The FBI and the CIA represent the bulk of Delta Green members, but there are plenty of others. Furthermore,[spoiler]Delta Green is an illegal conspiracy within these government organizations. They used to be a legit branch, but they got officially disbanded after they got involved in the Carpet Bombing of Cambodia. But some veterans have refused to give up the fight, and they have recruited younger agents into a loose cell structure. These guys are the player characters, and they not only have to deal with Mythos threats and evil cultists, but also hiding their clandestine activities from their superiors - not to mention the steady degradation of their mental health...[/spoiler]Unlike in classical Call of Cthulhu, members of Delta Green are less likely to fight the monsters of old (though that still remains a possibility) but instead humans who have embraced the Mythos in one way or another. And that opens the way for a vast range of highly disturbing human evil...</blockquote>
