Rolled 3 (1d20)

You make your way down to the limo, your Assets know damn well what they're doing and will be effective unless they want to meet the cleaners.

All those months have lead you to this simple little office out on the coast. quant, but it should be enough, you can't exactly talk business where some random employee can eavesdrop. you take a seat across from one rather well dressed man flanked by two guards. with a snap of your fingers your personal butler who've you've worked with for over two decades comes in and brings a pair of glasses and fine imported wine.

"Save the pleasantries, Rienholt" the man sneers. oh joy, it appears, you won't be having an easy time with this one.

"why I insist."

"no, but like certain types of gossip, alcohol is poison."

Grand, they know your behind the stories of their involvement in bioweapons, and don't seem very happy you'll be taking it off their hands either.

alrighty then.

"why that seems harsh, what ever have I done?"

"Shove it you viper."

"now where is that going to get us, consider what benefit exist to taking my deal, it would look a lot better for GenTek."

"Your angle is obvious, your trying to corner us into selling!"

"i'm not making you do anything of the sort, however, it would be a shame not to capitalize on the situation, mister?"

"Alexander, and forget it."

give me a 1d20

you make an extremely generous offer considering the worth of the company with it's less than pleasant controversy. almost immediately it's met with a rise in the selling price until you remind him that all the lab equipment is only worth half of the three million dolor offer you made.

"so do we have a deal?"

Alexander raises a hand to his ear. "proceed with the transaction."

18 success
1 critical failure

everything seems to go well, a stack of papers exchange hands and signatures are passed between the two of you, everything is about wrapped up when alexander jolts back and returns his hand to his ear.

"Repeat that!"

"is there a proble-"

"Quiet!"

well this was unexpected, alexander gets up and barks an order to his men.

"detain him."

your butler responds pre-emptively, tossing a dart into the neck of one of the gaurds and wrestling him to the ground. you draw your own tranq pistol to deal with the second.

Time to out edge Alex

you put two darts into the unprotected sleeve of the brute as you begin to stand up, once he reaches you mid attempted tackle you push him back and then turn your weapon on Alexander.

"how dare you-" is all he can say before taking a pair of darts himself.

you turn towards your servent. "I want them in their vehicle on the I-95. they won't make it to their destination."

after this you gather up the papers and pick up your cell. someone fucked up, you want to know who and why.

>>1445644

you call Shin. as your phone rings. . it rings . . and it keeps ringing. god damn-

"Rienholt this is not a good time at all."

"no it isn't, something went wrong and-"

"they have the entire building under lockdown and are wiping the server room, your code monkey just tried accessing the Fleshlight files."

". . . . . the what?"

"the fleshlight files"

"are you saying that my IT expert just nearly fucked everything up because he wanted to look at a file about sextoys?"

"the files on pen station, blackwatch the entire mess in New York that killed hundreds of thousands."

"and they named it. oh god damnit."

"we need those files Shin. you better have a solution."

"the paper files are still locked away, we can get your saboteur in there, but if she's caught we're done for and all the effort was for nothing."

"Just have her do it Shin."

you take a deep breath, all you can do now is submit these papers, and hope your agent doesn't blow her cover.

you are now Alexis.

that fucking techie managed to cock everything up, you made it to the server room just fine and now you have shin telling you to loot a safe room for a bunch of files labeled "fleshlight." you swear if your boss has you doing this for something to stick his prick into your gonna cut it off.

now how to get to the safe room.

>>1445789

you decide to take the Cruz/Willis method and get into the vents, after taking out and putting the cover back on, you begin to crawl up and make your way over to the files room, you can already hear the sound of heavy boots marching up and down the hallways.

You quickly crawl over several guards, employees, even making it past a small vehicle bay. one thing you notice is that as you get closer to the secure safe room, the guards seem to have swapped out their standard uniform for black full body armor and rifles. huh. eventually you get over to the hallway where the safe is, but the vent that goes into the safe isn't something you can unscrew and crawl through. and there are two Guards. . oh fuck that, these are soldiers with rifles.

You roll over to your back, and start cutting into the sheet metal of the vent shaft above you, and find that on the other side is drywall. you have to stifle a laugh.

you manage to raise your pistol to the soldier on the left and fire a round that goes through the eye of his mask, a brief squirt of crimson says all you need to know. the other soldier however lunges at you. as you fall back, the bayonet thrust leaves a gash in your leg along the thigh.

ignore the roll.

with one soldier silent in death and the other focused on you, nobody radios. you hear over your earpiece that camera's have been shut down around the facility. that would have been nice to know an hour ago, it would save you the heart attack.

Hey E88, what time does this take place?

>>1446284
several months after the end of prototype 2. after this operation we fast forward to December 2015 and prepare for the full quest.

you put two rounds into both eye sockets. the heavily armored soldier slumps right down. how fortunate.

now it's just you, two empty bodies with the keys, a wounded leg, and a safe with files on a male masturbation device.

you pull the key cards off of the soldier who you shot first. and walk over to the lock mechanism. . . and it's a retinal scanner. maybe it will work with one eye? you begin to drag over the corpse that you didn't completely destroy the eyes of and slap him onto the consol. to your surprise the safe opens.

Rolled 20 (1d20)

you are quite surprised when the safe hisses open.

It seems fleshlight wasn't just a bunch of files. but rather the whole room is a collection of salvaged materials from NYZ. infected civilians are kept in a suspended state, a severed arm rest inside a glass container, and there's even several vials kept behind bullet proof glassing and thick metal bars. safety deposit boxes line a single wall, files are kept in a clear alphabetical order, until you go past Z and 0, where your greeted with odd symbols rather than anything else identifiable.

>radio in.

i'm rolling in five minutes if anons don't decide.

>>1446353
>>radio in.
What exactly am Iooking for here boss?

you begin to radio in to Rienholt.

"R-Rienholt. what exactly is this fleshlight i'm supposed to be looking for?"

". . .what did you find?"

"it-it's hard to explain, but, oh my. it looks like I'm in a museum for the NYZ outbreak."

"really now? turn on your camera and have Francis patch me through. I want to see this for myself."

"yes sir"

the camera turn on and a moment later your holding it out for Rienholt to see. he sounds amazed at all the curiosities that fill the safe. an exclamation of "my god" when he see's the clawed, inhuman arm in the case and a brief fit of laughter when he see's the vials. DX-1121, DX-1134, DX-1135, and the one with additional secrutiy marked DX-1200/PRIH.

"my god Alexis, this is what I've been waiting for!"

"er, really?"

"yes! get the fleshlight files, if you can't get the vials that is fine, but try! oh, gods damned, I have to go. hurry!"

you turn off the cam, and then turn towards the vials.

>well you have your orders.
>get the files and leave.
>who cares about a bunch of papers, get the vials! its clearly what he wants.

>>1446465
>>well you have your orders.
I'm sure we could get both

>>1446465

>well you have your orders.

E88 I have a suggestion, stop using fleshlight before someone shows an image you may not like.

But in all seriousness. GET EVERYTHING

>>1446465
>well you have your orders.

>>1446497
well now I just have to download that body parts gun image I saw on /k/ a few nights ago just to post it here.

as the good master requested you shall obey. you begin by going over to the file boxes and picking the locks, you gather up all the files in the F section which actually comprised most of the wall, discarding anything irrelevant like field reports. in the end you have one bag full and another half way with some room to put the vials in.

well now, what to do about all this security glass and the bars. below them is a console, as well as a port that you can plug your phone into, if you had the right funny looking cable, one of the dead guards might have one. theres also the option of brute forcing it, but there isn't a way of telling how to get in there, maybe your wrist are skinny enough?

Breaking the glass is stupid but we also don't have time to loot dead bodies. Even though our gun is silenced we had a scuffle that left two dead bodies and a wounded leg on our part, we have to get out of here fast.

you head up to the controls and. . . what the ever loving fuck is this?

on the panel there are keys for what looks like an upside down F with a row of spikes along the back, and a series of 9's lock in a circle together. and the hell is this squiggly line?

it was easier getting this than it was the others, just had to pick two locks at once, and using your teeth was the real trick. once that was done a trick with a pocket mirror got you in.

you grab the vial, eww, why the hell does that rich bastard want this? you put the squirming thing into the bag with the others, glad that Gentek makes such weird high tech containers for squirming eldritch abominations.

as you head outside of the safe you radio in. "ok, mission accomplished, I have the files and the vials, can I please get the hell out of here?"

"yes, just a moment the mercenaries our employer contracted should be attacking the south side of the building right about."

that's when you hear the shout of "Allahu Ackbar" and an explosion. great, his escape plan was a fake terrorist attack.

"now, get out and follow the swamp, there will be a cabin when the river meets a fork. stay there and before the lockdown is over a hover craft will come for you."

December 5, 2015.
Rienholts office.

it has been years, years of examining and dissecting the vile things in the vials that Alexis has brought you. amazing work she did, it was only fitting to give her a position as your "personal assistant." it almost did make you reconsider when she insisted keeping that spineless worm Francis alive. no mater now, year later and you finally have some idea what those vials contained. while the nightmare of NYZ went on, these viral cultures were doing very interesting things. one had evolved to become a type of armored mold. you've never seen anything like it. of course the laboratory was a little dismayed to have burnt so many samples, and do away with others, but why worry when more can be made. others spread like the plague, becoming those giant wall coverings of meat that had occupied so much of the red zone, interestingly, a few of these were building up spores. the Gentek scientist who wrote the reports you received were particularly worried about the spores that were developing in these sacks. a giant pustule erupting and spreading a virus so deadly to so many people in almost an instant, it would have been unthinkable. and finally the mutagen in vial 1121. oh how remarkable, to make a near cripple into an athlete, you would have injected yourself if you didn't see even greater potential with one asset you haven't found, DX-1118 F strain. you really want to know how this mutated out of the "evolved."

You've had Shin looking out for where this particular strain would be kept. and many years later to your surprise, it's coming to you.

in 2014 Gentek and significant portion of blackwatch dissolved and their assets were sold, if not destroyed. some of their viral assets for instance are being moved to storage facilities. interestingly that same facility you had raided is being closed down and a new vault underneath the very city of Lauderdale is going to be housing a large number of these. you must remember to reward Shin for this later.

for now you have an empire to run. as much fun as it was pumping out pills and making a fortune over the last couple years, it looks like this Trump fellow is going to bring an end to that. a pity but now would be the time to use your fortune to get into the private arms business, someone has to replace the crumbling blackwatch after all.

>start focusing on making your super soldiers.
>that Armor Mold strain, it would be amazing to make some tanks out of it, perhaps you should look into that.
>if there was a way to control the spread of the DX-1135 strain, it would be invaluable as a bioweapon, perhaps the military would be interested in having an arsenal of that once more.

Naw I'm messing. Lets go for bio-trans-humanity

you begin revising employee contracts, and start looking for new hires, how fortunate that blackwatch has begun to crumble, you would have to be some kind of crazed sociopath to want to be injected with this stuff. it amazes you that so many lunatics were recruited into that organization, but then again, a useful lunatic is still useful at the end of the day.

a week passes, and boy are the results coming in, so many new recruits and you only have the first four strains from the base culture developed. after so many years and now you get to finally put your efforts into motion. it just tickles you on the inside, although that's what the first subject said it felt like his injection was doing to him.

subject two who was injected with the strain modified slightly with a touch of the DX-1135 strain seems to swell up like a balloon, this is before seeming to have his intestines spill from bellow his gut and start shambling around aimlessly before collapsing and becoming one with the floor in a more literal fashion than necessary. it was very messy clean up.

the DX-34 strain modified soldier seems to be about as big as the average Spartan mk2 soldier, unlike the mk2 soldiers, this man seems to have developed a kind of armored plating under his skin. after an incident involving a stolen rifle and an executed scientist confirms it's indeed bullet proof, you begin running him through a battery of test for his endurance, and while he is capable of amazing feats of strength in short burst, he seems to grow weary after a while.

the last test however was the most concerning. modified with the DX-1200/PRIH strain, the subject died almost instantly from injection, after a day of isolation of slowly mutating into an unrecognizable form of hardened calcified flesh, twisted bones, and rapidly contracting exposed muscle, the subject broke out of containment and began eating one of your scientist. it took the loss of both former successful experiments and about ten of your newly ripped off blackwatch employees to put down the monstrosity. they have recommended you not have any experiments done with the DX-1200 anymore.

after buying a lab for them to further the study of the strain you get back to examining what else to do with the rest of the strains.

Assuming that you can make ones that don't die on injection, go mad, or that you'll have control over what they do. Very unlikely.

[x] Inform the scientists that what they are doing is a transhumanist effort, not one of quiet worship. If they want to worship the object of their research, that's fine, as long as they don't let it get in the way of their "holy" purpose. Make sure the quotations are holy are there on the memo.

>>1447581
Good idea

Ok, finally good to run, booting up PC and writing.

you don't really care one way or another what your scientist do or start in their free hours, as long as they are serving their purpose during their work hours. you do however take note to use their inclination towards worship to your advantage when possible.

ah the results of their work. so far they haven't done much except some comparisons to the human genome, you don't really know what to make of it, you do take away that this material tends to rewrite itself and whatever is put in front of it, for instance when putting some human tissue in front of it a sample turned it into bone like spikes the first time, and in a follow up test made it a hard calcium like material.

getting back to your need to acquire the DX-1118 samples, Shin and Francis have competing idea's. Shin believes that amid rising fears of the terrorist group known as isis crossing into the country from the border, it would be possible to stage a terrorist attack on the convoy delivering the samples to the Fort Lauderdale vault. Francis on the other hand claims this is too risky and can destroy the samples in the attempt to get them. Francis claims the best way to get it is with a hacking program he recently found the keys to on the dark web, in short, he can hijack the vehicle and drive it somewhere so it can be robbed. Alexis really doesn't have much of an opinion, she does however note how badly Francis screwed up the first time, and then teases Shin for being "a snitch."

>Shin's plan, False flag and steal it.
>Francis's plan, use his "missing CIA software" to jack the vehicle.

>Francis's plan, use his "missing CIA software" to jack the vehicle.

Rolled 5 (1d20)

you take a deep breath, and tell them to knock it off before you ask one of them to lay down on a table in the research labs. then you question Francis a bit.

"are you sure you can turn the convoy vehicle into an RC car?"

"hey if the CIA can do it." you wonder why he keeps bringing up the CIA, they haven't been useful in years.

Shin cuts in. "And if the truck is old enough that it doesn't make use of any kind of internal computer, how do you think your going to get the serum then."

"it'll work I doubt that the Org they are sending to move the samples are going to be able to stop their own vehicle, or use such outdated equipment that it wouldn't even have a basic computer with steering and throttle adjust."

"Francis were going with your plan."

they all seem a little surprised as you begin to contact your mercenaries and start making the necessary arrangements, that being a garage to pull the vehicle into.

You have one problem right now, eyes on the convoy confirm they have tanks with MG's driving on both sides front and back of the transport vehicle.

From a rooftop, Alexis has a complicated looking transmission device. it's very expensive equipment, but will be well worth it if it can do it's job.

Shin on the ground radios in, the mercenaries in the kill bay are ready once the vehicle rolls in.

Francis says he has the program ready to transmit, he just needs Alexis to aim him at the transport.

it's an amazing display of competence you have to credit them all on that.

after a short amount of time passes, Francis radios in. "i can't get in, unless we have a way of shoving something into the vehicle itself at a distance, i've failed."

your about to have him killed when something unexpected occurs. gun and rocket fire, you didn't order your mercs out here.

"Shin, why are my mercenaries out here firing upon the tanks?"

". . sir, all of your mercenary soldiers are still here with me in the garage."

"come again?"

"they're with me in the garage."

"then who the fuck is attacking the convoy!?"

Alexis begins to move in on the tank, by the time she reaches the street level, one of the tanks is unable to fire the main gun. theres a group of marksmen in the back line, a good chance you'll be spotted if you go directly towards the cargo truck.

Alexis is about to dive for the truck from just under the front of a tank, when it rolls forwards, crushing her leg.

the tank does roll back quite fortunately, and she gets her leg free, the next rocket fired by the unknown terrorist goes wide and takes out a rifleman and his spotter.

she manages to make it on her elbows and knee. pulling a wire down and adding a small pod to it, she pushes it back into the body of the vehicle and pulls herself up so that she's off the ground.

"i'm going to have to be under the truck, my fucking leg is destroyed."

"shit, i'm sorry to-"

"Shut the fuck up Francis and drive this fucking thing, I need medical attention you god damned nerdy cumstain!"

as the cargo vehicle rounds the corner, a hail of gunfire takes out the rear left tire, and it begins to crawl towards the garage. one of the tanks breaks formation and goes to block the trucks path.

A RPG takes out the track of the motorized infantry, leaving it obstructing the way for the rest of the tanks. several soldier move to intercept the truck of blacklight, even the terrorist take the risk of moving out of position to stop the escape, that's when the garage doors open, and the mercs come out to play.

the garage door doesn't seem to want to come down. which presents a problem, as the mercenaries are only few in number, they can't hold off this onslaught for very long. Shin arrives at the cargo bay with a pair of your more trusted soldiers. who quickly join the fighting.

"this is turning into a real shitshow Rienholt! if we don't get that door closed some idiot might shoot the truck and cause another pen station style incident."

"why the fuck are you telling me, get that door closed, i'm not letting this all be for nothing!"

you can't train a blacklight creature. even heller had to resort to killing the alpha of a group of Juggernauts and that was temporary control.

September 2016.

it's time for your injection, this first of many, but what may be by far the greatest, today you'll cast off that mortal coil, today you'll become a god! as was Zeus, as was Ares! its almost here.

just five more minutes, the anticipation eats at you, Alexis in her wheel chair can't wait to see, she has the next scheduled injection. the very though of become evolved has made Shin elicit a genuine emotion, even if it was for a minute.

"the table has been prepped sir, please come on in."

you make your way to the table, the toothed grin on your face shows your need to start this. the scientist ask you to take your place, and allow the restraints to auto lock. you comply.

the anticipation damn near kills you as the machine with the syringe begins to fill up with the black and redish liquid. "remember to keep calm" they tell you. calm! your on the edge of divinity, calm would be insane!

you take a deep breath, and give a slight laugh (read cackle) as the machine moves it's needle to your arm.

the pain, the pleasure, its just too much. it feels like your in torment in heaven, on ecstasy in hell! every nerve in your body is firing as it's destroyed and rebuilt. you look down to your arm, and the flesh seems to twist and meld with your blood rapidly, your entire arm seems to become a swimming mass of black and red tendrils and a sick cracking and reshaping of bone, and not even half a second later it looks how it once was. the sensation spreads, as you see your chest rise and fall, in strands of biomass. your senses go in and out, you cant see and then you can, you fail to hear the cries of "my god" and "holy shit" only to hear a high pitched wail of "is that normal?" you tries to cry out in the confusion of sensation but nothing is heard, the next moment your shout causes ears to be covered. this is all far to grand! its all too horrible! you can't stand the sheer overload of raw sensation! it's. . . too. . . . . . . much.

>>1448903
Ohboy. Somebody fucking got legs.

the next several injections go over extremely well, Alexis was surprised to find her leg in the same condition as it was when she was injected, but after a moment of focus on it reformed the limb back to how it should look. for was in shock for a full minute. Shin goes up, and takes his injection with the most insane appearance of calm you've ever seen even Alexis screamed in agony, this chink son of a bitch just clenched his teeth and went with it. and finally there's Francis. cowardly, Francis. he really protested until the others talked him into it, and even you had to take a moment to get up and stretch your limbs, as well as the back of your hand upon the face of a doctor who insisted you rest. Rest is for the dead, you've been reborn. a simple palm on the boys shoulder and an utterance of "get on the table, trust me" is all it took to get that wet blanket into the operation room.

not all of the QM rolls are going to be open or obvious, several events are still being determined in this quest, your actions have shaped them considerably. for instance I was expecting an RPG to hit and a new redzone to just develop then and there during the heist. nope, dice said no.

>>1448929

November 8, 2016
you take a deep breath and smile. you've been so busy, taking over a crime ring so you can have an easy supply of gutter dwelling degenerates to feed upon has taken it's toll.
you stretch and are about to crack your back when your remember you can adjust that with a thought. you head out to the living room and find your three agents and butler gathered spaced out on your sofa's with a jar filled with money in the middle.

"the fuck is all this?"

"a betting pool on the election, master rienholt."

"I can hardly call it a betting pool, Francis is throwing his money away." Alexis chirps in.

"wait for it." quips Francis.

you sigh. "does anyone know a damn thing about that group that attacked the convoy yet?"

"no, and sorry Francis but this was a stupid bet on your part." Shin replies.

annoyed you shut off the TV and reassert the question. "we need to know who is that was, because now we have a target on our backs, we may be near gods now but our assets aren't something we can keep protected if the feds find out we were involved, so I ask again. why don't we know anything."

once the initial groaning subsides Shin takes a moment to explain just why he can't find anything. "they had no logo, no symbol, and no recognized uniforms. even after consulting a DNA database for the blood spilled we had nothing. whoever these men were, they simply didn't exist."

Francis chimes in "I haven't found anything with facial recognition software, that shit is supposed to be near flawless. we can find men in mask and where they live with ease, but as shin said, these fucks just don't exist."

"its ISIS." Alexis states flatly.

its never ISIS.

>>1448963
Clones maybe, CIA? Maybe those left over that were already infected?

You leave the living room after turning the TV back on.

"and Florida is called for Donald Trump."

Shin: "what how?"

Francis snickers as Alexis grabs him by the collar of his shirt and shakes him ferociously.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH! WHAT DO YOU KNOW, LITTLE ASSWIPE!"

"how people think." he says with a smile as he grabs his glass.

you close the door behind you as you hear the sound of the money jar shattering and very severe beating. now you have the quiet to think, it can't be Heller, he's one man and has been avoiding blackwatch and anything related like the plague. has yet to appear in the news for the last two years except in speculation pieces. who?

you decide it's time to check in on your scientist in the underground experimental lab in the morning. unlike the rest of the employees, they aren't bitching and moaning, or worse, excessively celebrating last nights events.

what they've done while your away is create a very simple bio computer. not a very good functioning one from the demonstration they give.

"this PRIH substance is incredible. I've never seen even stem cells be this adaptive and flexible. come i'll show you."

what your shown defies all logic. one minute they induce it to respond like a speck of skin, and the next under microscope examination it's a brain cell.

"that isn't all, watch."

when they split a sample into two and place them on the table facing each other, and prod one with an electrode, the other responds in much the same way. mimicking it as if the jolt was experienced while connected.

"we don't know how it works, but every time, the same event occurs."

you really have no idea how to handle this. you leave and head to your office to think. you think and think but nothing, your too burnt out. you need to relax, have a little fun. . . what is fun?

You order the interior design team to do something special and make the interior appear as a mix of Victorian and Gothic Era Architecture and decoration, with a sprinkling of Greek and Roman Accentuation. The results are glorious, and manage to make the outside of the building look like trash by comparison, draping some banners out of the flagpoles seems to help fix this quite nicely and looks quite aesthetic in a very authoritarian way. This pleases the senses. the guest list is long and your PR department did a good job filtering out some "undesirables" from the suggested list. you were curious they removed several pop stars from the guest list, and were a little more shocked to hear their explanation.

now onto the Senator, you know Nelson is a "Moderate Democrat" and is a former NASA Payload specialist. there isn't exactly an abundance of astronomers in the gutter to eat so you don't have much in that department. he seems rather relaxed and more focused on having a good time than anything else, maybe a discussion on your hobbies?

you strike up a conversation about how odd scientist can get, he seems rather interested and even tells the stories of all the pranks he played on the German scientist in his NASA days.

in the end, you learn what everyone already knows about the DNC, how confused the fed is about what to do with the attacks on blackwatch troops, and some new assertions by the president elect about how blackwatch has been underperforming and should be scraped. an opening.
________________________

time passes and it's about two hours into the party, you some special guest, for one the new president has taken some time out from the festivities in Mar-a-Lago to give a brief congratulations on your recent success and to thank you for hiring American with the former blackwatch soldiers. Along with him, came several other well known individuals and celebrities. enough musicians came that you now have an impromtive concert on the second floor. overall it's turned out to be a good night.

>>1449526
Everything turned out better than expected

>>1449526
Are you saying we have Presidential skin flakes and can now imitate his DNA, if not his biometrics?

come morning and one long period of handling the cleanup and you feel very relaxed. it's been too long since you've gotten to unwind and act like a normal human being. that said most of your staff had been needing a break, even your agents need some way to enjoy themselves.

unfortunately somethings not quite right. a number of your scientist who were at the party have gone missing, as in they vanished and left no traces of where they had been, you spend a day questioning the three and combing over your own memories but you just have no recollection of eating them. did they just leave and skip town? you do find some of their research either trashed or burned, but most of the major reports are still there. one of them comes in late for work and seems quite ragged and mentions something about a road trip.

>press further.
>eat him
>go back up to your office you need to think, plan, it might be time to move the samples and materials to a new office.

also anons, i'm running out of space for the story here, once we hit December that's when main quest starts. thing is there may come a point in the near future where my update capable schedule changes, the main reason I had planned on running in the winter. should I keep going and start the main quest at the end of this thread or should I keep to waiting till winter?

>>1449596
>press further.
Well what the fuck

If you feel like you're ready, then I would do it next thread. A fresh start for the story. The question is if WE are ready

>>1449596
>press further, but state there are no issues if they just got totally trashed.
>Eat him once done to verify everything and get things moving to a new office.

Personally, I say keep running. Long as you have a twitter or something to keep us updated when you plan on running its fine.

>>1449596
>eat him and start moving the lab and samples

>>1449596
Nobody will remember your quest come Winter. None of the fans you've made here will click the link or remember your ID.

Run the normal quest until you can't anymore, then take a hiatus.

>>1449622
I'm sorry but If I see an old ass quest I was part of popping back up. I stop in.

>>1449608
if anything I have this trip and quest thread general. I could probably set up a twitter. but seems the consensus is to keep running.

also, fair warning, you've done well enough the MC is going to have a fucking hell of a god damned time when the next thread comes.

looks like question him further and then eat him wins, so i'll write that up in a minute. I need to get some water.

>>1449596
>press further.
Don't eat him, we gonna make our lat rats bolt.

"so they all took a road trip north is what your telling me."

"that's right."

"why? inauguration isn't for two months and there's no big event I've heard about."

"well, you see. they kinda wanted to leave the country."

"is that right, you mean to tell me my quiet and dedicated staff which has shown no interest in the political season has decided to flee the country from the man they cheered for and thanked for the visit yesterday."

"uh, y-yes, you see, most of us didn't really know much about the election or the candidates until the other night, so a few midnight google searches later and, uh, some of us decided to get moving. . heh. . . eh, boss?"

"Very well, thank you for your honesty."

"oh it's my pleasure miste-"

you sink a knifehand into his chest, only the tendrils you throw into him seem to be dismembered from your arm before large red and black blade of chiton slices halfway through your limb. you jump back and find yourself faced with the scientist and his blacklight mutated arm, with glowing green veins.

he lunges at you, swinging wide.

You dive out of the way of the blade of the scientist. as the blade passes over your head cleaves a surgical table clean in two. your about to make a break for the exit when the lockdown doors come crashing down. your former employee with his hand the button of the emergency button. by now an alarm has been triggered to order everyone out of the building until a time that its deemed safe. you are not safe, your trapped inside of a room with an evolved who's arm is glowing a color it by all means shouldn't.

You take a deep breath as the scientist starts approaching you almost like a mindless drone. it's arm extended towards you from the elbow. You quickly form a tower shield sized wall of chiton from your left arm, and a thin, long double edged blade from your right.

roll 1d20+3 to engage.
+2 if you can demonstrate some martial arts knowledge and describe how Rienholt sword and boards.

I doubt our sword is meant to swish swish, So we must stab stab as the internet says. Would you say this is boardsword size or glades?

Add +2 if I'm right.

Rienholt seems like a crafty-stabby guy, so he should play off of other people's misconceptions, right?

Keep the shield held between us and him so that he gets accustomed to it being there while we fight and it seems like a standard knight's duel. Then, feint a swing with our sword arm and grow a blade from the shield arm while he's distracted to impale him with.

No idea boss, I'm a gun man

Two 19's and they come after the first three rolls. oh well.

15 great success.

you allow the strange new evolved to swing heavy handedly at your shield as if wielding an axe, being sure to let it only roll along the edge of the chiton plating. as his third swing is deflected, you raise your sword arm over the shield and thrust into the arm of the Scientist. as he stands still you slam him with your tower shield and slam him again into a wall. certainly someone must have heard that with the large crack it left.

quickly the evolved begins to get back up. attempting to jump over you to swipe at your back.

roll 1d20+2 and you got lucky you made 15, remember what I said about hard mode.

If we get ONE more bloody 19, I'm insisting we name a Blacklight strain after it or something

>>1449911
D-19+

21 major success

the creature gets over your head and begins to swipe, but finds the tower shield in it's way. you stop the blow from doing any form of damage but it forces you to reel back, and the bizarre evolved tries to take advantage this and swings from overhead, and finds it's blade stuck on your shield.

roll 20+3 to retaliate.
+2 if Rienholt can come up with something very cruel to do to the scientist when you find those traitors.

if it becomes another sextoy joke i'm hanging myself.
