Check Harry for Hive mind chip

You never know

Use laser pointer to scan the room for invisible players

Check mirrors for hidden compartments

Carefully

Crowbar till open

Take cctv camera

Harry are you able to help me search the room? I have to complete the action that I'm part way through with before I can move on to the next. It will probably go faster if we work together.

I think there's probably a sub-task and order of initiative, routine or action priority. Ambic can't resolve all of my spammed choices at once, because that would make me a supergirl who could do everything in a room in a single second.

Check Harry for Hive mind chip

You never know

Use laser pointer to scan the room for invisible players

Check mirrors for hidden compartments

Duck/Lacey is currently searching opened mirror cupboards.

Carefully

Crowbar till open

Take cctv camera

I'm guessing my other actions wont be processed until after I stop the one I'm actively on. Perhaps you see if you can do anything regarding the locked till and the flatscreen, while I go through the cupboards.

Also good thinking on those mirrors! Feel free to chip in any other gems you might have.

[RubberDuck]

Pickup Steroids

Pickup Absinthe

[ambic]

Theres no mind control chip, invisible players, hidden compartments, the till has money in it - in case you care, you break the CCTV camera off the wall.

[RubberDuck]

Harry you can take the Cash if you'd like.

Inspect camera for any useable parts such as lights, sensors, lenses etc and place the remains neatly on the shelf in the backroom. Move the dust around so it looks like its been there a while.

[ambic]

Not this caMera

[RubberDuck]

Check Spray bottle with "unidentified fluid" for Danger/biohazard or chemical markings on the bottle.

Add drop of Hair Gel to the empty absinthe bottle and place the gel back in the cupboard.
Use the crowbar and scissors to grind the foil into a Fine foil dust and add to absinthe bottle.
Add a few drops of other alcohols to Absinthe bottle to mix.
Add a few drops of super glue to the "incredibly dangerous concoction" a.k.a "Absinthe"
Carefully, top up "absinthe" with fluid from spray bottle.
Close Absinthe bottle and give it a little mix.

Place absinthe bottle inside Dirty Coffee mug and place on the table near to the Office Chair and flat screen

Place Pepsi can next to mug.

[RubberDuck]

Ambic, are the mirror benches metallic?

Search benches for wired hair clippers or similar hairdressing tools (the kind that plug in)

[ambic]

Wooden

[Primate]

Sorry, I've had a weird few days, I'm around and active now.

(A Barber's foil is an electic razor, btw)

Put knife back in cane.

Investigate Flatscreen

[Primate]

If you want to get very morbid, use glass instead of "foil" dust.

[Primate]

"Would you mind showing me your upper right arm? Not that I think you're part of the hive mind, but it'd be embarassing if I introduced you and then it turned out you were."

[RubberDuck]

Good thinking. Unsure whether a digital hive mind would work on the Telepathic Undead.

Shows Harry arm

Jia told you it was the drones of the hive who do the microchipping right? So it’s not just the queen we need to watch out for. The hive is probably an alien npc computer to do with Jias role and one player “started” as a follower with a microchip implanter and the ability to spread more.

[Primate]

"Yeah, the impression i got is that there isn't a leader as such."

[Primate]

Examine the underside of Dr Laceys Arm

[RubberDuck]

The trap is confirmed set btw. If someone drinks metal, hair gel, superglue and whatever the unknown fluid is they probably will die. “Probably”

It was noted that Traps are a side kill and not the way we are meant to be focussing and should be aiming for combat or recruiting.

BM and I had the combat Math wrong. Which is why I thinking out the dice in zombie chat, but I’m not sure if your weapons are applied to joint combat.

Person A+B vs Person C: B is normally just +1 to the main attacker, as a zombie, you are unique and add +1D2, if your weapons are added. Then we have the potential for <6-10> attack range if we get you another weapon.

Pooky is probably the biggest melee threat and we know Pooky is armed and has followers for 1D7+2+1+1
Assuming he keeps talitha and Ariel on side.

These pills “look like steroids” I don’t know for sure what they do yet, but might help out in a fight? Preferably I’d give one to someone else to see what it does. Taking unknown pills is not generally a good idea.


Jias laser pistol also might prove to be a problem as she can kill us from range.

[Primate]

"I imagine I can't take steroids as i am dead, my queen."

"Jia's laser pistol is seriously scary. 6'6 guy in a bulletproof vest, turned to ash like that" *clicks*

[ambic]

Your arms are clear of anything odd.

Nothing of note in, or around, the flat screen.

[RubberDuck]

“The first servant was clinically dead. You too have evolved into a state of Undeath.

It’s true, that while you’re now physically weaker than your living self, there are.. other advantages.

I have freed you from the curse of life, age no longer applies to you. Your need to consume for survival has been wiped clean - air, sustenance, food and drink.
You do not breathe, you will feel no pain, you will not feel the effects of toxins or poisons.. hazardous environments should have little effect on you.
You have been bestowed the gift of telepathy, we can communicate without the need of foolish whispering and words even if we are rooms apart.

Your final gift is to help me purge this world of the living. Oh! It will be such fun getting to murder your friends in the mall! Much better than that human

trash

you were trying to collect.

Disdainfully looks towards the cash in the till

I will caution you however, your physical form on its own is fragile, (1D2) any damage inflicted on you alone will be fatal, or even a large source of radiation could easily damage the cells of your corpse rendering it immobile and killing my virus within you. You would quite simply and quickly return to a state of death. The first servant was lost to foolishness, I will not make that mistake again.

Now.. Coincidentally and perhaps somewhat conveniently.. I happened to have also previously misled Sir Leo that I had steroids for combat in the the hope the old fool would let me administer a shot to him.

The fact that I have now found what appears to be “steroids” is a happy albeit useful coincidence..”

“Speaking of the mortals in the other rooms.. Information is an asset. Why don’t you tell your Queen everything you know so far, who they are, what they want, where they have been and anything else they may have been stupid enough to tell you..

Oh and if it weren’t obvious already, you will need to keep up the pretences of anything you have said to the others previously.. can’t have you suddenly contradicting your former living self in front of them can we?”

[Primate]

Turn the flatscreen on. If it doesn't have power, move it to the power slots on the mirrors and attempt to plug it in

(is it like a tv or a pc touchscreen? Is it plugged into a computer or anything)

[ambic]

Its not plugged into anything. You can take it with you, but people will see you carrying a pc screen for no apparent reason

[RubberDuck]

Good thinking Harry!!

Do we want to have a tidy up here, in case anyone else decides to come in here later or shall we trash the room instead?

I think we're pretty much done in here. If you need a charger to turn that thing on, assuming you want to take it, there was a whole drawer full of chargers and plugs in the Hardware store.

Things still in here.
1. Cash in the opened register.
2. Alcohol bottles - Could take one or two?
3. Torn Raquel Welch Poster - looks like some idiot has jumped through it - The door is clearly visible now.
4. Hair Gel in the cupboard.
5. Remains of foil.
6. Spray bottle with unidentified fluid
7. Regarding sharp weapons, Xavier picked up a shard of glass from the wrecked truck. If we can't find sharp scissors for you we could always try busting up one of the mirrors for a piece of glass like Xavier did.

Let me know if I've forgotten anything?

[RubberDuck]

Pull office chair back slightly and investigate counter that the flatscreen was sitting on

Look for what the screen might have been once connected to

[ambic]

There appears to be a spot where the Point of Sale system would have once been. IT's gone however. Probably missing for months.

[RubberDuck]

..Of course its gone.
