[GRIM TALES] Wulf Ratbane's SLAVELORDS of CYDONIA

[Hjorimir]

OOC: Bill rolls a 17 for his attack; and scores 10 points of damage!

 

[ragboy]

OOC: T. Rawley's next three attacks are here: http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=149952. Damage on the first roll: http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=149954 -- are we spending action points to convert threats to crits?

Rawley backs off into the mouth of the passage (5' step I think) behind him, bile rising in the back of his throat. He levels his pistol at the hell creature and fires...

If Joshua is holding his action for just the right time, now seems good.

Poking a look in at lunch, not really any time......

I'll shoot now and at every possibility until creature dies or other path seems obvious.
Please handle for me. No time for me to do more. No action points at this time.

I'm willing to let other Players dictate Joshua's action for the next 36 hrs real time, or you Wulf, whichever is prefered. I may have some on-line time this PM.

Teddy was covered in blood and gore. Much of it was his own.

He'd been in lots of fights before. Fights with bigger men. Fights where he'd been seriously wounded. Once, in Hell's Kitchen, he'd taken a knife to the gut and a cleaver to the small of his back and left that Murdock bastard bleeding in an alley.

This wasn't Hell's Kitchen.

And this . . . thing wasn't some thug with an attiude. Teddy didn't know what it was and he didn't really care. He just knew he wasn't getting taken out by some effing clipper ship lizard.

Teddy grabs the things jaws as they grind into his leg. His scarred arms tighten and PULL as he tries to free himself.

"ARRRGGGGHHHH!"

Grapple roll + action point to get the hell away from this stupid lizard coming soon.

Teddy gets an 11+3 (for his action point)

"ARRGGHHHH!"

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

Teddy grabbed the thing's jaws. Sharp, conical teeth-- luckily, designed more for holding than ripping or tearing-- dug into his hands as he pulled its jaws apart, slowly, slowly forcing the creature back and away with herculean effort. His arms and legs quivered for a moment as Teddy regained the upper hand, bending the creature back and over.

The rest of the group stood in amazement for the briefest of moments, watching the scene unfold in slow motion, before they were suddenly galvanized back into action. Almost as one, Haskins, Rawley, Joshua, and Bill stepped forward and filled its body full of lead.

The creature shook violently and slumped to the floor, dead.








nakia, when you provide a link to your results, make sure you get the results link, and not just the server link.

T. Rawley blew a sigh and leaned against the wall trying to get his racing heart under control. He slid his pistol back into its holster and shakily rolled a cigarette.

 

[Hjorimir]

Concerned that the noise may bring more unwanted guests, Bill turns around and guards the hallway. "I hope nobody heard that."

 

[Fenris]

"Alright, let's settle down now. Excellent work there Mr. Caryle. Ms. Nielson what do you need to attend to Mr. Caryle nd Mr. Hambrick? If Mr. Brown will watch our rear, Mr. Sutton, why don't you circle the pool on the right and I will take the left" And Haskins picks up his pistol, wiping the muck from the floor off on his trousers, and re-holstering it. Before heading around the pool, he takes out his bayonette, and affixes it to the Martini-Henry and chambers a new round. "At this rate, Mr. Sutton, you're going to run out of tobacco" he says wryly.

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

While Haskins, Bill, and Rawley scouted out the rest of the room, and took up defensive positions at the two new corridors they revealed, Brigitta helped Teddy and Joshua over to a somewhat cleaner corner where she could attend to their wounds.
