Awakening: Rorexsth

#1 Post by TheMyth »

This thread is only for Rorexsth.

Rorexsth regains consciousness atop a simple bed in a plain white room. The walls are panelled and the light diffuse, seeming to come from above but with no single source of illumination.

The room had two things of note: a simple table with a mirror attached to it and the brass framed bed upon which Rorexsth now lies.

The Cat tries to remember where he is, how he got here, and why he was asleep, but he draws a blank. The last thing he remembers is working in his laboratory and being filled with hate. Hate for that man and the horrible thing he made Rorexsth do. That man is reprehensible, and Rorexsth was trying to find a way to escape him. To make him PAY for what he did. And then there was...nothing.

Was there a rush of wind? Is that the last thing he remembers?

No matter what....Rorexsth now finds himself in this room - alone - and he needs to figure out what to do next!

Before getting up, scan the walls and ceiling for cameras, then look for a door.

Rorexsth looks around the room but sees no obvious cameras. He also sees no obvious door.

He notes he does have his datacard and toolkit though....

Stand up, stretch, and walk to closest wall. Then feel for seams, slowly circumventing the room.

Searching like this requires a roll of Awareness + Subterfuge + 2d6 +2 for Keen Senses.

Rorexsth feels along the wall. The panelling has grooves in between, and Rorexsth is quite sure he has found the door. But, it will not open by touch alone.

Take out the sonic screwdriver and see if that opens it.

Rorexsth uses the sonic screwdriver in an attempt to open the door. He activates the device and approaches the door, but then something unexpected happens...

The door opens with a *whoosh*!

Outside, a corridor runs from left to right alongside the door.

Rorexsth exits and heads to the right, down the corridor until he comes to a door or an opening.

Rorexsth exits the room, and turns right. Up ahead, at a four-way intersection, he sees a figure on some sort of two-wheeled vehicle. It looks like a fembot of some sort, but he cannot tell for certain. The figure is looking down another hallway to the right, but does not seem to have noticed Rorexsth yet.

The figure at the intersection then turns to Rorexsth. Then turns down to the right and yells something in a strange language.

Somehow, in his mind, Rorexsth understands what the woman said:

"What the hell are you doing!"

To be clear, the figure on the wheeled vehicle is in the middle of the intersection.

Rorexsth is nearly upon the figure at the intersection when the feminine voice calls out down to the right:

"Yes I speak English. How did you get here? I am not sure how I ended up here or where here even is."

Make a roll to identify what "English" means: Ingenuity + Knowledge +2d6.
