OOps thought I said it but did not. Firing at blue. Also, they could be immune to their own electricity. I will maintain my action.

Reconstructor's pulcaster shot does nothing, but his pistol hits once for some damage, Pratt's Shot misses

We have a ridiculous number of pistols from the Azlanti should you need to swap them out, I'm also switching to melee to try and break up their attacking if you want my pistol.

Man, I hate this fight, I'm sorry you guys are having such bad attack rolls

And Red goes down!

So, according to the book you don't level up to level three until after this final dungeon, but given how tough things are for everyone, I'm going to let everyone level up to three now, especially since no one is a frontliner.

Awesome. I'll work on this the next couple of nights.

"Captain," 287 broadcasts to Rook's comm unit as it seems to be tinkering on itself. "I believe I have completed constructing a program that will allow this unit to utilize rifles in combat."

"Well that was nasty. I need a moment,"

This enormous engine room did not fare well in the ship’s crash. Huge turbines are knocked askew, wires hang loose, and red warning lights flare around the room. Most of the room is covered in moss and creeping vines. An area at the eastern end of the room contains two doors. The north door appears intact while the east door is askew in its frame. What was once a door to the south is now nothing but charred slag, destroyed in an explosion that seems much more recent than the other damage to the room.

That thing you saw in the video is gone.

"It seems like the beat us to it. Let's head deeper in, there might still be Azlanti about with information."

Pratt steps into engineering past the bodies of the strange creatures he just fought. He can't help but wonder if there is anything they are missing here. Perhaps something hidden, or something that hints at the purpose of the machinery that is apparently missing from the room.

"Let's pause for a moment and poke around."

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
engineering: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

For certain a large piece of equipment was here, and was removed recently

It also looks as if there was a recent explosion, the slag from it hasn't accumulated any dust. You would guess that someone tried to bring power back online and it went poorly for the engine room.

"So now they have the artifact and Cedona!" says Xaun trying not to sound as alarmed as they feel.

"It seems that way, Xawn. It makes it all the more important to continue toward the front of this ship and see what, and who, is up there."

Scut moves into the nearby central hallway. "Why don't we check this northern room first, then continue to the south."

Moved my pawn.

Check N4, then N6?

"Panicking gets us nowhere, Xawn, this merely changes our course," Rook said calmly, placing a hand on Xawn's shoulder for a moment as he passed. He did not know how Xawn's people felt about his but most Vlaka preferred a meat-based diet.

"Affirmative Pratt Bivens, I will cover you."

You open the door to find that this section of the ship is entirely unlit. As light from your flashlights pour in, you see some sort of workspace or research area. There are two obviously dead humanoids slumped over the tables . . . but then they begin to move on their own!

"This place is really starting to give me a headache. I guess at least we're making new friends around every corner."

Pratt decides not to wait and see if this is the maitre d wanting to find a table for four. He aims and fires his rifle (at blue).

The two zombies stagger forward. They seem to take their sweet time doing so. They are staggered, they get a single move action this turn.

Rook tries to Shake the zombie, but whether because it is a zombie or his skills aren’t up to the test, his attack fails. Reconstructor would have hit but he he has to jerk his hand away at the last second to avoid hitting his friend in the doorway miss due to cover

Pratt is up

Blue: -4 damage
Red: undamaged

"It looks like they want to get up close and personal. What a wonderful odor they have, too! Is that some sort of Azlanti after-shave?"

Pratt backs up and fires (at blue)

to hit: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27
