( closed ) mystery transmission

who: James T. Kirk, Leonard McCoy, Poe Dameron, Beverly Crusher, Loki
what: an exploratory mission in search of a vessel
when: from July 10th to July 20th
where: abandoned area, along the river, the delta and waterfalls; between the first and second walls
warnings: monster attacks, probably some injuries/blood, don't expect anything more than that; add any needed warnings on your own threads as needed, please!


After a transmission tower in the Abandoned City was repaired following the storm a few months ago, the Perimeter Guard radio center has been picking up a continuous eerie transmission that sounds like a combination of a sonar ping and a staticky voice saying a long series of seemingly random numbers. The transmission has been tracked to its source, which seems to be some sort of vessel that's under one of the many waterfalls in the delta area of the Abandoned City. It is not known if it is easily accessible or if caving will be required to reach it.

The objective is to follow the signal to its source with specialized equipment and find out whether it is a distress signal, an important piece of abandoned technology, or something else entirely. Besides the usual environmental dangers of traveling for several days by land into the Abandoned City, including monsters and other dangers, there is heavy speculation that whatever is sending the signal is super haunted. Additionally, some caving may be required to reach the signal source.

Blinking in some disbelief, Beverly stars at Loki's snake form. Well, all right then. Why didn't they just send him down first, if he could do that and light his own way? Well, what's done is done now, she guesses.

"You're okay. That's definitely Loki," she reassures Poe.

Then she looks at Leonard. "We might be here a while while we wait for them. Might not be a bad idea to set up camp." More importantly, it'll give them something to do, keep Leonard from worrying too much.

"It's not me, he's coming to eat you. Better move fast!"

Slithering his way down the line, he waits until both men have detached and slides to the ground, tasting the air. His magical lights continue to float overhead, dimmer now with him having shapeshifted but still persistent above the explorers.

"This place is more stale than a Starbucks post-weekend leftovers."

"That is the best idea I've heard all day." Grumbling softly, he really wasn't as sour as he made out to be. It served more as a front to get past the worry and not think about Jim lord knows how many feet under ground in darkness. "Since they made it in one piece, probably best we get that done and just say alert."

Breathing in slowly, he turned his attention back to the comm and addressed the team below. "While you're down there havin' the time of your lives, why don't ya look for another way into the cavern at the same time. Might prove useful."
