Spycraft game
Codename: Double Entendre
Born in the late 60’s, the times were changing in the land and man in the Archer Foundation where having a hard time to adjust. New ideals and a swelling subculture had various organizations popping up all over the radar, causing the organization to stretch itself thin investigating every lead. Finally, a British import to the organization suggested a unique idea to solve the problem.
Dr. Branson Blackwell started to organize a secret organization for the Archer Foundation yet completely separate from the group, Codename: Double Entendre. Originally, he set up the organization within his considerable business interest to monitor and gather information from the various subcultures and less savory subsets of the population. Using the gathered information, a database that continued to grow each day, they were better able to determine any true threats among the multitude of groups pushing their strange ideas on the world.
As things grew to a head in the ‘70’s, Branson realized the group needed an pool of agents to deal with threats unsuited to the worldwide organizations who were unequipped to deal with such threats. He came up with a strange idea to cull agents best suited to their specific needs. Pouring over the numerous field reports and agent evaluations he began to hand pick those who were banned from active field activity. Agents who showed too much aggression, took to their various undercover roles too much, agents with great skill but too shy or submissive to make it alone in the field, any criteria that may have been a black mark among the normal operations could be an advantage to them as long as they showed loyalty and dedication to their job.
Project Lillith was born. Gathering agents from among the various organizations, each agent was hand picked and given to already indoctrinated handlers after swearing loyalty to the project. Each agent was assigned a suitable cover among various groups and lifestyles that would allow them to gather information and grow comfortable with the kinds of people they would have to deal with in the field.
***********************************
A new threat has emerged from cracks in normal society. A project agent investigating multiple strange deaths was found dead from and overdose, her nude body strapped to a bed in a flophouse hotel. The only clue to her demise was the last entry in her PDA mentioning something called The Fulcrum and her plan to delve deeper into it. She was last known to be investigating Vasily Sidorov, a former Russian mob thug, and his sister Yalena, who were suddenly rising entrepreneurs in the Adult industries.
With the death of an agent, the group has decided to step up their investigation of the two Russians by sending in a group of love level agents. The group, who owns a adult production company along with a national chain of strip clubs, is expected to be at the Adult Film Awards in Las Vegas where infiltration is expected.
****************************
The game will be using first edition Spycraft rules in the Shadowforce Archer setting, so psychics and mystics are allowed. I will be using GUCK rules for supplementing the action, as it were, though I want to use the rules in the background and keep it more free flowing and semi-freeform. The GUCK rules are more for fantasy so some things may require retooling but not much. Agents will use standard rules for creation and start at 2nd level. Any questions, PM me.
