Turn 152 ------------
Players: [RTTAI:{5}]: I try to seize control of the eye using my ring.
i take all the small items i have, one by one, and start using my shrapnel self to explode them hoping to slow down. of course, i won't be holding the object ( otherwise i would to nothing) but just touching it, and i will try to explode them in a way that will hurt me the least ( like, for example, using that heavy gauss gun as shield). just before th end, if i haven't slowed down enough already, i'll just try a biger explosion.
I'll wait for bits of the eye (e.g. tentacles) to materialize, and then slice them off.
[AI]: I TK Blast the Eye.
[RTTAI:{2}]: I get into the truck and wait.
I will reach into some unfathomable depth of my psycic power, and feel the terror of Andrea from afar. I then reach out with every last vestige of my mental strength, and envelop him in the protection of a TK bubble, and bring him safely to the ground.
I TK heal Janna's leg back on.
[AI]: Grab Boksi and make a run for it.
I think I'll go with Typoman's suggestion (Welcome to the forums by the way) and look for fire extinquishers or something similar and empty them at the insubstantial fire beast. As I have no free hands I set down my mechanics kit, here where the eye doesn't roam.
I use my Nightmare Fuel ability on the eye, come hell or high water!
I sprint to simon, borrow his machine gun, return to the eye and open fire!!! If simon says no then I drag him with me to show him the eye so he can shoot it.
[RTTAI:{6}]: Slam the pedal to the metal and try to ram the Hauler into the Eye.
Allied NPCs: 
Do nothing.
Neutral NPCs: Helps Janna.
Gets a hold of herself.

Wayside V; southern hemisphere; unidentified large valley; near the remains of a mercenary convoy. Firmly holding the hysterical Janna, Simon patiently waited while Kashyyk was working his magic on the severed leg. The magic didn't work too well though; with Janna's constant movements, attaching the limb was a painfully slow process that took all of Kashyyk's concentration. When he finally finishes, the leg looks no better than a few minutes before - charred and broken. It is, however, firmly attached to its rightful place, even if it doesn't look like it's ever going to be usable again. Seeing that Janna has finally accepted her state, Simon carefully lifts her off the ground and carries her to the waiting truck.
Suddenly, the truck's exhaust pipes spout flame, and the vehicle begins rapidly accelerating! Simon and Kashyyk are left standing in the expanding cloud of dust kicked up by its wheels.
Inside the Heavy Hauler. Still somewhat disoriented, Neo flips through some control pages on an MFD to his right. The amount of incomprehensible acronyms he encounters is staggering, nobody in their right mind would design a control layout so utterly unintuitive! Then again, this is a
military truck. Starting to lose interest, Neo casually flips through a few more pages and presses a few harmless-looking buttons on the touchscreen. A red window that looks like a warning pops up, but he immediately dismisses it, barely looking at its contents. Suddenly, the hauler's twin-turbo V12 roars up! Neo's delicate hearing sense is viciously hammered by the sound, forcing him to let go of the controls and stop his ears in an attempt to retain his consciousness!
A few seconds pass. Then, without warning, the truck's gearbox shifts and Neo feels a sudden lurch of acceleration. More instinctively than consciously, he grabs the steering wheel of the speeding vehicle and steers it away from the big chunk of rock that protected it from the blast earlier. Thankfully, the ground in front of him is flat and smooth now, and Neo has no other option but to steer the truck straight and hope for the best.
Wayside V; unidentified large valley; a nondescript hill two clicks north of the mercenary camp. Rooster clearly sees the futility of the team's efforts to harm the eye. It was shrugging off or ignoring pretty much everything they threw at it, and kept going for its target. Putting two and two together, Rooster clearly sees the only viable option. Madly dashing past the eye, he grabs at the air in the last place he thought he saw Boksi, and tries to make a run for it. Miraculously, his grab yielded not only air. But, quite unfortunately, the six all-groping hands have gripped Boksi in all the wrong places. Furiously struggling against the sudden invasion of his
very personal space, Boksi is forced to abandon his attempt at controlling the eye, and resorts to a powerful jab at Rooster's hideous jaw. Very surprised by the sudden force applied to him by an invisible fist, Rooster grunts, lets go of his comrade, and they both entangle in each other's limbs and fall to the ground in a convoluted knot reminiscent of the aftermath of a drink-heavy night spent playing Twister - to the right eyes, that is. With Boksi still invisible, Rooster can't even begin untangling himself, out of fear of hurting, or being hurt by him.
Rooster's fall would be hilarious if it wasn't for the circumstances. Of all the remaining team members, Korora is the only one standing ready to fight. Zako has run (well, slithered) away, Chaoticag seems to have passed out, Jay Kayell and LASD haven't appeared yet, and there's no sign of Frelock. Knowing that rashly attacking the monster will do no good, Korora keeps standing guard, clenching the Ashcraver in his powerful fists. But the fiery eye does not move. Its tentacles barely show from its body, and its dark pupil is almost closed, as if it is sleeping. For a brief moment, Korora considers a surprise attack on the unsuspecting enemy, but the experience of the previous worlds has taught him enough to know better than that. He decides to wait. And his decision proves correct soon enough.
The eye's pupil suddenly widens, the flames around it flare into protuberous rings! The radiant heat almost makes Korora step back, but his armor resists it well. The raging flames pour out into the air around the eye, and form a glowing sphere of searing fire around it! The dark pupil shows through the flame, and the crown of tentacles passes through it unhindered, but the sphere is obviously designed to protect. Wary of this new form, Korora circles around the eye and positions himself between it and the two entangled teammates, hoping to, if anything, buy them enough time to run away. The eye turns to face him, ready to attack.
Suddenly, a cloud of dust
screeches to a halt right behind the eye. The mechanical roar of the engine diminishes, turning to a barely audible purr of the idling diesel. Pneumatics give off their strained sigh as the compressed air escapes through the brake valves, its job done. The dust settles, revealing the rugged shape of the heavy hauler. Neo has arrived to the scene.
Shortly afterwards, a bone-clad figure drops from the side of the flatbed, kneels on the ground, and kisses the crystallized dirt. That was one hell of a ride for Gantolandon.
Back near the remains of the mercenary convoy. Still somewhat shocked (and appalled) by the truck's sudden departure, Simon and Kashyyk walk slowly along the trail it left. LASD has joined them on the way after he abandoned his fruitless attempts to find one of the fire extinguishers - they must have all been taken to the convoy, and went with it when it blew. A few minutes later, they notice a shape rapidly approaching them from the direction they're heading to. A brief look confirms that it's Zako. When he approaches them, they learn of the situation at the hill, and decide to make haste. Kashyyk begins to recount his adventures to Zako as they go.
Suddenly, Kashyyk pauses mid-sentence. He looks at Zako, then at LASD. They both seem to have noticed something, too.
All of the team members have felt something at that moment - a sharp pang for some, a mild sting for others. Back at the hill, the air is torn apart by a piercing shriek! Even unconscious, Frelock screams in pain, unable to tolerate the feedback. Even the fiery eye shivers slightly from the effect.
In Kashyyk's eyes, a tiny yellow glint in the north begins fading rapidly, flickers for a moment, and is gone.
------------
Background: [1+2] Shocked by the sudden feeling, nobody is quite able to notice anything about the surroundings. Straining his memory, Neo finally manages to remember what was the red warning he so carelessly dismissed.
""Warning! No dynamometer supports detected! Proceed with test?"" ------------

Artifacts:
Description: A massive, massive, MASSIVE sword. It is three meters long, 1'3'' (~40cm) wide, and dazzingly bright. Its fine steel has been polished to reflect light like a mirror. Its one edge is curved, jagged at the hilt, the other is straight and so sharp it could probably slice adamantine blocks like salami. Down the center of the sword, which is at least 2'' thick, runs a hollow slit 3'' wide, in which yeat another, smaller and straighter sword is concealed. The entire surface of both swords, except of course the sharp cutting edges, is finely engraved with uncountable images, among which the launching of the Challenger, world war II, a nuclear explosion, a trainwreck, and a rotary excavator. The hilt itself (being at the same time the hilt of the smaller sword) is decorated with gold and emeralds you can only assume you've taken from someone, arranged in beautiful patterns, and the handle is woven with three lines - one is a scaly snake with two small rubies in the eyes, and two seem awfully like DNA strands. You get a feeling you could decipher the human genome if you looked closely enough. The guard of the hilt is exquisitely detailed as well, but right down the senter of it, spanning the breadth of the sword, is a solid rectangular golden plate, with the single word: "ASHCRAVER" deeply embossed onto it. The entire thing is so immeasurably brilliant, you almost don't want to touch it fearing it'll stick to your hand and corrupt you like some magic ring. Overcoming this fear, you pick it up. Despite its size, it is relatively lightweight, relatively, of course, to anything else so large and made of steel. The hilt of the smaller blade has a folding guard that makes the weapon look like an overgrown sai.
Parameters: Full blade: +2 to damage, +1 to attack, -1 agility. Small blade: +1 to damage.
Known Details: "The Ashcraver seems to accumulate the energy released by the deaths it causes. The process is admittedly rather slow, but has good uses.
In mech form, Korora can unsheathe the sword by shouting ""ASHCRAVER! MAXIMUM POWER!""
The sword has an AoE ranged projectile attack activated by shouting ""RAIN OF PAIN!"""
Description: The ring consists of a toroidal adamantine core surrounded by a shell of tempered steel with thin bands of gold along the rims of the ring. Set into an adamantine frame on its top is a Star Sapphire imbued with the dark soul of a Greater Demon, under absolute control of the wearer. The steel surface of the ring is covered by three hundred tiny tiles of granite, engraved with images of various creatures, all being dead.
Parameters: Applies a -1 penalty to using Fire and Darkness manipulation for every active effect already applied. Current penalties: -2 Darkness.
Known Details: "
The wearer of the ring may call onto the soul of the demon, which can manipulate darkness and fire - anything from direct projection to creating sentient forms to giving protection against.
The wearer can also give an order to summon a creature mad with rage (any creature from the DF world you have seen), which will use up one or several of the stone tiles, depending on the power of the creature. The tiles may be restored, but only through personally killing sentient creatures with bare hands and absorbing their essence with the ring, which also adds that creature to the ""summonable creatures"" list.
The price to pay for all this power is a constant aura of darkness that any living being will feel (and will react accordingly), and the wearer may, under critical stress, give in and become controlled by the trapped demon soul."
Description: An odd-looking gnarly stick made of iron and steel. The many wrinkles and crevices on its surface are ever so slightly glowing.
Parameters: No quantifiable effects.
Known Details: The staff feels special, capable of doing wonrous things. Some of those things include: summoning a small lightning that seems to charge the staff, when being hit against the ground; launching a spark of electricity that explodes in a sparkling firework-like burst, on giving a generic mental command.
Description: (Universal Radiowave Manipulator) A hexagonal reflective box, rougly a foot across and 10cm thick.
Parameters: No quantifiable effects.
Known Details: It can receive, process, transmit, focus, and disperse energy waves over a rather wide electromagnetic spectrum. Can work as a radio or a mini-microwave. Contains a battery that can be recharged by applying any electricity to the surface.
---------
Locations: Planet Wayside V: The planet seems to be barren as a whole. The sky is green here, and the air is cold. Or maybe it's just autumn here.
Large Valley: A rather dull and barren, though very large, rocky valley covered by reddish clay soil with patches of some unknown weeds or moss. Filled with broken rock and debris. Sloping mountains or plateaus many kilometers tall seem to surround it. A relatively narrow pass leads into the Vast Plain.

Sub-area 2: Where your truck was destroyed by an aerospace fighter (and later rebuilt, driven off elsewhere and crashed again). The disabled Wolf Trap is here.

Vast Plain: An enormous plain connected to the large valley by a relatively narrow passage. Its ground is different from that of the valley, but you don't know what it is yet. Might be a former ocean bottom.
Fusiliers' main camp: A small military camp set up amidst the hills in the large valley. Mechs patrol its perimeter. All of you are at a spot some distace away from it.
"Overlord"-class Dropship "Bullrun": A big egglike spaceship designed to go to and from a planet's surface. Armed with several turrets and protected by thick armor. It's been attacked on its descent and is undergoing repairs.
