Predator Quest: Episode 27

You are Three-Claw, a Yautja hunter of the Cloud Viper clan. You have been tasked by your clan Matriarch to investigate breaches of forbidden knowledge by clan Weyland on the planet Fey'lenn, or Pandora, as it is known in the human tongue.

_________________________

You are slowly sinking through the dark mire. Your arms are outstretched, and you try your best to remain still. The more you move, the faster you'll sink.

The oxygen meter in your mask's rebreather slowly ticks down. You do your best to conserve the oxygen. Hopelessness grips your chest, and for the first time since battle, you begin to feel every inch of bruise and broken bone on your shoulders and back.

Suddenly, the faint cacophony of combat above intensifies. The muted thumps of Burning-Scythe's plasma shots are joined by a second, louder noise - the distinct buzzing of a large gatlng cannon.

The entire mire shakes and quakes as the beast above you roars and struggles in pain. The gatling cannon's distinctive buzz intensifies, and does not stop. You feel the thick liquid around you vibrate with each crescendo.

And then, you feel it. The beast is sinking. You're not certain whether it's dying or fleeing, but it's slowly submerging itself. You feel one of its tentacles brush against your left arm.

Do you:

A. Attempt to grapple on to it (DC: Easy)
B. Attempt to lodge your spear into the writing mass. (DC: Medium)

>>B. Attempt to lodge your spear into the writing mass. (Pass, DC 12)

Realizing this is your only chance to escape your murky coffin, you are suddenly overcome by a surge of desperate strength.

You raise your spear and stab into the writing tentacles. It penetrates. You drag yourself towards the beast along the length of your spear. The tentacle reflexively coils from the pain, and you hang on with all your strength as it drags you through the mire.

As you come closer to the beast's body, you realize it's heavily injured. Hundreds, perhaps thousands of holes pockmark its thick hide, and portions of its flesh have been completely shredded by your ship's gatling cannon.

You dislodge your spear from its tentacle and push yourself towards its main body. Your hands find purchase on its wounds, and with all your strength, you begin to climb the sinking beast towards the surface.

You look up. You are perhaps only half a meter from breaking the surface, but the beast is sinking fast. You must think quickly!

Do you:

A. Take a mighty leap upwards. [DC: Easy]
B. Try to recover your speargun and shoot a tether upwards. [DC: Medium]

>>B. Try to recover your speargun and shoot a tether upwards. [Critical Success]

Realizing this is your last chance to cling to life, you desperately clamber towards the silhouette of Sharp-Strike's combi-stick.

You grip the shaft with your right hand and pull yourself up. You fumble in the half-darkness until you feel the distinct shape of your speargun, still clutched tight within the beast's tentacle. You tug and pull with all your strength, but you cannot seem to free it from its grip.

The gun is solidly tangled up by the tentacle, and the tentacle is nailed hard to the beast's body.

Desperately, you thumb the switch to attach the tether and push hard against the tentacle until the gun points upwards. You press the trigger and hope for the best.

You track its motion with your mask and watch as it breaks the murky surface. It continues sailing upwards, and miraculously, manages to latch on to your ship.

"PULL UP!" You shout into your visor.

The beast beneath you begins to tremble. The murky liquid quakes and shakes. You feel yourself slowly rising. Suddenly, light fills your visor and the murky ichor slides off your body. You look down, and realize you're riding a dying leviathan into the air.

Do you:

A. Ask Sharp-Strike to dump you and the beast on dry land.
B. Work on cutting the tentacle loose and drop the beast back into the marsh.

>>25231512
>>A. Ask Sharp-Strike to dump you and the beast on dry land.

You instruct Sharp-Strike to maneuver the ship towards solid ground. He obeys, and drags the massive beast towards shore.

Once over solid ground, you flick the switch on the speargun to cut the tether and both you and the beast drop to the ground.

You half roll half stumble from the slimy corpse sit down beside it, exhausted.

Burning-Scythe limps over and sits down next to you. He points to his left arm, dangling uselessly. "Broke my arm," he tells you.

You point to both your shoulders and the back of your head. "Broke my shoulders. Maybe fractured my skull. Not sure."

Sharp-Strike sets your ship down some distance away and runs over to you.

"It's massive!" He exclaims, as he examines the corpse.

Do you:

A. Tell Sharp-Strike to make sure it's dead.
B. Assure Sharp-Strike it's really dead and tell him to extract your weapons.

Kill two birds with one stone: tell him to cut a trophy from it.
>>
>>25231628
I'm pretty sure he should make sure it's dead BEFORE he goes near it.
>>
>>25231593
We told them about the fis.

Thank god our ship has a proper med bay.
>>
>>25231612
>A. "Please, extract a trophy in the most painful way you can imagine. If it is not dead, we'll know soon enough. *Yautja profanity*ing Fis."

Assuming it isn't considered dishonorable to have the same action kill something and extract a trophy, do this.
>>
>>25231640
Don't approach it from the bitey side, then.
>>
>>25231613
>>A. Tell Sharp-Strike to make sure it's dead.

"Might still be alive," you tell him, and throw him your combi-stick. "Make sure it's really dead."

Sharp-Strike takes your comb-stick, takes a few steps back, and charge forward. He drives the spear tip through one the holes made by the gatling cannon until it's hilt-deep.

He depresses the trigger and detonates a heated plasma explosion within. The beast trembles slightly, but show no more sign of movement.

"Can't really consider it a fair kill; put up a hell of a fight, though." Burning-Scythe tells you.

You turn your head and peer at the fleshy blob.

Do you:

A. Have Sharp-Strike pry a few teeth from its maw as a souvenir after he's done pulling out your gear.
B. Have Sharp-Strike just extract your weapons and leave it alone.

>>25231678
C. I wouldn't begrudge him taking one, though; let any who doubt whether it is deserved take one look at Three-Claw and Burning-Scythe, and then at the freshly blooded hunter who saved their lives.

Someday, we're going to have an aquarium in our trophy hall, with a live Fis in it.

Oh god, I'm so happy right now. I just found this quest again (after the terrible happenings of last night) and I can't believe that shitty situation turned out so good for us.

>>25231678
>> C. Have Sharp-Strike decide.

You turn to Sharp-Strike. "Well, you're the one that killed it. It'd be up to you on whether you want to take a souvenir, " you tell him.

The young hunter hesitates for a moment, and thinks about it for a while. "Well, it's the ship, mostly. Can I... Can I take a few teeth and hang it from the cockpit? Not as a trophy; decoration, I think. "

"Go ahead," you tell him.

Burning-Scythe stands up and points to his arm. "I'm going to get this taken care of."

You feel your shoulders and lower back flare in pain.

Do you:

A. Spend 24 hours in the surgical bay until you make a full recovery.
B. Spend half an hour and get yourself patched up.

>>25231763
Well we need some time in the medbay but at least we are alive.

>The surgical bay can either treat your wounds fully via regenerative gels etc, or triage them and not heal them completely. I.E. splint broken bones, set dislocated shoulders, patch up wounds etc.

That wasn't the question, though; can it tell us *what* our injuries are? No matter how serious this mission is, spinal injuries are not to be trifled with, but broken bones and ribs and even a cracked skull we can cope with.

>>25231818

You follow Burning-Scythe into the ship's medbay and lay down in one of the surgical pods.

The machine hums to life and begins to scan your body.

"Wonder what's jamming our comms," he mutters, as the surgical pod begins to splint his arm.

"Something underground, perhaps. Something we can't see," you respond.

"Yet - the distress signal got through."

You are silent for a moment, and think about the implications. "Perhaps it's stronger. We did have trouble pinning it down," you tell him.

"Yes, or perhaps it's a trap, meant to lure us here. Anyway, where to next? Once we're in better shape, that is."

You answeR:

A. "We should continue exploring this island and pin down the source of the distress signal.
B. "We need to link up with Steel-Arrow first. Find out what's jamming our signal.
>>
>>25231898
A giant blob with a mouth and several long tentacles. It's now riddled with holes.
>>
>>25231940
It's only jamming long-range comms, not short-range comms. I'm inclined to believe that a trap placed specifically *here* would block short-range comms too.

Given that:

>>25231940

We've had our "fun", such as it was. Lets locate our objective and get the hell out of dodge.

"Let's keep searching. Ashen-Blade's ship has GOT to be on this island."

"Right. Better get on with the triage, then."

The surgical pod beeps as it finishes its initial diagnoses. The result shows two broken shoulders, two fractures long the rear ribcage, and a minor concussion.

You ask it to triage your wounds. The pod whirrs, the lid closes, and a cloud of anasthesia begins to fill your surroundings.

You fall into a light slumber.

You awake less than an hour later. You gingerly step out of the pod. Your entire back still aches, but it no longer flares with sharp pain as it did before.

You find Burning-Scythe gearing himself up in the armory. You take your disc back and clip it to your waist. Sharp-Strike joins you a moment later.

"I was patrolling, " he tells you. "Found more Na'vi corposes to the north. There seems to be an underground tunnel there - looks to be natural.

"Right then. Let's go."

Do you:

A. Continue exploring the metallic bridge and the swamp.
B. Press north and explore the tunnel.

Dayum, that's one hell of a tether gun.

Oh and don't forget to get our disk back.

Seems likely that Ashen-Blade sought shelter, and a natural cave does seem likely.

On the way north, ask Burning-Scythe what killed the Na'vi he found. Does it look like Yautja, or Fis, or something...worse?

>>B. Press north and explore the tunnel.

You slot your war gear and prepare to diesmbark.

"A tunnel? Let's find out. I'm not too keen to fight another one of those," you tell him. "Lead the way."

The three of you exit the ship and head north. As you proceed further, you begin to see more and more Na'vi corpses, as Sharp-Strike said.

Burning-Scythe bends over and examines a few.

"Plasma wound to the chest. Decapitation by disc. What's this?" He peers closer. "Looks like slugs to the heart. Killed by human weapons," he tells you.

You see the mouth of the tunnel loom before you. It looks to be the entrance to an underground cave system. You peer inside and scan the formation with your mask.

It seems to be constructed out of some foreign alloy unknown to you.

You step inside. The tunnel splits into three passages.

Several Na'vi corpses line the entrance to the left.

You feel a strong draft coming from the middle shaft.

The right shaft seems to turn sharply downwards after a few meters.

Do you:

A. Take the left
B. Take the middle
C. Take the right.
D. Suggest you three split up to cover more ground.
>>
>>25232544
A, corpses indicate activity and we can't risk splitting up in our wounded state.

I know that left is the way with the activty, but I'm curious what the wind draft is. Perhaps it could be a fallback escape point. Either way, I'm curious and would like to check it out before we go left and figure out what's left all those bodies.

>"Plasma wound to the chest. Decapitation by disc. What's this?" He peers closer. "Looks like slugs to the heart. Killed by human weapons," he tells you.
I wonder if the reason Steel Arrow came here was to show humans what Weyland was doing here. That would explain why he came here and seems to have humans fighting on his side.

On a side note, if we place a laser mine down in proximity mode, can we have it send a signal when it detects something instead of exploding? I don't want something to sneak up behind us, but collapsing the tunnel would be bad.

C, right.
Take us deeper!

>>25232591
>>25232579

You examine a few of the corpses leaning against the left passage wall. Two seems to have died by plasma, while the other two were riddled by rifled slugs.

>>25232582
Not constructed in a literal sense - composed would be a better word. There's n evidence these passages are artificial.

NO, STOP. NO.

How interesting.

Are the Na'vi corpses kitted out with Weyland auxiliary gear, or are they tribals?
>>
>>25232627
hahahah..AHAHAHAHAHA...oh god ....hahaha...ha..HA...HAHAHAHA...ahahahahahahaha...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...oh man **WHEEZE** hahahaha...no..no that is when we break out the true yautja weaponry because that will not be a hunt...that will be a matter of survival not just for our species but every species

I think fis would be less deadly if it's genetic purity was tampered with. Fis strong, xenofis loses too much (but gains an awesome frill/crown/hat)

xenofis loses? ummm nooo fis gains acid blood and the swarm...xeno gains size strength and amphibious capability...ON A SIDE NOTE! OP how does it feel to have your creation (fis) be the stuff of nightmares to fa/tg/uys everywhere?

we gundam wing now?

I do wonder if OP expected Fis to be memetic when he first wrote it up.

>>A. Take the left passage.

You lead your team down the left passage. As you progrees, you see several more corpses litter the passage.

The passage narrows as you go further, and soon, the three of youa are forced into single file. You come to a sharp turn.

Suddenly, you hear something. It seems to be machinery of some sort. You signal your party to halt.

You hear the slow rumble of an engine and the clanging of moving gears.

Do you:

A. Have your team wait and scout forward by yourself.
B. Ready your weapons and proceed cautiously, as a team.

XENOFIS STRONK

I really doubt exnofis would even die from anything short of big explosions.
So it wouldn't even become exnomorph fis.
>>
>>25232725
>B. Ready your weapons and proceed cautiously, as a team.

Let's not be stupid.
>>
>>25232725
A, scouting is our specialty.
>>
>>25232725
A

We've got the super sensor-spoofing stealth suit. Lets do some forward recon.
>>
>>25232725
A)
Injured or not, we're still a good scout.
>>
>>25232750

Looks like A wins.

Write up inc.
>>
>>25232721
I wonder if fis was even written or simply a good DM improv as to our ending up in/near water
>>
>>25232733
I apologize I have not slept in quite some time and as a result I became somewhat derpy regards to grammar. Slapped myself upside the head and remembered that I need to give a shit.(especially on /tg/)
>>
>>25232737
Well that is the bitch about xenos no? it does not really matter how stronk you are when something is eating it's way out of your fiscage.
>>
>>25232773
>>A. Scout ahead.

You signal your companions to wait, while you creep forward stealthily.

You turn the bend and find the passage grow more and more constricting. Soon, you're forced into a crawl as the ceiling suddenly slopes downwards.

The passage eventually leads to a large cavern containing the source of the noise. You drop down silently. There's a large shaft in the center of the cavern, which houses a lift.

It extends deep down into the depths. Beside it, a generator turns a set of gears, which power the lift. Beside it, you see the corpse of a human. This one died from having his throat slit.

Do you:

A. Explore around the cavern for other passages.
B. Take some time to peer into the shaft and see if you can spot anything.
C. Call your teammates over.

This is not looking good.

Let's get our friends over here first.
C.
>>
>>25232824
>>25232839
Yeah C.
>>
>>25232839
I will agree with this, there is apparently another stealth fighter here, so we should warn them about that as soon as we can.
>>
>>25232855

C seems to be ahead.

Write-up incoming.
>>
>>25232839
I concur, C for me
>>
>>25232857
Ashen-Blade or United States Colonial Devgru?
>>
>>25232878
While possible, we cannot know for certain. It could be anything, so we must be prepared.
>>
>>C. Call your teammates over.

You signal over your comms and bid your teammates to join you.

A few moments later, Burning-Scythe and Sharp-Strike drop from the passage to stand by you in the cavern.

You point to the shaft and the body. "What do you make of this?" You ask.

Burning-Scythe examines the corpse and its wound. "Blood's dried up. Must be dead for a few days now. Wound is too messy. This wasn't done with a Yautja blade.

He then walks over to the generator and probes it for a moment. "Most likely an excavation lift. Doesn't look like it sees regular usage."

Do you:

A. Call the lift up.
B. Climb down the shaft
C. Look around the cavern for other passages.
>>
I'm beginning to think that Machiko is going to make an appearance
>>
>>25232942
>A. Call the lift up.
any activity around it is long gone, may as well be fast about this
>>
>>25232942
B. Let's see what waits below. This is more stealthy than calling the lift, which could alert anyone to our presence here.
>>
>>25232959
who?
>>
>>25232998
http://avp.wikia.com/wiki/Machiko_Noguchi

human female who hunted with the Yatuja, protagonist in a series of the AVP novels and comics

Never assume you're the only one poking around the suspicious underground facility.
>>
>>25232942

we still have climbing gloves don't we?

that would be cool, was entertaining reading about her interactions with the Yautja and how different their cultures are, not sure if the timelines would match up but thats hand waived easily enough
>>
>>25233056
>>B

"Follow me down," you tell them, as you activate your climbing gloves and slowly make your way down the sheer cliff.

Burning-Scythe follows you, using his wrist blades to find purchase along the concrete shaft. Sharp-Strike uses a combination of his spear and his boots to gain traction, and descends last.

The three of you make your descent carefully. At last, you come to the bottom, where the lift currently rests. A set of metallic sliding doors bar your way. Behind you is a vent to an air passage.

Do you:

A. Pry open the doors
B. Crawl into the vent.
>>
>>25233107
B of course
>>
>>25233107
>vents

Now would be a great time for some innovative Yautja scientist to make us a sweet little recon drone (and with the missions we're going on, its not like it would detract honour or glory from the hunt)

>>25233107
B
>>
>>25233174
>>B. Vent
You cut the vent cover loose with your claws and hoist yourself in.

Your companions follow behind you. You crawl forward quietly, occasionally peering through vent openings along the way.

It appears you're in some sort of underground Weyland facility, and the passage of a few heavily armed guards lead you to believe it must be military in nature.

You come across one of the storage rooms and hear a scraping noise coming from within. You halt, and slowly peer outwards.

You see the storage doors open, and the body of an armed guard is thrown inside. Thick lines around his neck indicate he was strangled.

Your restricted line of vision did not reveal to you the killer.
