[SFS] Honorbound Emissaries - GM Ewok (Inactive)

Game Master EwokBanshee

The creature that attacked Duhm Kaoh takes 7 damage, and Duhm Kaoh ignores 7 damage. Total damage ignored this turn; 12.

Duhm Kaoh makes a run for the ship and goes for the ladder.

Full Withdrawal.

"Get on the damn ship!" He yells at the crowd.

Looking at The Diplomat, Klysk attempts to determine if he will be able to utilize it with any amount of skill.

Would this require Heavy Weapon Proficiency to fire?

Shrike plants her feet, swinging her blade with the intent to kill. It looks like she won't budge until the noncombatants are secure.

GK Fangblade, full attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
damage: 1d12 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23

GK Fangblade, full attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
damage: 1d12 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19

"Go, get on the ship! I'll hold them back!"

We have to get were the ladder is? Jack doublemoves 60 feet gets me to the start of the ladder, unless that is the wrong way, Jack will just doulemove to the ship

Hmmm... Yeah, it looks like you would still need the proper proficiency. The extra damage might be worth the modifiers, up to you.

While the rest of the group retreats to the ship, Shrike stands her ground! She feints once then stabs the jinsul in the side with her weapon. It plunges deep into the alien, dropping gore and the body to the ship.

Yes, the ladder is the most convenient way to get to the ship. You could also float across the gap, if you prefer that.

Everyone in bold is up! Round 7, still.

Klysk
Drone
App-L 28/50 SP
Shrike 43/58 SP
Jack
Duhm 0/61 SP, 27/41 HP

Blue Jinsul 41 dmg
Green Jinsul 72 dmg

Because it has flexible line and the lines' total distance to hit them all was 40'. Why App-L is darting around to make sure he can get 2 in the first half of the line before getting target 3 with the second half of the line.

A flexible weapon generates lines of effect at a distance from the user. Choose two points, both of which must be within the weapon’s first range increment. The weapon’s effect extends from one point to the other. Other than this placement, resolve the attack per the line weapon special property.

App-L flew towards the Honorbound, but grabbed the yellow star plasma rifle, not satisfied with letting Shrike stay that far behind. "Might as well use the gift."

Plasma Rifle vs blue, E&F: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 282d10 + 7 ⇒ (2, 10) + 7 = 19
Crit, Burn: 1d8 ⇒ 6

He looked at the hit jinsul in surprise and then let out a loud laugh. "You guys really need to get your hands on big guns. They're fun."

Klysk

Looking over the Diplomat, Klysk decides to stick to what he is trained to use. Taking aim at the remaining Jinsul, he fires once with his rifle. As he does so, he deactivates the safety of his gun, letting excess power flow into the shot.

Sonic Rifle vs EAC: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12 Almost certainly a miss

Standard Action: activate Overcharge Mechanic Trick, firing at remaining Jinsul.

Drone

Scuttling off the wing of the crippled ship, the drone clambers up onto the Honorbound. It then turns back to the other ship, firing at the Jinsul if it is still remaining. If not, it readies to fire at any who poke their many-eyed heads out onto the hull.

Laser Rifle vs EAC: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18

Move Action: move to new position; Standard Action: either fire at remaining Jinsul, or ready to fire at any new Jinsul.

Klysk and his drone's shots hit the wreckage of the ship as App-L's lightning courses through the jinsul! The jinsul runs towards Shrike and finally stabs her armor with a fierce jab!

Leg Blade @ Shrike: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (16) + 15 = 31
Damage @ KAC: 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14

The group moves forward, butting up against the ladder and babbling in the foreign language. It appears they are preparing to cross after Jack.

Everyone in bold is up! Round 8.

Klysk

App-L 28/50 SP
Shrike 29/58 SP

Duhm 0/61 SP, 27/41 HP

Blue Jinsul 66 dmg
Green Jinsul 72 dmg

Duhm keeps fleeing.

Shrike shoots another look back towards the group to see how the civilians are doing. Almost there, almost there.....

No time for well wishing. There's an enemy to defeat!

GK Fangblade, full attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
damage: 1d12 + 16 ⇒ (8) + 16 = 24

GK Fangblade, full attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
damage: 1d12 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26

App-L drifted the rest of the way to the Honorbound and grabbed ahold of the mounted gun before opening fire. "Get to the Honor!"

Schwarzenegger: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 233d10 + 7 ⇒ (1, 6, 10) + 7 = 24

Jack moves onto the ship. Just leave them guys, this fight is over.

Shrike stabs into the final Jinsul's chest, stopping it in place as it struggles to breathe. Then App-L lights the creature up with starship stopping fire! The jinsul gets blown backwards from the hail of fire and bounces off into space.

COMBAT OVER

You have four rounds to get on the spacecraft and get away before the next wave comes. Nicely done!

The survivors are ushered into the safety of the Honourbound and you quickly follow them. Once Shrike steps foot onto the ship,
Yuluzak has the ship slowly ease away long enough for the group and survivors to get inside the Honorbound before the ship picks up speed.

As you board the bridge, you find Yuluzak cheering as the Honorbound’s gunners deal a final blow to the last pursuing jinsul ship. All around, the tide of battle seems to be turning, with the majority of jinsul ships blown to smithereens by the battle-scarred Freehold Armada. Speaks Forgotten Words eagerly wishes to converse with you and the Veskarium captain. "Come, friends, we must speak." Captain Yuluzak nods and safely directs the Honorbound out of the fighting zone.

Speaks Forgotten Words stops in front of you, the golden fog swirling around the inside of his armor. "I extend an invitation to meet with the Kreiholm Freehold’s governing council. After your effort to save the survivors at the hospital and then us, I know that you and your society are good people. Far better than the jinsul who plague us." He hands you a tiny, egg-shaped chunk of polished sapphire with an appearance similar to the technologies recovered from Ardent Seeker.

Yuluzak drops Speaks Forgotten Words and the other survivors off at a Kreiholm command ship and you leave the wartorn area to return to Absalom Station. He gives each of you a solemn nod when you disembark. "Good working with you, newfriends. I hope that we will fight together in this war again some day." The rest of the crew echo his goodbye.

You are quickly ushered to a room at the top of the Lorespire Complex to meet with First Seeker Luwazi. As you enter the room you notice that Iteration-177 is conspicuously absent. Luwazi ignores this, jumping to the chase. "Well? Tell me all about the inhabitants you met. Were you able to meet any of their leaders?" She leans back in her chair, ready for quite the story.

Duhm Kaoh relates what he learned about the inhabitants he sat down with and personally chatted to.

"... So yeah, they now have concert tickets to the next gig of WE ATE GOLARION. Cute family, they will probably enjoy it."

App-L started at Luwazi before briefly covering things. "Seahorse people. Symbiotic bat people. Ooze people. Saved a dignitary and helped stabilize hospital patients, so we somehow left a good impression." He brightened up as he remembered something else. "And we captured a jinsul solarian live... So someone can have fun with that."

The First Seeker listens in rapture to your tale. "Starfinders, you soared above and beyond my expectations. This invitation could be the start of a bright new era for the Society. I’m certain that today you’ve
made history. I’m so very proud of you.” She stands and shakes each of your hands. "I will certainly be in contact with you when we move forward on this information. And as for the jinsul...don't worry about him." She gives you a devious smile and picks up the com to answer a call.

And that's it! Great job everyone, you handled the challenges, roleplaying and decisions really well! This was a lot of fun. What a great high level game. I'll finish up the chronicles tonight and get them uploaded!
