Okay, here goes nothing.I'll try not to railroad. Sometimes you'll feel like I am, I guess with the character's limits and all, but I will do my damndest to avoid this.Be observant, consider that there are multiple solutions to the problems and stay sharp.Or don't. It's up to you. Have fun!Psychic powers are done using the DH system. 1d10 + 3 in this instance.
CUTSCENE
... Whats the idea to this quest? What is the setting?
>>14730269I believe the idea is to watch the cutscene.
----
Okay, what do?
>>14730269Boone is a WH40K Psyker.
Are we still Boone?Y: Every day is great!N: Boy, that teleporter did a number on us!If Y, Enjoy a great day!if N, embark on quest to become Boone again, so that all days may be great!
>>14730314Look at Door
>>14730314What psychic powers do we have? What can we use reliably?That keypad looks kinda shiny lets go examine it.
I skipped the cutsceen like i always do. Hrm... look around
Investigate surroundings- find exits and attempt to remember your specialties- outside of psycher-ing
bump
>>14730325This door is locked, and far too heavy to budge. It has a an electronic lock. You don't know the pin, yet.>>14730333You have Heal, Telepathy (used to read minds for this game) and Spectoral Hands (move objects with mind)
>>14730428Are there any minds nearby you can read, maybe on the other side of the door? That might have the key code in their memories?
I've always wanted to see one of these
Enter 999 on the pad on the slim chances you hit the 1 in a 1000 mark.
>>14730428Check your vox equipment to see if you can contact your unit.
try 123. you would be surprised how many people use that.
>>14730253I just have to say, OP this thread make me squeal. I love Boone
>>14730428Commune with this Machine Spirit in the hopes that you can get it on your side.
>>14730428CF: Can we use Telepathy to do a mental sweep? See if any minds are active within it's range?If so, ask one for the PIN, assuming it's a friendly.
>>14730447You're not sure about just flinging your mind through the door. You have no idea where you are, except that they speak gothic. I guess.>>14730477The door honks loudly. And does not open.>>14730512The Door honks loudly and does not open. An automated voice says " NEXT FAILURE RESULTS IN LOCK OUT" You feel like you should stop guessing.>>14730505You check your equiptment...
Damn. No vox eqiptment.
>>14730598What's that little technological doohickey next to the chocolate?
>>14730570How about some background knowledge. Who are we? Who are important people in our lives?
>>14730598What's the weird thing next to the chocolate?
Recite the litany of opening nine times in front of the door and hope the machine spirit heeds your call
>>14730598Check room.Would rather not waste shot on a door to get it open.Also, knowing psyker's luck, it will either kill everyone inside or actually be the Hivemind.
>>14730619Boone is Boone. If that isn't enough to know everything about her, LURK THE FUCK MOAR.
>>14730617Chocolate processing unit. An essential piece of everyday equipment.
>>14730619>Doesn't know who Boone is>Laughingsororitas.jpg
>>14730598Can you use Spectral Hands to open the door from the other side?
>>14730617Seems to be a generic spare part. Good for fixing small stuff.>>14730619You are Alice Boone. Sanctioned Psyker and Commissarial Aide to one of the least known Commissars in the Galaxy. You look out for your team mates and love the emperor and your commissar. You believe in doing the right thing. You are a bad psyker, but you try.
>>14730598D'aww.We have a status screen. And Chocolate!Ok then. Any egress options to either side?
>>14730598Fuck it Time to exploreGO LEFT
>>14730619http://mr-culexus.deviantart.com/gallery/12423256Here.
>>14730669Can't move what you can't see.>>14730695ALRIGHT! left. You find a welded shut iron door and a large,window. Seems to be some sort of cell.
why is /tg/ being a fuck up again? Anyone else having difficulty posting anything?
>>14730772>Welded door>Window through which things can be seenOh god please let there not be red eyes back there...
>>14730772Look in Cell
>>14730772Peer through the window all careful-like.
>>14730772Wipe the window a bit and peer inside.
>>14730786>>14730789There's a guy concentrating on something on his desk. You can dully here him tapping his foot.
>>14730652>>14730649>>14730740For the love of Christ, folks, I know who Boone is. I also know what canon is, and how it can differentiate between authors. Now, can I get any RECENT happenings. Are we stuck with a chronic case of amnesia, or can we remember the name of the ship we're on, if we're on a ship?
>>14730857See>>14730268It ain't hard.
>>14730844
>>14730772oh, exploitable
>>14730857>canon>Colossal Fagot !!jcg/Jrhuv6C>the fag who INVENTED BOONE is running the questLURK THE FUCK MOAR
>>14730870LET ME OUT IMMA FAIRY
>>14730868Oh hey. Well then, I look like a colossal dumbass, and rightly so.>>14730870He's probably in the cell for a reason. We should leave him there.
>>14730844Try to get his attention! Guys at desks know everything.
>>14730870Try and get blonde's attention. Mundanely, lets save our HORRIBLE PSYCHIC POWER for when we really need it.
>>14730922You tap on the window and he doesn't stir. It then occurs to you that>>14730921People are usually in cells either for their own, or for other people's protection...you can't be sure.
>>14730988Check the welded door and see if you can determine if it was welded shut from the inside, or the outside.
>>14730988Go left more.
Try to raise someone on my Vox.
>>14730775I am.>>14730988Can we.....READ HIS BRAIN!?Wait.That hair...hmm..Let's move on. He's got furniture and a writing implement. He's also not apparently in any kind of prisoner's garb. So whoever put him in there, assuming he's not just an functionary in this prison, assuming it is one lawl, doesn't consider him a threat.
>>14731039See>>14730598jesus.
>>14730988We should carry on out of the cell blocks.
>>14731032You find a similar set up.>>14731021On closer inspection, the door is not welded, but actually melted to the frame. Looks like it was done from the outside.(Sorry about weird posting speed. 4chan was being slow)
>>14731061Actually, reading his mind does sound like a good idea, or at least, a neutral one.
>>14731092Let us check out who's in this cell, too.
I want to say Genestealers.Lets left some even more, maybe we'd find Lanky.
>>14731098Using ANY psychic powers is like setting off a flare in the Warp inviting Daemons to nom your soul. I don't think we should use our powers unless we have to.
>>14731098>>14731092I have a bad feeling about this.I wonder if we got redirected mid-teleport into a psyker holding facility but missed our cell by quirk of fate.The doors are melted shut. Ergh. Very bad feeling.Peek in this window.
>>14731092Look in THAT Window. Then look down hall to see if there are more rooms like that.
Got old after RubyQuest.
>>14731115There is a woman pacing around aimlessly.
>>14731167Smile and wave.
>>14731167She looks fucken insane. Let's leave her alone.
>>14731153Then Go hug Tom. We're questing here cockmunch>>14731092Third-ing look in this window.
>>14731167Alright.Let's say hello.>>14731137We're Sanctioned, we've got...whatever that does against random Warp attention.Note: Boone's Sanctioning was particularly horrible. It could have been worse, but it still was wretched.
Or if we're Really unlucky, The phenom howl that shatters glass for kilometers.
>>14731167This one at least might respond to a tap on the window... I say do that.
>>14731210Err, with Telepathy. Give her a ping.
>>14731220And listen to her crazed thoughts? That's insane...Let's go for it.
>>14731202You give her the smile that could melt Fuklaws heart and wave frantically. She doesn't seem to notice, but stirs a little when you tap on the glass. You suspect this might be one of those mirrors that people on the other side can see through.
>>14731239So okay it seems like you are not the one imprisoned. Look to the left and right, trying to find something resembling a directory.
rolled 7 + 3 = 10>>14731229>>14731220OKAY!Time to read this chick's mind!!!
>>14731239Move along, then.
Boone is so moe.
>>14731274
Crap.
>>14731274Boo-urns.
>>14731274Geeze, our Willpower Characteristic sucks.
>>14731274Well, that's too bad. Assuming nothing breaks let's keep going down the hall. (4chan is moving so slow for me.)
>>14731274Aw shit.
Oh. I thought we were trying to roll under 11.Bahahaha...?lol. Ok then. Moving on...
>>14731326>>14731318>>14731279>>14731263You move left to the next OH GOD EMPEROR!!
>>14731354Well shit.Let's go back the other way for now, perhaps?
>>14731369Equip Laspistol and follow the escapee!
>>14731369Carefully Nooooooooooooooope your way right past that room without entering or staring too hard at what's inside.What's on the opposite side of the hallway from the (welded) door? Like, if someone were to glue a laser tripwire to that door, where would the laser's dot end up pointing?I'm thinking there might be something useful hidden on the same wall as the Player's viewpoint.
>>14731369Look in the room to see if anyone is inside, then... pull out my gun and follow the blood trail...
>>14731369You don't perchance have AIM, do you?
GO GO GO
>>14731379>>14731402You head left, despite your usual instincts, compact laspistol ready to dish out some hurt. Oh hey.>>14731391Nothing on the opposite wall.
>>14731369Yeah.Bad.Hmm.Go back a few screens to the beginning, and continue right.We've not business hunting _anything_ that doesn't belong in a sandwich. We could hunt up a pickle for Connie, for example. I bet she's a pickle person.But whatever did that?Not a pickle.
>>14731369Well that didn't go well at all. Look for any survivors inside.
>>14731468Gasp! Help that poor stranger. Heal powers plox.
>>14731468Oh boy.Uh...Check the body for ID n stuff?(prepared to close eyes against horrible death wounds)
>>14731274My Perils, Check em!
>>14731468Poke the body with our pistol. Or something that lets us see it without touching it.
>>14731468See who it is.
>>14731468Inspect the body! There may be clues! Or treasure!
>>14731468Can we flip it over with Spectral hands without having to roll for Perils of the Warp? If so flip that shit over from a safe distance.And also, I love your goddamn comics, all of them.
>>14731475You run back past the cells and head in the opposite direction. The results are mixed. You're starting to suspect that this place may just be plain old not safe.
>>14731475Could also be the person in the room escaped, cut themselves badly and then expired here. >>14731468Look for some way of opening the big door marked "Exit"
>>14731546Open the door, maybe there's Vox Equipment.
>>14731546Matinence closets hold all the secrets. Investigate!
>>14731563this
>>14731468Loot bodies!(Note: I'm not familiar with Boone's law or whether that would be in-character for her to loot bodies. Ignore this suggestion if it is not)
>>14731546Correct that horrendous spelling.
>>14731625After checking out the maintenance closet, check the dead guy next to the Exit door, at least flip him over and see what killed him or how he died. Maybe he's someone we should know.
>>14731603>>14731612There is a locker with a simple combination lock, a garbage incinerator and a ladder leading up to the vent.
>on a ship with people in cells who have been welded inBlack Ship?
>>14731665Check if the incinerator is warm, maybe it's been used. Try shooting the lock off the locker.
>>14731665Check the locker, see what we can do about that padlock.
>>14731665Pretty sure spectoral hands could disengage the combination lock, or a single shot from the laspistol if we're not in the mood to check it.Actually, I don't like the locker much at the moment, either look into the slits there or something to make sure we aren't going to find another body in there or something before we try opening it.
>>14731673seems powwwwwwwwwwwwwwerful unlikely.Fagot would have to have gone SSJ Fluffshitter to make this a black ship.
Use Spectoral Hands to break the lock or shoot if off if that doesn't work. Loot the locker.
>>14731546Oh, wow. Nice HL1 Reference.>>14731665PISTOL WHIP THE LOCK. FOR KANE!
rolled 7 = 7>>14731665Spectoral hands to disengage the combination lock
>>14731702I'm going to suggest we save psyker powers for emergencies. At least then the inevitable horrific failure might hurt whatever's threatening us as well.
>>14731728whoops forgot my image
>>14731696The incinerator hasn't be used in some time.>>14731673You will never forget the black shis, and above that, are familiar with the low gravity and back ground hum of being on a vessel. You're quite sure this is a planet based facility.>>14731697>>14731696You glance into the locker and see only darkness, observing the lock, you agree it's pretty damned flimsy. You don't know the combination, but you do know LASER SHOTS!!
Check if there had been anything disposed in the trash chute/compactor/vaporizer bin anytime near. Of course, laspistol at the ready.
>>14731785Wait for lock to cool enough to remove it safely. Remove lock, open locker, asses contents, have inappropriate thoughts about Raege, wish cuddles was here, go back outside and see if blood trail goes anywhere new.
HEEEEY! It's a data slate!
>>14731785Oh, so no bodies were recently dumped inside? Or just that it hadn't been turned on recently?Just open it. And wait for the Lictor to rip her face off?Wait, did I just sarcasm-ed myself?>>14731468Looking back, did Boone check if that Exit was locked?
>>14731815Attempt to access the dataslate and find any information that can determing where on throne we are.
>>14731815See if we can access slate, and what's stored on it.
>>14731815Oh Sweet God Emperor! The dataslate, It Glows and floats!It's tainted by choas, burn it with lasers!
>>14731815Is it readable in its current state? If so, read it.Open the TRASH and see if there's anything inside it. If there's one thing RPGs taught me, it's that there's always valuable stuff to be found in garbage cans.Do not go up the ladder. There is likely to be DANGER there.Any chance on investigating the dead person we found earlier?
>>14731815Take a look at the contents, check for heresy.
>>14731815put it into the trash!
>>14731815Let's see what's on the slate.
>>14731841Let's see here...
>>14731884Let's see B, A, C.
>>14731884Press A.
>>14731884ASTRO MAIL ASTRO MAIL
rolled 10 = 10>>14731884>>14731910Yep, B A C.
>>14731924What was I rolling for, again?I guess we just ... healed the shit out of that Astromail.
>>14731910CUTSCENE OF SLATEB.
CUTSCENE OF SLATE A
CUTSCENE OF SLATEC
>>14731942Low Gothic is such a beautiful language.
>>14731942Check the pic for the code!>>14731958Huh... he doesn't seem like he'd be able to redecorate with that much blood. That's worrying.
>>14731942Well that's strangely convenient.Search the room for the pict.
Were these scenes pre-made or are you just that goddamn fast?
>>14731958So let's see...There's a serial pervert in cell AAnd an unresponsive woman in cell B... If we bring the latter to the former, does that mean we'll recruit an ally?When we go back to check the corpse, see if he/she has any identification, and if so, what his/her name is.
>>14731985Head for cell block A I guess.
>>14731999Boone's a woman, she can't go into the pervert cell without something to distract the pervert.That's like entering the "Kennel of angry dogs" without having meat to act as a decoy.
>>14732024>Las PistolCan guarantee it will blow off a normal mans head with a well placed shot
>>14732036Is Boone willing to fire her weapon in such circumstances? There has to be a better option than killing him.
>>14732024Also: Psyker.Does it seem like we're in a mental hospital more than a prison?
>>14731992(I tried to predict a lot of likelihoods, for every screen you see, there are a half dozen that you don't. That's how I GM. I can't think on the fly.)>>14731991No pict. Darn.>>14731995No ID on this one, but they stir a little and moan painfully as you pat them down.
rolled 8 + 3 = 11>>14732067Heal
>>14732067Let's try healing them.
Pat him down a little more while thinking of Raege. Then Heal him.
>>14732067Cast Heal.
>studying for Bio test>check /tg/>find this quest>mfwWell, looks like I'm not getting any sleep tonight.
rolled 7 + 3 = 10>>14732084 Sorry, I do the rolling. You attempt to heal this figure.
>>14732109Well, we probably won't reduce the poor bastard to a sack of mucilage. Which is good.
>>14732109Dude, you always roll 10.
>>14732109Yay!
The man groggily stands up, and smiles ingratiatingly. He looks a little shakey, but he's shrugged off the worst of it.
>>14732147(why in the hell? what's the point of the dice then?!)
>>14732210"Seb Deelogg? I'm Boone.... uh... do you... er... know what happened here? Oh and if I get too upset I can probably make your head explode. Just fair warning."
>>14732210Ask his name.Ask wtf's going on with the blood and the him woundedAsk where the survivors areBe ready to un-heal him by way of lasgun in the event of Heresy
>>14732228>>14732210No, don't give him a name to agree to. Just ask him who he is.
Yeah, there's no need to give this guy a name to go along with>>14732147>twice = alwayshurr
>Mr. Culexus>drawquestAh, 2008. How I've missed you.>>14732210"One more comment like that, and you'll need more than a healing power to put you back together. Now tell me what's going on here."
>>14732228>>14732240Seb introduces himself and explains that he is the warden, gesturing to his dark coat as proof. He explains that an in mate at this holding block escaped and the two of them fought and injured eachother.
Oh sweet, the site stopped lagging like shit, hopefully this will go quicker now..
>>14732210Kick him.Kick him where his balls are.
>>14732295>Me and another inmateWell his story checks out and he sounds like a completely trustworthy person.
>>14732295>Seb>WardenNO, SEB IS AN INMATE YOU LYING SACK OF SHIT.Deliver repeated ballkicks until he tells the truth.
>>14732324Actually, DON'T tell him where he lied.In fact, shut up about giving this liar any information whatsoever.Just kick him in the balls until he confesses.
>>14732295"Please don't lie to me. I'm just going to ask nicely once. And then... er... something... Cuddles usually does this bit. The teeth help so much."(How are we for psy-points?)
>>14732295Yore dead Free- I mean Deelogg!Seconding motion to commence ballkicking
>>14732295Psh, coat? I don't believe him. He doesn't even have a fancy hat.
>>14732109This image is so fucking cute. It's been a long time since we've seen you here Mr Culexus, glad you're back.
NO ONE, BUT NO ONE calls you "pudding tits" then lies to your face!! HAAAAAAAAAIIIII!!!!
>>14732303>>14732324>>14732332>>14732345CONSENSUS ACHIEVED!
>>14732380Raege would be so proud!Now let's get the truth out of this scumbag!
>>14732380"Try again"Cuddles would be so proud.
Seb slumps to the floor making a high pitched, but quiet, wheeze like a thin person on a whoopie cushion.
>>14732380dear lord I felt that from here!!
>>14732380Now would be a pretty good time to restrain him (if possible). Otherwise, kick him until he passes out, shove him in the locker, close it, block it, and point the lasgun at his face.Don't ask ANY specific questions of him - just ask him to "Tell me what you know". Chances are, in his fear, he'll tell us the answers to questions we didn't even think to ask. That, and piss himself. But clean lockers are always the first casualty of war.
>>14732422>Biscuit-head is an insult.All my d'aaaaaaws
Something tells me we should go check on the lady that was pacing...
>>14732435We could always stuff him in the incinerator, and question him when he's in there. Probably a little out of character for Boone though.
>>14732435break these actions down a little. Think like a flow chart.
>>14732415I'm sad that introducing Cuddles into this story would be the equivalent of introducing a Space Marine or Assassin ally into a Dark Heresy campaign - it would be an overkill handicap.
>>14732443Still pacing.
>>14732422Restrain the body and loot it! He clearly stole the warden's coat and the warden's coat ALWAYS has passcodes or the keys. Nobody escapes from that much blood loss from a beating so clearly he has a weapon. Goddamnit, he must have SOMETHING useful.
>>14732509Strip him, bind him, kick him in the balls.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jr_01rYKQLg
>>14732509>>14732531Lacking anything to restrain Seb with, you try to untie the bandages around his hands, but they are kinda scabby and caked with blood, and in trying to remove them they just sort of shred apparet. You kick him in the balls a few more times for good measure. He does not even wriggle.
Take his coat.
>>14732509Seconding.Groin kick. Take jacket. Groin kick. Search jacket. Restrain prisoner.
>>14732547He's dead!
>>14732556I'm pretty sure he's already dead.
>>14732564Skip groin kicking then. Take jacket and go check on other prisoner. See if we can get her out of her cell.
>>14732547Oh shit, check for pulse, respiration, etc. If he is dead just loot his pockets for useful stuff.
>>14732558>>14732564Dear god, our groin kick is so powerful it should invoke Perils.
>>14732554This coat is way too big for you and smells like scrotal sweat. You decide, should the need arise, you might get it, but it's a lot to carry just in case.>>14732558No, just really really not moving.
Okay...So we know Seb is likely a Genestealer that looks human, hence his happy disposition recently with the Hive Mind getting closer.Nel is the lady pacing Block B, reports say she's harmless and a Tech would be helpful. A priority should be to get her out. However, these are prisoners for a reason so we'll wait a bit.The bastard in Block A has the photo we need to open the door. He's probably jacking off to it.So... we need to go up the ladder in the incinerator room to advance the plot. For the sake of suspense/horror we should leave Seb alone so his body disappears later because that's what always happens to bodies we leave alone.
>>14732615Rummage through the pockets, then try and get the depressive out of her cell.
>>14732649Yeah lets leave the body there it won't kill anyone.
>>14732615Strip him first in case he's carrying, like, weapons or a screwdriver or lockpicks or something.Then, shove him in the locker, shove something heavy in front of the locker, and wedge any small curved piece of metal in the lock-hole.
>>14732649Yes, I would put a shot in Seb's head but that either ends the primary threat or ruins a helpful purpose the author has planned for him. Either way it's not exciting so up the ladder.
Even though he insulted you, try to heal and/or comfort him into consicuoeness again.
>>14732649UP the ladder, you say? RokayThe other participent in the fight seems to be up here. It looks like he did better than Seb in many ways, but he's also way older.
>>14732688It's the Jet Set Radio DJ!
>>14732688H-H-Heal!
>>14732688Check for pulse, see if we can wake him up,If he won't wake up, try healing.
>>14732688Take his gun then heal.
>So... we need to go up the ladder in the incinerator room to advance the plot.To be fair, we have 3 NPCs we could talk to first.>The bastard in Block A has the photo we need to open the door. He's probably jacking off to it.Door's welded, though we could presumably break the window. Can't get prisoners out that way due to broken glass, but works for getting pictures in and out.
rolled 9 + 3 = 12>>14732700HEEEEEEAAAALL!!
>>14732688Heal.When he comes to, ask cautiously if he is Seb Deelogg. The EXPECTED response is "no, Vilmos" or "no, warden Hake" or something similar.
>>14732738OH FU-

>>14732776It would be really great if that were the one that makes clothing disappear.
>>1473277662, eh.WHAT DOES IT MEAN???? WILL WE GET GHOSTS??
>>14732781>>14732782>>14732785>>14732780Given the fact that the game hadn't been using DH rules up until this point, I wasn't expecting perils of the warp to go down.
>>14732785nope
Banshee Howl!
Standard DH is Banshee Howl: A deafening keening sounds out for a kilometre, shattering glass and forcing everyone in the area (including the Psyker) to make a Toughness Test or be deafened for 1d10 rounds.dunno what we'll actually get though
>>14732804see>>14730253>Psychic powers are done using the DH system. 1d10 + 3 in this instance.
>>14732806In a nut shell9 badroll again90 worseroll again90 psyker dies greater demon is summoned party dies.
On the plus side, the cell windows are probably open now.
>>14732823sounds evenful
>>14732812>shattering glassOh god the prisoners who may kill us all and rape our corpse
>>14732811Well... that'll let the other prisoners out.And let everyone in a kilometer know a Psyker's out and about.
>>14732776BANSHEEEEEEEEEE HOOOOOOWL!You lift into the air as the psychic scream eminates from you. You can hear the faint sounds of shattering glass below.
>>14732830Aside from "Daemons fall, everyone dies" that might be the worst, depending on why all these people are here.
>>14732837Luckily we did succeed in casting so he should be healed...or at least he's healed and now deff
>>14732837Hot.
>>14732837Boone that's rude say excuse me.
someone archive this I am going to bed
>>14732837See if person woke up, otherwise go downstairs and check on other prisoners.Also, are we deaf?
>>14732743 is my input and I'm sticking to it.
Your ears hurt, but mercifully youre not deaf. The man stirs, clearly healed, but still seems weak. he mutters something...
>>14732877Adding on to thisIf he makes a comment about your butt being big don't kick him in the balls its a compliment...in fact kick him in the balls if he doesn't.
>>14732890Once was not enough, Hit him with another heal :0
>>14732890Give him a bit of a slap to see if we can rouse him fully.
>>14732890Dwarves? could he mean Squa...[We apologies the Inquisition has removed this heretical thought from your mind, please continue thinking.]
I commend OP with the use of the cutscenes, equipment screeen and especially the roll screen.
>>14732925Just say squats. That meme died LONG ago.
>>14732890Looks like he's been mentally rattled. Maybe he just needs time to rest.Well, now that the glass is out of the way, we can go see to the other inmates!
I'll admit it, coming into this thread I had never known about 9 being a bad psyker number. Probably because I've only played WFRP and not DH.
>>14732943You know what else died a long time ago?You.
>>14732960Each Chaos God has an evil number associated with themTzeentch is 9Khorne is 6Nurgle is 3I think Slaanesh is 139 effects psykers because it means the psyker has stumbled into Tzeentch's domain.Generally the other gods use there numbers for rituals or to signal to there followers.
>>14732890Clearly he is referring to the sum of the numerals found on the gambling cubes commonly found throughout the Imperium 1+2+3+4+5+6=21. And the final statement is is obviously a reference to the well known tale about the Ivory-clad Sororitas and her retinue of seven Squats that brought the ministrations of the Emperor's healing to many a war-torn sector.Our door code is 217.
Sure enough, you go back down to the cells, and the windows are blown out.
>>14733008Say "Hi!" to the people in cell B and cell A, if they still exist. Remember that the person in cell A is a pervert, and may attempt to do inappropriate things to Boone.Ready a ballkick if need be.
>>14732996Shit, let's blow this popsicle stand!
You might want to have the laspistol ready.
>>14733028This every man for his/her self
>>14733008Imagen what Raeg will do if she finds out what happened...
Go back an check on the recently healed man. Also hide his gun or whatever that thing near him is for now.
>>14732996This occurs to you.
>>14733053probably because he thought we looked untrustworthy and based on how we've now let out every prisoner I am beginning to think he may be right.
>>14733078Not true!One was already out, and another got blown up.So we've only let out one prisoner, really.
Tune up the laspistol into a hotshot laspistol, just in case you run into something big.
>>14733050You call into the cell. There is no answer.
>>14733124Right, the Lights must have blown out too.Darn. Anyone have any ideas?
>>14733124That's the chronic masturbator cell isn't it? Why don't we check the B cell with the depressive tech priest.
The guy at the desk doesn't seem to have budged, or seem at all troubled.
Go to Cell B. Ready my pistol. There's likely Heresy afoot.
>>14733157You know, I'm almost willing to bet that our serial onanist is in possession of the picture of our warden's wife.And he isn't writing. I think we need a clever distraction we can enact with closed eyes.
>>14733089Nevermind, my bad. I thought our first failed power had caused prisoner B to explode.So yeah, we've let 2 prisoners loose. We're not very competent.
>>14733151The woman in cell B seems a little startled, but unhurt. She acknowledges you peering at her with a slow blink.
>>14733185"Hi I'm Boone... do you want to get out of here with me?"
>>14733185Blink back!! First one eye, then the other, wait a while, then both eyes. She needs to be cheered up by secret EYE BLINK CODE!
>>14733167... and now that I stop being a retard and actually read the damn dataslate journal, yeah, it's pretty much confirmed that he has it. And that the locker code is on the picture. I'm assuming it's not the locker we just shot open though.Now, uh... how to get it from him. Um, initiate conversation, prepare ball kick? He seems like too much of a loser to commit rape, at least.
>>14733185Charm her with our unjaded charisma."Hello! Are you ok?"
>>14733185Give her a hug she looks depressed.>niteramp brilliancycaptcha agree's
>>14733157Use the unconscious Seb to destract the pervert. The pervert gets laid, and you get the code on the back of the picture. Everybody wins!
>>14733198I concur. Make funny faces at her. Maybe we can make her less despondent!
>>14733185Hey, are you okay?
>>14733195>>14733198The woman seems okay with following you.
>>14733233"Trust me, you'll be brilliant!"Now we have to go and beat the pervent's ass. Why? I dunno, it's not like we need the locker code for the locker we broke into, but it just feels right.
>>14733233Hey CF!What was the inspiration for the Boone Special Kick there, anyway?Looks sort of Julia Chang to me, but I'm curious to know. =]Also, as Nel why she's in jail.And maybe, where are we?! (city, nation, etc)
>>14733233We should ask her why she's here.
And... Kaleb is dead. That's his half-chewed, half-drained husk sitting there...Or so my paranoid mind thinks.Neither prisoners look harmful, for now. Did we actually search Seb, before or after the Heal+Kick?>>14731942Also, there is a 2-4-3 number written in the text of the wife's letter. But then again, there is only 1 more try on the keypad...
>>14733242oh boy this is going to be eventful
>>147332512, 0, 3 and 4 were all present in the wife's letter.
>>14733246Yeah, lets ask her what's gooing on, where we are and why she's here.
>>14733265Not a zero, compare to the zero at the bottom: Genie XX0XX.Still, I think it is best to try and get the pict from Kaleb. I just hope we don't have to las him in the forehead for it.Also, find this drain the Warden's journal mentioned. A lucky coin? I hope it is Imperially sanctioned lucky coin.
>>14733242You and Nel go into Cell 1 to teach the pervert a lesson. Whoops. Seems he beat you to it. He appears to have sharpened the edges of a spoon, then plunged it through the top of his jaw and into his brain, killing himself. Huh. Guess he was serious.>>14733245Nel shrugs. She went in for a routine medical, and was taken here.
>>14733310Look at photo. Get a full view of the blood text on the wall.Also, who is writing this stuff? I don't think the pervert had much time to write it.
>>14733310Hug Nel.is, uh, Seb up and moving yet? If so, we probably don't want him to be up and moving, given that he attacked the Warden.
>>14733310Check the room. Something just doesn't seem right about someone killing themselves with a sharpened spoon....
>>14733310look at that hing in front of him
>>14733310What's that on the table?And what's that word obscured by Nel?If the handwriting is the same... I think we may be getting a picture of what happened here.I
This is awesome.Did we check the incinerator?
>>14733310Look at the picture, and check for a code on the back. And where is the beast that he wants to live long?So... out of four, one dead, two down.I think that's a good score for Boone on her own.
>>14733310He only wanted to be loved!Guess its time.
>>14733310. . .Check what the writing in blood says...Try to find the pict on Kaleb. Maybe in his pockets, or under a mattress.Or is it that thing on the table?Check the wastebin too.
>>14733310.....o.OHow...the hard palate! The soft palate! The force required....zomg.And he's probably only a little dead. It takes...Nevermind.Yeahp. Time to get the furball to Somewhere Else.Perhaps we should read that note he was writing before as well.Also, the text on the wall behind us?Long Live the Beast Within?
Ask Nel where we are.>>ervert judgmentsOh, and ask the Emperor to judge this man's soul.
>>14730253I was initially at a loss for what to do for my session of Dark Heresy tommorrow. Mind if I take this idea and whip it around a bit?
Goddamnit we already have the code for the door, Lets get some help from the warp room!
Hee. I'm waxing nostalgic here. "Take picture, hug Nel".Good times.
>>14733329>>14733327You search the cell, looking for anything suspicious. You find a photo graph of a woman holding a beer and some dubious literature in the trash.>>14733321The text on the wall reads "long live the best in me" . It looks dryer than the last batch.
>>14733384Nostalgic for Ruby Quest? You're in luck.
>>14733401Read this fine literature.I'm kidding, let's get outta here and take a look inside Cell C.
>>14733401Not good. Not good, not good.The guy was infected by a gene stealer. That's why he wanted sex so badly. Get out of the room now!
>>14733401"Tech Tush"?The new "6 Minute Abs"?
>>14733401Okay, check the back of the photo.
>>14733401Well, nothing to it. Look at the back of the pict, and the pict itself. +wonders about stupid sexy wife+It'd give locker combination, but 217 is probably door combination.Also, anything beyond the Maintenance room?And is the Exit locked?Are there no Warden's office, or at least his desk?
>>14733432Second. Check the back of the photo.
>>14733432Clearly you have to flip it turn-ways, bro.
>>14733421Warp room, go to eet.
We should probably try the Warp Phase door again.
rolled 3, 8, 1, 7, 4, 1, 1, 6, 7 = 38Seconding examining the back of the picture.Right, so Seb is a genestealer, the dead guy's a genestealer, is Nel a fucking genestealer?
>>14733481So that's why she's so depressed... it all makes sense now!
>>14733422>>14733426You go into Cell C. Nel seems, amazingly, even more upset than she was.
>>14733481Ask the two live fucks what they remember. Everything depends on what they remember. Also check the bodies for wounds on the torso.
>>14733492nope nope nope nope nopeSPIN KICK HER IN THE FACE!
>>14733481Ahh, damn.I think you called it right.Hence the routine check up and then arrest.She's also got a rather unpleasant pallor. That ain't good.
>>14733492Boone super comfort hug
I'm pretty sure genestealers want to be around other people to infect them and, you know, steal genes. The fact that she seems anti social makes me thinks she something else like a Psychic Null or maybe just depressed.
You flip the photo, revealing a message from Vilmo's wife, and her apparent luv-wife code for hi locker..
>>14733492Peels here!
>>14733492Wait.I just got the best idea ever.Telepathy on Nel.What can possibly go wrong?
I say just ask the woman why she is saying "oh no, oh no" like she knows something. Also ask what is she so afraid of (besides all the blood and strange happenings)?
>>14733492Peelz here
>>14733515>NullI can absolutely guarantee whatever is happening, that's not it.
>>14733515Psychic null is right out, because Boone is fine. She's likely just depressed.Seriously, go check on the other guys. Check them for wounds.
>>14733492Look in the same direction that she is looking.
>>14733525Guys, I have this funny feeling it might be 724.
Ask Nel what's wrong. Other than all the blood and viscera. And horror.
>>14733553We got that. We already blew up the lock to his locker, remember?
I suppose we could go right of our entry chamber now, since we never went that way. I think.Or we might want to try figuring out how to not get murderized by Nel when she inevitably wigs out.
>>14733532Nel explains that Seb has escaped and that Seb is quite unbelievably dangerous. She can't remember what happened earlier. She was working in one of the tunnels, and there was a cave in. Next thing she knows, she gets a medical, and is then taken here. She doesn't know anything else, and she's very sorry.
>>14733553That's the locker code, for the lock we shot off if I'm not mistaken.
....Nel's got this "I'm about to have a Xenomorph Hate Baby" look about her.I'm starting to think we should double tap her with the laspistol while we can.Anyone know offhand what the growth stages of a Genestealer are? If she's infected, what happens next before she's a full GS?
>>14733575Oh. Right. We should really check on him and kick him in the balls again if he's starting to get all uppity.
>>14733575Don't worry! Our faith in the Emperor will protect us! Also we have a gun.Are there other cells or areas to check? Maybe go further left from our original start point?
>>14733575Ok, right. Tell her everything is gonna be alright. No need to worry. Keep her in your sight. Watch her carefully. Ask her if she was wounded at all. Check one of the other areas. Also watch out for Seb.
>>14733575Ask if Seb is black.If not, I think we kicked him in the balls. Repeatedly.If we come into contact with him again, we should spectral hands to hold him steady while we grant him teh emperor's mercy.
>>14733575Okay, let's go back to see if Seb is still where he was.If he's still there, double-tap him.
>>14733575"Seb... Green hair, goes down to a swift ball kick? Why is he dangerous?"
>>14732380Oh, I get it!Chun Li!xDWIN!
>>14733575While it sounds really possible that she has been gene-infected... Well, Throne damn it, telepathize her now.Regarding locker... Is the Maintenance room the Warden's office? That's just... Pitiful.
>>14733575Aren't Genestealer eyes usually purple? Like Drizzt? I want to say she's okay.
Guys, we're picking up the PEELZ, right?I mean, they're right there and all.
rolled 4, 8, 4, 8, 1, 7, 9, 6, 3 = 50>>14733492http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXjEWfby_j0
Nel gulps hard and admits that she feels she's probably dangerous too. She says that she's happy to help you with whatever it is your here for, but that when it's over, she needs you to do something for her.You need to kill her. She wants you to promise.
... something tells me CF prepared that ballsack punishment achievement image beforehand.The odds of that happening were propably overwhelmingly in favor from the get-go.
>>14733587Genestealer infestations take centuries to develop. You don't just transform into a pure strain. Right now he is only infected which means if he reproduces his children will bare some mutation and eventually over generations you will start to see the horrible monstrosities we know and love.
>>14733628pic, damnit
>>14733575Yeah, that sounds like genestealer infestation, if I recall my Commissar Cain learnin's at all.She's not gonna flip out on us, though. Genestealer cultivation takes generations--it's dangerous if she has babies with anyone, but other than that it should be fine.Just your friendly neighborhood savant dropping in. The more you know!I say, give Nel a Boonehug because that's fucking adorable, and check out the front of that guy's wife's picture.
I hope this whole situation is being caused by some unconventional lesser faction of 40k. You know like by Rak'gol or enslavers or something. That would be unexpected as well as unexpectedly awesome.
>>14733628What can we do, but promise.*quiet nod, hug. Try not to cry a little.*
>>14733628Please! I'm a psyker! I carry dangerous in my brian-case!And then hug her.
>>14733628Make the promise. Also make a mental note to wipe this little moment from her mind once this is all over and it turns out she really isn't dangerous. Start looking for more clues.
>>14733628Promise, hug, maybe some telepathy.
>>14733638Good to know.I bear Nel the Unfortunate here no ill-will, but I suspect only rolling a whooooooole lotta sixes will save us in CC with a GS.
>>14733646There is one danger...if there happens to be a synapse creature nearby.
Hug her. Try not to get her pregnant.
Hug genestealer, receive cooties.
>>14733667This is DH, we want 10s
>>14733575Okay. So.The Warden is tired - and probably tired mentally.Seb is obviously evil and needs to be executed (and we healed him in ignorance, derp)Nel appears to be traumatised and has probably been attacked.Cell A's resident is dead.My advice:Grab peelzFind Seb, kill SebGo back to the Warden - see if he's awake and still present. If he's conscious and of sound mind, talk to him. If he's still muttering gibberish, Telepathy him. If he's dead, loot him. If he's missing, do nothing with him.Bring the Warden the picture of his wife - it's a nice gesture, at the very least.
>>14733685This seems a good a plan as any.
I vote searching for any more clues. In failing that, go check on those live dudes, gun drawn.Also hugs.
>>14733685Not sure I trust the PEELZ, but the rest is good show.I'm aboard.
You extend your arms and Nel falls into them, sobbing quietly. She hugs you tightly, not out of tenderness, but as a person clinging to something tactile, you, a bastion of humanity.Not wanting to spoil the mood you hold her tightly for 4 minutes or so before euqiring id Seb is black.No, he is not.
>>14732991no no no...Khorne 8Nurgle 7Slaanesh 6Tzeentch was right.
Lets get Nel out of here, and go Heal the Warden again.
>>14733736Ok, so we destroyed the right person's genitalia. Head to our fine colored friend with the picture. See if he's awake.
Break off a small bit of chocolate if you can spare it.This woman has seen things. Dark, terrible things and needs chocolate.
>>14733685You wander back to the maintenance room to heal the Warden, slowing your pace for Nel, who is not as spritely as you. She keeps mumbling things.
>>14733784What things?
>>14733784What things? Those key pads?
You back the warden whose still just saying the same thing over and over... It's time to heal this guy.
>>14733819Might want to remove any weapons first. It might get...dangerous if you don't.
>>14733784You know there are treatments for genestealer infection.One involves the removal of the implant surgically has a high survival rate, its just expensive. There may also be a lingering link to the hivemind, but it won't be able to influence you.The second is just castration which is cheaper, but no more children.
>>14733784>>14733797>>14733800Also, hmm?>>14733765I concur.It's a fine chocolate expenditure.
rolled 2 + 3 = 5
I'm so glad that /tg/ still wishes to be the little girl.
>>14733836Boo.
>>14733836Better take that gun away for now.
>>14733836well shucks.
Nothing happens.
>>14733867Disregard this, I need to refresh.
>>14733861Try again! Don't let this fine servant of the emperor die under your care!
>>14733861Take out the piece of equipment. As her if it's a reciever.
>>14733861Balls. Can we at least try to read his mind of any useful info?
Status screen time: how are we for Psychic Power?Also: would Chocolate restore one or two if we consume it?>>14733836Balls.We could try again.
>>14733844You take Vilmo's gun.You offer Nel some chocolate but she assures you that she's not hungry, and that it's wasted on her as she intends to be dead soon.
>>14733881Does Dark Heresy have a First Aid skill like 3.5e does? We should try using it, if we can use it untrained, or better yet, if Boone -does- have some ranks in it! Every little hitpoint counts, right? We might get lucky and roll really high!
>>14733897Nel speaks the truth, go get some allies from the warp transporter. Door code we already know is 217
I vote for status screen and also perhaps Nel could take a look at that spare part item we have in our inventory. In answering her question.. hmm."You're my friend Nel!".....
>>14733905Yeah, the Medicae skill. It's really hard to use skills untrained, and I'm not certain we're using DH ruleset for anything other than psyker powers.
>>14733897That's right do we have any friends here?Commissar Raeg, maybe cuddles? hopefully not one of those eversor assassins.
>>14733918Only one eversor, the other's a culexus. Which, as far as Boone is concerned, is probably worse, though Nada's pretty fuckin' cool.I agree! Status screen, then attempt another heal if reasonable!
You check your inventory. Looks about right.You show the part to Nel, she says its a good all-round device good for anything from dataslates to drilling devices. It has wires, resistors and even its own small power source.Nel assures you you don't want a friend like her.
>>14733950PEEELZ!!!!!!!!
rolled 6 + 3 = 9LAST SPURT! FOR THE EMPEROR!!!
>>14733971...uh oh
>>14733971I think we just rolled up some excitement again....For the Emperor!
>>14733979>>14733984Pretty sure it's only if the die comes up 9.Unless Culexus be messin' with us.
>>14733971oh boy here we go
>>14733984>>14733979Not quite how 9 works there, fellas.
>>14733979No, that's a six. Only natural 9's are dangerous.
Vilmos is up. He has questions.
>>14733950That was a stubgun? From the drawing I thought it was a double barreled sawed off shotgun and that Vilmo was one handing it like a boss.Also ask: NEL? Y U NO GOOD FRIEND FOR ME?
>>14734004give him the gun
>>14734004"We wanted to make sure you wouldn't hurt us as soon as you saw us. You can have your gun back. No raep plz?"
I have your gun, I'll give it back, but first answer a few questions for me please. 1. Where is this?2. What do you think is going on?3. Whats the last thing you remember?
>>14734024>>14734030He takes the gun and wanders off. Nel hopes he saves a bullet for her.
>>14734052Follow him. Ask what's going on and how to get the hell out.
>>14734063seconded
>>14734068OKAY Time to go to the warp room and get some helpThis is getting dangerous
>>14734068Oh dear. Welp, let's go over hope Vilmos isn't getting overpowered by some monstrosity (too badly).
>>14734068Shit, we haven't explored this area. Go right.
You head back down the ladder, with some difficulty, as Nel is just standing around, Vilmos is look into the now active incinertaor, with a look of satisfaction.(I may have to rail road or speed things up, sorry.) I have to got towork))
>>14734104"What... else was down here?"
>>14734104Oh, okay. Let's play again soon, this was really fun!
>>14734104What was that? We heard gunfire!
>>14734104H'okay
>>14734104That's fine, np. It's well into o'dark o'clock around here, so...yeah. Do as you gotta.
>>14734077Not the first time that's been suggested, you know the code, why not?Lets do this.You enter the code, the door chimes appreciatively.
>>14734139..I thought for a sec we got +217 xp for completing the puzzle....Tired. Heh.
>>14734104Thank you for doing this.
>>14734139Open the door. Anyone inside should WITNESS HER MOVES. (Begin dancing as moving through the door.)
>>14734139WHAT?!>>14732996You mean my bullshit was correct?
Looks like we have a warp transponder here. You're no whizz, but you know its only a reciever, sadly.
>>14734164Gasp! Buttons!Push the red one, it looks active.
>>14734164Call the for the black guy and/or press some buttans!>heaest bothor both, captcha suggested!
