"I thought the ones we ran into were dangerous enough, I hadn't thought there be so many of these that made their way in here." Kaladyne matches the nod of the Starfinders her as she tries to go deeper into the Complex to find someone who might accept a report and give some direction in this chaos.

Kaladyne gives a cheer as Pinkie takes down the robot as she lines up another shot to take down the remaining robot in the melee.

Attack against Blue
Stunt And Strike - Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 If this meets or beats DC 20+CR, target is flat-footed against this attack

As Haldir goes down Kaladyne runs around back and fires a quick at the legs of the scuttling robot. "We have made a lot of progress, but we need to take them down and tend to Haldir quick!"

Attack against Yellow
Stunt And Strike - Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21 If this meets or beats DC 20+CR, target is flat-footed against this attack
Tactical diasporan rifle vs EAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Fire damage: 1d8 ⇒ 5
If both skill check and attack succeed (and they seem like they may have), target makes a DC 13 Reflex save or falls prone

Seeing the numbers swarm in Kaladyne readies to fall back. For the moment though she drops her smaller weapons in favor of a sniper rifle.

"Dealt a lot of damage, but we need to bring numbers in our favor before they overwhelm us!"

Attack vs Red
Tactical diasporan rifle vs EAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Botting for Antares

Antares moves out the alley to get a good look at the automated attackers and confirms Twila's identification. She fires off a shot at the most damaged one as she quickly tries to relate their remaining offensive abilities.

Engineering Check: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30

Static Arc Pistol: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 vs Red EAC

Kaladyne moves forward and out of the way of her allies as she fires a shot at the nearest of the robots. "Careful! Don't get caught in the alley! We need to move quick if we are going to take any of them down!"

Attack against Green
Stunt And Strike - Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25 If this beats DC 20+CR, target is flat-footed against this attack

Unfortunately Kaladyne is unfamiliar with this model of robot.

Kaladyne recovers her remaining serum from Pinkee and tends to her remaining wounds as she joins the party in continuing forward.

Serum of healing: 1d8 ⇒ 4

With the issue of traffic settled Kaladyne finds a safe place to rest away from the roadside.

Kaladyne will take a 10 minute rest but does have a couple points of HP damage. Unless anyone wants to heal her, she will reclaim her remaining serum of healing and use it on herself.

Female NG Verthani Athlete Operative 1 | SP 4/7 HP 10/10 | RP 3/4 | EAC 15, KAC 16 | Fort +1, Ref +5, Will +2 | Init: +3 | Perc: +5

Kaladyne takes a breath and tries to go for one of the vehicles as it prepares to continue ramming the way through the intersection.

Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20

She takes a leap over the railing and tries to dodge another vehicle as she brings her baton and smashes against the window, opening passage out onto the street.

"Could have also gone much worse." Kaladyne takes a distance from the fallen mech to try to find some safe area to tend to her wounds. "You did better than I would have there Pinklee. I won't try to talk you down though, continued improvement is what everyone strives for. You did excellent work there though."

Kaladyne offers another pair of mk 1 serums of healing to the morlamaw. "No medkit I'm afraid. Would be plenty at the office, but getting there would be a bigger horror than anything."

"If we can't rest here, we might want to deal with the traffic. Worst case we can find space along the way hopefully."

I say traffic issue.

Kaladyne shakes her arm from the recoil, but as soon as the mech moves Kaladyne takes a new grip on the baton and swings it into the rampaging machine.

AoO
Tactical Baton vs KAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Bludgeoning Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Kaladyne dives out of the way to mitigate some of the damage from the mechanized armor.

"Little busy to try to distract it!" Kaladyne responds to Antares as she does her best to keep moving and fighting as she swings for the machine's joints.

Stunt And Strike - Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 If this beats DC 20+CR, target is flat-footed against this attack
Tactical Baton vs KAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Bludgeoning Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

I admit I thought we had a 10 minute rest. Without that though, I don't have a lot of health to draw AoOs.

Kaladyne moves in trying to recall if she has gotten any advertisements attempting to promote the offensive power of this prototype.

Engineering to Identify: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

Already having a demonstration of the construct's power Kaladyne moves in and tries to take a shot at the lower joints of the machine to bring it down.

Attack against Red
Stunt And Strike - Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 If this beats DC 20+CR, target is flat-footed against this attack

Kaladyne readies pistol and baton as she follows behind the shirren. "I don't have access to my schedule, but this is something I should absolutely be able to fit in."

"Have you seen anyone else coming from Lorespire?" With tech malfunctioning Kaladyne takes the opportunity to learn anything she can as she looks in the direction of the Starfinder building "Any other Starfinders in the area?"

"Alright, good hustle! At this point I like to get this thing out and away from shouting in my ear!"

Uncertain if even a bit of stunt work might slow the ooze, Kaladyne still tries to apply a sweep of force to batter the ooze.

Attack against yellow
Stunt And Strike - Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 If this beats DC 20+CR, target is flat-footed against this attack

Kaladyne steps back from her partner to surround the severely damaged ooze. She takes a moment from acrobatic stunts to try and deliver a clean blow to the sonic spewing oozes.

Attack vs Red
Tactical baton vs KAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Bludgeoning Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

"I don't know what will bring these down, but despite the horrid noise, I can at least say that I've heard worse!"

Botting Popper

As the sound of flames roars through the air, Popper casts his spell again grabbing a discarded akitonian carving knife and launches it straight at one of the oozes.

Attacking Red
Telekinetic Projectile: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Piercing Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

I won't let them approach any further! Popper bold declares with toss of the blade but makes no attempt to approach closer for the moment.

Getting slammed by the echoing noise knocks back Kaladyne a few feet. Before it gets a second blow in she activates the newly obtained force field for some minor protection as she holds off at least the one.

Force Field Active, 1 Temp HP, 9/10 charges

Already a bit on guard after the previous attack, Kaladyne moves up with gun ready and fires her static pistol trying to hamper the oozes before they can close in. Unfortunately the moving crowds make it difficult to line up a clear shot.

Kaladyne looks toward Twila-5 in examining the force field. "I don't know about you, but this could help run into to the fight, at least provide a little more protection as I go in. You are free to take it if you want it though, but I might just need a bit more help out with some gear as we go along."

I'll take the force field armor upgrade and I'll probably use it to run into melee and help flank with Pinklee when I'm able. If you do want it, feel free to take it though.

"How are you both doing, Antares, Twila?" Kaladyne offers a concerned look as she offers, "I don't want to be forcing unwanted sympathy here, but I've been guilty of working forward hiding injuries. I want to make sure both of you are doing fine."

Coming to the cul-de-sac Kaladyne looks around to see if there is any else place besides the pallet crates to drop the supplies from Dot. Pause a bit she looks to the chaos and sees to anyone in need of help, at least something Kaladyne can provide. She heads over to one of the workers along with Pinklee.

Athletics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Kaladyne does her best to help move around the crates, but doesn't have a lot of success. "I knew I was out of practice, but this is a poor time for me to be stumbling around like this."

Kaladyne gives a nod in agreement two Twila's query as she follows inot the shop.

"Kaladyne of Solar Step Productions," she gives as a quick introduction while doing her best to appraise herself of the area and any more lingering hostile malfunctioning bots that might have been drawn by the group.

"Have you seen anyone else in the area that is held up here? Is this area safe?"

Survival to get bearings: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (9) + 0 = 9

After a brief glance through the maintenance pathways Kaladyne withdraws as she joins the party. "I'm used to having help getting through tunnels like this. Someone on comms or a map at hand. We need to make our way out unless we plan to sit here. I rather see our legs moving and try to use that to go in the direction of the Freemarkets."

I do have a mk 1 serum of healing that can heal the 1 HP of damage to Antares if she wants it. I don't have an option to fix the Stamina aside a brief rest though.

"If comms are out, then we out of contact with anyone that can help us out if this." Kaladyne readies a knife as she keeps an eye out for yet more automated assailants. She looks toward Haldir as she comments, "you mentioned the Freemarkets are near here? You probably were right, if we find our way there, we might find a few more answers. Maybe a way to find others to coordinate alongside."

"I almost rather see it firing off the grenades than be here for it to fire off another pair of those shots." With one robot down Kaladyne returns her attention to the remaining one. "At least then it would feel like an obstacle course rather than this unscheduled chaos."

She takes another shot trying to bring the sentry down quickly.

Shots not landing Kaladyne falls back to join with the group fighting the crimson robot. "I would be normally fine following orders, but for my health and safety I'm going to need to cut you off."

She fires off a shot at the robot's lower body in an attempt to knock down the glitching mechanism.

"Standard models. Pretty bland robots if you ask me, but they aren't here to win a show. Preprogrammed constructs, attached to their weapons, and quick to move in a pinch. Should be easy work this out around them."

Looking the advice of allies, Kaladyne holds her position as she draws pistol and fires at the farther of the two robots.

Kaladyne helps some off the train, but once out among the confused crowds she joins them trying to connect through the comms and in contact with her contacts. That is enough to delay her reaction as the robotic security moves into position.

Kaladyne unfortunatly doesn't have Computers. I'll need to leave that check so someone more trained than myself.

Kaladyne searches the front of the train for mechanical overrides. "Hoping someone was paranoid enough to add an manual control here somewhere. One of you take on the computer system, I was never in the running for this."

Kaladyne continues to hustle her way to the end, pausing a moment to appraise Pinklee's appearance to see if he could actually perform that bit of safety to protect passengers.

She turns away and doesn't show a desire to test it as she rushes down to end with Twila and Antares. "You both seem to have same spirit! Quick race to the end and let's see what the next leg in this is going to be."

Double moving 80 feet if possible with 40 foot base speed.

Despite the discussion Kaladyne was caught in an inopportune moment as she shifted to check her comms looking for new emails. Without a grip she is thrown and staggering for a moment as she collects herself.

She listens to Antares with a nod and makes chase alongside. "Do you know who is causing this? I rather know who the rival is here!"

Slow to start but builds up speed as she gets past the various passengers.

Staggered, move 40 feet toward head of train as move action.

Kaladyne remains standing as she moves slightly with some excess energy. Her hands repeatedly reaching for her datapad out of habit. She eventually settles settling in near the edge of the train where here height wouldn't get in they way. Signs of former and replaced cybernetic implants are obvious across her hands and neck, even as the skin shifts to match a rapidly changing backdrop outside the window.

Glad to take a distraction she joins in the conversation, "That is poetic and something I've known a great number would agree. You have a lot of excellent company in admiring the bits of freedom out there. I admit I have a harder time with that. I like clear answers and well defined goal lines. Working with unknowns has felt like among the worst disasters for me."
