Players: Lobo, Serel, Grim, Danthral, Questor, Fixer
Synopsis: The runners leave the sub bay and have to find out sharks are not their only problem
After your group was brought together you were flown out to an submarine supportship somewhere in the Pacific area. On that ship you were suplied with several necessities, among them diving gear and a dose of P4MO for those who took it. Then the first group was sent down in a sub to explore the first sub bay and try to find a way in, which led to so far to two shark attacks and resulted basically in a light wound for Grim. The group finally arrived at the hatch door to the inner area. Fixer arrived just at the Nostromo with another minisub, contact has still to be established.
Grim investigate's the controle's Lobo is investigating being very carefull not to touch it or anything else. Pating Lobo on the helmet to look at him, Grim gesture's by rolling up his shoulder's and shaking his head. Thinking "I dont know!"/
Questor pages: astral perception at the door/console
Danthrall holds up a hand, to signal that they should wait, and points at Questor, then the door. He holds up one hand, like a wall, and uses the fingers of the other to look like a person walking… and then passes the walking hand behind the wall hand… perhaps signalling /through/ it?
Lobo looks up and down at the gate to the inner area. He uses his, um, keen intelligence to figure out if opening this door will lead to an air lock (or in this case, water lock) or will it flood the room beyond?
Lobo notes Dan's gesture and gives himself a 'duh' thought. He nods and thinks he understands. One of the mages is gonna go check out the other side astrally!
The mechanism is fool proof. Three buttons. Open/close outter door, flood/unflood, open/close inner door. It seems currently only the open/close outer door button is active.
Grim looking at Dan and understanding his signal Grim gives him the thumbs up signal.
Questor Questors eyes begin to stare into nothingness as he leaves his body and taking a closer look at the door in the astral, cautionly exploring what may be behind the door.
You paged Questor with 'Astral Perception'.

You paged Questor with 'There is water there too and many micro organism life forms you were unable to see anything else but that so far.'.
Returning into his body Questor shrugs to Danthrall, signalizing he didnt see alot but mostly water.
Fixer pages: so the mini-sub is gonna come up to pick me up or there is another one?
You paged Fixer with 'They have three, the second with you aboard just arrived. Up to you if you want to try and get to the others in the centeral docking bay or want to enter via one of the four remining others.'.
Grim prepares his spear gun and aim's it twoards the door ready for anything that may attack.
Fixer gears up and descends on the next trip down. He options for the same point of entry, trying to catch up with everyone else.
Danthrall keeps his eyes towards the back of the group while everyone else has their attention on the door ahead. No more Shark sneak attacks, he hopes.
Questor gets into cover somewhere behind Lobo, getting ready for the door to open and spit out whatever may be in and waiting for them.
A strong rumble goes through the docking bay as after years of standing open and some small animals life like clams have used it's guiding as place to stick on, the long unused hatch door motors come to life. Fixers sub just enters the huge sub bay as the outer gate finally starts to decend and slowly closes this bay to the outside sea.
«Plot» Lobo says, "Give the bay the once over. If nothing crazy floats out that can cause harm. Lobo will be entering and waving the rest to enter as well. Once that is done the button to close the outter door will be pushed. Once outter door is closed, push the button to unflood the room."
Lobo watches the outter door close. He looks around at everyone and gives them the thumbs up gesture as he points to the button that reads, 'Flood/Unflood'.
Finally after a slow and obviously tedious proces of cuttin itself a path through the parasites that have started to grow on it the outer gate shuts close with a loud bang.
Grim looks around counting in everyone. Looking at Lobo and then to Danthrall giving Dan a worried look.
«OOC» Danthrall says, "So, the whole sub bay that we were inside before is now closed off from the outside? Just for clarification. We're not in an Airlock, but rather, the whole place becomes one? Or did I read it wrong?"
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "You got it right."
Lobo nods and, yep, pushes the unflood button.
Another set of long unused motors comes alive and the divers in here can feel the water getting drained away through huge grates all around the floor. The process of unflooding done at an surprising speed…surprising too for three sharks that finally flap helplessly on dry floor. As the huge room gets completely drained.
Others like a few small kraken just flee into the pump grates that seem to contain some water still.
As the water drains and the runners become non-bouyant… and get their feed back on solid ground, Danthrall waves Questor over towards the sharks, making a cutting signal across his throat, and then extends his hand in a manner similar to when he casts spells.
Fixer checks the instrument readouts (if any) for air quality, pressure and the such, enroute to meet with the group.
«Plot» Lobo says, "Note to self. If there is no food here. Those sharks will come in handy. :)"
Grim pats Lobo hemelt waving his finger around in a circle above his head signaling a sweep of the room thinkin "Maybe we can find something of point of interest or usefullness."
Questor pages: im gonna clean up this mess with the sharks from a distance
Questor pages: with a low force manabolt. roll it or RP it ? ;)
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "You wear LBA-gear fixer. You'd probably not want to put it off, as it is hard to put back on…"
You paged Questor with 'Just pose it.'.
Lobo checks his remaining oxygen in his LBA. He holds up his hand to wait a moment. Next he uses his spear gun once more to write in the sediment, "Keep your LBA on until we determine how things look on the other side of this door. We check this entire bay for five minutes tops before we open door to get inside."
Grim give's the OK sign to lobo and scan the area looking around for anything.
Questor nods and looks at the sharks. His eyes start to glow and you may see a horse with a horn flashing up where Questor stands. Then deadly looking blue streams leave Questors hands, hurling towards the sharks, helping them out of their waterless misery.
«OOC» Questor says, "I killed the sharks. Clean them from this world"
«OOC» Serel says, "The longer they're alive the less time they'll have to spoil."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Lobo: More than enough left so far. Oxygen I mean. You're barely arrived."
«Plot» Lobo says, "Ok if the rest opt to we are taking five to look around the bay for anything useful or maybe just idle curiosity. All that falls under the term 'recon'. Once they have done their thing, Lobo will be opening the inner door to the sub."

Grim continues to look around for another minute before returning to Lbo and shaking his head. Leaning down on the groud Grim write's "Nothing unusual, been awhile sence someone has been down here. I hope, Who knows how fast this enviroment could cover one's trace's!".
Aside from the fact, that you trapped a few sharks and that the subs are now sitting dry all looks normal. If you call a thick layer of clams on the walls normal.
Lobo pages: Are we expected to hike around the main part of the sub in full LBA?
Long distance to Lobo: Pelmen shrugs, "I do not tell you what you have to do…"
From afar, Lobo nods and grins. "I only asked because you said before that the LBA is hard to put back on. First chance Lobo gets, the gear comes off."
«OOC» Questor says, "How did the other team before us came here ? no sign of them ?"
«OOC» Grim says, "I think the same way, one of our missions I believe is to find what happen to them, and I was looking for any sign of life other then the sea itself."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Ummm, tell me how you suddenly know that, Questor? Have you aked as it was time to ask on the supply ship? I didn't see that…"
«OOC» Questor says, "no just logical. We were told we are the 2nd mission…and the first mission were just technicans"
«OOC» Danthrall says, "The team that was sent down, and lost contact."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "they would have tried the same way. They were set off and after that never reported back."
«OOC» Danthrall says, "Right. He's asking if we see any signs of them, I think."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "I'd assume they used another sub bay."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "And no, no signs so far."
Fixer cheacks out if there are any wireless matrix connections or even good old trix ports on the walls. Same for close circuit surveilance. Last but not least, he sets the radio scanner to jump freqs and see if there is any traffic on the net.
Danthrall pages: While there's nothing in here, I'm going to drop my sustained spell, and then go on a little astral jaunt.
You paged Danthrall with 'Where to?'.
Danthrall pages: First, the other sub bays.
Danthrall pages: Just to see if they are all water filled, or if any have been drained like ours.

Danthrall squats down, and crosses his knees. His eyes are now closed… he looks to be meditating.
You paged Danthrall with 'Okay…the neighouring bay has its inward door open and is flooded, a submarine parked in there, the others are flooded too. the outer two have large gaping holes to the outside.'.
Danthrall pages: Which of the 5 sub bays are we in?
You paged Danthrall with 'You see a huge shark swimming inside the controll area.'.
You paged Danthrall with 'You are in the center one.'.
Danthrall pages: Can I tell if it's awakend? And then… Bays 1 and 5 have holes to the outside, but their inside doors are shut. Bay 2's exterior is closed, interior open, and flooded. 3 has both shut, and has air. 4?
You paged Danthrall with 'The outside bays 1 and 5 have huge holes to the outside and bay one is open to the inside.'.
Danthrall pages: Bays 2 and 4?
You paged Danthrall with '4 is open to the inside. 2 to the outside'.
Danthrall pages: Big shark Dual Natured?
You paged Danthrall with 'No, just real huge.'.
Danthrall pages: Any wards keeping me out of the other sub in the next bay?
You paged Danthrall with 'no'.
Danthrall pages: How's the inside like?
You paged Danthrall with 'Hard to say from the astral, looks like any other technical device.'.
Danthrall pages: Anything keeping me out past sub control?
You paged Danthrall with 'Aside from the fact that you move through a living fog soup? No.'.
Danthrall pages: Ok. Moving onto main-storage.
You paged Danthrall with 'Where do you enter mainstorage?'.
Danthrall pages: Lets go with top of the map side.
You paged Danthrall with 'floor or ceiling level? That area is…10 meters high'.
From afar, Danthrall likes to float around the ceilings.
You paged Danthrall with 'then you enter an air filled area. below you can see dulnatured critters.'.

«OOC» Danthrall hopes 4 is good enough.
You paged Danthrall with 'Merrows and they watch you warily. One of them seems magically active.'.
From afar, Danthrall flits around the storage area to try to prevent LOS, and get a look of the rest of the place, too. "How flooded is the storage space?
You paged Danthrall with 'About half flooded, that means the gate is all submerged.'.
You paged Danthrall with 'or better the gates are both'.
Danthrall pages: Ok. Enough advanced scouting. Back to the body!
Lobo looks around, noting everyone has done their thing. He pushes the button to open the inner door, standing back and on guard.
Grim leans his hand out gesturing Lobo to continue to the door.
Grim signaling everyone to hurry, and walks over to the door looking back.
Serel keeps watch with the others, waiting for the inner doors to finally be opened so that she can get out of this stupid suit.
As the button is pushed, the motors start with an extremely high pitch then stop. The display unit reads, "Unusual motor load to override press button again."
Having taken care of the sharks in a way PETA would not hate, Questor moves to the door, behind Lobo and Grim.

Danthrall quickly stands up, and looks around frantically for the others.
Serel rushes up to Danthrall, eyebrows raised in question.
Danthrall points to the dead shark bodies, then to the door, then back to the sharks and holds his hands about half a foot apart, then back to the door, and holds them at least twice as far apart.
Grim catche's Dan movement and grabs Lobo's shoulder crossing his hand back in forth over his throt to tell Lobo no.
Serel blinks, mouth an 'O'.
Lobo turns and looks at Danthrall. He nods in understanding as he readies his speargun.
«Auto-Judge[]» Questor (#6955) rolls MagicalThreats (to Pelmen) for "WTF is that behind the door that scares Danthrall.":

You paged Questor with 'Some kind of shark?'.
You paged Questor with 'probably big?'.
You paged Questor with 'does it need to be magical to be dangerous? Some sharks can get pretty large.'.
Fixer approaches the door controls and points out the middle (assuming "flood/drain" button). He points at it before pointing at the open door button. Then he talks in bubbles. Bubble, bubble, bub bub bubble, bubble.
«OOC» Fixer says, "can i scratch some shit in english on the wall using a spear tip?"
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Yes"
«OOC» Grim says, "Yah but lets just kill it then…."
Making gestures that look like a ghosts that walks through a wall an attack, Questor tries to get Danthralls attention, asking what he thinks about.
Fixer strats scratching with his spear into the gunky wall, giving up half way through it. it seems he want part English (WATRR) part hyroglyphs (arrow point at door) and part caveman (a crude picture of a monster, with sharp teeth and bird feet). That takes a few minutes and he would sweat if he wasn't in liquid already.
Danthrall looks around at everyone else, in frustration… then he gives a big theatrical shrug of his shoulders, and points to the door, indicating that it may as well be opened. He tosses his spear gun and it's extra spears to Lobo… he won't be needing them himself, and maybe Lobo can shoot them both at once. That done, he moves off to the left side of the hatch, and braces himself against the corner of the sub bay.
Fixer will have to travel as far away from the door as possible and find anything hardened (like the mini sub) to hide in. If possible.
Grim steps away from the door turning to head to the far end of the room shaking his head as he walks past Danthrall.
Questor moeves away from the door to the end of the room, hiding behind what he can find, but can still see the door.
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "The only thing in the bay are your subs…"
«OOC» Fixer says, "I'll hide in one of them then, i'm too young to get crushed"
Lobo presses the flood room button once more.
Questor pages: My spirit has the order to confuse the big thing when the door opens ;)
«Plot» Lobo says, "Here's the plan.. yes.. we are wasting far too much time on just getting in this place. Flooding the chamber again because Lobo is assuming the other side is flooded as well. Why? Cuz there is a big fucking shark on the other side. Once chamber floods and pressure equalizes he will open the door and be prepared to attack a big shark."
Grim places his back feet and back against the wall, pressing hard to make sure there is little room to slam as pissible.
«Plot» Lobo is trying to move this along and will very soon begin power posing in order to accomplish that goal :D
The floodpumps start to do their work filling up the room with water qutie nicely. This is done by far slower then the emptying of the room though, for obvious reasons, no use to whirl stuff around.
Once the room fills, Lobo readies both spear guns, one in each hand, aiming them at the open door way. He looks at whomever is standing near the button panel and gives a nod of his helmeted head for the door to be opened.
Grim raises his spear gun steadying it twoards the door while slowly walking forward.
Danthrall nods, and floats over to the button. He taps it, already drawing forth magical energy from the world around him. It flows easier now that he isn't maintaining a spell.
Questor gives his speargun to Grim.
Grim grabs Questor spear gun and steady's it twoards the door, keeping and eye on the door and Lobo.
This time the door opens easily, as the water is not pressing as much against the door guiding.

«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "So far the shark seems unaware of you. Just curious."
Danthrall's eyes close yet again, and for any who can see the shark clearly will notice a ghostly image of the man floating next to the shark. It raises it's hands next to it's face, sticks out it's tongue, and darts away towards one of the other open bays.

«OOC» Grim says, "thats a good idea but we have to kill it,"
You will see the shark just have a look at that image and ignore it.
Danthrall's ghostly image looks like it sighs, and then vanishes… while his real eyes open back up.
Fixer shoulders the weapon and waits for the tank to get aggro.

Questor pages: whats the TN for it ? (manabolt)
You paged Questor with '2'.
You paged Questor with '+2 for vision impairing'.
Grim squits his eye's noticing a small yet big shadow off in the distance of the room.
Questor pages: so my TN is 2+2+4 ?
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Just another info. The water imparis +2 to all normal sight and +1 to lowlight here. vision mods."
«OOC» Danthrall says, "…carp."
You paged Questor with 'No you have just +2 as it has no cover from you.'.

«OOC» Danthrall applauds.
«OOC» Grim cheers
When the door opens, Questor clearly see the biggest shark that he has ever seen. Noticing the shark is yet unaware of his presents he begins to deeply concentrate. His eyes burn like the sun and a blue stream mixed with red stripes leaves his hand hurling towards the big shark, striking it with brutal force and crashing his small brain, putting an end to the sharks life.
Danthrall had begun to cast, but hadn't gathered enough energy to get off a spell before Questor's Manabolt zipped past. He sees the shark writhe and then stop, and glances back over his shoulder to the Unicorn Shaman. He gives him a thumbs up, and goes swimming into the sub control, turning to the left and heading for the controls to some of the other open bays.
Serel grins and takes off after Danthrall, turning towards the right to head for the other bays.
Grim follows Danthrall but stoping just before the door to examin the shark and its massive size.
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Classical white shark type 6 m length"
Lobo steps in to the hallway. He begins to move to the left to examine the other sub bay doors. Once that is accomplished he does the same for the sub bay doors to the right.
Fixer will proceed into sub control and look to examine other bays as well as helping his team mates out of shutting them and draining them dry. And… a dataline or port access is still a thing on his mind.
Danthrall turned to the left, and is heading that way to close Bay 5.
Grim head twoards the controle room following Danthrall after looking about the shark.
«Plot» Lobo says, "Just checking integrity and if any are open they get closed."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Two are open besides yours and that's Bay one and four. If you check, the door will close."
Serel helps close doors and cycle water.
«Plot» Lobo says, "Good. We want to get to the next area of the sub. This area is full of water and shouldn't be I bet.
What kind of door leads to the next section of the sub? Airlock like a sub bay or just a pressure door?"
Questor moves up to the White Shark he has only seen in some classic movies from the past century, taking a brief look upon the monster and then heads into the direction Fixer is heading, but several meters behind.
As you check the door to Bay one you will see a large gaping hole in the outside wall of Sub Bay One."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "You close door one?"
Questor pages: conjuring new spirit

Questor pages: ill take that ;)
Fixer will try to close bay 1 with anyone else who will try to do so also. Examining the hole visualy for 15 seconds should not hurt either.
Danthrall hits the panels for door 5, closing it andthe gaping hole in this side of the sub, too. One it's locked, he turns and gives a signal to the others.
Grim stands next to Danthrall making sure to not touch any controle's and giving and look out for anything that can come there way.

«OOC» Fixer says, "anything interesting about the hole? ripped from inside or outide, size, anything astral?"
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Ripped from the outside. No astral signature and if there was one once it would long have gone."
«OOC» Fixer says, "size?"
Danthrall points down into bay 4, since it's still open, at the first crew's sub, then to the shark. The outer doors are closed, so he figures it's alright to leave this bay open so they can scope it out once the water has been drained.
Lobo returns from his own recon of the bay doors and bays which might be open. He nods to Danthrall.
Danthrall signals at bay 2, and puts his hands together closer to his body, then has them apart further way from it.
Grim looks at Danthrall in confussion of what he is trying to say.
Once you have the door to Bay one is closed. Some hidden mechanism starts the pumps for this room and you realize you will be dry in here soon.
Danthrall points at bay 4, and does the opposite gesture… open closer, together further away.
«Plot» Lobo says, "Bay one had big gaping hole. It was briefly inspected the the door was closed. Aside from our bay door (bay 3) are there any other sub bay doors open at this time?"
=No
«Plot» Pelmen says, "No"
«Plot» Danthrall says, "Bay 5 also had a big hole. Bay 2 is closed to us. Bay 4 is open to us."
«Plot» Danthrall says, "I never shut bay 4, so we could go have a look at the other sub."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "sorry forgot bay 4…still the pumps start to work once bay one is closed."
«Plot» Lobo says, "Good so this area can be drained right?"
«Plot» Pelmen says, "In fact it is just getting drained."
From afar, Danthrall will project, manifest, and tell our sub pilots that they can radio and have the repair crews start to head down and prep their equipment. Might as well have them be productive while we're killing shit.
Danthrall moves into bay 4 to check up on things, and to be sure the space is clear.
Very soon after the controll room is dry. and with it your sub bay and sub bay 4. The bad news is you find the remains of one of the techs, barely recognizable by the tattered remanins of work clothes.
«Plot» Lobo says, "Plan is. Once this room is drained and appears sound, get to our sub and get the call out for the repair crews to begin repairs on sub bay 1 wall and sub bay 5 wall. During that process we will be entering deeper in to the sub to recon. step by step.."
«Plot» Danthrall says, "Already gotten to our sub. Being a mage is fun."
«OOC» Danthrall says, "But, we shouldn't leave them exposed to the open ocean… and it will take them time to prep their repair equipment. We should keep going while they are getting ready to fix things."
Grim follows Danthrall not really seeing anything he can do to help.
Fixer examines the corpse, checking out for what could have killed it and when.
Questor helps Fixer to examine the remainings of the poor soul, formerly called a technican.
Most probably a shark killed him, when is hard to say.
Serel heads for the control panel into the next area, seeing if anything is damaged or if they might be able to get through.
«OOC» Danthrall says, "Anything else in Bay 4?"
Questor pages: does aura reading or so work on dead bodies ?;)
You paged Questor with 'Yes, you can in fact its common use in the sixth world.'.
Fixer continues on his treck in his heavy/un-natural second skin. He checks for CCTV, rigger or matrix ports and finally, the next doors, leading into main storage.
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "perception rolls for those examining the doors to main storage."
Lobo performs his idle investigation. Good news about metal walls, ceilings and floors. Not many hiding spots, easy to peruse. When he is finished he heads to the door that leads main storage, standing near Fixer and waits.
Once done Sweeping through Bay 4, Danthrall returns to Sub Control, and closes Door 4. He moves to Door 3, and projects to the sub's that brought them down, checking with the pilots about how long until the repair crews arrive.

«OOC» Danthrall really dosen't want to sit and wait after we kill everything for the crews to move down here, and then unpack, and then get to work.
You paged Serel with 'Water is leakin in there. the door were obviously never thought to be a full water seal from the other side.'.
«Auto-Judge[]» Questor (#6955) rolls Intelligence for "Main Storage Door":
2 2 4 4 5 5
«OOC» Danthrall takes that back… we could sleep while that's happening. "Carry on.
You paged (Serel, Lobo) with 'Those are no air-lock style doors.'.
To (Lobo, Pelmen), Serel pages: Oh goody.
«Auto-Judge[]» Grim (#6903) rolls Intelligence:

«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Any stuff open, that I failed to ans‘wer"
Questor pages: anything special about the dead corpse ?;)
You paged Questor with ’No.'.
Danthrall holds up his hands, wiggling his fingers and moving them around… and then points at Lobo's speargun… then back to the door.
«Plot» Lobo says, "Which door?"
«OOC» Fixer is just checking out the next set of doors, how to open them and if any indicitor if it's flooded
«Plot» Danthrall says, "The one that leads to main storage."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "There is two."
«OOC» Danthrall says, "The one that everyone is gathered around, then."
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, " Perception for those investigation door that did not do so far."
«Auto-Judge[]» Danthrall (#7693) rolls Intelligence (to Pelmen):

You paged Danthrall with 'Not unexpectedly there is water leaking this is no air-lock door.'.
Danthrall taps Lobo on the shoulder, and points at the water seeping through the door leading to the storage room.
Lobo looks down at the water. He frowns.
You paged Lobo with 'Yep, water trickling in, not much but it definitely proving the other side has water.'.
«OOC» Danthrall says, "You know what? I'm gonna project and signal for Questor to follow me. See if there's any reason to keep these damned outfits on any longer."
Lobo pages: Yeah and Lobo and the player over here has no idea if opening the door will compromise the entire sub..
You paged Lobo with 'Sorry. If you cannot give me a good reason of how you'd know, I cannot help you.'.
Danthrall gets everyone around the door's attention. At everyone but questor, he signals back to the minisub's that brough them down here that are still in Bay 3, and then points at the spear guns, then the helmet, and makes a gesture that looks like he should take it off… but dosen't. Then forms his hand into the shape of a gun like most kids do when they play…
When he's done with that, he get's Questor's attention, and then does that 'walking through walls' signal he came up with earlier. He then sits down against a wall, cross-legged, and closes his eyes.
Danthrall's astral form appears next to his sitting body, and he waves for Questor to follow before he dives through the wall at the upper portion of it again, to put himself at the top of the main-storage room.
«OOC» Danthrall says, "What do we need to roll to scout the rest of the ship?"
«ADMIN» Pelmen says, "Depends on what you want to know…"
«OOC» Danthrall says, "First, I'm just checking to see if there's any other leaks…. quick round trip for that."
Questor sees how Danthrall tries to get his attention and hmm..to join him on his Astral Patrol…Questor sits down, closes his eyes, and Questors spirit leaves his body, following Danthralls astral spirit.
Lobo notes the mages doing that astral thing. He simply stands and waits for their return.
To (Pelmen, Questor), Danthrall pages: Any other sections completely flooded? We can deal with partial flooding. We don't have to have the LBas for that.
Fixer does the overwatch also, he peaks in and out of astral, just to see what is going on in both realms.
You paged (Danthrall, Questor) with 'Okay…several leaks, none as large as the one in bay 1 though. Inside the crew quarters and the recreationalarea is fully flooded. Theoretically those leak could be closed from the outside…but one is guarded. By an dual kraken like thing. There is more of those in recreational area if you look. Bridge is fully dry and ractor room is fully dry Hydroponics is about half flooded, but as that is a huge room, that would mean swimming as well,'.
To (Pelmen, Questor), Danthrall pages: Dual? Assensing.
To (Pelmen, Questor), Danthrall pages: Just have BG count penalties here?
You paged (Danthrall, Questor) with 'The nostromo and her current state cause a bg of 2 even outside.'.

To (Pelmen, Questor), Danthrall pages: Crap… stand.
Serel waves to get Lobo's attention, points to him, to herself, then makes a walking motion and points to the sub. Then, she hold her hands apart, then one above the other, then raises her eyebrows, then starts off towards the sub, motioning him along.
Lobo thinks he understands. He nods and begins to follow Serel to the sub.
To (Pelmen, Questor), Danthrall pages: Wait… The water going into the whole place came seeping in through the sub control doors, I thought…
You paged (Danthrall, Questor) with 'Who said that?'.
You paged Questor with 'The thing is aggressive, very. That's about all you can see.'.
To (Pelmen, Questor), Danthrall pages: No one. But it only stands to reason that if water is flowing out now that there isn't water here, that it should have flowed in when there was water here. Especially if it's a standard atmo in there. The pressure should push water in.
You paged (Questor, Danthrall) with 'The other leaks except the one guarded are kinda sealed. Some kind of poly foam, but it wuld seem the things were able to remove the stuff.'.
Questor pages: did 20 minutes pass (with all the searching etc.) and i lost my L stun ?
You paged Questor with 'If you do stuff you do not loose the stun. So no. Even on Astral patrol you won'd loose it.'.
Questor pages: ah ok
You paged (Danthrall, Questor) with 'Okay…what else?'.
From afar, to (Pelmen, Questor): Danthrall think's he'll go back now.
Questor pages: ill follow Danthrall of course
Lobo is following Serel to the submarine to get the stowed gear from the box.
To (Pelmen, Questor), Danthrall pages: Well, now that we've scoped the place out, I'm thinking of heading back and going to attack the merrows in the main area.
Grim is standing around Danthrall as he darts for any fish that come's his way.
Fixer picks up overwatch over the two passed out mages. He swings from astral to reality with thermo, cycling through night vision. Lastly, his favorite sense, sound, as much as it is probably hindered in the liquid filled suit. He watches the mages and thinks of escape routes and strategies if need be.
Danthrall opens his eyes, and he stands up, streching his legs. He runs to try to catch the people trying to get their gear, in an attempt to keep them from opening the waterproof containers… there's more swimming ahead.
Returning into his body, Questor opens his eyes and moves his arms around like he would have several arms and snaps in the air like catching something and holding it..and that everyone can see easyily must be being really big.
Grim looking the other way not seeing Danthrall run off turn to see Danthrall leaving, waving his hands in the air.
Lobo stops short when Danthrall comes in to view. He picks up on what Danthrall is trying to convey. He too steps over and taps Serel on her back.
Fixer doesn't really know what to make of all of this. He just stands by.
Grim wave's his hand in danthralls face trying to see what he was running off about. Looking at what Serel and Lobo are doing.
Serel looks back, notes Danthrall, also stops.
Danthrall points at the doors leading to Bay 3, and closes his hands together… then wiggling his fingers from low, he moves his arms up until they're above his head, then he points further in front of them, towards the area of the Sub they're moving to.
