THE THING - GAME TWO is FINISHED

[Lavarinth]

Just give us our rolls so we can move on with our lives.

*casts Stasis field on Lavarinth*

[Lavarinth]

Not agai-!

[DrumsofWar]

Lavarinth tries to attack Saint_Kerrigan in retaliation for his aggression.

Flyinghat really does taste like chicken.

Thalraxal's face has begun to smell like month-old chicken.

Milldawg's corpse is getting there too.

Saint_Kerrigan pulls out his trusty plundered gun against Lavarinth believing him to be the Thing.

WedgeAntilles eyes his beautiful knife-gun but instead, decides to makes an antigen item for fighting the Thing and gives it to AA7Dragoon.

Tramau is dead, still gripping the Thing antigen in his bullet-riddled arms.

AA7Dragoon decides to pilfer Milldawg's shotgun which everyone forgot about.

Mucky joins in the melee and declares an attack upon Saint_Kerrigan.


Saint_Kerrigan and Lavarinth go head to head with Mucky waiting in the wings but only chance will determine who attacks first.  At the last second, Saint_Kerrigan and Mucky both flinch giving Lavarinth first strike!

Lavarinth attacks Saint_Kerrigan and misses! (1-2 Class Penalty-2 Paranoia=-3 CRITICAL FUMBLE vs. 9-5 Paranoia=4) 20/20 HP
Saint_Kerrigan shoots Lavarinth and misses! (3+8-5=6 vs. 6-2=4) 20/20 HP
Saint_Kerrigan shoots Lavarinth for 6 damage! (2+8-5=5 vs. 1-2=-1 CRITICAL FUMBLE) 14/20 HP
Lavarinth attacks Saint_Kerrigan and misses! (4-2=2 vs. 12-5=7)
Saint_Kerrigan shoots Lavarinth for 9 damage! (10+8-5=13 vs. 6-2=4) 4/20 HP
Lavarinth sensing his imminent death tries to escape and succeeds! (12 SUPER CRITICAL RUN -2 = 10 vs. 7-5=2) 4/20 HP

Getting away to safety, Lavarinth believes he is safe until he is attacked by...THE THING!

The Thing attacks Lavarinth and misses! (3 vs. 7+1-2=6) 4/20 HP
Lavarinth attacks the Thing for 1 damage! (2-2+1=3 vs. 2) 29/30 HP
The Thing attacks Lavarinth for 4 damage and kills him! (11 vs. 8+1-2=7) 0/20 HP

Mucky shoots Saint_Kerrigan for 14 damage! (3+12-4=11 vs. 2-5=-3 CRITICAL FUMBLE) 6/20 HP
Mucky shoots Saint_Kerrigan for 18 damage! (8+12-4=16 vs. 3-5=-2) ?/20 HP
One of Mucky's dogs attacks Saint_Kerrigan for 7 damage! (5 vs. 3-5=-2) ?/20 HP
...You've got to be kidding me.

Saint_Kerrigan dodges the second attack.  (7-5=2 vs. 1-4=-3)
Saint_Kerrigan dodges the third attack.  (9-5=4 vs. 1-4=-3)

And just to test it, Saint_Kerrigan made his last saving throw too.  (7-5=2 vs. 1-4=-3)

A chilling wind cuts across the station as Lavarinth dies as it now means that there is no way to leave the science station by helicopter.  This is confirmed by the now familiar sound of another Thing cannibalizing the corpse of Thalraxal.

The survivors must now fight and kill the Thing which has claimed both the lives and identities of their friends to leave when the Antarctic sun finally rises again or die trying as the tenth day begins...

THE THING
Slain by Lavarinth

____

Here are the rolls and since I have no work this weekend, throw in your actions.  I'll even cut short my rebalance mod and  custom texture pack addon-fueled Morrowind addiction, guys.

[mAc Chaos]

Lavarinth was in stasis.  He can't get attacked until it wears off, DoW.

Lavarinth was in stasis.  He can't get attacked until it wears off, DoW.

Seriously.

[SaintKerrigan]

(Points fiendishly at Lavarinth's dead body, a wild smirk on his face.)

"Mwuahahahahaaa! I got you killed again, Lavarinth! It's a shame, really. I invited you to join my prestigious clan back on the first night, and you very ungraciously refused my invitation. How could you refuse the opportunity to rule the world, dear Lav? How could you? Now all you are is food for my other self."

(Turns to face Mucky. Extracts Thing DNA, drops it to the floor, and crushes it beneath a booted heel.)

"And now, my canine-loving friend, the time has come for me to finish what I've started!" (Aims pistol at Mucky's head.) "Prepare to die!"

Ferociously assault Mucky while cackling like a maniac!

"Hee hee!"

(Also, DoW, AA7 has a shotgun now, doesn't he?)

[WedgeAntilles]

The reign of Men has ended, the time of the THING has come.

Attack Mucky

[Mucky]

Lame. I thought I changed my action to attack Saint last turn.

Oh well. I suppose now is a better time than never...

Search for Bandolier.

[SaintKerrigan]

Guess we'll just have the battle today instead of yesterday, won't we?

[Lavarinth]

Oh.

Attack Saint Kerrigan.

Oh.

Attack Saint Kerrigan.

Oh.

Attack Saint Kerrigan.

Oh.

Attack Saint Kerrigan.

Fix it, DoW.

[DrumsofWar]

Don't worry, I won't do what Milldawg does and REWIND THE SUNDOWN BACK TO DAY, but I did fix the rolls.  Basically, Saint_Kerrigan pulled the craziest rolls ever and survived two different killshots by fleeing successfully.  (I may have to fix that rule even more than last game.)

Since he didn't get to fire back at Mucky, he technically has a clip left but Mucky has to feed his dogs this turn so he cannot search for ammunition until tomorrow.  HOWEVER, he can choose to either search for ammunition this turn letting his 3 remaining dogs die or feed his dogs for use for today's inevitable combats.

I won't spoil things but I will say that the game can go either way depending on everyone's choices.  Except Lavarinth, who is dead.  (Sorry.  You did catch my mistake so thanks, but you are still pushing up daisies.)

Thalraxal's corpse was also cannibalized by another Thing so please bear that in mind.
