Oof, unlucky.

Regardless, the thing that attacked Jon spends its turn plummeting downward with rather grievous injuries. It's not dead, but only because it hasn't hit the ceiling yet.

The swarm of weird things - A susurration of noise can be heard above the gentle hiss of the dust, the carcass of the giant thing that Lex shot down has been busy getting devoured and disgorging clouds of golf ball sized beetle things. They tumble lazily through the air, frequently crashing into each other or the ground. They seem to have no clear aim, but they're moving inexorably toward the downed squad members.

The closest body is Jon, not much beyond that is Alvrin. Jon is bloodied and unconscious, Alvrin is still twitching fitfully as the strange creatures breath racks him. Lex is roughly equidistant from the bodies.

Joose, you're up again.

I've made a huge mistake.

I can't help but think this is a bit of a tangent from the original elf-hunt

Eventually we'll be back to that...

I had totally forgotten why we were there in the first place!

Save us Joose!

Now that I have been poisoned I can only think of that show-inside-the-game from Max Payne 2, Lords and Ladies, with the last "episode..."

uuh, uuuh, uuuh, I dunno!

I'm not really made for shooting clouds of bugs! Im going to dash over to Alvrin, try and pull him out of the toxic cloud. We still in bullet tiem?

Post by **HereComesPete** » February 12th, 2010, 0:42

Yes to bullet time. The distance is such that if you have one pass left you can move one, if you have two you can move one and get to the other but not move them.

As you drag Alvrin clear of the area he unfreezes, seemingly with no ill effect other than a few sore joints and bit of nausea.

Swarm of bugs waggle dances lazily toward Jon. Om nom nom.

Joose, do you have a third pass? I can't remember!

Jon, if he were concious wrote:Ay ay ayyyyyy

It is a little known fact about Jon Krinkle that in times of great stress he goes a little bit Mexican

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, my head. What the shit is going on?

Anything look like it would be damaged by my katana blade?

Post by **HereComesPete** » February 12th, 2010, 13:38

All of the little weeny bugs are eminently squashable, but there's a hell of a lot of them.

Post by **Dog Pants** » February 12th, 2010, 14:00

You need a lawnmower.

Post by **deject** » February 12th, 2010, 14:13

Well considering I was just incapacitated by said swarm, I think it's better to avoid further contact if possible.

Post by **fabyak** » February 12th, 2010, 15:30

You were got by the breath of the monster rather than the bugs I think. However if you don't they're going to make a salad out of me
