conversations.value: Shapes that rip and tear.  Shadows that live in corners. Windows in space and time that lead to realms of madness and decay. A dark, lurking horror that feeds off the echoing anguish of a billion tortured souls.  This is the center of a twisted, sinister conspiracy which threatens the very existence of all humankind.
  
  The Metroplexes, where most of the world's population lives, are a blend of lawless gang turf and corporate fortresses ruled by men and women powerful enough to be above the law.  The countryside is sparsely inhabited, its natives suspicious and violent. And increasing areas of countryside are turning into Demonground, from which few return.
  
  This is a modern horror game.  The year is 2053, and the Players are citizens of the Chatlanta metroplex.  Cybernetics are known, but uncommon unless you are among the ultra-wealthy.  Magic does not exist, although some psychic abilities, known as Empathy, are rumored to exist although they are mostly fodder for tabloids.
  
  ==================================
  
  This game will be based on the classic RPG Dark Conspiracy by GDW, Inc. with some modifications for the Storium format.  Players will be members of a group who have had one or two minor incidents with weird things previously, and would be willing to come together and investigate more unbelievable things. 
  
  Use of provided Natures and cards is highly recommended, although suggestions for additions or alterations are welcome.  The game will be capped at 4-6 players.

High technology proved to be only as good as the people who wield it, and as often as not conflicts over the raw materials it required excalated into wars. but people have to have hope. In the modern age of misery, they need more than ever to have a shoulder to lean on and an ear that listens.  And they're willing to pay for the privilege. Some of those who step in to fill the gap do so for a quick and easy profit.  Others are self-sacrificing saints.

As a result, the business world seems to have abandoned itself to a mad scramble to rape the Earth before anyone else gets it all.

  But lately you've been wondering if it's ever going to end. Maybe someone's manipulating things to keep everyone right on the brink but never let them go over.  maybe you and your chums ought to find out who that someone is and kick some butt.

But you know it's playing possum.  All available money and resources have been poured into clandestine operations to find out exactly what's behind the new world order. It's no longer just the CIA and FBI, either. Nowadays some of the most effective agents are FCC, EPA, SEC, IRS, and the like.  Using their primary missions as cover these agencies are collecting the data that may turn things back around.

conversations.value: Technically, the country still has a free press. But most of the national news services have fallen prey to the big money of the corps. That leaves you to fill the gap.  You work for a street corner rag that prints all the news that fits. Across your front pages headlines clamor about the ghost of Elvis and two-headed babies born on roller coasters. But in between those stories are others like the one about the ritual murders in Galveston. That one was truth, intended to draw fire on the perpetrators, and apparently it worked, because the murders stopped.
  You wish you could print nothing but stories like that.  But the more sensational ones serve two purposes. First, they draw buyers, keeping you in business. Second, they serve as camouflage to screen you from the revenge of whatever it is out there that's driving this world insane. As long as your true stories seem accidental, you've got a chance to survive.

conversations.value: with the old superpowers cooling their heels after the corporate takeover, they're not able to watchdog the world's trouble spots as effectively any more.  As a result, the temperature of brush wars has risen a number of degrees, and the countries involved are crying for someone to come and train their troops in modern warfare techniques. Of course, part of training them is supplying them, so if you're sharp, it's pretty easy to make a lot of money really fast.  You just have to be careful to duck when the bullets start flying.

Someone has to locate the source of that infection and lance it. Unfortunately, it looks like that someone will have to be use.

This field was once known as parapsychology, but as the laws governing their use have become better known, it has been rechristened paraphysics. You want to delineate the limits of those powers, to learn how they work, and to discover what has brought about their sudden upsurge in today's world.
  But your interest has led you into subjects you never expected.  you've begun to find evidence of a psychic invasion sweeping the planet. Now, you realize that the research you are doing is no longer merely simple interest: It may be the only thing that can save the world.

All the corp requires in return is that you sign a proxy allowing it to vote in your place in public elections. All in all, it doesn't seem a bad exchange, but it's awfully boring, or would be if it weren't ofr the ganges, gambling, and gin mills. You also tend to meet a lot of strange people in the slums.
