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.

"Hunger for penetration? How vulgar."

Take a picture of the dead worm. Include the posing Thag for scale.

Can I use Telepathy to try to detect thinking things? If yes, then one projecting roll (or one focus and one projection, if I need focus for this) to check the corpses and my teammates for the thought pattern I saw in the parasites' minds. If I detect it in any of the corpses, then shoot them until it stops.

(1) Well, Sherry does connect with the parasite. One of the dying parasites sees the opening, and tries to leap into her head. as she tries to fight it off (2+2=4 Mind) well...

Spoiler: For Sherry's eyes only (click to show/hide)

You are, for now, a prisoner in your own body. You can try to fight it, but you may damage your mind in the process.

Meanwhile, your connection gives you insight into what these are. Essentially you know that these came from another plane of existence. The beast had no physical form before, and essentially had to hijack an existing physical from. You become vaguely aware that similar beings exist, but don't necessarily work the same way.

These things want to breed. They do so by implanting the maggots, which are basically eggs that have to hijack existing bodies.

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.

(1) You grab on to the wand, causing it to snap in half, and stick to your other hand in the process. You then focus in and try to waterjet the two halves off (2+1=3 focus). You're too frazzled by your current situation to cast the spell properly.

At this point, now that people can take a moment to look around, you notice that the left wall has a row of lockers. They definitely weren't obvious, and I definitely didn't tell you before because you didn't notice, not because I forgot to mention it.

Meanwhile, Sherry grunts and winces. She then draws her silenced pistol and aims it at Crass. (8 attack)(6 stealth) The bullet tears through the side of Crass's Neck. Crass gurgles and instinctively grabs at the wound. He doesn't know it was Sherry, but he knows it came from somewhere behind him.

[Coolrune206]

Frank did not notice Sherry fire on Crass and assumed that the gunshot was simply someone on the team finishing up one of the remaining enemies. Satisfied with the state of things, Frank moves over to begin examining the contents of the lockers.

Try to convince the parasite that its life expectancy will increase if it stops being hostile and hides the pistol. If it wants to survive longer, then it should jump out of Nora and into my body.

    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."
