Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
Heading onward, past the now-opened door, you see a room before you. It's a somewhat stouter room and all its walls are rusted metal. The roof is only a few feet above your head numerous dripping sounds come from all directions within the room. Small water droplets seem to fall from all around, creating what looks to be rusty stalagmites. At the center of the room, there's a big red button on a control panel, though the whole thing seems to have suffered much from water damage. There appear to be no other doors in the room, or any living creatures for that mater. Just the sound of water droplets in their never-ending fall.
Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
Blitz looked at the button on the control panel. "...On the one hoof, this is an obvious trap. On the other hoof, there is most likely no other way to proceed. Brace yourselves, comrades. If I had to guess, our next foe will be water-based." Blitz winced a bit as he pressed the button.

"A big red button, how classic," was all Wandering Eye managed to say before Blitz pushed the button.

Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
Pressing the button causes an area around the control panel to raise extremely slowly. Everyone has more than enough time to get on and it is large enough to accommodate everyone. At the same time the sound of old rusted valves being opened fills the room and moments later water starts to fill up the room lucky it never surpasses the height of the platform. When both the water and the platform reach their maximum levels a hatch opens in the ceiling dropping a cube of dried material into the water. Its effects are immediately evident the water turns a putrid purple and becomes as thick as tar also in a few places eyes and mouths can be seen forming.

"Ah, if only everything here wasn't trying to eat us or poison us or goo all over us. What else can you expect from a mad scientist? What I wouldn't give for more straightforward traditional combats, like with those 'kobold' creatures!"
Hussar paced around the platform, trying to keep an eye on the oozing water around them.

Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
Maretoko suddenly starts glowing before he disappears. In his place stands a brown-furred earth pony, wearing a yellow uniform and, perhaps more noticably, a visor covering his face. He pulls out a strange device and holds it up to his head.
"Captain, if the transporters are malfunctioning, you know you're supposed to call me first."
No response.
"Captain?"
There doesn't appear to be any reception. The pony pulls out a laser gun and sets it to "stun".
"If this is a holodeck prank it is not very amusing."

Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
Hussar saw Maretoko disappear- hopefully back to wherever she came from. Who knew what prompted the scientist to switch her out, but luckily for them- unluckily for whoever replaced her- there was indeed a replacement to fight alongside them. He jumped in front of the newcomer, exposing his whole body, with still-shining armour covered in red and white cloth, adorned by the large wings, presenting himself as a target to whatever was going to appear from out of the oozing water (or the water itself) so that the newcomer could get their bearings. Luckily, they seemed to have the presence of mind to ready a weapon of some sort.
"Not much time to explain- you've been abducted by a mad scientist who seeks out powerful adversaries to test his twisted creatures against. Something unpleasant is surely about to attack us momentarily. We can talk more after we win this fight."

Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
"What?! Where did..." Wandering Eye shook his head. No time for confusion. "Never mind, introductions can come later! Like Hussar said, we may be under attack at any moment." Hopefully the new arrival could handle himself as well as Maretoko.
Meanwhile, he concentrated, drawing the power of the Beyond into his horn and into himself - and from whatever was in the water.

Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
When Blitz hits the Smooze the portion of the goo that was hit by the energy of the beyond gets set flying onto the platform. Right before the entiry starts to move the previous bolt that Proto shot explodes. Then as if in retaliation for the strong hammer blow it shoots a blob of acidic goop onto Blitz's face. Somehow the pool is still rippling from the explosive bolt.

Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
[Ack, I toooootally forgot both the hound, and the posting of stats after my action!]
From seemingly out of nowhere, the twisted, eyeless black hound appeared, taking a nip out of the group's foe before retreating to a defensive position.

Re: The Overseer's Challenge IC
Blinded by the Smooze, Blitz tries to hit the large blob again, but only manages to slam the ground next to it. However, he is able to wipe the gunk off of his face, and his lightning shield would hopefully make the Smooze think twice before attacking him.

Unfortunately the goo manages to redirect the energy into the area bitten by the hound. Then it manifests a fist and slams it into Wandering Eye.
