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.

"Oh no! it's coming from the pit. Ready chaps." Alyssa scrambled to her feet.

Barely had the words come from Alyssa's lips when the chain pulled tight causing the crank spin wildly.
Norman,make a dodge check (with a +20% chance, since Alyssa yelled out) as the crank handle spins wildly. If you fail suffer 1d3 points
Norman falls away from the handle until the chain reaches its end. Then everyone can hear slurping and crunching noises coming up out of the pit.

Though he stumbles back, Norman manages to right himself before falling. He turns towards the others, panic on his face.

"Light the dynamite and drop it all in," says Eddie. "If that doesn't do it, we'll follow up with the guns. Not your fault, Norman. This may work out better."

Richard shakes his head fearfull that the stick wont find its mark or that the monster will retreat back into the tunnel to be sheltered from most of the blast, it would have been better to wait till the monster started to climb up the pit so he couldnt escape qiuckly from the blast.

OOC,I'd light and drop one in if I had one. If [b]Richard[/b] won't and he allows me to do it, I'll take his and use it.

OOC:   So here is where I'm at.
1. You lowered the meat down tied to the chain. 3 of you backed up, guns ready.
2. The monster grabbed the chain and pulled it to its max length.
3. Norman managed to jump out of the way of the fast spinning wench.
4. Eddie said throw in the dynamite.
5. Alyssa lit and threw her dynamite down the hole. While expressing her greeting to the unknown.
6. Richard thinks you should save the dynamite, he doesn't think it will do much.
7. Eddie didn't actually do anything, since he put it as ooc.
8. Alyssa alluded to her thoughts. - I'll add a response, you don't really know what it is like down there, no one has gone down.

Let me know if anyone is going to do anything else before I move the story along.

"I'll do it if you won't," says Eddie, reaching for Richard's stick of dynamite. If Richard allows him to take it, he lights it and drops it in the pit.

Richard steps back from Eddie preventing him from taking the stick of dynamite he has "Slow down Eddie, take a deep breath and stay calm, lets see what if anything the 1 stick Alyssa threw did" as he then starts to walk over towards the pit with his pistols out and ready for a peek down into it. He listens carefully for any movement or noise coming out of the pit before looking down over the edge and into the pit.

As Richard begins to walk towards the pit, the stick Alyssa threw in goes off. A loud bang has smoke and bits of something fly up out of the pit.
Everyone hears a roar from down in the pit.
OOC:   Alyssa, please roll damage. ;) 5d6, thanks

Richard takes a step back after he heres the roar and then tosses his stick to Alyssa "Ok sounds like you are a pretty good shot, make the whick short so we can get it climbing up so it cant escape the blast"

Norman also takes a step back.

"Quick, throw more dynamite! We don't want it to flee and have to chase after it!"
