Dr Archeville Posted March 16, 2009 Author Posted March 16, 2009 The man-sized blob-monster is hit... and freezes.
Sandman XI Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Wesley walks toward the frozen man-sized pooblob, taking a good look at his handiwork. He looks back to Mashin-kun, noting the boy is still right behind him. He doesn't fault him for following, "I know you can help, but I wanted to make sure of what this thing was. Now hold back this is gonna get messy." He grasps the flashlight like a bat and slams it over the head (if it can be called a head) of the giant blob.
Dr Archeville Posted March 17, 2009 Author Posted March 17, 2009 It explodes into a shower of goo. Acidic goo. (Knight needs to make a DC 20 Toughness save)
Sandman XI Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Wesley tries to duck out of the way of the splatter, but he gets a little bit on him and it burns him. Holding his tongue as he quickly tries to get the acid off of him, his exclamation of pain would have been a lot worse if the kid weren't around.
Veiled Malice Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 "Are you okay?" Daisuke said worriedly as he rushed up to Wesley's side. "You need to put something on that, like milk! It'll nuta... nutil... stop it from burning you." He looked around for something he could use, but down here in the sewer, there wasn't much. "Listen, I should do this. I'm made out of metal, I can take it!" He said, his eyes shining with determination.
Sandman XI Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Wesley shakes his arm as the acid flies off, "Well, it isn't sticky. so I'm fine there." He looks to Mashin-kun with an approving smirk, "So, you tired of being scared of Blobzilla?" His smirk turns into a grin, "So it's just us two versus it! We're going to be heroes! Like Centurion and The Raven!" He points the flashlight in the direction they found the blob as he continues to walk, "Now let's do this!"
Veiled Malice Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 "Yeah!" Mashin-kun said, thrusting his metal-shod fist into the air. Now fired up, his fear of the dark vanished, and he was ready, even eager, to charge into battle. In fact, he was so ready to roll, he didn't even question the fact that Wesly had basically just called him Raven... a girl. Instead, he started stalking down the hallway, a huge, fierce grin on his face.
Dr Archeville Posted March 29, 2009 Author Posted March 29, 2009 The two continue one, down the murky depths of the maintenance/sewer tunnels. Knight's life-sight still detects no traces of regular life, nor of any more poo-blobs. A faint light in the distance -- a good 100 feet away -- catches the duo's attention. Two poo-blob life-signs near the light draw Knight's attention.
Sandman XI Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Wesley wonders if Maskin-kun knows he means him as the first Raven and the kid as The Centurion. Kids hese days think Raven is just a woman in a tight clingy outfit. Sure she wasn't bad to look at in the suit. His random thoughts were cut off when he saw two pooblobs! He looks to Mashin-kun with a nod to one of the things indicating he'll take that one and he should take the other. With a quiet countdown from "five", he gets himself in the running position. By the time he mouths the word "one" he takes off, focusing on the blob that he had chosen as his target.
Veiled Malice Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Mashin-kun wasn't privy to Wesley's thoughts, and, being barely a teenager, was more or less unaware there was a Raven before the current incarnation. That faded into insignificance when the two blobs showed up, and he looked to Wesley, seeing if the man had a plan. He wasn't quite sure what the look the man gave him had been all about, but when he dashed off, Daisuke just shrugged his shoulders and did the same, hammering the thing with incredible force.
Dr Archeville Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 Knight's beam misses the blob he aimed at. The blob Mashin-Kun runs to explodes, showering the machine boy in acidic goo. To his horror, some of the enamel/paint on Mashin-Kun's fist is eaten away by the blob's secretions! Worse, the blob that was next to it attempts to engulf the robo-boy! Fortunately, the robo-boy proves too quick for it, pulling away in the nick of time.
Sandman XI Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 Wesley sees that his partner is in trouble of becoming poo foder and quickly tries to focus on the blob he missed. A stale blue aura surrounds him as he focuses. Nothing comes of it.
Veiled Malice Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 Mashin-kun drew back in disgust, grimacing at the goop covering him. "Oh yuck! I'm gonna get a disease or something!" He stopped and considered that for a moment. "Okay, well, I can't really get a disease, with the whole 'not being alive' thing, but still... eww." He turned to face the new blob, very much uneager to face it in single combat. His clothes were ruined enough, thank you very much. He looked around for something he could use to bash it with, maybe something he could tear off a wall...
Dr Archeville Posted April 13, 2009 Author Posted April 13, 2009 The Mashin-Kun-sized Blob-Monster attempts to again envelop the lad... an, again, the boy is too quick.
Sandman XI Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 "This one is getting slippery," Wesley grunts as he glows with a stale blue aura. Focusing on the blob, it begins to glow the same stale blue. The colors mixing don't look really pleasing, but Wesley messes around with it some trying to find where it walks or slithers or whatever it does and tries to stop it from doing so.
Dr Archeville Posted April 17, 2009 Author Posted April 17, 2009 The man-sized blob locks up completely.
Sandman XI Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Wesley slowly walks toward the non-moving blob. He knows it can't move a muscle (or whatever it had), but he can never be too sure about these things. Remembering the last time he swung at a blob, he gets in a more defensive position to avoid the splatter. With all of his might, he swings at the man-sized pooblob. When the blob explodes he's ready for it and jumps out of the way.
Dr Archeville Posted May 1, 2009 Author Posted May 1, 2009 Blobs are exploded, and showers of acid are avoided. The source of the "faint light in the distance" you two had seen -- faint when you first saw it from 100 feet away, but more intense now that you're much closer -- can now be seen. The section of tunnel you two are in opens to a chamber, and light (mooonlight? street lights?) stream down from a few grates above. The chamber has a fairly high ceiling (and you realize the tunnels you were in must have sloped down some), with pipes of varying sizes leading in from all directions, some low to the ground and some high on the walls creating trickling waterfalls. You don't want to stand under those waterfalls. The chamber is big -- Knight's flashlight just barely reaches the far end of it. [[ Notice checks, please ]]
Dr Archeville Posted May 17, 2009 Author Posted May 17, 2009 Mashin-Kun stays a few steps behind Wesley, not entirely sure what to do in this foul, horrible place. Wesley, keeping his eyes peeled for danger, sees more than he'd ever hoped to see: he realizes that two of the 'waterfalls' are not spilling off a slimy section of wall, they're splashing off a gargantuan brownish-greenish poo-blob! Worse, in front of it were two smaller (though still huge) blobs, and in front of them were five even smaller (though still quite large) blobs! Wesley could only imagine what further horrors would occur if these things were allowed to continue. He'd seen what a few dog-sized blobs had done to some joggers -- he didn't want to imagine what these could do! SewerBlobMapv2.xls
Sandman XI Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 Wesley looks around at the pooblob lair. "Well, it looks like we're in the right place at the right time," he quips. Feeling a second wind come upon him, he focuses all of his biokinetic energy into a protective shield. He looks to the robot child, "This is where we save the day," he chuckles. Looking back to the room he rushes toward the one directly in front of him, trying to go directly through it!
Dr Archeville Posted May 18, 2009 Author Posted May 18, 2009 Wesley charges through one of the large blobs, trying to reach the Big Momma. Its viscous form proves far thicker than he'd anticipated, and he gets stuck halfway through... but in the short time he was in it, his bio disruptive aura destroyed it! One of the two huge blobs, and three of the large blobs, move to encircle Knight. SewerBlobMapv3.xls They all lash out with hideous pseudopods... but only one, the large one behind him & to his left (which caught him a bit off since he was sure it was going straight for Mashin-Kun) lands a blow. Even as the shock of the blow registers in Knight, his own biodisruptive aura lashes out and destroys it! SewerBlobMapv4.xls
Sandman XI Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 The world slows down a bit for Wesley. His nerves deadened to the pain of feeling the horrible beasts sting, but they still hit like bricks, large gelatinous bricks.
Dr Archeville Posted May 18, 2009 Author Posted May 18, 2009 The final large blob, straggling a bit, rushes in towards the (tasty) Wesley. SewerBlobMapv5.xls Once again they all lash out with hideous pseudopods. The two large ones behind and to his sides make solid contact, but their hideous, slimy 'flesh' dissolves away almost as soon as they touch Wesley's aura. One of the two huge ones also lands a bone-jarring blow, and it is evidently made of stronger stuff because it does not show even the slightest discomfort when it contacts Wesley's aura! SewerBlobMapv6.xls
Sandman XI Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Covered wholly in the gunk these things are made from, Wesley wipes the stuff from his eyes. He still is recoving from the huge blow he was dealt meer seconds ago, but for him it has been an eternity. Finding his mark, he chuckles, "Let's dance, big momma." He rushes headlong into the biggest blob diving into it.
Dr Archeville Posted May 18, 2009 Author Posted May 18, 2009 Wes's moves towards the blob, in direct conflicts with the reptile part of his brain that's screaming "run away!!!" He hits a particularly thick section of 'cell wall' and is unable to simply dive in, but his touch does have an effect on the gargantuan thing. It doesn't completely pop, but a large hole does appear in it, and it spills goo all over him. The blobs move closer... SewerBlobMapv7.xls and lash out again with the pseudopods, blindly seeking a meal and not comprehending the danger Wes has posed to their 'siblings'. The smallest one, directly behind him, misses. One of the two 'medium ones on his sides hits, though it explodes into a shower of goo as it lands a solid blow. The gargantuan one wobbles a bit. SewerBlobMapv8.xls
