Turn 24
Day 3
The Sun slowly raises in weakening rainfall. The dark clouds have dispersed, but it's still going to be an overcast day. It still might rain later.
Ronald Roman
I will need something to carve a hole in the tooth. And then a string. Or just the string, if I'm unlucky.
The rain has ceased and some light finally got to the warehouse.
[4] Seeing that you'll need a string and some carving tool, you search around the warehouse. It's easier to find anything now that it's not so dark. Then, you've found out that you had them right in front of your nose! In tractor toolbox you've found a rusted screwdriver and a twine. You slowly carve out holes in the teeth and make a necklace out of them.
You've received a rusted screwdriver and a teeth necklace [flesh giant trophy]!
Lorence "Lucky" Jackson and Nix
I Keep trying to Sleep
Keep watch, pay attention.
It's not raining anymore and it's brighter all around.
[2] Lorence is still trying to sleep, but he can't. He's just lying in the cargo with his eyes closed.
[4] In the meanwhile Nix is keeping his watch, keeping an eye on nearby area, but there is nothing unusual happening around. It seems that the only attraction he can receive now are some flies landing on boar's corpse.
Anna Iveson
tiredly look for a place to rest with big sis.
It's still raining, though much weaker than before and it's brighter.
[5] Really tired, you wander around shore of Dnieper in search of a good place to rest. Then you've found an abandoned fisherman hut, there is small rowboat tied to a hut, drifting on rapid waters. You enter the hut and finally take a rest, without searching through the building first.
You recover all your fatigue
Your Luck and Intuition increase by 1
Your survival skill increases by 2
Nardo Polo
Go meet my new mercenary friendos.
Another rainy day begins.
[4] You say:
- Thankyouverymuch! Iwon'tdisappoint
And leave the cafe, watching the address of the hotel you're supposed to be in now. A short walk through some mostly empty, wet streets and you're in your destination. You show your room key and take stairs to second floor. You enter the room, it's suited for one person, and it's rather average hotel room. You figure out that other stalkers should be in nearby rooms. You knock to one of them and when the doors open get in with words:
- "HiI'm Narbo Polbo stalkermercenaryandallaroundbadassfellow Whomarey'all?

[2] There are three man inside, preparing their rifles for next assignment. They don't seem to be paying you any attention. One of them glances at you once and says:
- No idea where you've left them. There's no time for talking, we can have another assignment any moment!
Dustan Hache
Try to locate some more loot, unless the rain stops. Either way, Make my way out of the anomaly field and start heading in a direction that seems like a border.
The rain has stopped, so anomalies can recharge properly now.
[5] When the anomaly lost it's power, you immediately searched through anomaly field and found two another crystal clear ball, some strange metal object - plastic while cold and giving a feeling of slight electricity running through it. You've noticed that electricity arcs are raising rapidly! You try to run away, but it's too late! Luckily the anomaly didn't striked abut shifted and disappeared, leaving a pile of ash. It seems to be glowing with blue glow. You look fo a suitable container and found an old glass bottle, clean from the inside and lightly dirty outside. You take the dust.
- New artifact types have been discovered -
Fisk Black
If he does, throw them into the crowd of ghouls. Then make a mad dash for the truck, shooting any ghouls who get in my way/too close for comfort.
If not, report back to field command with this message;
It's still raining a bit, at least it's not as dark as before.
- Got any 'nades? - you ask your companion.
[1] He takes a look at his equipment and finds himself completely without ammo! He won't be of much use at long distance combat, at least he'd still be able to fight melee.
- *Units 6 and 3 are going to create a distraction so you can pull out and get back to base. Over.*
You take your rifle - two magazines, 30 bullets each. Might be enough to elliminate enough ghouls to get into the truck!
[2 - 2]
Your drowsiness seems to be a real problem! You can't even hold the gun properly in this state! You give the ammo to your companion.
[1] Unluckily it seems that he can't even load it! Who even allowed him to assist in this mission you'll never know. At least he doesn't waste any ammo. You quickly gather attention of the swarm and ghouls run towards you, screaming horrifyingly!
[6] Suddenly you hear a loud rumble! Something tore through a nearby building, making it collapse completely. You heard loud, echoing thumps. Ghould stop seemingly confused and stare blankly at falling building. After a short while, the dust settles down and something breaks free from the rubble! It's a huge, one eyed mutant with maw full of teeth, walking on two powerful legs! A flesh giant! It runs into the swarm, totally ripping them to bloody pulp. Guts fly and black ichor spills all around!
You really should get to that truck. You lose 5 fatigue! You can barely walk!
Irene Dragojavich
Search to see if there is anything useful here. Make a mental note of how to get back to this anomaly, and the safe ways in and out while I can see it. Leave some method of marking it that only I would recognize. Once I'm out, try to get my bearings and shelter from the storm.
See if I can remember if I've met my target before, and if I can identify him visually.
It's still raining. You lie on the ground, tied up. You spit:
- мудак. Well, at least he left me with gun.
[1] And try to free yourself, but it seems that these bonds are really tight!
[3] Then you try to recall how that Lucky looked like - you recall only his height, about 5 feet and a tatoo on his back. Alice, there was Alice.
