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.

IC: 12: Time for New Plan

Post by BenTheRat »

As the 3 men get out of their car, Aunt Loosa smiles at them. "why howdy, Alyssa had this great idea to come talk to Christina about getting some more dynamite."

"Good thinking," says Eddie. "Let's see if they've got any cement too. With enough of that, we could fill in that pit and clog it up. We could also use some equipment to help us move that statue."

"Cement to fill the pit?" said Alyssa incredulously; "really?" She held up a stick of dynamite, "Found some more."

Christina looked at you. "I've seen the beast. I don't have near enough cement to fill in any cave big enough to hold that thing."

"Well, it was just a thought," says Eddie. "Is there anything here we can use to move that huge statue?"

"What huge statue are you talking about?" Christina asks
OOC statue,I've changed the statue you are hunting to a much smaller one that you move without equipment. There will still be the huge one in the chapel, but it won't be the one you are looking for. For this campaign, I think just dealing with the creature is fine.

"It was down by the beach. Several of us in town met it there, while others fled. It was horrifying, my pistol was useless. But we managed to hurt it, drove it back North. I came back to get more dynamite, but I'm almost out." Cristina says.

She takes a couple breaths to calm her nerves, she is still visibly shaking. "It was big, 20-30 foot tall. But it would shift, and change. Its arms were huge, but it didn't attack with its arms. It had tentacles that would stretch out and grab people and ..." She didn't cry but she put her hand to her mouth and closed her eyes, trying to block out whatever visions were now seared in her mind.

"If it bleeds, we can kill it." says Richard.

"Mr. Rahl is correct. While this monster is terrifying, I am confident together we can defeat it. We've already defeated that horrifying cult that plagued your town. Let us end this foul beast and restore Newport to the lovely community it no doubt was before all of this."

Aunt Loosa was shaking her head in agreement, "but we need a plan. I don't think going down in its pit, guns blazing is gonna work here."

"We've got to lure it out of the pit somehow, get it to come up after us," says Eddie. "Lowering someone down and then pulling them back up once we've got its attention might work, but that would be awfully dangerous."

"That does sound dangerous, what else could we use?" Aunt Loosa says.

"Maybe a dead body," suggests Eddie. "If all this thing wants is food, that should whet its appetite just as well, but we can find a body that doesn't look that dead just in case it likes live prey. We might even stuff the body's pockets with dynamite to blast the creature if it takes the bait."

"Hmmmm." Alyssa said, a touch nervously: "There's a butcher shop. If it's bait we're after..."

"Even better!" says Eddie. "Any meat should work, and I'd feel a lot better not using someone's remains."
