Arise, Millians, and welcome to this Unmade gaming production. Join the crew
of the Defiant as they journey through the Third Horizon at the Mercy of the
Icons, trying to understand just what's happening to the mystics in this Coriolist campaign.
Void, the show you were about to listen to, was originally a
livestream actual play on twitch dot tv slash Onmade Gaming. Arise, Midians,
and welcome on Maade Gaming. We are here for the episode of Void where
shit got real as if it wasn't already. As you saw on the recap,
it was an RP heavy week last week. So if you like we
do here and you want to support the channel the best, we do that
over on Patreon. Link for that down below. While you're down there,
click on that discord link. Join us in the discord, be a part
of the community, Be a part of the conversation, and as always,
in the bottom right hand corner you will see the corruption bar. That bar
serves two purposes. One is when that bar fills dot tries to kill us
with space. And two, every single doll that goes into that bar goes
back to these wonderful, amazing faces that you see before you that being said,
Dot, please don't try to kill us in space. That's it,
that's your segue. Well, well that would have been that it was so
inappropriate. Do do not say that, Dot, Okay, yeah, I
will, I will not say that. So it would it would have been
it would have been insulting to let me just say, all of the dead
bodies floating in space around Coriolis right now? Oh yeah, okay, So
speaking of that is the world we are currently and the Third Horizon is a
mess with war a fake toar and no matter what turn a different faction or
a group has attempted to stop it. Uh, nothing has quite worked because
the tension between the Consortium and the Homogeny and the Order of the Pariah has
gotten worse and the front line has become Coriolis, which our crews saw very
well last week as they were able to dock surprisingly thanks to some friends.
Just a little friendship, little flirty friendship between old Timir and the dock hands.
No big deal, Tony, I feel like Luca's face says it all
that like stink face. That was pretty much how it went down. But
they got through, and we're looking for sanctuary any kind of temple, but
they learned the temples had been burned, surprise, surprise, and the only
one standing that Tony knew of was part of a much larger rebellion led by
Tal's sister and an old crew member, Sul who has who won't say,
gone missing. But he's not returned with the package. He was sent on
a mission to retrieve something, and they learned he has not come back.
In fact, their intel reveals that he's kind of trapped a cornered in an
medical bay with what remains of his crew, and they've been there just over
twenty four hours. Day two is starting for them, Thursta and hunger will
set in on them. And all of you had hot soup and a poke
around the sanctuary last night. You wake up, to your surprise, nowhere
private, this place is covered in people sleeping in anywhere they can find.
Lumara is sleeping soundly. Well, you don't know if she's sleeping. She's
in this thing. She's got this thing over her, and she's there.
She's safe, is still working. The clock is still counting down. But
you notice that her vitals are looking a little low. Yeah, her vitals
are looking low. For some strange reason I've been noticing whoever might check on
Lamara okay, is that I'll think anybody is there yet? Right? We
all kind of except for I think Teo walked out of the room. Right
great? Then the then the camera sees it as it says vitals if if
we if it's overnight, there's no there's no way Malik is not staying in
that room or he's taking Lamar arm in the room one of the two.
Yeah, and Tyl would be checking on her regularly. Uh yeah, so
either Jealous gonna room. I imagine that you meet back up in Jelys's quarters.
They were given to you for your stay. Here s where Lamara is.
Malik is going to be there, whether you slept or not. Only
you know that, I mean he's used to it. Uh as, maybe
all of you gather. A woman brings in some hot tea for breakfast.
I know. The last place we left off with Alia was realizing her sister's
chained up. That's correct, What did you do? I think so at
that moment, Alia would be showing shock. There would be no response from
her no matter what you did. She is I think Alia would be like
intially like run up yeah, and just like try to wake her up,
and if she's not waking up, she tries to like break like pull out
the chain and try to like at least break it off to see if she
can. She's think of this like a cell. You're at a wall,
a barrier wall, and she's on the far wall chaine to it. It's
a it's like a special security wall in front of you, blue made of
energy of some kind and installed in this like nook of a place they make
shifted a cell. And I think she would then, if you can't get
a response, would go running around trying to get some sort of answer,
maybe find someone who's in authority in the middle, in the middle of the
night. I mean she will try, Okay, I would say then that
the only person that you find then is Julyssa. She's the only person that's
up at this later hour unless you're looking for your old crew show of hands
who did not sleep last night. Okay, Malik's up. I yeah,
I think she just would come up. They have they have Semina in the
shed at least I don't. It looks like Semina, but I don't.
I don't know which one. I don't know if she's the real one or
if she's one of the clones. But she doesn't look good. I can't
find anybody for I don't you just see her? Like flustered no response.
Yes, she realized, She realized that the Semina from Coriolis is like a
drug runner and a criminal. Right, I don't know which wonder is?
I mean any of them. Yeah, and most of them were criminals,
so they probably have her for information. Really worse, only one of them
is your sister, and that's probably not it. No one I can go
and verify, and and here what constitutes as one sam you know from the
other. They all have her memories, they all have her body and mind
kind of. They allies to a point. Mm hmmm, what where is
she? You canna stand outside? Come show me? And he gets up.
He gets up and like checks the vitals one more time, sees them.
They're green right now in the middle of the night. They're totally fine.
Great. Uh. He sees them, checks them and then follows,
uh, grabs his bag, throws it over his shoulder, and follows,
yea out, they're no problems. Yeah, everybody's like sleeping. It's like
dead quiet. Are you moving with any level of stealth. No, no,
no, okay, you then you are definitely you're spotted by by Melissa,
who's kind of on steak out, but she doesn't stop you. And
she does. She's like she's sitting on top of like a large steel uh
something. It may be a pressurizer of some kind. She's like on top
of it. She's got her like you know, big fur that she wears
and the stick she carries with the blade on the end, and she's kind
of just sitting there and she's been watching the people. But she can see
you come and go because you have to pass through the main area. Yeah,
that's advice to Lyssa. At that point, I'm like, Jealissa,
what's the meaning of this? Quiet? Meaning of this? She hops down
and comes over to you and she says, I don't know what you mean
that that's my sister. Okay. Why is she in the set? Why
is she looking like she's been tortured? Oh? Yes, her, Well
that would be because she led an insurgency. Sure, she she led a
group of agents into the sanctuary the first few nights of the that's why we
change the entrances. They killed quite a lot of innocence. She was looking
for something and we're trying to figure out what it was. M hmm.
She departed, yes, but innocent like that. Not she's been under cover.
She's been working for us for outside from what I know, from what
I've seen. M h she can she can be a criminals and petty maybe,
but then m with this. If she regains consciousness, you can talk
to her. She's not. It's been about twelve hours since she was awake.
Imagine she'll come too soon. Yeah, I don't know what you want
me to do. We're not opening that. And if you think you can
get her to wake up, you're by all means, but please don't wake
the children. Yeah, a lot of she looks around and sees the sleeping
very peacefully. Yeah, and kind of looks over at her again and how
like is it bad bad? Like? Does it look like she needs immediate
attention of any sort or she looks like she has been I would not say
tortured. This is not like they've broken out tools. This is not some
gruesome scene. You did see a trace, So they've been feeding her.
You can tell that they feel like the information is the most important thing,
So they've been trying to get that from her. But this is not this
is not a sault movie, if you know what I mean. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, so but she does. Okay, she just looks like
she's knocked out. She looks like she's been punched quite a few times.
You can see her face is kind of swollen and her lips. You know,
she's probably bleeding a little bit. Probably a broken nose or maybe a
broken jaw. But yeah, somebody's knocked her out. Like she just is
unconscious. She's just got to come back. Great, so you can talk
to her if she wakes up. She said that she's been knocked out for
twelve hours. Yeah, you know, she's a she's bleeding properly or she
needs medical ascension. Oh, she's breathing. We had our on hand,
nurses check on her. We want to know who she was looking for.
She believed they had something. She's looking for a woman. Yeah, not
really our problem, correct, she's our problem now. Abia just kind of
keeps staring at the at present and you see her kind of like walk over
and just settle down on the corner. Okay, I'll deal with him or
her, sorry, I'll deal with her. And she just leaves. Yeah,
he walks over. Hey, that that is the one from here company,
right, No, I am right. Of all the ones I've met,
I'm pretty sure only one of them is searching for something they're willing to
kill for. Yeah, I agree. What would you do then one day
you found out Mere was a clone and that there was one out there that
possibly was a murdering psychopath. I man, this this is too much going
on for hypotheticals. That's the one that's hunting tamer What at this point does
Alia know some of the dots enough to make that? Okay? All right?
How kind of just looks around and you could see you are like very
much like conflict, not conflicted, but just like why did things turn out
the way it turned out? Kind of a feel like that, Look,
why do you think or what do you think she was looking for that she
was willing to kill people for and willing to take that much of a beating
for. She's not going to break They're never going to get that information.
And honestly, this is going to sound really cold. It's best if they
don't whatever that means for her. And I kind of like that one,
despite the fact that she stranded me on a moon. I like that one
the most. Okay, listen, just let's sleep here if it makes you
feel better. I've been better. Well, right now, we have a
few hours before we have to go rescue Suel again. So either sleep here
and hope she wakes up, or either way, just sleep. You go
on and if anything happens to or if any update comes forward to the matter,
let me I'll be I'll be right now. Yeah, okay. Uh,
and Molik heads back to the room before like Malik goes like Alia grabs
his hand and kind of pulls him in both uh and sorry, my wife
just she turns to malikiopo's you should get some rest too, Yeah, and
he continues walking. Yeah, and then all your kind of just kind of
just takes a shawl and goes it closer around her. I imagine like back
to the wall as you slide down sitting across. Yeah, and we see
kind of a silence once again fall over as the camera meets in Julyus's space.
The sound of the helmet goes off as foods sound as it's as vitals
not stable, vitals not stable like across the screen, and uh, I
guess most of you had kind of planned to be there. Anyways. A
young girl has come in and left to tea as the helmet goes off.
Now, I don't know who would go straight there. Malik's already there.
Alie, I know you are probably the farthest away. What about what about
our dear talent ta mirror? Tala would have slept probably up against a wall
pretty close by. She's not gonna leave her crew and go off fucking anywhere
else because frankly, there's nowhere else to go. Yeah, so gonna be
close by, you know. Once people start moving around for the day,
I'll check on everybody, so I'll be right there. Yeah, Tamir I
already went and kind of had his moment, So I think he's just he's
done for the night. He needs to rest. I imagine you'll sit on
the same wall as maybe even in this room. It's gonna be the only
like private space you're gonna have it. Anyways, But Alia does not return,
as all three of you are probably woke up by the sound of this
helmet making this noise. Vital is not stable. How do how do we
fix that? I don't know. Hang on the moment. Let me let
me take a look at this. Is there anything that I can do to
understand. Let's see. We can get a medical check or I'll take a
technology check to see if it's an issue with a tech Okay, let's do
I don't have metacourage. Is not there? No, No, you would
have been back. This is the morning. Okay, this is morning.
Yeah, I would have woken you up as well. Cool googol. If
he's there, I'll let I'll let no continue his Yeah, go for it.
So no, get Let's get the tech roll to see if it's actually
functioning. Okay, text gott on one. Uh. Okay, from what
you can tell, this thing is functioning just fine. This has nothing to
do with the technology and everything to do with her body. Okay, tickled,
very tickled with with the technology. Then Tamir is gonna pull out his
tools and start to actually know what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna go
ahead and use my uh uh my ability. I'm gonna gearhead this. I
love caring with stuff. Okay, I'm gonna fix it. Go and try
to fix it, all right, Well, fix it? Uh. From
what you can tell, there's not a whole lot wrong with the technology,
but you can start like be booping through the menus, like the screens on
this little like screen on the side of this helmet. Why don't we get
did you want to make a medicur to check Mike? Uh? Yeah.
As soon as that that like era went off and Tamir started sucking around with
it, he would also get up and like, uh kind of like that
that when when you have like the tech person is over your shoulder and like
just get out of the way. He kind of like bumps into mirror a
little bit and like is actually checking her physical self. Okay, so space,
Like I would you stop playing with the magic helmet. The magic helmet
isn't working. Let me just fix it. It's her vital it's not her
magic. As you reboop the magic helmet and you're like and you're gonna and
you hit a button. You see that the timer that said seven days boops
down to four days. You did, in fact make it a shorter process.
Let's get that metacurgy check. But her vinyls still are not correct.
One success from Alik from Anica. A single success from Alik the leak you're
like trying to you did put this helmet on, you did set it up
for Pete's sake, So you're trying to like go through it and backtrack.
From what you can tell, she's been under this helmet now for two days
without any kind of food or water. She needs a drip. Her body
need sustenance even though it's under the helmet and she's not in the medical lab
anymore. And when you know, when Tamir was under oh Lamara did this,
so like she just knew that that person needed to go on a drip.
But she's the doctor. When the doctor's undered, nobody really thinks about
that. So she's gonna probably need to go on some kind of nutrients drip
to keep her from wasting away over the next four days. Tell. Yeah,
so you remember how, like a few months ago, thousands of credit
it's worth of medical supplies kept randomly showing up at the ship. Yeah?
Great, can we work out a deal where we distribute some of those around
here as long as someone maintains an iv on Lamara while we're rescue and Seul.
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure that if we told Julis so she
get us medical supplies, she would make sure that someone took care of her.
You know, I bet we wouldn't even need to bargain that. I'm
sure that she just you know, hook her up. Well, I kind
of figured we have a bunch of them on the ship, and also we're
probably gonna die in Kula, so it I'd rather give him out anyway,
right, Yeah, Yeah, that's that's absolutely fair, and I agree with
you. Yeah, so first before we go back to the ship at all,
we need to get sewel. But I bet Melissa probably has enough supplies
here that one of the nurses could probably hook her up at least until we
get back, and then we can try to make it to the The curtain
pulls back and says, did somebody say my name? Ah? Yeah,
so apparently Lamar's supposed to be on an ivy. You we are low on
supplies. We believe we don't have anything like that. We do have some
supplies in the ship. Oh. She kind of stops, you see,
like the flicker of her eyes such as she's sinking through. Yeah, like,
how to get this off? And she says, if you're offering,
then we'll recover the supplies. Okay, if if you can recover the supplies
from the ship, you can take almost all of the medical supplies, not
all of them, because who knows if we'll need them, but you can
have all this access docked here. Yeah, I did my usual parking job.
She kind of leans out of the door and puts her fingers in her
mouth and lets out one of those really loud whistles. You can hear.
People are starting to kind of move and the smell of food is starlight.
She turns around looks at you, like, what a horrible name for a
ship we work. I see they were under stress. Do you hear the
pattern of sandals? As a boy runs up and he's kind of panting,
and she says, go give word to Tony. We're going to need to
recover some things from the ship they're holding, and he kind of nods,
bright eyed, and you see him like patter off and she's like, we'll
make contact and try not to raid you for everything. And she's like,
I'll make sure that Lamar's taken care of. Okay. The two soldiers that
I'm sending with you are waiting, and I sugguess you get a move on
before whoever's holding them at the end of gunpoint wakes up from their ships.
Yeah, that's the plan, and that look around, does anybody need anything?
I'm good, Okay, I'm gonna go finda. I'm gonna go find
Alia. She's at the prison cell. Great, uh yeah, Jelyissa kind
of and leaves with you and she goes I'll show you where it's at.
The hustle and bustle of the sanctuary is definitely active in moving. People have
rolled up their bedrolls for the night and things like that. Some people are
making morning offering, taking morning prayer. But she leaves you kind of across
the way down this much dingier hallway and you can see on the other side
of a blue like energy wall is is a mirror chained up. She looks
to be pretty unconscious or sleeping. Her head's like down, you know what
I mean, And she kind of sits on the floor and outside at your
feet remains Alia. It's just like bundled up and like her heads leaning against
the wall. Like you see her like like falling asleep and then waking up,
and then falling asleep and then waking up, like slowly nodding off eventually
clearly not heeding the advice that Molli did. It's hey, it's time to
go. We gotta go get school. Oh, I'll be right there.
Okay, please don't take too long. I know that you're concerned. But
she'll be here when we get back. Suel might not be if we take
too long. Yeah. Yeah, He kind of takes one more look in
the cell. Do I notice any movement at all? No? Not necessarily
no, nothing, nothing has has changed. Foods beginning to be passed out
right, uh and a a woman comes up and hands a tray of whatever
has been cooked, and you see Julyssa go over. She has a bracelet
on, and as she gets close, the field like opens up around it,
and she like slides the plate in. As she removes her hand,
it steals back up. It's like negative energy, and you know, she's
like slides it over before she leaves her hand, so it makes it to
her closer, and she looks up at Alia. She actually looks up at
Tal too, and looks kind of proud. I don't know if Tal picks
up on it, but the way towel handle she proves. And she puts
a hand on Alia's shoulder and she says, I can tell you she'll be
here when you get back. That much I can promise I who knows.
Maybe you can get her to tell us what we need. I can certainly
try. It's a bit of a pig head, a lot of me,
even the nicer one of all of them. I can tell you. She
showed us how to take a beating. If you see out of the corner
of your eye, Tale makes uh a well, tries to tries to make
it so alli you can see, but not julyssa kind of like a h
could I have perhaps some some something to drink? Or oh? Yes,
she says, Tea's been prepared. You know what, I'd say, probably
tal probably brought her a cup. Oh cute child, just discover we depart
in five minutes. Well you depart in five minutes. Uh, good luck,
and bring the priest back please alive? Alive? Yeah, that she
kind of trying. It makes a clarification. And she says, you're doing
great. And she puts a very loving hand on your shoulder, and she
puts a similar one raised the other hand and puts it on Alia's and she
says, if it means anything, I didn't know it was your sister.
She doesn't go about that advertising it. I can see why. And she
leaves the two of you and departs and you're able to kind of join the
rest of the party. You can see there are two well dressed soldiers,
we'll call them soldiers. They have kind of piece mailed stuff together from probably
whatever they've taken off the bodies of judicators and other soldiers sent from Homogeny.
They each have a carbine rifle in their hand and seem to be well prepared,
you know, knifeit their side. They are. This is what they
do. They're grown. They are not children, for the record. Two
grown men, and they say very little. The one of those a bit
older and kind of gruff. You can see he's got a large scar on
his face. The other kid looks a bit bright eyed, but you can
tell that he's well. He's very fit and kind of handsome and is probably
fresh, but not not suited for the job. I think it's probably safe
to say that Jelyssa gave us the access to the maps of the ventilation systems,
and talented here probably spent a good portion of the night studying those to
try to figure out like the best way in or out, or like other
ways that we could branch off if something was blocked or something like that.
To try to get to the location that school was at. Okay, you
could also activate our group ability, can't we so we can either avoid one
conflict or we can make it there in half the time. I would say
we would try to avoid one conflict. I'd rather try to try to avoid
getting screwed up getting there and take our time to get there safely. Safely,
so the plan is to take the ventilation systems, so all of you
suit up how you're probably running this operation. So you'll take lead to mirror
and Malik probably loaded these maps up or digitize them in some way, no
doubt, and the two soldiers take up the rear, flanking all of you.
As you pass through these massive steeled tubes, sometimes you'll take a great
down. Occasionally you'll walk across a steamy area and you can't even see the
bottom. I will not because of your group talent. Have you roll for
your travel in this regard. It's a well thought out plan and you got
the things that you needed to get there safely. But on the occasion when
you pass through a tighter tunnel that may surface near one of the streets or
one of the public places, you get that scene in that sight again.
Some areas are completely abandoned, caution taped off, barricaded up. You can
see the bodies have been cleared, so it's almost eerier because there's nothing there.
You can see areas that have been quarantined that have mass amounts of soldiers
standing outside of it, where you can't get in to that area at all.
You don't know if they're keeping people safe or they're keeping something else locked
in. And eventually you come upon a quarantined area you actually pass over for
two guards. It leads down a couple of hallways that probably were residential,
and you get to the top of the ventilation shaft right the piece that caps
it that looks down into this medical facility. But this section of the ship
seems to be heavily damaged. You can smell the leftover electrical smoke. You
can see that there was already combat here, and the lights are flickering,
the yellow caution light runners are up. You have in fact avoided the conflict
with the guards at the front, and you can see there are four more
guards outside of the medical facility that have like the one path out for them.
They have like barricaded up and they're standing there just pinning sool who you
now see two soldiers and a wounded man who is in kind of like rags.
Is the best way I can put it. Just layers and layers of
clothes, clearly trying to hide his face, and he has pressure on a
wound in his gut. You don't know how long he's been bleeding. He
looks pale. Yeah, you've avoided that conflict? Is there? I think
I know the answer of this question. Is there a way to get into
the medical bay through the ventilation shaft? There is a like two and a
half by two and a half, right, it's like a circular plug that
sits into the ceiling that is like bolted in from this side, not the
underside, which is why Sewell was not able to get out. Right,
it's like capped down. That's for security. So you could. One of
you probably has the tools to like remove it if you wanted to advanced tools.
Yeah, so you could. You and to me are kind of shimmy
past one another end this tight tunnel to mirror, go ahead and just roll
a I guess a technician or technology check question before I forgot about I almost
forgot about this. Can you ask hear me. Okay, I was going
to say, uh, I forgot that I had the blessing, the prophetic
What was it again? Yes, propetic blessings which you can use what today?
Right? Yes, so I would assume that before we headed out or
sometime around then, I kind of I use this. Okay, does it
have a time? How long it takes you toes? Let's see, you
have been chosen and trained by Blah blah blah once per day as a slow
action. Yeah, so it's just it only takes you a slow action which
is like ten or five teen seconds if you want to try to have one.
So you are kind of in the middle of all of them, and
you can see talent of her switch places how or Tamir bins down success.
You begin to like these these bolts off of this very rusty, very old
uh led to this this voul alia. Do you want to use your prophetic
blessing? Let me one second? What was is there a It'll be a
mystic ability It'll be a mystic ability check. It'll take you just about fifteen
seconds basically closing your eyes and trying to push a prophite like a prophetic vision.
Got it? And now I'm just trying to see that if this,
if I use this, would it continue because it does above and adding the
blessing six blessed sixes to a test, reduce your role with as many dice
as blessed six and supper one point of stressed for each blessed six us runs.
Blessed sixes disappear after twenty four hours. How many do you get for
your pool? Because I'm gonna go and have you you roll it now and
then bank the sixes. Basically, oh, probably your mystic ability check.
Yeah, test empathy, okay, so there you go, test your empathy.
So you take a moment, as you know, this is when it
starts. You hear that last screw come out as tameror pulls the lid off,
and allia, uh, you say a prayer, you hold your breath,
and in that moment you're gonna try to build up a little bit of
a blessing to use ongoing. So roll those right, have straight empathy?
Okay, So you get two sixes, so bank two sixes to use a
like to add to another role in the future. Right in the future,
and you do. You've you've made maybe you've made yourself feel better, but
you feel you feel the presence of the Lady of Tears here, both because
this is a place of great death and because she has blessed you in this
moment to get these people out. As Tamir, you move the grate and
the camera pans down to the top of somebody that we have not seen in
a very, very, very long time. The camera cuts into this medical
facility. It smells of bo and a manned dying. You have been trapped
in here. It is an air type facility. It's a medical facility,
and this area has had the air turned off. You can tell the power
is basically on a backup generator here. You've had no food and only what
little water you've had on you when you left for this mission. The plan
was not to have many nights out, and the priests that you were carrying
back has been shot in the last combat that you had, which was about
twenty four hours ago. Sool, tell us what does soul look like after
about six months, nine months apart from the crew training in this rebellion.
Well, this boy be looking a little rough. His hair is a little
messy, messy, and he's kind of a and a lot of his armor
and the gear, but more so now wearing kind of rags. A lot
of the rags are bounded and like they seem to be hiding a lot of
his arm, like up to his fingers all like bounded up, and you
can see bandages kind of like up to his neck. He has an eye
patch because the eye patch, and he's just kind of like looking a little
beat up now. Prior he looked a little, you know, scrawny,
but now he looks a little bit more filled up, like kind of like
you know, ready to fight. Uh, and you know, you he
kind of hides something. There's like a glitter glitter of hilts on his hip
and like he has a lot of additional compartments that just seem to be bulking
underneath a lot of the bandages. Well, Paul, I have to ask,
does he have the cool hero scary? He's not that cool, he's
not. But he he's looking a little rough. You know, he's looking
a little and he seems kind of beat up to like he's you can see
blood kind of soaking through his bandages and he's kind of like holding his like
it looks like his like shoulder isn't fully dislocated, but it's like on the
verge. Yeah, he's hurts. He's kind of like in the corner,
just like fuck fun and you're kind of yeah, you're like whispering to yourself.
This is getting worse. This priest is not going to make it another
day without proper medical attention. And this medical facility has been looted because this
whole floor was basically a riot zone about three months ago. You would know
that very well, sool, because you've got to you're trying to get as
many people out of this area as possible. Uh do you hear this?
Yeah, the the vent or or the pipe or whatever that that t mirror
opened up? Does that actually open up near a suol right on top of
his head? Great? Yeah, uh wait, I'm next to it.
You don't get to do anything, Mike, I'm right there. I was
gonna give Sul a chance making observation checking for this yo. Yo. This
is the first roll in like in two years. All right, Yeah,
roll that observation. So I fail, suck, that's okay, So you
don't. Yeah, welcome back. You now remember you can choose to or
to reroll by giving me a darkness point. Yeah fucking why not? All
right? Cool? Love. It doesn't matter. No, it doesn't matter.
You do not hear the sound of the vent being like you're hungry,
You're you're extremely uh thirsty, Right, you're getting to the point of like
actually starving and thirsting to death. Your soldiers. What's left of them?
You've lost four the two that's left of them, Uh, are a bit
disheartened. I guess you could say they've given up pretty much all hope,
but you don't hear it. Yeah, what is the positioning of this room
that we're in, Like where are the entry points and exit points? So
there's a single entry This is kind of like a first aid station. So
the wall in front of you is bulletproof glass. You can tell it's bulletproof
because they fired into it a hell a lot and not been able to break
through it. So there's a large glass and next to it would be a
hydraulic door that you have basically deactivated the hydraulics on with the power and all
of that, so it's locked down. Okay. In here is a single
medical bed and like cabinets and such that would have basic medical supplies. Like
I said, this is like a first aid stand. This is not med
bay. This is a small first aid stand in the middle of a residential
district. Okay, but it was the only place you could find that they
couldn't get into, and so far they've not been able to get into it.
But they have pigeonholed you here. And the vent that was above your
head. Imagine you looked for other ways out. The vent that was above
your head has been drilled in from the opposite side, so they it's locked
in. There was no way for you to get it free. Right.
Uh So not being observant. Uh if anybody else was observant in that room,
they'd see just like red hair fall down just just from the vent and
as Tal puts her head down, just like at at level so that it's
not in the room, but so that the the anybody who's looking can see
here and be like, so hey, so you definitely hear that soul,
but you don't see anything. I do one question what I'm able? Am
I able to? She says, Look, Okay, slowly because I'm on
edge, I don't really move, but I slowly go for the hilt on
my word, don't don't you cut me. I'm here to rescue you.
And like that kind of perks a little voice. Yeah, exactly, like
I know that voice. Uh. Maybe you peek around and as you look
up, red hair dangles from the ceiling and you see Tal's face probably a
long Scooby Doo style with Tamerr and Maliks and like they're all kind of like
looking down over this vent uh in the ceiling that they have managed to like
free up for you. Yeah, oh shit, I must be dead.
You're no, You're not dead for once. Actually no, this is the
second time we're saving you. But anyways, come on, okay, this
is a rescue mission. You should be used to this. I'm gonna creek
over the top of this. Hello, I'm gonna grab whatever is like near
me, and I'm gonna throw at one of my soldiers. Did you get
this? This guy in the head, he's up, hey you are Yeah.
He calls himself tiny. He is not tiny, that's what he is,
like engraved. He's not a tiny man at all. And you get
gung came in the head. He's like he's like what he looks at you?
Oh, and he reaches for his weapon and throw what what calm down?
Are you seeing this? Am I delusional? No? There's a woman
hagging from you want to go back to your safe. Oh you're here to
rescue us. Yeah, you know they didn't put you in here for the
brains. Come on, everybody go. He looks up. He can't fit
through that hole, you know, Tiny, I don't think you're gonna fit
through that hole. Boss, I have to fit. We have to fit.
Uh. You guys didn't bring something to No, we didn't bring the
stuff. Ah. Yeah, I don't think you'll probably fit. Uh.
And the other guy is kind of tall and lean. He'll heel fit real
tight like tiny though, Tiny, Tiny's not gonna ho. How's the priest
though? Does the priest look like they can move? The priest looks like
y'all are going to have to move him. He's a he's older and kind
of frail. He's not very tall. I wouldn't call him a big man
by any sense of the terms. Kind of bearded, but he's he's very
weak. He has You would know that you probably did the first aid on
him. Uh. He took it straight to the gut, which has allowed
him to like bleed out for a few days. You've slowed the bleeding,
but you've not been able to stop it. Okay, the one entry point
that is pinned down yet the door, would that be like, I'm assuming
I ran through that door. I ran passed correct into here, and they've
barricaded your way out and they've been just like pigeonholing you in this spot.
Now, if you came out of here and go right, you know it
goes deeper into the residential area. But that is technically quarantined. Nobody is
supposed to be down there. There's no power, there's no fresh air.
It's a it's and you would know that the riots on this floor left this
place empty with nothing but dead bodies. Gotcha. I look back up at
Tao, hold on, what the fuck are you doing here rescuing again?
Come on, well, I'm not leaving Tiny. I want to be rescued.
Hot up. I know I'm not leaving Tiny. They didn't tell me
that you wouldn't fit the vents. What I can fit. I can do
it. I can do it. I look up based off of my perspective,
do I think he can do it? That's someone who is very big
and has had to crawl through tiny spaces probably in her life, unless somehow
he doesn't have shoulders. I don't think he's going to fit. I can
cut the shoulders off, tiny, I eat my shoulders all right, now
you're being picky. Okay, can't we just go through the front door like
we got reinforcements, right, we can just we can just kill them.
Now. We don't know who's on the other side of the front door.
Yeah, we do. There are four soldiers captain any points, and you
can through the like cracked bulletproof glass, you can see there are four soldiers
that are so tired of waiting on y'all to come out, and they're just
like sitting there at this barricade on this hallway. We're not we're not really
reinforcements. It's a it's a space pilot, two nerds, and a priest.
So it's like a walking joke. It's not gonna nice to see too,
Malik. Anybody I don't have a gun? I do. I keep
giving rescue mission and they don't have a gun. I've given you. I
can get you out through the vents. But it's not our fault. You're
too big. Where is the gun? Come on? I'm just like I'm
just bouncing back and forth like that's how Lamark got the grenade. Why don't
we make a plan to get me out? Yeah, Malik, Yeah,
can you do you do you have your your thing on you? Yes?
I have my science on me? What what what do you need? Captain?
That was me? Talo? No, tal has towing technology. She
knows what she's talking about. Not remembering words, Hey, I got you.
I know what you was saying. It's canon. Now tell forgotten a
stressful environment when we tell, when starts asking, are there any vehicles nearby
that looks like they're functional? Oh? No, most of this area looks
empty. Things that you could do you might be able to swing with a
look power would be like opening and closing doors. This is a residential area.
There are a lot of doors. In fact, Malik, this is
this is the block you lived on. Yeah. Uh, So continuing on
tells us, well, do you think you can hack their comms and put
out a fake call down the block? Because if we could just get them
to leave, or at least one of them to leave, then it gives
us a little better robs. They also look fucking exhausted, so huh maybe
uh And Malik has the Malik look, and uh he will he will pull
out his his his tabula and uh dot, I assume there's actually is there.
I don't want to assume we're in a fucking war zone. Is there
is there like Wi Fi or what? Is there? Is there a signal
around here that Malik can access? There is there is a light radio signal
you drop, You're gonna have to drop into the medical chamber. There would
be a HUD there, but it's gonna be on like low power mode,
right because this whole area is probably one running off of a single backup generator.
So you can maybe do some rerouting of some power or something like that.
Why don't you roll a data gin You have to drop in, like
I said, into the medical chamber. But well, you see Malik drop
down the usual data pad in hand. Wow, but you it's been a
while. Tiny goes, Wait a second, I know you, I know
they bust their famous God do you know who this is? Up Ty,
I'm about to leave you if you don't shut up. I'm so sorry.
This is cool, defiance ship. One of the easiest ways is probably just
pop out his shoulder. And I've done it before. I've had to do
it before. Up and sees Alia for the first time. This beautiful big
woman hello, who has suggested for him to pop his shoulder out so he
can get his body through this. He's never been more smitten than his life.
Ty looks up at you and he says, you're the priestess Alia,
and he kind of he lets out a big breath. He's like, I
I dislocate my arm for you for to get through the hole. To do
to get Yeah, I'm looking back. It's the belly. What the belly
won't fit? He said, Malik, let's get your data general? Great?
Uh dot? Is this is this like old tech? Or can I
hook my tablet up to this thing? You can hook your tablet too.
It's not old tech. It's just not functioning at full speed. It's everything
here is just a little disheveled, like you might walk into an area.
Is how about a quit dot? How about a quit sad? Well,
everything in the third horizon balances itself out, so no problem. You plak
in? What is your goal? H Malik looks around h and he says,
everyone take out. If you have a radio, take it taken out.
Taken out, and then he adjusts to the frequency because he's not sure
what frequency they're on. Uh so he goes with like a wide band,
uh and just fucking cranks noise. Uh. So anyone that has an earpiece
on will just get that like like it's the nineties and they were walged onto
aoil. Well, you all take your earpieces out and you hear it from
outside this dense bulletproof glass of this medical chamber or this first aid stand.
As they all like ah and you hear them, they're gonna be deaf for
probably a while, and they're heavily distracted at the moment they pull their earpieces
out, one of them like stops on it and they're like oh and kind
of holding their ears. Oh, you can shoot them if you want.
Yeah. When when they do that, I'm like, this is our As
you go towards the doorway, we have so many darkness point no dot,
We have so many so why are you not a nice way ridically succeeded.
This whole area is being run off a single generator, which means you re
routed power to do this, to tap into every radio in the area.
You see the power O caution lights go dim bare minimal yellow along the runners.
As how you reach for the door, there is now no lights and
often the distance somewhere you hear I hate this. You great. I look
over to into the direction of my leak and like, great, now we're
in the dark. I turn on my eye. You were imprisoned for like
shit. And then before I just want to run, I turn on my
eye and crack one of the glow lights. Your eye lights up red and
it kind of beams across the front window. Do you open the door?
You just crack the green I cracked the green light and I hand it to
Alia al ya, you you are the sole source of light. Now who
has come out of the Has everybody come out of the pipe? Somebody was
like, hell, no, I haven't, But I was. I was
trying to get them to move because this is the time to go up,
okay, And I was thinking that if we have it memorized that, like
if they needed to drop down from the top on the outside already, you
could definitely kick that. Yeah, definitely think you do know there is a
way to drop down on top of them and the two that are like outside
the door of this residential hallway. Great kid, let's I mean, yeah,
let's do it. The signal is given from the captain to mirror pulls
out his shock stick, because that's the weapon that he has. Nice it
lights up a little bit in the ark. You get a little bit like
that five foot of dim light or whatever. And he just drops down.
I mean he's a big boy. He's six foot five and probably two eighty.
He's he's gonna drop, yeah, right behind him. The first time,
I was going to just say no. Time you see Aliya pull out
her door sword, oh Oliol pulls out a weapon, I said up a
pacifist against people and never said anything about things. When you pull out the
sword, there's a small eek from tiny uh and he can't handle it.
He cannot handle it, and and and he says, don't don't worry,
Princess Alia, I'll protect you. So I want to take this quick moment,
yes, to pick this awesome like kick as moment where everyone's like pulling
out weapons. Well, he's dropped, I mean, like to me or
fuck me. We were dropped down, right, And the Suel pulls out
his mercury blade and his mercury dagger on the other hand and turns them both
on. And then I look over to tal and I go captain. And
then I just wait I'm on the other side of the door. I dropped
down outside talent on the other side of the door. Okay, okay.
We stayed in the event, and then when all the ringings started, we
went over to the other side and dropped Got you, got you? Okay.
Yeah, Well, I'm gonna pull out my swords and just get ready
to run towards wherever they are. We're on. Yeah, we're on the
other side of the door. Now, the tall lanky guys tends to the
priest. Uh. He doesn't say a whole lot he you know that,
that's pretty usual for him. He's gonna try. He's a rather tall,
strong guy, so he's gonna try to get the priest into the vents staff
for you all, we're gonna go into combat. But as the two of
you drop down outside of the door into the hallway, it is so dark.
All the light there is is a green glow and this dura sword and
this electric stick, and from the bits of shadows that you can see,
you hear the screams of these men, the four of them, as the
shadows are ripping them to pieces. They are being slaughtered. Well, we
get out there and hear the screams. Malik hits his tablet and holds it
up in the light glowing flash light tight And as the flashlight app comes on
and it casts actually more shadow dark, he turns on his slashlight app.
Yeah, his space splashlight app. He Uh, it casts kind of a
wider cone of light, dim but wider, and you can see creatures.
Actually, I'm gonna have everybody has seen them before, but Alia, Alia,
you see the becore. They're made of darkness and shadow. Their mouths
elongated with these kind of wispy black teeth, and their fingers reach out in
the ends and they are just slicing these men to shreds. They seem to
be made of the darkness and shadow itself. When the flashlight goes on,
I was gonna ask, sorry, good question. Would Alia not know these
about these things in her travels with Tuli? Have never seen this before?
This is this is this is the darkest kind of darkness in the in the
horizon. You've never seen anything. In fact, you're gonna have to make
a stress roll. Oh, I'm sorry, ter terror role and this is
well you can make it after you you have to pass your terror check.
Uh, I'm going you are going to suffer. Okay, great, So
I'm going to have you make this check. It is an empathy Are these
the book or are these are the dark bound? Because not all of us
have seen the dark bounds? Right, Tal hasn't either. That's right because
how you were on the ship. So two also has to make the terror
check. You're right these are the dark bound because Tal state on the ship.
Let's everybody tell and Alia need to make an empathy test. Yep,
You're going to take two points mental stress. If you do not pass,
that's a you can't spend darkness on this. This is a terror check.
This is to check yourself. So on each six on the roll negates one
point of the stress. To tell you men shoudigate both points of the stress,
because you got two sixes. Each extra six may be spent to calm
the other party protecting them, but we didn't get any extra suit. Neither
of you run. But for the first time you both witness something truly horrific.
This is not people shooting people. These are not bodies floating through space.
This is the essence of the void manifest. You don't know how they
are what they are. Tal. You remember trying to kind of explain it
to you over the radio, and now you get to see it with your
own eyes. But Alia, you've never seen anything like this. Just rip
through these men and as that little beam of light from the flashlight app things
on and cast just enough light to take away some of the shadows the dark
bound, crank their heads and look at all of you from across the other
side of this barrier. They're roughly twenty feet or so away, like down
the hallway, on the other side of these blockades, and we will go
into combat. You did, in fact miss the combat with the soldiers.
How about we got combat with these people? Quick question? Since I took
two terror points worth of damage, how do I what do I do that?
You should have a stress track on your It's mind points right below your
hip points. Okay, Kip, So it is the exes. Does that
mean that it's used up or to the excess? Represent how many I have?
Whatever you want to do? Yeah, Usually I'm The way I keep
track is I mark how many I have, and then I deduct from this.
I have to remember how many you have for that, So if you
look it should it should say mind points with plus empathy so that's your total,
and once that's down to zero, you you're unconscious by no means breaks
you. You you've seen some ship, but you've never seen anything like this.
Tw you very quickly swallow your fear. You do not have time for
that. You are on a mission. Alia. There's a moment of panic
and pause from you. If you would now like to make a culture check
as you swallow your terror, how many points again to two? You can
make that culture check really quick before we roll for initiative. I think I
think there's a moment where Allia kind of closes her eyes and then evokes the
Lady of the Tears, just like her name to you have two D six
Remember this two sixes not for the terror check or a culture if I wanted
to culture, yeah, I need to use it before or uh no,
you can use it after because it basically bumps up or negates your one.
So let's make your culture check. And that is that between what Julyssa reminded
you all of which was to stay in the light. There are always tales
of darker things than humans, always, especially when you deal in mystical things
that revolve around light and dark. You yourself have never seen these creatures,
but you have read it out them. When you're able to shake the terror
away, you realize these are creatures on this dark bound. They are often
found in places of mass graves, forgotten ships lost to space, where bodies
are not cared for, are not helped to pass over. They permeate from
these bodies and bring back the darkness, incarnate, and they manifest a physical
form. They are not good. They are not good. Why in any
way remember what like any ways to defeat them or keep them up or any
form of light helps. Light really really helps a lot with them. They
are limited, right, They're not terribly smart. Creatures are not gonna wield
weapons, but you're gonna want to stay away from their claws. Don't get
scratched. I feel like that's a given. Consider yeah, considering what very
logical, But you realize they don't consume the bodies, They don't eat them.
They're not zombies. It seems that they're just wanting to suffocate life.
But in terms of how to defeat them, the best thing that you can
that you would know from your readings is that they are slight sensitive because they
are born of the darkness in a space where there is no light. Okay,
okay. I turned to Malik, like, is that any way we
can bring more light to this space? No? Mmm, I just used
all the power to make that air thing happen. I'm not a miracle worker,
aren't you. I what just bring light from nothing? Just I don't
know, use your wizard powers? Just can we just get out of here?
I look over. I don't like look over like you can make a
miracle work, he says. I bet she can do anything. Tiny,
I swear to god. Uh. You can see at this point, the
final foot of the tall gentleman is in the the vin chefs and he's managed
to get the priest up there at what costs? You do not know.
Let's roll for initiative. For initiative. In this game, everybody rolls a
single D six. I just love the image of Suel's team being fucking anime.
You have the one tall, skinny guy, you get the big chunk
and meat boy, and then the assassin with nine swords. I'm literally one
piece right now. Ye, Tiny's the moose guy. Yeah, and then
you got uh, I forgot it, actually loofy and I'm I'm the guy
with the swords. Where's Wally when we need him? Two? Three?
Let me get Okay, so we got a bunch of five. So here's
how this works for all of you with fives. You can choose your initiative
order, or you can choose to raise or lower that initiative order. There
are a couple ways to do this. This is not a surprise attack.
They see you coming, so you can't do it that way. If you
have the combat veteran skill or talent, it will allow you to go up
when an initiative, you can on this turn maneuver into a better position,
moving your initiative up next turn. And there are certain weapons, but I
don't think any of you have them. Or you can choose to try to
make a skill test and if you roll incredibly well with a critical, it
will up your initiative score. So if you think you have a skill that
you would like to roll, you think you could go very well, you
could potentially add to it. Lowering initiative basically takes your action to do something
and you lower it for the next round. So if not, y'all can
just decide who goes where and in what order. For all of our fives.
Would my premonition, talent come in handy in any way here, I
help you take the movement. Oh, that's not not for the sake of
this, unless you wanted to make it like you could make an observation check
and then add those sixes to that check to try to make it critical.
Okay, if you wanted to go that route, then yes, you could
move up the initiative score and you would get to go before everybody else.
I know, I think Alia is not the type that would necessarily be just
bank bank those sixes. So Tal, I imagine you are set and prepped
and ready to go. Do we want Tal to go first? Fives?
Yeah? I mean CaAl is essentially uh, just trying to cover so everybody
else can run because from from what the rest of the group told her,
fighting these things isn't really there's no point to it because they're just going to
keep going. Yeah, it's difficult, that's for fure. Yeah, so
Tal, yell's everybody run. Uh, Now you're gonna have to run through
them unless you're going to go back into the darkness. Tal is going to
hold ground to make sure her crew gets out. I'm going to hold my
hold my ground. I am the last person in in the line. Uh,
just kind of trying to make sure that everybody's everybody's getting out, and
I'm going to uh use any of my actions to just fire at the book
or two or yeah, at the at the book or to you have three
action points. You can take a slow action with three of them that allows
you to do firing at full auto, which does do more or you could
choose to do an aimed shot and try to do more damage that way.
Yeah. So yeah, I'm going to be using I guess the accelerator pistol
because they're a little bit further along right now, and I'm going to fire
an aimed shot at whichever one gets closer or faster. Okay, great,
Sorry, I'm putting a little map together here for all of you so that
you can better understand what's going down in this. Okay, let me move
you over so you also have a good idea what's going on. Quickie map
here. So this is i'mna free hand it. This is the barricade that
you've got that they are holding. They're like they were holding. I should
say, there are two barricades here and here on the far west end of
the hallway. That is your exit. This is where the book, sorry,
the creatures are. They're down here at this end. The other end
continues into more residential that way, well done. This is the medical facility
here you can see like a little bet or whatever. So that is,
and there are other rooms right there. There's another room actually here, and
there'll be more rooms on the way down. They're all residential. In the
door seemed to be locked and boarded. So you're going out this way past
the creatures. Oh great, okay, so we do want to go that
way rights, unless you're going to go into the darkness that is the residential
area, which you're assuming is where these creatures came from. Yeah, no,
okay, so yeah, then actually I'm going to have to be clearing
the path. I'm going to be clearing the path, and yeah, I'll
take an aim shot at the one on the left. Great, I have
to pull my thing back up because it sucks that you can't have your character
sheet and see the whole map at the same time. I just thought the
same thing. I had to close my sheets to drop the map. Okay,
sark bound, So let's get the shot so that I and if you're
doing an aimed shot. You will get bonuses to this. Yeah, so
I have plus one and then the aimed shot is also back to the other
thing. I had all my combat actions open and then I had to take
your time to aim carefully. You get to add a plus two to the
attack role, so add a plus two in the modifier for that, along
with the one for your eye. Yeah, and then let's go come on
please Yeah, okay, so roll for hole you to You get to roll
for like several critical h damage things. They aren't wearing any armor, so
they don't get to roll for any uh. They take all the damage that
you put on them. So so many things here. You're gonna do the
critical damage amount, not the regular damage, but the KRIT damage. What
is in your krip box. Krit box is only one that's okay vulcan,
so so the KRIT box does not add damage. So the KRIT box is
the number of sixes you need in addition to the original success. So if
you need one for every one success beyond the first one, you get to
roll on the crit table, meaning you get to roll four times on the
quit table on the KRIT table. So yeah, this is badass. So
the fire the shot goes off and it clears through this creature. What does
the damage of the weapon actually do? I? Uh damage to Okay?
So, oh, I was supposed to have a plus one on that hold
one another one was getting get six Now that's fine, okay, So you
get the two off. You see part of this shadow like dissipate from its
form and go off into the darkness of the corner. You are going to
roll on the krit table. I believe I actually have the krit table.
I hope I do. If not, I have it pulled up dot.
If you I don't have rolls two D six two D six is four times
okay, so roll, let's roll in one by one roll two D six.
Uh so five fifty five is fifty five severed artery. Uh. They
will they will die in two D six minutes. Uh they are unconscious and
two D six hours later. Uh and they uh and they die twody six
hours later. Uh and they have a minus one to dexterity. Oh okay,
So I'm gonna go ahead and put their minus one in for their decks.
Go ahead and roll again. I'm gonna give them they don't technically have
already, so I'm giving them extra damage for bleeding. Thirty two is a
broken arm. They are stunned for one turn and have a minus three two
ranged and melee combat. Look, okay, they are stunning. I'm excited.
This is making up for that one shot. Okay, yeah, go
ahead, give us another one, so I'm prefra for that minus three on
the twenty four is teeth knocked out, stunned for one turn, and minus
two to manipulation. So I'm gonna have them both be stunned. He sees
the one guy take it to the head, this one shadowy figure and the
other one like oh, turns and chuck, so I can be insured like
that they will they will lose their turn this round, y'all us we go
one more next sixty five sixty five it dies. So there are three death
criticals and they all have very cool descriptions. Uh. This one is called
pierced heart. Your heart beats one final time, create a new PC.
Wowser. Okay, so uh the shot rings out and it pierces right through
this creature's head. The last time you fought them, you remember having to
really chunk away at them. But for whatever reason, Taal's shot was dead
and it was true and the whole thing just dissipates. It shocks the other
one so much it will still lose its turn at one of them disappearing.
There is now an opening to the like left hand side of the hallway to
start the escape if you want to go on foot. That brings us around
to Alia or Malik, who would like to go next. Uhlik just stands
there for a minute as fucking it's like a fucking Wild West gunslinger. His
mouth drops for a second as he like holds the tablet over his head like
he's a millenniul and a concert. Uh. He just like takes a couple
of steps forward in shock and then like realizes that like all like all the
sound rushes back in and he's like, oh fuck, and it just starts
running towards the tunnel. Your full all your actions to move for your yeah,
yeah yeah, as as the sound comes in you you can't hear tal
get the fuck move on, and you see the light, You see a
leak tearing ass data pad's still in the air as you are in fact going
to pass this creature. And you get to the end of the hallway where
there is a door. Uh that door is locked from the other side of
the leak. It has two guards on the other side of it. Remember
you passed them, but you didn't have to find m uh. He just
knocks on the door. These two guys turn and look through this like sliver
of glass on this this this sliding hydraulic door, and they they now will
enter combat, but they will do it next turn as a panic to like
maybe open the door or do something. Wowser oliar. Yeah. I think
also in a bit of a shock at first, and kind of just like
looks at the captain looks at the thing and then runs and you're saying that
how many how many are left now? Just the one and then two soldiers
on the other side of that door, gotcha and this one that's there.
What's the status is? It's stunned, right, is what we said.
Yeah, it's stunned that tal took his friend out in one shot. Okay,
uh, I'd like to take advantage of that. Is there an advantage
to when they're stunned of any sort? Yeah, you'll uh they I mean
they don't have any armor anyways, you're able to make an attack if you
would like. Okay, yeah, I think like Alia wants to on the
way out. Take this one out, just at least like knock it down,
or at least ask for create more of a route, basically create kind
of you you're gonna run up to it. You will not make it to
the end of the hallway like past them proper. But you can take a
close combat action which is only two of your action points, and then move
for the partially for the other one. So yeah, you could do that
on this church to go ahead and make a melee combat attack. So okay,
so just roll melee combat strength, melee com melee combat strength roll.
Come on, baby, give me something good. Okay? Nice? Uh
great, they can't roll it? Use can I use my two roles?
Now? If you use both of them, it would make it a four.
So it would be a critical success and you'll, uh, what is
your critical on the weapon you're using? It should say it's a one.
I think you're blessing. Lets you add a D six. You have to
roll them. They kPr already did you roll those back and banked them,
and so they're sitting on two. So we add the two sixes. Now
that would make it four. You'd get three roles on the critical success table.
Okay, I think, yeah, I just I just so that Alia
as she's going out, she doesn't want, you know, obviously Captain to
have to deal with this. She's like on her own because you're like,
no, at least something needs to be done about this one. And so
I will what ab I two D sixes? You're going to roll two D
six is three times, So let's start with the first one and Michael read
them off again to us twenty three twenty three broken toes stunned for one turn,
Okay, it's all right, and minus minus two to dicks. Okay,
it did not have that, so minus two it can't. It still
can't do anything, y'all. I just like you took all the go down
and just like smack its toe, yeah, you jab into its toe,
cries out, but it still can't take action. Roll another. That's a
love of their shadow monsters have no physical four fifty four internal bleeding. It
is fatal one point of damage per oh okay, cool, So they take
one point of damage per forced dexterity or melee combat test. Anytime they use
forest dexterity or melee combat they lose one one hit point. Wow, because
they're bleeding. Yeah, that's you, buddy. Bring that blade up from
its toes and slice once more, dissipating more of that smoke. Just before
I forget what is the damage on that weapon? The basic damage two?
Okay, I'm gonna mark both those. Okay. It will continue to bleed
out if it tries to take action each turn one more time, Alia,
and then the last one thirty five gouged eyes, stunned for one turn minus
tude arranged combat and observation. Oh yeah, these poor schades. You slice
up and then jab through its head, kind of like the bullet did from
Tal. It doesn't take it down, but you can see it reaches up
and grabs what would be its face. It's it's kind of claw like hands
covering empty eye sockets as it screams out. Is still stunned to this term,
and it will take damage each and every time moving for it. It
takes action, and you did two points of damage as well on it.
So well done done, I think Alia at that point, as it sees
the creature like cover its eyes and kind of pulled back to turn in the
captain captain now and then just runs, which makes it Tiny's turn and he
goes Wait, Oh yeah, it's dangerous. He's gonna run up and so
I'm pissed and try to hit this. All he has is a vulcan pistol.
That's all this left of his weapons. He's gonna fire twice. No,
he will fire once. He's gonna fire normal shot and yeah, okay,
so he draws his weapon. That's one, and then he's gonna fire
a regular shot. Here we go. This is not his best he failed.
Uh it pews past, but he is hot on your trail. Alia.
Let me add him to the ANITII board tiny, and then next up
put us at the two. Did anybody have a two? Yeah? Okay,
so you see Tiny run for this creature misses the shot entirely, like
straight up storm Trooper style or Colone style. Just pipped you off on a
wall somewhere and it is your term real quick. The my other soldier and
the priest already up the vent right. Yeah, they're gonna try to meet
you on the other side. He was trying to move. He seemed like
he was lanky enough to get in and strong enough to pull the priest,
so he decided it was better for him to stay with the priest. Okay,
and by other side, you mean like the other side of the door,
not like the hallway, but like the complete other side. Like Okay,
he's gonna go all the way outside to the far co Yep, all
right, I'm gonna be like for a quick moment, be like fucking tiny
and then I'm going to run out and I have How far is it from
the room. It's only about, oh about twenty five feet. So they
put the barricade just on the inside of that door. Basically the door hold.
I didn't really put that on the map, but that they let me
add that, so you can see what I'm talking about. It would be
kind of like this, and then there's a door free hand me, thank
you. Uh there's a door here, so uh, y'all are down here
in the hallway. Basically you've you've come. You've come out of this this
door right here by the medical chamber and the dark bounder down here. Okay
do I have or so okay? Could I could? I would I be
able to reach the dark bound Yes for sure, if you if you have
a distance weapon, absolutely, If you want to go on foot, yes,
because you're going to make a melee attack so they don't cost you two
action, Okay, I will do so. I don't know if this helps,
but I have the talent sprinter, which is supposed to make me run
a little bit faster. I think it goes from ten to twelve, so
it's only two additional feet. I don't know if that. Yeah, but
that's that that that is you'll be able to get right up in their grill,
which actually I would say in this case, I'm going to give your
your your one point your fast action back at the end. So go ahead
and take your close combat attacks and make your melee attack with your sword.
Yes, my mercury sword, mercery sword. And how do I do that?
Thin? Can melee combat? Got you? Okay? All right,
come on, we'll start there and see how you do. Oh my god,
y'all are killing it, killing it so hell, maybe it's being back
with the team. All right. What is the critical on your sword?
Two? Okay, so you're gonna get to roll twice on that same chart.
So let's roll two D six for me. But you can do yeah,
perfect, So twenty one mic, twenty one broken nose. It's done
for one turn. Okay, so they're gonna be since they're still done surprise,
surprise, Well, how much famous does the sword do? Three?
Okay, wow, he only gets one time? One roll? Oh right,
because you're right, because he has to take the critical. You're right.
The critical is the one then you subtract to, so you get the
one. So you see it. It's still like can't move as you run
up behind tiny and you give it a nice good slash slash right behind Alia
in the same manner. Do you follow or do you stay in there?
I'm going to stay. I'm going to stay. Yeah, you do another
three points? You watch us more of its shadow like wisp away. It's
beginning to get kind of thin and transparent. Well done, so to mirror
it is your term. Well, everybody else is doing really cool things.
Is just going to reach into his pocket and pulow the glasses okay, because
this is some fucked up shit and I want to see it. Okay,
I will say it. That's like unholstering a weapon. So you slide them
on and you kind of like you tune them in a little bit. Let's
make your mysticability check. I mean, there is a purpose to these glasses,
but you will see some stuff just basically. Okay, one all right.
That means that we don't get any damage once. All right. You
see that they are wearing the skeleton or corpse of something. As you kind
of view through, it's almost like X ray vision, and you can see
the bone structure of what should be a human, but the shadow that makes
it corrupted all around it. Yeah. Uh, so you see that.
You also have these glasses on and as you tune then they go through their
different phases. You now can see through the dark and you see everybody.
You can see through the walls now and you can see them up in the
ventilation shafts. He's almost there with the priest to the other side. You
see the two guards on the other side of the wall who are diligently trying
to get up and unlock it or like open it from a leak, and
you see a third figure. I will play a card, said, I
don't have them. Suel pulled the soldier card. Somebody shows up behind them.
You don't know who it is. No, No, don't do this,
die, don't do this. Die. I'm scared. I'm just gonna
mark off a darkness point for playing another card. A soldier has arrived.
You don't know who, but you see this other figure step up from behind
the two soldiers outside the doors mirror that is that is your turn. I
don't know if you want to warn anybody, but you don't know who it
is because the glasses don't really make out form. You can just see a
figure, another humanoid step in, right, there are three behind the door.
Be careful and that's it. That's all I could do. It takes
the three full points to activate a thing. It's true they lose their urn.
The dark Bound does because they've been stunne so many fucking times by all
of you. So we loop back around into combat. I'm going to move
our two soldiers, oh my god, I cannot spell today to the end.
They'll go with the dark Bound. So you see them step up and
they use their turn to like boop boop and open the door. And one
of them kind of lies it back because there's no power, and the other
one is standing there with his gun. That will be their action. How
it loops back? Oh wait, as the door opens, you see another
figure, a third figure. I would think it's probably Melik and Alia that
see this figure. Okay, no, I didn't Alia, stay in do
combat? I combat in the left and then she like you and then bolted,
so they're hot on your trails. Tinies hot behind you. But it
Melik, you see a figure clad in black and a helmet. You know
all too well, how in the spacefuckery dot this lady, the mortal goddamn
just stands before I hate this show. Um fuck fuck. I think Malik
would have launched into as soon as the door opened. He would have launched
into lying before he saw who Kasha was. And like as the words of
like there's three of them sort of wafts into his ear, he is he
is, uh, just doing doing hella lies. He like the door like
it's pulled open. He's like, oh my god, help, please help.
There's this fighting here and I think there's there's monsters, so I need
safety, please, I'm from the residential area. And he starts to like
claw his way into the room, faking panic, faking panic. I'm gonna
have you make a manipulation check to see how will you think it? Yes?
Please, you know what, let me let me just double check my
talent here to see how much bullshit I can throw it, you dot face
talent man, Yeah, the time to do that. No, they look
so technically, so it says you are very skilled in riling up or engaging
with the masses. Regardless of your rotation, they look up to you.
Whenever you speak before a crowd, you get the following bonuses to command or
manipulation five people. It's a one, So this is not count as a
crowd. So I will just give you a straight up nipu. There is
a crowd around, right, it's more than one person. There's only three
people that I'm cluid r. So the mechanic says five to ten is one
is a plus one. Unfortunately it specifies for this very reason. Yeah,
no doubt, limited success. Okay, what is your goal with yelling this
at them? He's trying to get in. He's trying to look like an
innocent bystander who got caught up in fighting and get him his ass to safety.
So he gets let in the room. The two soldiers. One of
the soldiers kind of lifts his gun in uh Harry, and he kind of
begins to wave you through ten others. Yeah, hold on, how many
how many action points? Is bullshit? Dot a lot? I think it's
uh actimating a missic, tinkering with the gadget and ministering first A I'm gonna
say, because they consider talking free. But you made a role because you
have to do something. Would this would this be a fast action? I
would consider this a normal action. A normal action. Okay, cost you
to to roll? Okay, because that's kind of what a close combat role
is. Yeah, do you take cover anything else? I mean he I
assume in the room is cover from shadow monsters, so he just gets in
the room. Okay, great, okay, alrighty then uh the combat continues
to Malete, I'm sorry to tell to tell, so the sh a lot
has happened. I just want to make sure that I'm yep. So the
most of the crew has made it past the shadow monsters. No, Malik
is the only person. He's the red X that's made her past them.
He's kind of passed through the door. Alia is fast behind. Will make
Alia purple. We'll say, Alia is probably here the dark bound. They're
gonna be this blue X. They're over here with Sewel, Who's gonna be
orange because why the hell not? Uh? And Tiny is about to jump.
Tiny's gonna be green. Tiny is right here, He's about to jump
that barrier to follow Alia. The rest of you. If you haven't closed
distance, which I don't think any of you have, you're going to be
back here by the medical Yeah. So I'm going to start basically pushing to
mir forward since I down next to them, like, come on, let's
go. But I'm I'm gonna start. I don't know. Is corralling my
crew towards the exit? Is that a free action? Make a command check?
We can make it the same thing. It will cost you to action,
but you would be able to rally them faster. Okay. Uh?
And then can I also make a quick shot at that last dark bound since
that's a one action point correct quick shot. I believe there's some negatives you
take, but yes, you absolutely can. Okay, cool negated by your
eyes. So yeah, so I'm going to start with the command check.
And that's just a straight roll right, curve right, just a straight okay,
Yes, I will start with that. Okay, failures, I'm not
giving you any more darkness points. It doesn't it doesn't do anything bad.
You just don't successfully rally the troops. Basically. Yeah, so you differently,
but if I did succeed, then it would give him a plus to
one of his roles. But I didn't, so right, So no,
no real negative, just it doesn't quite succeed. There's a lot going on,
a lot of shots being fired. People now in my league is like
screaming at the end of the hallway. You have no idea what the hell's
going on there? But yeah, it doesn't It doesn't help to merror necessarily.
But you can take that quick shot. It's going to be a negative
too, okay, so that just negates the gun and my eye l It's
okay. It like a blast off. It hits a wall, doesn't do
any damage to the creature, but it also isn't It's not it's turn yet,
so okay. Uh, and I can't start moving, not on this
turn. Okay, yep, all right, that's my turn. Then,
all right we roll around to Alia. Alia. You see this figure I
don't think you've seen before. You don't know Kasha from a Hillabein's there's a
figure you're gonna assume by the tight clothing. She's a woman. She wears
a large helmet kind of like the one that you wore, that covers her
face black obsidian black, and she stands there bearing a sword. Is there
any sort of Intgnia or anything that indicates what faction. Okay, so I
think Ali at that point turns to her, sees the sword, and considers
someone capable. If you have any amount of experience, either you will run
now, or you can go back there and help. We have something that
is monstrous, unnatural. I will show this to all of you. There's
Kasha once more. I don't need to see her again. We don't.
Sorry, remind you, I don't my first time. I'm not saying you've
not seen Kasha Alia. You saw the backside of Kasha when we blew her
fucking ass up with an I d in the to get the chandelier thing,
saw her armor floating in one of the pool, face down at the pool
as we tried to kill her for the third time. I don't think that
would have registered. Maybe not yet. When she turns around, you're gonna
be like, oh fuck, oh back of the head, you want to
move or take action? I mean, I think she turns around to see
where her captain and Tamir are because I think that's pretty much the only two
that haven't really gotten here. They look like they're going to run. Okay,
you you hear tell blast off another shot still fighting. They don't look
into but they still have some running to do. But the dark bound also
looks for heavily injured. There are now two soldiers who seem very confused as
whether or not your civilians or your sculpture. They can't quite decide. And
then this strange figure. You don't know, Okay, what can I do?
What can I do? Ah? Okay, what kind of do?
What kind of can does that? No? Sh I mean the only thing
I can think of doing right now is bless uh talent mirror? Can you
do it again today? I don't think it's blessing, not not prophetic blessing.
Oh okay, but actually it doesn't say the okay once yeah once,
pretty prophetic blessing is once today? I can do that. I was just
thinking regular blessing. Oh okay, you just want to stop where you're at
and pray for them to offer some help. Yeah, I mean I've kind
of crossed over. I couldn't. I mean, I believe you can offer
help. Mm hmmm, I just got to figure out. Yeah. The
other thing is you can hold your turn if you want, alia until they
get closer. I think that's what I'll do. I kind of crouch.
I kind of just have my hand on my door sword and kind of I'm
just waiting anxiously for those two two make it here safely and if not,
jump into assist. Okay, so for now we'll basically I'm gonna hold your
turn until you call you want to use it, since you didn't technically do
anything that does make it cautious turn. Kasha pulls a dura knife and it's
gonna go to town on one of these very confused soldiers. A single success
that will do the damage. So this this soldier takes he ah, she
kind of slices his back open. These soldiers are on our side, right,
They're not her soldiers. These are the soldier. These are the same
ones that were blocking the barricades. Okay, so these are like two on
the outside these but these did not come with you. They're not your soldiers.
They're like, this is the homogeny, Yeah, this is homogeny is
basically I don't like them, right, just check in. They're the ones
that have pinned you down. Basically, these two guys were on door duty.
They were the shitty soldiers that were on doordy. The other four were
holding the barricade against you. I imagine these the Hegemony are absolutely spaced on
the space SS is Tiny's turn. Tiny is gonna make a shot, Tiny,
I think, let's see. Yeah, Tiny's gonna take another shot.
Tiny, just go, buddy, stop shooting, just as he's got to.
He's a soldier. He fails once again the if he fires too far,
the wrong way, fucking Dwaine, the pebble Johnson over here and getting
the door. You know he's gonna take his whole turn and aim that shot.
So he's gonna add two D six to that with those successes. Fans
for this guy, tiny little pistol. All I can focus on is Alia,
but his soul, Oh god, do I see him missing those thick
prayers? Okay, So as I as I'm there, like with my blade,
just like in the shed, I see the shots missing, and as
a free action, I want to look over to Tiny and just like yell
and just be like, what is wrong with you? Are you wanting him
to do anything? Yeah? I want I'm be like Ron idiot roll a
command to see if you can get him to actually do what you want,
because he's trying to fight for Ali is on. Yeah, empathy ain't my
thing, just saying uh oh just roll empathy. Then if you don't have
any command, that ship is even worse. Oh a success. He turns,
it looks at you, and it a little bit shocked. He's like,
oh oh oh, yes sir, yes sir, and he turns and
you can tell he's gonna run on his next turn. Fucking idiot. Okay,
I'm going to uh. Then in the same spot, he's a action
normal action to do another another cluss combat. Yeah, go ahead, let's
see if I did this right on the dark bound Holy budge. Yeah.
Three, So a single success it does two points right of damage. Uh,
and it's a two on your critical for the sword. Yeah, so
I don't get any of those. You don't you do? You do?
Got it? You do? Yeah? So it's so it's you need one
success to hit and then the crit number is the number of sixes you need
an addition to get a crit. So if you have a two, so
you get three three three successes is a crypt for you. So roll those
two d sixes. My dude, Roll two six twenty four, twenty four
is teeth knocked out stune for one turn. Okay, it once again loses
its turn as this dura sword slices through it, knocking off just a little
bit more. It is one, two, three is so close to death,
y'all is so close to death? Am I? So if I used
a normal action, do I still have one point for a fast action?
No? Because you used the command? Oh commanded him turn? Yeah,
to do what you wanted. Yeah, but tiny ruining it again? But
it's always tiny smault. Uh that does make it t Mere's turn to mirror.
You can tell tell really wants you to run? Yeah, yeah,
I get that. How many more of these creatures do we see? Though?
You only see glasses on? Like, oh, what the fuck else
is out there? I'm sorry, that's the most crew being tow really wants
you to get out of it. No, no, I get it,
but I'm gonna understand that. But do you do take a look around and
may just me you you spin maybe taw things that you're listening to her,
but you look past how through these glasses down the hallway? Yeah, it
just a barricade or towards the medical. Towards towards the medical, so you're
going back towards residential, right where the arrow is pointing you look into what
is basically empty darkness. Somebody else would be able to see anything, and
through the walls on the other side of almost every one of these pieces of
residential housing are more of these dark bound. It seems that they did not
fully clean these out, and they've just barricaded in all of these bodies inside
of this residential housing, and all of them have risen like a lot.
I'm going to listen to tal but I'm going to pick her up. Okay,
I'm gonna let you make a force check. Not that Towe's a heavy
person, but okay, yeah, that's all it takes. You scoop Tow
and you begin to book it. Well. The dark bound loses its turn.
But the two soldiers gonna turn. One of them turns around and fires
a shot off at Kusha. It is close combat for them, so they
will take a negative two to this role. Oops, I didn't do that
right. That's okay they I'm gonna take the two in dice off so they
failed. The shot goes wide. The second soldier is gonna do the same
thing. This one I will do correctly, so that for no range combat.
What it didn't like my negatives oh, add prompted roll. Let's try
that again. Try ha, Okay, let's do it this way. Still
doesn't like it, Donna, you're rolling on the character sheet. Yeah,
at the top of the character sheet is so negative and a positive way.
I did that. Don't don't add a negative to the number. Oh,
there we go. Could I did it? Okay, so I'll do it
manually. So they fail same thing. Why pew, no shot? But
their backs are now to all of you because they are facing Kasha, making
it twels turn once again. Two. You are in the arms of tam
R. You do not have to worry about moving because you are being carried
as arms her favorite chariot camp. We're gonna go for a ride. Okay,
just just wanted to let you know. Someone drawing my hard eyes guns.
I need I need this. Uh, just just anime style like Near
with hard eyes and then Tal also with hard eyes, but one of them's
red and then she's still shooting the gun. Yeah, it's like anime eyes
as you as you point, you'll be able to use move with him and
use all your action points so you can actually aim if you wanted to.
Yeah, So I have a question. Can I see Kasha, Yes,
maybe a lot. Get closer and she's like, right through the door.
I am taking an aim shot at her. Okay, so take a plus
two plus your eyes. So that makes a plus three to this role.
Yes, and actually since Shamir is uh no, no, no clarification.
Yeah, so understanding of this entire character, I Ksha is not a bad
person for what I recall. Oh, yeah, she fucking is. She
tries to kill us all the time. Every time. What she has tried
to kill us? And we have almost killed her and so she has yeah.
No, Also we think she prove to give you a darkness point.
We're pretty sure she tortured and or killed the first what do you call it?
Holy shit, I thought she was fucked hurt. Fuck that bitch.
You need only one right for your critic one for a crit so you get
two rolls. So the damage is too on Kasha, Yes, damage is
two six thirty two. I'm working on it. Broken arms done for one
turn minus three to range in melee combat. Fuck, yeah, that's cure.
Fuck the bitch sucks for her. And then thirty five gouch eyes done
for one turn minus two, has arranged combat and observation okay, and then
everyone he I was behind here. Fuck you, Kasha. You watches the
shot rings out, It hits her arm, breaking it. You see it
like go limp. She drops the sword she was carrying because she can't hold
it anymore. She screams out and the shot pings off of her very shiny
armor and nicks straight through the slit in her helmet. As you you see
her like ah, as her head goes back. She's now blinded ed,
has a broken arm. Wow, that is great, Maleik, that's me,
I'm Malik. Hold on, I'm gotta look at draw weapon. So
a fast action is a draw weapon, and I'm going to attack in close
quarters because I'm right next to her. You and I have blown her up
so many times. I'm gonna shoot her with a gun. So take a
negative two or do you want to aim? Which would basically I wouldn't.
I can't aim because it's fast action to pull cool, So I will take
a minus one and let's see. Oh wait a second? Hold on?
Yeah, arranged combat minus one two successes. That will do it? How
much damage does she? Uh? It takes two? Not quite a crit
So yeah, just just the two, just the two two points of damage
as your shot hits her in the side and you can see she's like trying
to with one arm wrangle her help off because something is wrong. Wait one
second, I do have I forgot They doesn't add in your weapon damage your
weapon bonus. So I'm gonna roll my weapon bonus and see if that gives
me another sick. Yeah that's a crit. Yeah, yes, what is
your crit range? U two? It's two, so I needed a two
to hit, so I'm gonna give you roll two D six. This is
a city up in this place, A forty forty two. Uh perfect perfect.
That's so ridiculous. That's so ridiculous. It's crushed foot. So Malik,
who has thrown himself on the floor, sees her stabbed. Two dudes,
here's fuck you gotcha from down the hallway, and Malik rolls over,
pulls his pistol out of his back, and just fucking fires into her like
ankle crushed foot falls falls over. Movement rateness halved minus threda dexterity. She
is on the ground, screaming, trying to get her helmet off from the
blindness. Things are looking good for this Kasha, This Kasha, fuck you
dot with their clones, fat clone monster. But lady, I guess she
should have been rolling probably the gate some of this with her armor. But
y'all are just killing it to fuck it. I mean you can still in
the gate damage. You just don't Nick, Chrits, Chris, Alia,
you see them just everybody has turned all their attention to this woman. Alia
is absolutely confused, so confused. Kill that stranger. Just like Alia.
You do see out of the corner of your eye the vent up high where
the priest and the other guy coming out. It falls, it kind of
clatters to the ground on the far side of Kashna. Okay, uh oh,
what do I do? Is there in this hallway some sort of a
canister of some sort uh uh, like just a cylindrical object or like you
want something that can hold things? Sure, I'll say you managed to pick
up a dumpster? Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely, food canister. I
open that up. I'm going to pick up Kasha and drop her in there.
Oh roll, Oh you want to like like big container roll a force
Okay, okay, just because that's the only thing she can think of doing.
Is like, she's going to try to fight you, but she's not
going to get a lot to do that, because yes, damn it.
Uh yeah, you ate a single soup. Lift her up, use your
elbow to toss the lid on this dumpster and toss her in and slam it
close behind her. She screams, flow it down, and then I kind
of like I bend the the class so that it cannot be opened up.
Oh absolutely with that. That's a critical Yeah, you like with your bare
hands. Tiny is like, what an embarrassing day for the super soldier.
She's got sucking a shot to ship aliburd bones are broken. Then she get
thrown in the trash thinking the trash out. Uh, Tiny is gonna fire
a shot poor guy at one of the soldiers. Missus, you know what,
I love Tiny. I'm gonna spend the darkness point to reroll because I
can do that. It's probably not worth it, but nope, miss you
should do it again. No, uh, Tiny has used his full turn.
Uh you know he's gonna do that with a with He's gonna use his
full term to aim again. So he doesn't move. He fails once again,
so no luck, but he sucks. Yeah tiny, Tiny is not
really doing soul. You see that. Tiny sucks. Yeah, yeah,
so instead of running, he decided to shoot, right, Okay, uh,
he kind of like pittered a little and then saw the soldier's He's a
grunt, you know what I mean? Like anything he can shoot, he
wants to shoot. Plus these are the guys that killed y'all's team. Yeah,
that's fine, I get that. I'm going to Uh, my focus
is going to be on the shade. I'm gonna hopefully kill it with this
final attack. Okay, close combat two is a hit? Uh No,
that that'll do it. The damage is two on it? Three? How
do you take this final dark bound out? So Sol's just he's been hacking
and slacking and just killing it and then he's gonna do one of the things
where he kind of flips it and carries the blade this way and he's gonna
grab Can I grab the shade or is it? Can I not grab the
shade? I can't grab it? No, Okay, you can try.
Na Na, I've seen them before, right, Yeah, you would know
that they're not. They have a frame, but it's the corpse of something
underneath the shadows. Yeah. So then I'm no, I'm pretty sure I
thought them before. I'm going to turn up my blade. So the flame
emanates like just nice radiant red light, and I wanted to just stab it
down the throat. Yeah, you stabbed straight down, and it pierces the
shadow and bursts it open with the light from this blade. As it it
kind of pitters away when the shadows are gone. In its place lays a
very old corpse at your feet. In facts two of them from the one
before as well. Okay, and yeah do and then I'm gonna use my
fast action to sprint. Bolt. Yeah, you bolt for the door.
And see the two soldiers with their backs turned to you face. Well,
they were facing Kausha. Now they're facing Alia who just dumped Kasha in a
dumpster. Well done, sol t mer carrying towel. Still, I mean,
let's get through the door, right, that's what we want. You
basically use your turn to get all the way through the door. You would
have a slow I'm sorry, a fast action left. You could like take
the two of you into cover. You could you could spread past them all
could make an attack of opportunity in close combat. Oh did we did we
see kas should go into the metal dumpster? Yeah, you would have seen
Alia dumper in the dumpster and you can see her through your glasses, like
inside the dumpster. Yeah, oh oh, there's so much hatred because she's
the reason Ta Mirror almost died. And I think there's just a lot of
ship going on right now in the world, and he has had an outlet
yet, and this poor woman is gonna, oh be the outlet. So
as soon as they get in, Timir kind of like sets a tel down
with his shock stick. He's gonna jam it into the metal and activate it.
This metal dumpster electrifized, so this is a blue light everywhere. Someone
please go ahead and just take a picture of Nome's face and put it on
that one scene from Jurassic Park where he fucking zaps the raptor roll face on
the Raptor. I'm just gonna give her two damage for this, like a
basic weapon, and she like one, two, three, four five.
She's very very close to enough. She kind of you you see her body
kind of go limp in the dumpster through your glasses after the electricity stumps.
Who who said it was gonna stop? Oh, you're just gonna keep going.
I'm just gonna keep it on. Great, So we gonna keep it
on through this turn and see what we end up. The dark bound is
gone. The soldiers are gonna go. They're beginning to look real upset at
all of this. They watch this very large woman. Uh, they are
overrun. They are going to try to make a run for it. Everybody
within the vicinity except for ta Mir because you have basically an action you're holding,
we'll get an attack of opportunity. Tiny's gonna go ahead and take his
because he's a goober. Hey he did it. Baby's first shot they will
take with his vulcan pistol. Two more damage. So one of them like
ah he Tiny actually gets a shot off. He goes yeah, kind of
brass screams at them, but they're running for it. Does anybody else want
to take an attack of opportunity on them? These are the guys that are
pinning Soool down. Yeah. And then the ones that killed my people.
Oh when they're a hedgeman. You know, gotta one from Tala so much
to damage? Do you hit the the same one that Tiny was hitting?
Whichever one was was more in my vision? So we'll say this one you
can pick, so to damage you? How do you take this one out?
Uh? So I guess as as he starts to turn and he starts
to yell out. His face just kind of disintegrates, uh and becomes part
of the wall behind him. Yeah, he just like plops to the ground.
His friend is like, and he continues trying to run to get out
of here. He doesn't look like he's taking near as much damage. Malik,
who is still on the floor, rolls over and fire is down the
hallway like a weapon style, past the legs of Molie, past the legs
of TMR and everyone. How much damage to damage? Okay? Yeah you
ah? As he kind of like begins these limping uh taw and Elik took
one school. Can I am I able to throw my dag Yeah, it
would still be a melee because I don't have my gun, like I only
my blade in my Yeah, I don't know if that you could throw the
dagger like I would give it to you as a melee attack. Still why
not because you're still throwing it right this guy in the back a crit Yeah,
that is a success and you get the two so roll again on the
table daggers. Also, I also forgot that I have the executive that the
dagger does three okay, uh, and do you have talent, so have
executioner. Yeah, so if I I could switch, if I can switch
it the dagger, the daggers are quit three? No, I'm sorry,
damage is three? Is it? Oh? Krit two? Okay? Cool,
it's a Kryt two one. So you can get so the executioner lets
you either take a sixteen or what did you roll? Roll D six?
Try that again? Yeah, two D six h so you can get a
fifteen or a fifty one. A fifteen is there stunned for one turn and
a fifty one his broken spine. That's so much better broken spine. If
you one. They are paralyzed from the waist down. Unless medical aid is
given during the healing time, the paralysis becomes permanent. Yeah. He said
he wanted to run. Okay, this dagger slashes into his back and he
immediately goes face for some the ground, just eating it, and he screams,
still lift the eye patches. Fine, he goes, I can't fill
my legs, I can't feel my leged you monsters, And he's kind of
trying to crawl away, but he's in a lot of pain. He's got
a knife sticking out of his fie. I'm gonna say this end combat because
everybody is down and cannot take action. Caution dies in his beIN next round
as it finishes being electrocuted, because that's all her body can take. You
you see through the glasses to mirror that she goes completely limp and vital signs
read negative. Can could I like walk up to the guy that's trying to
crawl away and like just slowly walk next to him as he's trying to like
walk away, and as he's walking, I'm just gonna light up my blade
again and just finish him off like super quick. I will say clean toal
walks up too. And the last thing he's he hears before he dies is
no real monsters wait outside medical base for people to starve to death. But
but wait, wait wait what yep done? And there's like a silence that
kind of falls over. It is still rather dark here. You still have
what little light that you had, but you can see, uh, the
thin guy we call him skinny tiny, and Skinny Skinny is trying to lower
the priest down out of this this hole. I'm gonna rush over to help
him because okay, yeah, you kind of help the priest and he is
like he's really super injured. We have to carry him. Malik stands up
and like holsters his his vulcan pistol and just looks over looks over at Alia
in the carnage. Uh. He sort of just like wipes his hands and
says, welcome to the Defiant, and he walks over to help. So
Tiny Tiny comes over and goes, are you okay, Ali, thank you
great? Great shooting right right? Yeah, yes, sir, And he
kind of comes over and scoops the priest out of your hands. He has
no problem carrying this frail man at all. And he goes back to baseboss.
Yeah yeah, yeah, and hurry running. Uh, and all of
you will run the rest of the way back. You have to dodge a
few places here there. You know that there's a few barricades that you need
to avoid. On the occasion you may slip into a tiny spot, but
you make it to the stacks and back in to sanctuary. The knock is
given at the door, Soool gives the appropriate one. It opens up and
you're met by Julissa's face and she smiles seeing all of you, and then
her face drops as she sees the priest. I brought them back. She
kind of sighs a little bit. She's like, well, quickly into medical
bay. At least we have some I signal skinny or skinny and tiny to
go follow and take care of them. And they run off because they know
we're medical is no problem and gelysicists come quickly. We're gonna need a We're
gonna need to make sure to save him, as she kind of justice for
you all to follow behind as we will end our episode here because we are
overtime and we are back safe in sanctuary. Safe. Hell frickin' yes,
that was chaos. If it wasn't even organized, that was uncontrolled, unbridled
chaos. Welcome back to the show, Paul. This this has been a
