[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Nope. You are now partly below the nuclear room. The makers of this new room took good advantage of the heavy concrete-and-steel walls for their new project. The other half of the room is directly below the room with the passwords.

On the ceiling is a seal and an energy conduit rune, the one Heart couldn't identify. There are also thick cables hanging down from the nuclear generator. Your Geiger counters are going off.

Inside the room are steel cages with shimmering planes of force between the bars. Around the perimeter of each cage are several more runes, made of wires, which Heart identifies as the same sort of docility-circuit found in a Scimitar glove. And inside each of the fourteen cages, is a Nucleon.

The Nucleon are of various ages. Some look ill, while others are healthy. One is missing the flesh on one limb, limping back and forth in the small cage on a skeletal paw. Another lost an eye (leaving two).

Each cage is locked with a heavy steel padlock; no sign of any keys. One side of each cage is similar to Bill's PC display, automatically providing the occupant with food and water sent in data form. A central console allows someone with either password to control these displays. Most of the cages are hooked up to the cables that descend from the ceiling.

The emotions coming from this room are those of creatures who feel far less in control of their environments. Creatures who are NOT happy with the way they've been treated.
