DH RPG - Fine Temperance(1) + Ferrox Underhive Arc (2)

[ImperialServant]

"Hold your ground and keep firing!" Lazerus will yell as he and stig pop back above cover to blast the Servitor.

[johngoblin]

Despite the treacherous footing, Sila will make the best of the ramp and try to get down and head out the dome after the target.

The howling chaos servitor slams into the cover Stig and Lazerus are sheltering behind, tearing it to bits with it's massive drill fist.

Lazerus jumps free, but Stig gets a nasty gash across his face and forehead and he sprawls out on rough cobblestones of the plaza.

The Arbiters run from there cover closing in on the beast and firing full auto into it's flanks. Their autogun rounds rip savage bloody holes in it's black hide drawing the beast attention away from their fallen team mate.

Lucius pull the hot pulsating key from his pocket with trembling fingers and holds it up for examination. A terrific bolt of eldritch power arcs out of the key and strikes the daemonic servitor, snaring it like a fish on a line. The beast tries to pull away and Lucius clutching the key in both hands is hauled out of the alley and drug roughly across the paving stones into the plaza as the snared beast retreats trying to free itself from what ever rare power has snared it.

Sila drops down onto the rock slide hill and scrambles over the crumbled blocks and jagged stones in pursuit of the dark mechanicus.

Kron rushes to Stig and tries to drag the massive man to safety.

[guardsman001]

Lucious will hold ever tighter onto the key and continue to move towards the beast... ever resolute in his walking towards the gun serviator

while moving closer, Lucious will begin to give orders to the gun serviator in strings of bianary, SHUT DOWN ALL INTERNAL FUNCTIONS, DISENGAGE ALL TARGETING SYSTEMS, EJECT ALL AMMUNITION, SHUT DOWN MAIN POWER SUPPLY

he will continue to chant these orders as he comes closer to the beast

[ImperialServant]

"Get moving!" Lazerus will bellow as he motions for everyone to head to the exit where the dark mechanicus left the dome. Lazerus will bend down, grab Stig's arm and throw it over his shoulders so that Stig is suspended between Lazerus and Kron. Lazerus will then head for the exit.

Lucius jogs towards the beast to avoid being dragged. He streams binary commands from his vox speaker to no avail. The creature continues to pull away from the ensnaring line of energy anchored on the key. It's skin begins to smoke and crack. Suddenly, with a horrid screech, a great flailing shadow of blue flames rips free from the servitor. Ensnared by the powers of the strange black key, the daemon essence is a writhing ever changing compilation of jagged barbed wings, snapping fanged maws and long clawed limbs. It roars and thrashes around on ground drooling warp fire and ripping up the cobbles of the plaza. Lucius hangs on, to afraid to let go. The smoldering servitor carcass slumps over it's weapons arms sag and collapse ripping free of the body as the meat putrefies and rots away in an instant leaving only blackened bones and tarnished metal. The Arbiters fall back quickly from the loosed daemon. They run to the edge of the plaza eyes wide in terror.

Lazerus and Kron drag the barely conscious Stig down the street and onto the broken rock slide heading slowly towards the bridge.

Sila crosses the creaking and swaying bridge. The cold winds of the frost wastes beyond the dome bite at her skin and send her ragged clothes slapping violent against her flesh. The stars above are bright and merciless. The darkness is thick but she can see a group of lights moving ahead of her down a slope and into a ravine. Sila scrambles along in the frozen ash and sharp stones. A chorus of high pitched whining sounds grow in the distance.

[ImperialServant]

Lazerus and Kron will drag Stig into a doorway and attempt to revive Stig. After Stig is revived Lazerus will have Stig gather the arbiters and Lucious to attack the demon while Lazerus and Kron head for the Dome Breach.

[guardsman001]

Lucious will continue to walk towards the unbound daemon, Blurting strings of Bianary... when the daemon is at the base of Lucious' feet he will bring the key to the beast he will Shove the Key into the beast's heart.

[ImperialServant]

"Let's go!" Stig yells as he motions for the arbiters and Lucious to follow after Lazerus and Kron. Stig will start double-timing to catch up with Lazerus and Kron.

[Wayne S]

"Let's go!" Yells Stig struggling to stand, his blood running into his eyes and blinding him. Kron holds him up as Lazerus uses a scrap from his fatigues to bandage his face and stop the bleeding.

Lucius moves in close to the daemon but the raging horrors of the warp wash over him and he falls to his knees, his mechanical eyes leaking black fluid and his skin smoking and bubbling.

With a true test of will power, screaming a string of binary scrap code in pain and horror, Lucius stabs the key into the heart of the thrashing daemon. His hands burning off completely as he thrusts them into the warp fire of the beast.

The great beast shrieks in agony and roars into the sky on a pillar of fire and explodes in massive reaction like a great firework, tiny motes of shifting rainbow light falling slowly to the ground.

Lucius falls onto his side unconscious. The black key falls at his feet with a metallic ping.

SIla moves down the slope. She scrapes her shins on the sharp rocks as she stumbles in the dark heading towards the lights. The chorus of whines grows to become the roar of vector engines as three valkyrie gunships soar over the hillside and continue towards the lights down in the ravine.
