Season Two, Episode Eight: A Bug's Strife · Flail to the Face: A "Compatible with Mörk Borg" Actual Play Podcast

0:00
Greeting scum, and welcome to Flail the Face.
0:02
I am your flail Meister, Kevin, and I'm here with these
0:05
degenerates of the wastelands. Hi, I'm Thomas and I'm playing
0:11
Axel. What is up?
0:13
I am Tom, I'm playing the amazing Hank.
0:15
I'm not a Tom and I'm playing Morgan.
0:19
But who are you? I'm Mr. Paschke.
0:21
You are Mr. Paschke. Well, these guys got a lot of
0:24
bullshit ahead of them, so might as well throw them into it and
0:26
flail, flail, flail. So last we left you guys, you
0:57
left the camp with Tunguska and we're headed towards the
1:00
Bloodhorn oil fields where Zoya was, which Tunguska is under the
1:05
impression that this might be the demon that she's looking
1:08
for. So she's hauling your asses with
1:10
you guys are driving. She's going over how she feels
1:13
about Throckmorton and how she got to be where she is and why
1:18
she's doing this. This is her home world.
1:21
She's looking to save it from these demons.
1:23
When Morgan had to take a potty break pull off, you find a gas
1:27
station. Some of you get in there, some
1:29
of you are preaching to the great beyond, and some of you
1:34
are being creepy little peepers. When Axel, as he goes into the
1:38
gas station, finds that in the back, there are some very
1:41
unsavory, very disgusting looking characters back there
1:44
wreaking havoc, and he decides that he's just going to be a man
1:48
of action and launch a grenade at them.
1:51
As this happens, all hell breaks loose.
1:54
You guys get into a scuffle and a few of you are not doing too
1:59
well. I am at 0 as am I.
2:02
So after you guys dispatch with the Skraelings, both Axel and
2:08
Hank are not doing too good. They get drug to the car and
2:11
that's where we are right now. Morgan, you are tending to both
2:17
Hank and Axel in the back of the car while Tunguska is trying to
2:22
compose herself from her health spot on form.
2:25
The spikes are starting to retract into her body.
2:28
She's partially clothed now and. Disappointment.
2:33
She has punched the gas and she is headed the fuck out of town.
2:37
She looks back at you, Morgan, and she says in the box at your
2:42
guys's feet is a Med kit. Take care of these guys.
2:45
I need you guys at tip top shape.
2:47
And she's kind of reaching back over the seat, pointing at a box
2:50
there and opening the box. You do have a Med kit that has 3
2:55
doses in it. OK, so I should take care of
2:58
myself first to make sure I can best take care of them.
3:00
I probably have like a hit point of damage right?
3:03
I should heal me. Well, absolutely.
3:06
No. OK, so who?
3:08
I guess since I got three, who looks the worst?
3:11
They're both at 0 They're. Both at zero, yeah.
3:13
We're both. Fucked.
3:15
Who do I like the best? It's a question only you can
3:18
answer. What do I D20?
3:20
Am I rolling the D20 to heal? It just says when you use it
3:24
they get D6 hit points back so. Okay, so you just use a use.
3:28
Yeah, it's just a use. All right, so I got 3 Gambino.
3:31
You're gonna get the extra 1, buddy.
3:33
Okay, cool. I based this off of nothing, all
3:36
right? So I got 2 fives and a four.
3:38
So you get a 5, you get a nine. How many hit points do you guys
3:42
have well? I have. 11.
3:45
Nailed it. Oh so so your cap is 1 so I
3:51
don't I can use that other one on myself and they're.
3:52
All just failed. Wait a minute now.
3:55
Sure. Yeah, OK.
3:57
Yeah, cool. And then I'm back up to five.
4:00
Fantastic. Yay me.
4:02
You're all at one. Yeah.
4:04
Yeah, idiots. Wait a roll so low on your
4:07
character sheets guys. Why don't you randomly generate
4:10
1 like I did and get good hit points?
4:13
I don't know, I wanted to flavor.
4:17
All right, so as he injects the both of you with these syringes,
4:21
you guys wake up in a panic. What the fuck in hell?
4:29
Morning. Welcome back.
4:32
Yeah. You guys wake up in the back of
4:34
the car with Morgan standing over you holding 2 syringes.
4:37
I look directly at Morgan, panicked.
4:40
If you're back here, who's driving?
4:42
I'd like try to like scramble. He he just puts his finger like
4:50
down your face, starting from your forehead, going all the way
4:52
down. Don't worry about that.
4:53
But you don't have to worry about that.
4:54
OK, the moment he gets to my collarbone, I'm slapping that
4:57
hand away. Do you wait until he gets to the
4:58
collarbone? Yes, yeah, to the all the way to
5:00
the collarbone. OK.
5:02
And then like just no they. Always see my congregant?
5:05
Where? Where's my bad bastard?
5:07
Oh, he's didn't make it. Oh, son of a bitch.
5:11
Oh damn it. As you say that Tunguska looks
5:14
back, it's like, yeah, you guys got your asses handed to you.
5:16
I don't know how this is going to work out.
5:19
Trying to get Zoya now, but I need you guys focus now.
5:23
We're about 50 miles away from where we need to be and we need
5:27
everybody on the job with their head straight.
5:29
Side note, welcome back to the land of the Living, YouTube.
5:32
Thank you, It's good to be back. I like stretch my hand out
5:35
towards Hank. You notice in the palm of his
5:39
hand. I have an eye growing out of it
5:42
now. What in the fucking hell?
5:44
Oh, didn't see that coming. Did you see Pan's Labyrinth or
5:48
something? What the hell?
5:50
Nothing. Anyway, yeah, ready up.
5:52
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, God damn it.
5:55
Why the hell do you have a eyeball in your fucking hand?
5:58
Anyway, so and I'm going to like start climbing over the back
6:02
seat till I get into the front seat.
6:05
You can still hear me, motherfucker.
6:08
Right, so as you guys are making your way down this long dusty
6:12
Rd. Chingasca looking very focused
6:18
and still trying to compose herself and cover up after her
6:22
shedding of her flesh, she's focused on the mission at hand.
6:26
Now she's like, all right, now listen, we're going to be
6:27
heading out to a Black Star brand gas station out in the
6:31
middle of nowhere. It looks just like a normal gas
6:33
station, kind of like the one we just blasted by.
6:36
But, and I know this because I've been out here, there's more
6:39
than meets the eye. Transformers much like that, but
6:42
not really. They are.
6:45
Gobots were the originals and the Transformers stole it from
6:48
them. But that's neither here nor
6:49
there. Not only is it a fuelling
6:51
station, but they've got some shady weird shit going on back
6:56
behind. When we get there, I am going to
6:59
drop you guys off around the back and I will make it to the
7:02
guard station at the front gate and I will create a distraction
7:08
so you guys can get in. I know for a fact that there is
7:10
a door in the back that you can sneak in.
7:12
I know there's cameras everywhere.
7:14
It's got a gated area that goes around the full perimeter of the
7:18
facility. I hate to say this, but I'm
7:20
going to have to trust that you guys will find a way to get in
7:22
and I will meet up with you guys inside.
7:25
Question. Yeah, I don't know what the
7:27
distractions going to be. You're going to have to trust
7:29
me. If we're all going to finish
7:31
this job and make it out alive, you're going to have to trust
7:33
me. All right.
7:35
So once we get in there, we're going to find Zoya, we're going
7:39
to bring her back and we're going to get answers out of her
7:42
and she's going back to hole. All.
7:44
Right. So any other questions?
7:46
Anybody have anything they want to bring up?
7:48
Anybody want to talk about the eye in Axel's hand?
7:50
Yeah, why do you have a God damn eye?
7:54
If you care so much about Gobots, what about Hydrox versus
7:56
Oreos personally? Eye drops, person.
8:00
Upper Newmanos. Same.
8:02
OK ohh the I think. Yeah, Axel has just been staring
8:06
at her as her skin has been rippling and the moment she's
8:09
like, anyone got any other questions?
8:11
And he's just like, I'm sorry, what?
8:14
I have a question, can I look for like another sign?
8:17
Because even though I have a HP of one I have a stop sign that I
8:20
could use or a throat sign that I could use to deflect like one
8:24
hit against me. OK, can I just like scrap a
8:26
minute? I mean, we're on the road right
8:28
now, but if you see something, you know what, with a presence
8:33
test as we're driving by, I'm sure you can convince her to
8:36
stop. Presence is a + 1.
8:37
Get it? That's neat.
8:39
All right, She is going far too fast for you to catch any sort
8:43
of debris out there that catches your eye.
8:45
So unfortunately, nothing that you can see at the moment.
8:48
But damn it, maybe when you get in there you can scavenge
8:51
something. I thought I saw a coyote chasing
8:53
a roadrider on a rocket, but I don't know Looney Tunes.
8:56
I don't get it. That's all folks.
8:59
Oh yeah, I get that. OK, but what's with the hand?
9:02
Yeah. What's with the goddamn hand?
9:05
Can you see out of it what happens if I poke it?
9:07
Can it cry? As you're reaching your finger
9:10
across, I knock it away like yes, I could.
9:13
It hurts and I could see it's really disorienting to do.
9:17
Do you have special gloves that are also sunglasses?
9:20
No. Maybe you could make some.
9:23
Clearly, there's a market for it, at least one.
9:25
Yeah, at least for one person. It's a niche market.
9:28
Now and like he starts kind of just like concentrate and you
9:31
see it close and then it seals itself shut.
9:35
Oh wow. Well, that's freaky.
9:37
Wow. And as you look over, you can
9:38
see Tengkoska, one hand on the steering wheel the other way and
9:41
just kind of holding her head, just in disbelief that this is
9:44
the crew that she's gathered to take care of this.
9:47
Listen here lady, I know we may not look like much.
9:51
No, you don't, but. We come through, we got here.
9:55
Yes, and if memory serves me, you guys are only here because I
10:00
took care of most everything that was going on.
10:02
Either way, it's. Fine.
10:03
Oh, tomato. OK, fine.
10:05
Either way, either way, we need to focus and you get our heads
10:08
straight. And as she's saying this, you
10:10
can tell that it's starting to get dark.
10:12
The sun is starting to set in the horizon.
10:15
She lets you know that you guys are still roughly about 2530
10:19
miles out. There's still a bit of time,
10:20
probably about in 30 minutes until and you get to the area
10:24
that you need to be at. What?
10:25
Sort of armaments. Are we walking into here?
10:27
How many people are there? What are they armed with?
10:30
It's more than just a gas station.
10:31
There's guards with assault rifles.
10:33
There's. Son of.
10:35
A Yeah, this is this is not going to be easy.
10:37
So it's got a Waffle House on the inside.
10:40
It does have a Waffle House on the inside.
10:42
Oh God damn Waffle House. I spy with my little eyes
10:45
something that's color brown. The ship.
10:47
Is it dust? You got it.
10:49
Good job. Your turn.
10:50
I don't want to play. Do I guess?
10:53
So she kind of runs down in her brief time that she's been
10:56
there, that there's a lot of armed guards, there's a lot of
10:59
rooms in this gas station area that is blocked off or heavily
11:04
guarded, lot of security cameras.
11:07
She does let you know that on one of the side of the facility
11:10
there's a mass grave that a lot of these Skraelings have been
11:13
scouring through and feeding on the bodies.
11:17
Why there are bodies out there, she has no idea.
11:19
It's a wasteland, It's a thing that happens.
11:22
But there's a lot of heavily armored personnel carriers, big
11:26
hulking vehicles out here. It's like a military presence in
11:30
this gas station guarding the station.
11:33
But there's something else. And she just, she doesn't know
11:35
exactly what else is going on here.
11:37
And she? So this is just like far above
11:41
your run-of-the-mill wasteland mutants.
11:43
Yeah. So like, I'm just going to go
11:45
and be like, OK. They are far too organized for
11:49
being the people that almost killed Axel and I.
11:52
These people know what the fuck they're doing.
11:53
Yes, they do, and I have a feeling that Zoya has got
11:56
something to do with this. I don't know if she's.
11:58
Expecting us? I don't know if she's expecting
12:01
us to tell you the truth. We may be walking into a trap,
12:04
but I do know that I need her so I can complete my mission.
12:09
And you guys are you're going to help.
12:12
And so as she says that, you guys go over a small Ridge as
12:17
the sun is setting and overlook a sprawling gas station with oil
12:21
fields back behind it. You know, the big oil derricks
12:24
in the back. But you see a decent sized
12:26
facility. And as you guys Crest the Ridge
12:29
there, she slows down and surveys the scene.
12:32
She tells you, OK, we're going to creep around the back.
12:36
I'm going to drop you guys off right next to the mass grave off
12:40
to the South side of the facility.
12:41
It's not going to be the easiest thing.
12:43
I would try to be as out of sight as much as you can.
12:46
And I would suggest trying to sneak around the back of the
12:49
facility. I know there's a door in the
12:51
back, just don't know how heavily monitored it is 0.
12:56
Great. Well, you can count on us.
12:58
We are professionals. I certainly hope so.
13:01
We know what the hell we're doing.
13:03
Axel, she looks over to you and she says open up the glove box
13:07
and in the glove box she hands you a crudely drawn map of the
13:12
facility, which I've LinkedIn the Discord as far as that she's
13:15
seen. OK, at the bottom there is going
13:18
to be the mass grave. Up towards the top right is
13:21
going to be that door she was Speaking of.
13:23
There's other little bits and bobs that we'll get to when we
13:26
get to it. She looks back at you guys.
13:28
I'm going to be dropping you guys at the grave.
13:30
There's going to be more of those tumor filled creatures
13:33
that we saw. I would keep an eye out for
13:35
them. We know how to take them out
13:36
this time, so. I know that at least when I drew
13:41
this, there's a a hole in the fence on the north side that
13:44
might be an easier way to get in if the back door is locked or
13:48
monitored. But I'm going to be at the guard
13:49
post, which is the first one here, number 1, and I will
13:53
create a diversion so that you guys can get in relatively
13:56
unnoticed. Are there any questions before
13:59
we make our descent into possibly all of our own deaths?
14:03
It's great. What deals do you think they
14:05
have on snacks? Do you think they have like
14:08
roller meat for like 2 for 3:50? I want I usually don't go from
14:13
eating any of these spaces. I don't know.
14:16
He's he's right. Roller meat is that's where it's
14:18
at. All of your nutrition in one
14:20
spot. No, I don't need that processed
14:24
garbage. It's not good for you.
14:25
Poison your mind. What do you eat here?
14:28
I'll make my own meat, make my own food.
14:30
Out of Do I even want to know out of what?
14:32
You know whatever is lying about.
14:34
He eats poop. But the the most important thing
14:37
is you cook it on a grill that's fueled by propane and propane
14:42
accessories. You're grilling poop.
14:44
I'm not grilling poop. But that's what he just said.
14:47
You grill poop. But that's because you eat poop,
14:49
Axel says. A thing doesn't mean it's
14:51
correct. He's grilling poop.
14:53
I'm not grilling poop. Actually didn't say at that
14:56
time. I make my own processed meat
14:59
burgers from various animals, possibly people and.
15:03
Poop. At least I know where my meals
15:04
come from. Poop, poop.
15:06
From someones asshole. Not poop.
15:08
Y'all are weird. You're the one eating poop.
15:12
You're the ones obsessed with eating poop.
15:13
I'm not. Why don't you?
15:15
You're the ones that like, how about y'all be true to yourself.
15:17
Maybe you want to eat poop. That's your bliss and I'm gonna
15:20
let you have that. Me.
15:22
I make my own food that I find and salvage from the wilderness.
15:27
It's from poop, isn't it? It is not from poop.
15:30
How many chunks are in it? There's a slow nod from Axel.
15:34
And as Axel makes this slow nod, I I don't want to talk about
15:39
poop anymore. I I concur.
15:41
Maybe you just not bringing it up.
15:43
God damn it. And then she punches it and
15:44
heads down the road. Good luck.
15:47
You guys get to just beyond where this mass grave is.
15:50
You see that there's just a large pit.
15:52
You see some movement in there and you can tell that it's those
15:56
creatures that you guys fought earlier.
15:57
Oh great, the Skraelings are in there and they're ripping apart.
16:01
We're scrailing it up. They're skrailing it up, ripping
16:03
meat from bone. It looks like there's human,
16:05
looks like there's some sort of large animals.
16:08
It looks like there might be other Skraelings in there.
16:10
There's a lot going on in there. I'm going to can we roll press
16:15
to see like how? I think it's in our best
16:18
interest to try and circle this pit and not get the attention of
16:22
of those. I want to roll presents to see
16:24
like how invested these Skraelings are and whatever the
16:27
hell they're doing. We see what maybe we could like,
16:29
you know? Anybody who wants to roll this,
16:30
go ahead. Shit, that's an 11th.
16:33
OK, anybody else want to roll to see how?
16:36
I got dirt in my eyes. Why don't you use the eye on
16:40
your palm? Help you save. 18.
16:43
OK, you're still trying to regain your senses after damn
16:47
near being dead. You see that the Skraelings out
16:51
in the pile, they're, they're kind of just moving around, not
16:55
paying attention. But Morgan, you see that they're
16:57
very invested in digging through these piles, trying to scavenge
17:01
as much food as possible. There's not very many of them
17:05
over there. There's probably about three
17:07
that are going through there that you can tell being as it's
17:10
dark out now. So it's kind of hard to see, I
17:12
mean, unless you have an eyeball on your hand.
17:14
I. Don't anymore.
17:16
Oh OK, but they don't seem to be paying you guys any mind.
17:20
They're very invested in trying to scavenge food.
17:22
So their attention is not on us. Not at the moment, no.
17:27
So with this crudely drawn map we have, I say we circle around,
17:32
follow the fence and then try to get to that back door.
17:35
Like what number is that, 11111? OK, Yeah, OK.
17:39
That makes sense. Yeah.
17:41
OK, be sneaky. OK, yeah, got to be sneaky with
17:44
this, especially since Thomas, you and I have one HP whilst we
17:48
are sneaking. I'm just going to also roll
17:50
presents again to see if I could find a stop sign or something.
17:53
OK. Oh, that's a 13.
17:55
All right. So as you are starting to walk
17:58
the perimeter of the fence line, do you do notice that there is
18:01
the back door of an old small car?
18:06
Cool, I will take that and that'll be like my little shield
18:10
so I can use that to deflect one attack, but after that it's only
18:14
one use. It's done.
18:15
OK, there's bits of trash and everything kind of littering
18:18
around the perimeter as well. You do notice that there are a
18:21
lot of floodlights illuminating certain areas, not so much along
18:26
the fence line, but they're out past the property.
18:29
Is there a radio antenna? It doesn't say, but you know
18:34
what? Yeah, I'm going to say there's a
18:35
radio antenna there. All right, I'm thinking maybe
18:39
the amazing Hank needs to help a little sermon.
18:42
What if I like tune into this radio tower and say that like
18:45
there is something out in the fields out in the West that
18:49
there's this like big caravan of food that's like stalled and
18:53
like I've take an SOS for this convoy, OK, And say like, hey,
18:58
we need help. We're stranded, we're
18:59
defenseless. We have nothing.
19:00
Skraelings or where else is there?
19:02
They go out, try to rob, get all the shit from this caravan.
19:06
Leaves us to just like sneak around.
19:08
It's worth a shot. OK, what would you roll for?
19:12
That would be. OK, since it's a power.
19:15
OK, hang on, let me, let me bring up my.
19:17
Bring up a character the. Shortwave evangelist a backpack
19:22
mounted ham radio. So I have my ham radio.
19:25
I'm thinking it's like presence. It doesn't say anything about
19:30
using the radio. It doesn't say it doesn't.
19:32
I don't like, I don't see anything in the book about a
19:34
backpack notched ham radio. OK, but you're looking to hack
19:38
into the radio that they have or the antenna that they have there
19:42
or? Like tune into the frequency of.
19:44
I would say make a knowledge test.
19:47
All right, I have no warps, right?
19:51
Don't believe so? Cool, so that's just a 2.
19:55
OK. So I put my handwriting on the
19:58
ground. I try to tune in, but like I
20:00
can't seem to find it. It's like, oh, that's son of a
20:02
bitch. Yeah.
20:03
So you're spending a little bit of time trying to dial this in.
20:06
It's just you're not getting the frequencies right.
20:08
Sorry, boys. What are the other two doing as
20:11
he's doing this? I'm going to continue following
20:13
the fence line and trying to get down to the building.
20:16
When it gets to the corner, I'll peer around the corner to get an
20:20
idea of what is around the corner, but I still also want to
20:23
keep an eye on Hank while he's fiddle fucking with his radio,
20:26
OK? Yeah, at this point I think like
20:28
I was like, oh God damn it, sorry, but it's not working.
20:31
OK. Morgan, what you got going on?
20:32
You know, just hanging out, vibing, just fly.
20:37
I'm just happy to be involved. All right, so it takes a little
20:41
bit for Hank to kind of fiddle with this.
20:43
As Axel goes to the corner and sees what's going on.
20:46
There's big lights going from the rooftops, illuminating just
20:50
beyond where you guys are. You have the cover of night.
20:53
That's good. Along the fence line, you do
20:55
hear some scuttles from the Skraelings in the pit, kind of
21:00
running back and forth into the darkness, but beyond that, you
21:02
don't seem to see much. As you guys approach the corner
21:06
where the back door is, you do notice that there is a camera
21:10
just above the door. Oh, shit.
21:12
But there is a small strip of electrical tape covering most of
21:16
the lens. Really.
21:18
Yeah. So there's only been here
21:20
already. Yeah, we're not the first ones
21:22
here. All right.
21:23
Can I just like, push the electrical tape, make sure it's
21:25
secure, doesn't fall off? Or can he reach it?
21:28
Yeah, the camera's literally just above the door, pointing
21:31
down to the doorway. Oh, OK.
21:34
So you said most the lens like yes, sorry in my brain I had
21:38
auto computer that like it kind of drooped off.
21:41
I'm just like trying to nudge it back on.
21:42
That might not be what you meant.
21:44
It's more like somebody just half assedly just took the tape
21:46
and put it over 2/3 of the camera lens.
21:50
Well thank God they have shitty interns here.
21:52
OK, so how much mud is available currently?
21:55
Not much, it's a dry desert wasteland.
21:58
How much oil is available currently?
22:02
Around you. How crude and dark you want to?
22:06
Muddy up the. Camera, I mean, you do see
22:09
barrels of half full leftover sludge from what they're doing
22:13
at the refineries just kind of thrown about.
22:15
And I grab some sludge and cover the camera the rest of the way.
22:18
I don't see why not. OK, I would like to do so.
22:21
OK. Nice.
22:22
Yeah, I'm not going to make you roll for it.
22:23
And you just, you take a handful of it and you cover the rest of
22:27
the camera up so it is completely obscured and there's
22:30
a door there all. Right.
22:31
Good job. You're welcome.
22:33
Now let's go shopping. So now we have to try the door.
22:35
Is the door locked? The door is locked.
22:39
Like how intricate is the knob or whatever is used to open the
22:43
door? It's just a typical door handle,
22:45
nothing fancy, nothing intricate like you would see on any other
22:48
gas station. All right, Well, Axel, I
22:51
wouldn't recommend you use your grenade launcher on this.
22:53
We got to be stealthy if we just like knock the handle of the
22:56
knob off. Is there like a keyhole?
22:59
Yeah, just like a normal. Is there a welcome mat?
23:02
There's not a welcome mat, unfortunately.
23:04
Is there a rock off to the side that looks like it may be
23:08
plastic? I'll roll for it if you want.
23:10
I want you to roll for it because I want to see what
23:12
happens. Oh.
23:13
My God, please in that 20. Please in that 20.
23:15
I rolled a 15 so is that what modifier am I putting on that
23:20
15? Presence.
23:22
Presence that is now a whopping 13.
23:26
There's a bunch of rocks out here.
23:28
None of them that look like plastic.
23:29
None of them that look like they are harboring a spare key.
23:34
I'm gonna see because I got the skate punk style.
23:38
I want to see. I've got like safety pins and
23:40
stuff on me and I'm going to try and see if I can pick the lock.
23:43
Oh, OK, yeah, go for it. Oh, good idea.
23:46
Agility. With agility, that's a 14.
23:49
Ice OK with a little bit of fumbling and maneuvering the
23:53
safety pins, you do hear the tumblers click.
23:56
As you hear the tumblers click, oh, you all hear in the distance
24:01
yelling and screaming and some gunfire.
24:03
I. Guess that's Tonguska signaling,
24:05
huh? And as you hear the gunfire, you
24:08
hear these large, heavy vehicles firing up as well, so.
24:12
That'll do it. Yep, Yep, we gotta get it now.
24:16
Let's go. Alright, as you guys enter the
24:18
room, it's dimly lit with flickering fluorescent lights
24:21
and there's boxes of supplies that lining the walls.
24:25
I'm going to check out these supply boxes first.
24:27
OK, anybody who's checking out these supply boxes, go ahead and
24:30
roll a presence test. Why not?
24:34
DR10. That's a dirty 20.
24:37
Oh. 17 Thomas. I'm currently rubbing my eyes
24:41
and I'm like why is it so dusty here?
24:45
OK, so the two that succeeded, go ahead and roll AD 6.
24:52
Tua. Two also.
24:54
Both of you guys roll AD 4. D4 coming up. 2. 4 all.
24:59
Right, two and four. Morgan, you find in one of these
25:03
boxes a bulletproof vest, which is going to give you minus D4 to
25:09
your armor, and it's going to add +2 to your agility
25:13
difficulties. Nice.
25:15
And Hank, you find in yours a huge monstrous hazmat suit.
25:22
It's a minus D6 armor and it's going to add +2 to your agility
25:27
including defense and auto fire it.
25:30
Adds +2 to agility. It's a difficult to rating, so
25:34
yeah. For agility tests -1 to a -?
25:37
3 but I have an armor so minus E6 damage.
25:42
Oh yeah, so they call it a rat tag bio containment suit.
25:45
Nice. And it's got a special thing
25:47
that I will fuck it. I'll just tell you now it looks
25:50
like it's can't be preloaded with one dose of a drug and
25:53
injection condition. So.
25:54
Oh my God. OK, hang on, I'm going to roll
25:57
AD D10 and see what I'm gonna do that.
26:00
OK. That is A2, which is.
26:02
Goofball Axle, you've got a bunch of dust in your eyes.
26:05
I do, yes. So.
26:06
Very upset by it. Yeah, that's OK.
26:08
Doesn't make you better. The drug I have is goofballs.
26:11
You can't feel pain for D 10 minutes and you won't die unless
26:14
you're reduced to -4 HP, but you still die and are battered when
26:19
you come down. Oh, there you go, all.
26:21
Right, so I got goofballs. Yeah.
26:22
So there'll be just a button on the side that you can jab
26:26
yourself with that. So in this room, beyond the the
26:29
boxes that you see, there is a door to the north that leads to
26:34
a stairwell and a door to the South.
26:37
Before we go through doors, Morgan would like to go up to
26:40
Axel. I feel like you might need this
26:42
more than I do. And hands over the bolt booth
26:45
fest. You seem squishier than I and he
26:48
pokes at your sides. Right, but Axel is still wearing
26:53
tactical armor. That's what kept him going from
26:56
like. Oh fine, then I'll just put it
26:58
on myself. We.
27:02
All right, Yeah. So there's a door to the South,
27:04
there's a door to the north, and then there's a door on the West
27:09
wall as well. So.
27:11
Can we see the thing a little like word #13?
27:13
Is that? Is that stairs?
27:15
#13 is a room. Oh.
27:17
But then like behind like 12, there's like 13, there's like
27:20
213. There's another 13.
27:22
Oh, there's 213. What?
27:24
There's 13 at the top and 13 at the bottom.
27:26
Yeah, no, it's 14, isn't it? No, there's 213.
27:29
OK, I'm looking at the wrong one.
27:30
OK, so the 13 at the stairwell, that's supposed to be a 14, so.
27:33
OK, so that's a stairwell. Yes.
27:36
All right, so we got a stairwell.
27:38
We have this room here, and then we have this door which kind of
27:42
leads to the outside. And then from there it looks
27:45
like there's like, no, it's not outside.
27:47
It looks like like a communal area which would be empty
27:50
because Tunguska started their distraction.
27:54
And as you guys are discussing that, you do hear shuffling in
27:57
some of the other rooms. It sounds like people moving
27:59
around. Oh.
28:00
Shit, what rooms are they coming from?
28:03
Can we tell? It sounds like it's coming from
28:05
the West of the building, kind of towards the front.
28:09
Shit. I don't know about you guys, but
28:11
I don't want to go out there. I say we go down the stairwell.
28:15
I'm towards all for the idea of getting farther away from what
28:21
all of that noise is. I agree.
28:24
So stairwell. Let's hit it.
28:26
The walls of the stairwell have chipped paint concrete.
28:29
Apparently someone has been scratching the walls with these.
28:32
It looks like it primal scratches going down as you're
28:35
going down the stairwell. There looks to be a fuse box on
28:39
the wall. Fascinating.
28:40
Can I check to see if the fuse box is rigged in any way?
28:44
Go ahead and roll knowledge, right?
28:46
With my knowledge, at the flat zero, there we go.
28:49
Ah shoot, that's an 11. You don't seem to see any sort
28:53
of rigging or traps on the fuse box itself, but you do see that
28:57
when you open it up, it's numbered from 1 to 17, all
29:01
right, And some of the switches on the fuse box are more
29:05
accessible than the others. That's a bad idea waiting to
29:08
happen, so I think I'm going to touch it.
29:09
OK. So you guys going to go further
29:11
down the stairwell? Yeah, yeah.
29:13
We're down for this far. Got my grenade launcher ready
29:16
too, just in case. OK.
29:17
I'm just going to stand behind you.
29:20
All right, so as you guys are going down the stairwell, it
29:22
goes down, it seems a lot longer than it should, leading to a
29:26
hallway with flickering lights that lead down a flight to a
29:31
hallway painted with tacky blue grey paint.
29:34
As you guys are going down the stairwell, you've got a hallway.
29:36
The lights are real shoddy, flickering about and it leads to
29:40
a a long corridor that gets dark towards the end.
29:43
Is there a door at the end of the hallway or no not?
29:46
That you can tell, but if you were to look down the hallway,
29:49
you do see that there is a door on the West.
29:51
Wall in the West wall. Yeah, I'm going to walk up to
29:55
the door and put my ear to it, see if I hear anything from the
29:58
other side. OK, as you put your ear to the
30:00
door, you can hear the sound of somebody suffering.
30:03
Sounds like they're in a lot of pain.
30:05
Is the voicemail or female? It is a male, is it?
30:08
One voice. It is just one voice, OK?
30:12
As you're listening at the wall, you can hear that somebody's
30:14
shuffling around in there as well.
30:16
Oh, shit. OK, yeah, all right.
30:18
I turned back to Morgan and Axel.
30:20
Like, OK, we may got there's one definite person in there and
30:23
they're not sounding too good, and then there might be another
30:25
one I hear shuffling around in there.
30:27
If I remember correctly, we're supposed to capture this person
30:30
a lot, that is. Correct.
30:32
I kind of droop in my shoulders a little bit, look down.
30:35
So maybe X nay on the nade launcher gay.
30:40
I guess do we just go in? We could always open the door
30:43
and yell surprise. I still have my bat, Axel.
30:48
You got anything that doesn't go boom?
30:50
Looks down at his hip, There's a board with a nail hammered
30:53
through it. All right, Lauren, what do you
30:55
got? I have a matching board.
30:58
What my nail you'll notice is galvanized.
31:02
I sprung for the deluxe model. Good all you back the
31:05
Kickstarter too good. As you guys are trying to figure
31:09
out what you guys have as far as non explosive weaponry, you do
31:13
hear what sounds like skittering in the darkness down the
31:17
hallway. Like the hallway came back down.
31:20
No further down the hallway. It sounds.
31:22
It almost sounds like like a beehive, kind of, but it sounds.
31:27
Like insect like. It does sound very insect like
31:30
it it doesn't sound like a hive as much as various winged
31:34
insects skittering in the darkness.
31:37
Whatever that is. I mean, I and I hold up the grid
31:40
outlet. I've got an extermination.
31:43
Option We'll just piss them. Off or just set them on fire and
31:46
then we'll have a swarm of flaming things attacking us.
31:49
Or maybe anybody else that's stupid enough to come back here.
31:53
So Door with the shuffling and moaning sounds like our best
31:57
bet. Plan a door with the shuffling.
32:00
OK. You guys going in the door?
32:01
I think so. All right is, is the door
32:03
unlocked or is it locked? The door is slightly open all
32:07
right, so as you enter the room. I think we kick it down.
32:10
We just got a surprise. Just bum rush whatever's there.
32:13
OK, All right boys on 312I. Kicked the door open and go.
32:17
Got it. Oh man, Drop.
32:19
Come on. But you didn't yell surprise.
32:22
The plan was to yell surprise. So as you kick the door open,
32:26
you notice that the room is it's an untidy office with papers
32:29
thrown everywhere at bullet holes riddling the southern
32:32
wall. And as you look into the room,
32:35
you see a gentleman, severely injured, leaning up against the
32:38
filing cabinet. He has a huge gunshot shot wound
32:41
to his side and he has a lot of blood dripping from the base of
32:48
his skull as you're staring at the back.
32:50
Oh God. And he seems to be trying to
32:52
tell you something as he turns around and sees you guys.
32:54
I go up to him and I'm like, God damn, are you OK?
32:58
As he looks at you, he's not doing good, he is not going to
33:02
make it. He looks to you and you could
33:03
barely see. He's making out the words Riddle
33:06
rabbit, and as he says the word rabbit you see a large larva
33:11
creature come out of his mouth, wrap around his neck and go into
33:17
the hole in the base of his skull.
33:19
Oh good. And it seems to be burrowing
33:23
further into his skull. And as it gets into his head,
33:26
you see his eyes roll back and he seizes up and he drops to the
33:30
ground. OK.
33:32
So that's the Riddle rabbit. That's not Riddle or a rabbit.
33:36
It's fucked up, that's what that is.
33:38
Is there anything else in this room that we could salvage?
33:40
I mean, there's a desk in here, there's filing cabinet and
33:43
there's a bunch of papers that are thrown about.
33:46
I want to go look at the papers really quick.
33:48
OK, how compromised is that dead guy's skull?
33:51
I'm just saying the thing burrowed in there.
33:52
It might try to Burrow into one of us.
33:55
My logic is kill it. Or take control of that guy.
33:59
Are you going to make him your new thrall?
34:01
Oh God, hang on a second, hang on.
34:04
Sorry, I was drawing my hazmat suit.
34:06
Let me see here about my congregants.
34:09
Just to let you know, he is on the ground and it does not
34:12
appear to be alive. Oh, he's dead.
34:14
Yeah, yet. All right, because whatever this
34:17
large larva was that came out of his mouth is.
34:21
Eating him from the inside out. Yeah, and it just went right
34:24
from his mouth around his neck and burrowed into the back of
34:27
his head. The.
34:28
Feasting on his brain like some Chef Boyardee.
34:31
Yeah, lovely. Sorry if you all love Chef
34:33
Boyardee out there. It's pronounced Boyardy.
34:37
Boyardy. Sorry.
34:38
As soon as Morgan brings up the point of that thing still in his
34:42
head, Axel just freaks out and starts jumping up and down on
34:46
the skull. OK.
34:47
Just smashing. And just start trying to smash.
34:49
It OK, I mean it's prone on the ground.
34:52
You stomp the living hell out of his head and there's blood.
34:56
And as you're stomping and skull cracks open, you see the larva
35:00
make its way like it's trying to escape as well.
35:04
And The thing is the size of a foot long Subway sandwich.
35:09
Oh, 11 inches. Roughly 11 inches.
35:11
Little face. Sponsored by Subway. 12 inches
35:14
Bullshit. And you can see that it's
35:16
crawling away from the body. Huge Stinger coming off of the
35:21
back, very sharp and imposing mandibles.
35:24
Lovely. It is pretty fucking gross.
35:26
Yeah. And I will continue hitting it
35:29
with my board. OK, and this thing stops moving
35:32
with a squishing splats of death.
35:35
Thank you. You said you were going to be.
35:37
Yeah, I'm checking the papers on this desk.
35:39
OK. The papers on the desk include
35:41
multiple formal complaints from a Sergeant Donovan that several
35:45
staff members have been reassigned to the basement for
35:48
weeks now without leave, and also that the summary execution
35:52
of burial of prisoners has been against military protocol or non
35:58
enemy combats. This is like a a prison camp.
36:01
It's what it appears to be, boys.
36:03
There's some bad shit went down here.
36:05
Looks like used to be an old military Army base, well army
36:09
prison, but it seems the soldiers got a little bored and
36:13
decided to use the prisoners were target practice.
36:16
So whatever those scragglings are looking for up there,
36:19
they're just feeding on the graveyard of the prisoners.
36:22
I don't like this place. We we need to just get our our
36:26
person and get out. Yeah.
36:27
Is there anything about bugs in this paper?
36:30
Doesn't say anything about any sort of mutated insects or
36:33
anything in the paperwork that you're looking at now.
36:36
Whoopi are you guys staying in the room or you guys leaving I.
36:39
Think we're going to be leaving? OK, as you leave the room, you
36:42
do notice that a little bit down the hallway, before it gets to
36:46
just the pitch blackness, you do see another open doorway to the
36:50
West. You.
36:51
Know, right and you said it's open.
36:52
It is open. All right, I peer in the crack.
36:55
Of the door. OK, looking in the doorway you
36:59
see a room that has two makeshift prison cells in it.
37:03
Are they empty? You do see a few dead bodies,
37:06
looks like they've been shot several times.
37:09
And you see an individual in a military suit that looks like he
37:14
has been attacked and he's reaching for one of the bodies.
37:19
Not exactly sure what he's grabbing for.
37:22
But as he sees you guys, he's like, please, please, I need
37:25
your help. We need to get out of here.
37:27
Yeah, no, I'm kidding. Yeah, like, well, that depends.
37:30
You've been a bug food lately. Yeah, I don't I I need to get
37:36
out of here. This this place is a fucking
37:37
nightmare. They're.
37:38
Answering my question, I you got a bug in you.
37:41
Do I, I don't know. I just, I, he's holding with one
37:45
hand what appears to be a gunshot wound, and he's kind of
37:49
just crawling towards one of the bodies.
37:51
They have a set of keys that are clutched in their hands, tight
37:55
like rigor mortis to set in. And it's just holding the like a
37:58
death grip on these keys. We need to get these keys.
38:02
We need to get the fuck out of here.
38:04
My name is Lieutenant Boyers and I we, I need your help, please.
38:10
So we need those keys. Yes, yes, Morgan would go over
38:14
and and get the keys. OK, and I guess I go to Axel,
38:18
help me pick them up. Yeah.
38:19
We'll go in on each side of them and just kind of like lift them
38:22
up, yeah. OK, so as you go and pick them
38:25
up, you do notice that aside from just having this gunshot
38:29
wound to his side, you do see that his chest seems to be
38:33
moving in a weird fashion as you're holding him up.
38:36
Nope. And.
38:38
Squirming. As you're holding him up, you
38:41
see out of the corpses that you took the keys from, more larva
38:46
just ripping from the flesh. Axel, let's bring this guy.
38:51
This does not look good for him, no.
38:54
Wait, it's not his fault. Where are we taking the keys?
38:57
And with that, we're going to take a break.
39:10

41:57
Face These guys have found themselves in a makeshift prison
42:01
cell in the bottom of some sort of gas station compound thing.
42:06
Tenguska's nowhere to be seen and they're holding up a
42:10
gentleman by the name of Lieutenant Bowers who is got a
42:14
gunshot wound and some sort of movement in his chest as they
42:19
are focused on these larva that are ripping from these corpses
42:24
and the larva have taken notice of our degenerates.
42:31
Before we go forward, the guy that we ran into in the other
42:34
room, was he wearing army fatigues?
42:36
He was wearing some sort of military style fatigues.
42:39
Oh fuck. OK.
42:40
That being said, we're all initiative.
42:42
Oh shit, OK. Because these larvae are focused
42:46
on you. How many are there?
42:48
There are, I don't know, Romy AD 6.
42:52
This first one is going to be the larvae.
42:55
Okay, 5. Okay, there are 5.
42:57
And initiative is 1. Okay, wow, you, you picked a lot
43:02
of them, Yeah. They can we switch those?
43:05
Yeah. Let's do that.
43:06
There's one larva and we rolled up.
43:09
Kev, can we just be cool, man? Come on.
43:12
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry I can't be.
43:16
Cool. I cannot.
43:18
I'm the I'm the game master. I'm.
43:23
I'm the most uncool person at this table.
43:26
Look at me. I'm Kevin.
43:27
I'm like a substitute teacher. Oh.
43:30
You're like fair advantage is too bad that's how the dice roll
43:34
shit for Dicks. So everybody make.
43:38
So there's five of. Them.
43:39
There's five of them, yes. Everybody make a defense role.
43:46
That's agility. So I have -3 to that whoopie
43:49
from, well, I have armors I don't like.
43:52
I've only rolled the 13. There you go.
43:55
Which is a. 10 That's a natural 20.
43:57
OK, love it. What?
43:59
I rolled the 10. Do you remember how many warps I
44:00
had? I know I'd used at least two of
44:03
them in the last session, but it's been a minute.
44:05
We'll go with two, OK. I would like to use one.
44:09
OK, leaving. Me with one that I may or may
44:12
not have. Well, that was a waste of war.
44:18
Thanks for thanks for that Kevin.
44:20
I appreciate it. I take back the the substitute
44:23
teacher comment from earlier. Sorry, that's too late.
44:26
It has been recorded and that will be etched in my memory for
44:30
future future disciplinary actions.
44:33
Kevin will remember that. You have no real authority you.
44:36
Have no authority in the real. So as these larvae creatures are
44:43
focused on you, they lunge towards the three of you.
44:46
Well, at least three of them do. The other two are still
44:48
scuttering about. Just derping around.
44:51
A little bit the ones going for Hank and Axel lunge at you, but
44:57
catch your tactical gear and don't seem to make purchase
45:01
because they're they're trying to they have these large
45:03
stingers in the back and they're trying to jab them into you.
45:07
But the one going for Morgan does seem to puncture.
45:11
Go ahead and roll a D3 for damage.
45:16
No, my D3. Where are you?
45:19
You can't find it's taking too long to roll D6.
45:21
Okay, all right, that's four and divided by two, so that's 2.
45:26
OK, that's two points of damage. Then go ahead and make a
45:28
toughness test. Oh shit.
45:30
What about my body armor? Oh, you do have body armor, That
45:34
is correct. Go ahead and roll your armor.
45:36
So it was -4 So roll AD 4, right?
45:39
Yes, Sir, that's a one. OK, so you take one point of
45:42
damage. OK.
45:43
And then go ahead and make a toughness test, DR12.
45:47
You got this? Nope.
45:48
No, I rolled 3 OK my. Dice is rolled 3 three times in
45:52
a row. It's pretty.
45:54
Wow, go ahead and roll me AD 4. You get to roll all the dice.
45:59
Let's do. As this larva lunges at you and
46:02
pierces through your armor, you feel the Stinger Pierce your
46:06
body and you feel something injected inside you.
46:10
And as soon as you feel that injection flow through your
46:14
bloodstream, you stiffen up and and you plank fall to the
46:18
ground. You are paralyzed for the next
46:22
two rounds. Oh my.
46:25
Shit, he got that hot beef. Injection.
46:28
Why is everybody looking at me? Your guys's turn.
46:32
All right, Axel, do you want to go first?
46:34
Yeah, I'll try swinging at one with my board.
46:37
OK. Which one would you be swinging
46:38
at the one on you? Yeah, OK.
46:41
That is another natural 20. Lice.
46:44
First off, you had a natural 20 before, right?
46:47
I did so you should have attacked.
46:49
Yes, and that would have been an 18.
46:52
OK, so roll your damage. 3 for the first hit, the natural 20 is
47:00
1 * 2, SO 2. All right, so tell me how you
47:04
killed this fancy little larva. Nice dude.
47:06
Yeah, So it lunged at me and I dodged out of the way and swung
47:11
with the board and managed to, like, pin it to the ground.
47:14
And then with just a thrust, I forced the board to bisect this
47:18
thing on the ground in front of me.
47:19
OK, perfect. And it is been bisected.
47:22
There's two bits of squirming larva on the ground.
47:26
Nice. Is this one of the situations
47:27
where like if you cut in half a gross into two different larva?
47:31
That's a good question. I guess we'll have to wait and
47:33
see. That's a solid maybe.
47:35
Fuck Mr. Gambino. Alrighty, the strength.
47:41
Correct. Fucking's A5.
47:43
OK, tell me how you miss. I think what the amazing Hank is
47:46
trying to do, he's like God damn it, get away from me a jug ass
47:51
and he tries like to swat like he's mad trying to swat it with
47:55
a spiked bat, but he just frantically panics and misses.
47:59
OK, Mr. Paschke, go ahead, roll me a toughness test, DR10.
48:04
All right. You got this.
48:06
I'd like you to live over there. You know what?
48:08
This whole set, this whole. Set you can die.
48:13
You're not going to hear that again for a while.
48:15
OK. Because that was.
48:18
That was an 8. Out of 10, that was an 8.
48:21
Not a three. Nope, we're going with this set
48:25
now. The heavy gold set that I've had
48:28
that has not failed me, but it's not as fun.
48:32
It's my new set of dice because because.
48:36
OK, so as you're laying there paralyzed, you're still aware of
48:42
what's going on and you feel this larva with its Stinger
48:46
still inside of you working its way into your body.
48:50
As it's working its way into your body, you feel that it it's
48:54
moving stuff around trying to get through your body roll
48:59
initiative. Who wants to do it this time?
49:01
I'll give it a shot. Boom, that's the one.
49:03
Damn. It all right, so Axel, one of
49:06
the other larva charges through the corpse of the one that you
49:10
just bisected and is lunging towards you.
49:13
Go ahead and defend. That's a no.
49:17
I got a 8. Okay, go ahead and roll a D3 for
49:22
damage. And that is 1.
49:24
And you have armor, I do, and that is negated.
49:27
Okay, so it's clung on to you and it's trying to jab at you
49:30
with its Stinger, but it's just not making it through that armor
49:33
unfortunately. Yes, unfortunately.
49:35
I mean, fortunately, did I say unfortunately, yeah.
49:39
I'm not trying to kill you, Mr. Gambino.
49:41
The one that is attacking you is still trying to attack you.
49:47
The 5 -, 3, that's a 2. OK, go ahead and roll me AD3AD3
49:52
for the Stinger trying to sting you all.
49:56
Right, I'm just gonna roll this deep and ignore the 43.
50:00
OK and you have armor Yes the body 2 is D6 isn't it the hazmat
50:05
suit? D6 yes.
50:07
Five OK, so same thing it's still trying to Pierce through
50:13
and fortunately it does not Pierce through your hazmat suit
50:16
get. Off of me, you crawling little
50:18
Jackass. Mr. Paschke, you feel this one
50:22
still throwing into your chest cavity.
50:26
Oh. Shit.
50:27
And now it is your guys's turn. Can I try to get the thing
50:31
that's on Morgan off of him? Sure.
50:34
All righty. How are you doing this?
50:35
I'm just going to take my bat and try to swing it off of him,
50:39
but I don't want to do that because I'm afraid I'm just
50:42
going to roll shitty and kill him by accident.
50:44
Fuck. High risk, high reward buddy.
50:46
I have faith in you. Don't say that I got to do it.
50:52
I got to try. Scared Dollar?
50:56
Yes, that is an 18. Fantastic.
50:59
So tell me how you do this all. Right.
51:01
Well, first of all I got a roll damage then, right?
51:04
Yes, you do all. Right, that's D64.
51:09
All right, tell me how you do this.
51:11
Sweet. All right, I see this disgusting
51:15
wriggling little bug that looks like this.
51:18
It does look like that. Now and I go not fucking today
51:23
and I wind up like Happy Gilmore.
51:26
I step into my swing with my spike bat and I Babe Ruth this
51:31
bug off of my boy. Fantastic.
51:34
As you Babe Ruth, this guy off of your boy Morgan, you come out
51:38
of this paralysis almost as if the head coming off of this
51:42
larva breaks the connection and you are able to move and are in
51:47
a lot of pain because this thing is jammed up inside you.
51:51
That phrasing sounds great. Oh my.
51:58
You OK buddy? My clench might help, but I pull
52:02
it out right I try to remove it. OK, go ahead and make a strength
52:06
check. OK, come on, new dice.
52:08
Don't feel me like old dice. What'd you get?
52:11
Just OK as you're pulling it? You feel that it's lodged in
52:17
there pretty bad, so it may take a little bit of work to get it
52:20
out. Axel, what would you like to do?
52:22
How many are left still? There are three left, one that's
52:26
attacking. The one that's on me, actually.
52:28
Yes. Yeah, I am going to address this
52:31
before it gets too far out of him.
52:34
That is a 12. 12 wheel hit. Or three damage.
52:39
You tell me what happens. Basically I've managed to like
52:42
as it was like grapple me and sting me.
52:44
I managed to like pry with my board to like get it off of me
52:48
and I've just got it down onto the ground.
52:51
I don't know if it's dead or not so.
52:53
OK, as it slams against the ground, it makes a terrifying
52:57
shrieking noise, but it is still up.
52:59
But it is not looking good. That being said initiative.
53:02
I haven't ruled it yet. Is that AD 6D sixer?
53:06
Come on you dice 5. Yeah, we go.
53:08
Yeah, that's us. As you guys, Mr. Bashi, what
53:11
would you like to do? I want that Stinger out of me.
53:13
I want you to get it out of you. All right, Do.
53:16
You, Kevin, do you? I do.
53:17
I want him to be unpenetrated. Yeah.
53:21
Hello. Are you still penetrated?
53:23
No, I rolled an 18. I thought you have successfully
53:26
ripped this thing from your chest.
53:28
Oh well, don't sound too happy about it.
53:32
I guess you just ripped the fucking thing from your chest.
53:36
Every time, every day, it's just ripping things out of your
53:39
chest. Fucking what?
53:41
Is this the pit? Does he have a new weapon?
53:45
Does he have insect Stinger? Why not?
53:49
Yeah, it'll do D3 damage, yeah. Hell yeah.
53:52
But you do have a hole in your chest.
53:55
Oh yeah, that should be. Addressed immediately.
53:57
Hopefully soon. Who's next?
53:59
I'll continue trying to club the one at my feet.
54:02
Club it like a baby seal. Don't club baby seals.
54:05
Wait till they're adult seals. Yeah.
54:08
All right, that is 18. That's a salt.
54:12
For two more damage. Tell me how you do it.
54:14
Yeah, it's just the panic swinging at this point.
54:16
Keep going into it. It is mush.
54:19
Got it perfect and it has been pulverized into a pile of goo,
54:28
Mr. Gambino. There's one left.
54:30
There is 2 left. There's two left.
54:33
OK, I am. There's one that was going
54:36
towards you, and then there's one that's going towards the
54:39
Lieutenant. And the Lieutenant, by the way,
54:41
has just been dropped to the ground.
54:43
He's still holding himself, he's writhing in pain and he's got
54:46
this larva coming straight towards him.
54:48
I'm getting the one that's going towards Lieutenant, but Bowers,
54:52
OK, I'm just gonna roll that fucking 20.
54:58
Sweet child of mine, please roll that beautiful damage.
55:02
I'm going to do Max damage. Actually, you know what I'm
55:05
going to since this is okay. So this is not much.
55:07
I'm just going to roll D6 and multiply it.
55:09
Okay. 3 * 2 that's 6. Tell me how you kill it.
55:13
I just fucking El kabong this larva and I smash it with my
55:18
spiked bat and get right in its head.
55:21
All the spikes just, like, Pierce the head of this larva,
55:24
and thing just wriggles for a minute and then stops, then kind
55:29
of shrivels into itself. And then I just sort of crouched
55:32
down at Lieutenant Bowers. And I'd be like, remember, I
55:34
saved your life when we're asking questions out of you.
55:37
Yes, of course, of course. Oh, God.
55:41
And there's one left and it is coming towards you.
55:44
Mr. Gambino, please go ahead and make a defense room.
55:48
Don't be scared. You can roll high.
55:50
You can. You're AD 20, you can roll big.
55:52
Fuck you. That's a four.
55:56
OK, D3 damage all. Right, but.
55:59
Four, and you have your D6 armor.
56:02
Oh yeah, no, that was. Four.
56:03
OK, so. Oh wait, no, oh, sorry, D3.
56:06
Damage D3 Damage. Oh.
56:08
Shit, I'm sorry. Hang on.
56:09
You're all good. So it's 2.
56:10
That's my bad. OK, I'm gonna take this 1.
56:16
Okay, your armor is going to negate it.
56:18
Yep, all right, this one, it lunges at you again.
56:21
Another one that's still trying to breakthrough that hazmat suit
56:24
and it just not happen. I taunt it.
56:26
Okay, you can taunt it and you can also roll initiative.
56:28
Nice try, you're crawling a little bitch too.
56:32
Two, it is it. So the one that is on you is
56:35
realizing it can't get through to you, so it jumps off and
56:38
jumps onto Lieutenant Bauer. Fuck.
56:41
And Lieutenant Bauer, as he's writhing in paint on the ground,
56:45
he can't defend himself. And this larva crawls to his
56:50
face and into his mouth and down his throat.
56:54
Son of a bitch. As it's crawling down his
56:57
throat, Lieutenant Boward starts to vomit profusely, throws up
57:01
the larva, and he starts throwing up another larva, and a
57:04
third and two more after that. And all of a sudden you see that
57:10
his chest starts to almost cave in and then expand very wide as
57:18
this huge insect's larva bursts from his chest as it's bursting
57:24
through these huge wasp wings spread from its back and Stinger
57:29
unfolds from the rear. The Stinger juts into Lieutenant
57:34
Bauer's back and this huge wasp creature drags the Lieutenant
57:40
out of the door and into the darkness.
57:43
Are the larvas that spun out of him alive?
57:45
They are alive and they are following the huge wasp creature
57:50
take. Those keys, they were important.
57:52
Let's get the fuck out of here. Agreed.
57:56
Yeah, that that's the plan I can go with.
57:58
And also, for good measure, blow the fuck out of whatever is at
58:02
the end of that hall. Yeah.
58:04
Now if there was ever a right time to use a rocket launcher, I
58:08
think this is this is it. Yeah, go.
58:10
Fucking nuts. It's a grenade launcher and turn
58:13
and just fire. If you're launching it, it's
58:16
kind of a rocket. So you're firing off into the
58:19
darkness? Yeah, OK.
58:20
I cast magic Missile into the darkness.
58:23
All right, go ahead and make your attack.
58:26
That is a 17. Yes, all right, go ahead and
58:29
roll the damage. That is five damage.
58:32
Five damage. OK so as you follow the trail of
58:37
larva going into the darkness, you blindly launch a grenade
58:41
into the darkened void. You hear an explosion and a
58:44
blood curdling shrill that fades off as you hear the sound of the
58:50
larva crawling further into the darkness.
58:52
As you you guys are staring off seeing what happened, Teguska
58:56
runs down the stairs down the hallway to you guys and is in
59:00
just complete disbelief. Are you seeing what the fuck is
59:03
going on here? There's a bunch of fucking wasp
59:06
type larva just crawling all over this goddamn place.
59:08
What the fuck? Yeah, no fucking shit.
59:11
We just, we saw one go that way. We blew.
59:13
What the fuck up? Let's get the fuck out of here.
59:16
One of them was in me. Oh my God.
59:18
Oh my God that looks infected. Holy shit.

1:04:41
And she drops you off just on the outside of that.
1:04:45
And she says, all right, I'll see you guys inside.
1:04:48
Good luck all. Right, take us up after class.
1:04:51
What? I don't know, it felt like the
1:04:55
last time I was dropped off like this I was picked up after
1:04:57
class. Oh.
1:04:59
Bye Mommy. You went to school, OK?
1:05:03
What is it with you and mommies? Yeah, that's a very good point.
1:05:08
It's don't question through line.
1:05:12
And she just drives off very slowly with a very confused look
1:05:15
on her face. So only. 1.
1:05:20
More so hoping to have a little lunch box handed to him and a
1:05:24
note fit into his jacket to give to the teacher.
1:05:28
I'm storming this place here. This is my hall pass.
1:05:34
You have to let me in now, OK? Excuse me, that was a burp.
1:05:41
Delicious. I want the big chunks, no?
1:05:45
You don't. I always think you do, but you
1:05:47
don't really. Do yeah, I had a very full
1:05:50
dinner, so I have it written down there.
1:05:55
If it's a bug bite I swear to fucking God it's gonna get bad
1:05:58
and. Then he's got written down
1:05:59
crawling thing on the inside of Oregon's It's scorpion or it's a
1:06:05
cicada. It's probably a cicada this
1:06:08
time. Or a tarantula hawk wasp.
1:06:12
You ever seen those things? They're really fucking cool.
1:06:17
They're, they're, they're, they're Wasps designed to like
1:06:21
fuck up spiders. Like they're a beautiful like
1:06:25
blue color and they live in Australia.
1:06:27
So which is basically over all the spiders anyway.
1:06:31
And like, So what they do is they inject venom into it and
1:06:36
the tarantula is like still alive and aware of all the pain
1:06:40
and sensations that's happening to it.
1:06:43
So the hawk wasp takes it to its lair, lays eggs on top of it,
1:06:47
and the egg hatches it to a larvae, and the larvae just
1:06:49
feasts upon the still conscious and aware paralyzed spider.
1:06:53
That's delightful. Is it one of those, Kevin?
1:06:57
Sorry, I wasn't paying attention.
1:07:01
Little early for the detection to set in like this.
1:07:04
Poke, poke. Nice.
1:07:09
Why does it smell like White Castle?
