Chorizal's cryopike plunges into the chest of one of the mummified morlamaws, and an instant later, the undead abomination explodes in a shower of ice and frozen flesh!
Chorizal's crit destroys Blue, but his second attack misses White.
J'Shun's entropy-fueled martial mastery destroys another mummified morlamaw, and Loki's modified laser blaster punches a huge hole in the one that's left! Kosigan, however, struggles to locate his unliving foe.
Loki's attack hits White (after making it FF) and does good damage.
J'Shun's second attack hits and destroys Yellow.
Kosigan's attack misses due to the miss chance.
Rattus is up, and Chorizal needs to attempt a Fortitude save.
@Rattus: Do you have any other ways of contributing to combat? We did the math, and (barring a crit) your weapon won't be able to get through the mummy's DR after cutting damage in half for underwater combat.
Chorizal (Needs Fort save*)
Mummified Morlamaws
Loki
Kosigan
J'Shun
Rattus
Bold should go!
This encounter is underwater. Please refer to Slides # 5 and # 6.
*Please attempt a Fortitude save vs disease as the beginning of your turn. In the unlikely event that you fail (the DC is pretty low), we'll have to apply some modifications to your rolls this round).
Flash-frozen flesh further weakens Chorizal's opponent! But the last of the mummified morlamaws continues fighting, thrusting razor-sharp tusks at both Chorizal and Kosigan!
Chorizal *just* makes the save, and his attack hits White.
White does a full attack, one on Chorizal and one on Kosigan. Results: Chorizal gets hit for 12 P. Chorizal, please attempt another DC 15 Fortitude save vs a disease effect.
Loki aims another pinpoint laser blast and the final mummified morlamaw is incinerated despite the vast amount of water all around it!
Loki's attack hits and destroys White.
We are off Initiative, though Chorizal, I still need a Fortitude save from you. Everyone else, usual reminder to update your taglines for damage taken, resources expended, etc.
With the aid of hydrojets, J'Shun quickly searches the room. Far to the southeast is a metal door leading out of the chamber. Inscribed with a mystic room, the door seems magically locked!
Meanwhile, as the adrenaline surge from the battle wanes, Chorizal starts to feel seriously ill!
A Mysticism check could disable the rune to unlock the door; otherwise, you could try to break it down or think of another way through.
@Chorizal: You fail the save and progress one step down on both the physical and mental disease tracks (bypassing the latent stage of each). On the physical track, you are "Weakened" and suffer both the sickened and fatigued conditions. On the mental track, you are "Weakened" and have the shaken condition and the DCs of your spells and special abilities decrease by 2 and you can no longer cast your highest level of spells (if any).
Moving quickly, the Starfinders pass through the doorway and onto a formation of basalt that is jagged and rough. In the distance, a group of black-robed morlamaws are visible, chanting in a strange tongue. They surround a large basalt monolith that glows with arcane energy!
One of the morlamaws breaks off from the group, holding up a flipper to stop you. "I am Farimther, leader of the Followers of the Eternal Source. Do not interfere with our welcoming ceremony!"
"I am SPACE ADMIRAL J'SHUN KAY FIRST SON OF CLAN SUMMERSWORD HOUSE DAVION LINE OF ATSU BORN IN FIRE! commanding officer of Kay's Kommandos. I order you to cease and desist all occult activities on the current premises immediately or we will be forced to destroy you."
Although J'Shun's sudden fearsome shout would surely cause most beings to shake in sheer terror, the fanatical cult leader Farimther obeys only the Great Old Ones. Mere mortals pose no threat to him! Or so he thinks . . .
J'Shun's Intimidate (Demoralize) attempt failed. (A fun post though!) We'll move to Initiative.
The closest token (White) is Farimther. Blue, Gray, and Green are other morlamaw cultists. Yellow and Red are undead mummified morlamaws like the ones you just fought.
This encounter takes place underwater. Please consult Slides # 6 and # 7.
Loki starts the hostilities with a powerful blast that tears a scorched hole in Farimther's embroidered robe! Rattus opens up as well, but his shot doesn't connect.
Although weakened by the mummified morlamaws in the adjacent chamber, the storm-spawned fifth son of Clan Summersword never fears a fight, and swims forward to meet the cultist leader in claw-to-tusk battle! But Farither's allies in the dark arts are devoted to their leader, and swim to his aid!
Botting Chorizal as doing a double move (Athletics is high enough to automatically succeed in swimming at half normal speed).

Ignoring the weakened warrior right in front of him, the leader of the cultists directs his attention to the figure he perceives as the leader of the invaders: J'Shun! "Ghatanothoa will manifest, and your sacrifice will pave the way!" Farimther shouts, firing a specially-modified underwater pistol at the same time!
Farimther does a move action to move and a standard action to do Improved Get 'Em versus J'Shun. Farimther and all allies within 60' get a +2 on attacks vs J'Shun for 1 round. Result of Farimther's attack: Miss!

J'Shun activates his hyper graft It grants him an additional move action this round. and his hydrojet propels him straight at Farimther.
"Cultist, your heresy will be purged from this world. Face me in ritual combat!"
The water around him boils as his blade absorbs entropic energy in the form of acid. Coming straight in on Farimther, J'Shun wastes no time attacking the morlamaw.
Entropic Strike (Reach) vs. Farimther EAC:1d20 + 14 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 14 - 2 - 4 = 25 Acid (Force) Damage:3d6 + 20 ⇒ (5, 1, 6) + 20 = 32If this attack hits J'Shun will spend an entropy point to apply the staggered condition to Farimther. DC 21 fortitude save to resist this effect.
Staggering Surge:
Staggering Surge
Vanguard Discipline
You can manipulate the entropy surrounding an opponent, causing them to reel from your entropic strike. As a reaction after successfully striking an opponent with your entropic strike, you can spend 1 Entropy Point to attempt to stagger your target. The target must succeed at a Fortitude save or be staggered until the beginning of your next turn. Once you’ve used this ability to attempt to stagger a creature, that creature is immune to your staggering surge for 24 hours.
Entropy points +2 (+1 if Staggering Surge is used.), EAC 31 KAC 33 this round.

Sorry for vanishing. Too much to do to get ready for the holiday. Kosigan has blindsense electricity 60 feet, so it should have some idea where the enemy is.

"I'm going to need some sick leave after this Space Admiral," Chorizal says as all the morlimaw bodies rushing around him make him feel disoriented and queasy.
Still, things need stabbing so stabbing he will do.
He begins by jabbing his borrowed cryopike at the one that botched it's charge against him.
The closest token (White) is Farimther. Blue, Gray, and Green are other morlamaw cultists. Yellow and Red are undead mummified morlamaws like the ones you just fought.

Rattus tries to swim into position for a clear shot at Farimther, but the erratic currents keep in place. He tries to snap off a shot anyway, but his gun jams!
Botting Rattus as (failing) a swim check and then rolling a nat 1 on an attack roll.
