IC: 12: Time for New Plan

August 1921, Boston.
A dead guard at the abandoned chapel, a stolen statue revealing strange numbers and a burnt postcard. A strange night sighting by a Harvard professor only 2 days later has led to too many coincidences to ignore.
Dr. Chambers is forming another MAPS team, and you have been called.

You light the dynamite and throw it down into the pit...
Alyssa ONLY,you see it drop about 20 feet and hit the face of the creature coming up out of the pit. It's Dark Green skin and yellow eyes bore into your soul. Tentacles from his face and sharp claws are what he is using to climb up out of the pit. You see the stick roll off to the side and fall, blotted out by the enourmous body in front of you. You open your mouth, but nothing comes out. OOC: Please make a Sanity test 1d6/1d20

Sanity [dice]0[/dice]

Loss [dice]1[/dice]

Current SAN is 52, 20% of that is 10.4, Alyssa is driven indefinitely insane.

1d6 applied to table [dice]2[/dice] Amnesia.

Alyssa looked around the cave and at the others, she seemed confused, all of her anger had gone and she was quite lost and frightened.

Alyssa,The Amnesia shouldn't come on like that, its supposed to slowly come on you. But I'm good with this. For now you do know there are a bunch of strangers pointing guns at you, and there is a huge monster in the pit below you. You may still act, but you may think these people are wanting you to jump in the pit. I'll let you role-play it from here, but you aren't helpless. You may still act.

Eddie hurries forward to pull Alyssa away from the pit and out of danger.

OOC:   Everyone please post what you are doing.  
Everyone sees Alyssa throw in the stick of dynamite and a look of terror cross her face, she turns to look your way, you see confusion and terror.

Eddie begins to run towards Alyssa.

Richard calms his nerves and prepares himself for what he knows will be a shocking grotest creature from the beyond and points his pistol towards the top of the pit waiting for the creature to appear above the edge of the pit.

Alyssa held up her arms, astounded by her dirty, damp and ragged clothing and by the shotgun she held.

"What's going on?" she said to Eddie.
OOC:   Did the 2nd stick explode and did it do any damage?

OOC:   Sorry for the delay.  
Norman also raises his gun, ready to shoot the thing as soon as he sees it emerge from the pit.

OOC:   No worries, my fault also. Alyssa also needs to take her idea test to avoid the immediate temporary insanity. But I don't think it will affect what is going to happen next, so I'll move forward.

Richard and Norman level their guns at the pit, while Eddie runs towards Alyssa standing on the edge.

Another explosion erupts from below the pit opening, but nothing flies out this time.
OOC:   Alyssa, please roll 5d6 again.  
The creature pulls itself half way out of the pit, terror grips your hearts as even though it is only half way out of the pit, it towers over Alyssa and Eddie.

Image

The tentacles from the creatures head stretch down towards Eddie and Alyssa.
OOC:   Everyone make a sanity 1d6/1d12 test.

Spoiler:
[dice]0[/dice] San test passed

[dice]1[/dice] if fail

[dice]2[/dice] if pass
Norman lets out an audible gasp, but for some reason the thought of protecting his friends takes precedence over the terror in front of him, and he remains mostly unaffected.

Hand shaking, he aims his gun and prepares to fire as many times as he can
OOC:   How many shots does Norman get per round?

Ben,I don't really remember the gun. Can it be a. 38 automatic? That has 6 bullets, fires two shots per round, and does 1d10 damage. IIRC I had Norman grab two spare clips for a total of 18 bullets.
