[SFS_Aerondor] OS#02- The Great Grav-Train Robbery. (Inactive)

Game Master Aerondor

Aramesh manages time for a wave to the adoring crowds as he zips down the ticketing concourse and into the grand vestibule.

Back in the main concourse the sole remaining biker guns his engines and gives chase

pilot keep pace: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 + 2 = 15

In a squeal of anti-grav engines the bike bursts into the crowded ticketing concourse.

But the exit is almost in sight for Aramesh.

Barat: 56 damage. May attack if he wishes. Inspiring words heard.

Piloting for Keeping Pace v DC 16: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 2 = 11

Hold on, I forgot to validate the ticket.

Attack enercylce pilot EAC: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19 for Fire: 2d4 + 3 ⇒ (2, 1) + 3 = 6

The hover cycle, seeing Aramesh take a second pass at the ticket machine guns his cycle, trying desperately to catch up. Further back there is chaos as the back bikes are systematically destroyed by the guardian robot they ran into.

keep pace: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

With thrusters hitting the red zone, the biker comes up behind Aramesh and tries to ram him.

attack: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (7) - 1 = 6

Aramesh pulls a quick switch to the left and the bike swerves to avoid crashing out.

Aramesh
Barat: 56 damage. May attack (3) if he wishes. Inspiring words heard.

That one's persistent. Have to give it that.

Piloting v DC 16: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 8 + 2 = 27
Attakcing bike's pilot v EAC: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25 for Fire: 2d4 + 3 ⇒ (2, 2) + 3 = 7

Aramesh truly does seem to have this thing down now. There's nothing left for Barat to do but blaze away at the remaining enercycle rider to convince him the pursuit is not worth it.

Fire: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Fire: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

And in a cloud of pasta-bake Aramesh shoots off through the station square and away from the befuddled pursuit.

Calling it here.

A mile outside of town you pull up. Arda's enercoptor sets down and the crew quickly bundle themselves and their package into the coptor and head skyward... before any well-meaning anti-air missile defences can be brought on line.

And away... to... who knows? Selling your artefact to Aramesh's buyer? Keeping it for yourselves? And then what? Retirement? Or has the taste for the heist taken hold? Only time will tell.

That is a wrap folk! I'll post your chronicles shortly.

Does the module say what was in the box? And yeah .... Kevan will just go back to being a white hat hacker and sticking it to the Man.

Nope, the box holds a mcguffin.

Great job crew.

Though I have to say, think we might keep back out of the field again for a while. That was a lot tighter than it went in our heads.

And Elena, 'fore we scatter, how interested are you in some legit work. Specifically driving training: you looked fantastic out there while we were rubbish. Wouldn't mind learning some new tricks from you - with compensation for the lessons of course.

"How about this, You help me arrange some nice jobs and you can come with. I'll teach you how to drive and we can split the profits."

I figure LNA-464 is probably bad at negotiating jobs so Maageri complements her skill set well.
