The debris looks like slime, rocks, dirt, and some sort of large brown scales. The liquid is scattered around pool there are several different shallow pools of it but they are only a inch or two deep at most.
 

Jonathan frowns. Scales? What were they keeping in here? Reptiles?

"Marcus, this is not making much sense. A significant amount of time could not have elapsed since Dr. Hardiman escaped from her kidnappers. If this is the pool she was talking about, I don't see how it could have been emptied of any parasites in the time since her escape. Do you by chance see a drain down there? I wonder if any liquid has drained down into a sub-chamber beneath the pool." Grabbing a the piece of iron frame from around the edge of the pool to use as a poking device, Jonathan walks to the shallow end and jumps down into the pool.
 


Jonathan jumps into the pool and looks around. The pool bottom is slick with scum and the brown scale-like objects are the size of his hand. Finding the drain, it looks to be open. It is only about 8 inches in diameter.
 

Jonathan nods to Marcus. "Understood."

Using the metal frame to help keep his balance in the slick pool, Jonathan stands near the drain to see if any liquid is in the drain. Jonathan also sniffs the air deeply to ascertain if the bitter smell is stronger near the drain.

OOC: Nasty visions through this player's mind! You've got me a little freaked out now, Gomez. Love that Cthulhu rush!
 

The bitter acidic smell is the strongest here in the pool. The brownish liquid seems to be the source.

Jonathan looks down into the drain and sees that the protective screen that would provent something from being sucked into the drian has been cut away. A layer of brown liquid can been seen about a foot down the drain. Suddenly a surge of large bubbles burst up from the liquid, scaring the *CED* out of a already nervous Jonathan. The liquid swishes around for a couple of seconds and then calms down.
 

Jonathan breathes deeply to calm his racing heart. "Marcus...that smell is worse down here. Maybe its just from that brownish liquid sitting in the trap, I don't know. I suggest we take a look at what is beyond those stairs and in those showers over there. I'd like to see the condition of any other drains around here as well." With that, Jonathan turns around and carefully tries to siddle his way across the slick pool bottom.

OOC: Who says you can't scare someone in a PBP. Nice one, Gomez.
