I forgot to roll one more dice for FlySpy
handling(1) (1d6.hits(5)=1)
still glitch :) just to make it correct

Body(1) (1d6.hits(5)=0)
Fly Spy takes 4P damage

Omar resists 2S
WILL(5)+BFF(5)+Natural hardening(2) (12d6.hits(5)=3)

Shit! Drone got knocked dow, well its still operable. There is a large pool of water down there, about half a meter deep. This Eye is closed, Ill need to repair it. Good that Mouse brought his one.
Hm...
I`ll move Dalmatian as far as possble, and use also this damaged drone at least as a retrans station for the signal, placing it here
Beaver has a winch integrated. Using the manipulator as a jib would be easy.

Hm..
then again
The question stays
How we get Beaver down?
I`ll need it to cary Dobermans to a dry place. They are built to withstand bad weather and heavy rain on patrolls, well, that doesnt make them submarines  :-\

"Thanks, my minon, I wouldn't have thought of fungi as liveform, but that's usefull intel.

"Watcher reported, no liveform expect some larger funguses down there. I'm not a botanist, but maybe toxic spores?" Lips put his one an his gasmask.. Before, he spoke to the group in general, now he addresses Omar directly. "I might be able to lift your metal dog down there by magic, Lips points at the doberman, if you can abseil me down, so I have a good view over the whole well.
Drawback, if we have to retreat or are finished the job, I might not have enough concentration left, to lift it up again and need some hours rest before I can take a try. Your drone, your call, Mr Omar."


Since from this point on, what ever troubled the first team, can wait behind every corner, Lips use the time, Omar make a desicion and prepare the Beaver to active one of his combat spells:

Increased Reflexes, Force 3 through Substain Focus: 7 hits .... only need 3, though
Drain: F/2 +2 Drain Resistance: 4 hits, 0 Stun Damage.

Dobermans we can transport down there by the crane. But Beaver itself is problem. Hell this is fucked up. I can risk it with dobermans, half a meter is not enought to fully  drown them, they got legs wet a bit but they should be able to ford...for some time. But the Beaver is usefull tool also. I hate to leave it here. Well, if there is no other option, I will. Its too heavy for you to lift it with your mojo?

Mojo? I'm not a simple voodoo doctor, thinks to himself, but stays polit, when he repeat: Hmm, half a ton of steal, plus maybe cargo and water, pressing it down ... Lips make some quick thaumartic calculations. Lifting that drone through the tunnel will probably make a little bit more of a headache than usuall. "I would estimate, I probably can to it, but there is still a risk. for the Beaver crashing down, hard. Specially the water makes it hard and will push it around the well.

And we have to consider that it is actually, Mr. Bobs maschine, not ours..."

OK that makes it. Beaver stays here. If we find obstacle we will need it for Ill think something out. Better get the gear up, genlemen, we are on our own?
Omar takes two oxygen bottles, and one of ropes over his shoulder. Gas mask on his neck, Omar thinks about putting his chemsuit on, well he decides that it should wait. Omar hates chemsuits. Fucking Full body condoms.
Someone better go first, Ill need to unhook drones down there. As soon as the D1 gets down, it would provide us with atmosphere informations, but its not a chem sniffer, so we got no chance to check for those possible toxic spores, Lips. Still, when I got a footage from the drone, Mouse can look for those shrooms at some wiki point, that would tell us more.

Also...not sure if that would be of any use, Omar runs wide radio frequency scan and looks for possible nodes within the reach. There may be tracet of comunication from the first team or whatever else should be down there, and since they had been much deeper now, maybe Omar would be in their comlinks signal range.

So who`s first?

"Second that, if we need Beaver, I can try my best. ... later ... if needed."

Lips, too, craps one oxycen bottle. Ready to go, first if needed. After all, I could levitate back here, in case trouble occur.

As Lips attach the hook of the winch to his climbing gear, Omar lifts him up, positions the Beaver`s manipulator above the hellhole and began to lower the amosu man down.
Please, Lips, take that FlySpy drone from water, before something worse happens, like doberman landing on it. :(

Throghout the discussion between Lips and Omar, Fractal observes the well they are going to descend in. He puts his tasers to rest back in their holsters, arrange the gas mask on his face (in doing this, he knows that the ultrasound emited by his throat will be muffled, so he will rely on the sound that the water falling down the hole makes and the tunnel structure to mantain his "vision") and fasten the bag he is carrying so that it stays more firmly attached to his body.

"I can go second, after Lips."

On returning back to the first well Sam puts a finger in the water, when nothing happens he takes a dive mapping the well  looking if there might be a second opening somewhere else, this he does mostly by Radar, no point on risking his life.

there might be some more actions depending on what is here

then he rejoins the team and they all walk for a while in the footsteps of the previous team, when coming to the ledge Sam activates his gecko gloves and prepares his climbing equipment. he looks at the wall, ...  wet, so much form my gecko  :( ... Better not Risk it, but any way he sets a foot on the ledge to try it out, how hard would it be, and slips the fall is immanent, he thinks of the harness, but it does not stop the falling ... So much for safety equipment ... Sam Loses no time and tries to use his equipment to stop the fall, and he does it just in time, he stops almost on the water surface.


goes trough Sam's mind as he Whirls in the air to prepare for a hard Landing in the water.

Screw up bad  ;D, 12S damage if sent is not making some modifiers, depending if Gymnastics skill addition to this roll include Agility it might decrease but for now I want to hear the modifiers and see if Sam uses edge to get back up re rolling the first climbing test.
Can we forget it ever happened? ::)


Quote
Characters who are using climbing gear may be saved by their safety equipment if they
fall. Make a test using the Climbing + Logic of the character who prepared the safety lines and
harness against a threshold equal to half the falling character’s Body (round down). Te falling
character may apply Edge to this test. If successful, the safety gear catches the character (though
she may be stuck dangling). If it fails, the character falls (Falling Damage, p. 164).

almost safely Lips descended below

the only difficult point was when he was driven directly under the pipe pumping water, but afterward he landed safely in the 50 cm deep water, picked up battered drone and moved out of the incoming people.

At the bottom, a different, more corrupted part of sewers awaits. The tunnel is wider than before, roughly 17m. As it seems it is not a room it is just much wider tunnel starting here. Two trolls could walk next to each other. In the center, a 3m wide stream flows from the waterfall. The water is about 15 cm after the initial half a meter deep. It is very turbulent near the waterfall.

The walls and ceiling are covered with mosses and fungi 10-20cm deep. Eggshaped, 30cm long fungus hang from the walls.  The moss is astrally active in many places.

Quote from: ooc
if any of you have anythign in common (knowledge skills, as I am to drunk to check) make a Logic + Parabotany (3) roll also as observed by Lips there is a background count of 1 on this level

even signal 5 of the erik's commlink isn't able to make a matrix connection directly down here. it can however connect to the Omar's link no problem. as for it turning off now for no apparent reason it has happened to Lips previously. He has a knack to break electronic devices.

EDIT: cleared singal issue

Putting his gas mask on, Omar let him down.

Water, so much water. His mask did help much, but still Lips had problems to breath. Body3 = 1 hit: 1 damage.

Right when he went through the hole into the big room, Lips immediately and levitate away from the water stream, so he can take a look of the surroundings first. Asking for another few meters rope, Lips locates the FlySpy and levitates it into his hands.

Leviate Force 1, no substaining: 6 and 4 hits
Drain: F/2 +1 = 1
Resist: 2 and 5, no damage

Addressing his watcher, holding the FlySpy infront of the magical creature: "Can you imagen someone depends on electronical watchers like that? Don't asnwer. Just be assured, your job will not be replaced easy by the eletronical progress.

What ever, please guard the entrance. If anything comes towards this room, other than from up there, warn me."


Then he realized himself from the robe and tell Omar to send the metal dog down. @team:You might want to use the oxygen mask for the trip down. Lots of water in the air.

Quote
Assuming Lips can not reach Omar through the commlink...

@team: "Hello? You still there? Helloooo?" Lips shack the commlink from Fractal and listen if water was inside. Pressing some buttons on the link which usually helps to solve those issues... 'Broken after not an houre, personally best time Lips.', he thought to himself. Almost cursing out loud, which he, of course, did not, Lips summon a second watcher: "Hallo Number two, I'm a bit in ahurry, so, please go up that well, up, up to the end until you find four metahumans. Show yourself infront of the most soulless one meta and deliver the following message, woudl you: 'Omar, I'm find ... args ... Lips is fine, I mean, the commlink is broken, water damage maybe, you can send done your drone ... and someone who can fix that ... whatsoever ... go now, delive the message and then come back to report his response, my minon. Rasch, rasch! [Move, move!]"

With that, Lips waited for either his watcher return or the doberman to come down the well. While he waits, he take a closer look at these funguses. They are magical plants, but he couldn't put the finger on it.

saving himself


Sam had slipped on the very first move. He tried climbing as a part of his training, but he really was amateur when it come to the real life risking climb. He did however remembered well, how to tie the knot. The harness hold, and after two seconds of  fall, that in his accelerated world were enough to think over his life twice, the rope swinged him hard on the wall. Still breathless, wet and a little dizzied he hung, catched the pipe that was sticking out of the wall here to stabilize himself 6 meters from the top of the well.

Quote from: ooc
you got 6P falling damage to resist with Body + HalfImpact + Gymnastic

Kour, I'd prefer you put the results of the roll in ooc quotes instead of the way you do so now. It's difficult to say at glance if you succeeded or no when browsing on mobile or tablet, as it require to open another tab in browser. thanks.

Sorry for a small delay ;)
