"HMM!" Ramerath strokes the magnificent stubble that almost certainly covers his chin. "So Dracula's lowest level guards were waiting just outside. Good job, strong man! Your unexpected assault has turned the battle against them in our favor! Now, I'll handle THIS zombie..."

Engage in slap fight against the disarmed guard. Win due to metal rod-based slaps.

TURN 2 OF METAMORPHICAN MADNESS: Nasty Little Insects

Quickrun out the door and push the elevator button, ignoring all other people.

[Agi 6 -> 1] Xabar, seeking a way away from all these other people desperately, decides to make use of his new abilities and sprint to the elevator past them. He doesn't have any bit of sympathy for these idiots. Smiling in anticipation, Xabar warms up his feet, takes a good starting stance, and runs. He's still smiling when he crashes headfirst into the wall at incredible speed a second later, [Toughness 6 -> 3][0] bouncing back screaming. He falls on his back, his head smacking on the ground as well for good measure. His face seems to have left a permanent dent in the wall. Xabar doesn't feel to good when he gets back up, but atleast nothing seems to have broken.

Xabar: Dazed!

Once again try and grab the bug and follow the others.

[Agi 6 -> 4] Clair remains suspicious of the bug, but knows she has to catch it. This time, she doesn't bother with bouncing, instead settling quietly against the wall and waiting for the bug to come clear. A frustrating amount of time passes with the thing crawling around randomly, but at last it comes close enough for her to reach out and trap it beneath her hand. Slowly, savoring her victory, Clair pulls the bug to her. It struggles in her grasp, snapping with its mandibles, [Charisma 6 -> 1] and only gets more and more agitated the longer Clair holds it. [Agi 6 -> 2] She can hardly avoid its bite and it stabs into her hand, [2][Toughness 6 -> 4] though she manages to hold on despite the searing pain.

Trying to keep the thing from biting her again, she wanders off to the others at the door.

Clair Hammer: Right Hand: Lightly Damaged!

"HMM!" Ramerath strokes the magnificent stubble that almost certainly covers his chin. "So Dracula's lowest level guards were waiting just outside. Good job, strong man! Your unexpected assault has turned the battle against them in our favor! Now, I'll handle THIS zombie..."

"Hey."
 
Derm makes a finger gun motion. "Lava gun. Bang."
 
Make the guards think and look like they are covered in lava. Make a scent of burning flesh.

[Agi 6 -> 5] Leaping through the doorway to Derm's side, Ramerath swings his new weapon in a nice sideways arc to bring it down [Guard Agi 2] against his opponent's check with a pleasant crack. [2+3=5] He goes down, face-smashed, and Ramerath lets out a triumphant cry. [Willpower 5 -> 3] The guard is still breathing, but he seems to be trying to play dead rather than run or fight.

[Willpower 6 -> 1] A wicked grin spreads on Derm's features to Ramerath's side as he raises his hand and makes a finger gun motion. The guard freezes at his quip mid-strike, going white - but then frowns, seeing nothing wrong. Derm wonders where he went wrong - and then Ramerath begins screaming behind him about burning. The guard swings his baton again as Ramerath runs in circles behind them.

[Guard Agi 5 -> 3] His blow is clumsy [Agi 6 -> 6] and Derm steps out of the way absentmindedly. Well... atleast Ramerath seems to be buying into his illusions. The smell of burning flesh fills the air, making some of the gawking scientists gag. Most of them seem to be taking notes and babbling excitedly to eachother, though.

"OH CHRIST! I NEED A MEDIC!"
Look for help from a friendly mutant who may or may not have wound healing powers, then investigate the janitors closet.

[Perception 5 -> 5] Staring in horror at his wounds, Bruce staggers over to the next room, but finds the hopefully healing mutant preoccupied by being covered in steaming lava and running around the room. Shrugging, he moves on, nodding politely to the downed guard and his friend, who is busy with the superstrong one.

Bruce peers around the room, spotting the janitor's closet and decides it would be an exciting place to visit. He strides over to the door and pulls it open, revealing a cramped, narrow room filled with two shelves with various canisters and chemicals - strangely many, actually - as well as assorted brooms, buckets and other junk. The rusty sink could get water for the gilled one, who didn't seem too comfortable last Bruce saw him. Bruce enters and settles down, eyeing his wounds warily.

Quote from: Firelordsky/##bay12rtd
Fun action: bathe in the blood of guards, hope it works as water replacement

[Agility 4 -> 3] The gilled one has other plans, though. Michal doesn't see water, but he knows over half of the human body is water. Logically, he should get water from people's bodies - and the guard on the floor seems to be the best option. He sneaks forward, giggling at his genius. His mutated body groans and cracks as he moves, slowing him down considerably. By the time he arrives in the room beyond, the guard is already rising. Michal sends a kick towards his skull, [Guard Agi 5 -> 2] but his body refuses to follow orders and only gently brushes the man's hair. He looks very confused by the motion.

Michal is not feeling too well. Breathing seems to be getting harder by the second.

The elevator doors open and the scientists begin rushing their way. Out of the elevator step three new guards - one of whom is carrying a pistol.

Spoiler: Derm (dermonster) (click to show/hide)



Spoiler: Xabar (Xantalos) (click to show/hide)

As you can see, if you do not post, ##bay12rtd will decide your action for you. I think we can all understand why that's not a good thing. Also, the RNG hates everyone but freeform. I'm sorry, folks.

At the end of next turn we'll have our first set of mutation rolls, exciting stuff.

Toss the bug into the elevator and then quills them.

"Hey Michal, take some of this water here!" Bruce picks up some chemicals and walks over to one of the guards, trying to restrain him with a force field "I never signed up for this, but neither did you I suppose. Want to feel what my new life is gonna be like?"

"Illusionary art, Creeping void!"

Make parts of the elevator appear to rapidly decay and fall to pieces. Eminate a smell of corroded metal. Also beat the guard what tried to bash me with another guard.

Still waiting for freeform and Firelordsky. If Firelordsky does not post this turn, he will suffer a catastrophic mutation overload and end up in itty bitty pieces/a pool of steaming liquid/an unrecognizable mass of flesh and bone/become one with the universe.

Oh whoops.

"Excellent! Now let me just pick up this sub-weapon here. I wonder if I have enough hearts to use it..."

Reach for the knocked-out or dead guard's baton. Test it to see if it's a stun baton or otherwise empowered. Let the others handle the other guards.

I realize this is dead, but I really wanted to see this happen. Ah well.

If you can, just do the turn and have firelord mutate into a corpse.

Well, since DH said it was dead, someone should write a fitting ending for the thread anyway.

Possibly involving Derm.
