Ok, I don't like explaining everything, makes me seem to much a target. But I don't want suspicion either, so here goes.
I was attacked last night by two crewmen. I couldn't make out who they were. They overpowered me and held me down -- I waited for the attck to come, but it didn't really happen. They just kicked me (once), then left.
I was concerned, however, with the infections going on, so I examined myself today, much like I examined Ardent yesterday. Sure enough, I had been infected. I was able to isolate and destroy the spawnling that had somehow been infecting me.
This clarifies a few things...
- There are at least two Spawn. We were pretty sure of this, but this completely confirms it.
- They successfully attacked me, but their conversion attempt failed.
- A successful attack does not ensure knowledge of infection. I was unaware I was infected until I made my examination.
- Because of the above point, seemingly harmless attacks (they only kicked me once) can be much more dangerous than they appear.
The bad news is that I had to spend my APs on myself, so I can't learn about anyone else today.
