OH SHIT NIGGER

you were just sitting on this bench minding your own damn business when an explosion shook the building you were in. you look out the window to see a MASSIVE FUCKING MARKER standing in the place of the MARKER RESEARCH FACILITY.

pondering this would probably be the most prominent thought in your mind, but alas, it appears you've briefly forgotten who you are!

so, who are you?

>list name, appearance, and profession

[quest rules:
[There are 2 possible endings, escape, or death.
[roll a D20 whenever you make a command, the highest roller after 5 minutes of the first reply will be chosen.

[you can and WILL die if you are careless. obviously I will allow some shenanigans but watch yourself here.
[each thread will be following a different person aboard Titan Station during the outbreak
[don't freak out if I don't post after a while, this shit's gonna be more complicated to draw than Neil Mcman and I'm pushing myself

Your name is Johnathan Trask.
You just go by Trask though.
You're a big guy (4 u)

You're a Full time doctor, stopping by your therapist today to grab another prescription for sleeping pills since you just ran out.

You are in a waiting room, the power is out, and you are alone.

>what do

[only one reply will be selected from now on, figured it wasn't exactly fair this time since it was only 5 minutes to respond and also baneposting. jokes will be ignored within reason]

You search the room from your comfortable bench vantage point.

you are still alone, and the reception desk is deserted

A table to your left has an audio log and a crowbar on it.

there are 3 visible doors. one is malfunctioning (off screen,) one leads to the reception area, and one is an elevator.

>the power continues to be off

you walk over to the table and pick up the crowbar and audio-log. good job

The audio log is actually a really old album. we're talking like 2016 shit
"A moon shaped pool"
It's definitely pleb tier, at least compared to the artist's other work.

anyways crowbar obtained and mildly good music also obtained.

[I'll combine commands if their similar enough but the highest roller takes priority]

You ring the bell. There still seems to be an absence of anyone in the room.

A distorted wet growl comes from the vent

You hide behind the desk, cowering in fear.

You attempt to signal a distress call on any frequency but nobody answers
Just as you are about to turn your transmitter off, you hear a garbled call from a women somewhere else on the station:

"ISA.....s.hhhk....IF YOU CAN HEA... ME.ghshskkkkk.. RUN"
well that's no help.

sure enough, after another full minute of waiting a car crash corpse monstrosity comes veering itself out of the vent and into the room.
You seem to have evaded it's gaze for now, but you don't want to wait to see if this glass holds.

Try to stealth past it and go out of the room.

You start off very well as it's eyesight is apparently terrible, however, you accidentally kick an empty can from behind the bench

It clinks along the ground and the necromorph is alerted to your presence
