Gameday X GM Kate's SFS 3-00: The Last Bite (Inactive)

Game Master Kate Baker

The Tam gets into a better position!

The robot slams into Kal twice!

slam: 1d20 + 22 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 22 - 4 = 36
ouch!: 2d10 + 18 ⇒ (2, 10) + 18 = 30 B

slam: 1d20 + 22 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 22 - 4 = 27
ouch!: 2d10 + 18 ⇒ (7, 6) + 18 = 31 B

It looks painful.

Umbro-187, aims through his sniper scope to avoid all the obstacles between him and the bot then fires.

Dual Acid Dart Rifle vs. Robot KAC: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 25 Sniper's aim and the scope bonus with negate all cover bonuses for Umbro-187's attack.
Acid/Piercing Damage: 2d8 + 11 ⇒ (4, 6) + 11 = 21

Once everyone has a chance to shoot at the robot, The Tam approaches and tries to cut it.

Photon: 2 attunement points.
Move 25 South
Use Stellar Rush to charge without penalty as a standard action, moving 10 feet then
Solar Sword: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33 for magic slashing with photon stellar mode: 2d6 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (5, 5) + 18 + 2 = 30 + Fire: 1d3 ⇒ 2 = 32
Least Photon Crystal gives the weapon the burn 1d6 critical effect.

Colthan moves to get a clearer shot at the robot then causes it to go slightly haywire before shooting at it.

Take 10 on Trick Attack for CR 13 causing FF.

Ranged vs ff KAC: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 29
piercing damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 4) + 4 = 13
Trick damage: 4d8 ⇒ (4, 7, 2, 2) = 15

Sister Maggie draws her pistol and moves up to the door. She shouts encouragement to the injured Ijtikri.

"You got him Kal! Don't give up!"

Inspiring Boost for 20 stamina. Sister Maggie spends 1 resolve for the extra 7 stamina-total stamina regained=27

Umbro-187's abilities to ignore cover allow him to hit again!

Colthan tricks it and hits! The robot reels back!

The Tam waits for the firing squad, then rushes in, dealing a huge and fiery blow!

Maggie makes sure that Kal is okay, restoring his stamina!

The Tam rolled a critical hit. It doesn't look like he rolled his extra damage though.

"This thing hits hard. Thanks for the inspiring words."

Kal works through the pain and ignites their solar tentacle in a sheath of plasma, then strikes again.

Plasma Tentacle: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
Fire: 3d6 + 20 ⇒ (1, 1, 4) + 20 = 26

It’s only a critical hit if 33 hits his AC, which it did. Also I completely forgot you don’t double in Starfinder.
critical damage total: 32 + 2d6 + 18 + 2 + 1d3 ⇒ 32 + (6, 3) + 18 + 2 + (2) = 63

Thanks for the catch! I added the additional damage to its total.

Kal doesn't quite connect with his tentacles.

The robot sends one blow at Kal and one at the Tam!

slam the Tam: 1d20 + 22 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 22 - 4 = 30
ouch!: 2d10 + 18 ⇒ (8, 4) + 18 = 30 B

slam Kal: 1d20 + 22 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 22 - 4 = 34

Umbro-187, again aims through his sniper scope to avoid all the obstacles between him and the bot then fires.

Dual Acid Dart Rifle vs. Robot KAC: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34 Sniper's aim and the scope bonus with negate all cover bonuses for Umbro-187's attack.
Acid/Piercing Damage: 2d8 + 11 ⇒ (2, 6) + 11 = 19

Kal unleashes a flurry of plasma tentacle strike, hopeful that they will eventually do some damage.

Plasma Tentacle Full Attack: 1d20 + 12 - 3 ⇒ (8) + 12 - 3 = 17
Fire: 3d6 + 20 ⇒ (6, 4, 4) + 20 = 34
Plasma Tentacle Full Attack: 1d20 + 12 - 3 ⇒ (12) + 12 - 3 = 21
Fire: 3d6 + 20 ⇒ (1, 2, 1) + 20 = 24

"Come on Tam that wasn't so bad. Tough it out. As for the rest of you...well...get him!"

get 'em, +1 morale bonus to attack the robot, Inspiring boost for 20 stamina on The Tam

Colthan adjusts his position slightly in case Sister Maggie decides to take a shot, Colthan again tricks and fires.

Take 10 for Trick Attack causing Flat-Footed.

ranged vs FF KAC inc Inspire: 1d20 + 13 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 13 + 1 = 26
piercing damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 6) + 4 = 15
trick damage: 4d8 ⇒ (2, 4, 4, 4) = 14

"I think we are wearing it down."

Between Umbro-187 and Colthan, the robot collapses!

Out of combat! Unfortunately, there is not time available for a ten-minute rest as the self-destruct timer is still going.

The only thing of note in the room is the statue: a brass rat crouching defensively over piles of antiquated metal coins, paper currency, and credsticks. The statue extends an empty paw, as if requesting payment.

Colthan investigates the statue in case it hides another passageway.

perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21

"Should we just tie her to a chair and drag her with us? I'm sure she intends to escape, If she hasn't already."

You think you see a place for another console in this statue's paw. You don't see a trap, but you didn't spot one the last time either. Perhaps the statue needs to be appeased.

“It seems you’ve deciphered the pattern—that’s one step closer to the exit.” Celita intones calmly, speaking through the comm units. “Starfinders, you’ve reached the second checkpoint.”

Table GMs, checkpoint two is complete and the Second Wind condition is now in effect.

Other Starfinders offer money to the statue, which appeases it!

You realize that escape is within reach and you feel revitalized!

All PCs can recover their Stamina Points as though they have taken a 10-minute rest without spending Resolve Points.

Another door opens up going the other direction.

I'll pause to let you set yourselves up and take any other actions you'd like before going into the next room, but I'll move you along this evening.

Umbro-187, reloads his rifle before leading the team through the door.

Even though she is in binders Colthan asks Umbro to help him tie Datch to a chair and bring her with.

"If a fight breaks out just drop her. Or use one hand to drag the chair. I want her in sight at all times."

She is probably scripted to escape but I don't want it to be because we messed up.

Noted on Datch containment!

You head down the other hallway and open the door.

Partial concrete walls divide this large office into several cubicle workstations. A statue in the southwest corner is the room’s most prominent feature: a brass rat holding a curved dagger in its teeth. The statue is speckled with dried blood.

Several demonic-looking rat creatures are in here. They snarl!

Colthan is first!

Colthan isn't near the door but I guess he can walk in first.

Mysticism? to identify: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (18) + 15 = 33

Assuming they are inimical Colthan will share what he knows as he distracts the reddish one before shooting at it.

Take 10 on Trick Attack for a 23 vs red.

ranged vs ff KAC: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21
piercing damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 3) + 4 = 13
trick damage: 4d8 ⇒ (6, 2, 7, 1) = 16

Kal moves into the room and towards the two creatures to the north, attunes to photon, and strike out at yellow.

Solar Tentacle vs KAC: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23
Bludgeoning: 3d6 + 17 ⇒ (4, 1, 3) + 17 = 25

Colthan recognizes esuradaemons!

Oops, they are daemons, not demons.

Colthan knows that they can cast spells. They are immune to acid, death effects, disease, and poison, and they are resistant to cold, electricity, and fire.

Colthan then fires on Red and hits!

Yellow then lets loose with a Mind Thrust on Colthan!

mind thrust!: 10d10 ⇒ (10, 7, 9, 9, 6, 2, 9, 8, 2, 1) = 63, DC 18 Will save for half, fatigued 1 round on a failure

Ow! 32 damage is still a lot.

Umbro-187, now at the back of the party with Datch, shoves the ysoki to the ground and moves swiftly into the room. Quickly acquiring a target, he swings his rifle from the ready position to the firing position and sends two acid darts at the daemon.

Dual Acid Dart Rifle vs. Red KAC: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27
Acid/Piercing Damage: 2d8 + 11 ⇒ (1, 6) + 11 = 18

I moved Kal's token into the room since he was still in the hallway.

The Tam feels relieved to have taken a short rest.

Back to SP 70 HP 53.

Seeing the eusuradaemons, the Tam tries to remember about them.

Stellar Mode: Photon
Mysticism: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

“Daemons? Aren’t they going to eat our souls?”

Swift action to deploy field irising shield. Tam is going to keep that shield up until we get out of there.
Move 25 feet while drawing Solar Sword. Same there, he’s going to keep that in hand until I say otherwise. During the move he uses Gravity Boost ability to spider climb along the cubicle or the wall. He has 20 feet of movement to get to red counting 5 feet to get around the cubicle. If red is down, he instead gets toward yellow or blue, trying to get to blue if he can without taking attack of opportunity. I’ve left a transparent Tam to show where he begins his round.
Then attack the target he managed to get in range of.
Solar Sword: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20 for magic slashing: 2d6 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (6, 3) + 18 + 2 = 29 and Fire: 1d3 ⇒ 2.

Oh, I missed that Kal posted earlier! I think I must have cross-posted.

Kal hits Yellow with his tentacle!

Umbro-187 shoots Red! Unfortunately, the acid doesn't go through.

The Tam also hits! The fire doesn't go through, but the slashing sure does.

Nah, it was my mistake. I misread the initiative and went out of turn.

Sister Maggie draws her pistol and heads to the doorway just in time to see Colthan clutch his head in pain.

"Colthan, stop goofing off and take these guys down."

Inspiring boost-Colthan gets back 20 stamina points.

Sister Maggie boosts Colthan!

Blue casts Mind Thrust at Kal!

Red takes a Guarded Step away from The Tam, then casts Mind Thrust on The Tam!

“See, it’s eating my soul, my brain’s hurting me!”

DC 18 Will save for half of 53: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Kal pushes the pain aside. "Push past it, The Tam. Your followers need you."

Colthan takes out Red as The Tam and Kal clutch their heads in pain!

Yellow takes a Guarded Step and sends a Mind Thrust at Sister Maggie!

Umbro-187, spins around and aims through his sniper scope at the closest daemon's head Deadly Aim before squeezing the trigger on his rifle.

Dual Acid Dart Rifle - Deadly Aim vs. Yellow KAC: 1d20 + 15 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 15 - 2 = 24 Sniper's aim and Umbro-187's sniper scope negate any cover bonus yellow might have.
Acid/Piercing + Deadly Aim Damage: 2d8 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (5, 7) + 11 + 4 = 27 13 acid damage and 14 piercing, I believe I can choose which type of damage is higher or lower when you divide it in half and it is uneven.

will save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Sister Maggie screams in pain and nearly collapses. She points her pistol at the nearest daemon's legs and at the last moment raises it to fire at his head.

Bludgeoning: 3d6 + 17 ⇒ (1, 1, 6) + 17 = 25

Umbro-187 hits, but only the piercing goes through.

Sister Maggie succeeds at her feint but fails at her attack. Nevertheless, the daemon is thrown off! Flat-footed from the feint to everyone.

Kal strikes with a tentacle!

Photon 2

The Tam jumps to the wall, walking there until he gets to the desk near both enemies.

Double move, using gravity boost to stick to walls.
Fatigued so no charge, including the one from stellar rush.

I note Kal's request in the discussion thread, and if The Tam wants to retcon his move, that's fine.

Blue Guarded Steps back into the corner and sends a Mind Thrust at Kal!

The Tam does not have enough movement to go into the corner.
He can stop moving and stay 10 feet away from Kal instead, but I wanted to:
- avoid providing cover to the other that are shooting,
- try to provide the Coordinated Shot bonus,
- have them be forced to guard step into a corner to use their spell like abilities, where they wouldn’t be able to move away afterwards,
- be able to attack next round.
If The Tam does not get closer, that means the blue daemon does not need to do his guarded step. That might be better as that would leave him in 10 feet range of Kal.
Also Yellow is not in the map anymore while red is. I think the wrong token got deleted.
I moved the Tam back and out of range.

The Tam tell the other telepathically “I can supernova soon, don’t stand near the enemies”.

Colthan nods. He then tricks the red enemy, moves away, and fires at it.

Update says yellow but the map shows red. Take 10 on trick attack for 23 to cause FF.

ranged vs FF KAC: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23

piercing: 4d6 + 4 ⇒ (4, 5, 3, 4) + 4 = 20
trick damage: 4d8 ⇒ (5, 3, 6, 7) = 21

Maggie failed her save. She should be at -65HP

Sorry for the Red/Yellow mix-up! I'll redirect Colthan's shot to Yellow. Also, thanks for catching that, Maggie! For what it's worth, I assume that you're all tracking yourselves more accurately, but tracking it on my end can help with noting who has taken damage.

Colthan fires at Yellow and another esuradaemon goes down!

The light from Kal's tentacle begins to spread throughout their body before flaring out like a starburst.

Supernova, Fire damage, DC18 Reflex for half: 9d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 4, 3, 1, 5, 5, 3, 2) = 28

They then back away a few steps.

Not enough movement to be in range for supernova without blowing into Kal and Colthan’s face so just going wait for everyone to get a chance to shoot or explode (delaying), then:
Photon 3
Move then use stellar rush to charge as a standard.

Solar Weapon: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17 for magic slashing: 2d6 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (6, 2) + 18 + 2 = 28 and a 1d3 ⇒ 1 fire.

“Three down, one to go!” Fitch’s voice exclaims over the static. “That’s the third checkpoint. Keep up the good work!”

Table GMs, checkpoint three is complete.

Umbro-187, uses his sniper scope to again navigate all the bodies in front of him and aim for the daemon's head before he fires.

Dual Acid Dart Rifle - Deadly Aim vs. Blue KAC: 1d20 + 15 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 15 - 2 = 25 Sniper's aim and Umbro-187's sniper scope negate any cover bonus blue might have.
