Have you checked ezmodo yet?

Recollection:

Your team needs to find the command center of the base and deactivate the Synomium device, because its AI got damaged and it treats you as hostile intruders and locked down the whole base. After fighting through a group of frenzied Tasoths you got up to the upper floor. There you have been ambushed by not one but two Bio-drones from the southern room, you decided to use up all your grenades to get rid of them blowing up both. 38 got hit by the upper left pincer but he should still be okay for the rest of the mission

>culling of the archives
Wait, what's the point of having archives if they're just going to deletes shit? Or was there some sort of server crash?

>>11651740
it is a long story check supttg for the whole story, putting it short the server got over the max brandwidth, and was also full of imagedump threads and stuff that they did not find necessary to keep.

>>11651740
Because infinite storage space isn't free, and people continue to archive image dumps and porn threads, even though the suptg archives clearly state PLEASE DO NOT ARCHIVE IMAGE DUMPS OR PORN THREADS BECAUSE THEY WILL BE DELETED HLRHELHASLFKHAFKLHAELFKEA

SUCCESS!
I managed to salvage the previous threads from ezmodo! Thanks for the advice again!

>>11652013
i just read a little bit of the first one, please go on

As the noise from the Bio Drone’s engines goes silent 38 gets up from the ground. The room behind you is filled with smoke and dust from the violent explosions, you see little but also hear nothing from there anymore. 08 and 68 seem fine they are listening as well.

>>11652313
i ask if someone else notices enemys,
and take cover to make sure not to get hurt

>>11652351
Since you are in the small room nobody sees more than you. 08 says that he will resume drilling through the next door, he suggests that you use a lateral sense implant if you have any to try and detect things in the darkness. 32 decides to help out with the drilling while 68 is on guard by the doorway.

>>11652398
i wait until we drilled through the door and take a careful look through it

>>11652422
Soon the job is done and you force the door open manually, with 68 on your side 32 and 08 hugging the walls you look into the next room. The dim emergency light shows that it is empty you see an elevator in the middle and some ruined collapsed wall debris on the opposite wall, to your right on the south there is another door currently closed.

>>11652422
i check the condition of the elevator

The elevator seems to be fine and is powered up, examining it further it leads only downwards back to the lower level where you started, however since you are in the opposite side of the base now it should be a different section of the site that was sealed of from the side where you started.

i check the southern door,
if it needs to be drilled to pass i ask the teamleader if he wants to use the elevator or check whats behind the door

The southern door is not locked, it is damaged and the locking mechanism surrendered itself to the erosion, you force it open and check inside. You notice that this is a ventilation room two large tubes are leading to the lower floors otherwise the room seems empty and undamaged. There is some machinery in the opposite end.

>>11652747
i sneak into the room, carefully looking for enemys

You sneak into the room but you see no sign of anything happening here for a real long time. The ventilation is of course offline you cannot hear any noise from the tubes or around you either.

(I will get some dinner and be back shortly about 20 minutes)

>>11652857
back now, new map provided

>>11653266
i look for something useful in the room,
when i find nothing i walk back to the elevator and use it

>>11653556
Please link to this post and roll D20 for scavenging the room, you want high.

>>11653587

rolled 18 = 18

>>11653658
goddamnit i did it wrong, another try

to roll you type dice+1d20 into the E-mail field

>>11653673
Very good success!

After searching the room you found another data canister, a pair of Sonic Pulser grenades and the console panel that belongs to the ventilation system control machinery.

>>11653685
i forgot the "dice" the first time, but second time it worked
>>11653673

>>11653712
i pickup the equipment and ask 0882 for activating the panel

>>11653784
that was supposed to be
>i pick the equipment up

You stash your finding and show 08 the panel, he says that with this and some repairs your team might be able to reactivate the ventilation system. The problem is that this a spare panel for the somewhere else, here the system seems intact and the panel is at their place. Once both panels are fixed on their place the system should be functional unless the long years of being offline damaged it too much. But from the looks of things it should be doable.

>>11653825
i ask 08 to repair any damages in this room, if there are any, and then use the elevator

After examining the room, your squad found no noticeable damage besides dust and a little corrosion. 08 said that there is nothing he can find to repair so you take the elevator down to the lower level again.

Arriving down you are greeted by pretty much the same scenery as the other side, only emergency lights are on some thin foliage is covering the floor, you see found two exits but at both place the door is missing either open or forced open.

>>11654021
i sneak to the southern door and look through it

You sneak towards the southern room, 68 stays close while 08 and 32 hugs the wall. Looking around the southern room you see that this is the lower part of the ventilation and the control machinery is straight on your left side in the corner.

You see a closed door on the opposite end of the room.

>>11654221
i slowly approach the closed door and check if it can be opened from this side

Clear the room then check the door if unlocked peak inside if not go through the door opening routine.

You sneak through the room and try on the door, it does not open it looks undamaged so you think it was locked by the faulty Synomium device AI as well because of the emergency shutdown as most doors that you had to drill through before.

>>11654319
i ask 08 to repair the ventilation system using the spare panel we found

08 agrees immediately and starts to repair the panel. You can try to help him if you wish, if you help you give a +2 to the roll.

Please link to this thread and roll D20 for repairing the ventilation machinery.

rolled 10 = 10

>>11654415
im trying to help 08

rolled 13 = 13

Help 08 with the repairs.

rolled 8 = 8

>>11654453
fuck yeah, im not alone in this thread(beside dm)!

Ah more players! Good to see more, sadly always the first roll counts.

10+2=12

The connection of the two panels seem really old and corroded so you need some time to clean them out properly and make some adjustments to fit the two together.

32 and 68 are on guard but report nothing.

2nd round!
Please link to this thread and roll D20 for repairing the ventilation.

rolled 17 = 17

ok rollin again

>>11654529
Oh yeah

>>11654529
well done

Great success!

After the minor adjustments you successfully repaired the ventilation panel. 08 is really pleased and tells you that the last thing you have to do is that someone needs to go back up because the two panels must be activated together.

Oh yeah!
I remember LQ. I used to participate in few. Was great fun

Well lets head up but bring either 32 or 68 with us just in case.

rolled 9 = 9

>>11654607
ok rollin do decide because I can't make up my mind on who we should bring 10 or below = 32 above 10 = 68

>>11654586
i go upstairs, and ask 32 to come with me

rolled 10 = 10

Hold the phone we haven't healed 32 yet have we?

68 is your bro so you take him 08 remains at the panel with 32 at the door.

You arrive up and 08 gives you instructions via your comm, after a little tinkering with the switches and settings you both activate the ventilation.

Suddenly the tubes around you start to emit a dim rumbling noise and shake a bit as the pressure suddenly moves inside them the noise stops rumbling and gets a bit sharper, you notice the dust and sand is suddenly sucked away from the floor and into small filtering holes in the room’s corners. You can also feel fresh water coming inside and filling the room giving you a refreshing feeling.

08 reports the same things and tells you that you successfully turned on the ventilation and he thinksthe lights should come on anytime now. You wait a bit but the lights do not turn on, 08 says that something else must be damaged or something does not allow you to override the lockdown and send power to the lights.

>>11654712
his injury was not that bad he is okay

>>11654752
we go back to 08 and 32,
and look through the western door

>>11654798
Its so we would have to go through the door opening routine but I agree.

>>11654838
*its locked

>>11654846
the western door in the elevator room is open
>>11654021

Another step complete you go back to the elevator, when you pass 68 then from below 32 suddenly calls movement from the other side of the elevator room. You are still on the upper level.

>>11654864
Whoops I was thinking of the wrong western door but what you suggest is a good idea none the less so I say we go with it.

>>11654878
we ask 08 to seek cover in the ventilation room and to try to identify the movement

rolled 15 = 15

>>11654878
If movement is not identified then we go down with our gun our claws and the lance in a claw not being used for the gun.

also rolling for Identification

>>11654936
>>11654971
08 agrees and stays in the ventilation room. As for identifying the movement 32 says he saw it just for a moment and then it kind of hopped or dashed away from sight he also said he heard some noise which can only be described as some kind of a sudden slurping noises when it hopped away.

>>11655010
we use the elevator to get down to 08,
while driving the elevator we get ready to fight

rolled 9 = 9

>>11655010
Upon reading your description my face went a little pale.

and that calls for an adjustment to my plan forget the lance arm a nade throw it through the western door once we head down and get to the opposite wall and prepare to shoot anything that comes through.

>>11655105
>>11655119
You make sure that both you and 68 come down together on the elevator. When oyu come down you see the thing that you was afraid to see. A Tentaculat is currently floating lightly in the doorway when you arrive down, it notices you two as well.


To allow more players to contribute let’s have one roll per post first post will be for yourself second will be 68.

Please link to this post and roll D20 for initiative for yourself and 68 you want high.

rolled 5 = 5

>>11655238

>>11655265
waiting for a roll for 68

rolled 1 = 1

rollin

rolled 7 = 7

>>11655357
oh dear void.

>captcha agrees: difficulties. 21

>>11655265
>>11655357
oh shit guys!

A Tentaculat is capable of great sudden bursts of speed underwater as soon as it sees you arrive it lunges at you two as you try to back, it aims to catch 68 first (because he rolled lower). As you fall back. He goes straight at 68.

Please link to this post and roll D20 for 68 to dodge the incoming attack.
While the Tentaculat is occupied with 68 you yourself can take action now.

rolled 10 = 10

Bring the burning fury of the lance and claw upon the nightmare.

>>11655560
68 just barely manages to avoid the paralyzing touch of the Tentaculat’s tentacles

You decide to bring down the burning fury of the lance and claw upon the nightmare. You know that touching it with your “bear” claws is risky so taking your Thermic lance you thrust at the creature.

Please link to this post and roll D20 for bringing down the burning fury of the lance upon the nightmare, you want high!

rolled 3 = 3

>>11655643
May the dice gods look favorably upon me to protect my comrade and to bring death to this abomination.

rolled 7 = 7

>>11655678
I probably should not have done that litany.

>>11655678
Despite having no eyes or any visible senses the monster noticed your attack and darted away from you.

Now because of your daring rescue attempt 68 has the chance to act!

32 comes to help you but the Tentaculat darts away from his line of fire when he escaped you.

rolled 10 = 10

>>11655773
68 needs to start shooting that monster!

Also have 32 get into a fireing position as well as us and open fire on it.

68 opens fire from his rifle but the monster is too fast once again and easily dodges the shot, however the Tentaculat also does not manage to counter 68’s attack and close in.

32 moves into firing position but the target is still behind 68.
You can also take action now.

rolled 5 = 5

>>11655946
I meant as in move for a better shot but oh well hve 68 get out of 32's line of fire while shooting

I start shooting that thrice cursed creature as well.

You shoot but you miss too, this horror seems to be just too much to handle from up close.

68 leaps backwards and intentionally falls on his back to open up for 32

Please link to this post and roll D20 for 32 to shoot, he gets +1 for the roll because he is in a good position to aim.

rolled 4 = 4

>>11656079
I don't have high hopes for this as my rolls have been mediocre at best but here goes

>>11656150
I will say one thing my crappy rolls have tuned this one Tentaculat into a hell bent fight for survival.

Despite 32’s best efforts the opponent seems to be impossible to hit, it darts on 68 who is on the ground. He doesn’t t have time to shoot anymore he must try to dodge.

Please link to this post and roll D20 for 68 to dodge the attack.

A 2nd player may rollto shoot again now but it will be in efect after 68’s dodge is resolved.

>>11656215
that is what makes the whole thing exiting.

rolled 6 = 6

>>11656239
Indeed well here we go.

rolled 5 = 5

Can we please get someone else in here to roll besides me preferably before I get everyone killed?

rolled 10 = 10

>>11656262
Rollan to hit.

>>11656262
68 is on the ground and the floating monster’s incredible speed give no time for him to move out of the way, the tentacles of the monster wrap around 68’s arm and for a few seconds you can hear grunting noises from 68’s comm as his body shakes a for a moment but goes completely limp afterwards.

>>11656294
You shoot but this horror is on high alert and lets go of 68 and darts away from your shot. 68 just lies there now completely paralyzed although not yet zombiefied as the Tentaculat did not have a chance to bite on 68.

32 can fire once again as the monster take a moment to consider who to take down next

08 hears the gunfight and decided to join the fight as well.

rolled 10 = 10

Its like a train wreck and I just can't stop.

I am glad that you are back and hope you have been in good health.

>>11656470
Well after Lord Quest and Tau Quest I think everyone is used to have mass bad rolls and shit fucking blows up. Imagine what would happen if I had 2 or 3 of these nightmares coming at you.

Sadly 32 missed his mark again, the Tentaculat considers him a higher threat and lunges at him, however. It made a mistake when choosing 32 as the next victim it now came into a crossfire between you and 08 who just arrived.

Now 08 and you both have a chance to shoot it down.

Please link to this post and roll D20 for shooting it down you want high.

A 2nd player can roll D20 shoot for 08, you want high.

rolled 9 = 9

>>11656565
It will hopefully get better

rolled 15 = 15

Someone else gets to roll for 08

>>11656635
lol fucking finally!

You shoot on the moving Tentaculat but it dodges again it seems impossible to kill this floating horror your squad’s morale is dropping sharply. It is just about to grab 32 but then…

Suddenly its brain ‘assplodes’ when a sonic blast from 08 pierces through it sending it straight to the wall while leaving a trail of disgusting yellow liquid after itself like a cracked egg, it hits the wall with a splashing sound and falls down.

08 emerges from the ventilation room victorious. He is truly the toughest and sharpest Lobsterman veteran you have met.

>>11656764
OH HELL YEAH!

First off deal with 68's paralysis and let them calm down a bit. Then I say we should clear that room it came out of.

You quickly go 68 and use your medi-kit to diagnose the situation. Plugging your interface into the machine it springs to life. You hold it to 68’s body and scan it. Your squad are all collectively relieved that it shows no lethal or permanent damage but still 68 is in a bad condition. The paralyzing touch of the Tentaculat rendered the majority of his body paralyzed save for his most basic life functions. Sadly 68 does not have any artificial organs which could possiblly take over some of the load right now.

You plug the medi-kit to 68’s neck transfusion access and administer stimulants.

Roll a D20 for improving 68's condition.

>>11657044
oh boy

rolled 19 = 19

oops forgot to roll

>>11657136
... Where in voids name were you during the fight all those bad rolls and now that we're not in combat I roll a 19...

>>11657136
08 and 32 stands guard after a little time your medi-kit signals that 68’s life functions are getting stronger. Soon he can communicate with you a bit through the common interface but he still paralyzed completely, he only says some words that he is okay and that he still cannot feel anything.

You can attempt improve his condition 2 more times, roll again to attempt but just one roll per attempt.

>>11657202
rollin again

rolled 20 = 20

>>11657218
...

rolled 19 = 19

and for the third

>>11657136
>>11657227
>>11657243
Remind me to never roll for combat but always roll for medical...

>>11657243
>>11657227
facepalm.jpg

>>11657227
Critical success!
You inject another dose of stimulants but now into his waist transfusion access. 68 reacts surprisingly well on them and he can feel the life returning to his limbs. Soon he manages to sit up and move his arms and legs he says he still feels too weak to fight but much better.

>>11657243

Lastly you inject the last dose of permitted stimulants, the medi-kit warns you that any more than this much could nerve damage. You wait and anticipate success and in a little more time 68 can stand and even lift his guns. He says that he feels confident that he can continue the mission with the squad.

I apologize but I m afraid we will have to wrap up the session here, I honestly intended to have more things happen this session but I clearly underestimated the Tentaculat, this is a horrible horrible creature next time I’ll think twice before I throw another one at you.

Thanks for everyone who contributed today’s session ends here.

FEEDBACK TIME! Did you enjoy tonight’s session of Lobsterman Quest? What are your comments?

my comment is this

OMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM!!!!

I liked all of it.

>>11657369
As the one who rolled so horribly for most of the combat and perfectly for the medical I thoroughly enjoyed this session.
I know that Tentaculat should not have taken that long but I cannot complain as it became far more exciting for me as I was fearing I may cause the entire teams death with every roll. this made my elation even greater when I finally rolled well enough to defeat it.

Thank you for the archival whoever it was! Please do not forget to cast your vote for it on suptg to prevent it from culling for the future.

With that I shall return to the bottom of the oceans for slumber! Good night see you next time!
