Delta Green Rainshadow

"The Mountain is Out"

Campaign Overview

This is the campaign Wiki for Rainshadow, an atmospheric Delta Green campaign set in the great state of Washington, where all the characters are members of or affiliated with the Washington State Patrol. The title refers to the Olympic and Cascade mountains, that create the state's distinctive pattern of heavy rain to the West and arid conditions to the East of the big mountains, as the heavy clouds coming off the Pacific can't make it over the mountain range. Mount Rainier in particular is not just a destination, but a landmark for the whole Sound area. When the rain and fog lift, the snow-capped volcano looms in the distance. Then the locals say to each other "the mountain is out" the way Alaskans talk about snow.

House Rules

Spending Willpower to Make Rolls Succeed

You can spend your Willpower Points with a 1 point per 5% difference to change failed rolls to successful rolls (but not SAN rolls, damage rolls, or Stat tests, or to change normally successful rolls into crits etc.) This represents making that extra effort of will to achieve a success. Your character knows they have the skill to accomplish this feat, but for some reason cannot initially. But in doing so, you're running down your Willpower Points, which can be dangerous.

Remember that you can also spend Willpower to project SAN loss onto Bonds, or to repress insanity. This is different to the above use - and a reminder how important it is to hang on to your WP. Fumbles can cost you WP; resisting interrogation definitely does. They're also very important for survival in hostile environments - like the bayous of Louisiana.

Remember that you suffer an emotional breakdown when your WP hit 2 or below, and total collapse when you hit 0 WP. You regain 1d6 WP after a full, proper night's sleep. Exhaustion and sleeplessness cut into that.
