A majority of the players were summoned to the Naval Base in Norfolk VA, while William and Jason bounced into Washington D.C. via Dulles International with VIP status to attend a meeting of various agencies of US government. The intent, given the talent and backgrounds of the assembled group meant something involving a paranormal/supernatural event or situation. We spent a night, and then were brought in for breakfast the next morning, which was the first opportunity many in the party had to meet.

After introductions, the group continued eating and drinking and shortly after their meal a strange droning noise entered the mess hall accompanied by a bluish light. We were disabled by the incessant noise and then treated to a blinding flash that found us waking up stark naked and in what appeared to be a room on-board a ship at sea.

Faye and Sten recognized we were on some type of naval vassal, and after some preliminary searching discovered from a paper (the Philadelphia Gazette) which was dated Oct 27, 1943 that we had been somehow transported back in time. We checked the portholes and discovered we were at sea, set about in a greenish haze, on-board the USS Eldridge (later to be linked with the Philadelphia Experiment).

We left the room after gathering some old uniforms, and made our way onto the main deck. There were many soldiers and naval personnel at the ready with damage control gear and weapons. We were going to make our way to the control room when Chloe felt a psychic emanation from a passing crew member, sending a distinct message that he wasn't human.

We followed the crew member for a little while until Sten got his attention and began asking questions. It became obvious that the crew member had something to hide and seemed uneasy about being questioned. Afterward, he took us to a hold stocked with supplies where we met another "being" that described themselves as an Elani. These aliens had been sent back in time to make the Philadelphia Experiment go convincingly awry so as to discourage mankind from making advances in various sciences and technology which would have drawn the attention of the Dracon. A different, hostile, alien species bent on seeing to the destruction of mankind.

Once we had been filled in on the details, we choose to assist the Elani with their efforts to sabotage the Eldridge. We identified and eliminated a couple of Dracon aliens, also stripping them of their disguises that enabled them to look like normal humanoids.


Everyone contributed to the fight, and while Faye helped the aliens with their sabotaging efforts, the rest of the group assisted with hunting down the Dracon to prevent them from thwarting the efforts of the Elani.
