Data goes up to Nalun to the older men. I've got this. And he tells some dirty jokes to the older men diplomacy: -1 + 1d20 ⇒ -1 + (5) = 4

Not quite hearing her, one of the old men gets upset when he hears something that his mistakes as his wife and a boar. "Why you, I'll take this bottle and shove it..." luckily for Data Z, the other old man heard the joke and was able to stop him before he taught this young whippersnapper a lesson on manners.

The other man looks at you, "You should go. You've upset him."

Data turns around goes move on disappointed his joke wasn't funny. He makes the Want, Want, Wahh sound effects as best he can.

After Data Z's near bar riot, your group decides to sit down and rethink your strategy.

The place you happen to sit is the only open table in the bar. For some reason, no one has sat there and you think it might be because of the three guest that Data Z spotted earlier. After a few moments, one of the Vesk men approaches your table.

"Mr. Philt would like to speak to you. This way please." he says in a deadpan voice.

What is your reaction?

Osuro shrugs and moves to follow the man. "More likely to get info form someone who wants something . . .."

Indeed. They were most certainly not interested in speaking of the Great Balance.

Data remains quiet hoping to not anger anyone else

As you approach the table the two Vesk break-off and move to stand on either side of the Shirren.

The Shirren stands up and jesters for you to sit down. "Greetings. To make things easier, I have decided to go by the name Philt. I am an Envoy from AbadarCorp. I'm sure you have heard of us." he waits for a moment. "Well, We overheard you talking about Talbot and we, the AbadarCorp, would want to know what your interest is with him. The thing is, we have business with him and would need to speak with him as well."

DC 17 Culture to learn more about the Corp. Give me some Diplomacy to talk with the Envoy.

Sense Motive w/ Skill Expertise: 1d20 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (7) + 4 + (4) = 15

Culture: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 Oh well.

The Lashunta smiles at the Shirren. "Let's do this like the civilized beings we are, shall we? No need to share with the room." Though Osuro IS sharing with his companions. "We've been tasked as repossessors. Our employer is . . . displeased with his behavior and wishes the property returned. I wouldn't be surprised to find that your employer has similar concerns? Perhaps we can be of use to each other?"

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26 Very nice!

Nalun approaches and bows low. Sense Motive: 1d20 ⇒ 7

Greetings Philt. May all that has been be again. We have an interest in the former Starfinder as he has taken possession of items that belong to the Society. Perhaps our interests are intertwined. May the Balance be Served.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Philt smiles ”We might be able to do just that. You see, the AbadarCorp bought, what Talbot claimed, was special fuel on faith. The stuff that he sold us well wasn’t what was promised. If you can catch him and deliver him to us, we would be happy.” he reaches out his hand, ready for your agreement.
After you accept his deal, you hear A deep booming female voice echoes from outside the front of the bar. “Intruders! We know you’ve come to Tasch in search of our savior. I give you this one chance. Lay down your weapons and leave our town. You will not disrupt the salvation of Akiton, not when Reynald Talbot has come so close to saving our world! You have one minute to decide.”

Sorry… been a busy weekend… You’ve got 1 minute in game to get ready.

Opptions; Surrendor, Fight, Flee

Nalun whirls on the newcomers.

The man Talbot is a liar and a fraud. The Cycle has drawn you into his orbit and his lies infect you even now. We do not wish to harm you, but know that we are capable. The Balance is with us. We will return what has been taken. Nalun's mote springs to life in his hand forming a blazing sword of Starfire.

The Newcomers are currently outside the bar's front entrance.

What Nalun said, but we will defend ourselves if necessary.

In a relatively quiet tone, "Well, if we're going to fight, then we should take defensive positions, find some cover, that sort of thing." As he starts trying to find a way to be less of a target.

If a fight breaks out, Data will level 0 energy ray stuff (fire). If there are multiple enemies, Data will get as close as he possibly can moving around as necessary without reaching direct melee and cast overheat if he can hit two or more enemies in that 15 foot cone, without hitting his allies, he will do this once.

Seriously hoping a fight doesn't happen, because it seems like a really bad idea to me. But I am where I am.

Forced to consider the unthinkable, Osuro will move towards the front wall, but into the corner the door will naturally block the view into when it opens.

He will use whatever material is available to build some cover, providing a small hole to see (and possibly shoot) through if the material allows, and then hunker down behind it.

He's planning to use Daze as opposed to lethal weapons. Hoping the favor will be returned.

Enjoying their night after their first adventure with the Starfinder Society, Donovan, Don for short, and Shess are enjoying a nice beer and just relaxing. Not really paying too much attention to anything else in the room. They hear the woman's words from outside.

“Intruders! We know you’ve come to Tasch in search of our savior. I give you this one chance. Lay down your weapons and leave our town. You will not disrupt the salvation of Akiton, not when Reynald Talbot has come so close to saving our world! You have one minute to decide.”

Looking around, they spot the rest of the group and the Starfinder symbol on one. Seeing that they are short on members, they discuss what they should do.

This is happening within those 10 rounds. Get ready and I'll move on within 24 hours. Post in spoilers what you will be doing as for buffs and stuff like that. You also have to do a bit of dialog (2-3 rounds worth).

Edit: Everyone, place your character on the map

Don sees the scene and immediately looks at Shess.

Telepathically Shess hears Don's voice with slight doubt and maybe hesitation in his voice:
"I ... I do not know what this is about but ... you know ... do you think we need to help our fellow Starfinder? Like ... who knows if the others are ... you know ... also Starfinders ..."

He has a blank face for a moment as he seems to observe the scene but after a while his facial impression changes as he obviously tries to get a grip on himself.

This takes a couple of rounds and he listens to Shess' answer.

Then, Don suddenly draws his longsword, jumps to his feet and runs to the side of the group with the individual that had the Starfinder symbol.

Shess is enjoying her first beer and orders her second one. Just as it arrives, she lifts it to her lips as the commotion from outside happens.

She cocks an eyebrow to her fellow Lashunta, replying in his mind.

seeing the Starfinder Emblem gives me some ease of mind, but I am more upset that my second beer just arrived and I had a long day. Whoever that lady is, is gonna owe me a couple credits for interrupting me. I suppose we have an unwritten agreement to help each other out in times of need, right

She gets up after quickly downing her beer. She moves over to the others, and flashes her Starfinder emblem quickly to the one she sees. She gives them a nod, and quickly says, Mind if we help, looks like you might need some help with the “whack-a-doodles” outside

Mira will that help to construct makeshift barriers with some tables and chairs. She will see if there are liquor bottles to create Molotov cocktails in a pinch. She will focus on putting barriers between the “apparent” voices and her (made boxes to represent her idea). After spends by a few rounds making the barriers, she will ready her pistol for the eventual breach.

Nalun's location is fine.

Nalun nods in acceptance at the newcomers.

The Universe provides. The Balance will be met. What was taken will be returned. Confront us at your own peril Akitonians.

Nalun holds his Starsword at a low guard position, he will not initiate violence, but he will defend himself with lethal means if attacked.

He shouts to all to hear We will not attack these beings. BUT. We are no easy meat. Tell Talbot to return what was taken, the Society may forgive but it will not relent.

The round starts as both the front and the back door is kicked in.

Bold may post in any order I'll deal with the aftermath.

Don is hesitating as he does not know what the crowd will do and waits especially until he sees what Nalun will be doing.

The one by the door swings a club at 1d2 ⇒ 2 Nalun.

Club: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

He lands a nasty blow. The guy at the back takes aim at the nearest target, who is on the wrong side of the barrier.

pistol: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

By this time the bar has somewhat cleared out.

is green an enemy?

Shess curses under her breath as both potential exits are blocked off. She grunts in pain as she gets blasted with a laser. She raises her pistol and takes a shot at the threat behind her. She than moves behind the tables she propped up. Her aim is off as her leg is in pain from the burns no sensation.

azimuth pistol vs green, ignore up to 2 from cover: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 71d6 ⇒ 3

That is correct, I changed your group color to off-white, foes are different colors.

Shess hit a bottle of cheap liquor behind the counter, but other than that, nothing much of importance.

longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
slashing damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

When he sees that his comrades are injured he attacks with his sword.

Moving out o the corner slightly, because he has no real view of anything from there, Osuro frowns even as he ineffectively fires his Azimuth pistol at the individual coming in the back door.

Laser Pistol: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Nalun grunts in pain as the club lands. He says As you wish, violence is repaid with violence. The Cycle demands it.

Starsword: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Nalun's form begins to darken, his mote turns as black as the most empty vacuum. His Starsword lashes out but the pain in his shoulder causes his aim to be off.

Graviton Mode 1/3

SP 2/8
HP 11/11

Data moves into position and fires at blue hit: 3 - 4 - 2 + 1d20 ⇒ 3 - 4 - 2 + (7) = 4 -2 is cover and -4 is firing into melee if that still applies in Starfinder with cantrip energy ray vs EAc dmg: 1d3 ⇒ 3 fire.

I just scanned the SRD and I didn't see anything for firing into combat.

Don, Your original post was to take action after Nalun. Nalun, you are after my last guy. I'll bring your action into the correct order for both of you.

Data Z, Shess, and Osuro try to hit the foes that showed up, but none of them were able to land a blow.

The lady in the back raises up her hand and casts a spell. Suddenly Donovan feels a weight upon his head and needs to make a fight off the pressure.

Will DC 14 for Half: 2d10 ⇒ (10, 9) = 19

Nalun tries to attack the foe that just attacked him, but failed his attack.

Don has a better shot and lands a good, solid blow on the fighter. Who has to struggle to keep his footing. courage: 1d100 ⇒ 81 He keeps his courage and swings at his target again.

club: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Landing another blow onto Nalun, he smiles and steps back.

The other fighter fires his pistol at Shess again.
Pistol: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 9 - 2 = 17
damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

"Nalun! Be not deterred! These men have no power over you that you do not give them. Stand in judgement over them!" Osuro projects his thoughts to Nalun, providing him with an Inspiring Boost for 5 SP restoral.

if it’s a club, it’s archaic so only 2 damage total?

Shess grunts again as she gets shot in the other leg.

This isn’t going well for me

She takes another shot at her foe, than drops prone behind barrier she made.

vs green: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 171d6 ⇒ 4

I'm looking what you were talking about Shess. But I can't find anywhere that says archaic weapons deal less damage unless they were improvised.

The one thing that I am a little confused about now is that Clubs deal d6's in Starfinder... The Scenario says that they deal d4's... I am going by the scenario for the remainder of this fight.

Osuro buffs his friend and restores some of his Stamina. Shess shoots and damages the foe behind the bar.

Club 0 — 1d6 B — L Analog, archaic...ARCHAIC: This weapon deals 5 fewer damage unless the target is wearing no armor or archaic armor. Archaic weapons are made of primitive materials such as wood or common steel. All of this I found on the srd

I went ahead and looked through the core rulebook and after some frustration... There is no current listing for archaic armor... Second Skin isn't archaic armor, so the damage dealt is reduced by 10 (total)

Fort: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

;-) 9 damage then. Can we assume that Osuro focused on Don as Nalun received less damage? I will not be able to post until tomorrow so I post my action for two attacks.

longsword 1: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 5 - 4 = 14
slashing damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

longsword 2: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 5 - 4 = 13
slashing damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

another energy ray hit: 3 - 2 + 1d20 ⇒ 3 - 2 + (12) = 13 vs EAC at blue, fire dmg dmg: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Okay, so Nalun has taken only 2 damage then right? Man, Archaic weapons suck.

Works for me if Nalun hasn't been taking much damage, I would have looked to those who were.

Data Z's ray hits the Blue ambusher, dealing him a small drop in his hp.

The lady in the back raises her hand and sends off an attack on the group.

Shess and Data Z easily shake off the effect, but Nalun and Don are a little.... confused.

But luckily, they ignore the effects for one round. Don moves forward and finishes off the Bule Ambusher.

The Green Ambusher takes aim at the partially concealed Osuro.

attack: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 9 - 2 = 15
damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Shess stands up, and takes a shot at the same foe she has been firing at. She than drops to the floor as quick as she stood.

Move: stand, standard: fire, free: prone

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 111d6 ⇒ 4

Shess, is your weapon KAC or EAC?

Works for me if Nalun hasn't been taking much damage, I would have looked to those who were.

Great! Then I assume Don now healed 5 SP from Osuro - thanks for that! I will not be able to post for a while so here Don's next action.

Don sees the first opponent falling and walks to the barrier where he has cover and throws two shurikens at the opponent on the other side of the room.

shuriken: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 5 - 4 = 2
piercing damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

shuriken: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 5 - 4 = 18
piercing damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

azi laser pistol. The dice gods just hate me is all

"It didn't have to go this way." Osuro apologizes even while firing his laser pistol at the man coming in the back door.

Energy Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
Energy Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3
