Nazo reacted the only way she knew how when folks started to give her hugs and kisses! She wildly lashed out with her divine blade!

Round 2

The male Lyn-Srial started to cast again. More of his wounds healed, and then fear gripped Vik, Ryder, and Barinthasheer.
Vik, Ryder, Barinthasheer
Make a Fear roll at -2. If you fail, roll on the Fear Table with a +2
The quickflex juicer slashed four times at Nazo again. He struck her, but it glanced off her armor.

Juicer 1 peered around the cover of the standing stone to fire his heavy laser rifle at Nazo. It struck her solidly.
Nazo
That is Shaken and 3 Wounds to soak.
Juicer 2 turned his heavy laser rifle on Ashley, hitting her dead center.
Ashley
Shaken and 1 Wound to Soak.
Juicer 3 took aim at Vik on the hood of the Cassowary and fired, striking him.
Vik
That is Shaken, no Wounds.
Juicer 4 shook the sleeping Lyn-Srial female again to try and wake her, then took aim and fired at Barinthasheer. The laser splattered harmlessly against his scales.

Juicer 5 shot at the dragon, as well, just as uselessly.

Juicer 6 shot at Nazo.
Nazo
That is a Shaken, no Wounds.
Juicer 7 fired at Bari, to no effect.

Murder Wraith 1 swung his vibro-longsword at Nazo, but she was too fast for him to connect.

Murder Wraith 2 swung his vibro-blade at Barinthasheer. The blade just skittered off the scales.

Skeleton 1 fired his laser rifle at Bari harmlessly.

Skeleton 2 fired at Vik, but the shot pinged harmlessly off his armor.

Skeleton 3 fired his laser at Barinthasheer, to no effect.

Zombie 1 turned his glitching laser rifle on Barinthasheer also, again fruitlessly.

Zombie 2 fired at Nazo, missing her completely.

Zombie 3 shot at Barinthasheer, doing no damage.

Zombie 4 also shot at Bari, but the dragon didn’t even feel it.

The female Lyn-Srial blinked awake as she was shaken. She clacked her beak angrily and climbed to her feet, already moving her four hands and casting spells.

Shadows coalesced around the two Lyn-Srials, masking them, swirling and making them harder to hit.
Everyone
The Lyn-Srials have Greater Deflection -6
Thomas, Ashley, and Zephrim found their eyes growing heavy as magic settled over them.
Thomas, Ashley, Zephrim
You all need to make a Spirit -2 or fall asleep

Nazo spat out blood! Laser burns and mega damage sword slices had cut or burned her armor. She wiped her face muttering, “These are no chicken winged pandas...”. Nazo struck out wildly with her celestial blade trying to hit the murder wraith behind her and the juicer in front. Haha, I need something to drink!

S1 rolls Athletics TN 14, fail gets 2 or 3 Wounds; J6 = 4W & 2W; J7 = Shaken; T = 2W, 5W, 2W
Actions:
1: Drive to position indicated on Map. This is technically a Ramming Attempt on S1. Per SWADE Sidebar Note on Page 120, this uses the Ram Maneuver rules on Page 115: I roll Driving, he rolls Athletics to oppose. If it wins, it evades (probably just stepping to the side). Otherwise, we collide. It does 2d6 SDC damage to the Cassowary (ie, nothing, since you need to be MDC to hurt an MDC target), and the Cassowary does 3d6 for Size, +2d6 for relative Toughness (40 vs. 13). If Ryder wins with a Raise, then he scores another +1d6. Pretty sure anything under 12" of movement don't actually increase damage. I'll include the damage with the roll below.
2: Fire Helios Cannon 4 times, twice at J6 and twice at J7, as I now have LoS on them. Combat Ace counters the MAP for this.
3: Fire Helios Cannon 3 times at T. The STS on the Cassowary counters the MAP for this. Of course, he's still at -6 due to Greater Deflection.

Driving.jpg

Seeing the Murder Wraiths shrug off the Helios Cannon, Ryder opts to leave those two to the more mystically inclined. Seeing the Lyn-Srial male start to heal himself, he scowls. "Right. Need to be sure you STAY down." The Cassowary cuts a hard right, driving forward pretty much through the skeleton off to the western edge of the circle; as the vehicle skids to a stop, Ryder opens fire--the first salvo split between the two Juicers to his north, the second attempting to strike the Male Lyn-Srial despite his cloaking.

Although one shot goes wide against one of the Juicers, all six of the other blasts strike home with radiant bursts of laser-focused sunlight.

Re: 3.1 Northern Exposure

Post by Ashley Logan »

The laser beam may ignore Ashley's resistance to temperatures, but it can't ignore the raw psionic power of the tekekinetic field she surrounds herself in. The beam, barely visible shining through the dust of the battlefield, actually curves away from her as if encountering an unthinkably strong, yet completely localized, gravitational field around her. It grazes along the ground and splits a tree behind her in two!

The magic sleep descends upon her, but she manages to fight through it, and as the effect fades away, she erupts in flames and in sudden fear and fury sends a pair of immense spheres of flame that rocket through the air and drench the battlefield in an inferno!

Rolls: 15 ISP spent, 1 benny
From previous round (Catching up): Psionics - Greater Protection [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:0[/dice:3pgmim7w] or [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:1[/dice:3pgmim7w] 3 ISP after Channeling

Not shaken, as her toughness is now 23 (16) (MD) from Greater Protection with a raise

And now: Spirit -2: [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:2[/dice:3pgmim7w] or [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:3[/dice:3pgmim7w]
Benny [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:4[/dice:3pgmim7w] or [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:5[/dice:3pgmim7w]

And NOW

Firebolt 1 (targeting Z1, S1, J6 and J7): [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:6[/dice:3pgmim7w] or [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:7[/dice:3pgmim7w] - LBT 6 ISP
[dice:3pgmim7w]61481:10[/dice:3pgmim7w]

Firebolt 2 (targeting T, J5, Z4): [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:8[/dice:3pgmim7w] or [dice:3pgmim7w]61481:9[/dice:3pgmim7w] - LBT 6 ISP
[dice:3pgmim7w]61481:11[/dice:3pgmim7w]

"Oy, you manky rotters," Vik says as the murder-wraiths shrug off the bursts of molten death he sent their way. Momentarily busy dodging shots and spells directed his own way, Vik scrambles around on the hood of the Cassowary to try to find a bit of cover. Slamming a shot from his hype-me-up hypo he grins as his pupils dilate and everything seems to sloooooooooow dooooooooooown, then he blasts the murder-wraiths again in bullet-time.

"Bitty barstards what needs ta take a dirt nap, permanent-like."

Round 2 END
Nazo’s Wounds
With the Gritty Damage setting rule, it looks like Nazo needs to make 2 rolls on the Injury Table since she took 2 instances of Wounds last round.
Bones scattered over the windshield of the Cassowary and Vik as Ryder rammed one of the skeletons with the vehicle. Then the Helios cannon opened up, blasting two of the juicers, killing one with a hole through him, the other just barely avoiding the same fate as she pressed against the standing stone. Then the cannon opened up on the male Lyn-Srial, putting him on the ground hard.

Ashley’s first blast only singed the zombie and the juicer, and the smell of cooked meat floated over the forest clearing. Her second did much better, incinerating another zombie and leaving another juicer shaken behind his cover of standing stones.

Vik’s molten death incinerated the two murder wraiths and the nearest juicer.

Thomas slumped into dreamland.

Barinthasheer flew over to the Cassowary and tried to remove the cannon, but Ryder managed to evade the dragon’s claws.

END OF ROUND 2. PLAYERS WON INITIATIVE, BUT THE QUICK-FLEX JUICER GOT A JOKER, SO HE IS GOING BEFORE YOU.

The quick-flex Juicer moved rapidly, his chain sword slashing four more times again at Nazo, striking her once, slicing through her armor.

That is 1 Wound.

She is out of benny’s and took her 4th wound...
I think I’ll just blaze her out...
Broken Guts... Broken Spleen, Broken Arm... Ugghh... I wish I was getting hit by lolipops...

Nazo dropped to one knee. She coughed and the red ichor of her life’s blood seeped out between her lips aplatterimg the ground. “Damn you chicken wing lover... We just wanted to ge the kids so we could enslave them at our fort... We would have even taken you...” Her voice was fading... Her MOM implants were being rejected... Time had run out for the self proclaimed demon queller... She turned her head up looking at the Juicer. She smiled lopsidedly, “You want to see something sexy, you want to see the true power of the 101st?”

She flipped out her soul forge blade driving it down into the juicers foot pinning him, if the gods deemed it, for just long enough for him to meet Thomas... She let her consciousness flow out of her body as her strength finally failed her. For the briefest of moments her wandering mind held itself above Thomas’ sleeping form. She kissed his lips softly imparting what was left of her into him hopefully jolting the son of odin awake. Remember... Then there was nothing.

On seconded thought... Nazo’s eyes flittered open in her dead body and she flung her dagger upward through the jaw of the juicer... She mubled before really dying, “Sorry... He just would not wake up.”

Notes: Hopefully it is cool to pin the juicer to the ground by his foot and wake Thomas. GM advised Thomas would be asleep so killed Juicer.

On seeing Nazo struck badly, Ashley howled in anger and a pulse of force emanated from her, pressing the grasses away in a circle, then singeing and igniting the slim stalks in an expanding ring around her. From her left hand exploded a white-hot streak of plasma that shrieked through the air, leaving a thick, greasy contrail behind it, and slammed into the juicer that she'd just engulfed in flames moments before.

Meanwhile, the entire boulder that two other juicers were lurking behind exploded into a pillar of star-hot flames, leaving their hiding place little more than magma and showering them with superheated shrapnel!

Vik's position on the hood of the Cassowary shakes as Bari batters at the big solar cannon, causing the techno-wizard to spill a mouthful of liquor from the flask he'd been sipping between shots from his magma blaster.

"Oy, Bari boy! Manners and niceties of friendlies in combat, mind. For all his long neck and strange proportions, ol' Ryder's an ally of more'n opportunity, like, so get your brain-box out your arse and stop actin' like a daft footie hooligan."

After a swig and squint, Vik realizes there's something more to the dragon's strange behavior, and starts rooting around in his tool belt for appropriate bits.

"Bumble-shite. Ruddy culty-types ain't content-ish to raise up rotting deaders, but gots to start poking awkward thoughts and strange urges into innocent noggins like ol' Caring Bari. Travesty, it is."

Slapping a plasmatic aether-hexonograph into barrel of the device he's cobbled together, Vik points it at Bari's head.

"Might feel a bit like a kick in the head, my draconic droog, but beats the flaming enema what yon Ash is like to unleash if you keep up the misbehavior," he says, and pulls the trigger.

Round 3.1

The juicer fighting Nazo watched her fall. As he turned to find a new target, the fallen crazy had a little more fight left in her, throwing her dagger through the quick-flex’s jaw and into his brain. He gurgled and fell backward, dead.

In a rage, Ashley blasted fire, taking out three of the juicers.

Recognizing Bari’s plight, Vik popped the dragon with a dispel, and Barinthasheer felt the dark malevolence controlling him fade away.

Bari is now free of the puppet.

Ryder, realizing what was going on with Bari (and grateful for Vic's unusually high level of coherence, along with the Cassowary's sensors being able to pick up the Techno-Wizard's rambling), slams the Mountaineer into reverse, whipsawing around one pillar and past another, leaving the Helios Cannon pointing at the other Lyn-Srial cultist. Over the PA, he simply says, "Your mother is probably quite disappointed in you."

Then his finger hits the "Fire" button, holding down to let loose over half a dozen blasts at the Necromancer. The first several are turned aside by her dark magics, but by the time the second volley is fired, the Cassowary's targeting system has compensated sufficiently to strike her three times, twice quite solidly.

With Viks dispel blast hitting home Bari stops trying to chew thru the Cassoways armor and shakes his enormous head. Seeing the minor scoring in the armor of the vehicle he's pretty ashamed of himself. "I am so sorry Mr. Ryder! I... his voice trails off as he sees their fallen comrade. First tears well up but then they start to practically glow with rage and he forcefully launches himself at one of the remaining juicers, the strength of his push-off rocking the massive truck back and forth for a few seconds before Ryder peels towards the remaining Lyn-Srial.

Round 3.3

Ryder cranked the Cassowary into reverse and blasted the female lyn-srial. She staggered, definitely seriously hurt, but she managed to stay upright.

Barinthasheer roared his anger when he was freed from the mind control, and leaped on a juicer, rending him apart.

The male lyn-srial continued to lie there unconscious.

The female lyn-srial gathered herself up. She moved her arms, casting, but winced, and lost one spell, but the second went off. Vik and Ryder felt an overwhelming sense of dread as the female necromancer flew behind cover near the male.
Vik and Ryder
Make a Fear Roll. If you fail, roll on the Fear Table.
The juicer near the Cassowary lifted his rifle and fired at Vik. The shot splattered off of Vik’s armor as the juicer ducked for cover again.

The skeleton near Barinthasheer fired uselessly at the large dragon.

The other skeleton fired at Vik., but missed.

A zombie trundled into the center of the stone circle to shoot at Vik. The laser splattered harmlessly on his armor.

Another zombie fired at Ashley, but missed.

Another zombie shot at Vik. Again, his armor protected him.

Behind the standing stone, the male lyn-srial groaned and pulled himself up. He turned hate-filled eyes on the heroes and started to cast, but then instead picked up a juicer rifle and fired at Vik twice, but couldn’t pierce his armor.

The female lyn-srial hissed and gathered her magical focus. But she gave a frustrated snap of her beak and flew to another of the standing stones to grab up a pair of juicer rifles and fire at Ashley twice.
Ashley
That looks like 1 Wound for Ashley to soak. This is one of those Heavy Lasers that ignores her laster resistance.
The juicer dashed around to fire off a shot at Vik, as well, but still can’t penetrate the armor.

The skeleton near Barinthasheer fired at the dragon again, again fruitlessly.

The other skeleton fired at Vik, but missed.

One of the zombies followed up with another shot at Vik, but his armor was too strong.

Another zombie fired at Ashley, but couldn’t penetrate her armor.

The final zombie shot it Vik, but the shot went wide.

Sitting on the far side of the standing stones, bound and stripped of weapons, sat a quick-flex enhanced with techno-wizardry cybernetics, sitting with a bunch of people who looked like the refugees the Trailblazers had met earlier in the day.

(Note: Greater Deflection gives them an additional 6 armor vs. the blast, but that only raises them to 12 Armor total, completely negated by the AP of the grenade. Next grenade is a Frag, then a High Explosive, then a Plasma, then two more full sets before the launcher is empty.)


Ryder sighs in frustration. "These warped turkeys need to understand when it's time to lay down and die, already!" Slamming the Cassowary in reverse, he once again cuts around the standing stone the two Lyn-Srial are using for cover, narrowly missing the zombie that had wandered into the center of the ring. Slamming on the brakes, he leans out the window of the Mountaineer with the Solar Wyrm Rifle, launching a grenade right between the two cultists; the shrapnel ignores their shadowy shielding and bites into both their flesh, viciously.

Reaching out with his long neck Barinthasheer snatches up the skeleton near him with his toothy maw. Leaping back into the air he flys at the last remaining juicer, chomping on and grinding the skeleton into smithereens before decending and spitting them at the killers feet. Then he takes a swipe at the drug enhanced mercenary.

I have been trying to get the heroes of fort hope attention for the better part of two week. Pictographs, diagrams, coded paintings... Nothing works. Now I am hog tied with the rest of these refugees... Hello! A little help here!”
Q’omo’s eyes wiggled in a slow unassuming manner trying to get @Barinthasheer attention. No dice... Guess I’ll have to get out of this the hard way, then jump that skeleton, and pick up my priceless blade.
As Q’omo unleashed his psychic powers something happened and he just merly fell from being up right sitting too face down in the dirt. Ugghh... What the hells! Who sprayed me with lemon juice? Face first on the ground he momentarily forgot about escaping and instead flared at the refugees wondering incorrectly which one was hiding the deadly citrus.

My road to here has not been long or well travelled. It was actually quite a simple set of circumstances that had led me to be captured along with a few refugees by the meanest set of juicers I have ever met. They went by the name of Quantum Five, speed was their game, and they said short of a dragon they were unstoppable. Fortunately in my circumstance their just happened to be a dragon whom ignore’d my eye wiggles but nevertheless was raining death down upon those that deserved it. Now it was just me and a Zombie practicing the exquisite art of knot tying. Not too many folks still practiced it and even fewer ever taught it. I aimed to help him along in his efforts.

Tied up like this, with barely half an inch to move. The uninitiated would be trapped and helpless, but I a warrior of the secret sect of coiled mongoose knew how to unleash fury from a hairs breath away. Muscles flexed, and my magically enhanced vibro knuckles cut through the bonds with little fan fair. Standing, I motioned to the Zombie with my other hand wrapping my bindings around my fist for more of an impact. My eyes said it all, “Come and get some”

Out of his bonds, standing, he does have first strike...

Ryder decides he's had enough of the Lyn-Srial cultist, and just continues to shoot grenades at him. The first is a fragmentation grenade; the second is a high explosive model. Both land right next to the cultist, sending even more shrapnel into his avian flesh.

Having been distracted a bit by the forwarding and reversing of the old Casio-whatsitt, Vik pulls himself together and scans the field.

"Hmm, just one poor soul what's gone and lost his meatsack, and a couple of others what's crawled out the freezer and gone bad. Put me off dinner, s'like," he says, raising his trusty magma rifle and tapping its reservoir to reload.

"Have a word at the Pearly Gates for old Vik, if you mind, 'count of giving you lot of rotters a reprieve from the spot of delayed discorporation in which you find yourselves."

He then proceeds to spray the remaining undead with barrages of hot lead, putting them to final rest.

Vik rains hell down on the remaining undead ending the threat of the mystery cultists. Bari looks over the odd newcomer but decides if the bad folks had him tied up he must be ok, so he turns and flies with haste to their fallen comrade. Changing into human form as he lands next to her the boy is taken aback some by the extent of her wounds but reaches out to heal her.

"It is ok Ms. Nazo,I will heal you up good and you will be trying to love Mr. Thomas again before dinner." Reaching out he lays a hand on her brow and channels psionic power into healing her but nothing happens. The power just dissipates. I.. did I do it wrong? So he tries again, and again the heal power has no effect on his deceased friend. "Mr. Vik help me! I think the bad people are making my power not work, I can not heal Ms. Nazo! Make a magic machine to stop them!"

As Vic drops the last of the undead minions, Ryder at last puts the Cassowary in park. Shouldering the Solar Wyrm and pulling out his laser cutter, he goes over to Frik and Frak and cuts any remaining chains on them before waking the two youths up, gently. "Don't worry, kids, you're safe, now. Let's get you in the truck; after we clean up here, we can talk you through some of this on the way back to town, okay? Take it easy, now, though--like I said, the bad stuff's over." Hearing Bari, he looks over and shudders a bit at the mess that's been made of Nazo. For you, at least.

He calls out to the refugees, noting that one of them managed to get himself loose. Shouting to @Q'omo, he says, "Hey, get those other guys free, and all of you into the truck, okay? We'll get you all back to safety.'

He feels a bit guilty leaving Vic to deal with Bari, but there's other work that needs doing, for now, and those two have a bond, weird as it is. First he drags the surviving cultists over to one spot, next to the dead Juicers, and records all of their images on his CEP, tossing their hoods back to get a clear shot. He also sets about rounding up the weapons to load into the truck. Seeing that Thomas is still KO'ed, Nazo's dead, Bari's focused on Nazo, and Vic (hopefully) is focused on Bari, he turns to @Ashley Logan . "I think you and I need to focus on making the hard calls right now, with leadership out of action--and not to throw you into the deep end, but you got seniority with this outfit. We got a pair of badly wounded cultists, here. Do we just finish 'em off, or do we try to take 'em back for questioning?"

Re: 3.1 Northern Exposure

Post by Q’omo »

I’ve always been alone, lost in my own silence. For years now it followed me, a haunting memory of a time before the war. My sect, the coiled mongoose had taken me in, for years I knew only one person. The master, and he was the first to bind me to my silence. Since that day my magical pieces of cyberware, exposed or embedded bore the mark of the quiet soldier. The time spent in the cloister withnthe master was only half as lonely as the time spent wandering looking for monsters to slay.

So it was to my discomfort that the gangly Trimadore put me in charge of the refugees and loading them up into their vehicle. But first... The zombie that had tied me, dead and newly dead as it was, needed to get its.


Spikes extended out of the hand of Q’omo. He had a dirty look to him, as if he had been in the wilderness and captive for sometime. His face was half hidden beneath his scuffed gladiator armor and what little was visible had a fine layer of grime to it. A thin streak of blood striped his left arm his wound having stopped bleeding sometime ago, but without a manner to clean himself was still visible. He knelt near the downed Zombie and pushed his spiked gauntlets slowly through its brain pain with a slimy crunch for no reason except to just make sure. Briefly he glanced and nodded at @Vik and then moved swiftly with light step towards a rustling cloak made of grey and brown armored cloth and silvered sword lying on the ground with a handle that bespoke fury.

These were my most prized possessions. The cloak could hide me from almost anything and it had a preternatural ability to wrap my enemies for my close work. The sword, was from my first kill. Victor Desmond, the mad mage of shadetown. Where he had gotten it from was not completely unknown to me... He had told me its sordid tale while, like moments ago I had been bound. In brief, from the treasure vaults of Tolkeen after the CS had won the war.

The longer explanation might be best thought over an ale, for now, the battle seemed over and these refugees were looking to me for guidance I could not give. So simply, I did what I could to ease them into the next phase of their sad life.


The momo headhunter cut the refugees bonds with a simple stroke of his silvered sword and waved them over to the vehicle. As he walked himself there he came to look down at the woman @Barinthasheer was trying to heal. She seemed to have lost the will to come back despite the dragons best efforts. Cut down by a juicer... She deserved better. No words of sympathy were uttered, he merely put an appropriate finger to his lips and laid his hand flat hoping the young dragon might leave it alone and find a better way to morn her death. Done he continued on his short journey to the vehicle scooping up a young child helping him in. He handed @Ryder a 2x4 painted peice of paper painted on both sides. One side was a coiled mongoose, and the other was a single word: Q’omo

Ryder blinked as @@Q'omo handed him the strange business card. He also noted the serious gear the guy was sporting. He nodded to the man. "Hey, do me a favor--take the seat right behind the driver's seat in the truck. I think we might wanna have a chat with you on the way back to our base." Then he went back to talking to @Ashley Logan about the fate of the Cultists--whether to execute them here, or take them back for possible questioning.

Vik blows away the steam wafting from the end of his gun, then climbs down off the Casio-whatsit's hood. Everything seems more or less in hand -- ol' Tom taking a nap while the rest of the lot see to a new batch of Legion laborers -- until he spies Barry crouched over a red spot on the ground.

Oh noes. Not Naz ... he thinks, shouldering his weapon and removing his helmet.

The slow walk to the desperate dragon doesn't change the facts -- the damage is done.

Barmy bird, she was, but's a shame to see her spread around like that. Even that shadow what she had playin' peak-a-bite in her satchel's been thrashed and fashed, flattened out like a coyote on the telly.

He lays a hand on Bari's scaled shoulder, not really knowing how to comfort the lad when he's not looking like a lad, but rather all big-spiky-lizard-confronting-the-cruel-winds-of-fate-shaped, and fit to start crying flaming tears or something.

"There lad, no need to risk burning out your brain-box. Ol' Naz done give us the slip. Reckon she's gone right on past the Pearly Gates, she has, maybe stuck St. Peter wif' a sword or tried to mount him like a pole-dancer, like as not."

Gingerly, Vik lifts the wok-shaped hat from Nazo's face, revealing a peaceful smile.

"Leastways she went out dreaming happy dreams," he says. "Reckon she was 'magining herself climbing rainbow mountains of blood riding a lazy, sorcerous git wif raven locks and a flagpole for a ... well, like as not she enjoyed the ride, which is to say."

Pulling Bari gently away, he points out a quiet spot under a nearby tree.

"What say we get to digging a bit, Barry Boy? Make Ol' Naz a nice little barrow to mark a warrior's grave. I'll conjure up some stuffed bears and bunnies we can plant among the stones, and maybe snap a pic or two of Tom's nethers while he's all aslumber, to leave with her for the sake of old times and peculiar perversions."

With the Trailblazers distracted by Nazo’s death, they weren’t paying attention to the revived female lyn-srial. She focused, trying to cast again, but failed, and so settled on trying to drag the male away into the forest.

Ryder, seeing the female Lyn-Srial attempting to escape, grumps. "Well, that may settle this issue." Leveling the Solar Wyrm, he fires the grenade launcher twice in her direction. The first grenade is a plasma, and it sets both Lyn-Srial alight as well as cooking flesh down to the bone; the second grenade, a much less flashy AP explosive, basically serves to gild the lily.

Seeing Thomas indisposed, and Ash seeming distracted as well, Vik figures he ought to say something properly supervisor-ly to acknowledge Ryder's proactive approach to prisoners.

"Right crispy there, them what was obviously making a run for like reinforcements and whatnot," he says, nodding at the smoking remains of the cult leaders. "Good on ya for, like, seizin' th'initiative, like. The Tomorrow Legion thanks you for your service, I'm sure, though like as not mayhaps we don't execu ... er, try not to allow any more run-offs what we has to shoot, as may be, in favor of more voluntary prisoner-ships, or cooperative asylum-seeking if you like."

I was half way into the sweet comfy confines of the afore mentioned and prescribed seat that my gangly friend had sweetly indicated when Mrs. Chicken Wing and her lover made an escape attempt. Seeing how he just rescued me and all I sighed just once wrapping my cloak around me and pulling out my rifle. The rifle was a smooth bore weapon of stormy design. My blade was already at my side ready to be drawn. I disappear and give chase, not because I particularly cared but if we were going to take them down I would back them up... Loyalty has its faults I suppose.

Everything seems more or less in hand -- ol' Tom taking a nap while the rest of the lot see to a new batch of Legion laborers -- until he spies Barry crouched over a red spot on the ground.

Oh noes. Not Naz ... he thinks, shouldering his weapon and removing his helmet.

The slow walk to the desperate dragon doesn't change the facts -- the damage is done.

Barmy bird, she was, but's a shame to see her spread around like that. Even that shadow what she had playin' peak-a-bite in her satchel's been thrashed and fashed, flattened out like a coyote on the telly.

He lays a hand on Bari's scaled shoulder, not really knowing how to comfort the lad when he's not looking like a lad, but rather all big-spiky-lizard-confronting-the-cruel-winds-of-fate-shaped, and fit to start crying flaming tears or something.

"There lad, no need to risk burning out your brain-box. Ol' Naz done give us the slip. Reckon she's gone right on past the Pearly Gates, she has, maybe stuck St. Peter wif' a sword or tried to mount him like a pole-dancer, like as not."

Gingerly, Vik lifts the wok-shaped hat from Nazo's face, revealing a peaceful smile.

"Leastways she went out dreaming happy dreams," he says. "Reckon she was 'magining herself climbing rainbow mountains of blood riding a lazy, sorcerous git wif raven locks and a flagpole for a ... well, like as not she enjoyed the ride, which is to say."

Pulling Bari gently away, he points out a quiet spot under a nearby tree.

"What say we get to digging a bit, Barry Boy? Make Ol' Naz a nice little barrow to mark a warrior's grave. I'll conjure up some stuffed bears and bunnies we can plant among the stones, and maybe snap a pic or two of Tom's nethers while he's all aslumber, to leave with her for the sake of old times and peculiar perversions."
He looks up from Nazo a bit confused at first to what his mentor is telling him, then he gets it. clentching a massive fist into the stoney ground he turns his head towards the Lyn-Srial necromancers. Despite the strong urge to stomp them into paste he turns back to Vik. "I will dig a place for her." he says with sadness.

When the sign falls Bari instinctively fortifies his senses mystically. Seeing the vague outline of the weird machine/person Bari notes the machine parts are magic in nature and that said person is now rushing over to help Ryder. Unsure what the strange animal on one side is or the word on the other he ponders what the beings intent was a moment before returning to the grim task of burial.

It doesn't take long for him to scoop out a decent sized hollow at the base of the tree. He considers smashing the standing stones for her cairn but decides that may have bad effects, so gathers other stones instead.

"I have rocks and a hole dug Mr. Vik. I do not know what else is approriate."

Ryder sighed and pumped two more grenades into the lyn-srials. Talk about overkill!

When Barinthasheer activated his magical sight, he could see something powerful glowing on the two downed necromancers. Each had a powerful magical ring on their finger.

Q’omo appeared over the bodies of the Lyns. He looked at them intently, silently offering a prayer for their passage into the world beyond. It was strange to see them on the wrong end of a grenade. It was true they had captured me, and the female in particular had roughed me up something good. But there was something peaceful about the cloud weavers as they met their end.

Looking up from the cairn Bari answers "They do have magic rings. Sorry, I forget you can not just see that." Shrinking down to human form he approaches Q'omo holding out his sign. "I am sorry Mr. Machine Man, I do not know what this word means. I have not known the American for very long."

Ryder nods to Vic. "Understood."

As Bari mentions the rings, the Trimadore nods. "Right." He goes over and starts removing the rings, and any other still-intact gear from the fallen, placing it all in the Cassowary. He does not loot their fallen comrades, though--apparently that's a bridge too far for him. "Someone else grab Thomas' feet, and we'll load him gently into the Cassowary. I've set up some padding for him to sleep easy on--when we get him back, the magic types can examine him more fully, see why he ain't waking up."

Looking around, he considers the scene. "I got some dynamite. Properly set charges could take out the last of these monoliths, and that altar-thing. Dunno if they actually do anything, or if they're just for show, though."

Stripping the bodies and loading Thomas were quickly done, and the refugees were loaded up into the Cassowary with what remained of the team. The trip back to the village was uneventful, though well after dark. The quick flexes were exceedingly grateful for the return of Frick and Frack, and the other refugees from earlier were happy to see their compatriots.

Your job here in Altona was done, so nothing was stopping you from returning to Fort Hope and reporting in.

Shaking his head clear, Thomas wakes confused. How did I get in here? What happened, I remember there was cultist, and... Thomas sits up and keys his mic. "Status report, I am missing some time."

Looking around he sees the results of the battle and Nazo lying there. Running over to her, he looks for help, she is obviously beyond recovery. But for some reason Thomas is struggling to understand why, he wants her to get better. "How, how did she die?" He asks looking to the others to fill in the missing time. She was so stupidly brave, just like Chuck, always going out there when she should be more defensive.

Thomas knew they would not leave Nazo here, to be burned with these cultist. She would be taken back, and given proper rights, a good burning and set to water.

"Well, see, one of them juiced-up todgers got a bit choppy-choppy wif his sword, while Naz was busy choppin' this other chap, an ... well, bit of zigging and no zag and a bad turn of the screws, I s'pose," Vik says, glossing over the gory details.

At first Vik's a mite annoyed when Tom starts dragging pieces of Nazo out of the nice hole what Barry had dug, but the look on the wizard's face gives him pause.

"I reckon the ol' lech is having hisself a bogs-honest leak about the eyes," Vik mutters, half expecting Tommy to melt into a puddle like a green-skinned witch.

"Eh, there there now, Tom. Not the best way to go, but look's like what she's found a bit of peace, like, and ain't much more what any of us is likely to get when the scales gets weighed, if you follow. Wrap her up tight so the, you know ... bits ... don't get loose, and we can give her whatever kind of send-off you like, back at the village. Grab a nip, too, and tell tales. How's that sound?"

Ryder breathes a sigh of relief as @Thomas wakes up--he wasn't sure he could win in a fight with Ashley over which one of them was going to be stuck as leader. "Take your time to come to grips with her loss, sir. We'll give you the rest of the information once we get back to base."



************************** Much later, after Nazo has been given a Thomas-approved send-off **************

"Sir, there's three main bits you should know. One, we got all of them. I've got images of the cultists before we burned the corpses--figured it'd be useful if anyone wants to do an investigation to see if any of their associates were involved but not present. Two, we picked up a couple'a rings, the kid says they're magic--you should probably check 'em out and see if they're useful or need to be destroyed in a volcano, or somethin'. Third, one fo the folks we picked up is, I think, a potential recruit. Should probably interview him. He introduces himself with a card, so I dunno if he's actually able to speak, or in what language."

With that, the Trimadore nods. "I'll get a tally of the stuff we scrounged from the cult for salvage, unless someone wants some of it."

We could probably do with a more complete list of the non-ring loot, if it's not too much trouble. I'm assuming that, at the very least, the two Lyn-Srial's armor was probably slagged by multiple grenade blasts, but most of the other kills were comparatively clean hits, I think.

The chickens were dead, apparently they had nothing on them. The time to go was now. From what I gather these heroes were supposed to head back to their fort. I could use a roof, and my blade was hungry to do good.
Q’omo flicked a 2x3 calling card 10 feet toward @Thomas. On one side it had a black painting of a mongoose coiled and ready to strike. On the other side it had the word: Q’omo painstakingly written as if done by brush stroke. The technowizard built cyborg siliently got into the vehicle behind the driver as previously indicated by @Ryder.

Thomas looked at the card, and then the cyborg who tossed it down. The card read @Q'omo. The whole idea of the TW cyborgs always made Thomas a little uncomfortable. Their over eager commitment to justice was as bad as Chuck's used to be. But apparently he was helpful here. Saying some words over @Nazo's grave Thomas got back on track. "Thank you @Vik, thank you @Ryder I appreciate the work. Everyone can take what they need and the rest csan be used for the fort. Any magic items should be analyzed before being donned. We do not need anyone cursed."

The words spoken Thomas sets to work sorting out and evaluating the items ensuring any curses are fully understood before anyone is in risk of being infected.

Bari is a bit confused when Thomas decides to take Nazo's body back with them, was the hole he dug somehow not sufficient or was there some other ritual that Thomas wanted to perform elsewhere? He didn't even know how his own people treated their dead so the ceremonies of humanoids were even most mysterious to the youth. Looking once more at the makings of a cairn he shrinks down to human form and approaches @Thomas "I am sorry if the hole I dug is not appropriate, I have never done this before. And I am sorry that the bad bird men were able to control me." Tears are in the childs eyes as he talks to the mage. "Maybe if my mind was stronger I could have helped, but I was too late to heal her."

"Twas a fine hole, Barry boy. Ol' Tom just prefers a hole closer to home, you see, so's he visit it with a certain regularity, like," Vik says, taking the boy by the shoulder and maneuvering him somewhere less confusing. Later, Vik returns and --uncharacteristically dutiful -- sees to the transport and preparations of Nazo's remains.

"Ought to go on to the afters with her blades, much as she liked a bit of slicery," he says to himself. "And the armor'll help cover up the meaty bits what's all carved and jointed."

He leaves the fallen warrior her magic hat, as well, but removes the Altaran weaponry and the magic staff she'd claimed on their previous journeys.

"Don't reckon she'll need these, and be a shame for the worms to get ahold -- end up with zombie worms and Sluggy mutations, no doubt, and have howling hippies and 'vironmental authorities crawling up our arses over containment zones and the like."

"...crawling up our arses over containment zones and the like."

In the beginning, were the words. They were distant and tinny and muffled. Ashley opened her eyes and blinked blearily. What the hell had happened?

She could hear the others talking not far away, through a wall or door or something. Memory seeped back in. The fight. Ash's heart suddenly stepped up its pace as she looked around, but...the others didn't seem to be scared or mad, and she wasn't restrained. Still in her armor, just lying on a cot. Had she been injured? There was no pain, but...maybe they'd used magic or something to heal her. The idea sent little crawlies down her skin, but it would be better than dying, or having some kind of super-painful wound. Right?

But no, her suit wasn't damaged either. There was no pain. Ash frowned, trying to remember. She'd heard a voice saying something in an alien tongue, felt a sudden tugging in her mind...then this. A spell. It had to have been. Hadn't they been able to lift it? Maybe not.

At least she was okay now.

A little stiff from the cot, Ashley sat up a little and swung her legs off the side so she could sit properly.

"Hey, guys?" she called. "Everything okay?"

Ryder comes into the room, the Trimadore smiling genuinely at her. "Oh, good! There must've been some serious mojo behind that sleep spell--you were out even longer than Thomas." Then he gets a bit more somber expression. "As for 'okay'... Well, we won. But Nazo... she didn't make it. She died smiling, for whatever that's worth to you. We're making final burial arrangements now, so please, come on out and join us."

Ashley sagged, but nodded. Nazo had been...weird. She'd never understood the blind woman, and had in fact assumed she was a 'crazy' with that headware augmentation that drove people insane. Even so, she'd been an ally. Part of the team. Selfless in her own way.

She got up to her feet and wiggled her toes on the cold, smooth floor. Maybe it'd be better not to show up to a funeral in a black tanktop and shorts.

"Okay. Lemme get dressed and I'll be right out."

It didn't take her more than a few minutes to throw a pair of pants on and shrug into a T-shirt. Then Ash ventured out of her room and padded out to meet the others.
