gaia_crown [ OBJECTIVE 2: ]

- Scavenge the office building for supplies
OOC: You will need to scavenge the local office building (STAPLES) for supplies. Any information you discover within the building can be used for later.

[ Step 1 ] Each player must roll 4d10 in their post. Match your dice to the rolls below. RP it out in ANY order.

1. Your character finds a stapler. It doesn't seem very useful. It is still attached to an arm, that has long begun it's final stages of decay. Attached to the bracelet of the arm is a name. "R O R...." the rest is missing.

2. Your character finds boxes and boxes of receipts. It doesn't look very informative.

3. Your character turns the corner and finds one of the undying! They must remain quiet for a bit to avoid being caught. If your character wishes to fight it instead for some reason, the undying has 50 HP and does -5 auto damage.

4. Your character finds a stray cat. It doesn't seem very friendly.

5. Your character notices a strange room. It seems to be locked.

6. Your character notices a foul smell coming from the copier room. You notice that the copier has stopped running, but there are pages and pages of images that surround it. Each one depicts someone being brutally stabbed. It is difficult to look at.

7. Your character notices some booze! Unfortunately it is empty

8. Your character manages to find some loose change. Not very handy.

9. Your character comes across a disgusting sight - a half-eaten body. The smell is repulsive and causes you to involuntarily gag. The half-eaten face's eyeballs are still looking at you, darting back and forth, moving.

10. You come across several rats all clustered together. You don't want to know why.

[ Step 2 ] After your character is done scavenging, simply report your findings to one of the bandits. Your work here is done.


Mission Bonus: +1 random drink item. Pick it up here after dropping off the form below.

Alex sighed as he held his ribs. In order for the apartments to gain an edge in the war on the undead, it seemed the harbringers would have many useful things. Weapons. He wanted weapons.

He wanted to feel a gun back in his hand, and to be able to defend himself from the undead easily. No more nets, or piddly items.

His gaze fell over to Brie and he rested a hand on her hair, as they entered the staples building.

Running errands and scavenging was nothing new to them, though when working for the harbingers and in this zone, it had her a little more edge than usual. Especially after their last encounter with undead.

As Alex rested his hand on her head, Brie lifted her chin slightly to cast him a look, making sure he was holding up okay. Entering the building, she gestured for them to move over to aisle ahead of them. Not being able to speak in fear she might actually shout what she intended to say, she instead tugged lightly on Alex's sleeve.

There were plenty of boxes and boxes of receipts, but nothing too informative.

He gave her a wide smile, laced with a wince of pain. Breathing was hard. He probably wouldn't make it far if he tried to run and that was a real damn shame. If he had a gun- Those thoughts would haunt him.

He let his hand fall to her shoulder now, even as she grabbed his sleeve and nodded. There was no point in attempting to talk to her, without her ability to hear at the moment...

Ever so quietly, he scoped the area. He almost didn't see the small figure dart out, but once it did, he rested his hand on his heart. The stray cat stopped, looked at him and then meowed loudly, hissing before darting off again.

too bad, Juliette probably would've love to know cats were alive!

The cat, which Alex had already spotted, was now making its way further back into the store. Hopefully it was safe in here. Trying to catch it would likely be a fight on its own. Instead, she just watched it scurry off.

As it disappeared around the shelves, Brie moved back to search alongside Alex.

Alex put an arm around Brie again, this time half using her as support and half to make sure nothing jumped out to scare either of them. He was pocketing little things here and there when he turned the corner.

A half eaten body laid before them, with wild eyes that were still moving and Alex, regardless of his injury, moved to block Brie's sight before she could see it. It was more like a really special hug but Brie had enough trouble with the zombies, she didn't need to see half dead bodies.

The smell was terrible and he gently led her away from the body.

Holding onto the arm her rested around her, in attempt to help him along, Brie too was picking up random items as they walked. Most were just useless objects, though having gone down one of the aisles, she was able to grab a small note pad and writing materials. At least now, if needed she could at least write a response rather than risk alerting everything close by is she decided to try and speak again.

Some loose change was found and tucked away, but it likely wasn't going to be of any use. The sudden 'hug' came unexpected, as she hadn't noticed the dead body, but her face flushed regardless. Unsure of what was happening, the smell soon gave her an inkling.

Allowing him to lead her away, she was thankful for avoiding the sight.

The moving away was a great idea but he was sure both the sight and the smell would haunt him in dreams later. He wondered, briefly, if he could just ask Dr. Sho to remove any of those like memories through whatever means the man possessed.

But if it was that easy, then they wouldn't be in the place they were. He grinned when he saw Brie's pocketed change and gestured towards vending machines or registers. Was money still important? He didn't think so. Good most likely were the currency of the realm.

He turned down another aisle, noticing a cluster of rats and guessing the reason why they were there wasn't hard. Animals had to eat too, and half eaten bodies were left for whoever claimed them. Animals or man. he rushed Brie along, cursing the place for its creepy and terrible setting.

In people's haste, they must have just dropped whatever they no longer had a need for. Loose change was in little demand, as she continued to find the store littered with the coins. At Alex's gesture towards the vending machines, she was now curious if it would actually still be in service. Then again, these things functioned on power, and there was none.

Suddenly being ushered along again, Brie figured he had spotted something else unpleasant and followed his lead.

It is suddenly pitch black. As you look towards the open window, all you see is a black mass, and then, a large red eye staring straight at you.

The eye blinks, the shadow pushes forward, and continues lumbering, everything in the store shaking violently as it moves.

Alex laughed as suddenly change jingled in Brie's pocket, and she was left with the extra metal coins. Another rat pile and Alex sighed. He didn't want...to see what they were eating at.

The sudden blackness startled him, and he took Brie's hand tightly in his, not losing the girl in the sudden darkness.

But he froze when he saw what followed, the bright red eye, floating? He held his breath, moving the other hand to cover Brie's mouth lightly. He didn't want too, but he wasn't sure if the girl would scream either.

"Don't move." He whispered as the eye focused on them...

It felt like a year, his heart was pounding, the ground was shaking, before the eye moved on. Lights returned. They were still in Staples.

"Let's get out of here." He whispered, moving slowly to the walls. Whatever that was...someone needed to know right away.

With everything going pitch black, Brie first thought that she may have gone blind all of a sudden from her previous injury, but then there it was.

A large red eye, and it was staring straight at them.

Moving to back away in a hurry, as if to escape its view, she nearly bumped into Alex. That he had managed to cover her mouth to silence her, was probably a wise choice, since it was likely she would have alerted anything within the building from screaming when the place began to shake.

Calming down just enough to respond with a nod, his suggestion to leave couldn't have come at a better time.
