Longroads Coffeehouse 2.0

Game Master chadius

"Let's hope it's alone!" Finn replies, moving ahead with his crossbow trained on the draugr. "Have I seen it before? Lemme think."

Finn thinks back to that one time he closed a case at a haunted orphanage. He'll never get the cries of infant ghosts out of his head.

Recall knowledge, Occultism +6 Religion +4 despite Stitch likely having most of the info. Basically looking to make the check so that the creature is flat-footed to Finn's attacks for a turn.

Afterwards, he leans forward, aims, and releases a bolt from his crossbow.
Crossbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 121d8 ⇒ 4
Sneak attack, if applicable: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Stride, Strike, Reload

Hoping that there aren't any more draugr lurking close by, Nicole draws her shortbow and fires two arrows at the undead menace. The first sails harmlessly overheard but the second one manages to lodge itself in a rib bone, snapping it out of its fascinated reverie.

Finn tries to recall any additional information about draugr but just can't seem to think of anything. He then advances before firing a shot from his crossbow, but the bolt plinks off the nearby wall instead of hitting its target.

Rain in Cloudy Day strides forward and peers at the draugr for a moment. "Hmm...you look rather formidable, but nothing that we can't handle! Eat spores!"

Inspire Courage is now in effect~

The leshy flings a spore pod at the draugr, which gets applied directly to the creature's forehead and erupts into a cloud of spores. While it doesn't look like the spores themselves have any effect, the pod itself looks to have done some damage. Unfortunately, this draws the attention of the draugr. It shambles forward and makes a sweeping strike with the greataxe it carries in an attempt to strike Rain *and* Bella, but they sense the blow coming and manage to duck out of the way!

Roark shakes his tail feathers and dances for the Draugr (though Roark has no idea what a draugr is).

Performance, Dance: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
If that beats the draugr's Will DC, Roark gets panache

Roark moves to where he is positioned on the map and raises his buckler.

◆ Dance
◆ Stride
◆ Raise Buckler

Roark tries to do a little dance for the draugr but it doesn't look like the creature is interested or amused by the tengu's antics. With a sigh, Roark then moves forward and raises his buckler, ready to defend himself.

Bella runs around the skeleton. "Sister?"

Khiari comes running. "Okay sis. Flanking!" She grins. Bella swings.

Light Hammer vs Flanking with Inspire Courage: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 1 = 18
Confident Finisher with Inspire Courage: 1d6 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 2 + (4, 2) + 1 = 12
If Bella misses, she will deal 3 Bluedgeoning damage instead.

"Excellent!" Bella swings her Light Hammer across the skeleton's jaw.

◆ Bella Strides
◆ Khiari Strides
◆ Bella Strikes with a Confident Finisher, losing Panache

"Time to roll Meat, just don't jostle me going up those stairs." Stitch draws his pistol and holds on, guiding his ride up and around the stairs to surround the Draugr.

"Once we're in, ram it."

Two action Command, Draw pistol.

Why the hard way, always the hard way. Then he complains about the bumps. Give me better shocks.

Meat Wagon takes the long way around, keeping its distance from that great axe until it reaches position.

Melee (Overdrive): Bumper Ram: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Hero Point: Melee (Overdrive): Bumper Ram: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Damage (B): 1d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 4 = 8

Ready for some tag-team action Bella and Khiari advance on the draugr, moving to flank it. The confident Bella takes a swing with her hammer, aiming for the creature's jaw, but the strike just misses connecting. Still, the force of the whiff as the hammer sails past does manage to knock out a few teeth that were loose.

Stitch draws out his pistol and pilots the Meat Wagon over the nearby stairs to come at the draugr from behind. The construct whirs and chugs and attempts to slam into its foe, but somehow the draugr manages to move out of the way - though not by much.

Nicole gets closer as she positions herself on the stairs and shoots at Draugr again, flying two arrows onto it.
Shortbow Attack vs Draugr, IC: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 1 = 17
Shortbow Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 piercing damage

Shortbow Attack vs Draugr, IC, MAP: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 - 5 = 3

Finn locks another bolt into his crossbow and follows up Nicole's volley with a shot of his own.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 121d8 ⇒ 1

Reload, Strike, Reload

In case my turn rolls around while I'm asleep

Roark again dances to try to get the creature's attention.

Performance: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
That's not going to work. Subsequent actions will be pending -- depending on where the draugr ends up

Nicole advances on the draugr and fires off two more shots but neither seem to find their mark. Finn opts to hang back a bit as he reloads his crossbow, takes aim, and then fires. Unfortunately, his aim isn't any better than Nicole's and the shot misses. Not easily discouraged, he reloads in preparation to try again.

Rain, not wanting to taste the draugr's axe, takes a step back before flinging another spore pod at the undead menace. It connects, though only just, crunching a few more pieces of bone. "Come on friends, I know we can do it! Try to surround it but watch out for that axe sweep!"

Unfortunately, Rain's words herald an onslaught of pain as the draugr hauls off and makes another sweep with his greataxe that opens a major wound on Bella and cuts through Meat Wagon's metal with a loud *SCREEE*. The construct begins sparking in what looks like a very dangerous manner! Bella also finds herself splattered with rotting, water-logged flesh and the smell is downright nauseating; Meat Wagon also gets splattered but constructs need not worry about such matters.

Bella takes 16 slashing and needs to make a DC 17 Fort or be sickened for 1 round; 2 on a critical fail. Meat Wagon unfortunately suffers a crit, rendering it broken.

Alarmed, Roark tries again to get the creature's attention by dancing but it seems more focused on his allies that are up close and personal. Mind racing, the tengu...

"How deplorable!" Bella wishes she were a bit more evasive.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

At least she can quickly hold her nose and fight her feeling nausea.

"Meat!!" Roark yells in fury as he steps up to the creature and beaks it.

Beak, FF: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Piercing: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Bella luckily manages to fight down the nausea, though she's certainly not happy about being covered in rotting, water-logged flesh. Incensed by the draugr's actions Roark steps up and attempts to beak him...but doesn't quite hit the mark.

Stitch's face falls flat as the large axe rends a hole in Meat Wagon's hood. He gives the Draugr the stink eye as he pulls out a small set of jumper cables from the array of tools on his belt. "No time for maintenance Meat, get back to the job at hand."

Craft: Haphazard Repair vs DC16?: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 2010 = 10
Unstable Flat Check DC17: 1d20 ⇒ 9
Unstable.

With a roar of an engine and the billowing of black smoke (along with a few stray sparks..) Meat Wagon come back alive.

Turning to Bella Stitch swaps his mechanics tools for those for flesh. "I'll fix you up quick but careful of that axe next time."

Medicine, Risky Surgery vs DC15: 1d8 ⇒ 81d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 9 + 2 = 204d8 ⇒ (1, 8, 1, 7) = 17
Regain 9 overall. Damn I roll high on those slashing damage rolls!

Finally he engages Meat Wagon's throttle.

Haphazard Repair, Battle Medicine, Command Minion

With the spark of life Meat Wagon gets back to work, it takes a bit to get its wheels back underneath them. The ram tries to tenderize their foe. No rest, never any rest. MASH!

Melee (Overdrive): Bumper Ram vs Flanked?, IC: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 1 = 14
Damage (B): 1d8 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 11

Only two actions: Whatever counts as 'getting back up', and Strike.. poorly.

Stitch quickly slaps a few patches on Meat Wagon and somehow manages to get the construct roaring back to life, though for how long remains to be seen. He does the same for Bella, albeit rather roughly - but Bella thankfully still emerges from the process better for the experience.

Meat Wagon rights itself on its two tires and attempts to ram the ugly draugr but without much luck.

Don't forget, I think most of you have at least two Hero Points handy...

While I appreciate the healing, Risky Surgery takes the same amount of time as Treat Wounds, unless you have some way of making it as quick as Battle Medicine.

"Sis! Back up!" Khiari lowers her horns and tries to ram into the undead.

Headbutt vs Flanking and Inspire Courage: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 1 = 19 Let's see if a 19 Flatfooted hits.

Bella, regardless, takes her sister's advice and Steps 5 ft up. "Force it to come to us."

Man, I never read risky surgery/battle medicine that closely. Odd they did that. Regardless, still a success without the +2. I'll reroll the healing as a noncrit.

Battle Medicine Healing: 2d8 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7

If it hit, Khiari deals some bludgeoning damage.

Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 1 = 6

No worries & thanks for catching that, Bella/Khiari!

Losing her patience, Khiari lowers her head and attempts to batter the draugr with a headbutt...and succeeds! She slams her hard skull into the undead and tries to shove it backward, but the draugr plants its feet and remains in place. Bella takes a step closer to the action.

*edit* Roark's last attack was a hit, updated the draugr's damage total accordingly.

Nicole tries to recall if she has seen such a creature in her life. She then shoots her arrows at it twice.

Shortbow Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2 piercing damage

◆ Recall Knowledge, Religion +1

After observing the draugr in action Nicole thinks really hard, trying to see if she can remember anything else that might help her and her allies to defeat it. She's pretty sure that she remembers reading somewhere that draugr, unlike most undead horrors, aren't actually all that hardy. (Fort isn't that great.)

She then keeps doing what works best, hanging back and firing arrows - while the first one misses, the second sticks right in one of the draugr's eyes! Or what's left of it, anyway.

"I think we'll all like ya better when yer dead. Oh wait..." Finn shrugs, then launches another set of bolts at the draugr.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 231d8 ⇒ 1
Crossbow: 1d20 + 7 - 5 ⇒ (4) + 7 - 5 = 61d8 ⇒ 2

Strike, Reload, Strike

Finn also keeps his distance and keeps on shooting with his trusty crossbow. And this time, his first bolt connects and chips a little piece of bone away!

Rain in Cloudy Day rapid-fire flings two more spore pods at the draugr but his aim isn't so hot and both miss the mark. Still, he keeps up his inspiring oratory. "We're wearing it down friends, I can feel it!"

The draugr, definitely looking worse for the wear by this point, makes another swipe at Khiari and Roark with its greataxe but thankfully misses them both. It tries another single attack at Roark but whiffs that one too, even worse than the swipe attempt!

"Nope. Nope. Uh-uh!" Khiari hops and sidesteps away from the rusty axe and lifeless claw. "Sis, come on back and flank for a minute."

Bella Steps back in and Khiari tries to sweep the skeleton's legs aside.

We'll uh Hero Point that: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

But that's not happening. Khiari almost loses her balance.

Bella comes in to swipe at the skeleton with her light hammer. "This skeleton has quite some pep in its step."

Light Hammer: 1d20 + 6 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 6 - 4 + 1 = 23
Bludgeoning Damage: 1d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 1 = 4 Double if that Crit

"Maybe a hammer to the head is what we need."

The group continues to hammer away at the draugr as Nicole fires off another volley of arrows, managing to stick one into the undead abomination's knee! Khiari calls for her sister's aid and Bella steps up to help; the eidolon attempts to trip the draugr with no luck but Bella delivers a mighty blow with her hammer that sends shards of bone flying in all directions!

Yep, that was a crit!

The draugr doesn't look long for this world...again.

Roark again proceeds to dance for the draugr, hoping his tail feathers get its attention.

Performance: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Failing that, Roark tries to beak the creature anyway, before raising his buckler.

Beak vs Draugr, FF: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

"Kick it while its down Meaty!" Stitch hollers before unloading his clan pistol with a ringing blast of fire and smoke. As the smoke lingers Stitch stuffs the pistol with a new chug of gunpowder, wad, and steel bearing.

Ranged: Overdrive: Clan Pistol, Inspire: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 5 + 1 = 22
Damage (P)(Fatal D10): 1d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9

Command x1, Ranged Strike, Reload.

Kicking while down. Slashing too.

Meat Wagon spins their tires and rams into the backside of the Draugr, engaging their blades to chop n drop the dead. Like an overgrown ball field.

Melee (Overdrive): Bumper Ram, Inspire vs FF?: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 1 = 12
Damage (B): 1d8 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 9

Damage (S): 1d6 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 14

Roark tries desperately to gain and keep the draugr's attention but it seems that the creature has no interest in the tengu's seductive dances at the moment. He then makes a quick beak attack, to no avail, before raising his buckler.

Stitch and Meatwagon fare much better, however. Stitch plants a slug right in the center of the undead's rotten torso and then Meat Wagon rumbles in for the finish, slamming into the draugr with bone-shattering force that takes it out of the fight - and this world - for good! The construct then slices and dices it into little pieces for good measure.

Combat Over!

The immediate threat handled and (apparently) no other challengers showing up, it looks like you've got a little time to collect yourselves and lick your wounds.

Azlanti Ruins

Roark flops down in relief. He heads over to Meat Wagon to check to see if the contraption is still functional. As an afterthought, Roark walks over to the draugr and kicks it for good measure.

"Whew! That was intense! Is everyone alright?" Nicole is wary that they should continue their exploration of the ruins. "Rain, do you think it is a good idea to continue this? What will the Masters say about this?" she raises questions to Rain, though she is not implying that she won't participate to continue exploring the ruins.

"An exemplary idea, sister." Bella and Khiari perform a quick jig in celebration. "I'll have to focus on knocking it down next time it ignores the Reaper."

Bella grimaces at the cut on her clavicle. "I am mostly recovered, due to mister Steeltoe's actions."

I'm immune to Treat Wounds for an hour, so I can press on with my -9 damage.

"As for exploring the ruins, I'd love to continue."

Stitch lovingly pats Meat Wagon's dash as the Draugr is leveled and subsequently mulched into oblivion "See? Didn't I tell you those blades could do more than just cut weeds?" He drives out of the carnage and drops it down into park while he hops off to make some repairs.

"Its going to take me probably half an hour to replace those melted wires and fix up the rend in the hood. Maybe we should just take a breather for an hour, then I can give Bella a fresh set of bandages and we'll be good as new."

Meat Wagon should be at 10/26 for HP, and unstable. In order to re-stablize its basically like refocusing, takes 10mins with no check. I also can use the repair action at 10mins a check, but with no cool down like medicine has, repairing 10hp, 20 on a crit. So in an hour I should be able to get us back to top shape.

After ten minutes of wire replacement and soldering, Meat Wagon stops sparking. Stable

After a few sips of water and a grimy sandwich Stitch crawls up on the hood to continue with the repairs.

Repair, DC16: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28 Woot crit success, 20hp, back to full!

"Hot damn I'm good." Stitch climbs/falls off the hood, stuffing tools back into his belt "We're back in business, full go on our end. What about you Bella?"

So I only needed 20mins for those checks. Can wait for Bella's timer to reset or continue on when everyone's ready.

"...I will submit, to your surgery." Bella keeps a straight face. "Your... Meat Wagon, was quite useful."

Roark can only stare at Stitch, then back at the bald spot near his tail... then back at Stitch...

Perception: Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

"Spit it out already Feathers. Are you molting? Or you got a hole in your undercarriage that needs patching? Hard to see with all that plumage you're shaking around."

Is anyone else injured? Only missing HP I saw was Bella and Meat?

Clearly no love lost between Stitch and Roark :)

"I'm referring to the feathers you ripped out while sewing me up earlier"

With a flip of his tail feathers, Roark indignantly walks off to sulk a bit, bemoaning the bald spot and conveniently forgetting that Stitch in fact, saved his life.

"Well, I can save 'em next time for ink quills.. or maybe a toupee? They should regrow.." He rubs his own bald head and shrugs at the image of a forever bald Roark rump.

"If they don't come back in on their own I can sew in some falsies. Maybe some white, pink, and golden ones? Heh."

He finally gets to redress Bella's wounds, even trying to blood let around the heavy bruising to relieve some swelling.

Medicine, Risky Surgery vs DC15: 1d8 ⇒ 31d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 2 = 164d8 ⇒ (2, 7, 5, 7) = 21
So +18hp to Bella. That should have us all at full again after 1hr.

Khiari keeps her mouth shut as she watches Scratch dump antiseptic liquid on Bella, hold her sides at awkward angles, and wrap too many bandages on her wounds.

"When Bella was younger she'd try to do all of this herself. Got so angry when doctors tried to help her. She's learning to be more tolerant." She grins. "Sorry about your tail, I still think it looks cute."

"Hmm, I do think we should press on if we can," Rain responds slowly, clearly thinking over the group's options and odds while Stitch readies himself to start working on Meat Wagon. "I think our chances are good if Stitch here can get his incredibly useful death contraption up and working again! But of course we should always be cautious - if we encounter two or more draugr further in, then retreat might be the wisest choice..."

It takes some time for Stitch to repair Meat Wagon and patch up Bella's injuries but luckily he's able to do so without interruption. An hour later, it's as though your scuffle with the draugr never even happened! With everyone back in fighting shape, the question now is which direction to explore?

Azlanti Ruins

Roark pulls out his shortsword in case another unfriendly monster decides to attack his friends.

"Best be ready. I'm getting tired of sticking my beak into disgusting creatures."

Keeping her Light Mace ready, Bella points...

"This eastern cavern should have something interesting in it. Maybe some fresh water to clean your beak, Roark." Bella can't help but worry about the various hygenic issues of sticking your mouth into rotting flesh. Then again, she's slapped plenty with an open hand it just made her stronger. Builds character.

Nicole narrows her eyes to see what is beyond the eastern path. Seeing that what she is doing doesn’t help, she decides to follow her allies wherever they decide to go. ”I am okay with either way, as long as there are no undead anymore.”

"East works. About face Meat, we're rolling that way!" Stitch pushes hard on the left stick and thumps his greasy fist on the console "Half throttle, keep that bumper ready to grade any more deadies."

I think the light source is in Meat's grill. Stitch also has darkvision helping extend his view ahead. Reloaded pistol in hand!

Roark lights his Wayfinder.

Low light vision here

Khiari moves alongside Bella. "Sis, don't forget your torch. I held onto it during Stitch's... uh help."

Khiari has low-light vision and Bella is holding a torch.
