[The Lupanian]

Try to be sneaky.  Don't attack the wasps unless one is going to attack me.  Play deadish until the pain diminishes.  If a wasp tries to attack me, try to club it first.

(10) A wasp heads for Thag, but he lays so still that it passes him over. When it gets dangerously close, he snatches it out of the air and bites it's head of with his teeth. It tastes an uncomfortably close to pork.

_{"Oh shit."}
Slowly crawl out of the room, if any wasp things come near my blow smoke from my cigar at them to hopefully make them go away.

Burt lurches towards the door.(10) A wasp buzzes towards him, but he throws up a cloud of smoke, blinding it. It smashes into the floor beside him. He finishes it off by crushing it with his fist.

1 projection: try to make Thag feel less pain. Pain is in the mind, after all.

Spoiler: Sherry Bobbins: Special Human (Biomorhic Parasite) Handler (click to show/hide)

Name: Sherry Bobbins
Race and Profession: Special Human (Biomorhic Parasite) Handler
Description: A girl in her thirties with immaculate blonde curly hair. Wears frilly dresses and always carries an expensive-and-fragile-looking umbrella with a spiral pattern, despite spending most of her time underground.
Backstory: Lead a privileged life as a bureaucrat (a job her parents got her) before being assigned to this expedition. Though many saw being assigned to this expedition as punishment, she sees it as no different than any other assignment. Believes in her greatness and the greatness of humanity. Friendly and polite but distant. She feels no need to prove herself or show off despite how much she owes to her parents, but will try to ensure that whoever challenges her will think twice before doing so again.
Special ability: You can now alter yourself in the same capacity as the parasites, but each time you do you risk damaging your mind.

(2) Thag feels a sharp stab of pain flash through his body (1) causing him to pass out cold.

Frank noted the growing problem in the neighboring room - a problem that a man in a hardsuit would have little concern with.

Silently thanking his cautious nature that had led him to purchase such protective equipment, Frank runs into the room to perform rescue operations. Seeing as Thag is either unconscious or very close to death, and near the door, Frank prioritizes dragging him out first. If time permits, he runs over to Alice and starts to drag her out as well.

Spoiler: Frank (click to show/hide)

Name: Franklin Walker
Race and Profession: Ordinary Human Tinker
Description: Looks extremely average as far as humans go. Medium length dirty-blonde hair. A little shorter than six feet. Has a fancy mustache that he likes to twirl when getting excited about machines.
Backstory: Frank grew up in Nede, and has only rarely seen the surface before, never for extended periods of time. Due to his natural proclivity of working with machines, he quickly joined the Tinker guild, and was just as quickly assigned to this mission by the guild. Equal parts earnest and practical, he decided that to ensure his survival on this mission he would buy a full body hardsuit so he didn't croak before finding cool old-world relics.

(2)Frank is cut off by a buzzing hell as wasps surge towards him. (8) He manages to swat away the wasps, preventing any from stinging him.

Create a 2 focus, 1 projection lightning field around me that will electrocute any wasps that enter the field. Attempt to stand up after I've cast my spell.

Name: Alice
Race and Profession: Ordinary Human Explorer

(10, 7+1= 10 & 8 Focus)(8+1=9 Projection) Alice creates a blue sphere of energy around herself. (7) The wasps become enraged and try to swarm her. The first 4 wasps go right through the boundary of the sphere, frying themselves before the rest catch on and divert their path.

Name:Nora
Race and Profession:Arthropod Underhiver

Do I know anything about these creatures? If more attack, slice at them

(6+1=7) Nora swings her hatchet at the nearest wasp, clipping its wing. (3+1 defense) Another wasp zooms in and plants a sting directly on her sternum. (1 health) The pain causes her to pass out instantly.

Wield knife and slash at the wasps. Swinging a greatsword around probably won't be helpful.

Name: Vaiaerioun
Race and Profession: Avian Coldblood
Description: A young and flighty crow, almost completely black. Fond of shiny things and people, though she thinks humans are a little lame.

(10) Like a whirlwind, Vaiae dances around the room, knife in hand. She crushes the grounded wasp under her boot, and quickly dispatches 3 more with dizzying precision. (1 defense) However, in her fury, she fails to notice as one of the wasps gets behind her. It lands on the back of her head and jams its stinger directly through a gap in her hardsuit. (1 health) She too passes out in an instant.

Get the anti-toxin and antihistamines out from my doctors bag and get ready to operate on anyone who needs their shots.

Spoiler: Crass (click to show/hide)

Name: Crass Beakerton
Race and Profession: Special Human (Spectral Aspect) Doctor
Description: A pale man in a stained, unwashed doctor's coat. A brass plate has been hammered into his face, covering the entire right side and the entirety of his jaw. A metal hinge connects to a swiveling mouthguard with a built-in air filter that is kept in place a leather belt and buckle. Crass carries around a large satchel with bright red stitches were ever he goes, the handle of his baton peaking out from the edge of the bag.
Backstory: Born a slum rat, Crass joined up with a small splinter group that was apart of one of the larger gangs Nede, acting as an errand boy and dealer for some of the more low-level drugs. But the group leader took an interest in young Crass, and when she saw his steady hands, quick wit, and his skill with a needle and thread, she knew Crass could do more than just a dealer. A loan from the bank and the upper echelon was barely enough to cover the cost of sending young Crass off to apprentice at one of the local medical guilds. Crass returned home with hope and pride in his eyes, hope, and pride that was snuffed out the second he took a step into his old home in the same moment a bomb planted by a rival gang went off. He came to in the hospital, finding out that most of his face was burnt off by the explosion and was stuck with a bill. Worse, a statement form the bank came and apparently as the sole survivor of the attack, his Guardian's debts was being transferred to him, including the ones to the the Syndicate. Stuck paying off a multitude of debts, Crass has grown to be choleric fellow, one who has as many cares to give as he does dollars to spend.

(6+3=9) With quick and deliberate haste, Crass moves about the room, administering anti-venom to each of the victims. (8+2=*9*, 9+2=*9*, 4+2=6, 2) Thag and Alice are both feeling almost completely better. Nora is awake, but still very slugging. However, with Vaiae, Crass isn't able to administer the anti-venom through the hardsuit.

Save Alice from the swarm. If nobody else succeeds and time permits, also pull Thag out.

Spoiler: Arp (click to show/hide)

Name:Automated Repair Product, or Arp.
    Race and Profession:Industrial Robot, Work Horse.
    Description:A vaguely humanoid, orange robot with a single red eye and a utilitarian design.
    Backstory:Originally a repair drone, "Arp" eventually attained sentience after being given a vague order to "Clean up the mess" after an office party just before the apocalypse. Those who gave the order are long dead, but Arp cannot ignore the order. Now that the office has finally collapsed from age and decay, Arp has wandered out into the shattered world on an almost certainly hopeless quest to finish "cleaning up the mess."

With both Thag and Alice seeming to be alright, Arp decides instead work on getting Vaiae out. (4+3 strength) He manages to get her out of the room, with some effort.

Two wasps remain. They both cling to the ceiling, out of range of melee attacks.

[Coolrune206]

With no one left to (fail to) save, Frank pulls out his revolver and gives shooting the wasps on the ceiling the ol' college try.

That won't be necessary.

When people search the corpse, they find some old dog-tags, which are illegible.

At this point, there's no new areas to explore. After Vaiae has been dealt with, you can leave, unless you still want to interact with the console.

I'm done, unless the bug meat looks tasty.

Also, I think Thag moved the dead body to the pile of other dead bodies.

Frank wasn't much of a medic, being much more proficient at fixing machines than humans, but due to a lack of the party's medical team helping Vaiae, Frank attempts to help where he can with her treatment, which seems to be by removing her hardsuit.

Spoiler: Frank (click to show/hide)

Name: Franklin Walker
Race and Profession: Ordinary Human Tinker
Description: Looks extremely average as far as humans go. Medium length dirty-blonde hair. A little shorter than six feet. Has a fancy mustache that he likes to twirl when getting excited about machines.
Backstory: Frank grew up in Nede, and has only rarely seen the surface before, never for extended periods of time. Due to his natural proclivity of working with machines, he quickly joined the Tinker guild, and was just as quickly assigned to this mission by the guild. Equal parts earnest and practical, he decided that to ensure his survival on this mission he would buy a full body hardsuit so he didn't croak before finding cool old-world relics.
