Turn! it is late, so you may find errors. Report them so that tomorrow i can fix everything.
Since now you are barely interacting with each other, i dropped partial narrative, but it will come back when it will be needed.
Next turn some more people will be left in the darkness. i suggest you do something for the light.
I try to break the ice and escape from this room
|You are a thermal wizard, a small block of ice can’t block you. You channel the powerful forces of your mind into the surrounding air, drain their heat. These blocks must not be just melted, but annihilated You start the process, but you did it wrong: you are not draining heat, you are giving it away!
|You stop after you start shivering and
|Luckily get no damage.
| Despite your efforts, Fuel around your feet melts anyway.
I try to make my RIGHT ARM normal again by magic.
|The force comes back again when you call it, But you can’t find the correct balance. Adding tissue is easy, but that is not what you want. But how to use that force as a destructive force? And what would happen if you let too much of it enter? At the end, you do such a poor job that nothing comes out of it. You however feel that you are on the right way to understand this magic.
go hide(find?) some others, pick up anything of use on the way
|Time to go. But before that, you decide to go looking in a nearby crate. It is locked, but you have a massive hand which still has to be tested. You hit strongly and
|It explodes! There must have been leftover explosives from the building of the place in that crate. Weakened by age luckily, but still enough to harm you.
| You barely have time to shield your face with your hands, when a shockwave hits you
| but is too weak to do much more than moving your hair. Maybe it wasn’t explosive after all… more like a big balloon of compressed air.
try to get the ability to see in the dark by holding the monolith and focusing hard
| You touch the monolith, feel the power in its “skin”. There is only you and monolith now, everything else is void, white, black, light, darkness. Then an explosion happens, a big bang is heard, matter sprays outside, the universe itself expands faster than light. You see every little quark, proton, electron forming. You observe the short lasting war between matter and antimatter, You see the first clouds of gas, the stars start shining, quasars, galaxies; milky way, your sun, your planet, you fall down, down, to observe all that ever happened there, and everywhere. In the time of a second, you understand everything about the universe!
No, thinking it doesn’t make it happen. Worth trying anyway. The idea of getting magic from a purely technological objects may seem a waste of time, but there may be something in the monolith to create magic-like effects, right?
Well, there isn’t. either that or the monolith doesn’t want to share knowledge, or is too dead to do so.
Concentrate all my mental energy on blowing the door open
|Examining the alloy of the steel, it seem to you that the steel of the door can be magnetized . With a bit of control on magnetic fields, you may force it open. Same thing goes for an electrical charge. But despite your efforts, you don’t manage to do anything. Maybe it is time for something more physical?
Kashyyk :I cause the walls to shift and grab hold of C-shyyk, causing the imposter to be immobile |
Coffee-shyyk :Use sleep toxins against Kashyyk|
Again, there are punches flying, and Kashyyk barely holds the ground. C-shyyk prepares for the final blow, he takes a syringe of sleep toxins and throws it at Kashyyk! But Kashyyk rises a mind barrier, the shot is deflected. The rocket powered sleepy chainsaw ( remember, your mind) strikes C-shyyk and injects it! Cage starts to fade as you go back to reality. C-shyyk will sleep as long as there are sleep toxins, and will live as long as there is caffeine.
Background roll :5 Despite a general lack of things to see, Ram notices that fuel is evaporating, and vapors are healthy, while Flintus sees some kind of vegetation growing in front of the door.

LOCATIONS
The building in which you started
Vat room : the room you started in. it has several vats and machinery connected to them. Only your ones are empty, the other have dead and rotten corpses in them. On the ground there are some flashlights, -1 to moving until removed.
Corridor : a corridor leading from a door in the Vat room toward the exit, it has 4 doors on the sides, one of which open
exit stairs: some stairs at the end of the corridor which go upward to the exit. At the end of them there is a sturdy steel door, few centimeters open but blocked. There is some light coming from the door
Storage room: a largish room with several crates in it. It looks like it was meant to hold more than that
Lounge: it is some kind of a lounge, that was probably also used as dining room. It has some tables, chairs, a TV, some computers in the opposite wall, probably for personal use, and a coffee selling machine in a corner.
Generator room: a big room with a ceiling higher than that of the other rooms you have seen till now. There are cables everywhere on the floor, there are shelves, tools, the floor is dirty but the first thing you see is the machine that fills the room from the center to the back. It is made of turbines and graphite chambers, it is a nuclear power plant, very small actually. there is a smaller generator in the room, that should be able to partially power the building. there are 4 fuel tanks on the floor. Some wires are exposed and the room is covered by fuel.
bedroom: There are 6 beds on each side of the room, for a total of 24 beds, everything in perfect order: blankets, pillows… for whatever reason they abandoned this place, it was planned. Or somebody wanted to cancel any proof or fight… there is no way to know. The air is moist, there is some water on the floor. The people who lived there probably had a way to humidify the air underground, and during the years a pipe must have broken, releasing some water; the piping must be broken in some other places since it didn’t flood the place: probably the pumps stopped working, or the water tanks evaporated. Why would people live here? This place must have been either very secret or very important to force workers to live in their workplace, possibly using work shifts to keep people working all the day and night, or were they prisoners? You can only guess what this place was, but maybe people left something behind them that could help you to understand. there is a diary on a bed, damaged by the (years?) and moist air
Control room: A big room with computers on all the sides, maps on the walls, blueprints, desks, notes and chairs ,paper bins that were never emptied, even some chewing gum on the floor(maybe RAM would like it?) a control room of some kind. There are 4 doors, including the one you entered from.
On a wall, the map of the building
Monolith dissection: At the center there is a … thing, a black, extremely flat, non-reflective cuboid whose dimensions are in the precise ratio 1:4:9. On its side it has a surprisingly neat and clean hole, much better than anything you could do with standard methods on standard materials. Inside, there is a great mass of electronic devices, the functions of most of them unknown not only by even the brightest minds on this world. It is put on some kind of huge operatory table, with wires connecting both inside and outside the black monolith. There are many computers on the wall, but all powered down, of course. Above the hole in the monolith, magnifying lenses, robotic arms with various tools and several other measuring instruments can be seen, used in the past to examine the monolith’s interiors, in an attempt to reduce danger of humans damaging something, despite it having shown to be nearly indestructible when needed.
