He really wished he'd gotten a chance to look at the schematics for the ship before they arrived like Tevini had. This thing was lost on him. Sighing, he looked back to the group. "I don't know anythin' about this... Engrav?" Hopefully the yellowblood would have an idea of how to deal with this.

Engrav attempts to disarm the trap!
This door looked like a pretty simple variation on the same trap he'd seen on the last time. Shouldn't be that much of an issue. His wirecutters came back out, and he made another small snip. The trap let off a loud zap as soon as he broke the circuit, and the hallway was suddenly bathed in stark red light. "Um." The yellowblood said under his breath. "That's probably fine."

Caiden was lost in his thoughts, maybe in order to ignore the outside world, maybe it because his thoughts were just that interesting. As scientists discover and study new species of butterflies and moths, distinctions between the two is becoming blurred. Some moths may fool you into thinking that they are butterflies. Autumn was pretty sneaky, that was probably it.
This is a mini-boss battle, the full rules and mechanics of which can be reviewed here. The room beyond the door seems empty from the hallway, but stepping inside you are swiftly aware that you are not alone! For lurking in the corner is a dark groaning shape. As it turns towards you, you realize you are entering strife! You have encountered a ...

If this is your first mini-boss fight look below:

If this is your second mini-boss fight, you have reached the control room! Roll 1d4 and look in the spoiler below:
1 - Powering on the ship is easy enough, with the instructions from headquarters in your ear. The screens show that the ship is functioning perfectly, and headquarters patches in the control of a remote helmsman. They wait until you have returned to your boarding pod and leave, before steering the ship away.* 2 - Powering on the ship is easy enough, with the instructions from headquarters in your ear. As the screens boot up however, dozens of red warnings and errors flash across the screen. It seems like there has been critical damage to the ship in multiple places. Your team is instructed to leave the small black boxes containing deadly explosives in key positions on your return path to the exit. 3- The ship refuses to power on, even after you follow headquarters instructions to make sure they are plugged in, and hitting ctrl-alt-del. It looks like something core is not functioning. Your team is instructed to leave the small black boxes containing deadly explosives in key positions on your return path to the exit. 4- Powering on the ship is easy enough, with the instructions from headquarters in your ear. The screens show that the ship is functioning perfectly, and headquarters patches in the control of a remote helmsman. They wait until you have returned to your boarding pod and leave, before steering the boarding vessel away.* If any troll in the party has helmsman authority, they can steer the ship to given coordinates, then return to the boarding vessel with the rest of the team. Congratulations! You have completed your mission and returned back to the docking area! Squad commanders, be sure to report in!
Oh no. Engrav already knew what this thing was. More mutated space gerbils. He'd already fought something like this once, but this time he was surprised by the beast's absurd speed. He could feel the heat from the laser grid singe the ends of his clothes as he was jumped on by hundreds of gerbils. Engrav did his best to slap them away from his vest, hearing the tiny snaps on diminutive bones as the rodent's bodies broke.

Oh god. This might be worse than the slime. "Oh, what the ********> He hoped the gerbil he took off the last ship wouldn't turn into one of these. He began slamming his mace down onto the tiny bodies that were charging at the group. Despite his best efforts, many of them were able to jump onto him and begin biting. "Fffuuuuck this s**t!"

You know, it was actually really good that Caiden knew so much about moths and butterflies. See its not true that if you touch a butterfly’s wing and the ‘powder’ rubs off that the butterfly will not be able to fly. The powder is actually tiny scales and a butterfly sheds these ‘scales’ throughout its lifetime. The same was mostly for moths. So, although he made sure not to touch Autumn's wings, it was still not exactly life threatening.

Another boss!? This better be the last one! After the zombies and the last mini boss, they were all a bit... wounded. Eilidh was ready to use her power if needed. There was NO way she'd let any of her party member fall! One by one, each of them hit the creature... knocking it's health down. Though Eilidh took 4 damage, she dealt the creature 7 in return. She sighed with relief as the monster fell. "....Please tell me that is all..."
This looked pretty simple. Throttle here. Thrusters here. Retro-rockets in the rear. A very large button labeled "Auxiliary power." Engrav pushed that button, and enjoyed the loud hum of the ship's engines powering up. Mission accomplished.
The group pushed back to the escape pod without any further indecent, the remote pilot buzzing in the ears of the assembled trolls.
