"Thank you my friend. Now is time to keep my promise."
Order my weapon platform to roll into the elevator.
Use this man and nearby corpses to build the flesh golem we discussed earlier.
Weep.
The platform rolls into the middle back of the elevator, leaving room from others. You set up a wall of boxes and bring the corpses behind it, they don't need to see this... You work very hard, and somehow, a large creature comes to life and walks from beyond the box wall. It is a bit more than 7 feet tall, and has two arms and legs just like a human. It is very muscular, and has arms and legs like fire hydrants. It's face has no nose, just two slits, and it's eyes are large and completely white. It has a blank expression on it's face. Oh, it's naked also, though it has no genitalia before you ask.
You feel a sharp pain from the wound in your leg from earlier. Beneath the skin, you see black tendrils slowly spreading outwards from it, something horrible moving through your veins.
You begin to weep loudly.
"Vitamins! Score!"
Have my daily recommended dose of vitamins. Then head over to the elevator. Examine carefully the options on it for one that might lead to a shuttle, and note its direction.
You eat a very large vitamin and begin to walk over to the elevator. The professor has set up a wall of boxes and drags some of the dead bodies behind it. You decide not to ask and continue to the elevator. You look at the options on the elevator, and call upon your knowledge from the service. The bridge and engineering could have shuttles, though you are not sure if any are still here. You wonder if the ship has it's escape pods operational, they could be used in a pinch.
You remember the large blast doors that the ships you were on had on their bridges. If it's closed, you'll need tools, time, and or explosives to break through them. They are very well built, and very durable.
You turn and see a tall muscular ogre of a man(you think) walk out from behind the boxes, you hear someone weeping loudly...
Ah. I wish we had a second route of attack. all piling in the elevator seems so risky. Also, now I wish I had a crowbar. Well, at least I have my ship model.
"Professor, can you build a force shield projector or something before you do ... whatever it is you are doing? Something to stop bullet from tearing us all to shreds when the elevator opens?"
Fridge! New guy? Never did catch your name. I think we'll take the elevator to the bridge. Looks like they are expecting trouble up there, but it may be only lightly guarded. Be on the lookout for any more like us. You know what I mean. Oh, don't assume they are friendly just because they are different. No telling how long the Federation has been doing this. They might have more of us, only hostile.
Gauge how my mind feels in regard to the thought of abusing gravity again. Wait for Fridge and the new guy to get on the elevator and press the bridge button.
((goddammit, I forgot my own damn name. It's Newton Smith, Not John newton. Aoshima, could you ix it in my quote to the dog? I'm editing that post now.))
I close my eyes and try to sense the objects around me by mass, paying particular attention to my companions, including Ed, and to the floor above, looking for humanlike mass signatures. While I'm checking my companions, see if there is a telltale that identifies them as 'magical' and that distinguishes one form from another.
((Fixed it, except I'm the GM, not Aoshima
. It did seem a bit off too me too, I just decided that Newton was his last name when he called himself John.))
Well, you are still recovering from that, though you feel a new found strength, you feel that your powers will be stronger than ever before. You could use your powers now, just not extensively without consequences.
You don't know what to expect when you first try to locate things this way. At first, nothing seems to happen. But, after a bit of experimentation, you decide what you can do is apply a very light gravitational effect to the area around you (almost unnoticable to most people) and then determine object's by the amount of feedback you get. Currently, you can't easily distinguish between things, since this is new to you. But, you feel so definite feedback in the level above you, some directly above the ladder hatch, and some moving around a bit. This didn't really tire you out since you did it in a limited amount.
You turn and see a tall muscular ogre of a man(you think). You hear someone weeping loudly... behind a wall of boxes that someone set up when you weren't looking. Is that the Professor?
To Newton:
"Oh right, you were knocked out when I showed up. My name is Phil Jenkins. I can mess with people's senses. What's your name? You got some kind of special power too?"
Enter the elevator. Look around for other potential entry points in the elevator. Analyze the elevator's button panel and check if I can tamper with it to cause the elevator doors to stay closed after it arrives at another floor.
You see hatches that can be accessed on the floor and ceiling of the elevator, for use in zero gravity situations. Though since there is gravity currently, someone would have to rappel down with ropes to access it. As far as you can tell no one is on top of the elevator... yet. You think you could lock the doors shut. But, you would need to do it yourself manually each time, you don't know how to make them lock automatically.
You hear a faint crying outside, turn around, and see turn and see a tall muscular ogre of a man(you think). It's naked... and it's eyes are completely white. It has a dumb look on it's face and drools a bit.
