Flwon's page

Thanks for running this for us, Dennis.

Thanks, everyone, for a good game. I enjoyed it.

Flwon moves forward to both have a better view and be in range of the remaining drone. As they move their mind reaches out for a fallen branch, or appropriate rock to fling at the drone, hoping to knock it down.
Stride, cast telekinetic projectile (2 actions)

spell attack vs drone 5: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
potential B damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 4) = 6

Flwon does not like these drones firing at them. They see one of them rise above, which gives perfect line of sight. The pahtra gathers energy from the time stream and releases it as high energy shards of force.

3 action force barrage
force damage: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 3, 4) + 3 = 14

Aimed at drone 2. If it is allowed and the damage takes down drone 2 before all 3 hit, Flwon would redirect to drone 4

"Thanks, Chk Chk. That eases the pain a little. I guess I should rely on time to heal the rest."

Flwon politely asks Chk Chk if they can use that skill to heal them as well, please.

Hey team,
Flwon would definitely like to take a brief break to make sure we are all relatively healed before proceeding.

I can cast *soothe* though it only affects one person. I also have a medpatch.

Who needs healing? Who else has some healing capability?

Reflex vs DC 16: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20 1 damage

Flwon does a better job of dodging the next shard and tries to use what they've observed of the timing of the falls to find a safe path through.

Acrobatics+shield bonus: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 = 10 2 actions (but not looking good)

Feeling a little fragile and without sufficient time to heal anyone, Flwon casts shield, in case they need to block more damage. 1 action
GM, will you allow this use of the spell? I figure that the AC boost won't help, but if I fail the next reflex save I may want to shield block to reduce the damage.

OK. That makes more sense. Sorry, I misunderstood.

So we are both around half health.

If Iseph took 5 damage for a failed reflex save, how are they at -9 HP (actually 0 HP and dying 1) unless they were already down? I think something went astray here.

Also, had Flwon realised someone was that injured they would certainly have cast soothe prior to setting out.

Reflex vs DC 17: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
"Oof! That hurt. The full 5 damage

Flwon hears the warning a little too late. They fail to dodge a large chunk of debris as they turn to see their android friend collapse. See question in discussion thread

To Glerak

"Lead the way. I am sure we can work out what is going on and needs to happen."

To the team

"What say you? Everyone up for a jaunt?"

Flwon attempts to look through time and memories to pull together relevant information about the Sivv and what they can glean about the Alithee to gain some clue as to what the threat is or how they can help these people.

Society: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Flwon adopts what they hope is accepted as a respectful though not subservient posture and begins to make arcane gestures, producing symbols of time and demonstrations of how it affects all creatures. They hope to establish a basic shared understanding on which to build.

Arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Poke, poke, dear GM.

Any Hero Points from that last encounter?

Flwon sighs at having caused such pain and lets the creature flee, hoping that it will heal well and cause no others any problems.

Flwon realizes Revizin is looking a little beaten up, then the vesk perks up a bit. The pahtra's mental debate between casting soothe or helping eliminate the threat, leans toward the latter.

Flwon repeats the previous spell combination:
spell attack eldritch lance: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
mental damage: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 5) = 9

shield

Flwon likes the idea of scaring the creatures away, but isn't quite sure how to achieve that. They reach deep into the dark spaces of time and stars to find something scary to aim at the remaining critter.

spell attack eldritch lance: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
mental damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6
2 actions

Then they cast shield in case this backfires and only attracts more attention.
1 action

Flwon rocks back on their heels, gathers magic from the timestream, and sends three crackling shards of magic toward the creature who keeps assaulting them. 3 action force barrage

force damage: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 3, 1) + 3 = 8

This action lifts their spirits, driving away the fear.

It's a basic save, which means half damage (2) on a success. Does Flwon have something that changes that?

Nah, I was in too much of a rush when posting. I realised my likely error later but this is the first time I had a chance to come back and check. Had already corrected before reading your post. Sorry about that.

Will save vs DC18: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Fort save vs DC16: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Frightened 1, suppressed 1 round, no poison (whew!)

Fort save versus DC16 spores: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
The pahtra sneezes violently, "Grrr, plants!" 2 damage applied for a crit fail.

Flwon responds to the bite with a loud, "OUCH! I am not food!" 8 damage applied
They mentally fling the largest rock they can mentally manage at the creature, hoping to deter it. telekinetic projectile 2 actions
spell attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 potential bludgeoning damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8
Edit to add: Hero Point the attack roll
spell attack reroll: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
The first rock they tried was too heavy. The future flashed through Flwon's mind. Putting aside their pride, Flwon selected a more appropriate geologic item to propel toward the creature.

Flwon releases their quantum field, I've got to learn how to move that thing! no action, not spending the action to sustain They recast shield 1 action

Question - Are the ferns just all around us (like a hazard) or are there specific positions for them?

Aargh! I forgot I had force barrage because I was looking at my HLO sheet and it isn't there.
Ah well, not unreasonable actions anyway.

Will save vs DC 18: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Flwon feels a chill run through them and looks up to see two behemoths charging toward the group. They instinctively try to slow the nearest.

one action - Warp Reality
Your quantum field activates and lasts as long as you Sustain it (up to 10 minutes) or until the end of your next turn. Your quantum field is a 15-foot-radius burst centered on a point you choose within 100 feet. While your quantum field is active, you can use actions that have the anchoring trait. Your quantum field’s other specific effects are determined by your paradox. You can choose whether creatures in the area are affected by your quantum field.
Quantum Field (Precog)
You have a modicum of control of the flow of time that surrounds you, allowing you to speed yourself and others up, or decrease the flow of time for others. An enemy creature that uses a move action inside your quantum field takes a –5-foot status penalty to its Speed during that action. You and your allies gain a +5-foot status bonus to Speed when you use a move action inside your quantum field during that action.

Flwon makes a quick assessment and realises the creatures are out of reach of any of their spells, or even their clunky pistol and grenade. *Probably wise not to stay grouped up like this*, they think. Taking action, they move, albeit slower than they'd like, to where they may have some cover. One action stride

Then they cast shield as a precautionary measure.

"There is a great disturbance everywhere, time itself may be reaching out." Flwon seems mesmerised by the various anomalies, though doesn't appear to have immediately noticed the two large creatures in front of them, despite the near deafening greeting.

A1. Drained Rock Formation
Flwon moves to take a closer look at the nearby rocks.
Initial Perception vs DC 13: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
"They look like rocks."

"Let me take a closer look." Flwon puts their nose close to the rocks, whiskers twitching.
Perception to survey: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

A2. Charged Rock Formation
Moving to the glowing rocks, Flwon initially stands back, looking from what they think is a safe distance.
Initial Perception vs DC 13: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23
"Be careful with this lot," the pahtra warns the others, "There's a bunch of glowing motes above them and I don't like that humming sound. I don't know enough about these things, so I'm staying away."
Flwon is untrained in all relevant skills.

A3. Magitech Tower
At the tower, Flwon is clearly interested in the engravings but initially hones in on the magitech aspects. "Now this looks more interesting, and safer."
Crafting for magitech survey: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

A4. Magitech Consoles
"Nufriend indeed! These look facinating. I'd be happy to see what I can do with them."
Vidgame Lore survey to understand the consoles: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Edited to add "Well that's disappointing, they don't seem to be loaded with anything to play, at all."

GM Dennis, I am not sure if A2 counted as a round given there was no survey check. If not, Flwon will stay here and see if they can learn more.

"Let me check these runes and gemstones too. They look intriguing."
Society for runic survey: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

Also, map? I don't see anything in the slides after the Mission Briefing.

A dark pahtra quietly enters as the android is speaking. They take a corner seat, facing into the room.

"Greetings. I am Flwon, in the now, in the before, in the after.

"It seems that time for this planet is slipping away, or is it?"

Their solemn demeanor disappears with a subtle movement, like a wave progressing through the body from their ears down. Flwon's long tail begins to twitch slightly, just at the tip. "Hey, all. This could be exciting, no? Better than a vidgame even!" A light and boisterous tone is an uplifting contrast to the previous statements.

"I'm always up for the unknown. I'm pretty spry, not bad with basic computers, and can channel a bit of energy from the mutable time streams. Hopefully I'll be of some use to the team. I'm very new at all this."

I hope I am now ready.

GM Dennis, please let me know if you have a preference for how the header is formatted, I will adjust accordingly.
