Research Lab A

[guillotineroom]

You wake to find yourself trapped inside a cramped glass pod, wearing hospital PJs in your team's colour. Great, right? Not rude at all. The lights in the room beyond are harsh, made worse by the stark, pristine white walls. It's enough to make your eyes hurt. The room is oppressive in its sterility, and it reeks of cleaning chemicals. There's a large mirror along the western wall.

Luckily you're not alone. There are a number of other pods around you, each with a person inside.

To the south is a highly futuristic metal door.

If you'd like to escape your pod, roll Power!
4+: Sweet freedom! You bust your way out successfully.
2-3: You do your best, but the pod's just too sturdy for you. You're stuck unless somebody decides to lend a hand.
1: You smash! … You smash with such enthusiasm that the pod tips over, shattering. You're out, but you're also, uh. You're bleeding. And there's glass all over the floor. Lose 3HP. Traversing the room now requires everyone to make an agility roll of 3+ (fails lose 1HP).

[totalmisplay]

[Stoat already knows that it's not gonna have a lot of power, so for now, it will wait for one of these more powerful people to help it out.]

Great... Just the kind of situation I was looking for.

[It has adorable stoat-sized Phoenix pajamas.]

Re: Research Lab A

[moonlit_knight]

The fuck is this.

[swiftly kicks the pod open with a 6!]

Re: Research Lab A

[beeknighted]

[...huh. Tries to jimmy the lid open, but no luck. Knocks on the glass??]

Hello?

rolled a 3 on power

[freearcadia]

[Harlock jolts awake - gasping sharply. Great, sterile hospital smell that'd explain that nightmare he had. The pirate noting the hospital gown - and that someone took his eyepatch along with his weapons.

He presses his hand against the glass, searching for a hinge or anything before he takes a kick - but the pirate's unable to get a good leverage and he didn't try again in risk of breaking the glass]

Anyone else awake?

[fanstheflames]

[ Well. We're doing great.

She's bleeding enthusiastically, having smashed enthusiastically and now she's just confused and bleeding. Mind the glass, guys. ]

... Ouch?

Security

[guillotineroom]

The office is a mess. Clutter is piled on the desks — books, magazines, notepads with illegible scribbles and dumb doodles, half-finished crosswords and sudoku puzzles, potted plants in the process of dying. There's a steaming coffee mug filled with still-hot cold black coffee … and another one, almost empty. And another one, cold, half full.

A lab coat is flung over the back of the only chair.

To the west is a door.

Adaptability: 6

[freearcadia]

[Being mindful of the glass when stepping in, Harlock gave the room a look over]

Looks almost as if someone just left a little bit ago.

[totalmisplay]

[Stoat has rolled a 4 for Adaptability, and is presumably still being carried in.]

Huh... interesting.

[It hops onto the desks, though, so that it can start investigating these books and scribbles.]

Re: Security

[moonlit_knight]

[adaptability 2, also, going to try the door]

Re: Security

[beeknighted]

[adaptability 6!

can i drink the coffee]

[fanstheflames]

[ adaptability 1, because I'm cursed.

Can she look over at a notepad. ]

Hallway

[guillotineroom]

You're in a long, boring hallway. I mean, maybe the view out of the window is kinda cool? It looks like space. Are you in space? Huh.

To the North is the door to Research Lab A
Door to the East, conveniently labelled East Wing
Door to the West, conveniently labelled West Wing
Door to the South

Re: Hallway

[moonlit_knight]

[rolls a 4 on adaptability]

Anybody got a preference on which way we go?

rolled a 6

[freearcadia]

Since we have a means of communicating with each other now, it might be in our best interest to split two groups - I really don't think with the traps we seen that anyone should be going off by themselves.

[fanstheflames]

[ 3 on adaptability! ]

... Maybe we should split up...

Re: Hallway

[beeknighted]

[rolls a 6!

Also, staring out the windows at space. Huh.]

[totalmisplay]

[rolling a 7 on Adaptability!]

Split up to East and West, maybe?

Infirmary

[guillotineroom]

This infirmary is awful. It's gross. Why would anybody want to come here? It's dirty, grimy, and cluttered with wrecked furniture — and, also? It's flooded. There must be nearly 2ft of water in here. Luckily the room is on a slightly lower level than the doorway where you're standing, so you're safe for now. Which, given the live electrical cables sparking all over the place, is probably a relief …

You have a feeling there's probably something useful in here.

If you want to risk it, roll Agility to !! parkour !! or Endurance to take the plunge like a stoic badass.

3 in adaptability

[fanstheflames]

[ And that's a 4 in Agility, Capitan.

Why is this place a mess. ]

2 for adaptability and 7 for Endurance

[freearcadia]

[Because Harlock never resists a challenge, he grits his teeth, ignoring his own monster yelling in dismay, he plunges into the water]

I'm going to search.

Locker Room

[guillotineroom]

It's a simple locker room. Yep. Just a locker room. Four steel lockers line one wall, while a rack on wheels with folded up scrubs and two tupperware containers sitting on top of it lines another.

3

[moonlit_knight]

[What's behind locker number one!]

Comms

[guillotineroom]

You found the walkie talkies? Great! Comment here with a blank top level so you can stay in touch with each other.

Stoat!!

[totalmisplay]

EAST WING

[guillotineroom]

It's another simple hallway.

There are three doors:

Hall of Champions
Arena
Infirmary

Re: EAST WING

[beeknighted]

[Looks at the arena and hall of champions and SUDDENLY COLLAPSES TO THE GROUND GRIPPING HIS HEAD WITH A CHOKED STRANGLED NOISE]

WEST WING

[guillotineroom]

It's another simple hallway.

There are three doors:
Locker Room
Research Lab B
Game Room

[totalmisplay]

[GOT A 1 IN ADAPTABILITY what did it even get these glasses for. anyway]

Hmm. What are we thinking? There might be some juicy stuff left behind in the locker room.
