Aand it's here. I tried my best not to make it look like it was just describing actions. Therefore, some things happened that weren't part of the rolls.
------------
Turn 163 ------------
Players: RTTAI(3}: I practice shooting fireballs into the distance to learn to use my ring better.
-----------------------------------
I'll fashion us some melee weapons from whatever scrap metal is laying around (keeping overshots)... hopefully I can salvage some raw materials from the various exploded vehicles.
[AI] Help Qwer'Ty
I'll attempt to form a TK bubble around Kashyyk to get him into the truck. Then do a little scouting in my own personal bubble.
Therefore, I summon my old karate instructor (from RL) to teach my steel self Karate
[AI] I attempt to use my regeneration to get rid of the turtle shell. Then practice running.
As my action, I'll do some investigation with the Rad-Man to check if the virus is causing trouble somewhere on the planet and what the Jags are up to.
I greet the strange new guy with the manliest of all greetings, a small nod. Then I get some warm clothes from the truck's cabin and try to get rid of my headache.
Work hard on multi-tasking! I MUST IMPROVE!!!
RTTAI:(3) I keep myself warm and fit by exercizing agility.
Having been helpful enough(much more than I had hoped for or even wanted), I think that I should look into this virus further, and ensure that if I do have it, I don't spread it. If it is unknown, it would probably be better to at least avoid actions that might transmit it, as a precaution.
Allied NPCs: Remain where it is.
Neutral NPCs: Get a flashlight, do some push-ups.
Go back into the truck and fix anything that is fixable, then start the engine.

----------------
Wayside V. Temporary camp some distance north of "Andrea's Furnace". Qwer'Ty sat quietly near the hauler, examining his skin and trying to sense the virus in his body. There was nothing. From what he knew of the virus, that was likely a good sign. Chaoticag did his best to help, but after the first three minutes he was merely distracting. He even ripped up his gauntlets - accidentally, of course - trying to show Qwer'Ty the effects the dormant virus was having on his skin, but it wasn't necessary. Qwer'Ty thanked him anyway and got up, deciding to think things over while he walks around.
People were busy around the temporary camp. Some took his advice to heart - Zako's drones were running around in mindboggling patterns, seeming to play tag. Upon closer inspection though, they appear to have just gone crazy. There goes Z-One, slamming into Frelock at full speed, causing him to lose control of the bubble he used to carry Kashyyk. The bubble goes pop, audibly, and the iron man slumps to the ground like a ragdoll. There's Z-Two, tripping over LASD as he tried to meditate on something. Z-Three and Z-Four suddenly stop and fall to the ground - that's Frelock's rocky fist working against Z-One's face. Qwer'Ty shakes his head, muttering to himself - "
How the hell did these people even come this far?" His thoughts are interrupted by Neo doing a double-backflip from the truck's platform, landing next to him, stumbling, and hitting his head on the fuel tank as he falls back. Qwer'Ty sighs and continues to walk.
The events don't become less disturbing as the time passes. Korora stopped gathering loose scrap from the ground, and sat down to, for some reason, bang his fists together. The knuckles are already red-hot, but Qwer'Ty refrains from interfering - after all, who knows what an obsessed robot might be up to. Still, what of the virus? From what he gathered, the best way not to infect someone if you do have the virus would be to refrain from biting or scratching them. Sounds easy enough. Muffled half-russian expletives attract his attention to the truck's cabin - Janna seems to have gone into a repair frenzy, gutting perfectly working systems to somehow fix the other ones. Behind her, Jay Kayell sits in the back seat, fully clothed, and bangs his head against the cabin wall with a very determined look on his face. Qwer'Ty hastened to turn away - if he allowed his mind to try and analyze what he saw, he'd likely soon be banging his head against something as well. He was just turning to look in another direction when something near him exploded into flames, momentarily knocking him out.
When Qwer'Ty woke up, someone was sitting beside him. Judging by him being invisible, Qwer'Ty recognized Boksi, who promptly apologized for hitting him. Word after word, they engaged in dialogue which made Qwer'Ty understand some things. No matter how strange or out-of-place the action, somehow it all made sense here. It turned out that Korora was trying to forge weapons, but ended up forging a pair of spiked knuckles onto his fists. Jay Kayell was curing his headache with a "kill fire with fire" strategy, and it worked. What made these people come this far wasn't just luck or divine blessing - despite all their oddities, they managed to pull through on determination and cooperation. Having a good idea of what waited for them, Qwer'Ty hoped it would be enough.
Kashyyk's mind. Virtual landscape. Quite bored of just walking around, Kashyyk concentrates. However bleak this landscape looks, it is just a portion of his mind - he should be in control here! With that thought, he tried to remember his life as it was before the adventure, before he found himself on the floor of the Cube. Vague thoughts entered his mind... family... war... gigantic floating base... martial arts instructor... donuts... wait! An idea dawned on Kashyyk, and he focused his thoughts. He tried to bring out the image of his old instructor, the one that, as he remembered, has taught him karate. Bringing the power of his mind forth, Kashyyk forces the image to materialize!
-
Uhhhh. I should've known. Standing in front of him was a very familiar-looking contraption, slightly resembling a solarium. Across the top lid, bright letters in a jagged "action movie" font read: "
VR INSTRUCTORmodel 30R911Q" A very hi-tech-looking VR helmet was resting on a small shelf on the side of the machine, along with a shiny disk case. Picking the disk up, Kashyyk receives another surprise.
-
Ca.. Capoeira?! Whatever his memories seemed to be, they likely were no more true than his old instructor and his karate lessons. Seeing no alternative, Kashyyk lies down into the machine, inserts the disk into a slot on the lower half with a suddenly familiar motion, puts on the helmet and lowers the lid. He is immediately thrust into a bewildering conflagration of images and sensations that seems to last all of two seconds. A brief glance at the timer above him seems to contradict that though, reading 3 hours 30 minutes of training time. Feeling unusually tired, Kashyyk opens the machine and takes the helmet off. His body is covered in sweat, which is strange for an iron man, but not too strange considering the other circumstances. For some reason, despite the experience Kashyyk feels that the training is incomplete. The nanodisk ejects from the slot with a whirr, and Kashyyk takes it out. It reads: "
Base Alpha personnel only. Capoeira Training: Disk One". After several minutes of searching for the subsequent disks, there are none to be found.
------------
Background: [4+2] The cold wind gradually abates, letting the morning sun's rays warm everyone up. Despite first thinking his regeneration failed to work, Rooster notices that it worked in reverse - his remaining horselike parts are gradually turning turtle. After a brief examination of the truck in the aftermath of Janna's repair efforts, LASD sums it up as "could be worse". Cabin heating, weight stabilizers, tire pressure control, smart AWD, and most of the usually neat devices like the speedometer and fuel gauge have been rendered useless. On the other hand, there is now a way to manually flood the cabin with foam, the truck can go in reverse as fast as it can go forward, and has an automagically controlled low-rider-like suspension. And the claxon is what turns the headlights on now. Neat.

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 sword): +2 to damage, +1 to attack, -1 agility.
Parameters (core 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.
Can heal wounds.
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.

And then Zako's hurricane, aided by a mysterious force, levelled it completely. All players are here.
Sub-area 4: Saramrakust Kosak. A great engraved slab of hard white stone east of the Furnace, that is the top of a buried obelisk that stands over the grave of the dwarf Kosak Sidasin Lokumzuden.

Fusiliers' camp "Wildcat": A small military camp set up amidst the hills in the large valley. Something terrible might have happened there.
