"What the?... You hear that, Esko?" he says sitting up.

He rummages in his rucksack to grab the flashlight, that he switches on, pointing it at the ceiling and to the room below.

"Eh? Whats that?" Esko asks groggily. He grabs his phone and turns on the light upon hearing the sounds from outside.

"Maybe a bear?" Esko moves to the window and tries to see what he can by the light of his phone.

OOC:
There is no window on the mezzazine. From up there you don't see much in the windows on the room below either.
Dalvin flips on the flashlight. You see a spill of blood dripping to the mezzazine form somewhere on the roof. You turn the flashlight to the room below and see a bigger puddle of blood dripping form the ceiling to the centre of the room. Something is moving in the midst of the blood. Crouching and trembling.

Then something drops to your arm: a giant leech. It's about 5 to 8 inches long and crawls fast.

Suddenly you both notice they seem to be everywhere.
OOC:
Roll your insight / Insanity die. A 1d6 roll, both of you are at level 1. If you roll higher than 1 add 1 to your Insanity level and roleplay your fear. If you roll 1 you keep your cool and can do something rational.

OOC:
rolling first
Dalvin starts shouting, shaking his arm frantically. "Get it off meeee!!! What is this thing??? They're everywhere!!!"

"Ugh...what the hell..." Esko slaps the slithering worms off and and stomps on it before it wriggles off. He grabs the leech off Dalvin and hurls it against the wall, saying "Pull it together, Arnarson! Lets get the others.".

Esko climbs down and makes his way towards the door, carefully avoiding the center of the room, while shouting "Everyone up, we need to get out of here."

Greta comes too, groggy from a deep sleep, all around her is shouting and flashing lights. She tries to make out what is going on as she turns on her own light

Mikko dreams of watching his brother eating raw bird meat.
"Stop! You're going to get sick from that." He wants to say. But his voice is muffled and choked as though something wriggles in his mouth. Then the shouting and commotion disrupt his sleep.

He wakes to see the writhing things in the blood pool on the floor illuminated by irregular sweeps of Esko's light.
OOC:
Habit of putting in 2d6 for PbtA games. Going off the first roll of 2
Mikko recoils in the bed, pulling his sleeping bag up around him for protection.
OOC:
Can Mikko see anything threatening outside through the windows?

These things are already downstairs crawling over Greta and Mikko too. When Greta turns the light on she also sees these leeches, some of them have already bitten her legs and they suck and try to crawl under the skin.
OOC:
Greta can also roll for Insanity.

Mikko gags with revulsion. He brushes violently at these things that slither across and cling to his skin. He leaps out of bed, shaking and stomping, trying to fling these things away, perhaps rushing over to help Greta.
OOC:
Feels like Mikko is trying to do something, to get these things off of him. I'm going to roll, please ignore if I'm going too fast with the mechanic.

Seeing, and feeling the leeches burrowing under her skin, Greta starts shrieking for help.

"YIEEEEE! YIEEEEE! HELP ME! OH MY GOD HELP ME, THEY ARE EATING ME! F#@K THEY HURT!"
OOC:
She tries pulling them out, and off, her body

Esko having reached the floor sees Greta struggling with the leeches and makes his way to the kitchenette. "Greta over here," Esko shouts and turns on the hot plate before searching the cabinet for a knife or screwdriver.
OOC:
Esko wants to try and pry the plywood off the window, or help Greta if she can make her way over to him. Not sure if the hot plate would heat up fast enough to burn the leeches, but his next action would depend what he finds in the cabinet.
Jan 8, 2024 4:11 pm
"YIEEEEE! YIEEEEE!" Greta continues shrieking as she hurries over to Esko, still trying to pull the leeches off her skin as she goes, the light from her phone wobbling about the room as she runs.

Mikko gets the things off of himself but doesn't really have a chance to help Greta as she flies past him screaming.

Esko gets the hot plate fired. It's an old thing and it'll probably take time to heat it up but at least there is power.
OOC:
Esko can make a luck roll with a d6 to search the kitchenette.
Jan 9, 2024 3:53 pm
OOC:
Yeah, I am not so sure about this whole "hot plate" approach. My limited knowledge of leeches is that salt gets them off, but I don't think Greta will know that or anything else about them. So she'll go with Esko's suggestion.

Can she get them off her while they are waiting?

"You OK up there, Dalvin?" Mikko asks. He grabs his shoes and puts them on at a frantic pace as he looks around.
OOC:
Is there a hole in the ceiling with these things pouring in?
Jan 10, 2024 3:31 pm
OOC:
Mikko sees that the creatures come from the ceiling and there might be several holes because they seem to come from different directions.
Jan 10, 2024 3:33 pm
OOC:
Greta manages to shake the first leeches off but other hungry creatures are following.
Jan 10, 2024 3:35 pm
What about Dalvin, are you also coming down?
Jan 10, 2024 3:52 pm
OOC:
If she has all the leeches off on her own then she'll skip the hot plate treatment and aim to get out of the cabin. Shoes and coat on of course.
