I'm good with that

I'll have a post up by tonight sometime.

Alacrity,

A couple of roll checks.
Does Lum recognize the location symbols on the map? The mountains, the castle, the crater?

Also the meaning of the spiders and the eight armed guy?

Then how about a roll to find a light switch for the room?


To the party,
I might guess that the flashing red light is a warning that the power is down because the outer door is not secure. So we may need to secure the outer door to activate the panels and the inner door.

Al,
Is that something Lum's engineering background might recognize? Does this need a roll?

I will be looking at moving things forward this week.

Was looking for info on questions above to help with my post.

I've already said what my character is doing; just waiting to find out the result.

Ody - Lum and the rest of the party could not recognize the symbols on the map. You will need to take it to Dwan or someone who knows the Rust Wastes well.

Is the generator something we can carry easily? Or something we could carry back, but would significantly hinder us as we move forward?

Well if it was an emergency generator then it was designed to power things when the regular power failed, like now. If it is fueled by water then it should be plumbed and just need started, as long as there is water. If there is water it should be gravity fed to flow when pumps are down. It should have a starter to begin the reaction...like a crank and button.

So make a roll Roger and let me know if Lum find something like this. You can send it in PM if you want.

Sorry I did not say the size of the generator is about the size of a portable vacuum cleaner.

I assume you have water on you in the form of canteens or skins.

Ody - your assumption on the working of the generator are correct. You can try both methods to open the door but the generator will take longer to get going so you could try battery then generator.

I've been fighting a bit of writer's block again lately. Been able to ask question and ponder ideas, but the story part just wasn't coming.

Sorry if I've slowed things a bit,...but maybe it is coming to an end.

The image here is more of a "guide" to what it looks like as I could not find anything that truly matched my vision. Unlike this image, the ceiling is higher and the corridor is wider - 20 feet across.

I'll try and get my post up later today or tonight.

I believe everyone will be examining the equipment we pass for anything valuable; it is the reason we're here after all.

Lum and Tomiko will work on the door to keep it open and then Lum will disconnect the generator to take with him.

A portable generator might be handy.

There appear to be plenty of panels with switches, are we checking each and trying the switches?

M should keep ahead of Lum to read the panels because Lum would be turning things on.

Sorry just got so busy today that I wasn't able to work on my post. Will try tomorrow.
