Bepo rushes up the rocky path and neatly bisects the trooper, who drops in a clattering heap.

The Green trooper casts a spell and steps away from Bepo.

Jax is up!

Holy heck! I got a decent initiative for once?!

Jax will move up and give Bepo Coordinated Barrage.

and yes I'd have spent the RP to rest and heal. Should have a good amount seeing as I hardly take hits like that lol

The black trooper grabs the mote from the air as he steps toward Bepo, as it changes shape into a large, pitch black falchion.

Attack: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19

His swipe at Bepo misses.

The red trooper casts a spell. Three bolts of magical force fly out, striking Ragabash.

3d4 + 3 ⇒ (2, 4, 2) + 3 = 11

The group identifies the troopers as Bone Troopers. They know that they have cold immunities, the standard undead immunities, and are capable of spellcasting (as a 1st level Technomancer). They have no particular vulnerabilities beyond those common to all undead. They have DR 5/-.

The group identifies black as a bone trooper solarion. They make use of the Dark Matter solar revelation. They have no particular vulnerabilities beyond those common to all undead. They have a 16 EAC and an 18 KAC. Curiously, they do not share the DR of the other Bone Troopers.

White is a Jiang-Shi Vampire. They are immune to effects from Spell Gems and possess the standard Undead immunities. Jiang-Shi have peculiar vulnerabilities--it can be held at bay by cooked rice, mirrors, or ringing a handbell. It must stay 5' away from such an object, and can't make melee attacks against anyone holding them. Doing this is a standard action; after being held at bay for one round, the Jinag-Shi can make a DC 20 save at the beginning of its round to ingnore the object.

Rags, Talek, and Tiktik are up!

Rags moves closer, draws his Solar Flare, attunes to photon mode and launches an attack against the other solarian.

Solar Flare vs. EAC (F, E, Holy): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 252d4 + 5 ⇒ (2, 2) + 5 = 9

Attuned 1

Rags conveys to the rest of the group what he was able to recall about these undead.

Talek advances and casts a spell mirror image: 1d4 ⇒ 1 as a duplicate seriously a one?? appears next to him.

"Wait. Seriously?" Tiktik is pretty sure that Rags is pulling his leg with the vampire immunities. When Rags gives him a shrug in return, he starts to quickly probe around in his mouth with his tongue.

Hmm... maybe... nope. That's the set of action figures... ooo! Nope, ping pong paddle. How bout... nope, that's the bag of Fission Chips I swiped from B-Bop. Dang. I'm really gonna have to diversify my mouth portfolio. Ah well, c'mon Mr. Blasty you're gonna have to do! With a sigh of disappointment he spits out his rifle, aims, and fires off a charged shot.

Meanwhile Elliot follows his usual routine of reaching out and bracing his bipod and firing a shot. Both target the vampire.

overcharged: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 241d8 + 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (7) + (1) + 6 = 14

elliot: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 261d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

I'm not sure how long it has been since we finished the fight against the mayor. My battery was at 8/20 after that fight, but then it regens 1 charge for every 10 minutes of movement thanks to the Backup Generator armor upgrade. Worst case scenario it is at 5/20 now, and Elliot's is at 13/20.

Sorry, forgot you guys had one of those, should have put that out there. It took about three hours to get here.

Rags hits the solarion. Both Tiktik and Elliot hit the vampire, but it seems resistant to their attacks. Elliots shot does nothing, and Tiktik's shot appears to only have a minor effect.

The purple trooper casts a spell. Three bolts of force strike Ragabash.

MM: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4, 4) + 3 = 14

L and B-Bop are up!

No worries, I don't think it has been mentioned aloud in a couple levels, but I've certainly been taking advantage of it to basically recharge batteries from 1 day to the next. So with a 3 hour hike, I would have recharged both Tiktik's and Elliot's batteries to full.

"Uh-oh, my laser beams are barely hurting Count Dorkula. Crap, I thought you were supposed to burn vampires? ...But I guess you throw cooked rice at 'em?" he shook his head, "The holovids lied to me! They lied!"

Oops, minor mistake here based on my misunderstanding a rule. Retcon: all of Tiktik and Elliott's damage went through.

I don't see why that wouldn't work.

B-Bop takes out his static arc pistol infused with holy magic and starts up the rocky stairs.

Hey! Guess what, ya stinkin' glorg-zumpers! I ain't likin' bein' in da middle'a dis sandwich that ya put us in wit' da Devourers on da other side! So dis meat is gonna tear up yer lousy, sprockin' bread bun!

Jax is up!

"You know what Rags, these guys seem to have it out for you. I mean I'm standing right next to you and yet most of those blasts are being aimed directly at you. It must be the way you're looking at them, Jax let's out a small laugh.

"I should consider myself lucky we're not fighting Kalo otherwise I'd be the one in trouble! Anyway, dont let a few punny magic blasts get to ya. Push on! Show'em this Vlaka has fangs!"

The vampire speaks.

The trooper nods and casts magic missile at Bepo.

MM: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (2, 2, 1) + 3 = 8

Rags, Talek, and Tiktik are up!

Rags moves further up the incline, casts Reflective Armor on himself, and calls his riot shield.

Talek moves up the incline and fires at the vampire laser rifle: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 151d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Sorry not willing to try my lingual skills. I’m going to continue focusing fire on the vampire who’s obviously the brains of the operation.

Tiktik comments in Eoxian, ”Silly, vampire. That bear can take you. Oh, and I wouldn’t get too close to the Vlaka, his pockets are chock-full of rice and bells. Chock. Full.”

”Looks like you made em mad Bepo. That one told them all to attack you. Show them what a mistake that would be.” L points to the vamp (white)

Inspiring boost on Bepo. 16sp restored and Get ‘Em on (Black) next to Bepo.

”Let’s clear a path for Mr. Bear.”

B-Bop moves further up the stony stairs and accosts the solarian.

If black has reach, he gets an AoO from my path. Full round action for trick attack, make black flat footed if successful.

Hey, jelly-face! You look just like da dude at da spaceport here who came up ta me an' said, "Ya wanna come over ta my house fer dinner" an' walked away laughin'. Real funny! I got yer dinner right here, eat spark bolts, nugget-nose!

Two more bone troopers launch a volley of missiles at Bepo; after failing to bring him down, the fight continues; in short order, the Starfinders defeat the remaining troopers, who soon run out of magic and are, frankly, not up to the task of taking on the Starfinders with arms.

Out of combat!

Level up, all! Also, as the Starfinder Society has been upgrading the Sunrise Maiden while it is in port, your ship can be advanced to Tier 7 as well.

Well maybe we can take a short break before we continue, ya know just to catch my breath All you see is the once previously white bear totally red and very beat up.

Hi, guys. Very busy last couple of days, but I will get a post up and move us on to the next session this evening.

No worries, I think we are all still leveling up and buying equipment. Speaking of which, Tiktik is going to buy a Called weapon fusion and install it in the Thunderstrike Streetsweeper. I should also mention he attached the laser sight that used to be on his laser rifle to it. As usual he will insist on be paid in UPBs when he sells all the party loot. He's gonna keep those UPBs on the ship in his workshop so I don't have to deal with their bulk. Speaking of bulk I shifted around some of my gear between what Tiktik is carrying and Elliot is carrying. Mainly the Backup Generator armor upgrade is installed in Elliot's new Armor Slot mod.
Lastly he will craft a pair of Industrial Backpacks, 1 for him and 1 for Elliot.
My profile is now updated with my level up and new purchases.

Actually, having throught about it, I'm going to see how you guys play this.

The Starfinders can return to Orphys with no further conflict. What do they do?

Well first things first, I am going to pop that data module into my newly upgraded custom rig which counts as a tier 3 computer with AI now. Here's hoping this isn't just the vampire's creepy porn stash, teeming with viruses.

computers: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (20) + 18 = 38

let us see what the little Deputy finds on the computer. Otherwise we have hit a dead end.

Once Tiktik returns with the credits, i'd like to pick up a few items as well. namely, a D-Suit II with Jump Jet upgrade and 4 spell gems of Mystic Cure lvl 1. after i get my new gear... i would then have my old armor to sell... plus with the corona pistol, i don't need the azimuth one any more

Tiktik is able to connect the module to his Custom Rig.

> ᴘᴀssᴡᴏʀᴅ? blinks on the screen.

Rolling for you, if you have no objection, just to speed things along.

2nd Computer check: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 32

Tiktik hacks to bypass the password module (and the firewall's Wipe countermeasure to boot).

What loads is familiar--its data from the Star-Eater's Spine. The missing data, in fact, that had been deleted from the Cult of the Devourer's database by the Corpse Fleet agents that beat the Starfinders to the asteroid.

The data indicates that the Cult of the Devourer agents believed that a system in the Vast named Nejeor was the key to unlocking the Stellar Degenerator.

Tiktik's analysis of the data indicates that the electronic signature of this data matches that of the hacker who scrubbed the data in the first place--likely the Corpse Fleet agent you've just dispatched.

Don't worry, I never mind you rolling on my behalf, especially when it speeds things along. Speaking of which I've got an AP session scheduled for tomorrow, so feel free to bot me if we move along. If the pattern holds and we get another starship combat, it is worth noting that I now have Miracle Worker as a 7th level mechanic, which can let me heal hull damage in combat if things get desperate.

"It sounds like we've got our next destination! First though, I think we should check in with all of the bosses we've acquired and tell them what an awesome job we did. You know, so we get paid 'n stuff. The lady at the Ministry's office oughta appreciate us taking out the mayor's corrupt regime. And Chiskisk seems to love a good status report!"
