Case 1: Victims at the park

Seth takes a careful shot and the bullet goes so cleanly through the spider it almost doesn't seem to be affected, but then its legs spread out and the guts begin to spill out as if it were a liquid in a cup and the cup suddenly had 2 big holes in it

Meg wipes the bug's guts off of herself and uneasily stands. She takes off the armor and gives it back to Seth. "This turned bad fast. We need to get out of here. Ajay, do you think the little ones carry venom glans?"

"It definitely did. I agree that we need to beat feet here and quickly."Seth takes the armor and puts it back on, then walks over to Ajay and hefts the man on his shoulders, careful not to jostle him too much. "Margaret, help Ajay get to the van, he is not looking good. Let's get back to the infirmary as soon as possible. We could all use some patching up."

The man seems to be unconscious, but color is very slowly returning to his face as the anti venom does it's job

Ajay grunted as he stood up and slumped over Meg's shoulder in order to support his body. He sure had some bad bruises because he could feel pain all over his body. Worse there can be some bone cracks too. He fell from the tree after all. "I think the small ones can have venom glands but they are mostly non functional. Seth, get the man too. He would need some medical care. I think we cleared this nest at least. Let's get back to the van and rest up in the Infirmary. I am pretty sure, we need a day off from the mission. We are too injured to come out the next day."

OOC: Can I investigate a mystery just to know more about this creature or will it not be possible now? I just want to know "What can hurt them?" question.

Ooc: Ok, lets get back to the Infirmary and rest up.

You pick up the man and make sure to grab his camera, deleting any photo that looks to have the blurry monster in it. You get back to Ajay's haven fine.

Ajay returned to the Infirmary and started to work with everyone. His own body was aching badly, and an X-Ray showed a minor crack in one of the ribs. Bad news for him, but staple thing for this job. He started to extract and formulate the next batch of anti-venoms while taking the photographer to bed and attaching a type IV fluid with nutrient solutions and normal saline. He added a sedative to it, to give the guy a very good sleep and then pondered over a psychotropic mixture which he also administered. Once the vitals were stable, he let the the man sleep.

Coming back to his friends, he bandaged and gave a pain suppressant to Seth along with a mild sedative. "Seth, I know you won't like it, but I am giving you a mild sedative. Your body needs to relax and a good sleep won't hurt. We earned a rest. You would wake up fine after six hours."

Finally, he checked on Meg and provided the necessary medical care to her. "I have a minor cracked rib. Perhaps, climbing up the tree was not a good idea after all. It hurts so much. I guess, some magical healing will be good (he teased her jokingly). But anyway, I am too tired to think about anything. I can't sit up straight for more than ten minutes. I would like to rest and take a nap. Watch the Infirmary okay; if you feel bored watch something on the computer or if you are hungry order something. Wake me up when Seth or the photographer wakes up." He took some more tablets and swallowed it with water before lying down on the couch.

OOC: So, staying in the Infirmary will heal all the wounds or will it require a roll? I mentioned magical healing to Meg because I think narratively a cracked rib will take 3 weeks to heal but with magical healing I am guessing it will heal quickly. I don't want Meg to roll, it is just how I will be healed quickly if Infirmary does heal all wounds. As for the photographer, I gave some psychotropic drugs and sedated him so that we will convince that he blacked out in the street and some good samaritan brought him to me and I have provided care before letting him go. He will probably forget his traumatic encounter with the spider swarm. Also Seth, I don't want to force the sedative on you if you don't want to take a nap. Tell me and we will change it if necessary.

OOC: Unbeknownst to both Seth and Margaret, Ajay has lore library. We can rp there, where I take both Seth and Margaret and show them my second haven. I would say that it's a book shop run by a very old couple who mostly collects books and maintains a library where people can come and read. Ajay helped Mr. and Ms. Moore during a medical emergency and they have become almost like a family to him. They are aware of the supernatural and stay clear from them however their collection of tomes and text is top notch. Researching there will give us +1 forward. So, we can take a day of and get fully healed while we are doing the research on how to hunt this final source.

Mags heads into the bookstore next door. She searches for any books of lore on the Spider-Shepard. I am looking for a way to fully kill it.
