GM Friendly Sauce’s Dead Suns

Game Master friendly sauce

Good enough for me :)

The party is able to use the silence of space to get partially in the cavern before a second unknown zombie sees Hi-C and shrieks silently at him!

INITIATIVE SUPRISE ROUND:

Handsome Gob
Hi-C
Justin
DR34-M12
schMarti Pantz
Egg
VZR
VZB

Bold may take a single action in the suprise round

"Looks like we got them right where we want them."

Justin aims under Eggs legs and above gobo ears trying to take a shot at the red.. thing

attack: 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 3 - 4 = 15

damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

As the zombie shrieked, DR34-M12 spun up her exocortex's combat protocols.

Move action to activate Combat Tracking on the blue zombie.

Seeing that we're bottlenecked, Handsome tries to open up some space for everyone else by moving in to the opposite cavern wall.

Steps out to shoot at the blue one

attack KAC: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

I just double checked the armor mod rules. Could I have had DR34-M12 install the backup generator during the 10 minute rest? Her custom tools count for any engineering check.

Delaying schMarti

Handsome zips accross the chamber, trying to stay out of the way while Hi-C hunkers down waiting for them to come to him.
Justin, despite the angle, wytchward arms, and gobbo ears, is able to get a shot off that connects with the red zombie.
Egg steps out but seems to have grabbed the pistol with the wrong arm, an easy enough mistake when you have 4, and isnt able to come close to hitting anything other than the wall.

INITIATIVE SUPRISE ROUND:

Bold may take a single action in the suprise round

The blue zombie pushes off from the wall he was crawling on towards Hi-C. Hi-C braces his pike and lets the Zombie impale itself on the pike, however the zombie had enough momementum to slide in close enough for a lick,

lickety lick: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 2 = 81d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

right as the tongue is inches from his face Hi-C twists the pike, causing massive internal damage and the void zombie goes limp on the pike.

"Anybody know how many crew there were?"

Same tactics as last time.

Public Service Announcement that Coordinated Shot is in effect ^_^

Justin floats along the ceiling and turns head over heels to fire at red again

Attack: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 3 + 1 = 22

damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

"WhEEEeeeEEEEeeeeEEEeeeeee "

"I don't speak Ysoki. Care to translate?"

Pauses for a second

"PRETZELS!"

Egg fires another shot

attack KAC: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Handsome yells "Get that well-tongued zombie before it gets another lick off!!"

Get 'em placed on the zombie

Hansome then takes a shot with his pistol!
pistol vs KAC: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 3 + 1 = 16
piercing damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Delaying schMarti

schMarti steps up, gets a bead down his scope, and fires,

pew: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 121d10 ⇒ 5

Handsome motivates the group while firing into the last zombie, driving a bullet into its shoulder.
Justin continues to fire from his high up position, hitting the zombie square in center mass.
DR34-M12 fires twice an hits it once.
schMarti fires and barely misses the zombie.
Egg fires wildly, missing his mark.

Mangled, and barely held together, the Void zombie scurries along the wall towards the lone small goblin!

well tongued attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 171d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

the void zombie's tongue wraps around Handsome and squeezes tightly as handsome feels microscopic parasites begin draining his blood and his strength begins draining!

Handsome Gob-10; -2 strength damage
Hi-C

DR34-M12

Hi-C remains where he's at, pulls out his artillery laser (move action), and tries to lure the zombie to him (standard attack).

Artillery Laser vs EAC: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 1 = 12
Fire Damage: 1d10 ⇒ 7

Attack: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 1 = 5

and not wanting to be next, floats back

DR34-M12 continued to fire upon the zombie.

Another full attack on the remaining zombie.

Laser pistol, Azimuth, EAC: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 - 4 + 1 = 7
Laser, Fire: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Laser pistol, Azimuth, EAC: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 4 - 4 + 1 = 19
Laser, Fire: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Hi-C fires a burst of laser fire into the zombie, finishing it for good.

COMBAT OVER

Neither zombie has anything of interest on them, the estex suites shredded to bits by the combat and, presumably, their transformation.

There is a tunnel leading to the east and a very modern looking space door to the south.

Egg looks at his gun checks the chamber takes out the rounds checks the barrel and shrugs."I believe my gun is defective"

"Mine isn't. Speaking of which "

offers the thermometer to handsome gob

"Same deal as the Kasatha "

mysticism check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

Handsome sinks to the ground. "And that's what I get for stepping out from behind the big guy..."

Handsome will take a 10 min break if there's no objection.

"Ammo check," Hi-C calls out as everyone takes a breather.

"I got six shots left on this baby, and another battery as backup. How's everyone else doin'?"

@Justin, with your mysticism check you know the zombies were undead but not much else. if you want to check Handsome out for disease it would be medicine.

"Maybe I should switch to the other one" He says pulling out the sidearm he had just procured. then looking at the Azmuth Pistol he had too.

I'm fine with another rest. DR34-M12 will install the backup generator in her armor slot during the rest.

"Pistol battery is near full, have about half a charge left in my rifle and 3 more batteries. Once I get this backup generator running I can start charging my spent one.

justin doesn't know if these things even spread the disease ...

Medicine check 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

@Justin, it looks like, besides the blood loss and ensuing strength damage, Handsome is free of parasites.

once the rest is done where would you like to head?

Hi-C counts on his fingers.

"I feel like I'm repeating myself... How many Goblins are we supposed to have right now?"

"Well, if you count the fact that I count for five times your average goblin..." Handsome counts on his fingers, "One, two, three... Ummm... I've lost count."

"I was fairly certain we were only supposed to have two but now I need to scrub my data banks for irregularities."

I vote we check out the door.

"I don't THINK you have any more parasites than you started with. "

"Two I believe"Two Goblins HA HA HA Egg says as he puts that gun away and looks at the Other weapons he picked up.

"As for weapons I have been picking up pistols here and there. SOme are those burning ones, the other two are normal. Have my club and two knives too" He says as he begins to pull them out for them to see.

sounds like everyone is ok proceeding through the door? I'll give a few more hours for any objections.

Going forward with the double doors.

also a bit or retconning about the loot of the 2 void zombies. One of the void zombies is still carrying a credstick with 470 credits. In addition, an azimuth laser rifle and needler pistol float in this chamber, discarded by the void zombies after their transformation. Both weapons are depleted of charges and ammunition.

After another rest, the group forms up on the double doors. there is a panel with a button on the right side and pressing the button causes the doors to open. In stark contrast to the caverns elsewhere inside the Drift Rock, this chamber looks more like a room on a space station or starship. Rather than the unfinished rock of the asteroid, the walls, floor, and ceiling are clad with finished sheets of some polished, metallic substance, along with components of unrecognizable equipment. Panels on some of the walls flash with lights and mysterious symbols, and an almost infrasonic hum of unseen machinery pulses through the walls.

The hallways goes on about 20 feet before branching off the to the left and right.

"Praise Triune!" (he sarcastically shouts in an exaggerated "Praise Jesus" sort of way)

Hi-C walks up to the intersection, stretching and enjoying the return to gravity, but stops just short of the end and peers around the corner...

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Hi-C moves up the hallway and peeks around both corners. The western corner goes on about 30 feet before looking like it turns on a right angle heading north. The eastern corner goes on for about 15 feet before probably opening up into a room. the southern side of this room appears to be rough rock instead of the the finely polished tiles.

Hi-C waves for people to follow him and mouths, "Which way?"

Once Egg is inside he begins to look over the symbology and tries to see if any of it is consistent to any language he knows.

Intelligence Check?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

Zombie items added to the loot list. I'll take the laser rifle if no one else wants it. It'll be good if we run in to any more zombies.

"Lets head to the right. That should circle back, hopefully clear out the backside before moving forward." The android replied.

Placed a white arrow for the direction.

Handsome nods in agreement.

"A'ight."

Hi-C lights the way with his armor's flashlight, in a 15 foot cone, waving it from side-to-side for dramatic effect.

@Egg, the panel that opens the door simply has a button with a circle and another button with a line, for open and close respectively. The symbology on the panels is nothing you can recognize coherently

The group works their way around the hallway. it is a room the is 10 feet wide about 50 feet long. there are various alien machinery and monitors. At the end of the hall is a security robot of some kind that begins to beep angrily at you and its arc emitter begins firing up!

INITIATIVE ROUND 1:
Security Robot
Justin
Egg
Handsome Gob
Hi-C
DR34-M12

Bold may act

The security robot finishes firing up his Arc emitter and fires a wide arc that hits Hi-C, DR34-M12, Handsome, and Egg as it passes through.

Hi-C reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
DR34-M12 reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Handsome Gob reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Egg Reflex: 1d20 ⇒ 16

Electric arc damage: 1d8 ⇒ 8
arc recharge: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Egg, tries to back into the hallway again, DR34-M12 presses against wall to avoid most of the damage; Hi-C does the same, which left Handsome open to take the full force of the wave however.

INITIATIVE ROUND 1:

"Not nice!" He says firing off his spell.

Missile 2: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Missile 3: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"Hmm... I think I recognize this thing..."

Profession (Bartender): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

"Yep. Definitely a broken maître d'roid. Needs some hard core reprogramming."

Hi-C moves up 25 feet to threaten it with his pike (double move).

Public Service Announcement that Coordinated Shot is in effect ^_^

"Nice shot, Egg!! That'll show 'im!!"

Inspiring boost to Egg, healing him for 7SP

"Everyone, I bet that droid doesn't even serve rum, making it absolutely undeserving of existence! Get 'em!!"

Get 'Em is in effect!!

Engineering check to identify the robot. Theme Knowledge: Reduce DC of Engineering checks to identify creatures and technology by 5.
Engineering: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20

"OW, I just got these capacitors!" The android yelled, her circuits flashing in pain at the electrical attack. Spinning up her combat protocals and bringing her new laser rifle to bear, DR34-M12 opened fire on the robot.

Move action to activate combat tracking, standard action to attack the robot.

Laser Rifle, EAC: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 17
Laser, fire: 1d8 ⇒ 5

Justin wanders in front of Gob, braces his tail and takes a shooters stance

shock!: 1d20 + 11 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 4 = 181d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Both bolts hit, causing painful electircal currents to course through Hi-C!
