Whispers in the Machine.

(Blows the shots fired air horn)

"At least I've been useful Angel. If I remember correctly I had to come save you and your squad in our first meeting. Do not test me, I have already had to kill many other Marines I would consider brothers today and that has put me in a foul mood. If you'd like I can go wait in the armory like my original orders had me doing." Pelious growls. Then he pauses and takes a deep breath. Visibly calming down despite being in Power Armor. "There are more important things than this petty squabble I have started, what matters is clearing the fort. I have a black fury raging inside of me for the horrid fate of my brothers and I WILL have vengeance for them, but I am letting that hate blind me to my current allies." Pelious shakes his head as though clearing it, then gazes at Damien, "Lead on. You'll have no more trouble from me." Pelious assumes his backwards position again, and begins chanting to himself, but too quietly for the rest of the Squad to hear what he's saying.

"I to apologize for my outburst. It was petty of me and not befitting of command. I truly appreciate your aid in the battle and I'm sure your continued assistance will be equally welcome." (Varrsuvius is closest to the panel so you get first inspection.)

Varrsuvius doesn't know about this stuff he lets someone who does go handle it

(Yah dude dm will tell you if you actually don't know stuff. Next time at least go, I walk up and inspect the panel, or something. You're a space marine not an idiot, you know what shiny bit has no power means.)

Varrsuvius attempts to use his power sword to cut the door from the wall and kick it off (roll strength?)

(Well that took a turn.)

Pelious, still facing away from the rest of the squad, calls over his shoulder, "Please try to open the doors with the handles. This is a fortress with automated defenses after all. I do not know how the low power mode had affected them, but evidently they're still live. At least in some areas anyways. And I'm not really a people person, but I don't imagine any survivors would appreciate seeing a power sword coming through a sealed door with no prior explanation. I assuredly know the Tech-Priests won't."

"Well that was fun and all buuuuut..." Damien reaches around Varrsuvius and tries to open the door.

Rolling strength (59)

The member 'Crowen' has done the following action : Dices roll

'100' : 38

(Hydraulics, somewhere a techpriest detects the scent of tech-heresy)

(Is Hydrolyks better? Like some sorta techno magik.)

Damien takes a surreptitious look inside.

(It'd probably be Pneum-automatic Ingress/Egress Portal Drive Pillars)

(Marines or turrets?)

From around the corner, "Stand down marines! We're friendlies!"

"He speaks the truth! He is the leader of a strike team sent to help recapture the base. I am Pelious of the Iron Hands, Centurion Pilot and a member of the forces that were present in the Armory during the attack. Please excuse the Blood Angel, his zealousness to eradicate the Xenos temporarily got the better of him." Pelious shouts after.
