@SKIP the door began its quarantine procedure giving him a warning that once inside, it would not let him back out without captain approval or the timer initially coded into it ending. He'd have to agree before the door would open. Even then, he'd be stuck in the inner airlock for a few seconds while the door closed behind him and the next door opened in front of him.
@ED the kids shiver but take the blanket. Val starts rubbing their shoulders.
Val:
"What are you names, sweeties?"
Val asks the kids, suddenly showing her maternal side.
Boy:
"I'm Adamus."
Girl:
"I'm Evelyn."
They looked up at Ed and Val trying to get a read on them if they were a threat or not. Ed sensed in them fear and reluctance. Looking at their condition, he was surprised he didn't notice any injuries. He was also surprised that their skin appeared perfectly normal despite them shivering as if they were near death. In fact...he'd never seen anyone so healthy or pristine. Not a bruise, not a wart, not even a freckle. Their hairlines were perfect like they'd just had a haircut. Yet...they were behaving as if they were injured, cold, and sick. Something was off, but they seemed genuinely afraid.
@ED & SKIP Suddenly another empathy wave hit. Val was clearly radiating sadness for these kids. And more fear from the other crates...No wait. Anger. Something in the room was angry and radiating murderous intent. It was a lot louder than all the fear and sorrow. It was REALLY angry.
@OSRAM without warning the very crate Osram was thinking about burst open and a creature leaped out at him. A giant claw narrowly missing his head sliced into another nearby crate like butter, unleashing all the goop onto the floor. Before him stood some horrific monstrosity. It looked like some mix between a frog and a canine but with sharp fangs and long sharp claws. It has black skin and four red eyes, hissing and growling at him with murderous intent.
To make matters worse, the disgusting green and black liquid continued to sizzle as Osram now realizes that sound was acid. It was burning through the cryocube and now that stuff was spilling onto the floor.
SCENARIO:
- Osram is in Melee with The Creature, his path blocked by a stream of acid on the floor.
- Skip is waiting for the quarantine door to open.
- Everyone else in the room is huddled together about 15 feet away.
- You get 3 actions per round. Entering a melee is 1 action if you splash through the acid (1d6 acid) or 2 actions if you walk around, or try to jump past it (DC15 Acrobatics or Athletics, crit success: no damage, success: half, failure: normal, crit fail: automax)
