EVENT: There's something rotten in ProsperoArril Votekka (Glass) and Alagar the Shipwright (Madman198237)
Prospero, 722M30Arril quickly and smoothly draws Star's Touch, aiming and expertly striking the target in the middle of its back. The projectile enters the body with ease, but the blood is a thick and heavy black oil.
While the hooded man does not seems bothered by the wound, it causes him to stop, turning back with a nauseating sucking noise.
Now facing them, the two Perpetuals can see the face of the mastermind behind this whole affair.
A face composed of hundreds of maggots.
With another suction, the Slaught charges.
Alagar: (6 (Strength) + 5 (Ability) ) *5 + 10D6 (Heavy Weapon Melee) + 6D6 (Lightning Bolt) + 8D6 (Gravity Hammer) + 10 (Industrial Sledgehammer) + 10 (Kevlar Vest) = 55 + 33 + 22 + 30 + 20 = 160
Arril: (5 (Strength) + 6 (Ability) ) *5 + 10D6 (Marksmanship) + 20 (Star’s Touch) + 10 (Powder Pistol) + 5 (Flak Coat) = 55 + 42 + 35 = 132
Slaught: (10 (Strength) + 5 (Ability) ) *5 + 5D6 (Devourer) + 10D6 (Necrotic Maggots) + 5D6 (Obscene Regeneration) = 75 + 25 + 35 + 16 = 151
Warp rolls: 15 and 20...
Uh oh
With a revolting writhing, the Slaught jumps on Arril after a quick run, barely slowed down by the flood of bullets and shurikens aimed at him. Extending one of his arms twice its original length, the Maggot Man badly burns Arril on his elbow by its corrosive, necrotic mucus.
Fortunately, the Perpetual is saved from a gruesome death by Alagar, who move away the Slaught with a sledgehammer hit, followed by a much more conclusive lightning bolt.
Writhing even more, the Slaught attacks Alagar, who manages to grab (or at least touch) the arm of the Maggot man with its robe, and use its contact for his gravity hammer. Upon contact, he can feel through his psyker senses a cold and nefarious void where the soul should have been. Alagar cannot help but shivers in the middle of the fight.
Unfortunately, as the gravity hammer shreds the Slaught to dust, Alagar feels losing control on the Warp as its winds flow through his fingers. Out of control, Alagar can only watch helpless as the psychic winds eagerly rush towards him, ready to slash him... Until it suddenly disappears.
Somewhere in the galaxy, a distant relative of Alagar screams in pain as the aetheric winds cut through his body.
