The robot backs off another 5ft and fires at Blinky
integrated elite needle rifle: 1d20 + 20 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 20 - 2 = 21 piercing: 4d6 + 10 ⇒ (6, 4, 2, 3) + 10 = 25

Everyone is up.

Laughting ast the shots miss him, Blinky presses the assault, smashing away with his giant furry paws!

Domakale slides into position and tries to bash it in with her solar flail.

Bludgeoning Damage, Photon Attunement: 3d6 + 20 + 2 + 1d8 ⇒ (5, 4, 2) + 20 + 2 + (5) = 38

If the robot does not fall from the attacks of the others, Twich will launch more missiles.

damage: 3d4 + 7 ⇒ (4, 4, 2) + 7 = 17

Between those attacks, the security bot doesn't stand a chance. Twich didn't need those missiles.

You can now examine the equipment in this room.

You can uncover 5 bulk of office supplies, computer equipment, laboratory equipment, and tools with 2 hours of work.

Is anyone inspecting the tanks as well?

Computers 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Mysticism 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20

"Yep, those are computers" Blinky shrugs.

"Anyone have an ultra-capacity battery or a recently deceased creature with aura-producing glands?" Blinky contemplates the dead creature in the hall.

Will drag that in, and also examine the tanks. Also keen to salvage items

At +19 to both, I can't fail.

"Hmm..," Pon says as he moves to each computer in the room. After investigating each one, he speaks up again, "In summary, without more power, none of these computers can be accessed. With power, I might be able to access the ones in the middle."

Well,m since that eel only died a few hours ago now, it can be used as a power source, This will allow the system to run for twenty minutes.

Computers take 10 from operative for 29

As soon as the system is powered Pon gets to work. "I'm seeing some research notes on this experimental power system. The variables seem to be cataloged by code numbers. Whatever they stated with, they found something later that worked better. The data here isn't comprehensive though. Maybe we can find more of it somewhere else." As he peruses, he sets up the data to be downloaded onto his datapad.

computers: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23

Twich also downloads the data, thinking that a backup set is a really good idea.

Will take 10 mins to recover stamina

Then ready to move to the next area if we have cleared this bit out :)

And which area would that be?

Apologies, I thought I posted

Pon gives a nod to the others and heads out into the hallway to the next door.

Before you leave, someone discovers a door that’s slightly ajar behind one of the recessed spots where a security robot was previously stationed

Blinky, being Blinky, chooses THAT door!

Pon flashes disappointment, "I missed spotting a door..?" he mumbles to himself. Despite his sadness, he joins at the door.

THAT door leads into ...

This large rectangular room is accessed by a set of stairs in the northern wall. Four massive hexagonal servers rise to the ceiling, surrounding a central platform with a huge desk and chair. Two long cooling grates line the east and west walls, flush with the floor. A large crack splits the ceiling, letting in distant dim light. Scattered throughout the room are dozens of crumpled sacks made of a heavy blue leather-like material. A clear, thick fluid coats most of the exposed surfaces and floats through the water in clumps.

This room is completely submerged, its ceiling stretching 60 feet high. The dais is 20 feet above the main floor. The crack in the ceiling leads out into the Ithillian Sea not far from the atoll, via the damaged remains of the ventilation system and a hole in the hull.

The thick, clear fluid proves to be harmless, and has a consistency similar to mucous or oil

Life Sci 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (16) + 17 = 33

"CRIKEY!"

"This substance as a byproduct from a fish laying eggs in the area, marking this as a popular spawning area. Judging by the amount of fluid coating the area, this is either utilized by a large number of fish or by a very large fish. These sacks are actually eggs, and each contains a writhing eel-like form"

"Probably big ones like the dead one we found"

"Happy to leave them alone, no reason to mess with the local flora and fauna"

"I couldn't agree more. "

Unfortunately the local fauna think you are about to mess with their eggs.

Three juvenile polskar sea serpents are on the attack. Please place your icons on the map

Blinky: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

The blue and green juvenile eels swim forward, clearly hostile. ((double move))

Pon and Twich are up.

Pon jets over toward the closer eel as he pulls out his diving knife. He then stabs at it after faking to one side.

Trick Attack; take 10 for a 33; CR 13 or less

The knife skitters off it's tough hide.

These creatures also have a 30ft electric aura around them. Make a Fort save DC 17.

Electric Aura (Su) Technological equipment and items must succeed at a DC 17 Fortitude saving throw or gain the broken condition for 1 round. Items are affected by a Pholskar serpent’s electric aura every round as long as they remain within range.

Red lights flash on Domakale's armor.

Armor's Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
That's the only major item that I think really matters at the moment that I have. My armor is level 10, so it has a bonus of 10. If I also need to make a save, see below.

Domakale's Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

That just succeeds. The armour stabilises.

((Botting Twich after 24 hrs))

Twich casts haste on her companions.

Red rises from behind a server and swims close to the ceiling as it double swims towards you.

Blinky and Domakale are up.

Analog weapon, and the armour mods aren't really used at the moment

Blinky sees the snakes slithering toward him and sighs — more disappointed than angry. He doesn't bother trying to talk, even though his wildwise implants could let him speak to them. Instead, under the pulsing rush of haste, he charges forward. His oversized koala paw arcs through the air at the face of the nearest plus-size eel.

Trick attack (Take 10) DC12 or Lower tricked.
Attack 2d20 + 14 ⇒ (17, 4) + 14 = 35 FF KAC

CR 10 and that's a good solid hit (Green: -42)

Domakale swims forward, and tries to strike it with her photonically charged solar flail.

Pon misses

Plink, plink, plink

magic missile damage: 3d4 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (3, 1, 1) + 3 + 4 = 12

((On which one?))

Red swims towards Twich, maybe getting an AOO from Blinky and attempts to lick Twich with their tongue. (30ft reach)

tongue: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (17) + 23 = 40 v EAC. If that hits Twich is stuck to the tongue (grappled).

Blinky and Domakale are up.

Depends on the path it took - but if AOO applies...

oops, sorry, serves me right for posting too late at night.

since it appears red was closer to Twich, we'll say that was the target.

((Green:-107, Blue: -8, Red: -55))

Red went in a straight line so it would have passed within Blinky's 10ft reach.

Blinky mutilates Green but Domakale cannot score a hit.

"No, no, no, I don't taste good. You need to let go of me..." Twich tells the hungry eel as she tries to get free.

I think that's an athletics check; I'll roll, and if I'm wrong as to the skill, please apply that roll with the appropriate modifier

athletics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Pon misses and Twich is still stuck

Red attempts to reel Twich closer to it
rcm: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (9) + 23 = 32 v KAC+8

Blinky and Domakale are up.

Blinky admires the tenacity, less so the recent slapping he recieved, and keeps battering away on the think hoping it will change its mind.
