Conditions: Jackal (4HP), Sho (2VP, 4L, fatigued, disabled), Kevin (5HP), Dara (4HP, 2S), Xi (1HP), Li (1HP), Amazon (3HP, 1L), X12 (4HP), Carl (5HP, 2L)
"You said to take you down if you lost control," Carl responds to Raisa. "You can't get snitty about my options to do that now. Unless you call that in control," he adds.
Dara looks about ready to kill Carl, sharing Raisa's thoughts about Sho and more than a few angry and dark thoughts of her own enter the mix.
Jackal lets Kevin mimic him again. And for good measure, he mimics Li and Xi as well.
Same as before. You have a minute or so to do it, so may as well simply mimic what you did before as well.
"We will wait for him to awaken and see if he'll be useful to us," Xi says, nudging X12 with his toe. It takes about a minute, but he does awaken, and most of his injuries are already healed. After Li binds Sho tightly in the ooze she secretes from her hand, you all head quickly down the hall that Master Wen was carried down.
The hall is well worked, like the rest of the tunnels you've seen. You travel about fifty feet, turn a corner and come upon a pair of huge, ornate, double wooden doors. Though you are unfamiliar with it, the workmanship and age of the doors indicate that this cave network was likely used by some sort of ancient Chinese organization. The cave before the doors widen and become tiled in ancient marble, the walls in alabaster and the floor in onyx, with large braziers standing along the last twenty feet before the door. Everything has been restored beautifully and the value, historically and monetarily, are obvious even to the untrained eye.
Jackal's nose wrinkles, as does X12's, Li's and Kevin's. From ahead, you smell some sort of oil, like lamp oil or something. It's muted somewhat, probably because it is behind something. There are muffled voices that Kevin and Li can hear from beyond the door, at least two men.

Michelle, Vince
Conditions: Monica (4HP, 2S, 2L), Vince (5HP, 1L, 2S), Metal Mistress (1HP, 1L)
"Then keep up if you can then," Loco says simply, as stone showers upwards and outward like a fountain and he drills instantly down into the tunnel the Mole made before. He begins to radiate light as he drops down, probably a light source he carries on him. Even before Michelle, Vince and Monica leap in after him, the light is fading and he is quickly vanishing down the wide, straight tunnel much faster than any of you can move.
While Monica and Vince can see well enough, Michelle is completely blind in the tunnel, the only light coming from the rapidly fading Loco and the hole above her.
Sanjay
Only one scientist seems to take notice of Sanjay's comments. He looks up from his work on a console directly outside of the containment area Sanjay is in and presses a button, activating a transmitter.
"If we can't bring the levels of anti-toxin in your blood high enough, a blood transfusion won't help you and you'll die," he says matter of factly and without any indication of concern. "Our analysis also shows that you have transmutation abilities. I advise you not to breach containment in any way, or we will be forced to proceed with biohazard containment procedure six."
On that statement, one of the armored guards from each door step forward and the guard watching you moves slightly, cannons emerging from their shoulder plating, laser sights training onto you.
"Congratulations on joining EPIC," the scientist says flatly. "I'm sure it impressed Ms. Vaile greatly." With that, he turns off his end of the transmitter, appearing completely unaffected by your attempt to intimidate him.
You didn't get a high enough roll (11) to beat the lab employees base sense motive.
