Message: <blockquote data-quote="megamania" data-source="post: 2966830" data-attributes="member: 9255">THE CREATION SCHEMASEGMENT 2437/08/06“The Cannith Labs Welcome”Lady Elaydren was happy to finally arrive at the hidden and secret Cannith base.  After the long trip to the island and the attack by the White Dragon, she felt the need to complete this quickly.   The ship stopped and let her and her ground crew off then returned to safety of the high skies.It was very cold and the wind was picking up again.   She was uncertain if it was snowing or if this was wind blown snow in the air.  Visibility was worsening rapidly. As she reached the main gate her bodyguard, Strike, a Warforged ranger, suddenly raised a hand for silence and stopping.  It peered at the ground and sought clues to what was inside.  “What is it Strike?”“Others are here.  Inside the lab.”Having learned to trust the warforged, She pulls out a wand of detection.  Suddenly several spikes strike her and the other Cannith humans.  Several of the men rush into the building for cover.  Others turn to face their attackers.  Red chitin covered insect-like creatures rush them.  “&%#@*!!!” Curses Lady Elaydren.  Strike moves in and tries to defend her as best as it can.They hold back one wave then another comes.  This one includes several creatures that are 15-feet tall and hovers.  They resemble spiky red snakes with giant eyeless heads.   Beams of invisible energy rush out from these and wash over Strike and the humans.   Most of the Cannith soldiers fall down stunned and unable to defend themselves. Distracted by the loss of her troops, Elaydren and Strike are overwhelmed and pinned.   Acid and poisons drip from the creature’s mouths.They communicate in fiendish and bludgeon the intruders into oblivion.  The people that did not flee into the building are taken back to the Tyranid hive.</blockquote>
