Event | Satellite | Spectres!
Characters: Any and all!
Date: May 23 - 26, 2013
Location: Keeliai, turtleside, ARSHEPHELIOS cluster remains
Situation: Repairs and salvage operations operating innocently have triggered an invasion of spectres that possess and wreak havoc upon all they see.
Warnings/Rating: Please put CW in your subject lines
Satellite Crash Event
Crash Landing | Salvage Party | Shocking Spectres
Questions | Keeliai | ARSHEPHELIOS
Salvage is sweet, but not all is well on board the ARSHEPHELIOS cluster. The seamless cylinders salvaged from debris and the cluster, now being frequently traded, turn out to be pods the first time one is penetrated or cracked open. Each breached pod releases a flood of energy-based apparitions hellbent on world domination -- or, more accurately, person domination (and it's not the fun kind).
These apparitions -- spectres, if you will -- are driven by a need to protect the technology of the satellite cluster that their pods are associated with. They will stop at nothing to see this through. Each is immune to physical attacks, but seem to be injured or dissipated entirely by things like electrical shock or other energy-based projections. If people touch them, there is also a brief window of vulnerability, but it acts also like a door that swings both way. Through contact, these spectres can and will invade one's psyche, take over their body and cause them to attack friend or foe alike! Should the possessed body be subjected to sufficient electrical shock, the possession should fade. Strong natural will can also drive the spectres out, but it is no walk in the park to do so. Possession is not the only tool in the arsenal, for these spectres use electricity as their main offensive weapon. They'll leave deep-tissue burns on anyone they fight, and show no degree of fatigue after constant use of it.
Ten thousand of these creatures will be freed from pods, resulting in a veritable flood of Keeliai, the turtleside, and the satellite cluster. With such a driven enemy, it comes down to killing or being killed.
Meanwhile, those taking shelter indoors may notice that the spectres will get into the biomechanical functions of Keeliai. Consoles will be malfunctioning during this time, with lines of mysterious code and strange, ghostly images. One might hear people screaming for help or hours of patchy radio static.

In the middle of all this? [ She steps forward as she says it, trying to move casually within arm's reach under the pretense of concern. ]
no subject
[ she tilts her head a little uncannily, with a challenging expression - You wanna go? ]
Do you disagree?
no subject
[ She holds out a hand, palm up, for Molly to take. It's worth a try. ] Come with me.
no subject
And once she has hold of her hand, she yanks, with the intent of pulling Natasha off her feet and sending her rolling down the street. ]
no subject
She rolls herself into a limp ball, ducks her head so she doesn't hit it when she lands... and that's about all she can do. She tumbles down the street, and stumbles to her feet a little shakily. ] Okay... We can do this the hard way.
no subject
It feels easy enough to me. [ The specter grins a little and picks up a large piece of rubble from one of the destroyed buildings and throws it towards Natasha as easily as she would a baseball, with just about as much force. ]

no subject
[ The specter grins, lifting another large chunk of building and advancing before throwing it. ]
Do you really think you can best someone this powerful?
no subject
You underestimate me.
no subject
You cannot touch me, and you cannot match me. This is fact. How do I underestimate you?
no subject
[ What she doesn't know is how long it takes for Molly to wind down when she's powered up... but she's going to find out soon. Hopefully not by having her skull cracked open. ]
no subject
Which, of course, was its mistake.
As it reaches for a third piece of rubble, it wobbles. ]
What...? [ It wobbles again, eyes drooping, and then the glow in Molly's eyes and the faint aura around her goes out as she collapses. She'll be dead to the world for at least the next half hour. ]
no subject
[ Most people would probably hesitate before electrocuting a twelve-year-old. Natasha doesn't, just triggers her widow's bite, waits a moment to make sure the spectre's not going to materialize and attack in its own form, and then reaches down to check the girl's pulse in her throat. It's a little fast, but regular, and Natasha relaxes almost imperceptibly as she gathers Molly into her arms. ]
You and I are going to have a talk about acceptable risk when you wake up.
no subject
Tommy will be grateful for Natasha keeping an eye on Molly, definitely. ]
