Well when T is mobile again we should move through the doors before something else shows up. While waiting for T Lum will take the healing from M.

The doors are ajar and someone should notice that they were magnetic doors that are open.

Yeah, but let's get healed up before anyone gets too close to that door..

Can someone search this room, see if there is anything useful in here, or tell what this place is that we fell into?

How about an Engineering roll for Lum to see if he remembers anything about this kind of security doors, building structure and what they usually were used to protect.


Did you tell me about "Guardian"? I see it on the character sheet but don't remember if you told me how to use it. I'm guessing when Lum takes a "Guardian" stance to protect someone it is in affect. But do I have to state something to that effect in my post?

Rhyson has already been posted as searching the room.

While I don't think we want to go through the doors until people are healed, I do think we want to put someone near them ASAP - including a peak through the gap. If the doors are ajar there doesn't seem to be much chance that something on the other side wouldn't have seen or heard the sounds and sights of combat. But we do want to be prepared in case someone is approaching - there is no reason to let someone peak through the door at us.

I assume that you are using any skills you have that do not consume points. So in the combat, Tomiki was using his pinpoint attack and pierce armour skills. Lum used his Guardian skills which is why he could take so much damage and keep going.

I will post what is in the room and the spider bodies soon.

So should we destroy the eggs? If we fish them out of the hot goo and the cool off that should kill them. Are these egg s worth anything?

Yes the eggs should be destroyed, but if I recall correctly, these things are made not born. So this is a new problem.

I thought of it more that they were genetically altered but not each being created. So breeding can happen and that lack of war to supply lots of food would keep the numbers down.

But now from Alacrity's post there didn't seem to be a way for them to be in this space without being placed here.

In any case what are the thought on how to destroy them? Any spell of cold available? Any way to cut the wall so the "spit" leaks out to the floor?

Did we check the messenger pouch? Need to do that, either they are messengers or they ate the messenger.

We could chop off some bug legs and use them to scoop out the eggs. They are long and resist the heat. Once out of the "Spit" they should cool quickly and kill the thing inside. Seeing that they are rare they must be valuable as collector items at the least.

As for the doors to open, Lum and T can try to pull them open enough to get through. Do we want Lum want to be like Luke and mess with the panel?

Maybe need to roll an Engineering check here to see if Lum can find and open the access panel to the other door controls once we are through.

Does the team want a roll to see if the Big Green guy can rewire it to open?

Lum seems to be the only party member with Engineering, but of low Int he doesn't get a bonus to his roll.

Is there anything M has that might help Lum remember, so it would add bonus to his roll? Maybe working together our combined rolls would have bonus. Maybe R has something.

Could be writing in the panel that would help so each checking would help. Team work!!

Hmm.. I had thought created, but maybe the GM can clarify for us?

He did say that we couldn't see all the upper parts of the chamber, so they could have come in up there somewhere.

No cold spells, nothing magical that I think I have that could cool anything down. I like the bug leg to dig out the eggs and let them cool. You would think they have to stay hot to incubate, makes sense.

Well someone will check the pack, whomever wants to can. I think they ate the messenger.

I think we can examine those doors closer and make a determination after we find out what's there. We might need a couple mins to rest and handle the eggs and the messenger bag before we start opening the doors.

Firebugs were created to not bred. So yes, this is different.

You can not see a way in/out for the FB on the level you are on currently. However, you might find something if you were to climb and search.

The eggs will die if cooled. Value as an item? Possible but what would they use it for? You got breeding killing machines here - do you want them in anyone's hands?

So how big are he eggs?

Taking one for proof of breeding might be important.

I should have a post up later tonight. She will suggest that we destroy the foul eggs using the leg of the creature as mentioned. I forgot who brought that up, but I will give them credit in my post.

She will yell for Tomiki to STOP! When she sees him pulling his swords to strike them. I see bad consequences for that method, splashed by the lava like goo, or even damage to his swords.

Three more questions for the DM:

1. Did we notice anything on the way down the stairs that might have been another entrance? Was most of the climb down done in darkness so we wouldn't be able to see? Was the stairwell, too big to see across? Are we talking about climbing the sides of this room, but not the stairwell?
2. Are the walls rough enough that climbing seems reasonably possible?
3. Rhyson looked around the room in his previous post. Am I right that he found nothing? (Beyond the eggs)

Ok I got some info from Alacrity in a PM so I edited my post accordingly. Please go back and read as it may change your individual posts also.

Do we need to say "make a knowledge check" on the brand or do you do so automatically? Please make such a check.
