Randall Breckenridge: oh my
Randall Breckenridge: the world looks kinda funky
Randall Breckenridge: I see green hieroglyphics on the walls...
TADM: Why is everything so green?
Randall Breckenridge: hey, was that the LT in a red dress?
Colwyn O'Reilly: what is Breck on?
Colwyn O'Reilly: do you have anymore?
Everyone follows the Lt. into the newly-created Drenski skylight (patent pending) and finds the lights flickering and casting ominous shadows throughout the top floor of the Hue Natural History museum. Dugan stays behind to "guard the helicopter."
Lt. Andrea Devine: Okay, everyone buddy up and check these nearby offices for people or things. Drenski, Hogpile, cover the stairwell at the end.
Randall Breckenridge: I think hes just a watchin the stars thru the rotor
Hogpile: Overwatch! To the left!
GM: Notice checks while searching the offices (marked "G" on the map.
Colwyn O'Reilly: Notice [1d8 = 2]
Tyran Drenski: Notice [1d6 = 7]
Randall Breckenridge: Notice {+2 Alertness} [1d6+2 = 4]
Randall Breckenridge: ah caint find the door
Randall Breckenridge: oh, Samson, move!
Lt. Andrea Devine: Colwyn's check the "men's room" - I'm going to look in the ladies room.
Colwyn O'Reilly: there don't appear to be any urinals
Lt. Andrea Devine: Whoops, okay, well, I'll check the men's room then, you check the women's room.
Colwyn O'Reilly: ah, that explains why the guy on the outside was wearing a kilt
Ranger Richard: Notice [1d8 = 2]
GM: A search of the offices and restrooms reveals nothing too out of the ordinary.
Lt. Andrea Devine: Hogpile, you, Mini-Samson, and Packmule move up to cover the stairwell, everyone else check the exhibit halls.
Tyran Drenski: Notice [1d8 = 7]
GM: Notice checks as you enter the exhibit halls.
Colwyn O'Reilly: Notice [1d6 = 11]
Colwyn and Tyran notice that the exhibit hall they just walked into is labeled, "Champa Empire Agricultural Exhibit."
Randall Breckenridge: Notice {+2 Alertness} [1d6+2 = 7]
Randall just walked into a room labeled, "Champa Empire Religious Practices."
Colwyn O'Reilly: Champa... huh... Tyran, maybe should show this to rocky
Tyran Drenski gets out rocky and activates him
Jade Golem: Nacko weepu!
Jade Golem shakes little jade spear angrily at the exhibit.
Colwyn notices some clay figurines that look like someone has been grafting jungle plants onto people.
Colwyn O'Reilly: like camoflage?
Tyran Drenski sets rocky on the ground
GM: No, it looks more like the plants are growing out of the people. But if Colwyn wants to think of it as REALLY good camouflage, then that is a possible interpretation.
Colwyn O'Reilly: that is exactly what colwyn thinks
Tyran Drenski: Neepo Wa Chu?
Randall finds a lot of knives that are stained red and look to be made of bones. There are some murals involving lots of animal sacrifices to blackened skulls.
Randall Breckenridge: ca-reepy
Ranger Richard: I have to restart I cant bring up my character sheet to do notice checks
TADM: Okay. See you soon.
Colwyn O'Reilly goes over to where Breck is
Tyran Drenski picks up rocky and follows Colwyn
Colwyn O'Reilly: huh
However, you see no humans or remains of humans in this area.
Tyran Drenski: what does rocky think of this room?
Jade Golem shakes his little jade spear angrily.
Randall Breckenridge: ah agree little guy, this jes dont look right
Lt. Andrea Devine: Okay, no one seems to be here, head down to the next floor.
Tyran Drenski: it's okay rocky, i won't let them take you
Randall Breckenridge: what was in your room LT
Colwyn O'Reilly: hmmm... interesting religious practices
Lt. Andrea Devine: Hogpile, cover the front door. Mini-Samson and Packmule, cover the stairs to the basement, everyone else buddy up and check the exhibit halls.
Ranger Richard [1d6 = 1]
Hogpile: Overwatch! To the right!
Hogpile is clearly channeling a Space-Marine Terminator tonight.
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): rraaargh! tasty space marines!
Lt. Andrea Devine: Some exhibits about the Champa military, nothing exciting.
Tyran Drenski: actually, I'd like to look in there
GM: Although you can make the assumption the Lt. is not being entirely honest there.
Tyran Drenski takes rocky into the other exhibit hall
Ranger Richard: Notice [1d8 = 3]
Colwyn O'Reilly: Notice [1d6 = 13]
Tyran Drenski: Notice [1d8 = 12]
This exhibit hall is filled with a number of displays and dioramas of the Champa military. You notice that the Champa military had a large "animal trainer" contingent in it, including lots of large gorillas, huge beetles, giant panthers, big lizards, tank sized Mosquitoes, and these things that look a bit like octopi.
GM: Well, more along the lines of "giant killer squid" than octopi.
Colwyn O'Reilly: huh. they had a very good imagination
Tyran Drenski gets out a checklist and marks off everything but the large squid
Tyran Drenski: what do you think of this area, Rocky?
Tyran Drenski: are there any little rockys around?
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): for some reason, stuff being typed is not showing up in the window
Randall Breckenridge: dhu, did the rotors finally stop turning?
Dugan jumps down through the Drenski Skylight (patent pending) and runs to join the rest of the group.
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): opens fire on the vorpal bunny wandering around in the creepy half light
Colwyn O'Reilly: oh, sorry, side effect of spooky red light mode
Dugan: wait up guys... my pants were caught on the zip line again!
Colwyn O'Reilly: we weren't using the zip line... oh nevermind
Dugan: Man it was tough finding a parking spot for the whoomp whoomp thingie
Dugan: The first spot I could find was in the outlying lot around back
The lights in the museum all turn on at once, causing an almost "noon-day sun" effect for a few brief seconds, then they go dark. The building is shrouded in darkness, no longer even operating in spooky red light mode.
Ranger Richard: yeah I can type again-hello world
Ranger Richard: must of had spell of silence cast over my character
Colwyn O'Reilly turns on helmet light
Dugan ditto
Randall Breckenridge: I thought they wus jest animals. How kin they know how to cut the power?!
Ranger Richard: brb have to put pizza in oven!
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): hey, that's what we're doing! yay pizza
Tyran Drenski: no more rockys in here?
Dhu (Dugan): eating ribs and typing doesn't line up to well
Everyone who thought to bring their helmet light can turn it on.
Dugan looks around
Tyran Drenski turns on his helmet light
Dugan turns on his helmet light. also finds a flashlight in his pack, but will save it for later
Dugan sees lots of toy soldiers and animal figurines lined up neatly like they are going to fight some other toy soldiers that look like Chinese soldiers.
Colwyn O'Reilly: hmmm... I think we'd better get a move on
Dugan: are they breathing?
GM: No, and none of them look like Tyran's little green man.
Dugan: did Tyran's little green man breathe?
GM: Technically, no
Lt. Andrea Devine walks back from the storage room and hands out flashlights to anyone who needs one.
Dugan: do I breathe?
Randall Breckenridge: thanks LT
Then she hands out some electrical tape so you can tape the flashlight to your gun and keep both hands free. Or tape it to your helmet, whichever takes your fancy.
Colwyn O'Reilly: ah! special forces tape
Randall Breckenridge tapes light to gun
Colwyn O'Reilly tapes the flashlight to his gun
Tyran Drenski secures flashlight to helmet.
Dugan ooo... tapes flashlight to trademark drum fed assault rifle
GM: Notice checks while walking through the exhibit halls.
Dugan: Notice [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 3]
Tyran Drenski: Notice [1d6 = 3]
Colwyn O'Reilly: Notice [1d8 = 15]

Ranger Richard: Notice [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 5]
Ranger Richard tape to gun
Dugan randomly points gun in different directions muttering, chpow...chk chk ... chpow!
Colwyn O'Reilly makes note to stand behind dugan
John (Randall Breckenridge): chakka chakow
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): brown chicka brown cow...
The exhibit halls contain a number of different exhibits about the Champa, chronicling their rise to power, followed by their sudden and abrupt disappearance from the world stage. There is an entire exhibit related to the stories of the surviving cultures and the notes they left about the Champa.
Tyran Drenski takes time to read some...it;s rocky family
One of them points out that, according to the Chinese, the Champa were a depraved culture of cannibals who consorted with demons.
Colwyn O'Reilly: very interesting. I would love to see this when there aren't thousands of VC running around
Colwyn O'Reilly: consequently, any mention of iskala?
Jade Golem pokes Drenski into the foot and points to his very distinctive looking Chinese armor and halt.
Jade Golem looks annoyed.
GM: With those stellar notices rolls - yes.
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): woot!
Tyran Drenski points at the armor
Dugan: iskala was an 18th century novelist who wrote the declaration of independence
Tyran Drenski: Neepo Wa Chu?
Dugan: it was a late century work which was all the rave, but amounted to nothing
Dugan: In the first chapter and verse, and I quote, "fore score and seventy-six years ago..."
[w] Tyran Drenski: any reaction from rocky?
Dugan: It ended with a twist, that caught the nation by surprise, "end the!"
Colwyn and Randall find a note in one of the exhibits mentioning that the Iskala were a group of government advisors. According to the lore of other cultures, the Iskala were assassins, priests, and the true power brokers of the Champa Empire. Evidently they were based mostly around the Plain of Jars in what is now Laos.
Colwyn O'Reilly facepalms
Colwyn O'Reilly: Lt... did you see this
Dhu (Dugan): oooo... so close!
Colwyn O'Reilly points to note
Colwyn O'Reilly: I remember hearing that before
[w] -> Tyran Drenski: Rocky seems to be on edge, like he is expecting All Hell to break loose any minute.
Lt. Andrea Devine comes over and reads the exhibit.
[w] Tyran Drenski: so I missed finding rocky's family:(
Dugan: the surprising twist?
[w] -> Tyran Drenski: No, these would be Rocky's enemies.
Tyran Drenski: Ma'am Rocky is acting very edgy we might want to be ready for an attack
Lt. Andrea Devine: Hmm....okay.
Colwyn O'Reilly: yes, that. In the bible. It's how the books of revelation ends.
Hogpile: Umm...not to alarm anyone, but there is ice forming on the steps to the basement, and I see fog coming this way.
Lt. Andrea Devine looks alarmed.
[w] Tyran Drenski: ahhhh :) I love talking to rocky...I feel special
Colwyn O'Reilly looks not alarmed
Hogpile wanted the opposite effect.
Dugan: good thing we're in this other room, safe as pie
Colwyn O'Reilly: they must have opened up the freezers for the patron snack bar
Tyran Drenski: Rocky Piko!
Dugan is hiding behind the medic, I think
Colwyn O'Reilly: Defensive positions, cover the stair well
Ranger Richard: anybody have aflamethrower
Lt. Andrea Devine: Hogpile cover the stair case. Mini-Samson and Packmule stay where you are and cover the entrance.
Randall Breckenridge: to the basement!
Tyran Drenski takes up a good fighting and aims at the stair case WELL
Colwyn O'Reilly goes prone by this nice doorway here
Lt. Andrea Devine: The rest of us head to the basement. Marine, you are up front, I'll be second, everyone else filter in behind.
Colwyn O'Reilly: damn
Tyran Drenski: Wish I did Richard then I could fight in close areas like this...I am usless at close range
Randall Breckenridge leads way down
Tyran Drenski follows with rocky on his shoulder
Colwyn O'Reilly: Let's all bunch up and run down the stairs higgedly-piggedly
Tyran Drenski: Notice [1d8 = 6]
As you walk down into the basement, the temperature drops. The sweat on your bodies becomes cold and there is ice on the railing and stairs as the water in the air freezes to metal objects.
GM: Including weapons.
Dugan: that reminds me of an age old tune, "put your rocky on my shoulder..."
Dugan: is there a heat pack inside of our mre's?
Randall Breckenridge: reminds me of that creepy jar field, only worse
Tyran Drenski: um, Ma'am there is ice on my grenades
The basement has a central exhibit hall (currently closed) and a walk way around them. There are murals and displays about the Champa on the walls.
Dugan: or hot sauce?
Colwyn O'Reilly didn't bring his cold weather gear
The doors slowly swing open, the fog in the central room is bluish.
Tyran Drenski: Me and Rocky don't like these Champa...
Dugan: what do you see up there Randall?
Dugan reloads
Randall Breckenridge: ah see dead people in blue fog?
Tyran Drenski: It is a octipus?
Tyran Drenski: Or that....hmmm
Tyran Drenski: French legions?? wish we had that werewolf with us
Dugan looks around, peering into the thick ooze
Dugan ponders the predicament that he's in
Tyran Drenski looks around for what to do next.....
Tyran Drenski: Notice [1d8 = 4]
Dugan thinks about his belly button
Dugan farts
Dugan: sorry
Ranger Richard: hmm maybe we should go back_why are we here again?
[w] Tyran Drenski -> Dugan: you play your charater so well!!!!!!
[w] Dugan -> Tyran Drenski: i get bored easily
Ranger Richard: this cant be good
As Randall enters the room, there is a crackle of electricity and the stairwell shimmers and seems to close on itself.
Colwyn O'Reilly: neat elevator
[w] Tyran Drenski -> Dugan: you should do the monster mash...
A low murmuring fills the hall. The room gets REALLY cold.
GM: Vigor checks.
Ranger Richard: Vigor [1d6 = 8]

Colwyn O'Reilly: Vigor [1d8 = 4]

Lt. Andrea Devine: Shoot anything that moves.
Colwyn O'Reilly puts on the cold weather gear that appears to be in his pack anyway
Dugan: Vigor [1d6 = 5]
Randall Breckenridge: dang cold
Tyran Drenski has enough padding he looks comfortable in the cold
Dugan does the moonwalk a few paces... to stretch
Tyran Drenski holds his weapon at the ready
Colwyn O'Reilly uses cover to look in the room
GM: The wall around the inner exhibit is solid.
Randall notices that the central foundation of the museum is broken away and a 12' square pit has been dug out.
Randall Breckenridge: whoa!
And then the spider-giant-squid thing crawls out of the pit.

Randall notices that this strange five foot tall pedestal seems to be a new addition to the museum. He also notices that the skull sitting on it seems to be very...fresh...like it belonged to one of the headless corpses Colwyn found outside the Museum.
Randall Breckenridge: ack! freash skulls!!!
Lt. Andrea Devine: Dugan come with me. And KILL FRED!
Dugan
[w] Colwyn O'Reilly -> Randall Breckenridge: knock the skull off the pedestal?

Dugan still running after the Lt
Dugan [1d6 = 3]
Tyran Drenski: So my theory is that there is can only be as many headless things as head threre.... we are up to 15
[w] -> Randall Breckenridge: It fires a cone template, so you are going to hit a huge chunk of zombies. Basically it works like a shotgun.
