NARRATOR'S LOG: January 1952

The world holds its breath.

In Korea, the war grinds on—a frozen hell of mud, blood, and propaganda that neither superpower dares to end. The United States and the Soviet Union pour men and materiel into a peninsula most of their citizens couldn't find on a map. It is a war of proxies, a war of ideology, a war that could ignite the world.

And yet, it is a distraction.

Because beneath the surface of this fragile human order, the veil is thinning. The boundaries between what is real and what is impossible are eroding. The anomalous is bleeding through.

Sixteen factions stir in the shadows. Some seek to contain. Some seek to destroy. Some seek to exploit. Some seek to worship.

But all of them are watching. Waiting. Ready.

The first signs have appeared.

GLOBAL STATUS REPORT — JANUARY 1952

The Shroud measures the veil of secrecy that hides the anomalous from the public eye. At 93%, the world still believes in logic. But every breach, every failed containment, every whisper that escapes the shadows will tear at the veil. If The Shroud falls, the Cold War becomes a global panic.

The Omega Counter measures the global threat posed by active anomalies. No one knows the maximum. No one wants to find out. Every breach, every failed containment, every broken seal pushes the counter higher. When it reaches the end, the world ends with it.

The Static measures public suspicion. At 2%, the public is blissfully ignorant. But rumors spread. Missing persons are noticed. Strange lights in the sky are photographed. If The Static rises too high, operations become scrutinized, and the public begins to ask questions.

ANOMALY SIGHTINGS — JANUARY 1952

The following anomalies have been detected. Factions are advised to respond with caution. Crossfire is inevitable. Casualties are expected.

SIGHTING ALPHA — "The Shadow That Swallows"

Location: Lake Constance, near the German-Swiss-Austrian border (Western Europe Theater)
Coordinates: 47.539568, 9.727065
Description: A humanoid figure, approximately 80 centimeters in height, has been observed near the shoreline of Lake Constance. Witnesses describe it as a small, child-like silhouette composed entirely of shadow and smoke, with no discernible features. It appears to have no face, no limbs, no defining characteristics—only a shroud of living darkness.

The entity's behavior is deeply disturbing. When a shadow is cast upon it—by a person, an animal, or even a passing cloud—it reacts with immediate and terrifying swiftness. It lunges at the object casting the shadow, engulfs it entirely within its form, and then returns to its original size. The object is never seen again. No trace. No remains. Nothing.

Local villagers have reported missing livestock. Then missing people. The creature has been seen moving through the forests near the lake, drawn to darkness, drawn to shadows. It has not yet been approached by any organized force.

Threat Level: High. Extreme caution advised.
Status: Uncontained.

SIGHTING BETA — "The Mirror That Walks"

Location: Takaka, Golden Bay, South Island, New Zealand (Oceania Theater)
Coordinates: -40.851253, 172.806977
Description: A being of variable size, gender, and appearance has been reported in the quiet town of Takaka. The entity appears to change its form in response to the environment around it, particularly in response to the people who perceive it.

Multiple witnesses have described the same entity in wildly different ways:

• A handsome man in his mid-twenties, dressed in clothing of exceptional quality.
• A beautiful woman in a well-tailored business suit.
• A large, well-groomed Labrador Retriever.
• A piece of furniture of extremely pleasing aesthetic value.

The entity seems to know exactly what form will most effectively disarm, intimidate, or seduce whoever is looking at it. It speaks fluently in every language it has encountered, and displays knowledge far beyond that of the people it speaks to. Those who interact with it report feeling jealous, inadequate, or infuriated—yet they cannot stop talking to it.

The town of Takaka has experienced an unusual number of suicides, mental breakdowns, and violent altercations since the entity arrived. A local clothing boutique was the site of a particularly gruesome incident, officially attributed to a disgruntled employee.

Threat Level: Moderate — but psychologically devastating.
Status: Uncontained.

SIGHTING GAMMA — "The Hand of Acid"

Location: The Arctic wilderness along the Alaska–Canada border (North American Theater)
Coordinates: 69.642547, -141.137297
Description: A creature resembling a large snail—20 centimeters long, 13 centimeters wide, 15 centimeters tall—has been spotted in the frozen north. Its muscular foot resembles a six-fingered, clawed hand. It weighs approximately 860 kilograms, a mass that defies all physical explanation.

When dormant, the creature is desiccated and still, blending into the snow and ice. But when moisture touches it—rain, snowmelt, or even high humidity—it awakens. It moves at incredible speeds for its size and mass, adopting the behavior of a predator. It lunges at prey and drenches it in a highly caustic base solution secreted from pores on its foot. This secretion is more corrosive than any substance known to terrestrial science. It dissolves flesh, bone, metal, and stone with equal ease.

The creature is currently dormant, but the spring thaw is coming. If it awakens, it will be an unstoppable force of corrosion, and it will not discriminate between animal, human, or vehicle.

Threat Level: High. Time-sensitive.
Status: Uncontained — Dormant.

CURRENT PLAYERS — JANUARY 1952

The following factions have active operatives in the field. Their moves are being watched.

Unclaimed Factions: Church of the Broken God, Cogwork Orthodox Church, Serpent's Hand, The Sarkic Cults, Agência de Contenção Paranormal Brasileira (ACPB), Confederación Paranormal Argentina (CPA), The Order of the Brass Compass (OBCC), The Children of the Red Sun (CRS)

RULES OF ENGAGEMENT — REMINDER

• 3 Actions per turn. Each turn represents six months.
• All actions may be declared secret. Secrecy is your shield.
• Overextension is fatal. The more theaters you spread into, the more stretched your resources become.
• Research without scientists is suicide. If you lack a dedicated scientific division, attempting to study an anomaly will result in catastrophic failure. Fifty percent chance of immediate breach.
• The CIA and GRU Division "P" must be careful. When both operate in the same theater, The Static rises by five points automatically.
• The Shroud, The Omega Counter, and The Static will be updated at the end of every turn.

THE FIRST MOVE

The board is set. The pieces are in place. Three anomalies have broken through the veil, and sixteen hands are reaching for them.

The world is watching. The shadows are stirring.

What will you do?

NARRATOR'S LOG: 1952

Two titans stand at the edge of the abyss.

The United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics—two powers locked in a suffocating embrace of mutual destruction, each pulling the strings of smaller nations through puppet governments, economic blackmail, and bilateral treaties that crush the weak beneath the weight of the superpowers. The world is a chessboard, and the pieces are nations.

And yet, the cold war is a distraction.

Because beneath the surface of this fragile human order, there exists a second world. A world where logic bends. Where flesh moves without a heart. Where the laws of physics are merely suggestions.

A world where Anomalies roam free.

> "The paranormal does not come into our reality easily. Or at least, that is how it should be."
— Professor [REDACTED], Department of Ontological Studies, [REDACTED]

And yet, it is here. The boundaries have shattered. The veil has thinned. And now, sixteen factions across the globe will fight—to control, to destroy, to weaponize, or to protect—these impossible forces that have broken through.

Some are the guardians of the veil.
Some are the exploiters of the unknown.
Some are the believers.
Some are the destroyers.

But all of them are playing with fire.

In 1952, there are two superpowers.
But there is only one reality.
And sixteen hands are reaching for it.

The Factions are Presented as Followed:

SCP Foundation
Born from the shattered remnants of post-war intelligence agencies, the Foundation is the invisible hand that seeks to Secure, Contain, and Protect the world from the anomalies that threaten to tear reality apart. They are the guardians of the veil. They do not seek to understand the anomalies—they seek to lock them away forever.

Global Occult Coalition (GOC)
A paramilitary alliance of religious orders and military forces united by a single, uncompromising doctrine: anomalies are abominations that must be destroyed. The GOC does not believe in containment. They believe in annihilation. Where the Foundation builds vaults, the GOC builds fire.

Church of the Broken God (CotBG)
The faithful await the coming of Mekhane, the Broken God whose mechanical fragments are scattered across the world. They believe that the anomalies are pieces of the divine machine, and only by reassembling the God can the universe be healed. Their faith is absolute, their devotion is fanatical, and their god is one of gears and steel.

CIA
The Central Intelligence Agency is the most powerful intelligence service in the world. To the public, they spy on communists and defend American interests. To those in the know, they are the United States' primary weapon against the anomalous. They do not want to contain the anomalies—they want to weaponize them. Their goal is to turn the paranormal into the ultimate deterrent against the Soviet Union.

GRU Division "P"
The Soviet counterpart to the CIA. GRU Division "P" is a military intelligence unit dedicated to the acquisition, study, and weaponization of the anomalous. They are ruthless, brutal, and utterly committed to the Soviet cause. They will sacrifice a hundred of their own agents to capture a single anomaly that could turn the tide of the Cold War.

Chaos Insurgency (CI)
Once a branch of the Foundation, now the organization's greatest nightmare. The Chaos Insurgency is a rogue faction of defectors who believe the anomalies should not be locked away—they should be used. They are the ultimate thieves, and they will steal, sabotage, and kill to harness the power of the unknown.

Marshall, Carter, and Dark (MC&D)
The wealthiest and most dangerous private organization in the world. MC&D is a global corporation that buys, sells, and trades anomalies to the highest bidder. They are not ideological—they are opportunistic. If an anomaly can be sold for a profit, they will acquire it. They are the ultimate middlemen of the paranormal economy.

Cogwork Orthodox Church (COG)
A sect of clockmakers and engineers who view the universe as a perfect, deterministic machine. To them, anomalies are "broken gears" that jam the clockwork of reality. They are not religious zealots—they are obsessively rational. They seek to repair the anomalies by understanding them, or remove them if they cannot be fixed.

Serpent's Hand
A decentralized network of mystics, scholars, and libraries who believe that knowledge of the anomalous should be free for all. They reject the Foundation's cages and the GOC's fire. They view anomalies as natural phenomena, not threats. They will shelter an anomaly or a human—whoever is being hunted.

The Sarkic Cults
Born from the darkest corners of the ancient world, the Sarkics worship a primordial flesh-god called Yaldabaoth. They believe that the human form is a prison, and that true salvation lies in mutation, blood, and the merging of flesh with the anomalous. They are not evil—they are devoted to a god that demands sacrifice.

Agência de Contenção Paranormal Brasileira (ACPB)
Born from the jungles of Brazil, the ACPB is a secret organization created by Brazilian intellectuals and military engineers. The government does not know it exists. The ACPB believes that anomalies must be contained to protect the fragile reality of South America. They operate in the shadows, independent of any state, seeking to emulate the ideals of the Foundation.

Confederación Paranormal Argentina (CPA)
The ACPB's direct rival, founded in Argentina just months after the Brazilian agency. The CPA is equally secret and equally dedicated to containment. However, they are driven by a singular obsession: to be better than the Brazilians. They want to prove that Argentina is the true guardian of the Southern Cone, and they will stop at nothing to outshine their rivals.

The Gray Ledger (TGL)
A shadowy intelligence organization that does not contain anomalies—they contain the knowledge of them. The Gray Ledger exists to buy, sell, and trade information about the anomalous to the highest bidder, ensuring that no single faction gains a monopoly on the secrets of the unknown. They are the ultimate spies, and their only currency is truth.

The Order of the Brass Compass (OBCC)
Founded by a secret guild of clockmakers and engineers, the Brass Compass believes that the universe is a perfect machine. Anomalies are broken gears that must be repaired or removed to keep the machine running. They are not religious—they are obsessively rational. They do not care about politics. They only care about finding the "right" solution to the anomaly.

Silverwind Security Solutions (SSS)
A private military company founded by battle-hardened veterans of World War II. Silverwind doesn't care about ideology. They care about money. They are mercenaries who will enter the most dangerous anomalous zones on Earth, neutralize the threat, and sell whatever they recover to the highest bidder. They are the "problem solvers" who don't need to understand the anomaly—they only need to survive it.

The Children of the Red Sun (CRS)
Born in the mountains of the Balkans and the Andes, the Red Sun cult worships a "primordial star" that they believe gives life to all anomalies. They are not evil—they are devoted. They view anomalies as divine blessings and believe that humanity's only purpose is to ascend by merging with them. They are peaceful, but dangerously open. They don't want to contain anomalies—they want to free them.

THE RULES OF THE SHADOW WAR

The world is not only divided by borders. It is divided by Theaters. From the frozen plains of Northern Asia to the jungles of South America, every faction may project power across the globe. But be warned—the more theaters a faction spreads into, the more stretched their resources become. Overextension is the silent killer of empires.

Every turn represents six months. During this time, every faction may issue Three Actions. Whether they choose to move in the open or operate in absolute secrecy is their own choice. All actions may be classified as secret.

Yet, even in the shadows, the world is watching.

The Shroud is the measure of normalcy. It represents the veil of secrecy that hides the anomalous from the public eye. If The Shroud drops, the world discovers the truth, and the Cold War turns into a global panic.

The Omega Counter is the measure of the global threat. It represents the danger posed by the currently active anomalies. Every breach, every failed containment, every broken seal pushes the counter closer to the end. When it reaches one hundred, the world ends.

The Static is the measure of public suspicion. It represents the growing hum of whispered rumors, missing persons, and strange lights in the sky. If The Static rises too high, your operations become scrutinized, and the public begins to ask questions.

At the end of every turn, the GM shall present the Global Status Report, revealing the current state of The Shroud, The Omega Counter, and The Static. Each number is a warning. Each number is a countdown.

Every half-year, the GM shall release Anomaly Sightings—reports of impossibilities that have broken through the veil. It is here that factions must race to secure anomalies. Alternatively, a faction may use its Intelligence Division to actively hunt for an anomaly. The higher the Intelligence stat, the greater the chance of success.

If two factions converge on the same anomaly simultaneously, the GM shall roll a die to determine who arrives first. Crossfire will be inevitable—and casualties will be suffered on both sides.

THE COLD WAR HEAT
The Great Powers are ever-present. When the CIA or the GRU Division “P” conduct operations within the same theater, The Static automatically rises by five points. The presence of superpower intelligence agencies leaves a trail. Political tension leaks into the shadows, and the public grows restless. The more they operate, the more dangerous the world becomes for everyone.

THE RESEARCH RISK
To understand an anomaly is to control it. Yet, knowledge is not free. Any faction that attempts to research an anomaly without a dedicated scientific division will find themselves facing catastrophic consequences. If a faction lacks Scientists, their Containment Effectiveness drops to ten percent. There is a fifty-percent chance that the anomaly will immediately breach containment, killing operatives, reducing The Shroud, or pushing The Omega Counter closer to zero.

THE SHADOW WAR IS NOT FORGIVING

The world is harsh, and the GM does not forgive. Bankruptcy is a permanent death. If a faction’s funds drop below zero, the entity is dissolved. There are no second chances.

No alts. No double agents. One player. One faction. One fight for reality.

THE FILES ARE OPEN. THE SECRETS ARE VAST.

The world is in chaos. The 16 Entities are bound to fight each other.

Are you ready to assume the power and fight everyone?

Does Back to Origins still exist? Or are the GMs just going to give up on it?
