Ingame
You are inside a classroom of Pridmore Way School, a high school. Every wall has shelves built to the ceiling, every surface a book on it. Both make narrow walking corridors of the classroom floor space. Lamps hung from the ceiling make buzzing noises as they sectionally light the room. Also here is Ross (55HP).
Somebody has written the library has no organizational structure onto the door, to borrow or lend is theft or generosity onto a shelf, and answers are administered to questions irregularly onto the floor. Many are signed as the management, some crossed-out, others not.
- You say, "Oh, I was heading there too." No one is going anywhere for the moment. Ross reveals that another group of survivors is around. Apparently an unsaid standoff has been going on since before you arrived.
In the meantime you can ask Ross some brief questions.
Since your last turn:
- • Ross says "We aren't leaving yet. We aren't the only group of survivors around." (1 minute ago)
- • Ross says "I suppose you wouldn't know this, but the conventional course of action for unaligned groups nearing each other is to pretend the other doesn't exist." (50 seconds ago)
- • Ross says "They know we're in here; we know they're out there, somewhere. I suspect they're here for Pridmore and not us. We're only staying for Sam—once he's here, we go." (40 seconds ago)
- • Ross says "We may have days to kill, or maybe minutes." (31 seconds ago)
- • The lights flicker. (17 seconds ago)
- • 28.63 MHz: *static* *humming* *voices* (12 seconds ago)
- • Ross says "Time for questions, some from you, some from me—mostly from you—before I reintroduce you to the group, like the first time, but this time all at once." (5 seconds ago)
Possible actions:
- "How is everyone doing?" "Are you certain Sam is coming back?" "Why is Doug sick?" "What's your opinion on Volker?" "Why are the lights flickering? Who's on the radio?" "Do you know who the other group is?" "What's your opinion on Pridmore?" "What kind of place is Latrobe, exactly?" "Why are there so few dead around?" "How did the world get like this?" "I don't have any questions. You go ahead, ask me some."
Inventory:
- You carry a knife; a journal and a notebook; a bloodied radio and a flare gun. You have a shotgun (2), a pistol (12) and three spare magazines inside your vest pouches. You are wearing a tactical vest, blue jeans, a white T-shirt and a pair of shoes.
