Main | Talk | Misc | Talk Archive Current page: RNG Screw PenguinPyro! RNG Screw The closest we could safely get to it. A specific piece of hardware found in various locations in Malton, typically obscure or darkened areas, the RNG screw is a majestic sight to behold, consisting of a single slightly rusty fingernail-sized, T-shaped bit of metal. It has never been seen moving around of its own volition (let alone shooting, barricading or performing other survivor activities), but at the same time, rarely seems to ever be in the same place twice. Alarmingly, when dispatched violently within a certain range of this screw, members of the terrorist organization Flowers of Decay seem to have a tendency to rise back up again, decidedly alive, as if nothing happened. If injured, the FOD's wounds will mysteriously vanish. The screw seems to have a strange tendency to be found wherever these ruffians go, for reasons unknown. Its true motives may be sinister indeed. If encountered, do not panic, the screw will at most fall to the ground and roll around a bit. Calmly walk away or continue about your business, with both hands well away from your weapons and you should be fine. Displays of friendliness may result in surprisingly good luck later, provided you have not already antagonized this small piece of hardware. Force seems to be an option against the RNG Screw, should you bizarrely require a reason to assault an unoffensive piece of metal lying on the floor. Be aware, however, studies have proven the screw somehow has the ability to withstand as much punishment as a fully armored, conditioned soldier. Those who have failed to finish the job, as they say, often end up rather unfortunately tripping on a shotgun blast and onto several dozen pistol rounds. Most unfortunately. However, this generally seems to be the only cause of such misfortunes, so you will generally be safe ignoring the screw. However, in the event of its destruction, the screw will always be found elsewhere shortly afterwards, completely intact, so even extreme measures are only temporary. Scientists are hard at work researching the properties of this unusual helical fastening device, though work has been stymied by its tendency to mysteriously appear and reappear in various places at once.
