Count me in ECW!

I never followed JQ but I wish you luck!

Hopefully you'll get more people to participate.

Also, maybe you should make a notification in that Quest Meta thread. It is quiet likely some people will notice it there.

Make sure to make it visible (like posting a Jurassic Park logo as a picture with your post)

>>16296325

I already posted a notification in that thread, but without a picture. Not sure if I should just make another post with one.

>>16296348
Oh, alright

I didn't notice it.


Anyway, you should start the thread and see where it goes. Don't be shy to bump it a few times.

>>16296377

That's what I'm doing with this. I figure I'll run a couple of threads over the next few days and see how many people I can find that are interested.

>>16296195
I read this on suptg a couple of months ago. Was always slightly ticked off when it ended on a cliffhanger.

>>16296391

Yeah, I tried over a week to get interested parties but could never get enough, so it died.

But it seems people are still interested, so I'm finding out how many.

>>16296402
Well count me in man!

Well, that's 2 people so far.

>>16296555
I think we can all learn from an old movie adage: If you post it, they will come. ie, start the quest now, and more people will join in as it goes.

ohboy my boner can't be contained to see this quest again. Sadly as a eurofag I must sleep, but good luck and I hope that with this bump people will see this thread.

you'll have to actually start the quest if you want this go somewhere.

Fuck why not?

I forget, didn't we end up leaving the rocket launcher somewhere else?

So...umm

We're well-armed, but what does the first aid kit contain? Bandages? We can't keep bandaging wounds with shirts.

>>16296923

Yeah, it's in the boat, I think. It's been a long time.

>>16296948

Bandages, needle/thread, surgical tape, adrenaline, AB ointment, alcohol pads...

Am I interested?

Does a Tyrannosaurus break out of its pen?

So as I recall, we were leading around some newbies and teaching them the ropes. At first they didn't take us seriously about how dangerous shit was, but now they've wised up, yeah?

>>16297004

I'll need to reread the archived threads to have a good sense, but yes. That sounds correct.

>>16297004
IIRC that Brooklyn guy's still a moron, but so was Juan when we first met him.

>>16297034
So far people have proven to learn fast... or die.

But yeah, Brooklyn kept on being a bitch.

>>16297054

Hey, it worked before

Alright, recap.

You guys are in a storage building in the Raptor pens attempting to get a computer working.

You, Marshall, and Aidan are all in the building with raptors attempting to break in.

>>16297149

Yeah, I posted a small recap just now, I'm reading up on the previous thread to get everything back in my head. Apologies, need to dust off the cobwebs.

"*static* Alright, I think this is the right key to use. Are you in front of the computer?"

Heaven or hell lets do this

>>16297187
Assuming we are there...

"Yeah, we're ready."

>>16297187
"yes I am...
Now what?"

He rattles off a string of numbers and letters and you put them in.

THIS KEY IS INVALID, PLEASE USE CORRECT KEY.

You hear Aidan curse and hear a roar as he stabs at something in front of the skylight.

>>16297304
"Says the key is invalid!" turn to Aidan, "You're doing great!"

Not the right one! Come on dispatch we need that code!

I fuck every raptor I can find.

"*static* Oh right, we upgraded the software, just let me look in the book for the key." You hear a heavy thud.

Marshall is screaming. You look over and a raptor has managed to grab him with a claw and is trying to yank his arm to its mouth.

Shit shit shit! Tranque the raptor to let him get free.

Keep half an eye on Aidan's fight, ready to charge in the raptors look like they're going to break through, Aidan gets grabbed, or worse.

>>16297492
Derp too slow, are we holding a weapon?

Shoot the raptor that got Marshall, does not matter what, water we have in hand or can get furst

You take aim with your tranq pistol at the raptor.

Give me a Weapons check. d100.

>>16297610
First ever quest thread, how do I roll?

>>16297684

"dice+XdY" in email field

rolled 35 = 35

Rollan, let's see how this goes

rolled 84 = 84

rollan

>>16297724
FUCK!!!!!!!!!!

>>16297726

You fire the gun and a dart sprouts from the raptor's chest. It releases Marshall and scratches the dart off with it's claw before running out of sight.

"*static* Alright, I'm getting close. Just hold on a second and I'll have the key."

>>16297806
"Roger"

Scan the perimiter. Any sign of her raptor buddies lurking just out of range?

>>16297806
Is Marshall injured? If so, toss someone the medical kit so they can treat him, if not, wait for the code.

I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing and I'm profoundly lazy. Can op (or anyone really) give a quick plot summery and explain how this works?

>>16297806
"Today would be great dispatch, hey Marshall you okay!"

Marshall is sitting on the floor hyperventilating, but otherwise unharmed. Chainmail's good stuff.

"*static* Alright, I got it. THIS should be the one." He rattles off another set of numbers and letters.

>>16297897
We are a MAINTENANCE WORKER at JURASSIC PARK. Out job is to go where DISPATCH sends us and FIX SHIT. So far, we have FIXED a METRIC TON of SHIT.WE are currently TRAINING several men after most of MAINTENANCE took a BOAT off the ISLAND, fleeing due to BAD PAY and HORRIBLE WORK CONDITIONS. IIRC, we are actually HEAD of MAINTENANCE. ECW will occasionally ask for ROLLS, when we do things that have RISK.

>>16296195
I WAITED MOTHERFUCKER!!! WHERE WERE YOU ALL THIS TIME???

>>16297933
God please let this be it Marshall, back on your feet and cover that window

>>16297983

Sorry dude, I thought people had lost interest in the quest.

>>16297933
Alright, let's put that key in!

Marshall shakily gets to his feet and grabs his rifle. His face looks like ivory.

You put the key in...and it works!

A progress bar appears and starts filling up.

>>16298012
Ya know what, I got JPQ back, I'll be fine.
>>16298017
Seconded.

Why are we in the shed again? Its been a long time.

>>16298066

Activating security systems for the raptor paddock.

>>16298103
Ahh, a challenge worthy of our skills. Enter the code.

>>16298103
Sounds like a good thing to do, yeah. Are we needed at the computer right now while it loads, or can we help Marshall out defending against the raptors?

The bar fills up relatively quickly, coinciding in a lull with the attacks.

The installation completes and the program opens up.

>>16298103
Why on earth do they have the maintainence shed for the raptor paddock security in the raptor enclosure?

Its Imperial Star Destroyers all over again...

>>16298164
Alright, let's take a look at the program. What does it say we can do with it? Is more setup necessary?

>>16298168
The same reason that the Rebel shield generator was outside the shield on Hoth: Dramatic tension.

>>16298184

The program has options for slaving the local security systems to it, as well as receiving commands from outside sources, if it has connection to a network.

Currently, nothing is slaved to the program.

The program has options for slaving the local security systems to it, as well as receiving commands from outside sources, if it has connection to a network.

Currently, nothing is slaved to the program.

>>16298217
Okay, let's get the local security systems connected to it. See what we can do here.

>>16298263
Yeah, if the User Interface is simple enough that we can do it without badgering Dispatch, do it.

>>16298228
Let's try to get it connected to the network so that Dispatch can control it. He's got the manuals, we should make him do this.

>>16298263

You set the program to search for systems. It finds the electric fences, the security cameras, and the security systems for the control room.

>>16298324
Electric fences? Call the team, tell them to get away from fences, in fact, call everyone we can and give them the message, then turn those fences the fuck ON!

>>16298409
Turn those machines back on!

>>16298324
Tell Marshall and Aidan to get away from the fencing, and turn the security for this control room back on. Then tell Dispatch we're bringing the fences and cameras back online, and if he can confirm.

You alert the workers over the radio about the fences, though it takes a little while to translate into Spanish.

You turn the fences on, and the nodes come back hot. Velociraptor fences are all on.

"Hey Boss, how's it coming? The raptors are getting eager about this skylight and the baton is running out of juice."

>>16298486
"We got it!" Toss him out tranque gun if we can so he can use that.

>>16298486
We done here? If so

"Just finishing up now, believe me I can't wait to get out of here too."

...we did *have* an evac plan, right?

>>16298532
Wait, we were supposed to hook the system up to the network or not?

You turn on control room security and the mesh in the skylight spits out sparks. A shriek rends the air and the smell of burnt meat reaches you. Lights on the door and the closet flash on.

The computer is now displaying security camera views across the raptor paddock. The one near you spots 4 raptors attempting to get in through the roof. Another two raptors are lying incapacitated nearby.

>>16298564
It never rains, does it? Get to shooting those Raptors. Give Marshall the magnum while we use the trangue gun.

You can see three of the raptors retreat from the roof, the fourth is sitting on the mesh, twitching.

If you're quick you might nail some of them before they hit the foliage. Roll Firearms.

rolled 7 = 7

>>16298644
Come on good dice!

rolled 22 = 22

>>16298564
Mmm...fried raptor.

>>16298663
well...nuts

You fail to hit any of them and they retreat into the brush.

Adrien comes on over the radio "*static* Hey, are you alive out*static* Good work Porter, the systems are running and we've got control down here. You're done there."

>>16298740
Get Marshal and head out to hook up with the others.

ECW! You're back!

You didn't run Jurassic Quest at the best time before. People were just getting off work. But I'm glad you're back.

Picture related. Its how awesome this is.

>input
Put gem in mouth
Am I doin' it right?

>>16298784

Yeah, I had limited time after high school. Now I'm in college, so I have more time.

Marines! We are leaving!

Seriously though, round everyone up and make for the transport, watching each others backs as you go.

You open the door and the three of you cautiously walk out. You aren't immediately slaughtered and eaten. The moon is at its apex and fills the clearing with light.

>>16298844
Ah shit. Where are we headed again?

>>16298911

You have the yacht docked at a dock on the other end of the path to the building.

>>16298926
Get there, double time, and keep eyes out for raptors.

>>16298815

College? Good for you bro.

>>16298926
Is there brush between here and the yacht?

>>16298974

Yes, there's a small path through the jungle that's flanked by dense brush.

>>16298951
Thanks, I'm shooting for a Ph.D in Entomology

So you're heading back to the yacht, I presume.

Roll a Survival check.

(M, Ai)

rolled 3, 66 = 69

>>16299079

Shit,

rolled 57, 76 = 133

>>16299079
Survival checks!

rolled 42 = 42

Here goes

rolled 38, 73 = 111

As you return to the yacht, the jungle goes quiet and you strain to hear anything. There, the rustle of leaves on either side of you. Aidan looks at you while Marshall keeps walking forward. Aiming at every shadow on the trail.

rolled 92 = 92

>>16299265
"Aidan, watch the left, Marshall watch our rear."

You watch the right.

And keep moving.

>>16299338
Second. Stay alert for ambushes. We've seen how fond the raptors are of those.

rolled 57, 33 = 90

They follow your orders and you continue. The sounds seem to be everywhere, at times right next to you, at others barely audible.

Make another check.

rolled 29, 56 = 85

>>16299397
Another check. 2 dice, right?

rolled 3, 29 = 32

>>16299466

No, just the one. I'm rolling for the two NPCs.

rolled 22 = 22

Things are starting to look....dicey

rolled 39 = 39

>>16299480
Oh, oops.

You notice a pair of reptilian eyes in front of you, then they're replaced by a raptor leaping at you from the brush. You manage to jump out of the way, as does Aidan.

Marshall is tackled by a raptor, his arm is in it's mouth, but the mail prevents it from biting.

rolled 94 = 94

>>16299565
Yell out to Aidan "There's gonna be another one, watch out!"
Then shoot that raptor on Marshall with the tranq rifle.

rolled 45 = 45

>>16299480
Okay.

rolled 71 = 71

Shoot that mother humper!

You hit in the neck, and you can see its eyes dilate in the light of your floodhat. It slumps over and drools on Marshall's face.

Aidan is currently in a wrestling match with the 2nd raptor, his pistol shoved in its mouth; and the 3rd has disappeared.

>>16299646
Well, that's a decent place for the pistol to be. Now he just needs to pull the trigger. Let's jkeep an eye out for that third Raptor.

rolled 83 = 83

>>16299646
Charge over to Aidan's aid, and shoot that raptor, too. Look for the third raptor, it must be waiting for an opening.

You keep watch until you hear the struggling subside. Aidan gets to his feet.

"Goddammit, someone get this lizard off of me!"

rolled 1 = 1

>>16299646
You know what must be done

>>16299755
Alright, help Marshall while Aidan keeps watch in case the third raptor feels lucky.

"First thing I'm going to do when we get back to the bunker: every Maintenance guy gets chainmail, and fuck the budget."

You and Aidan grab the comatose raptor and toss it off the trail. After helping Marshall to his feet, you continue.

You don't see the last raptor at all as you finish the hike. You clear the foliage and reach the dock, where the boat sits at anchor. The deck seems clear, and you can make out Adrien in the pilot's cabin.

rolled 33 = 33

>>16299755
Nod to Aiden "keep watch" while you pull that lizard off of Marshall.

Damn posting lag.

This posting lag is really annoying.

>>16299915
Say to Aidan "still want one of those things as a pet?" as you climb aboard.

>>16299915
Shout out to Adrian. " We're coming aboard. Start the engine up, we're getting out of here."

>>16299987
>>16299968
Second these two.
Want to make sure that Adrien is actually alive and not dead and propped up as bait by the last raptor.

>>16299903
The chainmail has been really useful at stopping our guys getting mauled badly, hasn't it.

Aidan doesn't say anything, he just goes belowdeck. Adrien revs up the motor and pulls away from the dock. You check your watch, it's 1 AM.

>>16300011
I wonder if we put in a bulk order with Muldoon's people, if we could get a bulk discount?

Anyway, yeah, I know Dispatch told us when we got our promotion, that we gotta keep ourselves within budget, but I think chainmail for everyone is the way to go. And maybe surplus US Army goggles, so poison doesn't get in your eyes from the dilo's.

>>16300044
Alright, let's have Marshall go down, make sure weapons stay ready. We'll stay in the pilot's cabin with Adrien.

Call up Dispatch: "Hey Dispatch, this is Porter. If there isn't anything that needs immediate attention, I'm having this team punch out for the night. I've got one seriously wounded, and we're all fucking tired."

>>16300044
Time to check on our injured teammate. We left him below decks, right? Let Marshall know he's on guard duty up top, and to shoot any raptors that fancy their chances in the water.

>>16300075
>>16300083

So who's going where?

>>16300130
Well, we seem to be in better mental condition than Marshall, so we should probably stay on guard duty. I mean, Marshall's been chewed on twice today; I think he could use a break.

>>16300206
Agreed, send him to check on Jacob and then stand down.

You stand with Adrien on deck, and then they day hits you. Damn, you're tired.

Marshall comes over the radio to tell you that Jason seems fine, and is sleeping. Aidan is back to drinking.

You radio in to Dispatch.

"*static* Alright, good work Porter. We'll have this park back in shape in no time now. Get your men up ASAP, we're gonna need them."

>>16300290
Well I'm gonna have to blow Dispatch off, as it's 4:13am where I am. Thanks for this ECW, and good night!

>>16300290
Radio off. "You have GOT to be shitting me."
Radio on. "Alright Dispatch, but I'm bringing my team in first. I got wounded that needs to be taken to the infirmary."

>>16300318

No problem, night.

Also, I'm wrapping it up here. I'm tired. Let's see, tomorrow I'm free from 4PM EST onward. We could run it then. That sounds good to everyone?

>>16300341

Shit, that's EDT, not EST. 4 PM EDT.

>>16300341
I'll likely miss a good chunk of that, since I'll be in mid-commute.
I'll be on the lookout for the thread as soon as I'm home, though.

Could someone archive this? I'd do it but I need to get to bed.

Glad I could bring this back, thanks everyone.
