Unfinished Business - Entering the DEMON Lair Report

General Summary

Members of the New Champions team traveled out to the 'abandoned' DEMON site on the outskirts of London, ON. The team included "Sandcrab", "Wildthing", and "Windwalker", along with a new introduction, "Fazer", who co-piloted Runeforce's XPlore Plane to the site.   The plane travels invisibly and landed in a field near the nondescript storm-shelter entrance to the underground lair. As the team departs, Runeforce portaled back to the main base (e.g. Homestead), making arrangements to portal equipment and other team members to the plane's location, as needed. Fazer agreed to help recon the underground caverns with Wildthing, Windwalker, and Sandcrab.   As soon as the team entered the cavern, they noticed "seeping" lights from rocks in the cave walls. The seeping rocks appeared be magical or technical, or powered somehow. Closer observation revealed glitches of humanoid and other forms visible in the light emitted by the rocks.    One of the seeping rocks emitted the form of a creature -- without feature or color, only the form of darkness. Another of the seeping rocks brought forth a monstrous demon. Windwalker's attempt to teleport further down the cavern -- and way from one of the seeping rocks -- resulted in her appearing in a prison cell, where there was a beautiful, but unconscious human-looking figure.    Sandcrab and the others, aided by the dark and formless "Ghost" he appeared from one of the seeping-rocks, faced down the monstrous demon. But as Sandcrab moved closer to explore the portion of the cave where the demon appeared -- he, too, was portaled by the light emitting from the rock into the same prison cell with Windwalker and the beautiful, unconscious creature.    Sandcrab quickly began working on their escape from the prison cell, overcoming the security system in the thick, steel barricade. But as he and Windwalker stepped through the now partially-opened prison door, the light emitting from the seeping stone steadily expanded. As the beautiful unconscious creature was bathed with the expanding light of the seeping rock, she was awakened her from a "stasis". After only a few spoken words between her and Sandcrab, the light emitting from the rock flickered and portaled her out of the cell and into the main hallway with Wildthing, Fazer, and the Ghost...leaving Sandcrab and Windwalker in the hallway outside of the prison cell, in unfamiliar territory.    The party is separated. A ghost has appeared. A demon has been subdued. And a beautiful creature has awoken and 'escaped' from her prison cell.   All the while, tormented frogs have appeared and bring about audible sounds of despair and torture to the ears and minds of Wildthing, Ghost, and Fazer.   What will the beautiful creature do? How will the team face down these unexpected threats? Will they be able to discover what is causing the light emitted from the "seeping rocks"?   Watch the video of the session below. The adventure continues on Wednesdays at 8PM Central.
