A kitten begins meowing at you incessantly, giving you disadvantage on concentration tasks, like figuring out a planet sized map, finding your location on it, and getting any useful information from that.(
4)(2) Between the meowing, the pop-up ads, the banner ads, the spam holograms of princesses in need, whom only you can help, and a really funny skit about lice you found on SapceTube, you fail to locate yourself on the world map this round.
I go bug the other occupants of the building, trying to get them to help Alice out of the utility room.

Kit (Kitty Hive)Species: A litter of 8 kittens that are linked together into a single hivemind.
Species distinctives: This litter of kittens have had their brains linked since before birth, and are essentially a single mind spread across eight tiny bodies. They show near-human intelligence, and are able to operate independently or together as desired. Their maximum separation range has not been determined, but placing one of them in orbit with the rest left on the planet caused no negative effects, and they were still able to act cohesively with no noticeable delay. To facilitate communication each kitten has been given a collar with a small digital display that shows whatever text the kitten desires it to display, up to a maximum of 13 characters long.
Overall status: slightly deafened, until ears heal.
Quest objectives: Figure out where I am?
Inventory: collars with a digital display and neurolink to the wearer. each individual collar can display up to 13 characters at once.

Name: Mr: Zorak
Species: Fifth-Dimensional Imp
Species Distinctives: Fifth-Dimensional Imp’s are incredibly powerful beings capable of warping reality to their whims; from a human viewpoint, they appear to be nearly omnipotent, but there are actually quite a few limits to their abilities which the imps refer to as “The 3 Rules”
1: Imp’s are never allowed to say their name backwards or they’ll get banished.
2: Their powers have limits. (Decided by GM)
3: They always appear as a small humanoid male wearing a bowler hat.
Status: Happy
Quest: Have fun and mess with people.
Inventory: Bowler Hat, fashionable clothes and a glowing crystal golem. A focus that looks like a troll doll.
Snap fingers and use focus to create a wacky looking remote that has a bunch of funny and reality breaking functions.
After that, throw a pie in somebody’s face
A kitten begins meowing incessantly at you, giving you disadvantage on concentration checks, such as using complex transdimensional metaforces to adjust perceived quantuum states for chaotic, but controlled, alterations to the local space state. (1)(
6) Covered, head to toe, in banana cream (the funniest pie filling), you place your hands on your hips, stare at the kitten, wait the comedicly appropriate two seconds, open your mouth and lick the cream, then scowl and say "WHAT?" in a typically pet-owner annoyed fashion.
Name: Bowser
Species: Koopa
Species distinctives: Much larger than the average koopa, with claws on his fingers and toes, and dangerous looking white spikes dotting his large, green shell, and a flaming red floppy mohawk sits between two horns on his head. Able to breathe fire.
Status: Grouchy
Quest objectives: Establish dominance and authority on this planet and add it to my kingdom
Inventory: Two spiked bracelets on each arm and a spiked collar
Swat the remaining creatures out of the way with a snarl and get through the door to the inside
Since you are outside where the monsters are, you do not get disadvantage due to distraction at this point: (6) you swat the critters aside and kick the door in, snarling. Now, you are inside, but the door is kicked in. (3) you pick the door up and lean it at an angle against the door frame. It lists to one side, looking straight out of a Tim Burton movie, all bent aned mishapen and just not quite right. Also, that's not going to hold up to any pressure from the outside.
Eat that rusted lug nut, because it's clearly usefully holding the rim to the wheel, and that's what lug nuts do. I'll just park the cart, as it clearly needs a little fixing work before doing good work with it.
Think back. Have I seen an air compressor or an air piston anywhere? Any heavy machinery that I might be able to find one if I break it down?
Name: Geryon Vagante
Species: Poltergeist
Species Distinctives: Incorporeal creature with natural telekinetic abilities. Must possess some object to survive for more than a few minutes. Must occasionally consume objects, rendering them into ash, rust, or other high-entropy forms to regain energy. Innate radar sense capable of detecting and analyzing nearby objects.
Quest Objective: Form awesome body capable of retaking to the stars.
Inventory: Currently possessing a damaged cart with multiple flat tires and a broken bed.
Stuff:Two by four, metal pole, cinder block.
hmmm. You turn objects to rust (or etc) when you eat them. So, all the rusted nuts on the cart, plus all the bolts holding the frame together. So, now you have three possibly useful tires and a few bits of metal framing.
(4) you recall an image of a pile of appliances not too far from here. There are probably air compressors in there. Maybe for the cooling system from a refrigerator. What do you mean by air piston? Like, a pneumatic jack type thing?
"What the hell's going on outside and who's the guy blocking the door, I don't remember him being here earlier."
Greetings, I am Bob, the first of my kind and I am a Cy-Borg. You may call me Cy-Borg Bob, Borg Bob, or just plain . . . Bob. I will be leaving this world and it's space and prove that Cy-Borgs are the superior race over humans by destroying the interlopers who tried to destroy me. If anyone would like to join me I will be willing to offer a portion of my power to you. Currently I have elevated healing and adaption. If you do not want to be injected with nanobots at this time then I will respect your wishes. This is an open invitation.
As for what's going on outside. . . there are some unnatural monstrosities outside that seem to like flesh of any-kind. DO NOT LET THEM IN!
If the monstrosities are still banging at the door continue to hold against them. If not I go help Kit get Alice out of the Utility Room.
Name: Bob, the first of his kind
Species: Cy-Borg
Species distinctives: A experiment in bringing about the perfect cyborg, has the ability to slowly adapt to the environments and situations that come about. Has special nanobots that give elevated healing and if injected into another being gives them a bit of the abilities acquired(WARNING THERE MAY BE UNWANTED SIDE EFFECTS(to be determined by the GM).
Status: Nominal
Quest objectives: Prove that you are capable of dominating the planet and the surrounding space.
Inventory: Nanotube injection arm attachment(ALL ATTACHMENTS TAKE AN ACTION TO SWITCH OUT BEFORE USE)
You hear the big lizard out there, snarling, and the terrified sounds of skittering, squealing, and chittering, which begin to fade as the lizard sounds (or amphibian, I don't know what a Koopa qualifies as) stomp closer. Feeling as if the situation outside is more or less under control, all things considered, you step away from the door just in time for it to violently clatter inward. You look back, startled as the King Koopa grabs the bent metal sheet that was a door and mushes it into the hole in the wall that used to be a doorway. A few moments of processing, and you decide that you will have better luck fishing a human out of a hole than dealing with whatever just happened at the door. You walk over to the pantry and call down below: "Yoo hoo! Anyone alive down there?" Or words to that effect. (1) You bend over to get a better view, and naturally you also fall into the hole (1) ....riiiiight on top of the aforementioned human. Well done.
"Agh out out manthing! This is my mine lair hovel!"
Get smelly intruder out of my lair!
Name: Chatters
Species: Skaven Legally distinct rat creature
Species distinctives: Legally distinct rat creatures are known for backstabbery, cowardice, and general xenophobia luckily for his party Chatters happens to be something of a saint among his kind and as such usually only ticks off 2/3 of these boxes (The cowardice and xenophobia one) they also tend to have aversion to sunlight due to them spending most of there lives underground.
Quest objectives: Summon the Horned Rat Make a name for himself
Inventory:
"I'm not. Now piss off before I light up your rancid body oils."
Your argument is interrupted by the timely assistance of the Cyborg, right to the face. Alice is NOT having a good day, even by human standards. (1) look, that's three (1)s in a row here. Alice feels something in her shoulder snap, loudly and painfully. this has gone from a comedic misfortune with some physical obstacles to overcome to a full blown medical emergency ... again. Like, there might be internal bleeding, and not the fun kind.
And Chatters is now outnumbered, so he does what any good ratman would and slings back into the shadows, as far away from the annoying surface dwellers as possible.
Group Status updateThere are now 3 people in the basement, one of which is in a medical emergency (thanks, space snake eyes).
Everyone but the poltergeist is inside, but the front door is now more a suggestion than a command.
The imp is covered in delicious comedy
Kits helped ... ?
