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."

Trying to be stealthy with cracked ribs and a constant thirst for oxygen was pretty much a joke, but if Nate wanted to survive another day he would have to try his best. He stuck mainly to the shadows and attempted to use the routes that seemed to be the least populated when it came to the infected. Frankly he was beyond amazed when he made it into the tower with just a few near misses in between. Each day out here was spent wondering when you would die, he began to wonder when he would just accept that and move on. Hopefully never…

Climbing the stairs was like an untrained mountain climber attempting to clamber up the tallest mountain in the world or something insane like that. Every few steps he had to stop cling to the railing and breathe deep. Had there been any infected nearby he was certain he would have ended up giving away his position in less than a second. Luckily, whatever was watching over him seemed to continue doing so as he was able to reach the top of the tower and complete the first step of his objective.

Clutching his side he eyed the mess of communication lines and suddenly wished he had endeavored to become an engineer, at least that would have been useful in a situation like this. Instead he had to rely on dumb luck, or the lack thereof as the case may be. Taking a seat in a long abandoned chair he began to read over the labels that had been placed over each line in an attempt to secure a starting point. Eventually he just took to flipping switches until finally he began to hear voices on the other end.

"- 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 ----" But before he could get more the interference became too great and he lost the transmission. Seven days until what? What would happen after seven days? And what supplies were they talking about? Where were they being shipped to? It was unfortunate that such a risky mission had only ended up providing more questions than answers, but at least he had gotten something more than some stupid spare change. Following a long sigh he stood and headed toward the stairs. “Now to get back in one piece…”
