"Well cut off my legs and call me shorty!" Vern wastes no time raising his shotgun and squeezing the trigger. He'll save his shock at what he sees for later.

OOC:

Benny number 2/3 reroll.

Oh well

Added my extra damage. Looks like 13 total!

Cletus and Stanley fire their weapons and both hit the giant twenty foot great white shark. Unfortunately, the wounds they cause aren't crippling.

Crawdad swings his board but doesn't get a good wallop in.

OOC:

GWS' Parry is 7, so that's a miss. Tempted to give it a -2 Party for being out of water, but the damage done is still less than its hobble Toughness.

The scientist turned shark tries to shake off the assault.

Now mad, it tries to bite Crawdad (Shaken and a Wound) tearing a long rip out of his leg.

The shark then slides into the water.

OOC:

That is the weeniest shark bite damage, unbelievable, haha. The devil's own luck, Crawdad.

Vern tries to shoot with his shotgun but chews up aluminum from the roof of the trailer.

El Diablo Fuego is up then new Action Cards.

A Benny is spent for a reroll on the damage roll.
@Ragered you may roll for a new 'parker.

The shark bites Crawdad in half, and then drags the top half away into the water.

Dec 23, 2021 10:49 pm

OOC:

RIP Crawdad.

Vern lets out a string of curses as his roof swallows his bullet, then removes his glasses and stares at them as if they were responsible for his poor shooting. A course, he couldn't see his glasses without his glasses on. Frustrated, he puts them back on.

"Well, sheeeit. At least I'll be gettin' the bullet back." Glasses now attached he notices half of Crawdad in the water.

"What? Where is the rest of Crawdad? Didn't I tell you to watch out for them sharks, god dammit?" he asks the bottom half of the half a man.

"Oh no!" Fuego cries as the carnage suddenly amps up. There's gunfire, there's brave hand to shark tooth combat, and suddenly half of Crawdad is gone and what's left of him is twitching and spraying blood all over. It's a gruesome sight, and one that upsets the Luchador greatly.

Looking for the knife that Vern found, or bending and breaking off a piece of the satellite dish that Stanley handcuffed his briefcase to, Dave shouts, "Looks like this shark might turn out to be a fearsome foe!"

And then he hurls his sharp or makeshift weapon with all his prodigious might.

OOC:

Will spend a Benny for a reroll if it's necessary.

Dave strikes the great white with the improvised spear, and it kind of sticks out from the creature's back, but it doesn't really seem to mind all that much.

Everybody except Stanley is up before Dr. Shark. RageRed can introduce her new character however she sees fit (except, no functional boats!)

OOC:

I just realized Vern's rolls are only -2 if his glasses are lost and they are not. The tiny weird writing doncha know....

Vern can't believe his eyes when Dave's ingenious attack doesn't kill the shark. "Well ain't that a sight!"

Taking a deep breath and holding it for a second, he squeezes the trigger of his shotgun. Vern feels strongly that it's high time the shark skedaddled even if it wasn't a shark. Or was it?

The former misguided scientist turned Great White Shark explodes under the shotgun blast, and immediately begins sinking. The last thing you see is Crawdad's mangled arm giving the world the finger.

Shark is dead.

"Baby Jesus in a manger, what did we just see?" Stanley is shocked at the carnage. And once the immediate shock passed, he promptly vomits in the water at the blood and guts floating in the water. He wipes his mouth with the sleeve of a hundred dollar dress shirt. He puts the gun away with a shaking hand and sits back down. "What now? I think I'm out of ideas at the moment."

With his good hand he reaches into his lab coat and pulls out a small phone-like device with buttons, an antenna and a screen on it. Struggling to speak, he manages: "This … device … tracks the S.H.A.R.K. mutagen … you must stop them … before they reach … open sea. Stop … them."

As he turns the device on it starts to beep and blink, signaling a huge mass of red dots on the screen heading down river to open waters. The thing then suddenly blinks brighter and beeps louder as the map on the screen shifts to the ‘Parkers’ current location. That’s when Dr. Burke goes into convulsions. His body twists and morphs into a Great White Shark right before your eyes. Of course, he attacks the group!

You did have the tracker. Want to rustle up a boat, hunt sharks?

Cletus actually thought the blood and the guts to be like when you paid for a piece of bubble gum but somehow two gumballs rolled down...it might seem wrong but somehow it was also thrilling. The kid was gonna miss that spicy Cajun even if he didn't know half of what he said!

The doctor on the other hand...not so much. Really, it was turning out to be like the Walking Dead. The sharks were like zombies and you couldn't let them bite you or you would turn all sharky. Thelma! Don't let the critters bite ya or you'll get fish skin! His sister might not be so bright but she was vain!

Hey! That doctor's gadget fell in the bottom of his boat! The kid splashed over the side of the canoe scooping up the gadget, holding it aloft for everyone to see. Look at that red dot...there's a shark right past my trailer!

Dave jumps up and down, fist-pumping when Vern blows the shit out of the shark that ate the old codger. The shark that until very recently... used to be the... scientist dude with the British accent.

The wrestler sits down heavily next to Stanley and shakes his head. "I don't know man. I have no clue what's going on right now. It's like I don't even know where I am. This is crazy town! This like a bad mother--"

Cletus's bravery, quick-thinking and numbskullery shakes the man from his momentary panic.

"Wait!" he cries, standing back up. "The kid's got it! We can take the guy's boat, we can use his tracker! Let's not let Crawdad die in vain! Let's avenge that old cracker!"

Coming to the edge of the trailer, he waves towards the redheaded kid. "Cletus! Come pick us up, little dude! We'll all go shark hunting!"

Over the submerged trailer park there is suddenly heard the sound of a small engine plane. It does a fly-by and a figure rolls out of the side hatch and deploys a small rectangular canopy parachute. As the figure drops, attempting to guide the parachute in for a safe landing, the lines get caught in a nearby tree and the diver has to engage the safety release; dropping her onto the roof of one of the close by trailers.

Shucking off her harness and slamming her dive helmet into the trailer's roof, the stranger with long brown hair curses and promptly pulls out cigarette and lighter. Taking a long draw off the cigarette to calm her nerves, she adjusts the arsenal of weapons strapped about her feminine form and calls out to those atop the others trailers. "Anyone see where Dr. Burke scurried off to? I been tracking that rat bastard since he escaped from the lab. Name's Sasha." She gestures with the cigarette smoking in one hand and takes a short bow.

"Oh yea missy, we seen him. He turned into a shark and got blowed up," Vern says to the newcomer, nodding nonchalantly like it's an everyday occurrence.

Here's what I think will be a funny bit. If any of you have watched a reality TV show, there is this Confession Booth segment, where the actor/contestants confess what they are thinking in the moment.

How about everyone do that, write a post like you're talking into the camera for an audience, after the fact.

"You know, I don't know what I had a harder time believing, the scientist turning into a shark or a gun-strapped babe parachuting down into the flooded trailer park looking for said scientist. It's like some real-world episode of Street Sharks. Remember that cartoon? It was fucking awesome. As a cartoon anyway. Real life is much different. That mealy-mouthed old geezer found that out getting chomped in half. Couldn't show something like that on a kids' show, no way. The rest of the survivors are all right. The luchador is pretty amusing when he isn't trying to impress the meth lady. I wouldn't say I wanted any of them to die, per se, but I mean, if you're asking me to pick who should survive, it'd be me obviously. My stock portfolio alone is more valuable than whatever these people owned combined."

"Hey that was cool!" the Luchador shouts across the water at the newcomer. Pointing, he continues, "With the plane? And the jumping? And now like lighting up like nothing even happened? Too cool!"

[ +- ] Dave in the Confessional

"DO YOU HAVE SOME EXTRA GUNS?" El Diablo Fuego yells louder. "GUNS WORK GOOD AGAINST THESE SHARKS! THEY MIGHT BE MUTANT SHARKS, BUT THEY AREN'T LIKE BULLETPROOF AND DON'T HAVE A HEALING FACTOR LIKE WOLVERINE!" Thinking for a moment, the hairy-armed man finishes with, "SO... YEAH. GUNS WORK GOOD! WE GET A COUPLE AND WE'LL CLEAN UP THE WHOLE HOOD! ALSO YOUR HAIR LOOKS NICE, FOR LIKE JUST HAVING JUMPED OUT OF A PLANE."

Forgive me for this characterization, all women everywhere, and especially those in this game. ;)
