During the terrors of this operation, Delta Green’s leaders established the STATIC protocol to deal with The King in Yellow:
- Works referencing the Yellow Sign, Le Roi en jaune, The King in Yellow, Hali, Hastur, Carcosa, Yhtill, Cassilda, and Camilla are to be destroyed.
- Individuals who produce such works are to be eliminated.
- Individuals who seem influenced by such works are to be contained or eliminated at the agent’s discretion.
- An agent’s exposure to such works must be reported to Delta Green, whose leaders decide upon a response.
- When an agent is exposed to such works, agents not exposed to them become the point of contact for the group. They must remain separate from the primary investigative arm, acting in a supporting role.
- Agents violating any of these protocols are assumed to be active threats and are to be eliminated
