Task Force: Specter Unit
Scenario: Operation Black Hollow
Date: 14 November, 0200 hrs
Location: Black Hollow, West Virginia, USA
Threat Classification: Type IV Paranormal Convergence
Command Authority: Department of Paranormal Containment (DPC) – Strategic Action Division
Task Force: Specter Unit – Full Deployment Authorization
INTEL BRIEF:
Local law enforcement reported multiple disappearances in Black Hollow, a rural mining town long abandoned after a cave-in in 1986. Over the past 72 hours, satellite thermal imaging and EMF sweeps have detected escalating anomalies—a spike in spectral resonance, accompanied by Type-B Hostile Apparitions and an unidentified choral signal pulsing every 44 seconds through abandoned mine shafts.
Civilian containment protocols have failed—two containment teams (non-Specter) sent into the AO did not return. Remaining security cordon is holding, but anomaly growth rate suggests full spectral breach into nearby populated areas within 9 hours.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
Identify and Neutralize core paranormal anchor.
Retrieve missing containment personnel or confirm KIA.
Secure and Collapse mine shafts to prevent anchor reformation.
Prevent spectral contamination of neighboring counties.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
Capture samples of the choral signal for occult analysis.
Recover any pre-collapse artifacts tied to mine’s history.
MISSION PARAMETERS:
Amalia will serve as field commander and primary anchor disruptor, deploying heavy anti-ritual ordnance.
Blitz will breach mine entry points with riot shield and high-caliber suppression, anchoring initial breach phase.
Lense & Scope will operate in a dual overwatch/recon role—Scope covering long-range kill zones from hilltop, Lense mapping subterranean routes via cloaked ingress.
Sayer will work on-site with Amalia, decoding the choral resonance and identifying occult traps.
Matches will prep demolition of spectral anchor site using thermite and glyph-charged napalm.
Chop will provide melee overwatch inside narrow shaft combat zones.
Ghost (K9) will track spectral presences in zero-light conditions and warn of anchor proximity.
GOVERNMENT POSITION:
DPC Strategic Action Division treats Black Hollow as a containment-critical event. All operatives have full rules of engagement with lethal and supernatural force authorized. Civilian knowledge suppression protocols are active.
MILITARY DOCTRINE:
Doctrine follows Rapid Isolation & Targeted Eradication (RITE)—deploy small, specialized kill-teams to sever paranormal anchors before mass manifestation. Urban collateral is secondary to spectral breach prevention. Expect zero tolerance for hesitation.
THREAT FORECAST:
Manifestation clusters in proximity to historical mass-death zones.
Ambient resonance may cause hallucinations, spatial looping, and false target projection.
High likelihood of physical injury from collapsing mine structures during engagement.
ENDSTATE:
AO neutralized, anchor obliterated, anomaly readings reduced to sub-baseline within 3 hours of insertion. Civilian memory suppression operations initiated within 12 hours.
