Shoot the Limbs- A Dead Space RPG- Chapter 2: The Surface

[Sosakitty]

John accepts the pistol. He throws the door open and opens fire. He realizes that he has just wasted his bullets on a wall. "Whatever it was, it's gone now." John walks out into the hallway. All of the vents in the hallway pop open and grotesque monsters jump out of all of them. More come out of the server room. "It's a trap!"

 

[zacaron]

Ilundra pulls john back into the room and shuts the door.
"were safe for now." she said to john.
after a few minutes of thought she comes up with a plan.
"put on your helmet." she said
"were doing for a space walk."

 

[Sosakitty]

"You've gotta be kidding me." John says. "Okay, well the nearest airlock is down the hall. How are we supposed to get there, genius?"

OOC: This is getting kinda silly. If we don't get any new characters in one week, I'm gonna shut it down.

 

[zacaron]

"I dont know." she said
"we could try and fight."

 

[Sosakitty]

"We have a couple of pistols to fight with. We probably won't get very far." John pokes his head out and sees that the hallway is once again empty. "Looks like another trap. If we run fast enough we could make it."

 

[zacaron]

"sounds good to me I will grab my rifle."

 

[Sosakitty]

John quickly downloads the codes to open the airlock. He dons a helmet and grabs a pistol. He throws open the door, and runs at top speed.

 

[zacaron]

quickly following john out of the door and down the hall they reach the airlocks Ilundra turns around and fires a clip of bullets into the beasts following them.
she then turns and gets into the airlock with john.
"close it. NOW!" she said to john

 

[Sosakitty]

John punches a code into the keypad. The door closes with a hiss. They're in a small cylindrical room that has another door leading outside. "You ready for this?" John asks as he punches in another code to open the outer lock.

[zacaron]

OOC: ryoukojima gratz on first post.

steping out of the airlock Ilundra looks around and finds another airlock a hundred yards down the hull and she decides to set out for that one.

 

[Sosakitty]

John follows behind Ilundra. He realizes that they cannot talk in space. Ilundra begins reaching for an airlock. He follows close behind.

OOC: Shut-down countdown reactivated. If we don't get 2 more characters in this RPG before Christmas, it's kaput.

 

[Ryoukojima]

William stood directly in front of the medical bay wondering why he had not been relieved yet. He decides to ask what was going on. Walking into the medical bay he sees the doctors have been slaughtered. There was some kind of creature in the middle of the room. William takes aim at its head. "Hey you turn around slowly," he says. It spins to face him at incredible speed. William switches aim to its knee and fires once, removing its leg which hardly phases it. It continues to crawl at William who holsters his weapon and draws a seven inch knife. He proceeds to run at it hack its limbs of until it dies. He thought about going to the bridge but how would he do it. He thought for a little bit and decided to use the air lock.

 

[zacaron]

Ilundra reached the airlock and opening the doors came face to face with one of the beasts it made what would appear to be a low gutteral noise (no sound in space)and before ilundra could draw her rifle the monster had ripped open her suit and was dragging her into the ship. she turned to john and mouthed the word "run" before she was choking and spitting blood into her helmet then the creature dragged her back into the ship and the doors automaticly closed behind it.

 

[Sosakitty]

OOC: Is Ilundra dead?

What happened to Ilundra? John wonders as he gets closer to the airlock. He pokes his head around the corner just in time to see his companion being dragged through the airlock. "Shit." John mutters, though only he hears himself. He goes up to the airlock and begins typing in a code on a keypad. It doesn't open. "I forgot the code?" John says in disbelief. He begins typing in whatever he can think of. This is gonna take a while.

Appearance: Brown hair, Cut on his right cheek
Description: As a simple merchant, Allen did quite well with the whole idea of interstellar mining. Now a well off merchant on metals and goods he was flying with the Ishimura when all hell broke loose. Finding that most crew are infected told him to run and find a place to bunker down. By an unlucky chance he finds a room with a Necromorph on the other side...

"Ok this room looks clear." Allen moves across an abandoned area of the supplies room. A roar sounds and sirens start blaring signifying Quarantine Mode. "Oh crap, wait..." Allen looks closer at the creature and discovers that the necromorph is trapped in a closet. "Hmm someone must have realised that this poor fella was changing well the good part is that he's stuck and not getting out." Outside the supplies room Allen hears in the distant airlocks being opened but he isn't sure after running. "Well lets see what we can find here..."

 

[zacaron]

Ilundra looking around found herself slumped against a wall the monster was over at the airlock trying to get to john. she looked down at herself and found the cause of her pain. a large gash in her stomach with internal bleeding. she knew she would need first aid soon.
Through a red haze of pain and blood she saw dents appearing in the airlock and knew she needed to do something.
through the pain in her mind she came up with a plan.
she raised her rifle and shot the creature but missed and ended up taking off one of its limbs. she fired it again hitting one of the legs and knocking it to the ground.
Using the final shot in the clip the hit it between the eyes killing it.
Thou the effort nealy caused her to faint she got up and opened the airlock for john.
Before slipping into the blackness of unconscious she told john "aim for the limbs, Dis...mem..ber ... them." with that she went unconscius and slumped to the floor.

 

[Sosakitty]

"Hey, don't you die on me! Don't you die on me!" John shouts repeatedly. The extreme wounds will prove fatal in a few moments without medical attention. He runs down the hall and throws open a red wall unit marked First Aid. He throws it open and takes the package back down the hall. He tears open the packet and takes two needles out. One is marked Morphine and the other is marked Stem. He rams the former into Ilundra's neck. Finished with that, he throws the needle aside and injects the contents of the Stem needle directly into the stomach wound. It immediately begins to seal. John looks on and thinks about how it may be too late. You can only go so far with stem cells. "Come on, hang in there."

Occupation: USAF Cyber Engineering Technical Analyst
Specialty: Medic, Heavy Weapons
Appearance: Wears full-body tactical Armour, equipped with a HUD air-filter system helmet, a basic medi-pack and carries a 2 hour back-up oxygen supply.

After being patched up, he was assigned to take this ship back to the outer colonies to continue his service but during the journey, the ship was infected.

Awakening to the sound of shouting, Chris slowly opened his eyes. He was still dazed from being knocked unconscious by the storage containers. His HUD display dimly lit up, displaying his vitals and oxygen levels. Suddenly, there a message on his HUD popped up, "Warning Vital Systems Critical!" "Crap!" Chris muttered to himself. With the help of a nearby weapons container, Chris managed to stand-up. Doing a quick, scene analysis, his HUD system identified 1 corpse and 2 life-forms. Drawing his service weapon Chris shouted, "Hey! USAF, Identify yourselves!"
