GM NOTE: Pulling back with the rest toward the entrance, guarding the back against enemies if they catch up. "Keep pullin back! Everyone to the exit, we're done with this joint! " Swinging his bolt pistol about to ward off an encroaching rat he began pulling back to the others, acting as a rear guard with both weapons ready to take on any particularly swift hunters.
Steve also ran back towards the cave entrance, only to see two sludge jellies attacking the group, one of them going straight towards him (OOC the one that Orion shot). Orion cried something about not being able to kill that ugly fucktard with bullets, but Steve didn't feel like using one more frag grenade if not 100% necessary. So Steve knelt down to compensate for the pain he felt in his left hip, and fired couple of shots with his plasma gun at the mass of slime that was coming their way. Perhaps it can absorb bullets, but can it absorb super heated plasma? GM NOTE: Attacking 1xSludge Jelly
The group advanced quickly, until they arrived in to the room with the huge sludge jellys. Jimmy fired at the rats following them, striking another down with his shot. Deran killed 1x giant rat The plasma burst straight through the damn creature. In any other beast it would have no doubt ruined its internal organs, but this thing appeared to lack any in the first place. Danny moved forward, unleashing a torrent of flame at one of the jelly (not the one you guys shot at). He set it on fire, and it seemed to slowly melt away. Akragth killed 1x sludge jelly. As the jelly took the group's attention, another lashworm struck, grabbing Johan by his neck. It tore away at his neck, ripping a deep hole in to the flesh. Johan suffered -3w Johan suffered the injury: deep laceration. Unless the wound is closed before the mission's end, he will bleed to death. Remaining enemies 7xgiant rats, 3x lashworms, 1x sludge jelly Remaining Friendly Count Diggers - 2x hired gun, 1x trader (L) Escaped 1x lashworm Deceased 4x hired gun Kills Grall - 1x Giant Rat Deran - 3x giant rat, 1x lashworm Akragth - 3x giant rats, 1x lashworm, 1x watcher, 1x sludge jelly Colapse - 1x shamber, 8x giant rat Urian - 1x tangler, 6x giant rat Fox - 1x giant rat, 1x lashworm Alldoom - 1x shambler Wounds Jimmy -1 (healed +1) Johan -7 (healed +2) Andrea -3 (healed +2) Orion -1 (healed +1) Noctunis -3 (healed +1) Steve -3
GM NOTE: Second verse same as the first, rear guard duty. "DOC! GET TO JOHAN!" Jimmy placed his bets on the group dealing with the jelly but there were plenty more rats following along, he stood his ground ready to hold off the pack of rats as they clambered forward in the darkness.
Jennifer stood beside Jimmy, and between them they laid down enough fire to deter the rat's advance. The rats seemed to understand the folly of their pursuit, and started to withdraw from the chase.
"Fuck!" Steve cursed as his shot did not damage. Stupid plasma and stupid jelly. Just my luck. He slung back his rifle and pulled out twin bolt pistols. But he didn't shoot at the jelly, in fact, he started to back away from the creature since he had no weapons to deal with it. "DANNY! BURN THIS ONE AS WELL!" he yelled but in the same time, he saw Johan fell to a lashworm strike. Furious, Steve started to fire his pistols at the creature, wanting to avenge his friend. GM NOTE: Atttacking 1xlashworm
GM NOTE: Going to help Johan and kill the lashworm. "Fucking worm BASTARDS!" Retreating from the cloud of poisonous green stuff, Gordon went to try and rip down the worm that go Johan.
GM NOTE: (If allowed, Botting Bjorn's Medic to use last med-pack on Johan to deal with injury) Jimmy is standing guard over Johan. OOC: Since Bjorn hasn't posted for awhile, and we kinda need the Doc, and I doubt he would let someone die <.< Ima just bot him. The Doc rushed right over under the cover of Jimmy who was right at his side, dragging away the wounded ganger so their Medic could work his magic with that last med-kit. "Hang in there ya mook, this just aint been your trip has it? Ain't been good for any of us. "
The second jelly struck Danny, sending him flying backward, his flamer lost as he soared. Danny -1w Steve shot at the lashworm, but its small size once again proved difficult to shoot at. It retreated in to the rock, no doubt moving location even as Steve shot toward it. [worm retreated, as above] Doc healed Johan +2w. The bleeding has been stopped, but Johan will be unable to fight, or walk, for the remainder of the mission. OOC: Botting is fine, it's somewhat unfortunate that the guy who picked medic is then not too active. Remaining enemies 7xgiant rats, 3x lashworms, 1x sludge jelly Remaining Friendly Count Diggers - 2x hired gun, 1x trader (L) Escaped 1x lashworm Deceased 4x hired gun Kills Grall - 1x Giant Rat Deran - 3x giant rat, 1x lashworm Akragth - 3x giant rats, 1x lashworm, 1x watcher, 1x sludge jelly Colapse - 1x shamber, 8x giant rat Urian - 1x tangler, 6x giant rat Fox - 1x giant rat, 1x lashworm Alldoom - 1x shambler Wounds Jimmy -1 (healed +1) Johan -7 (healed +2) Andrea -3 (healed +4) Orion -1 (healed +1) Noctunis -3 (healed +1) Steve -3 Danny -1
Steve stopped firing and without further ado, he ran towards the place where Danny's flamer dropped. He made as much distance from the jelly and the lashworm as he could, while keeping an eye on the slime crapper and the last place where that worm-shit was last seen. No matter, the exit was right there, but the stupid animals were in his way. They should be smarter than this, preventing entire team to flee. There was no point in their behavior, but guess that's why they were animals and lived where they lived, in this dark and gloomy place. He ran with all speed he could muster, after being wounded and all, and went for the flamer on the ground. If he got it, he would use it to set that jelly aflame. GM NOTE: Attempting to take fallen flamer and attack 1xjelly (with the flamer)
