Delta Green: Reverberations

This scenario is shockingly racist and reads like a white-nationalist conspiracy theory.

This scenario's antagonists are the Tcho-Tchos, an embattled Asian ethnicity who are intrinsically evil from their very birth. So cartoonishly evil, in fact, that the leader of their political advocacy group, the CAAA, is also a member of a flesh-eating cult. No sensitivity readers are credited for this project, and it was written exclusively by white men. The writers of Delta Green seem to be fairly progressive people, and I doubt they intentionally wrote the scenario to be this hateful, nonetheless what they've made isn't "mature cosmic horror". Its the racist anxieties of an author from the 20s reimagined as a police procedural by contemporary game designers.

Some might suggest that you could homebrew the problematic elements out of the scenario, and indeed you might but at the end of the day, I still had to read through this racist drek. If I pay for a prewritten scenario I shouldn't have to "fix" it.

The accusations of racism directed at this scenario and the antagonists known as the “Tcho-Tcho” are ridiculous and silly. In modern horror EVERYONE is on the menu. EVERY uncomfortable subject is always in the story background. The creators of Delta Green should be congratulated for going out of their way to adjust Lovecraftian horror and place them in modern context. The Tcho-Tcho are only Asian-American in appearance…not culture or language. Far away from a white-nationalist fantasy, the writers made them smarter and more resilient than humans of any color. It would only benefit to have Chinese or Vietnamese-Americans in your group to run this scenario. “Reverberations” is a good starting-point for a campaign against the Tcho-Tcho or if you have DEA agents as your DG characters. Otherwise there are better DG introductory scenarios out there. It’s a short criminal procedural investigation that takes a sharp turn into cosmic horror. It can be set in any city or town in the US. There are several interesting NPCs to interact with to keep the investigation moving. It's a good scenario but could have been great. There are no maps for the buildings, no pics of the main NPCs and the final baddie is an ill-fitting choice. So you will still need to do some work as a Handler to really make this scenario frightening and memorable. In the end YOU are running the RPG at your table and if you don’t like elements of the game…change them! If you’re going to look for political or social triggers (without reviewing the actual material) than adult TTPRG’s aren’t for you.
