I almost have to read out loud to understand that ^^^

EDIT: Man, this page-starting thing is becoming a habit

EDIT2: If wiffles doesn't come back soon, he will get disqualified. I'll send him a PM.

Everyone else, great job of keeping up with the rolls and posting your actions.

Countdown

Sorry guys, I forgot to put my roll up here after i got back from my 3day roadtrip :/

Im gonna get in the jeep and follow that convoy, while paying attention to the road.

@wiffles: You mean that you'll >get in the jeep and follow that convoy, while paying attention to the road., right? [/attntodetail]

That looks like all five actions to me!


Duh102 (3) Rachel

"Well then, Fiona, I suppose we should go follow the convoy?" asks Rachel
"Yep, led's get do going while da going is sdill good." she answered, walking over to the jeep.
"C'mon, ged in." Fiona hops into the driver's seat and opens the passenger door for Rachel.
"Hey! Wait up!" Dogberry shouts, running to get in the back, I'll lend you some firepower."
Dogberry jumps in the back and sets up his B.A.R. Machinegun to point out the back window.
Fiona starts the jeep, waves out the window to Eric and Andrew, and starts off down the road.

Fiona strikes up a conversation with Rachel, "I may be plendy condecending, bud I'm mosd cerdainly not sdupid."
Rachel replies, "Couldn't say the same for some though."
"Big dings live in dis jungle, and dey won'd mind eading us. I'd prefer nod do be widoud backup when dey come knocking."
"Probably a good thing we've got him in the back, isn't it?"
"Definidely. We should have never losd dad convoy. I've god a bad feeling aboud dis mission."
"Oh yay, now that you've said that, SOMETHING going to go wrong, isn't it? Always does."

caekdaemon (2) Bob Jameson Jones
Since BJJ is somewhere where nobody knows, his actions will be sent by PM until he is seen by the group again.

Benpasco (3) Eric

Eric walks back to the Quad where Fiona and Rachel were talking, but as he walks towards them, they walk past him. He turns around to says something, but Andrew bumps into him from behind. No falling over this time though, just a little bump.
"Whoops, sorry Eric. Wasn't watching where I was going." explains Andrew.
The ladies, meanwhile, have gotten into the jeep before them. Dogberry cries out, races over and jumps in the back.
"Looks like they're going. We'd better hurry up then if we are going to follow!" says Eric, who jumps on the Quad.
Andrew hops on the back, gingerly holding the handles near Eric's bottom. "Shouldn't we try to get to where the convoy is?"
"I'm driving, and I think that following a jeep with a machinegun is a good idea" Eric points to the back of the jeep, and Andrew sees that Dogberry is setting up his Machinegun on the back window.
"Well OK, just don't get us in his line-of-fire. I've had enough dodging things for today."
Eric hits the big green START button on the Quad. Fiona waves out the window, and both the jeep and the Quad start off down the road at a reasonable pace, to catch up with the convoy.

wiffles (3) Dogberry

Dogberry is standing around, wondering what to do, when Fiona and Rachel commandeer the jeep behind his back. He hears the doors close
behind him.
"Hey! Wait up!" he shouts, running to get in the back, I'll lend you some firepower."
Dogberry jumps in the back and sets up his B.A.R. Machinegun to point out the back window.
Fiona starts the jeep, waves out the window to Eric and Andrew, and starts off down the road.
He checks over his weapon, ensuring the rounds are clean and the gun can rotate with encumbering himself. When checking his line-of-sight down the barrel, he can clearly see Eric and Andrew, who are behind them on the Quad, and a glint of something shiny in the jungle beside where they just left.

FoiL (1) Andrew Rodrigues

Andrew follows Eric and has a quick look at the two ladies as they walk past. He doesn't notice Eric turn around mid-stride and bumps into him from behind. He almost trips into the dirt, but Eric grabs his arm and pulls him back onto his feet.
"Whoops, sorry Eric. Wasn't watching where I was going." explains Andrew.
The ladies, meanwhile, have gotten into the jeep before them. Dogberry cries out, races over and jumps in the back.
"Looks like they're going. We'd better hurry up then if we are going to follow!" says Eric, who jumps on the Quad.
Andrew hops on the back, gingerly holding the handles near Eric's bottom. "Shouldn't we try to get to where the convoy is?"

Eric hits the big green START button on the Quad. Fiona waves out the window, and both the jeep and the Quad start off down the road at a reasonable pace, to catch up with the convoy.

Game Events:
As the group leaves, everything goes silent. No leaves russling, no animals making noises, just the sounds of the vehicles. As they get down the road, everything goes back to sounding normal. Everyone has the feeling that this mission is going to get very interesting very soon.

Up ahead is a huge writhing shape on the ground. Nobody can tell what it is. You should get closer. The road also bends to the left and out of site.

Map:


Do something EXCITING guys! (and girl )

I'm about to fire my nuke launcher at the enemy base.

Roll please.

fiona (hyper) should make the huge writhing creature a huge writhing creature with holes in it don't you think?

In a different post, kthx.

On second thought.

"Dogberry, look alive."
>Powerslide into a 180, stopping the jeep, so Dogberry can fire at that thing freely if needed. Keep the jeep running though.
"Rachel, keep a bead on that thing."

I geuss Im driving then Slow down, then carefully approach whateve the hell is over there

Om nom nom nom

Duh102 (4) Rachel

Rachel has no idea what the creature in the middle of the road is, "The hell is that?!" she says.
"Soon do be dead if I have anyding do say aboud id." Fiona glances over with a grin and a glint in her eye, then puts the jeep into a full-180 spin while Rachel and Dogberry hold onto their britches.
As soon as the jeep stops, Rachel tumbles out of the door in a true-to-life commando roll, loads a bolt into her crossbow and aims down the sight in a clear motion, right at the creature. Dogberry yanks back the slide on his B.A.R. while a loud click-clank! and also aims at the creature.

Suddenly, an air-horn blasts from behind and the quad comes screaming past on two wheels, just missing the jeep. Andrew is holding on for dear life and Eric's face is a blur. The quad bounces around on its tires and comes to rest a little too close to the creature, right in the sights of all three of them.

Andrew is, again, lying on the road. But this time, he is quite conscious and has his Colt 1911 trained on one of the two targets in front of him.
Rachel wonders if the 'thing' actually needs help, and has a close look at it.

"What?!

Hyperkultra (5) Fiona

Fiona sees the 'thing' in the middle of the road, and instantly decides on a plan of action. "Dogberry, look alive!" She yells backward. Then to her passenger, "Rachel! Keep a bead on dad ding!"
She replies in kind, "The hell is that?!"
"Soon do be dead if I have anyding do say aboud id." Rachel looks at her, fright clear on her face. Pulling up the handbrake, spinning the wheel and pushing the accelerater to the floor all at once, Fiona puts the jeep into a full-180 spin with screeching tires and seatbelt-straining G-forces.

Looks like Dogberry has a rival Super-Driver

As soon as the jeep stops, Rachel tumbles out of the door in a true-to-life commando roll. Dogberry yanks back the slide on his B.A.R. while a loud click-clank! and also aims at the creature. Leaving the jeep running, Fiona gets out of the Jeep with her railgun hoisted up and loaded.

Suddenly, an air-horn blasts from behind and the quad comes screaming past on two wheels, just missing Fiona. Andrew is holding on for dear life and Eric's face is a blur. The quad bounces around on its tires and comes to rest a little too close to the creature, right in the sights of all three of them.

Andrew is, again, lying on the road. But this time, he has his Colt 1911 trained on the two targets in front of him.
Fiona overlays the sight on the moving creature, then realises what it is.

She lowers the railgun and cocks an eyebrow at the now-apparant 'thing'.

Benpasco (5) Eric

Eric sees the 'thing', and says to Andrew "What is that?!"
Andrew yells forward, "Just stop the bike next to the side of the jeep so that we're protected!"
Eric speeds up a little to catch up to the jeep, and completely out-of-the-blue the jeep tilts forward with screeching tires and spins, send dirt everywhere.
Eric squints and hunches his shoulders, "Oh crap! I can't see!"
He feels one of Andrew's hands leave the handhold, and the jeep blurs into view right in front of them.

" * * * * !"

Eric twists the handlebars to avoid the jeep, and barely sees Fiona jumps out of the way. The Quad tips onto two wheels because of the unexpected change of direction, and Eric's elbow connects with Andrew behind him.
The Quad's balance shifts and the wheels slide along the dirt. Eric desperately leans sideways to correct the Quad and bounces the tires. The Quad ends up facing the side of the road right next to the 'thing'.

Eric can clearly see what it is, and he knows he is in something really deep - and really stinky.

wiffles (3) Dogberry

Dogberry is feeling the effects of that chocolate. If not for the confines of the jeep he'd be bouncing off the walls.
"Dogberry, look alive!" Fiona yells from the front.
Fiona puts the jeep into a full-180 spin while Rachel and Dogberry hold onto their britches.
Dogberry yanks back the slide on his B.A.R. while a loud click-clank! and aims at the one target in front of him.

Suddenly, an air-horn blasts from behind and the quad comes screaming past on two wheels, just missing the jeep.
Andrew is holding on for dear life and Eric's face is a blur. The quad bounces around on its tires and comes to rest a little too close to the creature, right in Dogberry's sights.
Andrew is, again, lying on the road. But this time, he is quite conscious and has his Colt 1911 trained on one of the two targets in front of him.
Dogberry grins, and sticks his eye on the scope. Hang on a tick, that's a...

The gears in his head start cranking, and he thinks that this could be more dangerous thatn first thought.

FoiL (2) Andrew Rodrigues

Looking over Eric's shoulder, Andrew sees something on the road in front.
Eric yells back to Andrew "What is that?!"
Andrew replies, "Just stop the bike next to the side of the jeep so that we're protected!"
The quad speeds up a little, and completely out-of-the-blue the jeep tilts forward with screeching tires and spins, sending dirt everywhere.
Eric hunches his shoulders and curses, "I can't see!"
Andrew removes his hand from the grip and reaches down to pull out his Pistol.

" * * * * !"

The Quad swerves and tips sideways, and Andrew gets an elbow in the ribs. He lets go of the second handle and falls back.
Eric and the Quad bounce and ends up facing the side of the road right next to the 'thing'.
Andrew is left lying on the road unharmed again by some horrible twist of fate, but he is on his back with his Pistol out. He aims it without hesitation.
Eric is sitting on the Quad, and next to him is the squirming creature. Andrew doesn't know which to aim at.

Game Events:
Everyone can clearly see the Spotted Panther tangled in a net next to Eric. It is straining and growling against the lines, and there are pieces and chunks of nylon all over the road. A final bit snaps and the Panther is set free, crouching and snarling at it's nearest target: Eric.

It's pissed.

RUN FORREST RUN!!!!!!!!

Betterer Map: You guys are about half-way along that curvy stretch.
