RESIDENT EVIL Project: Dunlake - BEGIN [LSUs welcome]

[Weasel Overlord]

Survivors

Marcus joins the group of you gathered around the pair of boxes.

Inside the long, slim box you find a stick. It resembles a snooker cue, with a sharpened piece of metal attached to one end by a piece of string. It does not look particularly secure, and when you pick it up, the metal wobbles alarmingly. The smaller box yields a better prize – a heavy key.

What will you do?


STARS 1

David and Evan both peer at the prone body. Evan's face is closer than it should be, and when he reaches down to poke, the body grabs on to his finger and pulls itself up using his arm. The zombie, for it is indeed a zombie, latches its jaws onto Evan's arm and bites down, flecks of saliva hitting David in the face. He reaches for his gun, but the zombie's lunge knocks Evan bodily into him, and they both fall heavily backwards onto the floor.

Encounter:

Zombie | Uninjured | Health: Unknown

Evan Rossi Status: -5 Health, zombie bite

What will you do?


STARS 2

The door swings behind you, and you hear the click as it shuts properly, closing out the sounds of a struggle from the Hall. You look around the room – it's a Dining Room. There is a long table in the centre, spanning the majority of the space, and it's laid with dusty silverware, cracked crockery, and at each setting there stands a half-full glass of red wine, which gives off a smell like overripe fruit. A small fly buzzes around near your faces, and you swat it away distractedly.

At one end of the room stands a fireplace full of coal and kindling; the mantlepiece is old and weathered, and there is an eerie picture above it, the paint stained and yellowed, faded as if it has been in the sun for too long. The frame is ugly and large.

At the opposite end there is a doorway, which leads into a smaller room containing a desk with two drawers, and an outwardly curving pair of paned windows. The curtains surrounding them are maroon and motheaten, and they hang awkwardly off the pole.

This room has two items hidden somewhere within it.

What will you do?

STARS: David

It happened faster than he had expected, and actually caught David a bit off guard, what they had thought was a dead body, used Evan to rise up, and then bit down on his arm, sending spittle onto David’s face. He reached for his gun, the action being more muscle memory than anything else when faced with a hostile. Yet the monster seemed to already be one step ahead, and threw Evan at him, sending both of them tumbling to the ground.

“Get off..” David groaned, using his free arm to pull out his Sig and fired two rounds at the monster, aiming for the chest, but at the angle he was at his accuracy really wasn’t the best.

~Two shots at the Zombie’s Chest with his Sig. ~

Jeremy Rush ~ STARS Captain
Location: Dining Room

As I passed through the door, I came to find myself looking at a large hall with a long table. A dining room, and from what I could tell, it was set up and ready to seat people. I didn't see any people though; fortunately I also didn't see any not-exactly-people either. The fly buzzing in my face didn't count.

Ven came through the doorway behind me, and no sooner had she gone past the open door than it shut suddenly with a definitive slam. Ven and I spun quickly with our weapons drawn to face the door to see who had closed the door, but there was nobody there.

"Creepy mansion with auto-slamming doors," I said, relaxing a bit. "Par for the course," I added with a small chuckle. Ven just let out a small sigh, which I expected; she might be snarky and sarcastic, but cheesy humor doesn't exactly fall under her 'likes' column.

I stopped and finally took a good look around the room. The table was definitely meant to host a nice big party of people. The silverware was rather dusty, though, as if it had been sitting for a while. The plates looked worse for wear, most of them chipped, some of them even cracked in some places.

Interestingly enough, each place had a relatively pristine wine glass, and each glass was half-filled with what I could only assume was wine. The faint smell of past-ripe fruit seemed to confirm my suspicion.

"At least it's not blood…" I said suddenly, making Ven give me a rather odd look. "Hey, you have to admit it's a good thing they're not filled with blood."

"Well yeah, but it was still a rather random comment." She shook her head as we started circling the table, heading towards the large fireplace.

"Keep an eye out for anything useful," I said as we walked.

STARS 1

Your body twists awkwardly as you shoot – one of your shots goes wild, the other embeds deep into the zombie's shoulder, knocking it back a step but not doing much in the way of lasting damage. It lurches forward, knocking you to the ground – you are now at the bottom of the stairs, on the floor. You knock your head on the floor and see stars for a second, and then the Zombie makes a lunge for your neck.

Encounter:

Zombie | One Injury| Health: Unknown

Evan Rossi Status: -2 Health, zombie bite, unconscious
David Warner Status: -3 Health

What will you do?


STARS 2

You examine the fireplace and find that there is a small box nestled between the cluttered ornaments.

What will you do?


Survivors

An alarming hissing noise fills the air, and you look around, worried. What could it be?

What will you do?

I'll post since nobody else will >.<

The Frenchman looked around as the unsettling hissing sound filled the air. "Ok, enough sitting around. We've got to go NOW! You!" he said, pointing at Roxanne, "See if that key will open the door. If not, you," he gestured to Marcus, "Smash that window with that spear...thing. Ok, let's move!"


Trying the key on the door. If that fails, smash the window with the weapon.

[Weasel Overlord]

Survivors

The key slides perfectly into the lock, and you collectively breath a sigh of relief as the heavy door slams closed behind you, effectively cutting off the hissing of the escaping gas. God knows what kind of gas that was, but you didn't fancy hanging around to find out!

Now you're inside the office-room - it is poky and small, the furniture and lockers taking up much of the room inside. There are six lockers, as mentioned in the previous description, and one of them is slightly battered at the edges - its door almost hanging open. Within the office-room, there are four items.

What will you do?

He breathed a sigh of relief as they were safely out of the room. He looked around the room, before deciding to inspect the desk.


Checking the desk.
