Deep Blue With White Highlights's page

Sheet looks fine. Thank-you for running that :-)

If he is truly repentant, I suppose that something could be arranged.

Day Job - Profession(Counsellor): 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32.

Obviously, I don't had an iron in this particular fire. If you want my advice, though... Once someone has done something... bad... it becomes easier to do the same thing again. He has already betrayed you once, and not only that, he *murdered* someone. Not in self-defense, but because someone he loved asked him to. What is going to stop him from doing it again?

Ultimately, the choice is yours. Leadership comes with hard situations, that demand difficult solutions.

Feeling slightly more hopeful, despite the appearance of some rather nasty saw-blades, Deep Blue jinks the mech back, and fires off another shot.

Laser Rifle: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (12) + 17 = 29, for 5d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 3, 5, 4, 4) + 8 = 27 damage.

My reading was that you couldn't use the same thing twice in one action (so, for example, you could not use Aim twice on the same attack), but you could, in theory, combine multiple different 'PP costs' into one action.

@Skorpahlich: Or at least, consider it for *next* round, since if we don't kill it then, we probably won't be around any longer (and at that point, taking a full attack from it in melee won't make much of difference - destroyed is still destroyed).

Sorry for the multi-posting; I am just getting a little nervous!

@Kyra: If you took the Aim action, shouldn't you have added +1d4 to the attack roll? I am only nudging, because you have missed by two, so with the +1d4 you have a 75% chance of hitting (since the GM kindly established that its EAC is 26).

@Skorpahlich: Statistically, we are only going to get one more round after this, so since we don't have the PP for Hurl, you might as well charge in and swing with the melee weapon.

Swizzers-BOT:

Once again, Swizzers directs their mech to toss some scrap!

Hurl: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34, for 5d6 + 8 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 1, 1) + 8 = 17 damage.

As his mech starts to lose power, whilst the opposing one shows no hint of slowing down, Deep Blue's skin changes to an unheathy green colour.

This is far from ideal...

Laser Rifle: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (7) + 17 = 24, for 5d6 + 8 ⇒ (4, 1, 2, 3, 4) + 8 = 22 damage.
Laser Rifle, GM Nova Re-roll: 1d20 + 17 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 17 + 3 = 32, for 5d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 4, 5, 3, 1) + 8 = 27 damage.

Swizzers-BOT:

Swizzers directs their mech to toss some scrap!

Hurl: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (11) + 17 = 28, for 5d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 6, 1, 4, 1) + 8 = 23 damage.

Damn it! This thing is strong!

Laser Rifle: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (8) + 17 = 25, for 5d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 5, 3, 4, 6) + 8 = 32 damage.

Somewhat flustered by the other mech's damage output, Deep Blue's shot is not as accurate as before.

@Kyra/Skorpahlich: If you are going to attack, I would encourage you to use 1 PP each round to activate 'Accurate Strikes', so that you can use your level as your ranks in piloting when making attacks.

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25.

Ignoring the EMP cannon, Deep Blue returns fire!

Laser Rifle: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34, for 5d6 + 8 ⇒ (5, 6, 2, 1, 5) + 8 = 27 damage.

If Skorpahlich does not use them for something else, I will also choose to use 2 PP to Replenish our shields.

@Skorpahlich: Sure. Sounds as reasonable as anything else, to me.

"Well, all technology is built upon discoveries that happened before them. I am a little curious who the 'third party' was, though..."

After poking around in the room to the west...

Perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (1) + 19 = 20.

...Deep Blue moves over to the final set of doors, and opens them.

Deep Blue scrounges what he can...

Perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (8) + 19 = 27.

...then moves on to the smaller double doors to the West.

Assuming that was both single doors to the east, I would go for the smaller double doors to the west. If it was *not* both single doors, I would go for the second single door.

Deep Blue tries to help Kyra sort through the papers.

Culture (Aid): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18.

Deep Blue, taking full advantage of his small size, delicately handles the fragile papers.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (18) + 20 = 38.

I will continue to examine rooms in order of the size of the doors leading to them.

Working on the assumption that bigger doors generally mean more danger, Deep Blue tries to doors to the East.

Deep Blue waggles a tentacle apologetically.

I could give her last rites, but I suspect that is not what you had in mind.

He then gently feeds Kyra one of her serums.

Serum of Healing: 1d8 ⇒ 2.

Well, at least it gets her conscious!

Tentacles writhing in concern as Kyra falls, Deep Blue tries to line-up a shot on the final robot.

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (2) + 4 + (2, 2, 7, 2) = 19 Electricity damage.

However, I keep rolling trash :-/

Deep Blue flies over so that he is above and behind Swizzers, then fires upon the remaining robot.

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (2) + 4 + (7, 1, 3, 2) = 19 Electricity damage.

Maybe? I am also guessing that it is meant to Swizzers highlighted at the bottom of round six, rather than Skorpahlich.

Deep Blue Flies forward for better line of sight on the final target.

Double move, since I assume boxes block line of sight, even if airborne.

Turning a shade of yellow-green flecked with red, Deep Blue lines up another shot on Black, hoping to finish it off.

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (2) + 4 + (6, 2, 3, 8) = 25 Electricity damage.

Flashing green in irritation, Deep Blue tries to finish-off Black.

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (3) + 4 + (2, 6, 3, 1) = 19 Electricity damage.

Deep Blue takes a pot-shot at Black!

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (1) + 4 + (2, 5, 1, 7) = 20 Electricity damage.

Since his last attack on Red did not appear to do any damage, Deep Blue takes a shot at Blue.

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (4) + 4 + (3, 7, 8, 8) = 34 Electricity damage.

GM, my post for this round is directly above Kyra's - 30 to hit against Red, for 30 points of Electricity damage.

Toasty!

Deep Blue lines up another shot on Red.

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (5) + 4 + (4, 4, 5, 8) = 30 Electricity damage.

Well, I figured that it would be either undead, or robots. Glad to see I wasn't wrong.

Deep Blue lines up a shot on Red!

Trick Attack - 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (5) + 4 + (2, 6, 4, 1) = 22 Electricity damage.

Sure. Why not?

Deep Blue, who is flying in the first place, calmly floats across the gap.

Deep Blue turns expectantly to Kyra when the matter of the locked door comes up.

I believe we have established that your 1 rank is all we have in this party :-/

Deep Blue sighs telepathically.

Her pain was raw, and twisted her into something that I doubt her original self, or her brother for that matter, would have recognised. Letting thoughts of bloody vengeance consume you leads only to tragedy.

Swizzers keeps swinging.

Swizzers - BOT again:

Neutriad Flail vs Eshga KAC: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21, for 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Bludgeoning damage.

Yes, this really is how it ends...

Trick Attack - Mastery: 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (5) + 4 + (5, 5, 8, 2) = 29 Non-lethal Electricity damage.

Swizzers - BOT again:

Neutriad Flail vs Eshga KAC: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21, for 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 Bludgeoning damage.

Actually, I am *not* trying to subdue her in order to be kind; if anything, I think handing her over alive is the crueler option, considering what her former colleagues may do to her...

Chilly!

Shivering slightly as his skin turns a deeper shade of blue, Deep Blue lines up another shot!

Trick Attack - Mastery: 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (2) + 4 + (3, 4, 1, 3) = 17 Non-lethal Electricity damage.

Swizzers - BOT:

Neutriad Flail vs Eshga KAC: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15, for 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 Bludgeoning damage.

Deep Blue lines up another shot on Eshga.

Trick Attack - Mastery: 33. Flat-Footed for 1 round.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (6) + 4 + (2, 1, 6, 8) = 27 Non-lethal Electricity damage.

Top of Round 3:

After several 'ranging shots', Deep Blue does their best to actually hit Eshga...

Trick Attack - Mastery: 33. Flat-Footed.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (3) + 4 + (4, 3, 3, 3) = 20 Non-lethal Electricity damage.

Given that I am going to act at the top of Round 2, I'll post my action, as well.

Deep Blue keeps targeting Eshga.

Trick Attack - Mastery: 33. Flat-Footed.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (6) + 4 + (6, 4, 3, 8) = 31 Non-lethal Electricity damage.

Deep Blue telepathically sighs.

An eye for an eye will eventually leave the whole universe blind... However, it appears that you have chosen the way of pain, willingly and willfully.

He then floats 20' up and 10' forward, and fires a shot at Eshga...

Trick Attack - Mastery: 33. Flat-Footed.

Underwater Living Holy Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14, for 1d6 + 4 + 4d8 ⇒ (5) + 4 + (4, 7, 7, 2) = 29 Non-lethal Electricity damage.

...but his heart does not appear to be in it.

Bold and Italics is telepathic. My PC actually can't speak - Stellifera communicate via colour flashes normally; I have a Mind Circuit granting me telepathy, and I was asking Eshga only.

Deep Blue attempts to give Eshga the benefit of the doubt... for the moment at least.

Eshga? What aren't you telling us...? I can tell you are holding something back.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35.
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (14) + 19 = 33.
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (17) + 19 = 36.

"Respecting the dead is one of the ways that we differentiate ourselves from animals."

More than happy to help with the burial. I am a Priest, after all!

Since it is an Int-based skill, I do not have Medicine :-/

Seeing the worse-for-wear bodies of Miiyu's group, Deep Blue cannot help flashing a sympathetic shade of yellow-green.
