I'm sorry, Monk's terrible pun put me in a coma for a few days.

META TURN:

Goals
Find the keycard stations.

Current Soundtrack
Trespasser

Actions

RW: Examine communications equipment.

(...) You enter the communication center and look around. It's a large two-tiered room, with stairs on either side of a balcony. There's radar equipment and communication screens all over the place. The pedestal sits at the back of the room, looking out-of-place. Most of it still seems usable, but none of it has been used in quite a while. You can hear a vague... techno beat coming from inside the walls of the room.

Meta: Loot crew quarters!

(...) You shower the nearest room with plasma, destroying almost everything inside and foiling future looting attempts.

Meta: Cautiously follow Derek to the communications room with the pedestal..

(...) You run to the communications room with Derek and look around with him.

Meta: Search for more Janitor's supplies.

(...) You find a janitor's closet in the hallway! Inside you find a power washer! It makes a good ranged weapon!

Meta: Find some ammo belts.

(...) You find some ammo belts in one of the nearby rooms and drape them across your chest! You don't have a use for them, but they look cool. Actually, all the weapons around here are energy weapons, so you have a feeling these ammo belts were always just for show. In fact, the bullets feel too light. They're all fake!

There we go.

[_DivideByZero_]

Sorry, my bad. Forgot about this.

Also, my arm is severed. You forgot that.

[monk12]

Now that is an intimidating figure.

[Dermonster]

I just noticed that my Fantasy characters sprite pic is called RhAss.png

If intentional: HOW DARE YOU! DUEL AT DAWN! BROADSWORDS IN A PIT!

In unintentional: HOW DARE YOU ect ect ect.

Still awesome though.

I just noticed that my Fantasy characters sprite pic is called RhAss.png

Imgur renames them randomly, but you're welcome to entertain paranoid delusions concerning its sentience and hatred toward you.

[Dermonster]

I'm less concerned about Imgurs hatred than its obsession with my ass.

Actions

RW: Activate communication equipment, search all channels for incoming or outgoing signals. Also send out a general high class S.O.S message.

(...) You brush dust off the console and activate the communications equipment.

Code: [Select]

Searching incoming signals...
(30MHz-300MHz)
...

...

...

No signal found.

Searching outgoing signals...
(30MHz-300MHz)
...

Signal found!There's a signal coming from this ship, being sent somewhere far away. It's not even in this star system. You decide to send a high-class S.O.S. anyway. Why isn't that GM guy stopping you?

Meta: Examine equipment in communications room, and see if I can make traps out of it.

(...) In the span of just a few minutes, you rig up a complicated pulley system and hang a piece of equipment that looks similar to a huge CB radio from the ceiling. You draw an 'X' on the floor where it will hit when dropped.

Meta: Look for more weapons

(...) You yank another mop out of the closet, causing the contents to crash down on top of you! You're buried under a mound of cleaning supplies.

Meta: Look for intra-ship communication. See if anyone else is listening in.

(...) You can't seem to figure out how this equipment works.

Meta: Step Two--Find some shades.

(...) There's a whole pile of shades in this drawer over here! Let's see... Doc Brown shades... nah... Kamina shades... nope... Caruso shades! Perfect.

Actions

FW: Cat: Ride on through to the other side.

Me: Pour more summon magic into George and try to get him some new legs. BECAUSE THAT'S HOW MEDICINE WORKS.

(...) JC sprints through the jungle. As you arrive at the edge of town, you witness a scene of pandemonium before you. Citizens scatter in every direction as the ground quakes and the forest fire spreads! (...) Two legs pop out in front of the block of wood connected to George, and the arrow sinks into his chest as the wound mends itself.

Fantasy: Spring away!  Spring away! With friends!

(...) You grab onto Elica and Edgar and try to bounce through the jungle! You don't make it too far with all the excess weight.

Fantasy: Do nothing

(...) You punch Derm in the face for no good reason, knocking out another one of his teeth! In other news, your arrow wounds are still bleeding steadily. You should probably do something about that.

Fantasy: Flee back to town!

(...) You instantly become dead weight, and the three of you crash to the jungle floor.

Fantasy: Fashion a splint out of the granite, for my toe.

(...) You imagine a scenario in which you roll a perfect 5 and somehow make a splint out of granite. Because broken toes need splints, of course. In reality, you're still trapped in a block of solid granite and can't move more than an inch or so to either side.
