AOO: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16
B/So damage: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (5, 3) + 11 = 19

Once more Kastien tried to swing at the woman as she moved past, and once more he was just too slow. Apparently his new pulse gauntlet was heavier than the old one, and he still needed to get used to it.

He had no intention of letting that stop him at the moment, though, as he followed Glimma, getting her between himself and Zark and striking out at the base of her head.

strike: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
B/So damage: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (4, 1) + 11 = 16 Damage is doubled on a crit, plus knockdown

Kastien swung at the woman as she tumbled past him, but was too slow. She was already up and running by the time he recovered. Shifting into Graviton mode, he ran after her, giving the woman an opportunity to strike as he closed, in hopes that it would slow her down enough for the others to move in.

Double move

Graviton Mode:1, Coordinated shot +1

As the racer tried to move away, Kastien launched a quick jab with his pulse gauntleted hand. He then released his stored energy in a tumultuous BOOM!

AOO: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
B/So damage: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (3, 1) + 11 = 15

supernova: 7d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 1, 5, 4, 1, 6) = 25 fire damage

Coordinated Shot +1

Will double move instead to flank with Dov.

Kastien moved up behind the robot called Sisro, letting the buildup of energies explode outwards, engulfing the robot and the nearby created in flame. He felt drained, the photonic energies gone. In the back of his mind he felt the darker energies of the graviton pulling.

supernova, REF DC17: 7d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 5, 1, 3, 2, 2) = 25

Move and boom. Coordinated Shot +1 on the robot

Unattuned

Kastien, who had been trying to get behind the woman, cursed as she sprinted off towards the main body of the team, leaving him to run to catch up.

Photon 2, double move

Booster Effects: Kastien gains a +2 Enhancement Bonus to Saves vs pain and DR 2/— (stacks with one other source of DR, to a maximum of DR 7/—).

Nice! Thanks!

Kastien's eyes pulse with light as he shifts into his Photonic mode. He strides forward, gauntleted hand ready to throw punches and pistol raised to fire. Then he cautiously moves straight ahead.

Photon Attuned: 1

Kastien nodded his thanks and sat down for a rest. While he did, he decided to focus his mind on the photonic concepts of the universe. Diplomacy was king in all things.

Will recover stamina and prep Sideral Influence for Diplomacy

Once everyone had recovered from the fireball trap, Kastien headed down the ladder, motioning for someone with better eyes than him to keep close behind to keep a watch out for more traps.

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

The fireball catches Kastien completely unprepared as he was hauling back the hatch cover. Someone really didn't want to be followed into the tunnels.

Kastien staggered backwards, eyes blinking against the glare of the fireball. Every exposed bit of skin on him felt raw from the heat and burns. He was really not having a good day.

"Yeah, I remember seeing these around. Not anything I've ever had, but they were pretty popular back on the home world. i am assuming we are heading down through the hatch?"

Kastien is less interested in the meal replacements than he is in finding the person or group responsible. Oh and the race. They couldn't forget about the race.

Kastien waits for Zark to disarm the door alarm and get it unlocked. Once everyone nods that they are ready, with pistol in one hand and gauntleted fist cocked, he braces himself, then kicks open the door.

Kastien scratched his head and looked around. "I'm not really the coder type. But if that drone came from the maintenance shed in that video like the one witness claimed, we might be able to find more information there. I can lead a team over there if some of you want to continue scrolling through code."

Kastien continues to make his rounds, interviewing witnesses and generally building up a good rapport with the others at the track. It never hurt to have people like you.

diplomacy: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20

FYI - I will be busy this weekend and then travelling for Gen Con after that. I will not be able to post (likely at all) during that time.

once he completes his meditations, Kastien will take turns guarding the racer and interviewing witnesses.

diplomacy, SI: 1d20 + 14 + 1d6 ⇒ (14) + 14 + (5) = 33

Kastien will take the doctor's advice and rest in the green room. As he does he focuses his mind on the photonic nature of the universe, sharpening his senses and preparing for the tasks to come.

Full stamina and Siderial influence: Photon

Kastien saw the grappler laying off to one side and figured that they could really use that for cinematic coolness. Hefting it up, he found a likely mount for it and then tried to attach it, to no avail. Stepping back, he realized he was trying to put it in upside down and flushed. Glancing around and hoping no one saw his error, he quickly flipped it upside down and hooked it onto the racer.

ranged attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
ranged attack, t-shirt reroll: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

"Sabotage drone! Everybody clear the way!" shouted Kastien as he ran for the bot and leaped to try and tackle it from the air.

athletics: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Ranged attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 to improve the ranged weapons

Kastien made his way back to the racer and looked around for something to do. He was trying to figure out how to broaden the firing arc of the ranged weapons when Conrad came up with a pair of what looked like gyro-stabilized actuators. Kastien used to help his kid brother used to make small turrets that automatically fired foam darts at anyone approaching his room. Kastien bet he could do the same thing here.

Sorry, you asked for a Perception check, so that's first. Then the diplomacy is my Round 2 skill check

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Kastien continued looking for good junk - as if there was such a thing - but mostly he was interested in the other racers and the trackside fans. Hey, it worked for them last time. After all, he was the one that got Laboni on the Starfinders' side the last time they were here.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

Round 1
As the others worked on the racer, Kastien moved around the field to find parts and talk with the other races and fans. It turns out that there is a lot more to finding good parts than simply picking up the biggest, most complex thing you can find.

find parts: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

Kastien shrugged and put the token in the slot.

Kastien held the token out, but kept a firm grip on it. "Are we sure this thing's legit? Or is it another way to scam us out of our entry token ?"

Kastien reported back, Not yet. Ran into some heavies. Might want to send a cleanup crew. Headed to the track now.

Aloud, he said, "Boss wants us to move along. Leave him for the cleanup crew."

culture: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

Kastien looked at the symbol, then turned the card over and looked at it from another angle. Shrugging, he handed it back to Conrad and said, "No idea. Don't think I've ever seen anything like this design before."

The dark nimbus around Kastien dissipated as the combat ended, his eyes returning to their normal sheen. Looking down at the fallen, Kastien starts rifling through their clothing and pouches, looking for identification.

Kastien nodded to Conrad, then sprinted for the the android, his gauntleted fist slamming forward as if to punch straight through his foe's head.

Graviton Attuned: 2

Kastien is providing Coordinated Shot

Move action for Dark Matter to gain DR 3/-

attack, get em: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 12 + 1 = 28
B/So damage: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (4, 2) + 11 = 17

Kastien grinned, as he enjoyed being at the center of enemy attention. It allowed his more combat-able companions to focus on defusing the situation - one way or another.

Datastick gripped firmly in his ungloved hand, Katien concentrated to coalesce gravitational energy around himself for added protection. Then the solarion brought his gauntlet around for a powerful backhand blow at the nuar that was the target of so much attention. Unfortunately, concentrating on his attunement and manipulating gravitational energies sent his fist flying well past his target.

Graviton Attuned: 2

attack: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13
B/So damage: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (3, 5) + 11 = 19

AS the thug moved in to take the datastick, Kastien clenched his off hand. What had before looked just like a normal glove turned into a battle gauntlet and darkness moved around the solarian as he attuned with the hidden side of the universe. Kastien's gauntleted fist lashed out at his assaulter.

Graviton Attuned: 1

Kastien is providing Coordinated Shot

attack: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31
B/So damage: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (5, 1) + 11 = 17

In case it wasn't clear, Kastien has readied an action to strike if one of the enemies tries to take the datastick or attack Kastien in melee.

Kastien, is it your intention to give them the datastick, or just show that you have it?

Zark has the nuar spinning in circles looking for him before landing a well-placed shot from an unexpected direction. Lapodie, meanwhile, takes careful aim and lands a perfectly-placed shot of her own.

Conrad may act.

Show that we have it

"Wait! Why are we jumping straight into a fight. We have an entry token. It's right here!"

Kastien stepped in between the nuars and the rest of the group, the data stick raised in his right hand and his left balled inside his power gauntlet.

"Umm...I feel uncomfortable about this. Feel free to just skip me. "

A medical checkup was one thing, but a handsy bear in an elevator was the stuff media video shorts that haunt you forever are made of.

Kastien played through The Commencement

A stocky korasha lashunta with pale green skin mottle with darker green saddles and spots stood against one wall with a grin on his face. The power gauntlet encasing his left hand seemed to come and go as he subconsciously twiddled with a knob on its side. He is well armored, and carries it easily.

"Free Vesk 2, huh? Is that a serious commitment or are you practicing to blend in with no one wanting to make eye contact? Either way, good show. I am Kastien. A Seeker of Truth and follower of the Universal Way. Also, I like to punch things. "

Okay, updated

FYI, I will be travelling for work Jun 2-6. I should be able to post in the evenings.

Also, I rarely play on the forums any more, so I might forget to check. If I go silent for more than 48 hours, you might try pinging me on discord (bigrin42) in case I forgot to check the forums.

I will bring my Solarian, since he works well with a crowd. I will probably need to update his profile, though. It's a bit out of date :D

Looks good. Thanks again.

Thanks for running this scenario for us, Gm Tyranius, even while you were dealing with all the Con stuff. I enjoyed myself immensely.

Kastien stepped out of the fog with his pistol raised, looking for the creature that had just escaped his grasp. Casually he remarked, "A Musetlid walked into a bar on Rikel. The bartender said 'Oi! We don't see too many of your kind around here. Whatcha want to drink? It's on the house."

Kastien sighted carefully and pulled the trigger on his handcoil.

attack vs eac: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
e damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

"Pop, goes the weasel!"

Kastien climbs up to the stage, pistol in one hand and gauntlet raised to strike in the other. His senses were fully enxtended, even using his telepathy to sense the mind of the crazed Ipsoth.

As soon as he encountered the terrorist, he struck out, misjudging the strike in the fog.

"Here, he's over here!"

attack vs kac: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22
so damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
high hits: 1d100 ⇒ 14

reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

Kastien easily sidesteps the vines and moves forward, concentration set on dragging Ipsoth into the viny patch with him. With a mental effort, Kastien sucked all his stored graviton energy into himself, with a directional focus on Ipsoth.

Using Black Hole revelation. DC15 Reflex save or be pulled 10' directly towards Kastien.

DR 2/- from Dark Matter. Graviton attuned 0

1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
1d6 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Kastien reared back and slammed his gauntlet into the face of the nearby terrorist, hoping to send the man out of the fight with a single blow. He held his stored energy in check, waiting for an appropriate time to use it.

+1 to ranged attacks vs my foe

DR 2/- from Dark Matter. Graviton attuned3

Kastien charged straight into the nearest terrorist, charging up the graviton particles around him and readying himself to pull all the bad guys into one location.

DR 2/- from Dark Matter. Graviton attuned 2

In a fluid motion, Kastien slipped from Vossi's back and raced into battle. Along the way he hurtled a bar and slid into some protective shrubbery. Darkness gathered around him as his graviton powers went into effect.

Graviton attuned 1, Dark Matter is active, giving me DR 2/-

Kastien is not a sneaky guy. Cutting down Ipsoth with the heavy weapons mounted on the jeeps would be fine with me...if it weren't for the hostages.

{This is one time when I will have to defer. All my life I have dreamed of this moment.}

Finally Kastien resorts to words.

"Thank you for the offer, magnificent one. I will take it in the spirit intended, with no thought of obligation or binding. When you are ready for me to depart, I will. Until then, it is an honor and a privilege."

Kastien will mount up on the Renkroda when they are ready to head out, offering an arm to assist Jaqweh up.

If there is time, Kastien will spend the RP and restore stamina. If time is of the essence and Vossi is anxious to be going, then I'll make do with what I have.
