Chk'tarlsh |
Chk'tarlsh is set. Approaching from the north, eyes on the guard station.
Spanner |
Spanner stays in the vehicle trying to use it as cover.
Tiktik Drann |
Would we have had a chance to send Vossi off into the wild? I'm slightly concerned we'll be losing the moral high-ground against Ipsoth if we subject an endangered species to a battle unnecessarily...
Tiktik is in position regardless, and against his better judgement has his screamer grenade in his cheek pouch
Our Mysterious Benefactor |
Vossi is willing to aid you. He won't attack Ipsoth directly because that would remove your heroic stand against the forces of EEEEVIL, but he can be persuades to harass the minions or provide a distraction.

You burst into the gala, guns out and giant lizard roaring. The hostages cry out and huddle down, while Ipsoth's speech stops mid-sentence. "Well now, the unclean come to turn the righteous from their holy course. Let us work our holy cause my followers!"
I've placed the jeeps on the board. Put yourselves on the edge where you wish to be and act from there. Vossi will act on your initiatives.

Chk'tarlsh |

Tiktik Drann |
Concerned at seeing Data take a hit Assuming Data your KAC is correct in your stat line, Tiktik scurries over and shouts out
"It doesn't look bad Data, you'll be fine!
Inspiring boost so you recover those SP right back!
Lykos 8601 |
Lykos rushes up by the edge of the trees, pulling his laser pistol out. He'll let Chk'tarish do the up close fighting but can't help out with anything behind all of these trees.
Double move action
Y Data Y |
Yeah, that 14 is correct, as I'm stingy with my credits on about half my characters, as I'm stocking up for high levels in case I need them. This is my original level 1 armor.
Thanks Tiktik and Data will swing his survival knife hit: 5 + 1d20 ⇒ 5 + (17) = 22 vs KAC dmg: 1d4 ⇒ 2
Our Mysterious Benefactor |
Green falls in two pieces with a wet thump.
Vossi thunders forward through the trees, heading toward the remaining Lashunta!
Ipsoth cries out in anger as he sees one of his minions fall. "Behold viewers! See how the oppressors rush to violence to solve their differences? They have even subverted a gentle native of this world! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Let blood be the price, then!"
Ipsoth flies to the northwestern edge of the stage and points at the closest enemy: Data! He makes a gesture and Data feels his mind under attack!
Mind Thrust, 2nd level, Will DC 16 for half: 4d10 ⇒ (1, 7, 5, 9) = 22 damage!
Round 2!
Red and Blue turn their attentions to the feathered avenger thundering toward them!

Spanner changes his targeting and target to Ipsoth.

v EAC: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 1 + 1 = 13 Fire Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Tiktik Drann |
Tiktik runs between Data and Ilsoth.
"Stop that you bully! Vossi joined us because you enslaved him!"
to punctuate his words he levels his plasma bolter and fires at him.
Advanced Plasma Bolter: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
E&F damage: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (3, 1) + 5 = 9
Yith-Naarin |
Yith laughs at Ipsoth, "You are a horrible liar. You kidnapped Vossi and put some kind of electronics on her head to control her. She's doing this of her own free will."
Yith will gesture at Ipsoth and reply in magical fashion.
(Shooting stars, full round cast)
force damage: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1, 2) + 3 = 10
Lykos 8601 |
Lykos lets his magic do the talking as he launches a magical barrage at Ipsoth.
Magic missile full round: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 1, 4) + 3 = 11
Chk'tarlsh |
Seeing the lashunta in the guard station being expertly dealt with, Chk'tarlsh moves toward Ipsoth, drawing his pistol in his off hand as he moves.
Reaching a point in the clearing, he drops to his stomach and fires a round at the terrorist leader. (Drop prone)
Tactical semi-auto pistol: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Piercing Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Our Mysterious Benefactor |
Spanner shot misses the terrorist leader, but Tiktik, Yith, Lykos and Chk'tarish do not! The non-magic weapons don't hit as hard as expected, but still do a fair bit of damage! (He seems to resist the electricity and fire, and even the bullets don't do as much damage as expected. Magic on the other hand is effective as ever!
Vossi snarls and moves to just between the two remaining lashunta and lets out an ear-splitting roar that tickles some primal spot deep inside you.
Red Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Blue Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Both Lashunta look frightened, but they must be professionals because they don't wet themselves and run away. Vossi looks disappointed in this.
Data!
Our Mysterious Benefactor |
Data shuffles!
Ipsoth lets out a laugh of disgust. "I freed this noble beast from captivity and gave it the tools it needed to remain free! Ours is a noble crusade, why won't you see it?!?" He flies forward and suddenly his hand is coated with webbing. Melee Attack vs Chk'tarish KAC: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 However, he misses!
ROUND 3:
Lashunta minions
Heroes
Ipsoth
The Lashunta all decide to fire at the giant Renkroda menacing them!
Red Trick attack (survival) vs Vossi CR +20: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Blue Trick attack (survival) vs Vossi CR +20: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Red vs Vossi KAC: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20 for 1d10 ⇒ 9 piercing!
Blue vs Vossi KAC: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25 for 1d10 ⇒ 10 piercing!
Only one hits and Vossi lets out a bellow of anger and pain!
Heroes are up!
Lykos 8601 |
"What's he doing with webbing? Be careful Chk'tarish!"
Lykos fires off more magic missiles at Ipsoth in support.
Magic missiles: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4, 4) + 3 = 14
Yith-Naarin |
Yith uses her speed to move around Ipsoth.
"I'd pay good money for you to shut up..."
She then swings her Doshko.
Doshko: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Pierciing Damage: 2d12 + 6 ⇒ (12, 9) + 6 = 27
Our Mysterious Benefactor |
Ipsoth gets hit with magic missiles, then with a doshko! He lets out a sigh as he topples to the ground, dead.
The lashunta cry out and start to aim at you, but a roar from Vossi has them cowering, clearly cowed!
Combat over! What would you like to do now?
Tiktik Drann |
Tiktik was about to throw a grenade at Ipsoth, but instead puts it back into his cheek pouch and slaps Yith and Lykos on the shoulders.
"Well done team!"
He makes sure that the weapons of the lashunta and of Ipsoth are safely away from them and that their dangerous And valuable! belongings are confiscated.
To the lashunta he addresses a warning, standing by Vossi menacingly
"If you don't fully co-operate with us I don't think we'd have any qualms returning you to nature via Vossi's stomach. Is the danger over or did Ipsoth have other forces or plans?"
Intimidate: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16
Yith-Naarin |
Yith looks at the Lashunta as Tiktik is addressing them.
"You should listen to my freind here. He is the dangerous one of the group...." As she pats the head of her Doshko.
intimidate assist: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Our Mysterious Benefactor |
One of the lashunta glares at you, but the other spews forth the plan. "He was planning to take over the event and execute a hostage every few minutes until the government agreed to leave the island. There's still some of our friends out there..."
"They won't be an issue." Radszam calls out as he steps into the clearing where the gala is held. "Reinforcements are on their way. Should be here in twenty minutes. They'll mop up the miscreants. All we need to do is hunker down here and make sure the guests are safe."
Radszam is correct as boats carrying military-style commandos come ashore within the next ten minutes. They fan out across the island and return with captured cultists and a few bodies.
The guests are released and the media response that follows shows your team to be the real heroes. You're each interviewed, along with thankful guests who invite you to parties and events in thanks.
Vossi seems overwhelmed by the attention and after nuzzling Tiktik affectionately, heads back into the jungle. You suspect this is not the last you've seen of your large feathered friend!
Thus concludes the adventure. Verify I have day job rolls and vital information and I'll aim to report tomorrow and get chronicles to you!
Chk'tarlsh |
That was great fun! Thanks for running OMB, I really enjoyed it.
Thanks to my fellow players, too. I enjoyed your characters and RP.
An extra big thanks to all involved for your willingness to accommodate a minor delay on kicking off so I could wrap up my previous mission.
Look forward to bumping into you all again sometime in the future - would be more than pleased to play alongside any of you any time!
Our Mysterious Benefactor |
I had a great time with all you folks, too! I may run a session of 1-34 soon, so keep your eye out for that if you're interested!
Your chronicles can be downloaded here! If you find any errors on the sheets, let me know and I'll get them fixed!
Chk'tarlsh |
Thanks for the chronicle. I'd be up for 1-34, too!
