"ok Ill take Rachel and Jeremy and collect any survivors along the way ,
just be quick, make sure you get strolek and good luck guys!"

**Shas'ui T'au Kais**

"Thanks, I hope we won't need it. Coming to ya Ray."

**darksage**

"My name is James. Ray was the name the Conclave branded me. Sorry but Varz, I'll move faster on my own. I can use invisibility to get past most creatures I meet. Gaz and Rach could use you. I need to get there now if I have any hope of getting out in time. James out." I activate invisibility and get moving to where West is.

**Shas'ui T'au Kais**

"Godammit! Gaz, Rachel, get out! I am not gonna let James be the hero now and get killed. See you on the other side. Varz out."

**Mordoskul**

As James pushes the broken door open, he grunts with the effort, breathing a sigh of relief as it finally gives way. Locating the lift to the Safe Zone, he ascends, keeping his finger on the trigger of his rifle. As the lift comes to a stop, he steps inside, surprised to find West standing next to Strelok, along with the Lazarus Guard already assembled. "I heard the message over the com, we're ready to finally leave this place." As they walked about the now lit hallways, a terrifying roar sounded through the corridor, a roar that James remembered vividly. Carnifex lumbered down the hall, running on it's knuckles like an ape, bellowing a challenge. The Lazarus Guard open fire as the two scientists run for cover, their shots failing to pierce it's bony plating. Leaping back, James fires his anti-material rifle through the remnants of one of the monster's eyes. blowing chunks of brain matter and bone through the back of it's skull. Carnifex charges blindly, knocking down the Guard like children's toys, trampling several underneath it's pulverizing fists. Backed into a corner, the huge mycomorphs grabs James, lifting the sniper above it's head, making to tear him in half. Howling in pain, a desperate idea takes hold in his mind. Shoving the barrel of the anti-material rifle into the hole he created, James fired twice, bursting Carnifex's like a rotten melon, scattering bone chunks and meat about the room. Dropping James, the creature flailed wildly about, smashing into walls with it's massive fists. Taking the opportunity, the survivors fled, making to rejoin the rest of the team.

After days of endless terror, the black fog of dread begins to lift, and a sliver of hope fills your hearts as you make for the Primary Gate, giddy with excitement. Gaz takes point, tearing a group of Vivisectors in half with his ripsaw as he runs onwards. Rachel and Jeremy dismantle a Centipede, hacking it's segments apart with their weapons as it momentarily blocks their path. After several minutes of running, Varz enters the same corridor, his face streaked with joyful tears, laughing as he joins you. James, West, Strelok, and the Lazarus Guard blast their way through hordes of the once-men, their bodies shredded by their focused firepower. Reaching the lobby, the Primary Gate blows inwards, scattering debris as it does so, and allowing for a handful of yellow-clad UN troops to enter the Facility, waving you on to the transport nearby. As your feet crunch through the thick layer of Canadian snow, and you gaze at the sky for the first time in days, you give a shout of triumph. Your laugh is cut short by a bowel-slackening howl torn from thousands of deformed throats. In a single roiling mass, the mycomorphs spill into the snow, their hungry jaws snapping at the surprised UN soldiers, their screams drowned by the maddening howl. As the pilot shouts for you to 'get on the f*cking bird!' you rush onboard, firing at the horrors that even now approach your position at an alarming pace. As Varz enters the dropship, the shuttle lifts off, slowly making it's way into the atmosphere. As the great steel doors begin to close, a sinewy, noose-like tongue wraps itself around his neck, pulling him backwards. Rachel attempts to sever the tongue with her knife, but yet another lasso entraps his leg, yanking him from the transport, dragging him back towards the Facility over the snow. He reaches out, clawing at the ground as the lynchers reel him in, his screams not of terror, but of rage, to have come so far only to have his life ended a hairsbreadth from salvation. The pilot shouts down your protests, retrieving Varz would end in the death of the rescue force, better one die than all of them. As the doors slam shut with awful finality, the pilot swears. Several matte-black ships marked with a great winged shield have arrived firing wildly upon the fleshy tide, sending plumes of bone and meat raining down upon the snow. As your ships swerves to avoid oncoming fire, the Conclave ships drop down, releasing scores of black-armored soldiers that charge with Facility with no care for their own lives. A voice warbles from the ship's com, telling the pilot to flee. Suddenly, a beam of impossibly bright light crashes down upon the Facility, punching a hole through the roof and boring into the crust. Waves of radiation turn any biological matter to jelly as their molecules are broken down. Your ship is nearly knocked out of the air by the aftershock, tossing it about like a rag-doll. You grip the side-rail, holding on for dear life as the dropship makes it's escape.

After several hours of silence, you finally touch down at an out of the way landing pad, surrounded by other UN troops. You step onto the ground, your feet leaden and dead. Your gaze is blank as you are prodded into a nearby tent. Inside sits a man wearing the uniform of a colonel, he prompts you to sit down. "Tell me everything you know about the Lazarus Facility."

A WORD FROM MORDO

I've had the idea for Laz in my head for a while now, I wanted, nay, NEEDED to run a roleplay involving the Lazarus Facility. Dakka gave me the platform to do so. I would like to thank each and every one of my players for making this thread the wonder that it is today, allowing me to tear them into bloody gobbets with flavor text without a complaint. Now that Laz is over, I'd like to pause and reflect. What was your most memorable experience? Also, if you would be so kind, write out a sort of epilogue for your character, how did they deal with the Lazarus Affair? Do they have nightmares or mental disorders because of it? That last part will be VERY important in Drowning in Darkness, so be clear. Oh, one more thing! Those of you with a character still alive at the end of the game ought to put "Survivor of the Lazarus Affair" in your sig, you earned it.

Cheers,

Mordo

James would have had nightmares, if he could even sleep. The beast, Dez, Varz. All ran endlessly through his mind. He thought back the those days still. Not with sadness though, with hate. He knew one thing, he wouldn't be able to sleep, not until one man was dead, no, not a man, a voice. James got reinstated into the UN and continued to fight for the cause, hoping one day to be able to just have one shot at the man who ruined his life, after all, one shot was all he needed.

This should be good....

(This is all OOC: Anyone seen Rango?? Last bit of James' epilogue made me think of that... Should I still write an epilogue?? Even though I'm not playing as Rachel for the sequel?)

Gaz after wards didnt think abouts the whole afair,
or as little as he could manage.
but when he did think about it, it was almost always about Dez.
they had grown close they had saved each others lives a few times.
