"Come on!"

Try to help the octopus out of the cave. If I can't help them, crawl to the north.


(6) You manage to assist the Experiment out, your powers working in a helpful manner for once allowing you to alert her to the presence of unstable rocks.  This causes her to rapidly ascend, and you two to make rapid progress north.

If the people I'm following are in view, activate Kanohi Kualsi and teleport to them. If not, activate Kanohi Akaku to find any clue of where they went, then activate Kanohi Kakama and run after them.

(4) They decide to help you out somewhat, but since you don't see anyone, or any trace of anyone, yet, they aren't going to help.  If you do find a trace or see someone who is not from the facility, they will do something.

Climb out/ be helped out by [playergamer], continue going north

(6) You are helped out by the blind experiment, and the two of you manage to make expediated progress.



Power Check for Waitlisters

Name: Mark
apperence:Mark looks like a massive dog with a red coat and large claws
power:Mark has enhanced sences/bone strength and muscle strength but can't talk due to warping of vocal cords

(1) Mark has incredibly dulled senses, fragile bones and low muscle strength.  He has a marvelous voice, though, able to convince most people to do illogical things.

Name: Alice
Appearance: Alice's blonde hair reaches towards her shoulders, and her skin is very pale.  Her eyes are light blue.  Overall, she has a very willowy build and doesn't look strong at all, but her eyes are an extremely unnatural shade of light blue.  She wears a black ribbon in her hair, and her arms are covered in red marks that are past injection sites for various drugs.  She seems to greatly crave sweets for an unknown reason.
Power: The ability to grow or shrink size at will.  General body shape is unaffected.

(6) Alice can grow or shrink at will, if she steals or gifts the mass from or to another living being of the same race.  Body shape takes on aspects of the appearance of the beings that mass is stolen from.  (ex. Muscle mass, fat, and hair, but not gender.)  Stealing mass results in an intoxicated feeling while shrinking results in nausea, both scaled to amount of mass lost or gained.

Name: Jase
Appearance: Jase has a very large build, with broad shoulders. He is about 6 feet tall, with pale skin and brown hair and eyes.
Power: He can control and shape metal

(4) Jase can control and shape precious metals and gems.



The Escaped

After a night of cowering in caves, hiding from the facility which performed the experiments upon you, you begin to meet up with the others who made it out.  Eventually, you and six others all manage to group together into one cave, some having a more difficult time, such as Jim and the Seer having run into a Cougar, which was eventually killed, giving Jim adapting more streamlined appearance and the fur of the animal due to the powers she has.

The Recaptured


You awaken within a cage.  You almost had your taste of victory, but you failed to make it far enough before they recaptured you.  You wonder what is going to happen to you.  Maybe they'll terminate you and dissect your corpse.  Or maybe they'll just skip that step and go ahead with it anyway on your still living body.  They may have created you, but that doesn't mean they know how their changes would affect you.  You're going to need to get out before that happens...

"I think there's a road going west to north-east somewhere to the north. We should cut north-west (1 square west, then north) and try to reach the road as soon as possible. We should stick together. They can't grab all of us at once, right?"

The potato pondered a course of action for a long moment, its skin very faintly wrinkled with concentration.
After a few minutes, it added its opinion to the discussion. "..."
Or at least maybe it did. It's kinda hard to tell with potatoes.

Everyone.  Wasn't able to add location to all the sheets before I had to leave for somewhere.

((Do you consider precious metals to be just gold, silver, and platinum, or can Jase control palladium and iridium too? Also, if we get out of here, we should heist a jewlery store. Or at least my character should.))
Jase

Look around and see whether the cage is locked electronically, or with a lock that requires a physical key.

"Ah, I think it's not too late to bust out of this rabbit hole!"

Give mass to John so that I can shrink down to a small enough size to slip through the bars.

((Do you consider precious metals to be just gold, silver, and platinum, or can Jase control palladium and iridium too?))

Pretty much the metals and gems on these pages:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_element
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare_earth_mineral
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare_earth_element
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gemstone_species
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precious_metal (after subtracting the aluminum and the metals in the chart over 100 mass abundant parts per billion)

((Also, if we get out of here, we should heist a jewlery store. Or at least my character should.))

I find it interesting that the powers of the four who are trapped basically have the makings of an effective standalone group, possibly taking the opposite path of the successful escapees.  Mark's power would put him in line with the Charmer.  Alice, with her absorption abilities, could potentially be a Lightning Bruiser.  Jase's control over precious metals provides a need to go into darkness, along with being a Glass Cannon Black Mage equivalent or a Red Mage equivalent depending upon physical combat ability.  John has more of what could be described as Utility Magic, but it is possible that he could be the Genre Savvy Chessmaster

"Ah, I think it's not too late to bust out of this rabbit hole!"

Looks like John is getting a mildly feminine appearance for a short time.  Or maybe a partial face.

Well at the very least I can get some experience working as a charisma character (Never done that before)

((Does my power include metaphorical lamps and their shades?))

Mention that setting cages in one large room is a rather inefficient solution compared to individual cells and much easier to escape from with co-operation. With my newly-gained mass and thus strength, bend the bars of the cage and knock the guard out with a heavy flashlight.

Nix: I'm all for riding in to town on the back of a truck.  Us...stranger looking ones will need some disguises.  Worst case scenario, I stay in the woods outside a town.

That would be less your power, and more being just genre savvy, since that would be found in conversations primarily.

((Is it alright if you guys can put your character names in your turns?  It's getting confusing keeping track))

This'll be a good idea.  It would minorly cut down on the jumping around I have to do when I want to find the names of a character to make a turn.
