I just hope that big trunk of his that's been draining me is his... nose.
I know I've been talking about a date, but... thinks Kush as he staggers forward, guardedly stepping towards the two gigantic critters.
Thrym literally shakes the skeleton apart!

PCD-3 moves back firing at the mauve ellicoth
RD-S2 moves forward.
Botamo, already beginning to glow with solar light again, resheaths his sword in fire and swings at the remaining marine,
The wounded Ellicoth once again steps back, and lightly caresses Kush's cheek with its trunk.
While the other creature gores twice at RD-S2 through the very much broken window.
And the marine spontaneously bursts into a pile of ash.

Swish--
--Swish--
--Kush slashes twice at the blue-tinged ellicoth.
PCD-3 fires at the blue ellicoth
RD-S2 fires at the Blue ellicoth
Botamo defies gravity as he leaps through the air, trying to set up a flank, "Yer doing great eh Kush? let's finish off these hoser beasts and finish this!" he roars as he slashes at Blue.
The Ellicoth lashes out at Botamo as he comes within range...
And takes two solid hits from Botamo and PCD-3.
The creature, hurt and confused, steps away and attempts to syphon Botamo's very life force!

Kush takes a step forward, and, thinking RD-S2 a great fighter, he emulates his manner of attack!
Kush IS a great warrior! Just as he steps up to the mighty, bellowing beast, the very air around it disrupts, and it collapses!

What would you like to do?
As all mighty warriors, Kush BELLOWS: "To the LIFEBOATS!"
"FIRST THE SERPENT... then the lifeboats!"
As you carefully make your way to the Bridge, dodging security patrols, the comm unit in Botamo's armor begins to buzz...

Parl? what does Parl mean?"
"has anyone ever heard of a Parl? I just got a message asking asking about one eh?"
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
“The machine is asking to see the original message. Botamo, may I see the original message?”
Kush frowns, looking around to try and figure out what is going on.
"Mind controlled?"
"Machines can't mind control us organics, thats just nonsense." eh says as he hands the comm unit to Ardee, "Parl eh?"
RD-S2 instantly recognizes the triangulation symbol that's quietly flashing next to the comm unit's signal strength.
Someone is trying to track your location. Replying to the message may give your position away.
“Agreed.”
Kush no idea what is being ignored, so he just ignores the "ignoration" taking effect.

The party wisely avoids giving away their location, and in doing so, you safely steer clear of any further encounters (although doing so takes you roughly half an hour). With a map of the interior of the ship, you have no difficulty reaching the command section.
Once you arrive the doors to the Bridge are, understandably, locked. While RD-S2 recognizes this is a lock of far superior quality compared to every lock you have encountered thus far, it is still no match for his custom rig.
This large room has double doors centered in the fore and aft walls. Two large computer consoles flank the fore door. Ten-foot-wide raised platforms with metal railings run along the port and starboard walls, each with an exit out of the room. Four large display cases made of a clear material stand evenly spaced in the center of the room. Each case contains a different item under a harsh white spotlight: a red-and-gold spear, a humanoid skull and spine, a desiccated severed hand with a gem embedded in the palm, and a spacesuit helmet with swirling red mist within it and blood spattered on the inside of the visor.
Waiting inside, in a variety of grotesque positions, are three undead monks that seem to be moving with supernatural speed!

Some kurobozus arise when they violate the tenets of their orders in ways that create great suffering. Others are the result of living creatures following a rigid path designed specifically to lead to this undead state. Their entire lives are spent preparing themselves for a vile ceremony in which they are ritualistically choked to death.
CE Medium Undead Human Solarion
They seem to be under the effects of Haste!
Black Apoxia (Su) As a standard action, a kurobozu can create a 30-foot cone of breathlessness, making it hard for creatures to breathe properly even if they are wearing environmental protection. Each creature within the area must succeed at a Fortitude save or be fatigued for 1d4 minutes. Creatures that do not breathe are immune to this effect.
Sage’s Bane (Su) Once per day, as a reaction when a kurobozu successfully damages a foe with a melee attack, the kurobozu can cloud that foe’s mind. The target must succeed at a Fortitude save or gain the flat-footed and off-target conditions, as well as be rendered unable to use any Wisdom-based skills or communicate through any means for 1d4 minutes.
They have Evasion.
They can modify their bodies to become resistant to either fire or cold.

Kush admires the nimble and flexible Undead.
"Oh my! Those are Kurobozus! BLACK MONKS! I saw all the cool drawings etched on the walls back home, in that big building!
I LOVED them as a kid. Wanted to grow up to be one!
Yes, they are the coolest!"
He claps his hands together, like an excited kid.
"They are really strong and can..."
Kush sends a mental message to Botamo, ready to cast as soon as he gets an answer and before Botamo moves--
++How can I make your armor more resistant?++
++Uh well ya lets go with fire electricity and sonic?++ Botamo says before glowing darkly and activating his haste circuit.
he then leaps through the air, defying gravity to wrap around behind the grey monk before slashing with his solar weapon,
"Yes, boss!"
Kush casts his last most powerful spell, boosting Botamo's armor--
--and slips into the room.
PCD-3 moves forward
| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |
RD-S2 aims at the Grey monk, unleashing a torrent of plasma.
Thrym steps forward so that he can see into the entire room, and sets up his tripod.
RD-S2's torrent of plasma washes over the display case (melting it entirely) before continuing on to engulf the Monk in terrible burns! Alarm claxons on all of the cases begin to go off.
But as Kush demonstrates his spellcasting ability, the Monks rotate their heads to lock eyes on him. The one closest to Botamo takes a hasted Guarded Step towards Kush and lets out a Flurry of Blows!
The blue-robed Monk comes out from behind their case and breathes a cone of breathlessness at Kush and Thrym:
And the pink-robed Monk comes out from behind their case and attempts to telekinetically disarm RD-S2 of their plasma weapon!
They then grab it mid-air and shake their head solemnly at RD-S2.
The flames on the Grey Monk extinguish themselves, but all three Monks seem to glow with a reddish hue afterwards.

"Kush, Take care of this one, I'm going for the one in the back!" Botamo says as he leaps through the air and slashes twice at the pink monk.
And Botamo does indeed "take care of" his target!

Kush is not bothered at all from any of his conditions--
--he just fails anyhow at slashing the grey monk.
The Monk performs a one-handed handstand to avoid Kush's first slash and rolls into Tree Pose to avoid the second.

Seeing the monk do the poses he saw sculpted in that temple as a child Kush--
--remains speecheless.
PCD-3 takes aim at the grey Monk
RD-S2 moves forward avoiding the range of the blue monk, to pick up their plasma caster.
Despite his lethargy, Thrym fires away at the nearest Monk!
With such an offensive volley, the remaining Monk focuses on Thrym, steps forward, and hastily pummels him!

Botamo grimaces at the blue one as it strikes at Thrym; Quick as he can he dashes over to the blue monk before swinging his sword and saying, "Your going in the penalty box eh?!!"
When you’re fully graviton-attuned, you can pull a creature outside the normal confines of space and time. To use this ability, you must succeed at a melee attack against the target’s EAC. If you hit the target, it must succeed at a Will saving throw or be shunted out of reality for 1d4 rounds. The creature is in an extradimensional space that causes it no harm, but it effectively ceases to exist and it cannot be located or contacted by any mundane or magical means. When the duration expires, the creature reappears in the space it last occupied, or in the closest unoccupied space if its original space is now occupied. To the target creature, it seems as if no time has passed during its absence, and it returns exactly in the state it was when it disappeared, including having the same duration remaining on any spells or effects that were affecting it at the time of its departure. At 17th level, you can spend 1 Resolve Point as a reaction when you hit a creature with this ability to increase its duration to a number of rounds equal to half your solarian level.
