Our adventure started as the team left town of Salado, Texas to rescue the Mayor's hellion daughter. They started on I-35, encountered a bandit ambush, beat the bandits, then traveled to the bandit's cave hide-out. The adventurers found found 5 dead bodies at the cave entrance all burned to death by some sort of laser weapon.
The characters fought floating aliens probes and robot. Each of the alien devices were made out of purple crystal. The charactes managed to destroy the probes and robot but not at the expense of all the allied NPCs. (Savage Worlds is tough on the non-wild card characters).
This week, they investigated the cave and freed the mayor's daughter who was frightened, hungry, thirsty and mad as hell. She didn't mind being rescued by had no intent of going back to her father. The crew tried to decide how to handle the not-rescue while exploring the remainder of the cave. They found a old metal door, circa late 20th century burned through with some sort of energy weapon. A mysterious green mist flowed out of the opening. They heard moans from inside the opening.
The soldier character spotted an old robot that had been lasered to inoperability. As they walked into the room they spotted four zombies shuffling toward them with hands extended. Having seen all the horror flicks, they did called shots to the head.
After wiping out the four zombies they were surprised to see their former companions and all the dead bodies at the cave entrance shambling toward them. Thinking the last four had been so easy they weren't that worried about the four moving toward them.
Slow but sure they killed the approaching zombies. To their surprise, others showed up having gone around another part of the cave. The pucker factor when up considerably when these new Zombies managed a slow run toward them rather than the usual shuffle.
They finally killed all the Zombies and started to search the original Zombie room. It's filled with cannisters containing the undead and four destroyed robots. Corporate markings are on the cannisters along with hazardous waste signs. Five of the containers were damaged and knocked over allowing the Zombies to escape. They apparently were damaged in a fight between the alien robot and the old Earth 'bots.
There is an opening at one end of the cave where the grounds given way. The characters could hear water running below. There are five open cannisters and four of the old Zombies. One is missing.
So endeth this session.
It'll be fixed by monday night
