Didn't @Gurren1 say he wanted to GM?
ζ-662221, Snakeman

Cinder's strike cleaved right through the Snakeman's Heavy Plasma rifle, containment system and all. As the myriad electromagnets holding the internal plasma engine in critical mass found themselves separated, the roiling inferno inside the weapon grew out of control and rapidly expanded outwards!

Instantaneously, Cinder and the Snakeman were engulfed in a sizzling corona of green plasma fire. Flesh and metal alike boiled away under the intense onslaught released from the Heavy Plasma rifle. When the cloud of vaporized matter settled, the Snakeman was nowhere to be found and it was likely that Cinder was in a very poor state.

Sindibad Darude, Human

"Get down!" Sindibad screamed, as Takahara's plan went into action. All of a sudden, the room had become a killing field! Throwing himself into a prone position, Sindibad narrowly avoided being caught in the Ginyu Force's cone of fire.

Hasse, Trandoshan

Being largely out of the Ginyus' field of fire, the Trandoshan freely took potshots at Kiba and Dlanor. With another eerily-cathartic PKREENG, he fired a less-than-lethal blue blaster bolt straight into Dlanor A. Knox's back. The hoop-shaped bolt juddered against her armor, shaking Dlanor's body with paradoxically-cold electricity.

Roidmude 96, Spider Roidemude

"Hey guuuuys, I finished transformiiiing!"
An octet of gigantic, dark-purple metal legs shot forward from the area where the Roidmude disappeared. With a blinding flash of light, the Roidmude reappeared, in the shape of a gigantic metal spider! The Roidmude took a short while to draw himself up to his full height, shaking his harsh, angular head-analog in relief.

Now... the Roidmude thought, who exactly was I supposed to be fighting again? Oh! There was that bright flash of green light next to Sixty-Six Twenty-Twenty-Two One! I'll bet that was a transformation!
"I'll GET YOU!" the Roidmude screamed, lancing a single pillar-sized leg into the concrete just inches from Cinder Fall's position.
I've got a vested interest in playing as Na'Vi. Count me in!
Roll result is 15: a very good score

Thanks to the light provided by the cavelights, hunting for treasure is a snap! As you follow a particularly-inviting trail of red light, you manage to snag some choice treasures!
  • Three full, edible-looking morels. Their caps are an earthy brown, and they are hard to the touch.
  • A handful of small metal discs, most likely ancient coins. Useless, though they clink together pleasantly.
  • A large, juicy beetle with an iridescent shell.
  • Two pouchfuls of unknown powder. It smells like sulphur.
  • A scintillating shard of glass. It is glowing red and is warm to the touch.
  • A blue gem worth five Rupees.
Boom has found...


Up ahead, it appears the red line branches off into three separate passages. One leading to the left feels uncomfortably moist, and you can hear the soft gurgling of water further beyond. The one in the center is fairly nondescript, though there is a large amount of unusual fungal growths coating the walls. The one to the right is unusually dark, even with the line's light shining along.
Which path do you choose? Multiple people can take different paths, and can roll to explore any path they want.
Task 1 Completed!

At last, the final hunk of encrusted fungus falls off, revealing the statue beneath. You feel rather disappointed, seeing your prize: a shabby-looking statue roughly-hewn from granite, holding a smoky, scuffed glass sphere engraved with a set of wavy symbols. The only spectacular thing about this "treasure" is the way it's humming!

Though the process of cleaning the statue was oddly cathartic, it didn't seem to do anything to help the fountain. It appears that the unveiling of the statue has done something, looking at the cave's interior. A harsh, angular series of glowing red lines has appeared on the cave floor, extending further into the cave's mouth. It seems you won't need a torch after all!

Task 4: Explore the Cave (Results Dependent on Score)

Now that the cave is illuminated, navigating it should be child's play! Add 10 to any roll based on exploring the cave.
Task 1 Partially Completed! (Difficulty 20-7 = 13

Chips of solid fungus fly off as Dingle's blades make their mark. Sure enough, most of the damage has been repaired! The faint glow of whatever lies beneath the fungus can be seen. Whatever's underneath is almost certainly worth something!

Your eyes turn to the chips of fungus spread across the ground. Though they are fuzzy with mold, they are as solid and dry as wood chips. You feel that this fungus will burn quite well and quite brightly. If nothing else, you now have fuel for a fire, or a torch.
Task 1 Partially Completed! (Difficulty 36-16= 20)

A splash of cool fountain water seemed to do just the trick! Despite the fungus's horrendous thickness, it sluices off like oil wherever the water hits! Though there is still plenty of fungus to go, it doesn't seem like as much of a Herculean task anymore.
Task 2 Completed!

With a very cathartic rushing gurgle, water flows freely into the fountain's basin, filling it up in seconds before slowing to a gentle halt. The sheer convenience of the water's motion is all the evidence you need to know that there is some magic left in this fountain.

The fountain now joyfully bubbles with cool, crisp, clear drinking water. Strangely, you can see both the bottom of the fountain and your own reflection perfectly in the water's surface. Now that you've got both shelter and clean water, this Fountain feels like the one safe place in the country other than the Fortress. There is still work that needs to be done, however!

This water looks astonishingly clean, all things considered. Maybe you can use it to clean the statues? (Double any roll for Task 1.)
Task 3 Completed!

With the boulder moved out of the way, you can see clearly into the cave. Now you have some shelter for when night falls. The faint trickling of water can be heard in the dark recesses of the cave. Maybe you can find whatever's dammed up the fountain in the cave?

Task 1 Complicated!

The blast of fungal dust sticks to the statue like thick sludge, obscuring the statue's innermost layers in a pâté of yeasty slime. Whoever tries to clean the statue now will have his work cut out for him.

Task 1: Restore the Statue (Difficulty Increased to 36)

Eugh! That damn Scrub just ruined the statue even further! You're gonna need to make multiple attempts to scrub this thing clean!

Task 2: Replenish the Fountain (Difficulty Decreased to 8)

Now that you see the other side of the fountain, figuring out what's blocking the water looks a bit easier. It still appears to be a toss-up between those fungal growths and those rocks blocking off the entrance.

Task 4: Explore the Cave (No Difficulty, results dependent on score)

It looks like this cave continues further in. Maybe you can find something useful in here? It'll be damn difficult to see anything without a torch, though!
I apologize for not being around for quite a while, I was off at a cousin's wedding in Georgia. Now that I'm back, I'm ready to begin!

@Xenonia, @clanjos, @Boomrocker, @Eklispe, @Professor_Wyvern, @Duthguy, who's present and ready to keep going?
