You can't, this room is a dead end, i'll post the main chamber again.
The cavern seems to have been carved out of the rock, it is huge, and roughly circular, with a large opening at the other end, to there is a narrow stone staircaise skirting one side of the cavern leading down. the party can also see another staircase leading up to a ledge from the cavern floor, and a ledge in the wall opposite with a door on it but no stairs up or down. there are no handrails anywhere. There is a small entrance directly below the staircase into the wall under the staircase. (You are here)

Tson Ok lets go left sends drone down that way

May_the_Harpy
Can you be more specific, sorry, look at

Tson

for information on what the main chamber looks like.

DocSlime

Tson (Is the party still in the stasis field or not? If not, Hexer withdraws from the event.)

Tson

DocSlime
they technically are, but i think this event is dead, i may carry on the event in another thread with the people who are still playing, what do you think?

Tson

Catplayz @May_the_Harpy DocSlime @Gladiaxa ,

May_the_Harpy

Hexer is severely wounded and can't walk, so he decides to call in an escort and magjump or FTL-jump him to the Citadel. Turns out, he destroyed it a few times already, so he asks U66 to call in escorts only to find out that 66 forgot his own transmitter as well. Hexer then takes his gun and shoots the mantle a few times, causing an alert in the Citadel with "an attack on the Leader". The mantle is unharmed. After mere seconds, a squad of Glitchers and a bunch of Glitcher-droid abominations fused by Fractality appear in the cave with a familiar FTL flash. Thankfully, the Fractality is reasonable enough to make its hosts look more humanoid, and only 3 out of 9 abominations lack or have extra limbs or organs. The "clean" Glitchers take Hexer and U66 and FTL-jump away with the same flash. The Fractality here is a governmental genome which is about 0,0000000000000000000000000000000000000000006% contagious.
"Leader!" -whispers one abomination.
"Yes?"
"Our Pope has committed unintended suicide!"
"Suicide? You meant sacrifice?"
"No, suicide! He choked when speaking to an enraging human! The hivemind never lies, my Leader!"
"Very well, I'm sure someone will become the next Pope of yours quite soon."
Hexer's tone of voice is that of speaking to infested babies that vomit everywhere.

@Catplayz @May_the_Harpy @DocSlime @Gladiaxa ,

@Catplayz @May_the_Harpy @Gladiaxa ,

So, to not disrupt the rp in the other thread I went here, I have been thinking and made a character and wanted to ask if it would be valid for your storylines(Tson), does not contain any specific stats yet.

Terr´Noc Chalcantine Warlord (Copy)
A Mothlike humanoid creature wearing it´s wings like a royal mantle, he is black with occassional red stripes.
Originally evolved into a Bishop he is taller and stronger than the average due to his connection with the Cult.
He was a part of the court until it broke apart from that point on he traveled the unverse hidden from other peoples sight, what would he seek in a place like this...?
It does not seem that it is the original Terr´Noc more likely a genetical copy with slightly less capabilities.

DG: High
SG: Medium-High
FS: Due to him not using any firearms his FS is basically non-existent though his few ranged attacks seem to be rather accurate.

Equipment:
-Akrulvas(Halberd)(Replica)(Special, shares DG with user, absorbs DG from enemies depending on dealt damage)
-Hardened Chalcantine Wings(more likely a bodypart, said to be hardened in similar ways as bloodarmor, Special: Damage reduction, low Fire res)

Passive Skills:
-Fighting Spirit: SG up if Enemies outnumber the own "team"
-Cunning Mind: SG up and able to retreat quickly in case of attacking enemies which are unaware of his presence
-Infernal Wrath: Increases SG and Damage reduction for every 10% DG lost
-Bloodfrenzy: Should DG fall below 10% the unit will attack a random target in proximity (including friendly fire)
instead of taking normal actions. SG up.

Special Skills:
-Bloodspikes: A ranged attack which shoots a volley of bloodspikes dealing moderate damage, has a chance to corrupt or cripple an enemy, uses part of the DG as "ammo".
-More depending on situation, as long as reasonable, all of them at the cost of DG though.

This is kind of a raw outline of the Character that I would use, you might also understand now why I usually do not join as my characters have a tendency to be borderline to gamebreaking. I tried to balance him somehow by making him essentially a clone of the original one, resulting in lower stats and capabilities, aswell he´s using his blood as catalyst for his special skills which he shares with the original, lastly he has no firearm skills despite being rather good at aiming with his special abilities, so he cannot use any firearms found during the story.

I also have a summary of my Assault-Class Ground Combat Force, turns out I have 4 units, not 3! They are meant for the 2nd module, but if needed I can break one off from the squad and have him (technically "it," gender has limited functionality in the Collective) found somewhere in the station.

Gatter (GADR) - Grumpy, Standard Soldier model, Energy-based Jetpack

Volks (VOLX) - High-Strung, Melee Breacher model, Homing plasma disc

Rick (RYHC) - Sarcastic, Motivational, Mk-II Squad Leader model, Charged Coil Rifle, Dynamo-based generator

Tinsel (TNSL) - Wise, Standard Soldier model, Photon Missile Launcher

These 'droids are pretty difficult, but aren't necessarily game-breaking. They're just high-level, so to speak.

Drakador_Chaos
Yeah, that is fine, you can enter play as soon as it is possible in the storyline, i'll let you know.

RandomCommander
that all seems in order, you can enter play as soon as it is possible in the storyline, as with Drak.

Drakador_Chaos

RandomCommander Should I drag you in alongside of Terr´Noc´s replica?

Drakador_Chaos

Tson Aswell, I have a suggestion on how to enter, Terr´Noc collects, artifacts among them there are several meant for transportation through dimension shifting and other similar means, though unreliable they have a tendency to defy the basic laws of the universe, it´d be more like a one-way ticket in but not out.
Though I think all of the listed characters are probably meant for the second arc of the story, as long as you don´t run out of players in the first part.

Tson

Drakador_Chaos
I think it would be good if you and @RandomCommander join now actually as the other players arent, well, playing much, and when they are they dont really seem to understand that they can't just add in any old thing they want, I won't be able to do much today tho as i am going out soon. Could you add yerself with the dimension-gear or whatever, and do you think you could get @RandomCommander in the same way? no other ways tho as you are not supposed to be able to get through a stasis field but your method would work.
