Team B: H4zardZ1, Wolfkit, Illgeo"Nope!"
Grab the hand and swing 'em like crazy
You swing one of the mannequins and slam it on another, but two more immediately attack you.
The first raises its hand for a rapid downward strike. You manage to raise your arm and block the attack, but the damn thing is too strong, pushing you off balance. And straight onto the blade of the second. The knife strikes you from behind, somewhere close to your kidneys before shoving you forward and onto the floor.
Team B
Continue lasering off arms, try to disable some of the ones harassing (H4zard) if I get the chance.
All you manage to do is emit a flash of light before you have to dodge the mannequins coming out of the door. Strangely, the things appear to be much less accurate with you. You don't even have to move to evade their slashes. It's like they are just slashing around blindly. You don't know if it's because of your flash of light or because of something else.
Weakneses?
Hmmm... If those things are remote controlled and not really intelligent... Then whoever is controlling them must have a way of seeing what they're doing... Perhaps a quick way to render them harmless would be to blind whatever that thing is. Assuming it's not magical. And.. What's the place a human would be least likely to search for a hidden camera or similar? The place providing the best view with minimal exposure... Even if you can't figure it out, merely smashing the lights might work.
Team C: akkudakku, FallacyOfUrist, mydjet"Oh come on? You aren't going to fight me fairly? At least put me down so we can punch each other to smithereens!"
If he refuses to put me down, start breaking his fingers one by one. If he puts me down, charge him and hit his leg using Dwarven Leverage.
The creature uses its free hand to scratch its head for a few seconds. It grunts and then sets you down.
You immedietly charge at the giant. He looks surprised by the ferocity of your onslaught.
The superpowered strike sends him flying backwards, through the wall and into a metal wall rack filled with glass tubes of various colours.
The impact pushes him partially into the wall, severely damaging the machine behind his back and the coils on his shoulders, in an explosion of sparks. Furthermore, whatever was into those vials causes a strange reaction with his skin, causing strange purple pustules to appear on one of his arms while the other turns pink and mushy looking, while his torso gains a slight green glow.
The room you're in appears to be some sort of storage/experiment area or prison. There's racks with various machinery or vials, most of them secured on the walls in sturdy looking containers as well as various beds, chains, robotic claws and restraining devices, some of them too large to fit a human. There's also part of the room from where you assume you were supposed to enter, a wooden door with nothing near it except a rather comical cage suspended above it by cables and wires.
"Gah, not again! Stop damaging my lab you imbeciles!" the short guy calls out from behind a thick-looking glass window, inside a structure that looks more like an airlock or some sort of metal bunker with two gigantic Tesla coils above it,
crackling with electricity.
"You! Short guy!" Is he talking to you? You assume he is, since he's pointing at you. How can someone shorter than you dare call you short?
"Stop moving so that my brilliant plan can work! And you! Crush him! Crush him now!" he shouts, his face red with anger, almost jumping up and down near the end.

Keep heading towards the next room, and see if anything changes with the psychic energies.
Well, the void has started moving towards you again. And your teammate overtakes you as he starts running away.
<Team A, Svajoklis>
Okay then. Let's move in the general direction of "away".
Go to the other room, reload as I go. Open the door and shoot once if the room is not illuminated. Use the explosion flash to inspect the room.
You start running through the hallway leading to the other room, reloading as you go, overtaking Bryan who is carefully walking through the hallway. In the dim light coming from behind you, you spot some sort of tripwire there. It's not connected to anything though, merely there to cause you to trip. Now that you know it's there, you easily avoid tripping on it.
From the looks of it, the room at the end of the hallway is like a waiting area. A couch at the end of a downward stairway, facing a coffee table and the wooden door behind it. It would There's also a door made out of metal bars, leading into a narrow stone hallway.
Team A
Retract anchors, redeploy anchors. Do so repeatedly if I can until I hit something. Or until they are deployed in way that makes it hard to get to me from the inner edge of my effect radius. Keep charging. Hope some effects start manifesting.
The lights come back on in the room and you start charging normally again.
You inspect yourself. You're not looking very healthy. You're still charging normally and don't appear to be leaking anything dangerous, but there's definitely large parts of you missing and you can see the points where the bullets went in your body. There's blood everywhere, but you can't tell if it's from your transformation or not. You don't know how healthy that would be if you ever went back to human...
You've got a nice little web around you. As long as something doesn't materialise inside it, you should be fine.
