As the last person takes their seat at the table, the Director begins handing each of you a briefcase. After he sets the final one down he begins speaking "Now I know you all have a curiosity as to why you have been recruited for this particular position and I am about give you information that not even members of the Congress are privy to. Department 7 is a government blackbook project, that means we do not exist but we do. Our agency is the sole government agency responsible for the dealings of the Shadow. The Shadow is the re-emergence of our distant past in a manner of speaking. Most of what you have been told in myths and fairytales has an actual basis in the real world. Magic is real but not as real as it used to be. Like a wave of energy that rolls in and flows out, it is now rolling in again after having rolled away for a millinium. Each of you has been effected by the Shadow or is linked to it some manner, wether it be through your job or your heritage. Which brings me to my first point. I would like for you to step forward Mr.Grundgehammer. Derrik here is a first generation dwarf from the Shadow. If you would alll just please concentrate upon him for a moment and use your -awareness- you will realize the truth that your mind has blinded you to. I will wait for a moment why you do this."
After a few moments pass, the image of Derrik seems to blend into an image of -real- drwaf. Not the dwarves you see on tv, not a short guy but a real dwarf... It almost looks like he stepped off the set of the Lord of the Rings. The longer you stare the more you are able to see that he is more than what he appeared to be. You can also see a slight shadowy haze around him almost like her is cloaked by shadows...
For some of you this may be a very happy time as your ideas are being realized about the real world but for some this may bring back memories of a painful past...
