in those years. Expect a debriefing on that gruesome discovery soon.

God's Teeth concludes in 2020. Extended vignettes study the weird and terrible implications of life in thrall to a force of predation beyond comprehension. And a new sign rises from old operations. A name. Hints of horrors that ripened for nearly twenty years and then flowered in an unthinkably cruel metastasis. Perhaps your Agents can stop it. But can they ever stop themselves?

Delta Green: God's Teeth is written by Caleb Stokes with contributions by Shane Ivey, illustrations by Dennis Detwiller, and graphic design by Jen McCleary. It remains available as a discounted preorder. We think it will be available in PDF (free with the hardback) this fall and in hardback a few months later. But we have been wrong before. We have prayed to be wrong before.
