OOC: A lot happened here so lets go through person by person.
Alyssa: You failed your idea check, so you do not suffer a temporary insanity and may act normally, howerever the longer term Amnesia has set in, as your mind took a weird twist. You don't recognize any of the people here, you don't know your name, but may act freely.
Norman, Passed all his tests, so may act normally. The .38 is fine.
Richard, failed his sanity test, but rolled for such a small loss that you suffer no ill affects and may act normally.
Eddie, You failed your sanity test and lost more than 5 points (though did not lose the 20%). Then passed your idea check so you suffer from Temporary Insanity. You are "Frozen in Fear" was the roll on my insanity dice. So you started to run towards Alyssa and when you saw the creature, you just stop dead in your tracks, about 20 feet away.
The Creature looks across the chamber, in particular looking at the large statue in the room as well as the engravings on the wall.
Then back at the 4 of you scattered around the room.
The dynamite goes off, but it sounds muffled and not very loud at all. The large Star Spawn in front of you, roars but you aren't sure if its from the explosion, or just the site of his next meal.
OOC: Those with weapons out may shoot, go ahead and shoot all of your shots.
Alyssa, you may act freely. While you don't know the people around you. You sure as hell don't like the creature just a couple feet away from you.
Eddie is frozen.

"Get away, get away!" Norman yells to Alyssa and Eddie.
He fires at the monster.

Eddie's jaw drops, and he stands motionless.
OOC,I thought we all had shotguns and Tommy guns. Handguns probably aren't going to be much use against this thing. Then again, shotguns and Thompsons might not be much better.

Ben,where is the statue and engravings on the wall described at in the story line?

OOC: I'm going to "change" the story a bit here. I made this change a couple months back, but I never said anything here.
There is the large statue in here everyone saw earlier. It is close to the East Wall. A large intricate circle is carved on the floor between the statue and the pit, with strange symbols in the circle.
The statue is pure granite, and appears to be carved out of 1 piece. It is 10 feet tall and around 5 foot square at the bottom.
Here is the big change. The statue stolen originally that you were supposed to be looking for (from 2 1/2 years ago, yea its been that long), is not here and you have not seen it. Sorry for the switchup, but I want to see where this might lead you.
There is also some writing on the wall. You didn't notice it before. Sorry, I've been expanding the module just a bit.
Richard,I'll leave it up to you if you are near the statue or not.
The writing on the wall, you seemed to have noticed before. Is carved deep into the stone. "Ep’hai Gof’nn Kadishtu’agl Ulnsll’ha
Cthulhu Na’fhtagn ep’Yarnog!!"
OOC: There is the English translation carved under it, not nearly as cleanly or deep, but I don't have it with me, I'll post it later when I get home. Sorry.

Also scratched into the wall, but not nearly as deep or clean. Under the previous engraving is this:
When the children are aligned and call to Him,
Cthulhu will awaken and His time will come.

OOC: did you specify when you picked it up what kind you have.
There are really only 4 types:
20 gauge double barrel
16 gauge double barrel
12 gauge double barrel
12 gauge pump
I'd think the 12 gauge's maybe too much for a woman, but I've seen strong women use them with no problem. So just tell me what you want to use.

OOC: She wouldn't have the heaviest one, is that the 12? Therefore the 16.

OOC,[b]Alyssa[/b] has STR 10, so she's strong enough to use a 12-gauge if she wants. My character in Watch the World Burn, Liz Penhaligon, uses a 12-gauge, and she's just a tiny thing. A 16-gauge shotgun at close range does 2d6+2 per barrel, so 4d6+4 with the impale. If you gave it both barrels (and why wouldn't you?), that's 8d6+8.
A 12-gauge does 4d6 at close range per barrel, so 8d6 with the impale. Both barrels would be a whopping 16d6 damage! We could really use that right about now!

OOC: Richard, both shots hit. Roll damage for the 2nd one also.
Due to the size of the creature everyone has a +25% chance to hit.

The Star Spawn screams in pain as the Shotgun rips a whole in his side. He looks down at Alyssa holding her now empty shotgun.
Tentacles from his face shoot out and smash at her.
Attacks,# of attacks: [dice]0[/dice]
Ouch, you really pissed him off.
Alyssa is blessed today. While the Spawn missed with the 1st attack, the 3rd, was ready to crush her but the 2nd attack got in the way of the rest of his attacks and he lost the rest of them.
Meanwhile he finished climbing out of the pit. And stands to his full height.
The pistol shots seem to have no affect on him at all.
OOC: Next round, You will all go first. So take all the shots you want. Please tell me how far from the creature you want to be. You can run up on him to get in point blank range to increase your chance to impale. Or back away to stay out of range of his attacks. Alyssa, you are only a couple feet away.

Norman's eyes widen as he sees the thing strike at Alyssa. Though the blows miss, there's no denying she's in extreme danger. And he cannot live with himself if she dies. After all, it was his fault he plan had failed to begin with.
He knows what he's about to do is suicidal, but is oddly at peace with it.
Running full speed he approaches the beast, hoping to direct its full attention upon him. He raises his gun...
"Ms. Ryan, grab Eddie and get back! I'll distract it!"
OOC: Unsure if I get a shot here as well; not that I suspect it will do much good. Just in case, though.
[dice]0[/dice] shot one(20%+20+25%= 65)
[dice]1[/dice] shot two.
[dice]2[/dice] damage from first shot
[dice]3[/dice] damage from second.

Richard puts the pistols away and pulls out the tommy gun against his best judgement as he knows pistols are his specialty.
He puts some distance between him and the creature in the direction of the statue and the writings thinking that maybe there could be a way to dispell the creature through the use of the statue and the writings.
Ben,Not sure if I get a shot with the Tommy gun here is a roll to hit just in case you need it [dice]0[/dice]
Just in case, though.
