Have pushbot load another standard round in the main cannon, then shoot the angry ent again. (just making sure, but the EdPC uses tech to shoot instead of guns)

Check on the mushroom to see how much it's grown. We drove for quite a while before we got to this place.

Keep firing the turret at the big tree thing, this time try shooting it in the face.

[7][12][5+7][5+5][Burt's turret is out of ammo]
The two side turrets open up on the downed tree, tearing up wood and asphalt in a spray of lead. The top of the tree is reduced to scattered splinters and the rest stops moving. Burt puts the rest of his magazine worth of rounds into the body, just to be sure.

Back the hell up till I'm out of reach of the tree's arms&weapons.

Use biorhythm tracker to keep track of where it is through the cloud and help with aiming, share this info with teammates if requested.

Weakness Analysis protocols is now at lvl 2: increase damage dealt by 1 die level, + gain advantage on to-hit.

Right arm: shoot ferromagnetic accelerator. Left arm: shoot with goop thrower, aim at leg/foot to try and slow it down or make it stumble so it can't reach us.

Hmmm...looks like it all worked out.

As the dust settles and Yagyu gives the now dead and already withering tree a few good kicks, the group notices the scrub wearing men gesturing to them from across several empty lanes and a parking lot. The one in the front is waving widely with one arm while the others stand at alert around him, their weapons not exactly pointed at you, but still all in your rough direction.

If the mushroom has grown, and its somewhat questionable that it has at all, its by an amount quite difficult to make out. Very small.

Yep.  Ghosts.  Summon a swarm of antlered ghost ants to batter/eat through the opening until the hardsuit can fit.  Then... start rushing through the tunnels and up floors until reaching ground level/outside.  Skim past people, and presumably use the hardsuit's lights.  This thing has lights, right?  If not, ghost glowworms or something.  Ghosts solve all problems!

"Found the damn nerds Wonbert, I'm going to keep them busy till you and your 5 tons of power armor ghostiness get here."

SAM will jump into the pile of nerds and grab as many as she can with hands and tentacles alike to act as meat shields against the armed men, objects to yet and use as bludgeons and last but not least crunchy health packs if things get dice while she sorts through them to find the one nerd they're looking for. Making sure to not eat him.

[12][2][2][
Wilfred summons ghosts. He figures he'll need a good amount of them so he puts some oof into the attempt. What he doesn't quite realize is exactly how many people have died here...and how many ghosts there are to summon. Outside, SAM attempts to make a running leap from the roof to the crowd of nerds below. She sails gracefully but nowhere near far enough. She lands with a crunch on the concrete [-1 flesh] and picks herself up like a trash bag full of burst sausages and broken glass.  She's just getting ready to make a half formed dash towards the nerd brigade when a literal geyser of ghostly forms erupts from the roof of the building she was just on. The semi-corporeal horde spray outward in a growing mushroom cloud of nightmares as more start pouring out from inside, smashing through windows and cracking the concete until the building is literally split in half.

The nerd crew and basically everyone nearby stops for a moment to stare in dumbfounded amazement at what appear to be the underworld vomiting up out of the depths of a hospital block.

Use the camera on my phone to zoom in on the tree and see if it dropped any valuable stuff, not getting out of the car unless I need to.

"Nice shooting gents, very solid work. EdPC, if you need more ammo let me know and I'll see if I can get some in bulk and convert it."

Then Yagyu turns to the group of men, waves and shouts back:

"Greetings, friends! I hope you don't mind that we did some gardening, these weeds are getting out of control!"

If they still seem friendly, slowly approach while keeping my arms away so as to make clear I'm just here to talk. If I arrive unmolested, let the diplomancing begin!

"Well met! My name is Yagyu and we are here to investigate Neo Detroit and see if we can figure out what is going on here and how to stop it. May I be so bold to ask who you are?"

Does EdPC have any reloads for the side guns, or will we need to buy/make some new?

...Assuming Wil didn't just become one of the ghosts, uh, try and climb up and out of the hospital.  Maybe use the boosters to gets some height, if the sky is visible.  Then try to locate the nerds and their guards, and go head over there.  Melt anyone armed, with the ACA.

"Oh, fucking fuck Derp!  I swear, I didn't mean to summon that many, they just kinda... came out.  Fuckers, did I just accidentally kill the building?"

(The EDPC does have reloads for its guns, but I honestly forget how many. They were described as ammo boxes through, so maybe a quick search will reveal them. Should be in a post near the beginning of this)

Bob and Yagyu advance slowly towards the men in scrubs and manage to reach them without being shot. Though, it should be said, the men do seem pretty damn wary of the two of them. Which, considering they're a tentacled crocodile in power armor and what looks like an alien war machine, should probably come as no surprise.

"Well met! My name is Yagyu and we are here to investigate Neo Detroit and see if we can figure out what is going on here and how to stop it. May I be so bold to ask who you are?"


"They call us the Orderlies" says the apparent leader of the group, "Though we don't really have a collective name. We work up the block at the old hospital. Mostly patient care, sometimes," He hefts his rifle, "security. Thanks for the assist back there, by the way."

He shoulders his rifle and gestures to the men behind him. The group nods and starts heading north, leaving the leader behind.

"So, you here to speak to the doc? He's said more than once that he was connected to that." He nods towards the red zone and its constant storm.

The tree dropped a set of armor and a club! But they look a bit big for Burt.




QUICK! SAM will bite the head of a guard and proceed to vore him like she's a Sonic OC on Deviantart while everyone is distracted by the ghost geiser so she can heal, now it's an even fight!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
[2,4][5v3]
SAM charges over to the cluster of guards and does a leaping, open mouthed dive onto the nearest one's head. She manages to get his entire head, and about half his chest into her gaping maw. The man, arms pinned to his sides, begins doing what everyone seems to do when this sort of thing happens: Run around screaming. Its probably a rather comical sight, in a horrifying way: the blind scrambling about as SAM gnaws on his armor. She doesn't kill him in one go, in fact he isn't even that seriously injured, but he really can't get away either.

The other guards see this and decide that the best course of action is to pretend its not happening and run for the motorpool, nerds in tow.

...Assuming Wil didn't just become one of the ghosts, uh, try and climb up and out of the hospital.  Maybe use the boosters to gets some height, if the sky is visible.  Then try to locate the nerds and their guards, and go head over there.  Melt anyone armed, with the ACA.

Wilfred rockets out of the newly created crater and lands on the surface, looking around and shooing ghosts away from him. He spots SAM and the fleeing guards and immediately takes to the air before leveling the ACA on them.
[1] This is secretly Xan playing this character, isn't it? [2,3,1,1][4]
The ACA disgorges a dense spray of horrible dark green corrosive fluid. The stuff splatters all over the guards, the nerds, and several other random people nearby. They all immediately vanish in a cloud of screams and thick yellowish smoke. However, there is one bright side: The screaming keeps going. That means that some of them must still be alive! Horribly burnt and maybe dying, but Currently alive!

That is what we call technically a success!

"FSHS SSFH WIFSHD!"

SAM will go agaisnt her late mother's advice and shallow without chewing, then she'll try to find the screaming melty dude who looks the most like the nerd she's searching for and try to un-melt him with her medikit. But not before GTFOing from the gas melty cloud with the nerd in tow of course, here's to hoping he won't slip through her fingers...literally

"What?!  You've got him so we're--wait, fuck, fuck, that's a guard?  Oh my fucking--Fuck!  Derp!  I thought you fucking Derp had him already!  Fuck, fuck, how do you treat acidic cleaning fluid?!  He's melting!  Fuck Derp, fuck Derp, fuck Derp!"

Uhhhh so I think nerd's probably gonna die, so... stay nearby, shoot anyone who comes near or looks violent (not SAM), and if the nerd kicks the bucket, summon his ghost jmmediately.  And keep it.  I guess.

"Why yes, if you could bring us to him that would be most wonderful, we'd love to have a chat with the good doctor."

Follow them to the hospital. Once there, request an audience with the doc. On the way there, ask them to tell us about themselves: who are they, what do they do, why are they here in the orange zone?
