Future Earth - Jungle Biowarfare RPG - Page 20

The Game Master says...

Gault calls out in the now well traversed passageway. While trying to get his bearing he feels for the wall to ensure he knows how far he is from it. His hand tingles a bit but at the moment he cannot tell why.

Around this time...

Seth, still with his infected hands, gets disoriented a bit when he hears Uhura's analyzer and jumps in reaction to the sound, he then leans to one side of the wall with a hand stretched out. His infected hands now touching the immediate wall nearest to him.

Near this time...

Artemis is asleep.

Meanwhile...

Uhura waits and observes the drawings further. She picks up a tunnel leading to a big river and a cave in a mountain. She sees battles between natives.

Major waits for some feedback but there is none to come at the moment.

GM: Say what you wish to do now. No action needed for Artemis.

The Game Master says...

GM: No action for Seth and Gault (In Character is for Brainstorm only). There also seems to be a lack of co-ordination between Characters each seemingly just doing their own thing without reading the action of what other Players are expecting - are you Discussing these things in Brainstorm BEFORE Posting your actions?

Gault is confused, waiting in the corridor, his hand tingling even more with warmth.

Seth, Uhura and Major stand waiting on the actions of others.

Meanwhile...

Artemis awakens to the smell of smoke from a fire. She quickly looks around and notices that her hands and feet are at this very moment being tied to a diagonal cross near a fire. The natives are singing a chant that goes something like,

"Touch not the sacred tree or you burn..." In a slow dismal way... "Touch not the sacred tree or you burn..."

One of the natives has a knife attached to his waist near where she is being tied it may be her only opportunity to get out of this difficult situation.

GM: If Artemis wants to try roll against Body on next move. Everyone: co-ordinate actions and say what you wish to do now.

The Game Master says...

GM: Yet again, no action for Gault so we move on.

Gault's tingling pain soon becomes sharp as it feels as though hundreds of tiny injections made its way into his arm at the same time. The feeling causes him to stifle and lose breath. He falls to the floor without being able to say a word.

Meanwhile...

Artemis through luck or an unusually desperate act is able to take the knife and cut the material that binds her. As she does so the natives protest while pointing their fingers at her. Paying them no mind she continues and leaps from her doom to the dry earth beneath. She looks around but is confused about which direction to take.

Around this time...

Major passes Uhura, then Seth and then comes across Gault on the ground, he is frothing from the mouth as his body twitches.

GM: I stopped there in case Major wants to do something different if not I will continue with his last action. Do not need actions for Gault, Seth or Uhura. I need a Mind roll for Artemis on next action and confirmation from Major only.

The Game Master says...

Artemis may be a bit bewildered from her current physical chemistry but she is still quick enough to gather her directional bearings. She runs towards the temple but before she can get there she is confronted by some kind of faceless monster.

Meanwhile...

Major is on his way to the entrance of the temple but just before he gets to the doorway he is stopped by a native yielding a rock with a pointed edge.

GM: Actions only from Artemis and Major for now. If you want to fight please Post combat rolls on next turn.

The Game Master says...

At first Major taught it was a native but he soon realizes it is Artemis, she seems delirious and does not realize what she is doing!

Major attempts to alert her but it is too late as she strikes a formidable blow hitting Major to the ground doing minimal damage. Fortunate for Major, Artemis is rather weak, she does nothing more than cause him some pain but the biosuit is not punctured.

Upon her last action Artemis starts to regain a conscious state and realizes she was most likely in one of those 'visions' she had earlier in the mission or at least that is how she reasons it. Artemis looks like hell, her eyes are red and state unkempt but worst of all you are amazed to see that she is covered with blood splats on her clothes but there is no sign of injury to herself.

Major gets up and you both walk over to the native - no one is there. You start looking around the immediate area but see only a blood trail going towards the back of the temple.

Just prior to the last event...

Seth would have heard the Artemis / Major inncident. Uhura would have noticed Seth's looking into the temple corridor trying to ascertain what he heard.

GM: Major -1HP. Gault roll against Body. Everyone say what they wish to do now.

The Game Master says...

Major tries to get Seth's assistance but Seth is not responding. Artemis does not follow his suggestion either and follows the blood.

Around this time...

Uhura passes by Seth trying not to touch him she gets to where Gault is on the floor. Major meets her there and assists in trying to revive Gault as per her instructions. Just as Major injects Gault with a combination that should help Gault goes unconscious but he is still alive and not trembling anymore.

Meanwhile...

Artemis follows the blood trail alone, she goes towards the back of the temple where the overgrowth is rather thick and the trees even bigger and more intimidating. The blood trail leads to what looks to be a small cliff covered by tall shrubs and bush. To get down there you would have to descend carefully.

GM: Gault is on 0HP. No further actions from him for now. Everyone else do say what you wish to do now.

The Game Master says...

Gault is in the left room in darkness unconscious.

Artemis is by the entrance of the Temple.

Seth wanders the halls in darkness.

Uhura stands aware at her original position.

Major follows the sequence of the wall's hidden message and proceeds to open whatever is there.

Hisses are made and a puff of air is felt as some kind of pressurization is normalized from the sides of the wall which can now be clearly seen as a double door that swings. The inside of the doors looks to be of solid metal as clean as the first day it was created. There is a cloud of fog in your way that starts to clear after a minute. You cannot see much but do hear a simple beep followed by some kind of technical powering up mechanism that takes place causing the lights in the room and passageway up to where Seth was to light up with a dull green glow.

Inside you see what resembles a bridge or command center. The tree from the room where the frog-like creatures were starts here as you can clearly see the roots. The tree's roots has made its way into everything including the appearance of mummified bodies wearing a similar bio suit to what you have on! To see more you would have to enter.

Uhura's analyzer remains on normal readings.

GM: Say what you wish to do now.

The Game Master says...

Major enters what looks closer to a lab than a command center. He can see items that looks like they were used to conduct experiments but he is no expert and cannot draw a conclusion. The skeletons appear to be human and the rest of the room is covered with broken glass and some moss like substance near the tree.

Just then...

Uhura appears from a distance and can confirm that it is a biological lab.

Around this time...

Gault dreams.

Artemis and Seth bump into each other in what seems to be an unusual dance of fate.

GM: Say what you wish to do now. No actions for Gault needed.
