EVENT: HERE THERE BE MONSTERS

[initiatesnpc]

Date & Time: October 24 - October 31
Location: Throughout Exsilium
Characters: ALL; tag yourselves in
Summary: The Transports return from their mission to find the island crawling with monsters.
Warnings: Violence, possibly injuries (notify a mod if there's cause to add a particular warning!)

The Transports return from their mission to Medieval Russia, but the Initiative Hold is eerily deserted. Normally, their would be a number of Initiative personnel prepared to meet the Transports at the end of their mission for debriefing.

Instead, there is only silence.

That is, until a distant thumping sound can be heard. It is growing closer, and suddenly the beast is bursting into the room. It lets out a roar and charges. Within minutes, it is easily defeated, but damage has already been done -- it collided with the Transporter machine, which is now making a low fizzling sound and lets off a couple sparks. The commotion is enough to draw the attention of the few remaining Initiative personnel who still inhabit the Hold, who arrive immediately afterwards. They are able to tell the Transports two things: that the machine is broken and currently unable to sent anyone back in time, and that the island has been overrun with aggressive, mutated beasts sent by the United Earth. They have been under siege for months, with the island's population reduced to a mere fraction of what it had once been.

[Knowing the voice, Roxy looks up with a small smile, nodding once.]

Yeah. I just think it's best I sit this one, probs only gonna get myself killed or something out there, running about with a weapon I can't use properly and a killer head.

[punk_cute]

I know how that feels. Without a healer I ain't much use either out there.

[He sits down beside her, with a decent bit of distance between them and just kind of stares out into the streets.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

Yeah I know nothing about healing other than sticking a band-aid on someone, and I don't know anyone that's a healer type either. Didn't even think of that..

[Roxy sighs, sitting back.]

Probably best for us to just keep an eye out on stuff around here for now.

[punk_cute]

Yeah, be a last line of defense in case monsters get through or something.

[A beat of silence or three.]

Sucks not to be able to help.
