Hello, everyone-
I apologize for the lack of updates on the Insider but as some of you may have noticed, the site has taken on a life of its own that is far larger then anyone could have predicted. We have currently added someone in your ranks as a Mod to the Private forum on the SG site. We could not be more excited with the response to the site, but we ask that you bear with us as we work on transitioning this properly so that you can continue your awesome roleplaying.
Thank you again for your support and keep up the fun!

As if the EOD wasn’t bad enough on its own. But I think it’s time you all heard about the Bloodwatch. Now this information is so secret that there are members of the EOD who don’t know they exist. They are the society within the society. And they make sure the EOD’s secrets remain secrets.
After the debacle about 80 years back or so when the government came stomping and ruined their chances of waking the fish-god, the EOD decided they needed to implement a group whose sole purpose was damage and information control. I told you guys before that they may behind on technology but they they are learning quickly.
The reason I am letting you know about this is that we recently spotted one of them in town. It was only a glimpse but that means they are mobile. And that he was seen at all means it must have been a hell of emergency. I’ve got theories as to why and make sure you keep all discussion of this group to these boards only. We don’t need widespread panic. But know that if one of us goes missing, it’s entirely likely we were snatched in the night by one of them.
It would actually be better to kill yourself.
A lot of you are out there fighting the good fight keeping each other alive. Just don’t take stupid chances. Watch each other’s back. And above all keep your wits about you. The Blackbird and ME’ whereabouts are still unknown but I have some leads. Keep the faith. We might pull this off yet.
****ASIDE***
While the time on this board is measured in real days, we are still moving alongside the “comic” timeline. That is why there are certain timeline discrepancies. Don’t overworry too much. It will all make sense to you someday.

All right. I don’t know how many of you saw the press conference this morning, but I think it’s obvious to anyone with half a brain that the D.A. is completely full of shit. The very fact that he would lump Rebecca McKay into this makes the entire thing suspect. That and the fact that we know that these murders were committed by Offspring.
There were three bodies found early this morning. They were dismembered and showed the same markings as the wounds on the women from the McKay case. So this means a couple of things. Either the M.E. wasn’t able to put that together or his report is being suppressed. Now in a normal situation you might go looking for evidence, but when we’re dealing with Innsmouth the first thing you look at is genealogy.
1. District Attorney Charles J. Bear was born in Innsmouth. His parents lived in Innsmouth and were fairly well to do. His father was an executive and the mother was of course the perfect accessory wife socialite. But his ties to this town go deep.
2. Medical Examiner Paul Briggs was born in Chicago, IL and was offered the job less than a year ago. He has no real ties to the town.
So what does this mean? It means if you have a question and one of your suspects was born and raised here and holds a position of power…then you doubt. You doubt until they prove otherwise.
I don’t know what’s going on but I’m going to work on tracking down this M.E. He showed up to handle the case and then hasn’t been answering calls. He’s a non-resident and now he’s gone missing. His wife is out of town. And now you doubt some more.
Keep an eye out for the cops and specifically this dirtbag. I’ll let you know what I find out next.
We’re gathering slowly. People are trickling in from all over the country. We’ll figure out a good place to meet in the next week or two.

So here we are. I am compiling the list of volunteers, verifying your identities, and will be sending you a message soon to let you know about your assignments. My current plan is to divide you into three separate units.
Unit One- Ranged Strike
The first unit will be our long range team. People who are skilled with firearms, (particularly rifles) will be assigned to this group. There is no reason to engage these creatures in hand-to-hand unless it becomes absolutely necessary. You will attack first. You will lay down cover and suppressive fire. You will wear them down and hopefully make it so that no one has to get hurt. Even the Offspring can be hurt by penetrating rounds and their Progenitors will be shredded.
The second unit is the tech/support team. We need people with tech, paramedic, field medic, and engineering abilities. Some of what you’ll be doing is obvious, the tech people will be constructing some devices for the third unit to use.
The third unit is the wet team. Their job is clean-up, extraction, and corralling. This team is the most likely to make direct contact with the enemy and needs to be the most physically capable. (The fastest, strongest, or most skilled. We need drivers real bad.)
Once the teams are established you will get your assignments. If there’s something you’re particularly good at, let me know.
I will keep you posted as to the location of the Blackbird as well.

Over the last few weeks I’ve introduced you all to some of the true goings on in Innsmouth. Some of you have believed and others have doubted. It honestly doesn’t matter at this point.
I was hoping to introduce you all slowly to this world but circumstances have caused me to move up my timetable. I’ll say this for you believers, you have done great research and brainstorming into ways to fight this evil…however it is in part due to you that I am adjusting our plan. It was never my intention that some of you crazies would actually go out on your own looking for trouble. I know that trouble has found you as well but the time for fucking around on your own is quite over. Not only are you putting yourself at risk but you risk the lives of innocents around you. This isn’t some crazy bunker group we’re working on here; we are constructing the last line of defense between whatever is out there and your damn families. So its time to stop acting like lunatics and becoming something greater.
I’m telling you that the day is quickly arriving where you will either become a believer or you will go insane.
I’m telling you that the forces conspiring against us are organized and lethal and in order to combat that we need to follow their example and stay one step ahead of them.
I’m telling you that there are forces for good on our side and that no matter how powerful they seem, they need our help.
I’m telling you its time to kick some ass…and I need to know where you stand.
In the comments section of this blog indicate whether you are ready to make a stand. Make sure you have a functioning email address attached to your comment when it asks you for one or I will assume you are a liar. I will contact you privately once the names are assembled.
I know that not everyone here can be a warrior, but we need people of all walks to make this work.
And once my list is assembled.
The planning begins.

Now that the enemies are identified…it’s time that we learned more about them; how they are different and how they are alike. The group as a collective are called Deep Ones, but we have learned over the years that there is a distinct hierarchy between them.
First, we have what they refer to as the Progenitors. They are the ones that look like the creature from the black lagoon. They are the indigenous race of the underwater city they hail from and while seemingly unintelligent, possess a native cunning and vicious pack mentality that makes them incredibly dangerous.
Physically, they are built to withstand the pressures of the depths. But instead of a tougher epidermis, it is flexible and somewhat stretchy…(kinda like squids). They are amphibious, but they need to stay submerged to keep their skin from drying out and to remain flexible. Their internal organs are under considerable pressure and if you are able to puncture their epidermis they will bleed out quickly. I don’t know the real science behind the reason that they melt away once they die, but we have theorized that is part of an enchantment placed on them to keep their secret.
The Progenitors are part of the ancient pact between the EOD and the Deep Ones. In exchange for the gold they needed humans to mate with. (That movie about the fish men stealing women came from somewhere) Progenitors have a specific Sex. they are either male or female. And when they mate with a human they produce a Deep One: Offspring. And these are the massive, carapace covered creatures that are immortal and near invulnerable.
The Offspring are far more powerful and intelligent than the Progenitors but they revere them. They have an enormous amount of respect for the creatures that gave them life and will go out of their way to look after their less powerful parents.
More to come soon my friends. Stay strong!

Okay, you’ve read about the Masonic Order of Innsmouth. By now I expect you to know better. The Masonic Order was a cover for the true work of the Order. When Obed Marsh returned, he did start his order. He went after the richest and most powerful first and bent them to his will and purpose. Once the rich were brought in, the poor quickly followed and they were used as slave labor…or used in ritualistic sacrifices to fulfill the secret mission of this cult. A secret that is easy to discern once you know the real name of Obed’s church.
The true name of this religion was the Esoteric Order of D#gon. (DO NOT SAY THIS FREAKING NAME ON MY SITE! I DON’T CARE WHAT YOU’VE READ OR WHAT YOU BELIEVE. DO NOT FUCKIN SAY IT!!) Their goal was to awaken this great Old One and all of their wealth and power went into achieving this goal. And of course the first step in that goal…is awakening his consort. This process takes years to accomplish and as you know, they did not succeed the first time around.
But times…are a-changin…

Have you read this nonsense? They are actually deifying this monster. Anyone who has studied sociology can see that the behavior patterns of Obed (Obadiah) as a young man are similar to those of other cult leaders such as David Koresh or Charles Manson.
His charisma, and force of personality is not something that can be denied but the very idea that he would do any of this out of sense of selflessness. When you consider that he had several older brothers who, during this generation, would naturally assume leadership of the family business. But what we’re looking at here isn’t a natural assumption, this was a carefully planned hostile takeover. Obed, somehow, got the sailors on his side. A 19 year old kid convinced a CONVOY full of grizzled and seasoned tradesmen to listen to his plans and to make him the new leader of the Marsh Family in all the ways that are important.
Way more to him than they are telling us here.

All right, if you’re here, I’m assuming you bothered to read the full text of the “historical” information on Obed Marsh. Let’s break it down section by section.
He was definitely the richest and most powerful man in Innsmouth, if not Massachusetts and he and his family made the bulk of their fortunes by taking advantage of the Polynesian natives. But after that it gets tricky. The natives didn’t just die. They were murdered. Do you hear what I’m saying to you? They were murdered and offered up as sacrifices.
While in Polynesia, Marsh discovered an ancient religion practiced by a reclusive bunch of natives. This religion revolved around a curious red gem that was called, (loosely translated) The Red Hydra. Marsh stole this gem and claimed to receive a vision. A vision of a new religion. He then laid waste to the entire population in exchange for enough wealth to fill his ENTIRE FLEET OF SHIPS!
He brought his wealth, this gem and his new religion to Innsmouth and disguised it as an Order of Masons. He promised the followers gold and plentiful fishing. Pretty soon…everyone was on board. And then there was another plague.
Two plagues. Two civilizations brought to their knees by the ambition and greed of one man. And not a goddamned word in any history book about it.

Just so you guys know I’m serious. I’ve posted a picture I managed to take a few weeks ago. Click on the gallery image on the left. I think it’s obvious that we’re looking at something not human. There are a couple different types of these creatures, all referred to as Deep Ones but they have different deliniations.
These, fish-men, have incredible senses. Able to smell, track, and hear with preternatural ability. Their claws are razor sharp. (This one shredded this deer like it a wood chipper) and I won’t even get into their teeth. If you see one…RUN…run screaming. Their ears are very sensitive and its possible it will startle them, giving you a few seconds to get away. Or better yet, carry a pocket alarm, or dog whistle. It will drive them batshit. I am not even close to kidding. Take a good look at this thing people. That could be the last face you see.
