Joe moves about and invites Kait'Lax to work around yellow cluster, using his height to aid and support teammate. His shield is up to cover from tendrils.
Life Sciense to aid:1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 12 + 1 = 15
Try to avoid damage! Keep kalm! Tolar, Jackokare, do not shoot! Better move to the northen exit if you feel safe and ready!
Is it "significant enemy"? I supose I can gather and use Entropy point usual way? THats relevant, because Entropy point provides me bonuses to many skillchecks.
Jackojare will put away his grenade launcher and pull out his rifle. That was two move actions, so I can't shoot this round, I'm going to try shoot the tentacle attached to ID. I wasn't going to drop my grenade launcher on the floor in case we have to run.
The tentacle, perhaps bored by Kait, detaches and goes in search of an alternative target...
who:1d5 ⇒ 1Tolar has all the luck attach:1d20 ⇒ 6
Which it succeeds in doing. Ichor starts pumping into Tolar!
Will save please
Kait'lax finds with the tentacles suddenly gone, the world seems to spin.
Will save DC 21 or you are confused for the round.
Dridapex looks fondly at the room reaching out to caress one of the fleshy walls with its proboscis.

Jackojare delivers a good shot that badly damages the tendril attached to Tolar, but it is still intact.
Khigsta and Joe try to quiesce the blue set of nodes, but without success. Luckily Tolar has no more success than they do.

Jaq fires his rifle at the tendril as wel
attack:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29 sonic:2d8 + 11 ⇒ (8, 8) + 11 = 27
He encourages everyone to finish off the tendril.
The tendril is almost severed by the sonic blast. Almost but not quite.
More ichor is pumped into Tolar.

There is a orange arrow from Kait'lax but I don't see mention of moving so I think Tolar's best option for killing everyone is the same shot as last time.
Tolar fires at as many targets as he can reach. Adding Heavy Fire.
Kihgsta and Kait work the yellow nerves, coaxing them back to a sleepy state.
While there are hundreds of tentacles, there is only one active one at a time, which can be controlled by any of the nerve clusters. So while Kihgtsa/Kait has quietene
d down another cluster, the last two are still fully in control of Tolar.
Jackojare takes the brunt of Tolar's attack, but luckily his assault is again mainly off target.

Id tries to identify if the domination is a spell effect.
Mysticism:1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28
Assuming it's nonmagical, given it's a weird alien tentacle: Id steps out of Tolar's blast range, takes a deep breath, and pops off another laser blast at the tentacle.
And with incredible precision, Jackojare takes out the blue nerve cluster.
Sure you don't want to direct that shot at Tolar? I reckon he is in the pay of the Hellknights....

Jackojare is proud of that aim I thought about hitting Tolar, since I'm pretty sure damaging him isn't considered PVP when he's under control like that. But I figure the nerves are almost gone anyhow and hopefully he will be free when we get rid of them.

It is Tolar's lot in life to be used as a weapon against his allies. If Tolar is still dominated after the tentacles are gone it may be best to just drop him, stabilize him, then go on without him.

Jaqweh joins the others in keeping up fire on the last remaining node.
If we have to switch to putting Tolar down, Jaqweh has a thing to make the damage non-lethal. Take 'em Alive is appropriate for a Steward Constable Officer, and just requires that someone hit the target for NL damage once first.

Joe is amazed by things happening around him, expecially Tolar raises anxiety...
Tolar Buntu! I demand you to stop harming mates! , - indignantly roars half orc, covering Kait'Lax with Bodyguard. Joe moves with the Kait'Squad to te next section.
Intimidate to Antagonize Tolar:1d20 + 20 ⇒ (18) + 20 = 38
Antagonize:
Foe is off-target, takes additional –2 penalty to attack rolls and a –2 penalty to all skill checks for 4 rounds plus 1 additional round for every 5 by which your result exceeds the DC (15+CRx1.5), or until it makes an attack against you, forces you to attempt a saving throw, or damages you.
Disabling bio security is priority. Stand on the it or proceed to the exit!
Jaq lines up and then gives the last nerve cluster a jumble of sounds. Joe encourages Tolar to get with the program. Or at least pick on people bigger than him.
Tolar and Kait must make DC 21 will saves or be confused. Tolar is no longer dominated.
A new tendril detaches from the roof and aims for..

He feel ichor being injected into him, and a strange mental compulsion to harm his allies...

Joe's observes as people keep loosing teir minds thanks to tendrils and vapors. Abadar, bless my filtered rebreather...
Continue working! Thats the nerves crosspoint here! , - Joe gives a hand and cover to Kait'squad, making a mobile spiked wall out of his Knight shield and antlers.
Kait and Kihgsta engage in an aerial dance routine that the dwarf gets out of time with, smacking Id in the head by mistake. Meanwhile Killdroid, devoid of alternative orders, continues to fire away at the nerve cluster, with a small effect.
Tolar keeps his mind clear, speeds up and fires. But in his haste he is way off target. Jaqweh narrowly avoids the dancing couple with his own shot. Dridapex looks on with an interested expression on his face. Or maybe concern. Who can really tell with such creatures.
You are all adult specimens of your species?" it asks mentally.

With a final mental wimper the last nerve cluster is absorbed back into the structure of the tower, which is now regularly rocking with new blasts every minute or so. Dridapex puts on an expression that might be "Worried", or might be "It's my birthday so everyone have a balloon and be happy" - it's kind of hard to tell.
Tolar, three will DC 21 saves against rounds of confusion, one per round, lets just see if anything untoward happens.
Id, three will DC 21 saves against rounds of confusion, one per round, lets just see if anything untoward happens.
The way through the room is clear, and seems to lead to another of those narrow precarious staircases that wind around the outside of the tower, just like the previous ones. You'd think given the hundreds of feet drop to rather sharp looking roof spikes below that someone would have installed a guard rail. But no. Health and Safety doesn't seem to have reached this backward planet yet.
It takes half a minute, but aside from a few moments of incoherent babble that Dridapex listens very carefully too... and then takes notes on.. Tolar eventually throws off the effect of the ichor.

*Sigh* Attack nearest creature. As I understand it I don't have to attack everyone, Just the nearest creature. But my only weapon at hand hits multiple people. If I decide to only hurt the nearest creature I have to spend a move action to retrieve my pike and no one is within 10 feet of me so another move action to move. What do I do?
