Fair enough Valia. Let us know which one it is and Chill can adjust the result of the Bluff roll if it matters


Female Orc

kinda need to know one way or other, Valia.

The card:
Valia gives the card to Anody when he asks.

Just playing it like a mobster. didn't mean anything by it.


Female Orc

The sphere stops, and a light plays over the card.

Sense motive: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Anody snaps at the robot waving the black card at the thing as well as the slate.

While doing this, the robot targets anody with its integrated sonic weapon.

anody, a new bluff roll is needed, it is suspicious and it is talking to someone or thing else.

It's talking to something else. ATTACK! Anody screams and immediately starts a Naturalist Performance. Can't repair itself and it's damaged but it's got armour and can target one enemy for extra damage. Electric attacks might stun it. Kill it fast. I don't know what it's communicating with!

Hope we get a surprise Round but this would be Anody's first action in any case.

Naturalist: The archivist and any allies within 30 feet gain a +1 insight bonus to AC and on attack rolls and saving throws against extraordinary, supernatural, and spell-like abilities used by creatures of that specific kind of monster

As Anody gives the order to attack, Sharae releases the elemental and commands it to attack the flying robot.

GM – FYI, the Small Air Elemental’s initiative is +7 (also: AC17/Touch14/HP13)

Small Air Elemental, Slam vs Robot: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19 for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Note that Airborne Creatures take a -1 penalty on attack / damage rolls vs the Air Elemental

Whispering her customary prayers, Sharae asks Desna to guide Valia’s sword hand.

Sharae, Guidance on Valia – Valia may take a +1 bonus on his next attack roll or skill check

Criek will have done his best to hide, after spotting the robot and retreating to the rest of the party. Considering how eager everyone is to 'specimen' me, no reason to draw attention...

stealth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

On Anody's cry, he lobs a bomb at the construct--

ranged touch, point blank, bard perf: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 9 sorry, everybody...gm, roll for off-target direction?
fire damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 4) + 4 = 9 splash=6 fire damage, DC15 reflex for half

--but, somewhat rattled by the idea of the robot signaling reinforcements, the bomb goes wild.


Male Elf fighter 4| HP 29/42 AC 18:T 12, FF 15| CMB+4:CMD 16| F+5|R+3|W+3+1|Init+4 Perc+1

Valia has to draw his weapon, but he closes on the sentinel and attacks.

Female Orc

This is a surprise round. One standard action
Stillness is changed into manic action as the party starts the combat.
Valia swings the first blow, but although he strikes the sphere cleanly, his sword bounces off.

The robot, focused with its sensors on anody seems confused by Valia sudden, though ineffective attack.

GMPC
Ayla cries out a warcry bringing her blade own onto the exterminator. Her muscles seem to bulge as she strikes
swift action strength surge
nodachi: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
damage: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
unfortunately the blade bounces off the robot's hard shell
reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21 she manages to avoid most the damage, and ignores the rest.

Sharea speaks a strnge word and the spell she had being holding is released. A small whirlwind appears and strikes the sphere, but with little effect.

Anody starts rattling off what he knows about the robot, stuttering slightly as he realises that its weapon is still targeted on him. But his information aids the parties attack from that point.

Criek hurls a bomb, but it goes array. where oh where will it land: 1d8 ⇒ 3. Right under anody's feet

Anody, air elemental, and ayla please make reflex saves, DC15. 6hp if you fail, 3hp if you make it, fire damage

exterminators reflex save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19


Female Orc

Some of criek's bomb damages the robot, and it reacts to the damage.

Alert, alert I am under attack. Assistance needed. Damage sustained.

Robot
Hp taken 3
AC 20
flat footed 15.
Touch 10, but after it acts, 15

currently it is flat footed until it acts in round one. Valia can therefore still hit it flatfooted.


Female Orc

Round one. FIGHT!

Valia is up

man what is the DR on that thing? Would Anody be able to figure it out?

reflex: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Anody manages to avoid the worst of the errant bomb's fire.


Female Orc

Robots have hardness, depending on what they are made of. It has 10 hardness. Hmm, if only you had a weapon that did lots of damage...It is vulnerable to energy damage, especially electricity

Valia looks around, trying to spot the greatclub.

Did you add the +1 from the bard buff Ayla?


AC 20, T14, FF16, F+6 R+8 W+10, HP 35/46, 1 CON damage, Initiative +2, Perception +4, Channel Energy 4/8, Bit of Luck 7/7, Agile Feet 7/7, Grit 3/4, Panache 2/3

Without wishing to be a party pooper... The chainsword takes a Standard Action to start up so Ayla can't attack this round with it... Also, does Ayla have the required exotic weapon proficiency? If not, doesn't she treat it as an improvised weapon?


Female Orc

True on both accounts.


Male Elf fighter 4| HP 29/42 AC 18:T 12, FF 15| CMB+4:CMD 16| F+5|R+3|W+3+1|Init+4 Perc+1

Do I see the club nearby though?


1 person marked this as a favorite.
Female Orc

the club lies nearby. It is near the bio decontamination room, some distance away, and past the robot. But it is only a great club, with a -1 to hit due to unwieldiness. Your sword does more damage.I have put the club's location on map. BTW, you do flank it with Ayla


Female Orc

Exterminate!
From a recess in the sphere, a whining shriek starts blasting at Anody

sonic blaster: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17 ranged touch

damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 6) + 2 = 12

The blast slams into anody, feeling like he is being pummeled by a hundred fists.

Parties up.

Ahhhh! Anody screams as he gets the full brunt of the attack. He ducks behind a corner if he can to get away from the machine's line of sight and continues his performance. Energy attacks will go right through it's defense. Otherwise a really very very hard hit might get through it's metal carapace! Sorry can't see map again

Sharae closes her eyes and, looking into the world beyond, sees the probable movements of the robot in the immediate future with a little more clarity – touching Valia on the shoulder, she shares this vision with him…

Sharae, Bit of Luck on Valia – this round, when Valia would roll a d20, he may roll twice and take the better result

The air elemental, it’s strength insufficient to damage the robot, moves around to a flanking position with Valia…


Female Orc

waiting on valia and creik

Anxious about hitting his allies again, but heeding Anody's cry about energy damage, Criek takes a bead on the thing and tries another bomb--

ranged touch: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 16
fire damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 1) + 4 = 10

next round I am going to aid Ayla, hopefully help her attack.

Female Orc

The exterminator's quick movements and thick shell defelect various attacks, but creik's bomb slams into it damaging it.

Danger! I am impaired! Targeting damage source

The robot spins and targets the rat man.

Target is humanoid type, adjusting targeting parameters. EXTERMINATE!

The robot fires it's sonic weapon

sonic blaster: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 4) + 2 = 8

oh dear

critical confirm: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

critical damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (3, 5) + 2 = 10

The sonic blast slams into creik, knocking him to the ground in a ripple of energy.

Party is up.


Female Orc

The robot has taken 13hp, and is looking damaged.
AC 20
Touch 15

Valia, the air elemental and Ayla currently have flank.

this round
anody, sharea and elemental to act

next round
Valia and Ayla

Then the robot again

Valia, did you roll your attack again to use Sharae's bit of luck buff? Ayla should probably use a standard action to start up the chainsword so she can use it next round I guess..

Grimacing as Criek goes down under the force of the blow from the robot, Sharae calls on Desna’s generosity…

…Could my healing repair the robot? Is that even possible?

Sharae, Channel Energy: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5, Healing for Everyone - Selective Channelling to avoid healing the Robot

Air Elemental takes no action and returns to the Plane of Air at the end of the turn

Ayla starts up the thing


Female Orc

With a stuttering whine the chain sword starts operating. Sharea calls upon her god, and healing energy engulfs the party, except anody who has ducked around the corner. Creik wakes up, finding himself lying on the floor, covered in bruises.

Sharea, what does your elemental do? Remember it could attack to aid another character, giving +2 to an attack or AC vs one attack


AC 20, T14, FF16, F+6 R+8 W+10, HP 35/46, 1 CON damage, Initiative +2, Perception +4, Channel Energy 4/8, Bit of Luck 7/7, Agile Feet 7/7, Grit 3/4, Panache 2/3

GM – I’d forgotten about the ‘Aid Another’ option, thanks for pointing it out…

Slowly dissipating, the whirling elemental changes it shape such that it acts as a funnel for any bombs that Criek may throw..

Small Air Elemental, Aid Another / Criek vs Robot: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25


Male Ratfolk Alchemist (trap breaker) / Ranger (skirmisher) 7 | Init +3 (+5 underground) | HP 22/53, AC 20 t15 ff17, CMD 21, F+7 R+9 W+4 | Perc +10 / +13 vs traps | Bombs 12/12 Tricks 4/4

oof! if i could throw while prone, I'd do it for the ACs...but he'd prob hit me anyways. since Sharae's before Criek in init order, I think I get to act in normal order?

Finding himself on the floor after a momentary blackout, Criek scrambles to his feet, glancing longingly at at the bend in the hall as a chance for cover. Thing would just hunt me down, I've no doubt? The others' weapons don't seem to offer me much protection! So here's hoping--

ranged touch, point-blank, bard, aid: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 17
fire damage, point blank: 2d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4, 2) + 4 + 1 = 11

He watches in satisfaction as his bomb encases the robot in another burst of flames, but starts moving for cover anyways. move action stand up, standard action bomb, 5-foot-step


Male Elf fighter 4| HP 29/42 AC 18:T 12, FF 15| CMB+4:CMD 16| F+5|R+3|W+3+1|Init+4 Perc+1

Did ayla attack round two or did she spend it revving up the sword? I think we're in round three now, and the buster should be working.

if she attacks this round with sword.:
valia aids: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

is she spends this round revvin up for battle:
atk: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18dmg: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

I also missed the part about sharae's "bit of luck" reroll if allowed for round 2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12


Male Gear Gnome Archivist (Bard) 6 Gestalt Technomancer 3| HP 44/44 | AC 17 T 13 FF 16 | CMD 14| F 4 R 7 W 6| Per +10 | Init +1 | Perform 14/17

Anody looks around the corner and keeps up his helpful advice. Unlike most of its class of machine, this one can't heal itself, so if we kill it, it will stay dead.

Continue Performance.


AC 20, T14, FF16, F+6 R+8 W+10, HP 35/46, 1 CON damage, Initiative +2, Perception +4, Channel Energy 4/8, Bit of Luck 7/7, Agile Feet 7/7, Grit 3/4, Panache 2/3

Not without a significant dose of weariness in her voice, Sharae shouts back to the Professor, "That'll make for a refreshing change - something that we only have to kill the once". Whether Anody hears her above the whining of the strange and brutal weapon is a moot point...

Reading back through, I think Ayla only starts the chainsword this turn (Valia is the only person to act in Round 3 before the robot - everyone else is taking their third action - which includes the surprise round).


Female Orc

that sounds right. Ayla attacked with the nodatchi in round one, and turned on the chainsword in round two.


Male Gear Gnome Archivist (Bard) 6 Gestalt Technomancer 3| HP 44/44 | AC 17 T 13 FF 16 | CMD 14| F 4 R 7 W 6| Per +10 | Init +1 | Perform 14/17

What did Ayla do in the surprise round? Attacked I think.


Female Orc

Round one was the attack (surprise round, round two she activated the chainsword, it's now round three.

Creik stands and hurls another bomb at the exterminator, badly damaging the robot.

Round three
Valia attempts to hit the sphere but bounces off its smoking armour.

Alert! Alert! Damage is critical! Withdraw for repairs!

The exterminator attampts to flee, advancing to the double doors the party couldn't open before. These slid open at its approach.

AOO on the robot by Valia, Ayla and the elemental as it flees. If it survives it is at the location on map.


Female Orc

The robot has taken 25hp
AC20
touch 15

after the aoo's the party is up


AC 20, T14, FF16, F+6 R+8 W+10, HP 35/46, 1 CON damage, Initiative +2, Perception +4, Channel Energy 4/8, Bit of Luck 7/7, Agile Feet 7/7, Grit 3/4, Panache 2/3

I think the Air Elemental probably dissipates at the end of the previous action - it has acted three times and Sharae is CL 3rd. Regardless, any AoO (even a crit) won't get past the armour...


Male Gear Gnome Archivist (Bard) 6 Gestalt Technomancer 3| HP 44/44 | AC 17 T 13 FF 16 | CMD 14| F 4 R 7 W 6| Per +10 | Init +1 | Perform 14/17

Let's see how the chainsaw goes.

AoO: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 5 + 1 = 23
Damage: 3d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4, 6, 1) + 4 + 1 = 16


Female Orc

Ayla swings the humming chainsword in a clean arc as the robot tries to flee, cutting into it savagely. The weapon cuts through the tough outer layer, tearing into it's insides. With sparks flying, it spins, then falls, crashing to the ground.

extreme damage, system malfunction, repair request

Then it grows still, sparks still spitting out from time to time. Tge party smells burning.
