Will Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

"Ouch! Why does everyone always want a piece of me??"

Will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Solenopsi seems slightly cowed by the powerful presence the dragon generates. Still, she takes a guarded step around the dragon and tries to hammer at the its hide.

Hammerfist, shaken, flank: 1d20 + 5 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 5 - 2 + 2 = 20

And Frinke fires another shot with his gun hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 vs EAC dmg: 1d10 ⇒ 6 electric and fire.

Will,Smek: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Only Solenopsi is shaken for 1d4 ⇒ 3 rounds

Ratatat continues to slice in to the dragon with both his swipes, and although slightly hesitant Solenopsi hits hard with her hammer.

However Keyrock and Frinke's shots still miss their marks.

Botting Smek
The Corporate Agent slips on in while the dragon is facing the two on him and takes a shot.

However the dragon keep his on the the ysoki but still gets hit

The dragon the takes a bite at each of the ones attack it

Bite Damage: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Bite Ratatat: 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (20) + 12 - 4 = 28
Bite Damage: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
Bite Damage: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Each of you must make another Will save as the bite also shakes your core.

Solenopsi releases a psychic cry of pain as the dragon bites down. Cloudy ichor leaks between the cracks in her armor before the environmental nanites begin to seal the breaches. She rises up on her four legs and strikes back at the dragon with her armored abdomen.

Hammerfish, Shaken, Flank: 1d20 + 5 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 5 - 2 + 2 = 21

Frinke then moves up to it with a survival knife hit: 4 + 1d20 ⇒ 4 + (19) = 23 vs KAC
dmg: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Only those bitten this time need to make the save, which they dit

With everyone charging the Dragon is overwhelmed and you are not sure who got in the final blow, but it dragon itself fades and dissipates as a bad dream.

All that is left now is to insert the tablets in the Alter.

"This one suspects that was not a real dragon," Solenopsi theorizes aggressively into your heads.

Ratatat rubs his wounds, saying "Well, it certainly hit hard enough to fool me..."

Ratatat takes a 10 min rest to restore SP, then says...

"Alrighty, shall we insert those tablets? I'm willing to insert them if we think it might be trapped or otherwise dangerous."

Ratatat volunteers to insert the tablets.

Smek will go over the altar to see if there is anything strange or amiss.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

"This one suspects that was not a real dragon," Solenopsi theorizes aggressively into your heads.

"So, you are saying that its like, what? Not real? Only how one would imagine dragons? Perhaps so. After all, it did happen to make a bad liar." notes Keyrock, as he reaches for one of the tablets to place it upon the alter.

When you insert the tablets in to the altar, the force field to the central chamber lowers allowing you access to stairs leading to the vault below. The vault is covered in more of the glowing runes and is filled with strangely shape bottles and cryptic devices along the shelves: the Dreamer's relics that you have been sent to receive.

You are able to retrieve what you need and safely make your way back to the Loreseeker. When you inform Venture-Captain Avrin he is extremely happy. “Well done, Starfinders, well done. Since you are already near Liavara I ask that you take the relics directly to Whisperer of Solar Winds yourselves. You deserve the honor. I know others of our society will work with the Dreamer to figure out what this may mean for all of us. Who knows what secrets this will unlock!”

Ratatat turns to his fellow teammates and says, "Yay us! I'd say this mission was a job well done by all!!"

Turning to Arvin, Ratatat says, "Thank you! We'd be happy to visit the Whisperer!"

"I am all for learning secrets." notes Keyrock. "However, know this. Should the Dreamer reveal secrets to me within your presence, then that would technically invalid any future claims she may attempt to assert of attorney-client privilege."

Solenopsi stares at the dwarf. Keyrock is reflected dozens of times within her dark, many-facetted eyes.

"Argeed VC Arvin, we're happy to make the delivery." Smek offers the group a nod, "Now that was an experience. Well done team. I look forward to working with you all again." With a grin, "But what do I know, I'm just a modern Ysoki living in a modern time..."

Great round all, and thanks for brining back memories of the SNL skit Keyrock.

Great round all, and thanks for brining back memories of the SNL skit Keyrock.

It's a favorite of mine (obviously) by a comedy genius that we tragically lost way too soon.
