CRPT Mission - Operation Tropic Bliss

OPERATION TROPIC BLISS

CLASSIFICATION: CPRT EYES ONLY
DISTRIBUTION: NOVEMBER BLACK CELL
ORIGINATING AUTHORITY: Dr. Noldrick, CPRT Directorate

1. SITUATION

a. Official Intel

U.S. naval and reconnaissance aircraft operating off the coast of Belize intercepted fragmented, panicked Belize Defense Force transmissions. The transmissions referenced:

• An unidentified craft repeatedly violating Belizean airspace

• Multiple landfalls in the southern mountainous interior

• Unknown signatures on Belizean radar prior to signal loss

When the U.S. formally offered assistance, Belizean officials abruptly rejected all cooperation and issued a diplomatic warning:
No U.S. forces are to enter Belizean territory under any circumstances.
This stance is inconsistent with Belize’s historically cooperative posture.

b. CPRT Intel

Dr. Noldrick assesses the situation as highly anomalous. Belize’s sudden hostility suggests:

• Internal political pressure

• Coercion by an unknown actor

• A desire to conceal the nature of the craft

A CIA asset in Belize City has contacted Langley claiming a local witness has seen the craft up close and is willing to talk — for a price.

c. Hostile Forces

• Drug cartels and human trafficking syndicates dominate the southern interior.

• These groups are heavily armed, territorial, and known for swift, violent retaliation.

• Some factions may attempt to capture or exploit any non‑terrestrial technology.

• Avoid if possible but deadly force authorized as required for mission success.

d. Friendly Forces

• CPRT November Black (primary operational element)

• USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN‑72) providing:

  • Staging

  • Infiltration support

  • Extraction

• U.S. Navy SEAL Team 8 assigned to support infiltration/exfiltration only

• They are not read into CPRT

• They will know you only as a CIA Black Operations cell

• Temporary CIA credentials will be issued

e. Unknown Forces

• Belize Defense Force (BDF) units may be patrolling the region

• Their rules of engagement are unclear

• Avoid contact

• If engaged and fired upon, deadly force is authorized

f. Civil/Terrain Considerations

• Southern Belize is:

  • Mountainous

  • Dense with triple‑canopy jungle

  • Poorly mapped

  • Interlaced with cartel‑controlled trails and illegal airstrips

• Weather is humid, visibility inconsistent, and comms unreliable inland

2. MISSION

At the earliest opportunity, CPRT November Black will:

1. Deploy to USS Abraham Lincoln

2. Coordinate with SEAL Team 8 to plan covert infiltration into Belize

3. Make contact with CIA asset Estevan Pacheco, Belize City

4. Secure a meeting with Pacheco’s third‑party witness

5. Primary Objective:

   • Confirm visual contact with the unidentified craft

   • Determine whether it is of terrestrial or non‑terrestrial origin

6. Secondary Objective:

   • If non‑terrestrial, secure technological or biological samples

7. Tertiary Objective:

• Assess whether Belize’s government has been compromised or influenced

• Identify cause of sudden diplomatic shift

Purpose: Determine whether an extraterrestrial presence is establishing a foothold in the Western Hemisphere.

3. EXECUTION

a. Commander’s Intent

The intent is to identify the nature of the craft, prevent hostile actors from exploiting it, and ensure the United States is not blindsided by a non‑terrestrial incursion.
Success is defined as:

• Verified intelligence on the craft

• Recovery of actionable samples (if safe)

• Zero exposure of CPRT’s existence

• Minimal footprint inside Belize

b. Concept of Operations

Operation Tropic Bliss will unfold in four phases:

Phase I — Deployment

• November Black boards USS Abraham Lincoln

• Briefing with SEAL Team 8 CO

• Finalize infiltration method (HALO, small‑craft insertion, or coastal covert landing)

Phase II — Contact

• Insert into Belize City under CIA cover

• Meet Estevan Pacheco at his business front

• Secure meeting with the witness

• Verify credibility and extract intel on craft location

Phase III — Recon & Recovery

• Move to southern Belize interior

• Locate landing site

• Conduct reconnaissance

• Document craft

• Secure samples if feasible

• Avoid BDF and cartel patrols

Phase IV — Extraction

• Exfil via SEAL Team 8

• Return to USS Abraham Lincoln

• Deliver samples and intel to CPRT command

c. Tasks

November Black

• Maintain operational cover as CIA

• Conduct HUMINT with Pacheco and witness

• Perform recon and sample retrieval

• Avoid engagement unless necessary

• Maintain radio discipline and low signature

SEAL Team 8

• Provide infiltration/exfiltration

• Offer limited tactical support if compromised

• Not read into extraterrestrial aspects

CIA Asset (Pacheco)

• Facilitate meeting with witness

• Provide local intel and safehouse options

• Maintain plausible deniability

d. Coordinating Instructions

• Rules of Engagement:

  • Avoid Belize military

  • Deadly force authorized only if fired upon

• Cover Identity:

  • CIA Black Ops cell, Langley origin

• Operational Security:

  • No mention of CPRT

  • No electronic transmissions referencing extraterrestrial material

• Time Constraints:

  • Craft may relocate or self‑conceal

  • Belize government may escalate internal lockdowns

• Contingencies:

• If Pacheco compromised → switch to secondary CIA contact

• If witness missing → track cartel chatter for sightings

• If BDF captures team → invoke CIA cover and request diplomatic extraction (last resort)

4. ADMINISTRATION & LOGISTICS

• Medical:

  • USS Abraham Lincoln medical bay on standby

  • Field medkits issued

• Equipment:

  • Standard CPRT loadout

  • Non‑attributable weapons

  • Sample containment kits

  • Portable EM anomaly scanner

• Resupply:

  • None expected in‑country

• Detainees:

• Avoid taking any

• If unavoidable, transfer to SEAL Team 8 custody under CIA cover

5. COMMAND & SIGNAL

Command Structure

• Operational Control: CPRT Directorate

• Tactical Control: November Black Team Lead

• Support Control: SEAL Team 8 CO

Communications

• Encrypted short‑range radios

• Burst‑transmission satellite uplink (Lincoln only)

• No long‑range transmissions from inside Belize unless emergency

Codewords

• TROPIC BLISS: Operation active

• SUNFALL: Craft confirmed non‑terrestrial

• MIRAGE: Belize military contact

• BLACK LOTUS: Abort and exfil immediately

GM Notes

• After meeting with Estevan Pacheco and his contact, the PCs will find out that the craft has been going to Thousand Foot Falls in Caylo, Belize where it disappears beneath the ground somehow. The falls are surrounded by the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve and is thought to be the highest waterfall in the Central American region, plummeting down 1600 feet. There must be a hidden base there.

• There's a nearby Hidden Valley Inn Private Airstrip about 1 klick distance from the falls.

• Regarding the primary objectives, the ship is indeed of extra- terrestrial origin. It is a two-story craft about fifty feet tall, rectangular shaped, and 500 meters long by 100 meters wide with engines on the back.

• If they infiltrate the ship, it is guarded by four Bulbous Heads who, if the PCs enter, attempt to surprise the PCs and fight to the death.
