Wake up, figure out what I'm smelling up here.

For Feyri:
Quote from: Feyri to HMRC
Lyra is acting odd on top of that tower the LESHO was fired from. Searching for a UE now. backup would be appreciated.
pick up Lyra and drape her over my shoulder, ready my weapon, and search the area for the UE messing with Lyra's head.

((@Lenglon: I think Lyra's just acting like a cat. The doc did say there would be side effects. Like being cat-like in behavior (for example: taking lots of naps, chasing small fast things, etc).))

((Up until now I have never needed a will roll to act normal, Lyra's cat-like behavior thus far has been voluntary, and it's a purfectly normal cat behavior to investigate something curious, like a set of new smells. yet for some reason I'm unable to even attempt to satisfy my cat-like curiosity.))

((as a counterexample, of where I decided to do something decidedly un-cat-like, I did NOT need a will roll to take a shower.))

Let me take a look at the console and get back to you on that. Don't worry, not going to touch it until we are on the ground. Speaking of, how much longer to ground level?

Study the hole in the console with an eye for if it's possible to fix and what additional parts I'd need. Note if it looks like there might be unseen damage further back in the console.
Also sneakily ask PW how many more turns til touchdown :P
Oh, and ask if this would be aux or handiwork. Cause it's not always clear to me when aux ends and handi begins XD

@Gorat *beep* The Medical team you are attempting to contact is currently preoccupied with falling out of the sky. If you need medical attention, we will be with you as soon as possible. If you are beyond the aid of mere mortals, please transport your brain to the Sword at your earliest convenience. Leave additional details after the beep. *beeeeeeeeep*

(( @Lenglon: This is also the first time you've really tried to use that nose for tracking. So it being a side effect is a fair bet :P it may also be a timer or other random side effect. By which I mean, PW has a timer or is rolling a D20 or something to decide its time for you to nap, as cats are wont to do :P And now you need will rolls to resist your nap.
Still, doesn't hurt to be cautious, though I don't know who is in a position to support. Maybe Gorat and the bag of meat formerly known as Teal? I can also support, if I can get the black ship back in the air XD ))

Message the rest of the hunters: "I've reached the end of the blood trail, and I'm at a crossroads.  I think it's time for another group to start moving forward, I could let this guy out past me."  Take a look down the passages, is there anything of note, or are they just more hallways?

((@Paris: I didn't mention this earlier, but destroying the corpse's chest with a couple of gauss rounds seems like a good UE check. Mainly because in the case it is a corpse, then losing his innards isn't too bad, and in the case it is a living Executioner, then losing his squishy bits - or in the case of a cyborg, his braincase - would certainly be a deterrent. Of course, if it's just a corpse then that'll be both useless and potentially dangerous.))

Milno considers how he hasn't noticed a stubble forming. More pressing matters, probably. "Flint, what do you got?"

Keep guard.

((The life of a HMRC member is beginning to look like a guardsman's: several months or even years of transit and/or waiting, then life-threatening situation/violent senseless death.))

Nah, we're all good. We should be on the ground shortly and safely. Might want to get ready to run out and help the AMP team? It sounds like things are coming to a head over there, and I'm not going to have this back in the air quickly.

"well, the best I got is a laser rifle and a complete inability to use it, oh, and an emergncy kit as well but at this rate that's going to be more dangrous than the rifle."

((The corpse is obviously a trap. I knew the moment I saw it. No man can loose so much blood and keep walking for a few HUNDREDS of feet. Plus, the body, arranged that way? It just screams "I have an explosive under or near me that will explode the moment you turn me over." If it was the modern day I'd guess a grenade without a pin or a claymore, but I don't know what kind of high tech (of low tech) trap he might have set up.))

Damn my squishy human body.

How wide are those corridors and are there tracks on the blood? Does it look like it was dragged here? Could a man really walk so far after loosing so much blood? Remove my glove and touch the blood. How warm does it feel? Poking the man felt like he was wearing clothes, not UE camo gear, right? (UE camo gear wouldn't bend and move like normal clothes. How many exits does this room have?

Use the above evidence and previous data to determine where the killer went.

Ask for ways to bypass this area.

Try to look under the body without moving it. Also be on the lookout for tripwires.

Keep in contact with Steve during the entire examination, relaying my findings, just in case I go bananas and/or explode.


"I need some cameyes here! Anybody with synthflesh available? Otherwise, I'm possibly detonating a potential explosive device of unknown yield in an enclosed space, that may also alert the UE."
