Mission Forty-One [Open]

Characters: The thing that wants to kill you...and you.
Content: BOSS BATTLE
Location: The large training room on the Mother of Invention
Time: The day after this and this
Warnings: Whatever warnings you think this has, it probably does.

It starts out relatively innocuously - well, as innocuously as a shipwide warning of life support issues can be. If you were on the ship during that time, maybe you passed by the large training room that FILSS had previously opened and later closed and noticed a timer ticking down on the electronic lock next to the door. Maybe you heard about the timer from someone else - a friend who'd seen it, or a friend of a friend. Maybe you saw the post from Fate about how the life support systems on the Mother of Invention weren't quite as bad as you thought.

Either which way, you've come here to investigate. The timer hits zero and the door slides open invitingly, and you go inside, along with whomever else showed up with the same purpose in mind that you had.

The door is kind enough to wait until everyone's in before slamming shut behind you. You barely have time to register that - not again - before something large and eye-searingly colorful drops from the ceiling, shaking the floor as it lands. It looks like a giant praying mantis whose abdomen has been replaced by a giant, spinning wheel. At least that explains where the mechanical whirring noises have been coming from.

Barely a moment after it lands, the mantis focuses on the group and lashes out, intent on causing some pain.

[OOC: Welcome to boss fight round three! This is Commantis, and like the others, she doesn't like you. This will play out in the same style as previous boss battles, with D&D-style dice rolls from the mods. Please only tag in if you can keep up a good pace (at least one tag per day) with no pending hiatuses for the next week or two, in the interests of keeping a thread moving. One character per person; ten characters maximum in the thread; no tag order; start a new subthread after every boss tag. You know, the usual.]
