Thorson acknowledged the other soldiers with a nod and walked a little closer to them , unslinging the gun section of the thrower and checking the nozzles and hoses instinctively as he walked. He peered at the mass a little closer, "what the hell is that you're looking at a plant or something?"

[Mr. Handy]

"I'm not sure what the hell it is," says Dalton, "but it's no plant. That thing survived a whole bunch of grenades, and bullets don't seem to do a thing to it."

[kabukiman]

-Just finish it, ok?- says the officer- it killed two of our men.

[Airbornexo]

With an expert hand, Thorson lets a couple of test-puffs of flame out of the nozzle. Then in a controlled burst hoses a long tongue of flame over the thing in the corner...

OOC - success, made roll by 7. What's the damage of a flamethrower?

[Mr. Handy]

OOC,The rulebook says 2d6+shock.

[kabukiman]

OOC: roll a 2d6. Shoggots don't get a shock, but it's nasty for them anyway...

[Airbornexo]

OOC - 2d6=7 :/

[kabukiman]

-TEKELILI! TEKELILI!
Sudenly the mass makes that strange noise, and it starts moving, in your direction. Somehow you know it's furious with you.

OOC: What do you do? Dodge or continue hiting it?

[Airbornexo]

Gritting his teeth Thorson's instinctive reaction is to fire again.

[Mr. Handy]

"Hit it with everything we've got!" calls Dalton.

OOC,Do I have one of the remaining grenades? If so, I'll throw it at the shoggoth. If not, I'll just shoot at it with my rifle. Is it close enough to us for point blank bonus?

[Airbornexo]

Thorson grits his his teeth so hard together at the sight of the enraged creature that he nearly cracks a tooth. However he somehow manages to keep his cool and plays fire out of the weapon in his shaking hand again. His aim isn't true this time and the gouts of flame splash the cavern wall missing the incomprehensible mass...

[Mr. Handy]

OOC,That might still hit. If it's within your DEX (10) in feet, the point blank bonus applies, doubling your effective skill. Even if it's not that close, you get a bonus to hit very large targets. For every full 10 points of SIZ above 30 it is, you get +5 to your effective skill. This means that as long as it's SIZ 70 or larger, you still hit, and the average SIZ of a shoggoth is 84.

[kabukiman]

OOC: You hit it, because it's great mass AND you are very close. Throwing grenades is dangerous, but you can try.

You finally see it. A mass of bubbles with eyes and mouths screaming "Tekelili! Tekelili!". It's doesn't belong to this world, it's a nitghmare from some madmen dream.
OOC2: please roll san.

[Airbornexo]

OOC - damage for the hit 2d6=5 and San fail 1d100=82 uh-oh!

[Mr. Handy]

Not wanting to risk a grenade with the creature so close to Thorson, Dalton trains his rifle on the thing and puts a bullet in it - for all the good it might do.

[kabukiman]

When you think that the thing will hit you, it say a last "Tekelili" and stops. Dead (was it really alive?).
OOC: Roll a 1d6/1d20 for sanity loss.

[Airbornexo]

OOC - yow! San loss- 1d20=13

[kabukiman]

Fire. You get fascinated with fire. Things burning are pretty. The flames dancing... how didn't you see it before? That's why you have come to this job. To burn things.

The cave is now in silence. But at least there is ligth, with the thing burning. The fire is something sane.

OOC: The scenario is also finished. I will write an ending in some days. I hope you all enjoyed, thank you for you patience and sorry for any mistakes.
