TERRORS LURK IN THE DARKNESS,subvert the souls, and corrupt the mind.

Secret detachments of psychics remotely view our every move. Powerful occultists perform secret rituals inhidden locations, manipulating our world to their ends. Mysterious forces invade our very souls, twisting anddistorting the weak into strong and violent predators. Creatures flee from humanity’s encroachment on their

territories, then strike out when prying eyes get too close. Spirits haunt the edges of our silent fears.

This is the paranormal side of the world of Conspiracy X. Operatives struggle to uncover secret occult cabals, exorcise dangerous spirits, investigate the creatures of myth, and project their minds into future.

The threat of alien invasion may loom, but the corruption of humanity by paranormal forces lurksbehind every mission. Can you truly say you are prepared for the direst of humankind’s imaginings?

The ageless battle against the paranormal continues.

Chapter OneBriefing

The Truth is Stranger than FictionWe don’t want to scare you, but what you’re about to read is inspired by reality. Don’t be fooled,

real technologies and techniques have been developed in the realm of psychic abilities to make espi-onage and population control easier. So shocking are recent revelations in parapsychology which formthe basis of sections of this book, one can but wonder what still remains classified. Secret detachmentsof psychics spied on the Soviets through the darkest years of the Cold War, Czech scientists createdobjects that can be imbued with psychic energies, devoted occult scholars study magic and the super-natural, and Aegis is only beginning to understand the implications.

You may have to suspend your skepticism a little, and remember that some of the magic theories inthis book are designed to be fictional, although they are inspired by reality. In the real world, a greatmany faiths, including Wicca, Voodoo and even Roman Catholicism include the practice of magic andrituals as part of their faith. Nothing in this book is intended as a slight to any of these beliefs and wehope that, when using magic in gaming, players try to avoid denigrating the sincere beliefs of any faith.

Finally, it should be pointed out that Cryptozoology is a real science, although it isn’t respected inthe halls of academia. Relegated to the realms of “The X-Files”, Cryptozoologists study hundreds ofdifferent animals all over the world, real men and women working on real scientific problems. Whilethe purported existence and the attempted scientific study of creatures like Bigfoot or the Loch NessMonster have made cryptozoology famous, such fantastic reports have also been used by detractorsto cast aspersions on cryptozoology’s scientific validity.

So, whether it is psychic, magical or biological in nature, Chroniclers are urged to look into the real-ity behind the game and open their eyes to extreme possibilities.
