GM Friendly Sauce’s Dead Suns

Game Master friendly sauce

"Well, I'm not surprised that she won't surrender. Knowing this gang's ruthless ways, if she did surrender, she'd be good as dead anyways... Someone else within the gang would sense her weakness and kill her to take over the gang... Shame tho..."

Handsome stands up and moves up to a position where he can get line of sight on Ferani. (two move actions)

"OOORRR she could join our group and be protected while slowing realizing the error of her ways through the power of friendship!" DR34-M12 shouted, her tone sounding both sarcastic and sincere.

Justin is going to stay in the back right where he is and Delay until someone drops, then either heal or stabalize them.

Ferani sees Egg approach the door way and takes 2 guarded steps towards him to threaten him with club,"Lets see you cast that magic with a club in your face four-arms!!!

"New boss. No touchy."

Move adjacent, Stab.

Tactical Pike vs KAC: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Piercing: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

This is payback for all those crits earlier -_-

Handsome takes a shot and....

Laser Pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

"I'm a lover, not a fighter, gobbammit!!"

DR34-M12 returned yet another barrage towards Ferani, nervous about how close the woman had gotten to Egg.

Full attack on Ferani.

Pulsecaster Rifle, EAC: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14
Elecricity, Nonlethal: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Pulsecaster Rifle, EAC: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
Elecricity, Nonlethal: 1d6 ⇒ 4

"Manners my dear"

Egg strikes her with his fist as his other goes for his knife.

unarmed: 1d20 ⇒ 5
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2

unarmed: 1d20 ⇒ 8
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Justin, since you are delayed I'll wait until tonight or tomorrow morning to post unless we hear from you before hand

Post away. I got one spell and not nearly enough HP left to go near that frackas. So I'm saving it in case someone gets hurt.

Despite the barrage of attacks launched against her, only one of DR34-M12's shot is able to connect however it seems to barely phase her at all.

Ferani moves for the exit, dodging Hi-C and Eggs swings as she moves past, and then fires on Egg, Striking the Wychwyrd directly in the center of his chest, putting more holes in the 4 decade old robes, but more importantly drawing blood!

Ferani ATK vs EGG EAC: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 121d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Egg can you add you Stamina and Hit Points to your header?? Everyone else may act.

Just trying to understand Egg's current status. Was any of the damage he took just now from Ferani SP damage? If so, Handsome will inspire heal him. If not, then I'll have Handsome do something else.

From what I understand, he went down before the end of the combat with the main gang members but wasnt tracking his SP or HP and neither was I. because of that, and it being over 10 minutes ago in game, I was ruling it as he is unconscious and never took the 10 minute rest so is not yet eligible for the Inspire. as far as I can see he is 0 SP 0 hp and 4/5 RP to have stabilized.

OK, in that case...

Laser pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 2 - 4 = 0
Laser pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 2 - 4 = 8

Handsome feebly fires off two shots that land no where near Ferani...

I've got a mystic cure I to poke him with if thats the case

mystice cure I: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

nice roll! That’ll fix him up.

yeah I thought I had them in my header. Until you said something I didn't even realize it

"Aight. I see how this is gonna be."

Unable to keep up with the speedy human, Hi-C moves into the room and fires off a single parting shot.

Azimuth vs EAC: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Crit Fire Damage: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5

+Burn!

DR34-M12 fires another round of shots at Ferani, hoping to stun the human before she could escape or injure anyone else.

Pulsecaster Rifle, EAC: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10
Elecricity, Nonlethal: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Pulsecaster Rifle, EAC: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17
Elecricity, Nonlethal: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Full attack on Ferani

as Ferani moves towards the door she is struck by both Hi-C and DR34-M12 one time each, "Aaargg!!!! damn that bur AAHHHHH!" she cries as she looks at DR34-M12 and looks down the barrel of her pistol as she squeezes the trigger.

Burn!: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Ferani Combat Tracking Attack vs DR34-M12 KAC w/cover: 1d20 + 6 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 2 - 4 = 61d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

but DR34-M12 is using the makeshift cover too effectively to get a decent shot, even with her exocortex helping out and Ferani continues her exit attempt.

Handsome attempts another full round attack with his laser pistol!

Laser pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 2 - 4 = 13
Fire damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Laser pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (20) + 2 - 4 = 18
Fire damage, critical: 2d4 ⇒ (1, 1) = 2
+burn! But geez...look at all those ones!

"Up you go egg you're not going to provide nearly enough cover lying down on the job. "

Hi-C clomps clomps clomps his heavy boots towards Ferani and thrusts his pike forward again.

"I think I have an idea how we can redecorate, in your honor."

Tactical Pike vs KAC: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Piercing: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

"Erase the S-I-O-N."

"What? something about cover? Is it time for bed?" Egg says taking time to slowly sit up.

DR34-M12 ducked back behind cover to avoid Ferani's fire. She swapped batteries in her Pulsecaster Rifle with a smile at Handsome. "I'm actually kind of glad she didn't surrender, I don't think she would be a good friend." She said with a slight giggle before rising to return fire at Ferani.

DR34-M12 spends a move action to reload her rifle and a standard action to attack Ferani.

Pulsecaster Rifle, EAC: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Electricity, Nonlethal: 1d6 ⇒ 4

As Ferani quickly realizes the door has been hacked and locked, she takes two shots from Handsome Gob, one of them causeing her sizzle.
BURN!: 1d4 ⇒ 1

almost immediately Hi-C rushes up and sticks her with the business end of his pike, causeing her to go limp as she exhales her last breath,"F@#$%*# door... hackers..." and then falls to a heap on the floor, bleeding out.

well Handsome, that was the a Crit of nothing but 1's but it did the job haha she ran out HP exactly. Combat is now over, congradulations everyone, you will be level 2 next time you sleep.

Attempt to stabalize what's left

"I'll bet she sings like a shelynite about who ever hired her.. if she still has a pulse "

Attempts a stabilize spell in the form of a glowing poking stick.

Loot, loot, loot, loot the office! And her. And the Vesk. And the bar.

Justin is able to stabilize her; she is beaten and burned, but unconscious and alive.

This doesn't strike me as the sort of neighborhood where police show up if heavily armed people start moving valuable equipment out of a known gang building

"Is there better armor?, I feel I need to be better defended" He says as he gets up and shakes out his stiffness. As he does he begins looking over the stuff and smelling it.

"Nice stab Hi-C." DR34-M12 said as she got out from behind cover. After Justin stabilizes Ferani, DR34-M12 will search her for her datapad. "We should probably tie her up." DR34-M12 said to no one in particular as she started to search the datapad for relevant data.

DR34-M12 will search Ferani's datapad. Keeping an eye out for anything useful but specifically searching for any data relevant to the starting events at the docs.

Computers: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23

"Right on it, Doctor."

Hi-C pulls out a set of Single-use Restraints and zip ties Ferani's wrists together behind her back.

Two sets remaining.

Handsome will test the keycard out on any locked doors to see if there's more loot to be had...

updated loot matrix with what Handsome found... that is if he decides to tell you what he finds ;D

"Guys! Check out what I found!" Handsome tososes the items from the back room onto the party's growing pile of loot.

I'm thinking to pick up the holosuit, and smallarm rounds if no one else has any use for them.

"I am assuming this is her secret stash? We should ask her when she wakes exactly what was up with the shootout? Also, are we planning on turning her over to the authorities?" Egg asks as he looks about for some air freshener to spray the armor. This is after he curls his nose and tosses the armor back into the pile.

"Nice find Handsome." DR34-M12 said in a tone that said she was only half listening as she searched the datapad. Her circuits glowing with excitement at the data she was processing.

"The Kings have definitely been up to no good. They were hired by the Astral Extractions to kill Kreel. Both to send a message to the Hardscrabble Collective and to prevent the Starfinders from looking in to the Acreon and Drift Rock."

"I assume with this evidence, we'll turn her over to the coppers? But let's call up the boss to see if he wants us to 'ask' any questions of her..."

Handsome calls Chiskkisk and says, "Mister Chickflick, sir! We have information to report!"

Handsome, along with any others who want to join in, will update Chiskkisk with what we've found regarding the gangs, the corps, and the Acreon.

After we've finished updating Chiskkisk, Handsome will ask, "Anything else we need to torture... errr... Any other information we should try to ask of Ferani?"

Chiskisk responds after a few momemnts, slightly annoyed at the mispronouncement of their name "Well that was fast, the lot of you are shaping to be very effective starfinders. Go ahead and forward me all the pertinent information and files and I'll be sure to work up a report detailing your findings." They say as you hear the clicks of a keyboard being used on the other end."station security has been alerted that you will be bring Ferani in, as long as the files corroborate your story I doubt you'll need to wake her before she gets the station brig."

"Aiight. So, where's there more likely to be money? Checkin' out this Acreon, like they don't want us doin'? Or shakin' down the corporate peeps for some hush creds?"

I assume Hi-C's question was directed at Chiskisk...

Handsome's ears perk up noticeably in anticipation of Chiskick's answer to Hi-C's question while Handsome simultaneously electronically forwards all the data to Chiskisk.

Handsome then says, "This information proves that Astral Extractions ordered a murder... You think we can really squeeze them for creds, bossman ChissKiss?"

Handsome looks hopeful....

I assume Hi-C's question was directed at Chiskisk...

It wasn't, Lol.

I already know the answer. I was asking for party consensus on where to go next.

"A shakedown would not be in our favor. I suspect the fall of our former hostess here will alert some corporate goons and they will be ready for any direct countermeasures. The investigation of the Acreon seems the most likely avenue. Especially with this Astral Extractions still wanting it to itself, they will likely reveal itself to us and the rest of the station. We can also learn of what happened to this "ghost ship" and maybe get some information for you benefactors the Starfinders. They are an knowledge-based organization after all." he says reaching in to get his remaining snack bread only to pull out a piece with a big burnt laser hole in it.

"It's difficult to say how astral exstractions would react to these accusations, they are a very powerful corperation after all," Chiskisk remarks, "I would advise taking the next few days for some rest and recovery. You've certainly earned it I'd say. Give me a few days and I can float this all up the pipe and see what the best next step for you all would be." they finish as Egg realizes his snack bread is now snack toast.

"CHISKISK is right, shaking down a corp has a high probability of having them put out a hit on us. In addition, they might just claim the data can not be trusted. I agree with Egg that the Acreon would be the better lead to follow up on."

I'll assume CHISKISK is giving a DM hint that we have gotten all relevant data and don't need to have an interrogation scene with Ferani.

Basically. at this point you guys can finish up and RP and interacting with CHiskisk or Ferani as well as sell your loot. Once I see that everyone has updated their profiles to level 2 we will continue in earnest with part 2 of book 1

Does anyone want anything from the loot list? If not, I'll calculate selling everything off and the credit distribution to everyone later on today.

I've sold off some items on the loot list but I've left the artillery laser and auto rifle there in case someone wants to pick it up. The batteries, healing serums and grenades are items I assume someone will want to hold onto. If no one does, Handsome will take them. At this point, we're looking at about 623 credits to each party member but it may go up if no one claims the artillery laser and rifle

I guess I can take the Artillery Laser. I'm only +3 to-hit with it, but that's good damage. In that case I'll toss the Laser Pistol I've been using back into the group fund to sell.

His new setup will be Artillery Laser stowed over a shoulder, Pike in two hands, Battleglove on one hand, one hand free.
