The Ark::: A RPG Session Continues: Escaping the tunnels


Xephos rises his mighty blade and slowly cuts through the webs surrounding the trapped man (escape artist roll 18 + 4 = 22) and he falls to the ground, completely intact.


The bound man falls with to the ground, before hitting, he twirls in the air and lands on one knee, his right arm extended in a combat ready position; clearly this person knows how to survive and now he is freed.


From his kneeling position, the freed man looks around and acquaints himself with the room he has been stuck in for solong. The first things, obviously, were the 2 humanoids that cut him loose. "Cheers for the help" he grumbled, hating to rely on any form of assistance.


Grexas looks to the other two men, and nods in response to the thanks. "Now I don't know if it's the right way out of here, but it's the way that doesn't lead to that thing. So let's go back this way." He says, hoping to avoid a fight before they can regain strength. "Do you have any weapons?" He says looking to the man they just saved. Grexas moves closer to help them search figuring no one would wander around unarmed. rolled 16+0 search



As Grexas looks about the cavern, he notices the walls kind of crumble, like if the rock were not that hard in that particular spot. He moves behind the pyramid of brains and he discovers a corpse still wearing a finds a full tech helmet with a visor, and electronics of some sort attached to it. The corpse is dressed on the black and silver uniform of their previous pursuers, the St. George's Guardsmen.
Under the corpse, he discovers an elecronic datapad of some sort. And right next to it, it`s a recognizable .50 rifle and what it looks like a traveller`s bag.



"Let me see that helmet..." Xephos mutters, grabbing the helmet with a brief nod from Grexas and seaching it (roll computer use 19 + 2 = 21) and finds out several things:

System power = Minimum
Power source = Broken
Defences = Bullet resistant (+2 AC)

Functions

Visor changes (Hue, Transparency) = Disabled (Limited power)
UV ray protection = OFF, Disabled (Limited Power)

END OF SEQUENCE


 
Davos slings the rifle on his back. Checking that he has a magazine with 6 shots in it. He then looks about him, shrugs and starts walking down the far exit corridor, the way the unknown creature went; his movements are swift and silent, and Grexas and Xephos almost lost sight of him.
The path sloped down and came to a 3 way intersection.
After a quick look he sees the corridor to his right there is a greenish glow coming from somewhere and italso gets darker. The corridor to his left, he notices the light source increases a bit, the centre corridor only gets darker. He is drawn to the centre for his love of the dark yet he pauses for a moment to see if the pair are following.

Grexas starts to follow, the man, against his better judgement. It is better to stick together at least. He follows him down the tunnel listening closely. rolled 13+4=17. Grexas then starts to observe the man he is following."Hmmm, I hear something coming from the right." He says to the man, still thinking this is a bad idea.
