Is that the room with the double doors? You have that long back corridor redded out, but isn't that the way we came in by the airlock and fought the first akatas? Or am I reading the map wrong?

This is correct. They are going the way you guys came in.

John left the strategic decision of what to do with the goblins to the others. The ways of organic life were a mystery to him - they could be fleeing or taking advantage of the confusion, and he had no way to know which.
Instead he concentrated on the targets in front of him. It felt like the calibrators had been knocked to the left, so he compensated and tried again. Once again his aim seemed off, and he cursed silently to himself.

Action 1:

Kamiya gave the goblins a little frown. "What you've found already is fine to keep. But...no more finders keepers. We have been sent here to investigate what happened and we need everything left where it is. If you find something you want to keep, you have to ask us. Okay?"

diplomacy: 1d20 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 10 + (4) = 16

Action 2:

With the akatas now all grouped together as they pounced on the imaginary goblins, Kamiya took advantage to get them all in a shocking grenade blast.

Didn't Robert booby-trap the ship so that someone couldn't just take it?

John bit back a scream as he jumped backwards. The Akata's head - mouth still stained with blood analogue - followed him and it tensed to pounce. The cannon snapped to attention, and John deliberately took a breath. 'Wasted almost all my rounds firing like a n00b. Aim, damnnit'. The cannon fired as the Akata jumped, the round intersecting the head in mid air, passing almost entirely through the body and coating the room beyond in a blue spray.

Gravity attune round 3. For all the good it will do me.

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 Shocking. Am I cursed in every battle happening right now?

Oriana swung the staff again, but no matter what she did, the blue space lion evaded her with ease. She suddenly began to lose confidence, aware that she could die, here and now.


Male Human Technomancer 1

I see that "back away from the door" part didn't take place last round... so let's make 100% certain it does this time. Back away, cast another energy ray.

Fort save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17

Ouch! Stupid mutt, down! Play dead! Be dead, for the matter," Robert grunted, retreating from the beast and summoning another spark of electricity from a wall panel to scorch the creature's hide.

If I remember correctly, last time you had to move to get within line of sight and then you cast your spell. I'll retcon your bite if that's not the case.


Male Human Technomancer 1

Hmm... I thought I had line of effect to the middle one, but the door might have blocked it. Oh well, he survived, so let's not turn back time.


Female Human Operative (Outlaw) 3

"John! Lead them out this way! Maybe we can sic them on the goblins!" Zadie backed down the corridor a little farther.

Did the goblins close the doors behind them? If so, Zadie will open them again; if not, she'll move directly into the engine room doorway and look around for the goblins.


Female Lashunta

Kamiya had no other way to help but to throw another grenade. Pulling another shock grenade from her belt, she threw it at the same two akatas she had already electrified.

shock grenade: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
damage(electricity): 1d8 ⇒ 2
damage(electricity): 1d8 ⇒ 8


Male Human Technomancer 1

Two crits on the same round? Nice ;^) And indeed, we crippled our own ship just in case someone tried to take it and leave us here. So the goblins shouldn't be able to start it, not unless they just happen to have that one critical, unbypassable component as a spare part that Robert took with him...

Themeless Android Soldier, Notary Public, Barrister, Solicitor and Attorney at law

3 crits, actually
With one round left, John stepped forward, dropped to one knee and braced his cannon, carefully aiming away from Oriana. "On 3." he announced "1. 2. 3!" This last number was drowned out in the roar of the cannon - but with no accompanying roar from the Akata it was obvious the round had missed.

Oriana, not aware that the threat behind her had been neutralized, continued to fight for her life. This time, she staff impacted the creature's head with a satisfying smack, though it still didn't fall.


Female Lashunta

Maybe this will help John and Robert since they go after. Oriana doesn't need help this round :)

Kamiya ducked behind Robert to squeeze on to the bridge. She waved her arms at the remaining akata, trying to distract it from Oriana. If she could keep its focus on her then maybe the others could catch it unawares and finish it off.

Using Clever Feint to hopefully make the akata flat-footed

bluff: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10


Female Human Operative (Outlaw) 3

Zadie momentarily threatened the engine room with the baton and the corridor with the laser pistol before reversing her weaponry. "Hey!" she snapped at the goblins. "What do you two think you're doing? And it better be something to help with the akatas and not just looting!"


Male Human Technomancer 1

Energy ray: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6 Hopefully Oriana really will not be needing that help ;^)

Robert peeked into through the door into the bridge, taking the opportunity to kick the blasted beast that had bit him as he did - its teeth hadn't quite managed to penetrate his skinsuit but he knew he'd have one hell of a bruise tomorrow. The Kasatha seemed to have things well at hand, but just in the name of proactive self-defense, Robert reached out with his willpower once more to cause a power conduit next to the creature to surge, but this time the Akata was quick enough to dodge aside once it felt the first caresses of static electricity, before the charge had had time to build up to lethal levels.

Oriana's 4 arms flailed together, as the akata shook her like a rag doll. She swung again, trying to end the cursed thing, but her balance was off and she was unable to connect.


Female Lashunta

If Kamiya throws a grenade behind the akata, will it only affect it while leaving Oriana alone?


Male Human Technomancer 1

Energy ray: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16
Damage, electricity: 1d3 ⇒ 1 Pitiful, but that's what one gets for 0th level spells

"Down, boy," Robert muttered as another spark of electricity scorched the Akata's hide. The beasties were a true menace, and the sooner this last one was put down, the better.

Just throw one with a small blast radius (less than 15' and I'll give it to you).

"This is not your ship to salvage!" Zadie snapped at the looting little vermin. "Now you stop that until everyone's back together again, or I will throw you in with the akatas and shut the door!"

That only leaves her incendiary grenade and that is useless against an akata. Kind of wishing she had an envoy improvisation to encourage Oriana...


Themeless Android Soldier, Notary Public, Barrister, Solicitor and Attorney at law

With a practiced motion John snapped out his clip and slammed in another, all while still in firing stance. A second later another round zipped past Oriana and into the Akata. One of the forelegs vanished under the impact of the mighty round.

As the kasatha went down, Oriana slumped down beside it, breathing shallowly. Her staff vanished, to be replaced by the dark mote that hovered by her shoulder, indifferent to her suffering. Rooting around in her pockets with her lower hands, she finally found one of her last remaining serums, and carefully drank it back.

healing: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Immediately, most of her wounds closed, and the deep ache in her leg lessened to a dull throb. Sore and winded, she closed her eyes and said, "I'm gonna just sit for a few minutes. Tell me if anything is coming to eat us." She heard the others begin to explore the bridge and fiddle with the controls, but she was content to just focus on breathing, and getting her feet back under her.

Action 2
"If those goblins are under control, I think I'll join you. I want to take a look at that bite. I think it mostly scratched the surface, but my armour is looking the worse for wear." John agreed. "Robert, did you want to try to find out if there's recordings or logs or something in here, or should I have my tech do it?"

Quietly John looked over Oriana as he sat with her. 'Not sure how she's still conscious. I'd be looking down the barrel of a decommissioning if I took that much damage.' "Would you like a drink?" he asked the captain politely.

"Robert, did you want to try to find out if there's recordings or logs or something in here, or should I have my tech do it?"

"I'll take a look - not much else for me to do here at the moment," Robert said, casting a quick half-apologetic look towards Oriana, feeling a bit queasy at all the blood staining her clothes.

It was a relief to root himself at a console and get to work. The technomancer dug into his suit pocket for an interface cable, then realized he couldn't connect it to his datajack without taking off his helmet. Muttering a curse under his breath, he decided it would be safer to keep the suit's integrity uncompromised just in case and made use of the console keypad instead. At least this console hadn't been reorganized by a lobotomy patient like the one at the Engineering had been, he consoled himself as he began pulling out files.

Computers: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21 Let's start with the obvious roll... Robert will try to first gain control of ship systems, then try and see if there are any sensor logs or perhaps captain's logs or unsent private messages written by the crew members in the datasphere that might help shed light where the crew found the rock, why they decided to tow it here, and what happened to them.


Female Lashunta

Action 2:

Kamiya quickly moved over to Oriana. "I think we could all use a short rest. Can I do anything to make you more comfortable? Or maybe just keep you company? It's not like I'm going to be much help with the bridge computers."

Kamiya is all for the 10min rest

Action 3:

Kamiya pushed herself up from where she was resting with Oriana. "I think we need Zadie here on the bridge more than we do her watching over the goblins. I'll take over babysitting duty. We need to extract as much information as we can from the computer system and she can help."

The lashunta gave Robert and John a reassuring smile, "Not that I don't have complete faith in your abilities. It's just that many hands make short work."

Kamiya will go and find wherever Zadie is with the goblins and then stay with them while sending her to the bridge.

John shivered, and reached for his cannon. "Something else?" he repeated. "Is it still here, or did it follow them back to the rock? Why didn't they know earlier? Was it invisible or something?"


Male Human Technomancer 1

Can Robert get root access and more info if he succeeds in a better Computers roll? Like, are there shipboard security sensors, that would have recorded the mysterious attack? Perhaps not, if the point is to keep it a mystery for a while longer.

"Also, 'it' instead of 'them'," Robert noted. "Thus, one creature that did to the crew what a group of those Akatas didn't, force them to run for their lives. "


Male Human Technomancer 1

Oh yeah... did we still get that bonus skill point, or was it a 1st-level-only thing?


Female Human Operative (Outlaw) 3

"Could it still be here?" Zadie wondered. "Why didn't it kill the goblins? Or the akatas, for that matter, if it's so big and bad? Hey, Kamiya! Ask the goblins if they saw anything on the ship besides the purple tentacle-cats!"

I'll try to get to the level-up this afternoon. I'm waiting for plumbers to show up this morning.

OOC stuff...

Oriana: you were down 3 of 11 and now are at 9 of 11 for hit points.

Robert: I gave you all the info available at this time. Funny things with sci-fi trapping and crystal balls; it's always a struggle for the GM to keep some of the mystery and still allow PCs to know stuff so... that's it for now. :)

You do find info on the 'package', which I will detail next turn.

You may all use another skill ranks for a 'profession/background type' skill.

Zadie: no hurry on the level up info but you will need it... [insert evil GM laugh] :)

Kamiya approached the goblins and used a tone of voice that had been favored by her mother. "Do I have to remind you two that you agreed to ask me before looting anything? If there is something you want, you agreed to ask me before taking it, didn't you? So you wouldn't possibly be doing the exact opposite of what we agreed to, are you? I think it best that you stay within my sight until we leave."

Not knowing exactly why Zadie wanted this question answered, Kamiya shrugged and relayed the question to the goblins. "Did you see anyone or anything else other than the akatas before we got here?"

Action 2:

Oriana wrote:
Company would be nice. You're a good girl. And a fine pilot. I'm glad that the fates have brought us together."

Kamiya's eyes lit up at Oriana's compliment, "Thanks, Oriana. I was really trying. I'm glad too. I really hope you find your son and if I can help in anyway, I will."


Themeless Android Soldier, Notary Public, Barrister, Solicitor and Attorney at law

@Zadie: Seems a waste to just take a feat. Is there a uses/day on Field Treatment?
John looked at Robert. "Thanks. I'd missed that. Well, no point in holding back then. If we see something, go all out."
Fabian - I think my ammo should be down by 6 or 7 from when we started, and it would be good to get the battery charges for the laser cannon as well.
