((Sorry again! Posting now! Um, just pretend that the chieftain told you to build the barricade to the north
))
After Erin tells her plan to the party, she soars up to the air and looks around the area. (4+Int 2-DC 4) You find that the village only has one slope to it's entrance to the north. The other sides are just cut-off hillsides. The slope coming up has one main road, and three smaller roads leading up to it. The area that Clair first encountered the things is not far; at most a kilometer from here. There is one relatively tall tower just outside the village; it looks like it could hold up to three men.
Jackal looks around the village entrance, designing a mental image in his mind on what would be most ideal. (21+Int 1-DC 9) You manage to design a fairly safe design. You think that you should put sharpened logs on the ditch, and build a wall behind it; preferably made of wood, sandbags, or loose rocks. The ditch is about 10 m deep, and is around 30 m wide, nearly reaching the end of the cliff. You think that if you start filling it with water now, you might be able to fill it to the brim in time. With the plan in mind, all you need now are workers to retrieve the materials and start working.
Nectarius runs around town, calling to people in the square. You call for help, and try to get their attention. (6+Cha 2-DC 3) They listen intently on your pleas. They immediately run to their houses and come back out, fully armed and fully armored. They rush to Jackal and ask for his instructions. Some have already brought their axes and hammers, and one evolved with four arms is bring a whole load of wood.
Meanwhile, Clair and Inter head over to the Aquisitioners and ask for their help. The guards stop you and aim their Shooters at you. You tell them what's happening, but they don't listen. Eventually, their leader comes and when he hears about the things, he orders the guards to let you pass.
"Ah, the Thralls have troubled you too, eh?" he chuckles.
"We, too, have been troubled by the vermin. You see, when we first arrived in the Galapagosian Quarantine, there was a Wall which we could not fly over. So, we blew up a large hole. We thought of colonizing the floors first, as our scans couldn't detect any life signatures. Our scans were wrong. Oh, so wrong...""After the first week, our men had been strangely disappearing. We searched for them, but could not find them. Eventually, we found them. They changed, though. They were different. Changed. Warped. They started attacking us, their numbers swelling. We managed to put some of them down, but they started screaming. They were... calling something. Some of our men could not handle it, succumbing to the screams and going mad. Shouting 'Qz' or something. The larger Thralls arrived; one in particular, was very memorable to me,""The beast was a behemoth, dwarfing many of our tanks. It walked on four large legs. It had a long neck, and four large arms. It pushed us back outside the Wall in less than an hour. My team and I could not make it in time; and so, we were left here. We will lend our aid," he says calmly, with strange looks from the soldiers. He quickly dismissed their looks and ordered them to help with the barricade and supply you with shooters.
Kira heads to the shop, looking for the armor-smith. He is picking up his weapons and heading to the entrance. You call out to him; he stops and turns.
"Why hello! Have you heard? Monsters are coming! If you need weapons, just take them from the store! Don't worry, you look like a trustable young lady! You can pay me later!" he says, rushing off to join the help.
Now, nearly the whole village is at the entrance, awaiting instructions. The Aquisitioners are also there, cleaning and maintaining their shooters. The children are helping, too. They are picking up stones for their slings, and helping carry wood for the barricade. The sun will set soon; so it seems that it's best to hurry.
((Wait, did I forget anything? Anyways, sorry for being late...
