Danh grabs the Gauss. Securing it to the brace as he aims towards the heat signature that is The Creature.

The majority of the group opens fire while prone. This normally would be a very poor choice with a massive monstrosity made of fingers barreling towards you. Khaiden however, moves to the edge of the group, demonstrating a survival instinct somewhat greater than the average sleeping sloth.

Danh waits for the creature to angle towards the group and start charging.

He squeezes the trigger. [20, Critical Success]

The Gauss fires. Completely Silently, uncannily silently, the multiple sonic booms from the launched projectile produce no sound, however trees in and near its path topple over in an almost uncanny silence, the gale force winds shattering their ancient, dead bark.

The projectile hits the Monstrosity dead center. Ripping through its unarmored form and flying out the back, bits of heat fly everywhere in the IR, much of the mass still continuing towards the group before slowly rolling to a halt. The projectile flies off into the distance. It will probably exit the storm before it hits the ground and very possibly might hit something important to somebody.

The Creature is probably dead. Or at the very least unable to locomote. The more profit minded of you feel like it would be a good idea to take samples.

Ratodx stares for a moment before the fact that his prayer was answered sinks in. He'll have a lot of research to do when he gets back to the Spire.

"Danh, that was a fantastic job. Alright team, I want a sitrep on your condition. Any injuries? Did it touch you? After checking over yourself, have someone else check over you as well. Also, direct order: No one get close to the hostile. It might be dead and it might not be. We're not risking it.""

"Melnakos, I'm going to want to get a sample or three from this thing. Think you can carefully use some Earth to collect some of the crap that flew off of it and very carefully put it into some sample bags? Akras is going to want to take a look at it."

Ratodx checks over himself for injury and then checks over Regon and Danh as well while he waits for responses.

[Bill Chompski]

Danh grins from behind his helmet, before saying, "Let's see magic do that.", before recalling seeing a magi cause a gorilla to spontaneously combust.
...
Anyways, moving on...

[S34N1C]

"Holy shit. . . Nice shot."

Dexter pats Dahn on the back and begins to check himself over.

[KaineFisher]

Khaiden views the creature with aura sight to make sure its unlife is over.

"I'd advise not touching Undead in general, and more so with this one's likelihood of touching back."

[hops]

"I'm with Khaiden on this one, boss. Can't we just take the sample after we neutralize the other hostiles? We ain't getting paid for the samples when we're dead."

[KaineFisher]

"Better yet, I'd advise letting Akras specialists handle it. We're here for Vampires, so anything else is extra."

[Bill Chompski]

"They can come back? Shit, let's burn it then."

[KaineFisher]

"It would be the safe thing to do, but it means that we'll be breathing in the thing's ashes in the smoke. So we either leave it here and hope it stays dead or burn it and hope we can survive having it inside our bodies. I vote we leave it."

[Bill Chompski]

"...we've all got helmets, right? Anyone forget theirs?"

[KaineFisher]

"Plus I'm pretty sure Akras will want a sample. If it does come back we'll know for next time. And the ashes will be covering our suit, so it's up to you if you want necromantic tissue covering you for the rest of the mission. If you do burn it I'd advise distance."

[S34N1C]

"That's a good point. We all have helmets, so we probably won't breathe it in. Although, I would say that this is Ratodx's call, not ours. He already told Mel to get a sample."

[somemildmanneredidiot]

"If you paid attention, I already gave orders to not get close to it. The sample collecting will be done from parts that are no longer part of the main body, and only through careful use of Magic so that no physical contact is had with it. We're getting samples because we want to get paid more and the samples aren't guaranteed to stay here. Once that's done we're going to make sure we don't go anywhere close to it. In fact, Vhan, take a picture of the area where it stopped so it's marked on our HUDs so we can make sure to avoid it on the return trip."

"Regon, it looks like Mako sprained her ankle. Could you use one of your spare healing totems on her? Mako, once you're up, help us set a timer on our HUDs for 25 minutes repeating so that we have something to remind us of when to change flares. We are now going to pop new flares for ourselves and the lizards."

[hops]

"My ankle's pretty minor. Maybe leave the totem for when someone's wo- ow! Fine..."

Mako realized that it's actually a bit hard to walk now that her adrenaline level leveled off a bit.

Ratodx takes care of it himself if needed.
