The map for this place is sweet. I want to explore all of it :)

Lynn nods to Kaylee and Flenn, then whispers "Sounds like a plan! I could take a look around with someone else while invisible. Oooh, Flenn, is that a zeroball court in there? Wait for me!" She scurries after the mechanic.

So, earlier on we got info that there are security cameras in each room, and that locked doors are also alarmed. Since both need a computers or engineering to bypass, I figure whoever is wandering around needs to be good at one or the other.

"Snoop??" questions Lightfoot, a touch of indignation evident in his squeaky, high-pitched voice. "Among the tenants of the Dawnflower is honesty and for good reason. If you plan to engage in some base subterfuge or vile deception, then I want no part of it. We have been invited into this being's sanctuary out of his goodwill and I will not see it violated."

Yeah, Lightfoot is not only poor at deception, but he wants no part of it. I am happy to have him (unwittingly?) distract our "host" while those better skilled take to stealing the data.

05 - Whitescale Outpost Socializing - The Division Gamerip - Track 009

Kaylee is able to see that the door labeled "Karazen" has electrified current running through it that would both set off an alarm and also send a potentially lethal jolt to whomever touched it without disabling it first. The door to the infirmary is likewise hooked to the sensors but is not trapped. As before, she also sees an easily-disabled CCTV camera in the room.

(Area 6)
This large room has a wall of enormous windows overlooking a vista of rock and ash. Several tables are covered with discarded datapads. A gravball court is the room’s most prominent feature with the gravity plates turned off below the spongy green surface. (Zero-G above this area) You can see a computer (cyan circle) off to the side past the door to Area 8.

Karazen is there waiting for you, having just poured some tea into one of seven cups on the table next to him from an insta-kettle. He looks a little disheveled, as if he wasn't actually expecting to be meeting people today beyond just through a viewscreen. He has a datapad in his hand.

"Welcome! Please, let me introduce you to my K-BLD program, and its ability to control animals, such as..." He dramatically presses two buttons. The first opens the door (Area 8), and the second calls forth two draconic felines who obediently move into the room, growling/purring, before lifting into the air playfully above the gravball court. "...the Triaxian Drakecat!"

He looks at all of you with an attempted air of showmanship. "What do you think?"

(Bluff/Diplomacy checks are still good options, but so is Intimidate if you want to go that route, or socially-influencing spells. RP will, of course, net bonuses to rolls!)

"Admittedly, we, ysoki, do not harbor much fondness for cats--regardless of their origin or subjection to control." Lightfoot concedes, wishing to be both polite and honest. "It is certainly an unusual pastime that you have settled upon to fill your moments of time.

Flenn is trying to be as sincere as possible, and ask legitimate questions, but he is giving an air of being distracted nonetheless, and not doing a good job of keeping the attention focused away from the others.

Doesn't look like a great time right now to slip away. Especially not to get to that computer terminal.

Lynn peers at the Drakecats. "Wow, they're cute! Or are they fierce? They're a little of both." She raises her hand to make a V under her chin in an overacted show of contemplation. "So are you controlling them directly? How does your K-BLD work? Did you have to prepare the two of them specially to work with it?" As she talks, she makes her way over to the table to pick up some tea, waving it about to emphasize her questions.

Between your very on-point analysis, questions about the technical aspects of his programming work, knowledge of Triaxian Drakecats, and Lynn/Kaylee being rather distracting to the poor ryphorian who hasn't been in close proximity to another living being (...drakecats nonwithstanding) for at least 9 months...he is decidedly distracted and/or ensorcelled!

1d100 ⇒ 79
1d100 ⇒ 59
1d20 ⇒ 19

You also get the strong feeling that Karazen is decidedly desperate to do more with his research than sit here on an asteroid monitoring station, hoping for some day (some year?) to get a chance to present his work to someone who might care about it.

You have a few of options now:
- You could try to hack the computer to access the data now (2x Computers checks, with consequences for failure)
- You could try to get Karazen out of the room (given the approach Kaylee is trying) and then hack the computer (Bluff/Diplomacy then 2x Computers checks with lesser consequences for failure)
- You could use your superior numbers and weaponry to force him to stand down and let you take the data you want (Intimidate)
- You could even try to convince him to openly help you (RP and Diplomacy or any other skill you can justify)

What will it be?

"Oh, you two go ahead! I'd love to watch the drakecats for a bit here." Lynn waves Kaylee and Karazen away, then gives the ryphorian an emphasized wink and a smile. "Have fun!"

We didn't check this room for cameras. Do we want to do that and disable some before we give hacking the computer a go?

Thanks to Lynn's aid...

Karazen blushes a little bit but seems happy to show Kaylee more things he's been "working" on...

Kaylee:
Unless you're planning something horribly infamy-earning, this would be a "fade to black" moment I presume?

Meanwhile, the drakecats seem content to play in the zero-gravity field, and the rest of you are now free to do what you'd like in the areas of the complex that you have access to until further notice!

As soon as Karazen heads out, Lynn spins around and follows HK to the eastern half of the room to start taking a look at those computers. If there are security cameras in the room that someone points out, she first works to disable those.

Computers to disable security cameras, if needed: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30

Once those are dealt with, she carefully skirts around the field with the drakecats and checks over the computer terminal with HK. She back-seat hacks the computer, or at least tries to!

Looks like HK and Lynn have hacking the base well in hand. I would assist if they feel they need extra help, but otherwise ...

What did Karazen do with the drakecat control unit? Is it sitting around? Is there a possibility to hack that and rig it so that I can control it via my custom rig, overriding his controls? If we need to make an expeditious retreat, it would be helpful if they were on our side.

With Kaylee keeping Karazen "distracted," HK notices there are security cameras here as well. Lynn easily feeds a loop of Ktikul playing with the drakecats in zero-g through them, as she and HK hack into the system. You find at first only details on the K-BLD program Karazen has been working on - rather cutting edge stuff, actually.

But more digging through a firewall and fake shell reveals the sensitive Frozen Trove data logs Naiaj was after, all while setting off no alarms or countermeasures!

Some time later, Kaylee and Karazen return to the rec room, Karazen trying to nonchalantly "finish giving Kaylee the tour."

"...and then we're back where we started, with the rest of your crew!"

After thanking you all for delivering the supplies and for letting him present his research as well as providing him with a "pleasant distraction" for a bit, he'll walk you back to the decontamination chamber, telling you to suit up as he goes back to the control room to let you out.

A minute or two later, the chamber's lights flash yellow indicating depressurization, as the doors open, allowing you back out to the loading dock and the waiting Ercinee! Once on board, Captain Argente gives you all a thumb's up and lifts off, heading back out into the Diaspora.

With that slightly unorthodox solution, you have now completed this quest! Stand by for your next mission briefing!

"This assignment should be less stressful than most. You’ll be traveling to the Pact World of Apostae to meet with a representative of Arabani Arms Limited at their Karkaken Testing Grounds. This representative is going to provide an overview for some tests that Arabani Arms would like our field agents to perform on their most recent technological developments. In essence, you’ll have a chance to test out some new technology and provide feedback on it. Not only does the Society make some credits off this arrangement, but it also positions our agents to provide feedback on weapons they may well be using in the future."

Nevermind - apparently I had some time to post this now before dealing with stuff!

The shuttle descends over the drab gray rock of Apostae, diving between two impressive starships smeared with spatters of red paint resembling bloody handprints. Veering from the impressive settlement of Nightarch, the shuttle makes its way to a section of the rocky surface covered in standalone structures, many of which glisten with active power tools in the midst of assembling massive starship components or producing long-lines of smaller personal scale equipment.

With a sudden lurch, the shuttle touches down on an open platform, and the pilot hits a button open the hatch. As you exit the shuttle, a smiling half-orc in construction worker attire stands at the platform to greet you.

"I'm Crax Geshki. Good to meet ya, Starfinders!"

He'll shake your hands firmly but pleasantly, then lead you inside the nearest building.

"“All right, this should all be simple enough. You fine folks are going to be handling some experimental weaponry - most have never even been fired before - in a short live-fire demonstration—I’ll need your feedback on the guns afterward. Next, we have some new personal force fields that the R&D division have been dying to test, so you’ll get to inspect those and take some shots while wearing them. Finally, and probably where you’ll all shine the most, is a live combat against some new robots that we’ve developed and plan to sell to some mercenary outfits. We just need your combat experience to review these gadgets and gizmos before we can slap the old Arabani logo on them and put ‘em out in the market!” The large-tusked half-orc always seems to have a smile on his face as he talks and leads you past several offices and labs before reaching a weapons range.

"Annnd here we are! So, we've got two copies of each of the four newest personal weapons ready for test-firing. We'd like you each to pick one and take at least 5-6 shots down range, then give us your feedback." He'll then show off the weapons!

Babau’s Kiss (Small Arm) - This is a 4th-level projectile small arm that deals 2d4 piercing damage and has the bleed 1d4 critical hit effect. It has a range increment of 20 feet and holds 4 small arm rounds. It has the analog special property and is light bulk.

Matron’s Wail (Longarm) - This is a 4th-level cryo longarm that deals 2d6 cold damage and has the deafen critical hit effect. It has a range increment of 30 feet, uses a battery, has a usage of 2, and is 1 bulk.

Apostae’s Ire (Heavy Weapon) - This is a 4th-level laser heavy weapon that deals 1d12 fire damage and has the burn 1d6 critical hit effect. It has a range increment of 50 feet, uses a high-capacity battery (40 charges), has a usage of 4, and is 2 bulk.

Swarm Zapper (Sniper Weapon) - This is a 4th-level, shock sniper weapon that deals 2d6 electricity damage. It has a range increment of 120 feet, the sniper (500 ft.) and penetrating qualities, uses a battery (20 charges), has a usage of 10, and is 1 bulk.

Each of the eight weapons are currently loaded (but with the safeties on), with enough extra batteries and magazines for sustained testing.

Flenn:

HK:
You notice a design flaw.

When fired, you think that this weapon’s shot will arc to all targets within 10 feet of the original target for one-quarter damage from the initial shot. For every additional target hit, the weapon consumes an additional 2 charges from its battery. When firing this weapon in the range, there is a 30% chance that a successful hit strikes an additional 1d4 target dummies from this arcing effect.

When the last shot is fired, you think there’s roughly a 20% chance the battery will eject and immediately explode.

Kaylee:
You notice a design flaw.

When fired, you think this weapon will deal 1 cold damage to the wielder. For every round the weapon is fired consecutively, the cold damage will increase by 1 to a maximum of 5. If the damage reaches 5, other effects might occur.

After you've inspected the weapons for a moment or two, Crax comes around, happily slapping you all on your backs/carapaces. "Alrighty Starfinders! Time's a-wastin! Let's get shooting, shall we? Shooters to the line! Remember, the R&D folks need at least five shots from each weapon!"

He puts on safety goggles and ear protection, immediately stepping behind a transparent aluminum blast shield with several android, drow, and one or two half-orcs in lab coats, all with data pads who watch you expectantly.

Feel free to make attack rolls as you'd like. The firing range uses robotic arms to move its targets. Targets appear in 10-foot increments, from 10 feet away to 100 feet away, with another set of targets 300 feet away.

Each target has a base EAC and KAC of 21 and can register damage for data-collecting purposes.

He hits several of the nearer targets, but clearly shows less ability to hit further targets with the gun. As he fires his last shot at the distant target, he mutters, "Why not?" When the blast hits, Flenn does a doubletake. "Holy Maelstrom, wasn't expecting that last one to hit, that's f'r damn sure."

"If I may humbly, have a moment of your time, Master Geshki," Lightfoot expresses as he places the weapon back down on the table. "However, it would appear that there is a small matter that may have been overlooked in design. For it appears to me, based upon my own experience and training, that the mechanism within the weapon would seem to have a tendency--albeit a somewhat slight one--to eject the weapon's battery following its expenditure and, perhaps of more concern, cause that battery to instantaneously explode"

"I am certain Master Geshki, that such was not the intent of your employers and that, as the manufacture of weapons and munitions is a complicated art, one might expect small errors to be occasionally be made or for flaws to appear within a weapon's construction" continues the ysoki, trying to be assertive yet polite. "Yet, as the potential for harm from such an ejection--no matter how rare it may be--is more than minimal and, as I am certain, the longevity and well-being of your patrons is among the foremost of the concerns of your company, I thought it important to bring this matter to your attention quickly and, as best as I can manage, discreetly."

Once Flenn is done with his first round, Lynn passes the Babau's Kiss she was inspecting to the martially inclined mechanic. "Oh, you should try this one next! Its kinda small and short ranged, but it definitely seems like it'll pack a punch. Maybe too much of a punch for those targets, actually." She shakes her hands "Plus you're so strong, you'll definitely be able to handle the recoil."

Lynn's got to maintain her image!

If she catches Lightfoot wandering back to talk with Geshki, she steps over to take a look at the weapon he's complaining about to see if its fixable.

Apologies - my Roll20 game tonight started late and I had some stuff come up afterwards.

Kitkul finds that firing the Babau's Kiss is smooth and without incident, regardless of the magazine capacity. The whole R&D team give them a thumb's up and record a significant amount of data from the firing test.

Lightfoot - You bring this up to Crax, who turns to the engineers. They put their heads together for a moment then whisper something to the half-orc, who replies to you, "Sounds like an interesting theory, but our R&D gang doesn't agree and still want to see you shoot it to see if you're right or not." He gives you an otherwise welcoming smile. "Don't worry, if your fur gets singed, we have ample first-aid on-site!" He then goes back behind the blast shield and gives you a thumb's up!

Lynn - Nothing looks wrong with the weapon to your eyes!

Flenn - after the first shot, you take 1 cold damage as feedback from the coolant coils inside the weapon. Would you continue firing after this?

Kaylee will wince for Flenn when he shoots. "Um sorry I didn't say anything fast enough. Looks like the coolant cycle has a feedback that get worse if you fire it too fast. It's still gonna hurt but less if you do it more slowly I think?"

Hearing the half-orc not listening to Lightfoot she sighs and decides to take her five shots and five shots *only* but gives her gun time to cool down or whatever the opposite would be between shots to minimize the feedback. She'll turn on her combat tracking for each target too.

but after that first cold snap hits her when she hits the closest target her aim is totally off and she misses the four shots after that especially the super far ones. "The asteroid was a lot more fun than this," she mutters after dropping the rifle back on the table and rubbing her hurting hands together for warmth.

Flenn frowns after the first shot, then activates his energy shield and continues firing.

Assuming the temporary points from the energy shield absorbs the damage, I'd keep shooting. Does this mean the battery is drained prior to my awesome 10th shot? :(

Turning to Crax, HK says

Disapointed Tone: It seems that your weapon is not well designed. I have found several flaws already.
Explaining Tone:
Once - When fired, this weapon’s shot will arc to all targets within 10 feet of the original one for one-quarter damage from the initial shot. Second - For every additional target hit, the weapon consumes an additional 2 charges from its battery.
Third - When firing this weapon in the range, there is a 30% chance that a successful hit strikes an additional 1d4 target dummies from this arcing effect.

HK gives back the weapon.

Lightfoot sighs and then picks back up the sniper rifle."No sacrifice is too small for the preservation of duty and honor," he assures himself.

He points the rifle down range and fires.

Prior to Lightfoot firing the weapon, Lynn chimes in with "Oh, I can help with that Lightfoot! Gimme... just a moment..." She pulls out her datapad and searches for some somber backing music. After a moment to center herself and build anticipation, she ♫♪ begins to sing ♫♪.

The song flows through the air and wreathes itself around the ysoki. If Lightfoot accepts, it latches onto him and grows into a silvery lattice spreading out behind him in a cloud of metal.

Kaylee - That is a really neat solution I hadn't even thought of! You take 5 cold damage in increments of 1, but nothing else bad happens!

Flenn - You can indeed turn on your shield and keep firing, as another neat idea I didn't think of. However, after your fifth consecutive shot, the coolant inside the weapon overloads!

Flenn, DC 17 Fortitude Save or else:
Failure = You take 1d4 ⇒ 4 Dexterity Damage!
(Save negates)

However, after this, the weapon functions without malfunction at all, and the R&D team even give polite applause for your exceptional final marksman's shot!

Lynn gives Lightfoot some protection, as the ysoki fires down-range!

HK - Crax puts a hand to his ear, as if listening to something, and sighs. "I'm afraid that now our on-site lawyer who's monitoring the firing range through CCTV wants me to remind you that our contract with the Starfinder Society was that agents would come here and perform the weapons/shield/robot tests we asked. If you're not going to be keeping your end..." Crax trails off, his smile fading as he's clearly not happy being caught between an attorney and a hard case.

Flenn goes a bit numb from the frozen coils.

HK lines up with the heavy weapon and fires down-range! His 4th and 8th shots drain extra charges from the battery (so he doesn't get a 9th-10th unless he reloads, in which case both of his first two shots o the new battery also drain extra charges). But in doing so, his 4th shot hits 1d4 ⇒ 3 extra nearby targets, and his 8th shot hits 1d4 ⇒ 2 more as well!

The R&D team take copious notes, then give all of you a thumb's up.

Crax grins and pulls a cloth off a new table, this one covered in small wrist-bands with circular devices on them. "These babies are the prototypes of the new personal force field line we hope to launch next quarter. You wear them on your wrist or belt so they don't take up an armor-upgrade slot! The R&D gang would like for each of you to get shot by our weapons-range turret while wearing one of these, under controlled conditions. If not, that's okay, but then we'll want at least two of you to wear them when you go outside to face-off against our new assault robots!" The half-orc's (nearly) irrepressible smile is back in full force, now.

If you'd like to inspect the devices, you can make an Engineering Check!

DC 15:
The Arabani Personal Force Field functions as a force field armor upgrade (Starfinder Core Rulebook 206) that can be activated or deactivated with a standard action and does not occupy an armor upgrade slot. This field uses a battery (20 charges) and has a usage of 1 charge per round. It provides 20 temporary Hit Points and fast healing 2 to the shield. If the shield is taken down completely, it re-activates at the end of the wearer's next turn.
(If you acheived this result, please share this information!)

DC 25:
All of the above spoiler, plus:
You think you spot a design flaw. Anytime the force field absorbs damage, the wearer and creatures within 10 feet might be at risk of being dazzled or blinded for a few rounds. If the force field is ever completely discharged, these effects might be worse on a failed saving throw.

So, will you all line up indoors, or will 2+ of you take your chances with these devices in combat? ;)

"Apologies again, Master Geshki, but I spotted another matter that I thing should be considered before these devices are used in field testing" Lightfoot says. "If I am not mistaken, there is a strong probability that this personal protective device will emit a blinding energetic burst likely to have an adverse impact on the visual acuity of its wearer."

He attempts to appeal to the half-orc, but sighs and agrees to wear the device for indoor testing if Geshki insists. Should any of his allies express an interest in wearing the device, Lightfoot will convey what he has learned about the design of the force field equipment.

She affixes the force field on her already glowing and glittering dress and turns it on. She's ready to give it a go against the turrets.
