gaia_crown [ OBJECTIVE 3: ]

- Try to make communications with the outside world
OOC: Try to make communications with the outside world. There is a RADIO CONTROL station set up. Unfortunately, masses of the infected wander around it. You need to sneak around the masses undetected to try to get to the top of the radio tower to work it.

[ Step 1 ] Radio tower detection is determined by how much your character is carrying.

A player character NOTHING in their (minis) inventory rolls 1d4. A victory is a 1-3

A player carrying 1 item in their minis inventory rolls 1d6. A victory is a 1-4

A player carrying 2+ items in their minis inventory rolls 1d10. A victory is a 1-5

If you roll a FAIL, the mobs of infected notice you, and begin to chase you. GAME OVER (this task is a FAIL). Otherwise, continue forward.

[ Step 2 ]

You reach the top of the radio tower. Now, you see why this is an issue. At the top of the stairs is a room, and it is filled with hundreds of different communications lines. You would have to try each one to see if it works. It would take hours, days, if not months.

Roll 1d100. Match your dice roll to the result below an RP it out. You may keep on rolling until you are satisfied with your result, and then you may leave at any point.

1- 20: You get static on your line. It didn't work.

21 - 40: You get what sounds like someone talking on the line but it is difficult to make out.

41 - 60: You hear something. Someone shouting "Hello? This is-." It gets cut off.

61 - 80: You hear something. It comes loud and clear. "This is prerecorded emergency broadcast. If you are listening to this, you are in critical danger. Find the nearest shelter immediately and hide until further authorities notify you. Do not attempt to contact local authorities. Do not leave your house. This is not a drill."

81-90: You hear something. "- supplies shipped in daily. We try to do it from the air but we don't have many choppers left. They will dwindle after a while. --- seven days --- then ----" It cuts off.

91-100: You hear something. "-- you don't know me but I'm here to help you. Don't listen to anything they tell you. They have it wrong. -- Listen closely. -- undying are not the problem. The thorns are. They cannot be destroyed. Avoid them -- contagious -- do not touch. -- spread. That's how the virus replicates. -- too late for you. They will not let you leave."

Kelly's heart hammered as she rushed down the road, jumping at every noise, movement, and shuffle around her. She was not the type to do covert-operations, and so she nearly screamed when she saw a mob around the corner. Scrambling back into the alley, she let them past and tried to not cry at the thought of almost being caught, and what her fate would be thereafter.

When everything became silent once more, Kelly peeked out and ran at a dead sprint to the tower, shutting the door behind her and listening to the silence. Moving up the steps, she saw the large wall of wires and groaned aloud.

"Well, guess I'll blindly attempt..."

Grabbing a random wire and turning it on, she listened and soon heard the warning on the radio before Day Zero, a repeating message announcing caution in the wake of the disaster.

Flipping another switch, Kelly listened closely for a long moment.

"-- you don't know me but I'm here to help you. Don't listen to anything they tell you. They have it wrong. -- Listen closely. -- undying are not the problem. The thorns are. They cannot be destroyed. Avoid them -- contagious -- do not touch. -- spread. That's how the virus replicates. -- too late for you. They will not let you leave."

Her mouth slowly dropped as her heart raced. All at once, she tried to remember if she saw any thorns while she was exploring. Had she brushed against any? Did she get too close? Was there one in the room right now? Pushing away quickly from the radio tower, she cut the line and rushed down the steps, all but running out the door and back toward the university.

Someone needed to know this, and they needed to know now.
