5' step backwards adopting total defense if able. Although it wouldn't have mattered on either of those hits :-/

"Thanks, nice shot Guaire"

**Edit** no total defense that's a standard action-not possible this round

Total Defense would have saved you from the second attack Jarreck, it would have pushed your AC up to 22. You got another +2 Defense from me.

crit confirm: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 4 + 1 = 21

Seven
Mort

U guys are up

Sorry, guys think I'm gonna take a nap for a bit. I wonder how these beds are?

***Edit - damage+crit: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 2) = 13 should have additional 3 points damage for point blank shot +1's total 16 - if not too late to correct.

Like an automaton, Seventeen spans her bow yet again and takes careful aim, while her Pony kind of dances and does nothing terribly useful.

Summon monster is essentially useless at this level. That changes of course later on.

Seven's pony

Guaire is getting slightly frustrated his arows seems more often than not bounce off these foes.
Shot, PBS, FE: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 = 14 Dmg: 1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 = 4

As it did so just now.

.....i'm going back to the retailer with this faulty bow...

standard action: total defense (AC+4)
move action: stand up AC 20 - provokes AoO
free action: p/u sword off table

"Thanks again. This is starting to be a habit of mine. Need to rethink some strategy here. Another shot if you will please."

Seventeen calmly puts her crossbow back over shoulder and eyes glowing, utters an arcane phrase which causes twin missiles to pulse from her outstretched hand.
Magic Missile CL3: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (4, 3) + 2 = 9

The pony moves in and continues to suck.
Hoof 1: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (5) - 2 = 3Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 3

Swift action: use an arcane reservoir point to boost CL to 3. 5/5 used
Standard action: cast magic missile, 4/5 used

Seven's blast rips the floating metal creature apart, it crashes to the ground with a clatter.

Combat Over

"Machines trying to force order, to force treatment...man something is really messed up with that."

He turns around to the gnome and gently shakes him.
"Hey there little man, no time for napping."

I'm flying back home this afternoon. Wont be able to level up till I get back.

"What's making that noise?", asks Seventeen as she stalks over to the box in the corner.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Not sure If I awake that easily.

Omo uses the wand Someone needs to keep track of charges to heal Mort 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (1, 6) + 2 = 9 and Jarreck 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3) + 2 = 8

I've used 5 charges total

Seven hears feeble cries and something banging against the closed cylindrical tube. KN:Engineering for more, technologist feat needed...

Omo: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19 Omo doesn't know anything about the tube.

Marked first will update other 4 when I'm back. Its listed on Mort's page so you can see what is left. I'll update tomorrow night when I get back home as well.

kn:eng w/tech: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 blew that one sorry

Guaire puts away his bow.

"It's not the most delicate way, but we could smash it to free the one trapped inside. Unless someone poses a good alternative."

On the off chance, probably won't work.

"Hello? Anyone there?", asks Seventeen near the tube.

Omo looks for a latch, hinge, seem or button.

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

"There must be some way to open this!"

Niles, do we need to make checks if we would decide to smash it? Or would we just take our time to do so?

Close observation of the tube shows there is a slot for an access card, and a black stripe next to the slot.

The Tube reads అచేతనము పోడియమ్ : హెచ్చరిక

"It reads stasis pod? Caution. I have a black access card to open it. What's a stasis pod"

Niles would Jarreck know what a stasis pod is?

Kn:Engineering.

yep I blew that roll spectacularly earlier, so either we can try it without knowing the process or let it be till whoever is inside quits screaming and thumping. Option two there doesn't sound good.....

"Open the tube."

Kn: Eng: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16

Jarreck will use the black access card to open the stasis pod barring any opposition from remainder of the group.

Mort stands up and groggily awaits for the others to opn the tube, he keeps his shield ready though as anything could be trouble in here.

A man falls out of the Stasis Tube, most of the party immediately recognizes him as Khonnir Baine.

He mumbles incoherently and his eyes roll around, his legs look like they have been sliced open and then healed and then sliced open again.

Heal Check: 1d20 ⇒ 8 yeah wasn't too hopeful on this one, Mort, Guaire?

"It's the Councillor but he looks to be in pretty bad shape. Mort, Guaire can you guys help him out? I'm gonna step back out of the way"

Jarreck will turn to the rest of the room they are in and now that things aren't shooting him or trying to knock his head off, he's going to look around.

perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 28 if time permits taking '20'

kn:engineering: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25 have the robots been programmed to attack or has their AI just gone buggy after so much time has passed

"Councillor Baine!", exclaims Seventeen in surprise.

"Oh he's damaged. Can anyone heal him?, asks Seventeen.

Heal check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

"He is in need of some serious healing indeed, he won't be able to walk on his own. Let me relieve his pain a bit." Mort draws the wand of CLW again and taps Khonnir twice with it.

2 CLW: 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (3, 8) + 2 = 13

Backtracked our expenditures of wand charges, now at 30/50 charges left.

"Good to see the councilor is alive. If this place was for medical purposes, it must be faulty, leaving him in his condition."

Despite Mort's healing, Guaire will support the man for a bit with walking.

Backtracked our expenditures of wand charges, now at 30/50 charges left.

We were close, I was showing at 33 before last use of two - I'll use your numbers. Speaking of which though Jarreck is still a might bit squishy after the last fight.

Mort looks over to Jarreck after healing Khonnir.

"You don't look so fresh yourself Jarreck. Here let me use this wand on you as well."

3 CLW: 3d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 8, 5) + 3 = 21

27/50 charges left
