Officer Swizzers's page

Thanks GM, I've got my Chronicle. (I'm really tempted to play in the next one, but I've already signed up to a bunch for the PBP convention and had better not overcommit.)

I've now filled that bit out. Here's my Day Job check:

Day Job (Profession: Law Enforcement): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Officer Swizzers ensures the prisoners are safely escorted to the nearest government detention facility for processing. Kidnapping is a serious crime, after all, and she makes sure full reports are provided to the Stewards and the Starfinder Society. Despite the race organiser's attempted cover up, Swizzers does not hesitate to recommend better screening of entrants and security along the route.

But as for the fabled Nurkop Richpick, the Starfinder Society has already taken her to many wondrous places. Perhaps, just perhaps, this is a mystery she can help uncover . . .

Great game, thanks everyone!

"Watch out--they're going to veer into us!" shouts Swizzers, as another competitor gets close.

Sense Motive to aid: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

"C'mon Tayyara, lend a hand--we can't let those goblins ruin the race for us!"

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

Swizzers forgets about duty and responsibility for a moment, and a wide grin appears on her face from the sheer thrill of the race!

@Ohmarc: You've got the mojo to give it another go!

Swizzers holds on for dear life as the ship accelerates!

@Ohmarc: Sure, it's all the same to me.

"No prisoners will be mistreated on my watch," Swizzers assures the man as she applies binder cuffs.

She motions with one hand towards the cage and says to her companions, "Could one of you help the victim?"

"You're only making things worse," says Swizzers. "Stop resisting arrest or you might end up in a medbay before a detention facility!"

Neutriad Flail - nonlethal + flanking vs Captain KAC: 1d20 + 10 - 4 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 10 - 4 + 2 = 25
damage (nonlethal B): 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

I'm away for 72 hours--please bot as needed.

Swizzers is determined to capture this pirate captain alive!

@GM: I'm happy enough that it kept one of the two attacks off Rogers! Alas in Starfinder, picking up a weapon doesn't provoke an AoO (my cheat sheet device is that there's only 3 things that provoke: casting a spell, using a ranged weapon, or leaving a threatened square)

Swizzers nods in approval at Rogers and lays into the disarmed hobgoblin with her neutriad flail.

@GM: Is the captain fighting unarmed? (or did he spend a move action to pick up the doshko, so he couldn't do a full attack on Rogers?) (aka, on the rare occasion when I actually succeed on a disarm, I want it to count :)

Neutriad Flail - nonlethal + flanking vs Captain KAC: 1d20 + 10 - 4 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 10 - 4 + 2 = 14
damage (nonlethal B): 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Swizzers aims her neutriad flail for the pirate captain's hands--"Drop it!" she shouts!

Attempting a disarm combat maneuver against the pirate captain's doshko.

Disarm (improved combat maneuver, disarm weapon property) vs Captain KAC: 1d20 + 10 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 10 + 4 + 2 = 36

"They never come quietly," mumbles Swizzers, as she races around a rocky outcropping and towards the sharp-looking hobgoblin she assumes is the pirate leader. As she moves, she draws a rare weapon recovered from the Arsenal: a neutriad flail!

Double move, drawing a weapon as I go.

Swizzers whispers to the others. "This should be fun. Follow my lead." Edging carefully and slowly towards the sound of the voices, she takes her spotlight out of her backpack. When she's just around the corner, she jumps into view, shines the spotlight in their faces, and shouts "Stewards! You're under arrest! Drop your weapons!"

"Demons are one thing, but we don't have to fight like them," says Swizzers with a sigh. "If there are more redeemable sapients in there, let's please try to take them alive. Internal affairs is going to be all over me as it is!"

If the heavy melee hitters want to go in first, Swizzers can snag the # 3 spot.

Swizzers rushes to try to stabilize and secure the fallen pirates, mumbling to herself about excessive force.

Swizzers snaps off another shot!

Compliance Flash Ray vs Red EAC: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30
damage (nonlethal F): 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

"Give yourselves up--you're outnumbered and outgunned!" shouts Swizzers as she fires a pair of pistols, hoping to take the guards alive.

Full round action to fire my compliance flash rays at Red.

Compliance Flash Ray # 1 (full) vs Red EAC: 1d20 + 13 - 3 ⇒ (1) + 13 - 3 = 11
damage (nonlethal F): 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Compliance Flash Ray # 2 (full) vs Red EAC: 1d20 + 13 - 3 ⇒ (13) + 13 - 3 = 23
damage (nonlethal F): 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Swizzers nods as well. "Yes, we don't want this situation to escalate any further, and a peaceful resolution is always best."

Still, she watches Tayyara to make sure the kobold doesn't have any ulterior motives.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

"Please cooperate with this investigation. Things will go easier for you in the long-run."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

I'll use my t-shirt reroll--Mimli needs our help!

Diplomacy Reroll (2 novas): 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 2 = 14

With my Steward "Diplomatic Training" ability, I only worsen their attitude for a failed check if I miss by 10 or more.

"Well, where would this 'Cap'n Odrag' be headed?"

Culture: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

"Okay, everyone stay calm. Wat, my associates will get you free momentarily. As for you two," she says, turning to the kobold and dromada, "I'll have to take you into custody--piracy is a serious offense and someone could have been killed as a result of this collision. Not to mention, you're now part of a conspiracy to kidnapping. Make things easier on yourselves and tell us where this 'towering red fellow' took Miss Mimli."

Once the ship has pulled up to the Flying Jenny, Officer Swizzers is careful to distribute her weight carefully as she puts binder cuffs on the criminals.

Officer Swizzers takes in the scene and suspects something very different than Ohmarc: piracy! With her holographic sashimono displaying the Stewards badge, she calls out: "I'm declaring this a nautical emergency and potential crime scene, and coming aboard. Do not run or resist."

Although the chaotic movement of both ships makes it difficult, Swizzers manages to fire a secure line with her hand grappler and shimmy hand-over-hand to the other ship!

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28

Officer Swizzers points out a potential railing on the other ship that could be the perfect place to aim for with the titanium cable grappler.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

"Sorry everyone, we'll need to investigate that--people could be hurt, and we're the nearest potential rescue vessel that could help."

@Lady Shrike: Alas, I've got some abilities to delay or clear conditions affecting me, but they don't work on others.

Seeing Lady Lanius hold her own, Swizzers races to the other side of the ship to stop the monster that keeps ramming!

Move action and then one attack on White. (I did my best guess at movement since I couldn't see squares on the ship; White may get cover).

Light Machine Gun (w/ Deadly Aim) vs White KAC: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
damage (P): 2d10 + 12 ⇒ (5, 1) + 12 = 18

Swizzers rolls out of her sleeping back and leaps to her feet, adrenaline kicking in as the shouts and rocking of the ship make the urgency of the situation clear! Grabbing her Steward-issued counter-terror assault rifle, she opens fire on one of the flying predators!

Move action to stand from prone, spend Hyper for a second move action (to get a clear shot on Black), and one attack. My Hyper Speed feat gives me 20% concealment for one round.

Light Machine Gun (w/ Deadly Aim) vs Black KAC: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (10) + 11 = 21
damage (P): 2d10 + 12 ⇒ (9, 1) + 12 = 22

Swizzers has never spent much time at sea, but she does her best to help keep the sailboat on course.

Happy with Rogers plan that I try to Aid Another navigator Trylara.

Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

My posting will be a bit hit-and-miss this week because I'm travelling, so please bot if necessary. Enjoying the game so far!

Swizzers holds on for dear life!

Reflex save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

"That line's loose! I can help!" shouts Swizzers as she dramatically leaps for it.

Rolling Athletics. If the check fails, I'll use my Live Air Celebrity! boon to reroll it

Athletics: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (13) + 16 = 29

Swizzers works furiously to retie a good knot in a loose rope from the rigging!

I don't have much for this one, so I'll use my 1/day Certainty ability to get a +2 bonus to the check.

Sleight of Hand (Certainty): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 6 + 2 = 27

"Steady there!" Officer Swizzers shouts over the waves. "Or I'll bring you in for unsafe sailing!"

With her Diplomatic Training feature, Swizzers can use Diplomacy to Intimidate (demoralize).

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23

Nah--Silicon Valley taught us all how to "fail forward" :)

"I'm on the jib!" shouts Swizzers, excitement in her voice. She's clearly getting into the adventure of the sailing race!

I'll try an Acrobatics check to physically reposition a sail.

Acrobatics (sail): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (15) + 16 = 31

@GM: Tagline now updated.

Swizzers is actually L9--I need to update that tagline! Sorry

Officer Swizzers keeps an eye for any hazards as we get under way!

Perception (+spyglass): 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 5 + 2 = 24

I think our Ace Pilot will take the Piloting check :) It looks like the ship itself gives a +2 to Piloting, the Increase Speed a -2, and the Stirp Armor a +2, for a net of +2.

Slotting Boons

Promotional

T-shirt: Once per session, reroll a single d20 and take the higher result, then add +1 for every GM nova.

Personal

Nufriend Skittermander (C1): Play a skittermander.

Starship

Skitterfriend (C7): Two different effects: if party numbers fewer than 6, a skittermander temporarily joins the crew during starship combat (see for details of modifiers) or at the start of every combat round the skittermander grants 1 PC a +1 bonus on any one skill check made during the round and, once per adventure, a PC who is being assisted can get dramatic assistance to reroll the skill check but this ends the skittermander’s assistance. (5 checkboxes left)

Ally

Spirits of a Doomed People (C6): If slotted and have 0 hit points and are dying, can check box to immediately gain 1 hit point and 2d8 temporary hit points even if not turn. (1 checkbox left).

Faction

Exo-Guardians Champion: Earns reputation with the Exo-Guardians faction.

Social

Live Air Celebrity (C10): Gain the following three benefits. 1) Once per adventure, can reroll a single failed Acrobatics or Athletics check. 2) Gain a +2 bonus to Profession (cook) Day Job checks and a +3 bonus to the check during an adventure if specifically called for in the text. 3) Once per adventure, when slay an enemy whose CR is equal to or less than your level -2, gain a +1 bonus to attack and weapon damage rolls against other enemies until the end of your next turn.

Slotless

• Private Vault (C2): Own private 20x20 square chamber in the Communion Vaults to store items and bring guests, and entire area is warded by a CL10 nondetection effect.
• Kadrical Rises (C8): Any new characters you create can worship Kadrical (details provided).
• Izalraan Megafauna (C12): When selecting a creature companion for any of my characters, can select Izalraan Megafauna.
• Nuclear Tools (C12): Can purchase a staff of nuclear vengeance.
• Drat That Rat! (C12): Will be told when relevant.
• Kiirinta Linguist (C14): Any of my SFS characters can select Kiirinta language.
• Data Scourge Savior (C18): 1/scenario, if would gain Frightened, Panicked, or Shakened condition as result of failed save, can reroll that save.

So combining ideas, we could do the following with our 6 BP.

1 BP: Add Spyglass (+2 Perception)
1 BP: Increase Speed (+2 Victory Points, -2 Piloting)
2 BP: Strip Armor (+2 Victory Points, +2 Piloting, -4 AC, -4 hardness)
2 BP: Upgrade Engine Tech (+2 Engineering checks)

Swizzers frowns, and then sighs. "Alright Kip, there's a race about to start and no harm was done. I'm prepared to let you go with a warning, but I'll be formally registering this caution with the local authorities. If you get into anymore trouble, they likely won't be so lenient."

I'll try a Sense Motive check to make sure Kip is being honest.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Knowing the others will take care of the preparations for the race, Officer Swizzers keeps her attention on the (not so young, after all) would-be pickpocket. "What's your name, sir? Did you just see an opportunity or did someone hire you to steal something from Wat?"

As for ship improvement options (Slide # 7), I'm pretty good at Acrobatics and Athletics, so we probably don't need to spend BPs on Maintain Rigging. It is a race, and we've got an Ace Pilot among us, so we could go all in on Increase Speed and Strip Armor.

"Why are you in such a rush? Is something wrong?" Swizzers is barely taller than the young kobold, mollifying the otherwise-intimidating presence of a law enforcement officer.

Seeing others chase after the child, Officer Swizzers secures the scene. "Everyone, make sure your possessions are secure and that nothing's missing. I've seen an 'accidental' collision in a crowd cover up for a pickpocketing attempt on more than one occasion."

Just above the crowd, a hologram of the winged-badge symbol of the Stewards floats and seems to be moving towards you. A few moments later, the cause becomes clear: a skittermander officer in full uniform, with a holographic sashimono of the Stewards' symbol, is maneuvering through the crowd. When she at last reaches you, she has a determined look on her face. "Apologies for my lateness, everyone. Had to make an arrest on the way in--export violation of some illicit Eoxian necro-grafts. I'm Officer Swizzers of the Stewards, on secondment to the Starfinder Society. I'm here to help with the race, and keep an eye out for trouble."

Sorry for the late start, everyone.

@GM: I still need to level Officer Swizzers up to Level 9. By the way, awesome work with the slides!

Chronicle looks good. Thanks all and GM!

Day Job (Profession: Law Enforcement): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Thanks for running--super fun game!

"Perhaps I can propose an alternative that will satisfy the competing demands of mercy and justice: exile. We could arrange for Renvir to be sent on a long-range exploratory expedition into the Vast. Deprived of his homeworld and friends, he would be forced to think long and hard about his actions. And indeed, the deprivations of comfort posed on such a journey may be worse than a traditional prison. Yet, it offers the possibility of redemption and--someday--a return to the community."

"Good job, team!" says Officer Swizzers as she awkwardly climbs down from the mech.

I'm back--thanks for the botting!

Away w/out computer—please bot. Thanks!
