Try to become conscious, if this is managed, try to find the blue maggot and take it out. While I attempt this, think about whether I’ve learned about any of these creatures; the blue maggot, the giant worm, or the tentacled humanoids in any biology classes in Underhive Academy

Remember to include your character sheet, Naturegirl. Wouldn't want you to die so soon, now would we? That's much more like something I would do.

[Egan_BW]

Cleave the creature between me and Nora! If I can, try to drag her back towards safety! Also, give a burst of lifeforce to help stabilize her.

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 swivieling 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 survior of the attack, his Guardian's debts was being transfered to him, including the ones to the the Syndicate. Stuck paying off a multidude of debts, Crass has grown to be choleric fellow, one who has as many cares to give as he does dollars to spend.

(6+2=8) Nora manages to open her eyes. She still can't really move on her own though.
(1) The maggot has thoroughly embedded itself.

You've never heard of these things.

"Aw fuck it missed, damn worm thing not wanting to die."
Then he sees the other monsters in the room.
"Oh shit this must be where the government dumps all their failed experiments, I'd record this with my camera if I hadn't dropped it in that puddle."

Burt readies his shotgun, just as the creature that got Nora bursts into the hallway. (7+2=9) Burt puts a blast directly into the creature's chest, obliterating it from the waist up.

"Oh dear. This is turning into quite the pickle."

Sherry does two spells in succession

First she tries to gain insight (6+1=7 projection)

Spoiler: insight (click to show/hide)

You don't get any clear "terms". You just get a series of feelings. At first you interpret it as "Penetrate", but you realize it's more like "Breach" or "Escape". You also get what can only be describes as "Hunger", but not in the usual sense. Not like an internal hunger, but a desire to consume everything.

Sherry then tries to scare the creatures off. (5+1=6 projection) The message gets sent, so to speak, but it doesn't really work. These creatures don't seem to have much of a concept of fear.

Yank on the club to stretch out the tendril as far as I can.  If I am winning the pulling contenst, stick the club between the door and the wall to hold the club in place, and pull on the door trying to keep the worm-thing's head stuck.  If the creature is winning the pull test, just let go of the club and let the tendril draw the club back to the monster's face.  After that, look through the pile of corpses for a suitable new club.

(8+4=*9*) Thag uses his club to gather the rest of the tendrils like spaghetti, then he wedges the club into the doorframe. The creature isn't totally pinned, but it doesn't have immediate use of most of it's tendrils.

Thag then goes over and picks up the sledgehammer from the dead excavators.

Reinforce the spell, I don't want the worm and its tendrils moving at all. Two more focus rolls.

Spoiler: Alice the full-time mage (click to show/hide)

Name: Alice
Race and Profession: Ordinary Human Explorer

(10, 3+1=4 focus) Alice manages to focus in on the spell, strengthening the bonds. However, she isn't able to actually maintain the spell's influence over the creature. As the creature starts to break free, she hurriedly tries again to reinforce the spell, however, in her haste, she misdirects it. Her wand becomes uncomfortably stuck to her hand and stops working. This causes the worm to break free from the spell.

Frank saw, with much distress, his new robot friend Arp getting swarmed. His initial panic is quickly overrun by rage at the concept of a machine being damaged. He charges towards Arp, screaming loudly and reloading his revolver as he runs. Once he gets to Arp he fires a bullet at each of the tendrils, careful to not damage his robot friend. He vaguely hopes that his hardsuit will keep him nice and safe from retaliatory attacks by the tentacles.

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.

Frank bounds forth, attempting to reload while he does so (5=1=6). He reaches Arp with a fully reloaded revolver. He fires on Arp's assailants (10). He skillfully places a round into each creature, knocking them all off his friend. some of the creatures don't seem to be all the way down, however.

Spoiler: Knight Without A Cause. (click to show/hide)

Name:Gigantic Frosted Knight/White Haired Knight/Frost Knight.
Race and Profession:Preserved Human Dead, Knight.
Description:

Giant of a knight, standing at 7ft0. White hair faintly pokes out from beneath a frostbitten helmet. Eye's relatively obscured, appear white and glazed over if one were to literally shove their head against the helmet.

Lean and toned underneath, skin is frostbitten and very pale.

Small muffled sounds occasionally leave her, might help decern their gender.
Backstory:Found encased in a block of ice within a deep cave by recruits of what were apparently her order. She hasn't spoken, since then, but she has notably seemingly taken it in stride. Having little to no memory of her past life.

This Knight dosent have a name noir any idea who she was, perhaps some record seeking could give her the answer. But for now, she's doing what she's supposed to do apparently. Protect the innocent, raid dungeons, the like.

Despite a clearly cracked and unstable mind, that seeks closure and purpose. She nonetheless continues without a true reason to live or a true purpose of her own.

Stats
Strength:2, Her muscles appear to have slightly atrophied, but overall she's not bad.
Dexterity:1, She's a bit stiff.
Mind:1, She dosent really speak ((though she is capable.)) noir does she seem entirely there, a bit worrying. (Not going Crazy)
Health:4, The pinnacle of well preserved, psychically at least. Being trapped in solid ice surprisingly can preserve things very well.
Skills
Melee:2, Her skills haven't left her yet it seems, muscle memory serves her well.
Medicine:1, Learned it quickly, had to, was the only way she could keep on going.
Projection (Casting):1, She has some remnant of lost casting ability.

The Frosted Knight had sat there, atop their mount stiff as a corpse. When that creature had emerged, there were so many feelings that they hadn't felt, had little to no memory of. Anger..despair, Utter Terror...a feeling of doubt in themselves and their abilities and they'd sat their atop their mount till now. As their allies were swarmed, as people without even a weapon to fight these foes in close range charged to protect others.

A helmet was touched, cracked and frosted with a hand.

Two feeling's intermixed.

Shame and something warm, a heat in their frozen rigid body, a desire that had them gripping their mount tight, their other hand grasping onto their Glaive.

The Desire to Protect.

Their beetle reared back, a gruff sound leaving unbreathing lungs.

"Hpmh!"

 Atop her icy blue beetle, the Frosted Knight charges alongside the brave Frank to assist the Robot! Pale eye's focus on the grand worm, she wills for shards of ice to appear from the ground and pierce its flesh! ((Going for projection!))

If possible drop a medkit nearby any injured allies!

((Sorry for the absence! Hopefully, I've come back in the nick of time!))

The knight follows Frank out to help their robot companion. However, see that Arp is in good hands, she turns her attention instead to the worm. (9+1=*9*) Thin needles of pale ice leap from the ground, piercing the worms flesh. The worm thrashes, and blue goo seems to be leaking from the wounds.

Cleave the creature between me and Nora! If I can, try to drag her back towards safety! Also, give a burst of lifeforce to help stabilize her.

(8+1=9 melee)(4+1=5 defense) She has her sword at the ready. Lashing out, she gouges the worms reforming mouth, noticing a twinge of blue as she does so. Small tendrils shoot out, but only snap at her hardsuit. She makes her way past the worm.

She reaches Nora, and carefully pulls the spider back into the hallway.

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.

Crass points to the Hybryd dragging the injured Arthropod.

"You, bring her over here. I'll deal with her."

Prep for surgery and try to stabilize Nora.

Crass sees the spider being dragged into the room, and immediately leaps into action (10). Within seconds, he has Nora's exoskeleton patched and mended. He goes to work with stitches and bandages, making liberal use of painkillers along the way. The painkillers hit Nora a bit harder than intended, leaving her stupefied, but stable.

"Friendly down. Requesting medic."

"The humanoids do not require heads. Aim center of mass."

Nora is being well taken care of, so Ares decides to help Arp.
(3+4=7) Ares looks down at the remaining creatures. Having the opportunity to get a close look, he notices that each one actually has a faintly glowing blue spot. He places a bullet in 2 of them, killing them, but the remaining two don't have a visible spot. He places two bullets in one, but the other manages to get up before he can get at it.

Arp finds his way to his feet, and retaliates with the axe (7). he manages to put the revived one back on the ground by chopping out it's feet, but he doesn't kill it.

The worm struggles to break free from where it was pinned (5). It loosens it's tentacles enough to lash out at Thag (2). Thag manages to avoid the tentacles, and decides to retaliate (10). Thag shoves the sledgehammer directly into the worms maw. Thag is covered in a massive gush of blue goo. The worm shutters, then falls still.

Satisfied that Arp is no being swarmed by tentacles, Frank checks his robot friend up and down for damage, noting anything that he'll have to try to fix in a moment or so.

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.
