The main source will be the first edition of delta green (that used the old rules of CoC before the 7 edition; I personally use the 5, but any other will be ok).
The character sheet should be the one from the delta green core book.
I need one character with heavy science/biology proficiency.
You will be from cell "J". You have all worked together one mission before.
I'm giving you 10 extra points to weapon skiils.
You must work to national agencies (please, no local sherifs): FBI, NSA, CDC, the list is big.
Any doubt, don't hesitate to ask.

I'm thinking of playing an FBI agent who specializes in finding missing children. What are the occupational skills? I also don't have the old Delta Green, just the new one, but I do have the regular 6th edition rules. Is there any difference between the DG character sheet and the regular CoC 6th edition character sheet, such as different skills?

Mr K!
I'm hoping I can reuse a character I created for another DG game here - DG Joint Task Force Special Operations. Character's a DEA special agent. I'll post him, tell me what you think. Obviously, he's totally a ripoff of the character Javier Pena from Narcos, as played by the great Pedro Pascal.
Computer Science might need a rethink for 1983...
(The DG Joint Task Force game never really got very far.)

This must be the 5th edition skill list. The lowest base skills are 0%, not 1%, and I recognize some of the old skills no longer part of the character sheet. They're out of alphabetical order, most likely due to translation. Some base skills say "ra," but I'm not sure what that is. Does "o" indicate an occupational skill? The only ones marked with one are Hide, Climb, Locksmith, and Disguise.

I copied this from the delta green sheet, but some things didn't go well. The "ra" is for some reason 10. I think now it is correct

OK, so my character was created using the new rules which are not easily transferable. I'm going to create the character again from scratch. I have found a copy of the original DG rules to use.

There are also templates for FBI Forensics Expert, Criminal Behavioural and Hostage Rescue bit the latter two may not have been a thing in the mid 80s.

Name: Rose Bradshaw Occupation: Environmental Scientist Sex: Female Age: 39 Nationality: US Affiliation: Environmental Protection Agency Schools and Degrees: BSc Biology, University of Illinois Code Name: Juniper
Background
Rose is a technician working for the Environmental Protection Agency, a role she fell into after college. With only a bachelor's degree she has found herself stalled in her career and treading water, despite her extensive scientific knowledge, doing the grunt work while she watches younger, less talented scientists pass her by. She has two kids, Darren (16yrs) and Sarah (14yrs), with her husband Kyle who works in a factory producing farm machinery. While she's grateful for what she has in life, she can't help but think there's something more and since being recruited she has relished the opportunity to work with law enforcement on some really out-there stuff. However, while she's thrilled in principle, Rose isn't sure she's really got what it takes to keep doing this work, particularly after the last case...
Tall, with the wiry frame of a dancer, but her slouch and baggy cardigans give her more of the look of a suburban mom. Her personality does nothing to disabuse that notion - she is friendly and perhaps a bit too obliging.

Can I switch STR to INT and be a CDC Researcher or EPA Scientist, maybe included in the team because they know there's a research facility nearby but not what goes on there?

I'd like to swap stats around too, if I may. SIZ and INT are on 2D6+6, so you should give +4 to those scores. Also, your Medicine looks like it should be 65, not 60.

Special Agent Alicia Catera

by Mr. Handy
Name: Alicia Catera Occupation: FBI Special Agent Sex: Female Age: 27 Nationality: American Affiliation: Federal Bureau of Investigation Schools and Degrees: B.S., Criminal Justice, Washington University at St. Louis, 1978 Code Name: Juliet
Background:
Alicia Catera has always loved having fun, and she never grew up completely, thoroughly enjoying her college years. Though she is now an adult with heavy responsibilities, she is still a child at heart and continues to play games in her spare time. While she is pretty, her abrasive personality and attitudes can turn people off, and she has remained single, though she does want to have children someday. It is her ability to get into childrens' minds and relate to them that enables her to be good at finding missing children, in which she specializes at the FBI. She joined soon after graduating, leaving her native St. Louis to enroll at the FBI academy in Quantico. Her experience with early video games has given her great hand-eye coordination as well, making her a naturally skilled markswoman. In the post-Hoover FBI, she has found a place in the agency where she can excel. She has recently been recruited by a secret organization within the government called Delta Green, which enables her to defend not only her country but all of humanity from threats most people have never even imagined.

Yeah, I know, but my 3D6 rolls were only average. I needed the higher rolls elsewhere, and not even the 12 would do her justice. I had decided to use this actress's picture before I made any rolls. APP is more than just looks though, it's also about personality. The same thing happened with Bonnie in The Horror on the Glen, who also got stuck with an 8 APP. She looks good, but once she opens her mouth, that doesn't matter so much any more, plus her hands are often covered with engine grease.

Wow. We are the ugliest three special agents to ever star in an 80s tv series together. (Or even fake 80s tv series.) Even the mousey one from Charlie's Angels TOS would have an easy 5 pts of APP on any of us.
Either our characters are getting killed off, or we are not getting renewed for a second season.
