Hold my right hand in the room, and flick the lighter on. Observe what I can see.

You see the same as before.

There are four shelves located on the southern end of the room filled with items, approximately 20 by 40 feet. There is a desk near where you're standing on the north end of the room. The room is too dark to see much else. There's also a light switch on the wall near you.

[Splitpersonality]

Inch my way over to the desk, and examine it. Keeping an eye for anything else illuminated by my torch.

[Seon]

Why don't you try the Light Switch?

[Splitpersonality]

I did, it didn't do anything so until I can ascertain what exactly it MIGHT do, I'm not gonna turn it on.

Inch my way over to the desk, and examine it. Keeping an eye for anything else illuminated by my torch.

You slowly move toward the desk, with your lighter switched on, aware of the odd, almost suffocating odor. You lean over the desk, and examine it.... you see a table lamp, which is not switched on. The bulb seems to be broken. A spark from your lighter drifts down and lands on the ground, which is slick with some kind of liquid. It ignites instantly, filling the entire room with a powerful blast of white hot flame. You panic, and slip on the slick ground, and end up rolling around in the burning fluid. Unable to put out the flames, you get up and begin running to escape the room. You drop to the floor outside and try to put out the flames, but your clothes are still soaked in the burning chemical. You can't put out the flame and you scream as the flames continue to envelop you.

• Continue? (Y/N)
• Continue from which post?

[Splitpersonality]

nevermind.

[Splitpersonality]

Continue from the post right before I died.


Extinguish the flame of the lighter before examining the desk.

Extinguish the flame of the lighter before examining the desk.

Without the lighter switched on, you cannot see. However you stumble around in the darkness and feel the desk with your hands. You note that there is a lamp on this desk, and the light bulb seems to be burnt out.

You can't feel anything else on the desk.





Also, it should be noted, Split has 2 lives remaining, as per the first post:

You are granted three chances to win the game. If you die three times, you're done.

[Splitpersonality]

Remove the lightbulb from the lamp and insert the other one I have in my inventory.

Then walk to the switch by the door and turn it on.

Remove the lightbulb from the lamp and insert the other one I have in my inventory.

Then walk to the switch by the door and turn it on.

You successfully replace the bulb, and then walk back over to the light switch and turn it on. The room is now illuminated.

You can see that there are a bunch of overturned drums of some kind of flammable liquid in the southern end of the room, which you could not see before. You also see that there are four shelves in the south end of the room. The shelves are marked "Evidence 1", "Evidence 2", "Evidence 3", and "Evidence 4".

Do you keep the broken bulb?

[Splitpersonality]

For now, yes.


Examine the evidence shelves in this order.

3, 1, 2, 4.

Examine the evidence shelves in this order.

3, 1, 2, 4.

Evidence shelf 3 contains many small bags containing hair samples, fiber samples, photographs of footprints, and other similar items. There is also a small unmarked cannister on the top shelf.

Evidence shelf 1 contains a heavy metal case with a combination lock, a tool box, a pair of shoes, and a box containing file folders.

Evidence shelf 2 contains three more boxes containing file folders, and several smashed jars.

Evidence shelf 4 contains animal cages that seem to have been chewed open, and what seem to be bloody bone fragments.

[Splitpersonality]

Take the small unmarked canister, the metal case (if possible), and the tool box. Take the box with the file folders down from the shelf and put it on the desk, do the same with the 3 others.

Are the cages chewed open from the inside or outside?

Are the cages chewed open from the inside or outside?

You take the items in question, and then set the boxes filled with file folders down on the desk.

You examine the cages and determine they have been chewed open from the inside.



Split is gone for the evening. Game saved.

[Splitpersonality]

Open the boxes full of file folders and review what the folders say, if anything.

File Folder 1: Patient 34501

Recording:

EARTH HAS 17 DIFFERENT NODES, ALL OF THEM LOCATED IN PARALLEL FORMAT EQUIDISTANT FROM THE CENTER LINE, WHICH CAN BE DESCRIBED AS THE LINE BETWEEN THE MAGNETIC NORTH POLE AND THE MAGNETIC SOUTH POLE, AND THE WESTMOST POINT OF DAWN. YOU ARE DUMB AND IGNORANT IF YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND THESE NODES, THE NODES INTERSECT ALL OF THE COMPUTER CORES WHICH ARE SLAVED TO THE GREAT BEING. THIS BEING IS MUCH GREATER THAN YOUR SILLY GODS, IT WILL CONSUME YOU AND THEN FORCE YOU TO UNDERSTAND THESE NODES, THEY ARE EVERYWHERE AND I HAVE SEEN WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU TOUCH THEM, BUT THEY DONT UNDERSTAND, AND WHY SHOULD THEY???? IT IS CLEAR TO ME NOW THAT NOTHING CAN ESCAPE THE NODES, BUT IT IS FAR TOO LATE FOR THAT ANYWAY, BECAUSE YOU ARE DUMB AND IGNORANT IF YOU THINK YOU COULD EVER ESCAPE THE WRATH OF THE GREAT BEING!!! YOUR BROTHER UNDERSTANDS, BUT YOU DIDN'T LISTEN, AND THAT IS WHY HE WAS ABLE TO STEAL YOUR MAGIC BAG! INSIDE OF THIS BAG CONTAINS TREASURES AND RICHES, BUT WHO CARES ABOUT THAT ANYWAY??? ONLY DUMB AND IGNORANT PEOPLE, WHO CANNOT COMPREHEND THE NODES AND WHAT THEY TRULY MEAN!!! I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY DO, AND I WROTE IT DOWN WHERE NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO FIND IT, IN THE DARK!!! IN THE COLD, BLACK DARKNESS, WHERE THE LIGHTNING IS!!!!

I WAS JUST TELLING GEORGE THE OTHER DAY WHAT THEY MEANT, AND HE DIDN'T LISTEN

WHY DONT THEY LISTEN, THEY ARE TOO DUMB AND IGNORANT THAT IS WHY

YOU CANT UNDERSTAND SO WHY DO YOU EVEN TRY, JUST GO BACK HOME TO THAT STUPID DOG OF YOURS, WHY DONT YOU FEED IT SOME OF YOUR WORTHLESS BRAINS???

I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME, SO YOU'D BETTER WRITE ALL OF THIS DOWN! YOU'D BETTER READ IT A MILLION TIMES, TOO, OR ELSE YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THE GREAT BEING AND ITS NODES!!!

File:

Patient seems to have a persistent aggressive delusional state, and has escaped from his cell many times. The treatments seem to be taking a toll on his body. Expected mortality in 2 weeks, at current rate of starvation. Subject seems to bite handlers when allowed free from his shackles....

(the rest of the file has been redacted, and many pages are torn or missing)


File Folder 2: Patient 34601

Recording:

They're here.... I know they're coming to get me, to.... eat me alive. Only my precious, precious gun can show them.... and I will. I will show them all with my precious gun. I stole it from the evil man, and I hid it where no one would ever think to look! They won't be able to eat me, not when their brains are splattered all over the floor. They're watching me, I know they are watching me, they're always watching me! I told them to stay away.... why won't they go away, mommy? Mommy where did you go? They killed my mommy.... why.... why did they do it.... why didn't you do something about it? Why couldn't you stop them? You're not listening to me.... wait, where are you going? Don't leave me here to die.... I haven't eaten in 2 weeks, and I don't know how much longer I can last.... just let me leave, and I'll get the gun, and we can escape! There's a way, but first you have to go around the....

File:

Patient seems to have excessive paranoia. Seems to be aware of our studies, and that we are monitoring him. We cannot seem to locate the weapon he is referring to. Status of experiment is that of failure. Repeated treatments only exacerbate symptoms, so we are terminating this subject.

(That's all that is contained in this file)

It smells horrible in here..... ack.... ack.................

File:

The patient has been demonstrating bizarre transformations, and laying tiny eggs. We are not sure why this is happening, so we will be relocating him to the testing facility for further study in four days.

(That's all that is contained in this file)

File Folder 4: Patient 34801

Recording: (you hear your own voice)

I hear something.... why won't they come?

Maybe they will be coming for me soon.

Why didn't they leave me any food?

.....(end of tape)

File:

Patient has proven himself resistant to the treatments. Doesn't show signs of the other behaviors. We will increase the dosage and see what happens. Starvation may be required to keep the patient tame.

[Double A]

Patient 34501 is Michael Jackson, Patient 34601 had his gun up his, um, holster, Patient 34701 killed everyone, and Patient 34801 is Mario.

[Skooma Addict]

Interesting...hmm. It's starting to get a parasite eve feel to it now. Whomever or whatever was in those cells is out now. Finding that gun, if it exists, would be my top priority, along with getting out of there. Is there any info as to why he was locked up in the first place?

[Seon]

Or maybe one of them is us :p.

[Double A]

Yeah, I know. That means you're Mario.

[Splitpersonality]

Interesting, I cannot wait to find more out about the story behind this...

Suggestions on what to do next guys?

[Diamondeye]

It strikes me as most likely that we are the fourth patient. If the second patient really did hid a weapon, a logical conclusion would be that it is hidden in the cell opposite the one we started in.

It might be a waste of time, though.

[Chaotix]

My hypotheses:

-The subject who talks about the Nodes is actually saying something important that we won't be able to figure out until we have a lot more info. His speech is most definitely one of the pieces to the puzzle, but we have to find the rest of the pieces.

-The subject with the gun busted his cell door and escaped, then killed the chef in the hallway who was delivering his food/drugs. Then, somehow, he escaped... likely before the generator's wires were broken or else he couldn't have gotten through that door.

-He's probably dangerous and will attempt to kill Split if he meets him.

-Whatever was in the eggs that the third subject laid were placed in the cages and then chewed their way out. Which means they are probably still here somewhere.

-And if the horrible smell in this room is not the gasoline on the floor, then it's probably those things. We should check on that real soon.

-Also, if they somehow got out of the room they could've been what chewed through the wires on the control panel.

-Either way, I believe we're gonna have to deal with some creepy critters soon. Better find a weapon.

I assume we aren't a Legendary Thrower yet, so I guess chucking the bended wedge and broken hammer at them is out of the question.

[Splitpersonality]

Most likely yes.

Will post orders for this and whatever when

1) ATPG is online with me
2) I'm not tired as poop from college orientation


Your input is greatly appreciated Chaotix

Dwarf Fortress Reference for the win.

I think Chaotix' hypothesis makes sense.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I need a decision by you Split, please send in an order ASAP or I will have to relinquish your spot to someone else.

[Myrddraal]

Look under the cot in the dented cell.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Okay, it looks like I may have to replace Split.

Any takers who would promise to be active?
