Dibs on the spring boots!

Meta: Inform the others of the strange demise of the other fellow, and lead the way to the command room.

RW: Go check out the dagame the explosion did

FW: back to the bilge. Take artys spring shoes though.

[RedWarrior0]

Since Bowdown is dead... am I in?

No, _Divide by Zero_ is. I'm in after the next person dies, you're after me.

[Gatleos]

No, _Divide by Zero_ is. I'm in after the next person dies, you're after me.

And come on, a dwarf that doesn't have a barrel of ale, but DOES have SOAP!?!

Why do you think they dropped him in the middle of the ocean on a raft?

Actions

Meta: "Hmm, I kinda came here on accident. I stomped on the teleporter. Hop in my ride, the Gorden-Mobile,'s sidecar, and I'll try to find a way out of here." Try to find a way out of here, like a teleporter.

(...) YOU CAN'T FIND A WAY OUT OH GOD YOU'RE TRAPPED FOREVER. Actually there's a stairway in the center of the room but you don't notice it somehow.

Meta: Concentrate of observation roll.

(...) AGGGGHHHH, your head feels like it's going to explode! Suddenly, you see everything. Some kind of extrasensory sonar activates in your mind, and you see a shape surrounded by void.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Looks like you're at the top of that shape.

Meta: Inform the others of the strange demise of the other fellow, and lead the way to the command room.

(...) You inform the others of what you found in the control room and Monk follows you back there.

RW: Go check out the dagame the explosion did

(...) You slip off of the mecha-spider.

Meta: Investigate Command Room

(...) You drag yourself down the hall behind Frelock, and eventually get to the control room. Like he said, there's a dead guy in here. There's also a gaping hole in the ceiling near the back wall that leads into a ventilation system of some kind.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There's a few working computers, so you take a peek at one of the nearby monitors.

Goals

Throw Ogomspoxom into the fires of Mt. Helmath!

Current Soundtrack
Ocean Redux

Actions

Fantasy: Find someone skilled in medical actions and get my leg healed.

(...) Yup, you can't find anyone. Actually, you're not sure why you tried since obviously no one on the boat has any medical training.

Fantasy: Aye, find a way onto the boat.

(...) What boa- oh, a boat is coming. You stand up on the raft and try to flag down the ship. Looks like someone saw you!

Fantasy:Inquire about possible ways to subdue the mayor and delay the emergence of his powers.

(...)
Frelock: "Is there any way to delay the return of his powers?"
Warrior: "You're lucky you ran into me. This sword can't kill Ogomspoxom outright, but its presence nearby should delay the return of his powers long enough to reach Mt. Helmath, I think. Once we get to the island, we'll have to find a way through the Jungles of Piercing and scale the slope of the volcano."

FW: back to the bilge. Take artys spring shoes though.

(...) You try to slip away with the spring shoes, but Frelock grabs them from you.

Fantasy: Pick up dwarf, Activate Sidequest Radar

(...) While manning the navigation wheel, you spot a raft in the distance. There's a Dwarf on there! And he might have booze! You run to the port side and help him onto the boat, a bit disappointed when you see no flask at his side. You got a new party member! Activating your sidequest radar, you can sense a quest-giver to the far east and another to the far north. Nothing too close.

Fantasy:Help Divide heal HEN's leg.

[Dermonster]

LATE AND POSTING FROM A PROXY LETS DO THIS.

RW: Go to computer room and hack into the mainframe.

Nuts.

Meta: Pull Derm in here and set the code expert down at a computer to work.  Keep an eye on that hole in the roof while I'm in there, though.

(...) You drag Derek into the room and bodily fling him into one of the chairs! He looks flustered.

RW: Go to computer room and hack into the mainframe.

(...) You effortlessly hack into the main computer network and connect the control center to the rest of the ship. The lights in the room come on, as do a few of the monitors at the front of the room. And the lower decks' security systems. And the main deck's heavy battle-mech storage facility. WAIT WHAT. You hear the sound of glass shattering from down the hall.

Meta: (Did I notice the stairway?) If so, yell at Gordon for not seeing it and climb it.
If not, yell at Gordon anyway and find some control panel or anything.

(...) You yell at Kyle and deliver a mighty boot to his face! He's sent flying across the room and crashes to the floor in a heap. Then you notice some stairs and begin to descend them. At the bottom you see a sign pointing back up the stairs: "Observation Deck (Sector 4)".

Meta: Squeak at Divide to get in the Gm, than notice the stairway and go through it.

(...) You're a little too dizzy from getting kicked in the face to notice anything right now.

Fantasy: Ask the warrior about her past and how she first met the demon. Also her name.

(...)
Edgar: So, how do you know this demon, Mrs...?
Warrior: Thelia. My name is Thelia. I am an enlisted woman from the nearby human fort of Guildplanks. I and a few dozen other soldiers were given the task of tracking down the demon lord Ogomspoxom and finishing him off. He was once the leader of a dark goblin fortress to the southwest, but the whole place was demolished by some adventurer dual-wielding dragon corpses. Ogomspoxom has been on the run since then. We caught up to him once and my companions managed to weaken him with this. [She holds up the sword.] He escaped however, and we suspected that he was masquerading as a human and had convinced a nearby town to elect him as its ruler.

Fantasy:Help Divide heal HEN's leg.

(...)You accomplish nothing and just get in the way.

FW: Name the rat george and infuse more summoning magic into him.

(...) You suddenly remember your rat, so you love him and hug him and name him George. Then you attempt to infuse him with more summoning magic. Calling upon the mystic forces of the life plane, you cast all the summoning energy you can muster toward the rat! Nothing happens for a moment, then George grows three times his original size and... his tail turns into a scorpion stinger?! Awesome.

Fantasy: Heal HEN.

(...) Your dabbling surgeon skills apparently aren't enough. You can't figure out how to heal his ankle.

Fantasy: try to find something to throw

(...) Nope, nothing. Hey, where did that pebble go?!
