Call of Cthulhu: Red White and Dead All Over IC

[TerrickTerran]

It was quiet in the hospital, in fact it was too quiet. Despite talks of a party it was nearly silent. Now you have found yourself alone. There are no signs of nurses, doctors, orderlies or attendants. Just an eerie silence and a feeling of uneasiness. There are a few sounds, hard to place that seem to be happening but it feels so wrong a hospital should be so quiet.

[Kaworu]

Benjamin was a men of average height in his early thirties. Ha had short, black hair, glasses and was wearing a suit and tie. He was sitting down on a chair and reading a book "Modern approach to archaeology". He could as well read something when waiting for his appointment with a doctor.

[Brox]

"Well apparently my lead was completely off. This is a fine how-do-you-do..." thought Everett as he looked around the empty lobby. "Luckily, the doors are sealed as well so there is no going out that way...and climbing out the window is completely unacceptable in this attire..." Everett glanced down at his worsted wool dress suit and fine Oxford shoes, absently drawing his pocket watch from his waistcoat pocket to check the time. "Perhaps there is another method of egress elsewhere...A quick look around the lobby would be prudent as well. Being accosted by a resident would be thoroughly unsatisfactory, and bad form to boot!"

Looking around the lobby for something to use as a club
spot hidden [roll0] looking for something under 50

"Just my luck it seems...perhaps a little exploration is in order"


HELLO-OOOOO!

[RayvinXavier]

Malachi could sense there was something amiss. He as a journalist was weary of the hospital being in silence. He knew there was something going to happen. He was a occult writer for the local magazine. He looked around to find someone who could tell hi about the silence of the hospital and how to get a good story for his column in the occult magazine he writes for. He wants something that will give hi a great column and story for the mag he writes for. He went strolling along the corridors to find other people if he could find someone to tell hi something about the goings on at the hospital.

[Morbis Meh]

The trip from New York had been relatively uneventful, the day was lovely and he finally got to test out the legs on Heidi his new German sports car. Yes all was going just smashingly, he had arrived at Boston General early in the afternoon and hand spent a good while lounging on a sofa drinking a particularly nice vintage of scotch whilst flirting with a few of the nurses. Rex had asked him to come over to perform a rather complicated heart procedure and Isaac couldn't say no to his oldest of friends. Finishing the remainder of his drink in a single gulp, Dr. Matheson sets down his glass and reaches for his watch, enjoying the burning sensation in his throat and stomach.

Quarter past four, Rex said surgery was a 4:30... I should go tot he OR and scrub in, too bad a few more minutes with that brunette and I would have had a dinner date. Maybe I will get lucky and she will be my OR nurse.

Replacing his watch in his suit pocket, Isaac stood up and stretched, suddenly feeling lightheaded from the rush of blood and the excess in scotch. He shakes his head to rid himself of the sensation before leaving the staff lounge and walking down the eerily quiet and empty hallway.

Well this is odd, where are the orderlies and other nurses? I didn't hear any ER announcements over the intercom, maybe it's shift change?

Growing steadily uncomfortable in the abandoned hallway, Isaac begins whistling loudly to break the silence as he makes his way to the OR he was scheduled in.

[TerrickTerran]

The intercom suddenly comes to life..or is it? There is definitely the sound of an intercom "Paging Dr. Michaels. Dr. Michaels, please report to the Operating Room." Yet something seems off about it. Other than the noise, it is still silent.

Dr. Matheson
make a sanity roll and a knowledge check

[Morbis Meh]

I will post after I see the results...
Sanity below 75 is ideal [roll0] phew that was certainly close... lol
Knowledge ...he has a 100 for knowledge [roll1] this is good enough

Isaac stops to listen at the crackling announcement before continuing towards the OR, not suspecting anything to be out of sorts.

[Brox]

"Well, that seems promising! It looks like someone else is trapped here with me as well. Hopefully Dr. Michaels knows more about why we're locked in here." I'll look around for directions on the walls and such or maybe a floorplan that will direct me to the Operating Room.

HELLO-OOOO IS THERE ANYONE THERE?

[RayvinXavier]

Malachi heard the sound over the intercom. He was certain if he found the doctor he could find out what was going on at the hospital. He went walking in search for someone to tell him what was going on here. He had his trusty notebook and pen for making notes for his article in the occult magazine he wrote for. He was proficient in his craft. He loved nothing other than writing. "Hello... Where is everyone... Hellllloooo.." Malachi called out.

[MSGM]

Matthew stepped into the abandoned hospital looking cautiously at the people around him.

" Hello? " He ventured " Has anyone seen a Doctor or anyone from the staff around here? "

[Sir Dancealot]

Ami walked slowly down the hallway, her heels clicking loudly. Even more loudly to her considering that there were no other sounds in the building. Bothered by this, she began opening doors as checking through the rooms as she went, looking for anything or anyone that could tell her what was going on.



Spot Hidden [roll0] vs 25
I am so good at seeing stuff.

[TerrickTerran]

For everyone
please let me know where your characters are. It doesn't matter, but will help me to set up situations

Dr. Matheson
despite hearing the intercom, you can see that it's unplugged. Lose 1 sanity. As you near the operating room there is blood on the floor. Make a spot hidden check

Now everyone can hear, "Dr. Michaels to the operating room. Dr. Michaels to the operating room." The uneasiness strengthens as you stand there though you can all hear movement and sounds of voices.

[Morbis Meh]

[roll0] vs 85

Isaac stops and peers at the intercom only to be confused and slightly wigged out but that is forgotten once he sees blood coming from the door "What in GODS name is going on here, why in the hell is there blood on the floor!"

[RayvinXavier]

Malachi walks along the hallway and bumps into the Doctor. He notices the blood coming from the operating room. He is a bit nervous about what he is going to be seeing here. He is used to rotting corps, but this is a bit different to his articles and the magazine he writes for. He looks at the blood and staggers back a little to get away from the pool of blood covering the floor. "Mister, what is going on here? Where are those voices and noises coming from?" Malachi asks as he turned to see others coming their way.

[Brox]

Location: Hallway down from Lobby

looking for directions to OR

[roll0] vs 50

Just Barely made it. Hopefully there are actual directions to the OR.

[Sir Dancealot]

Location: The Office area of the Asylumish Wing of the hospital.

Ami froze at the intercom's crackling. Taking her heels off, she began to move silently towards the noise. She sincerely wished she had a gun right now.

[TerrickTerran]

Malachi, Everett and Isaac
please roll sanity checks

Isaac
you see two rats eating human brains. This is extremely disturbing obviously

Everyone else
there are footsteps approaching you. You don't see anyone, but you can hear them

[Morbis Meh]

damn this isn't going so well, 2 sanity rolls in very short order [roll0] vs 74

Isaac recoils at the sight "Jesus, Mary, and Joseph what the *uck are rats doing in a hospital and how in the seven hells did they get that?

[Sir Dancealot]

Glancing around, Ami looked for somewhere, anywhere to hide. An empty hall that should be full of people? This did not bode well in her mind.


[roll0] vs 40

Yep. I figured as much.

[Brox]

Sanity Check 75: ugh

[Brox]

Sanity Check 75: [roll0]

Barely made it.

[RayvinXavier]

Sanity - 70 [roll0]

[MSGM]

Matthew would start in the hospital's reception hall if possible.

[Kaworu]

Benjamin stopped reading a book and rise from the chair, looking for the person responsible for the footsteps.

[TerrickTerran]

Matthew and Benjamin see each other but the footsteps seem to be coming from another direction

Malachi Sanity
[roll0]

There are many noises coming from the operating room and much screaming. It sounds as if someone is doing surgery with no anesthetic.

Everett finds his way easily towards the operating room and sees the blood which makes him nauseous but doesn't break his mind yet.

Ami sees nothing yet unless she enters the lobby, the operating room hallway or possibly one location.

Ami
make a knowledge roll

[RayvinXavier]

There are many noises coming from the operating room and much screaming. It sounds as if someone is doing surgery with no anesthetic.

Malachi hears the screaming. He is a tad frightened of the screams from inside the operating theater. He thinks even though he was an occult writer who wrote articles about horror and scary things he'd come in contact in his young life. He looks around to see if he can get someone to go inside the operating theater. He looks around to find anyone to go inside with him.

[Brox]

Hopefully I've found something to act as a club. Dear God they must be mutilating that poor wretch in there... I never liked being sane...


If there is a circular window, look through it. If not, open the door

[Kaworu]

Benjamin stopped reading his book, raised himself and waved to Matthew.

- Good morning sir. Do you know the source of these footsteps? - asked gently, looking around.

[Sir Dancealot]

Ami creeps steadily forward, eventually heading down towards the lobby. Hopefully nothing is out to shoot her, or stab her, or beat her to death. Or any other various methods of dying. That would really not be the best of things right now.

[Morbis Meh]

Isaac turns around at the two men gawking at the sight "Who the hell are you two and why are you here, you aren't cleared to be here in this wing. This is the OR and only medical personal are allowed over here, go back to the waiting room." He doesn't bother waiting for a reply, instead he charges into the OR to see what the hell is going on.

[RayvinXavier]

"Who the hell are you two and why are you here, you aren't cleared to be here in this wing. This is the OR and only medical personal are allowed over here, go back to the waiting room."

Malachi watched the guy walk into the OR. He thinks for a few minutes to either go into the OR or wait for anyone else who knows more before he ventures into the OR. He takes a huge deep breath and pushes the OR doors open and walked in behind the man telling him to go to the waiting room. He had a article to write. He looks at the man and smiled.

"Who are you top tell me where to be. I have an article to write for my magazine I write for. I am prepared to do whatever there needs to be taken to get my article." Malachi blurts out loudly as he looks around the OR. Thinking maybe he made a error to enter the room.

[Brox]

"Well there's no need for coarse language. One would think his parents raised him better...Oh! Now where did you come from, and why are you going in there??" said Everett to absolutely no one at all. "This wont do at all. But I suppose there is some safety in numbers." Really, really intending to go through the door, Everett pushes the swinging doors open and steps into the room.

[MSGM]

Matthew shakes his head and shrugs.

" I really have no clue. Is this place always so deserted? "

Then he turns towards the footsteps.

" Seems like somethings going on over there... "

He walks towards the sound carefully.

[TerrickTerran]

Operating Room
As you burst into the room, there is much carnage. You see various doctors and nurses strapped to tables, bloodied, dead, or alive and being operated on by ghoulish creatures. They are busy with what they are doing and have yet to notice you but many are carrying sharp insturments.


Lobby
As you look, you see an old woman pushing a man in a wheelchair. She looks at you. "Hello, have you seen any of the doctors? It's suddenly so quiet around here."

Operating Room
please make sanity checks except the doctor.

[Brox]

Sanity Check (75): [roll0]

Still going strong!

[Morbis Meh]

Isaac stops as his eyes watch the butchery being committed here but he knows he is no hero and slowly backs away from the room before those things take notice. By all the saints and angels in heaven what is going on? Am I dead and in hell? I need a drink... He ignores the other two and their questions for now believing now was not the time for an argument.

[Sir Dancealot]

"I am terribly sorry, but I have not. Have you possibly seen anyone ozer zan me?" Ami asks the people in the lobby, at least she found someone, even if they didn't look like they would be too much help.

[Kaworu]

- I'm sorry lady, I also have seen no one - dr. Benjamin explained.

[RayvinXavier]

Sanity - 69 [roll0]

[TerrickTerran]

Lobby

As you stand there talking, you see an older woman wheeling a very old man in a wheelchair. "Oh my" she says. "There are people here? Perhaps we might make it out of here yet."

Operating Room
As Isaac speeds out, Malachi and Everett are stunned by the horrid mess and creatures there.

Everett lose 1 sanity.

Malachi
[roll0] All right, I need you to make an idea roll.

They have yet to come towards you but they seem to know you are there.

[Morbis Meh]

Isaac hustles back towards the employee lounge, hoping to gain access to the phone so he can call in the police. He had no idea what those things were or why they were doing what they were doing but he knew for damn sure it wasn't a good thing.

[RayvinXavier]

1d100 Sanity Roll

Malachi looks around in shock he runs right out the door and heads for a safe place he can gather his thoughts. He notes down that he thinks he saw something wrong in the OR. He just can't remember what he saw. All he knows is he saw something he doesn't want to remember and is repressing it. He looks around the hallways for someone to tell him if he is going totally crazy or not. All he needs is to get the heck out of this hospital and forget his assignment from the occult magazine he writes for. He would rather be safe than go totally crazy in this nut house.

"HELLO...ANYBODY AROUND!" he screams out loudly.

[Kaworu]

- Good morning lady - Benjamin was as always courteous, greeting old lady - Please, let me help you with this wheelchair, it must be heavy - said Denkart, being ready to help her.

[TerrickTerran]

Malachi instinctively blots out the horrible sights as you all manage to escape the crazy operating room of terror.

Meanwhile, the lobby has five people who can hear the sounds of people running. (AKA the other players)

[Kaworu]

- Hm - Benjamin said loudly - Who is running here, hm? HELLO! - he shouted in the direction of running people - Hello, who are you and why are you running?
