The library
Deceit The reference library. Pattern dictionaries, recovery packets, and print-ready materials you can carry into a session, a meeting, or a 2 AM that needs them without a browser tab.
Every file is free. Every factual claim in every PDF traces to a source. Print them, share them, hand them across a table. The vocabulary is meant to travel. A few titles below are marked Coming soon: pulled back in for a rebuild against everything the site has sourced and corrected since they first went out. The next version knows more than this one did. The Signal will say when they land.
Volume I — Institutional & Interpersonal
The flagship reference: every lexicon pattern as a pocket dictionary, with recognition signals, stabilizing moves, and a guided tour of how patterns compound.

The print-and-share artifacts are designed for physical distribution. The Field Digest folds from a single letter sheet into a 16-page pocket booklet. One sheet is the whole print run, and every copy carries its own assembly instructions. Print the flash cards duplex on card stock, cut along the crop marks, and the fronts and backs line up. The posters print at 11×17 tabloid. The Field Guide is saddle-stitch ready.
Print-on-demand copies of the Field Guide and research reports are available at cost through Lulu. No markup. The price is what the printer charges.
The ARG artifacts (the Bureau Field Manual, the Recruitment Brochure, the Pattern Codex, and the Resistance Guide) live on the fiction hub. They use intentional visual corruption as part of their aesthetic; plain-text transcripts are available for screen readers.
Every factual assertion in these PDFs traces to a source in the frontmatter of the originating piece. If a claim cannot be sourced, it is removed or marked as speculation. See the editorial policy and corrections policy. If something here is wrong, use contact.
