Raatchet's page

Perhaps she should have been looking at the ooze instead of the cameras.

"Looks like I'm going to need some nanoweave towels to handle this mess. And when I need nanoweave towels, I choose Brainy. Brainy Towels - specially engineered by contemplatives to handle your most disgusting messes. Brainy Towels - it's the brainy choice!"

You hear a *Huff!* *Puff!* as an out-of-breath ysoki approaches you from behind with a crate in tow!

"Hi! Guys! *catch breath* I was told... *catch breath* ...to bring this to you! *catch breath* My name's Raatchet!"

He pops open the crate and inside is probably what amounts to two month supply of Brainy Towels.

"Zo! said to use this while you rest and clean up... *catch breath* ...and keep up the sponsorship pitches!"

One fan favor to Keyona - particularly from Zo!

"Selene, Bruf, Steelscales, Twich!!! Whew!!! Good to see you all safe!!!

"I'm helping to coordinate the logistics of moving all landing parties back to our ships as we prepare to depart after this great victory!!!"

Raatchet looks around at the godblood oozes... He pulls up an info feed and after quickly scanning some info, realizes what you fought against.

"WOW! Those things are NASTY!!! The four of you took on three of those things?!?!? Daaaaaaaang!!! R-E-S-P-E-C-T to you guys! Keeping those things occupied kept them off the back of other Starfinders for sure. And that's no small feat! Well done friends!"

Raatchet then spots Tyler.

"Well hey there little buddy!!! What are you doing here? You know your presence breaks probably every rule of safety and child endangerment laws in the books. But y'know what? WC!!! No! No! Not 'water closet'!! Who cares!?!?! Y'know what I was up to when I was your age??? Well lemme tell ya!!"

Raatchet scoops Tyler up and starts walking back to the shuttle telling the young child about absolutely irresponsible acts that Raatchet took part in involving electrical shock prank devices, homemade flamethrowers, gumming up schoolbus engines, preventing entry into classrooms by jamming classroom doors shut, and on. And on. And on....

Yep, Raatchet does. Because he could never leave well enough alone, so he got infected with that one...

...the sound of Abysshead!!!

"RATS!!! Not again!!!" exclaims Raatchet, obviously not a fan of Abysshead.

Raatchet returns the high five and says, "That was really fancy BAMFing you had there. Shame it's fading. I honestly never wanna walk again!!"

Turning to the rest of the party Raatchet remarks, "Looks like we gave 'em bloody hell!!! Get it?!? Bloody hell?? Blood oozes...?? Yah? No???"

Thanks for running the game! Chronicle sheet looks good. Was a fun group!!

Not entirely sure I can make the con even though it's online but will certainly try...

For round 6, Raatchet double moves
Raatchet continues flying with his jet pack and lands by the device ready to back up Buff-Bot if needed.

Round 7, Raatchet acts as backup for Buff-Bot.
Raatchet monitors Buff-Bot's progress and attempts to activate the device if Buff-Bot runs into any difficulties.

"Roger! Roger!

Raatchet takes a shot at the red ooze!
Laser Rifle vs EAC, get 'em: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 12 + 2 = 25
Cold & Fire Damage, overcharge: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 8 + (5, 2) = 17

Raatchet then activates his jetpack and flies 30' NE and downwards towards the device, avoiding the need to traverse the difficult incline on foot!

"Comin' to ya, Buff-Bot!!"

There's a compass on the map that's turned sideways. A bit confusing but the device down the ramp is actually NE

Apologies. One correction to my chronicle sheet info. Raatchet's current second seeker Luwazi rep is 5 not 4.

Reputation with Second Seekers (Luwazi Elsebo): 5

"Raatchet, be ready to *BAMF* on my signal."

"Born ready!!!" says Raatchet with a thumbs up and rifle at the ready!

"Raatchet. I think you know what to do. Get it. Та сонгодог алдаа гаргав. Үхлийн тайралтад хэзээ ч оролцож болохгүй!"

I peeked in the Jinsul spoiler and HA! Classic Princess Bride!! Okay, amongst all the various one-liners uttered this scenario, this is one of my favorites!

"Gettin' it!!!" replies Raatchet as he works away at the device.

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (5) + 21 = 26

"Yo Claank! A little help please buddy!!"
Raatchet's lil alien companion pops out once again and starts hitting at buttons that Raatchet hadn't even noticed were there!
Surviving Companion boon reroll.

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (4) + 21 = 25

"Inconceivable!! But you tried your best - thanks lil buddy. Good thing I've got this data cache to assist!"
Using tower intel reroll.

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (9) + 21 = 30

Hopefully that'll do the trick....

Did we miss Jindam's turn? I imagine he would've withdrawn to lure yellow to move next to the device.

I forgot. A readied action won't work to activate the device since it requires a full round to activate and only standard actions can be readied. So there's no point trying to activate until after yellow is adjacent to the device.

"Jindam, if you back up, perhaps yellow will follow... Right to the device!"

Raatchet activates combat tracking on yellow and fires!

Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 12 + 2 = 23
Cold & Fire Damage, overcharge: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 8 + (1, 1) = 15
Get'Em (if any) not applied.

"Heya Buff-Bot! The insectoid just 'stung' you in the 'bee'-hind! HA!"

Seeing the yellow come right at them, Raatchet remarks to Jindam, "Well, you certainly didn't fail!"

Raatchet backs up next to the device and readies an action to activate it the moment yellow is next to it.

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (13) + 21 = 34

Raatchet has already moved. :-D

Raatchet exclaims, "No No!! Clank!!! What are you DOING?!?!?"

Retcon that. The creature's name is Claank!

With the last ooze destroyed, Raatchet celebrates, "Well done everyone! (No offense, Duhm.)"

But upon seeing where purple and yellow dropped, Raatchet exclaims, "Oh no Duhm Kaoh!! You gotta moooooo-ve your rump (steak)! And quick!"

Raatchet double moves, essentially following Jindam and getting clear LOS on the two oozes.

Turning to Jindam, Raatchet asks, "We bamfing over there to save Duhm?"

Raatchet delays until after Jindam as follows....

If Jindam gets to the ooze and BAMFs it to the device next to Raatchet, then Raatchet will do this....

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (1) + 21 = 22

But as Raatchet is just about ready to activate the device, Raatchet's little alien companion scurries out of Raatchet's bag, hops onto the device and messes with the controls! Using Surviving Companion boon to reroll device skill check

Raatchet exclaims, "No No!! Clank!!! What are you DOING?!?!?"

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28
But then some of the lights that were off on the device flicks on and the whole thing seems much better aligned. "oh." is Raatchet's only response...

If Jindam doesn't get the ooze over to the device, then Raatchet will do this instead...

"Bad blood! Stay down!!" yells Raatchet.

Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 12 + 2 = 15
Fire & Cold Damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15

"Get it? Anyone? Bad blood? It's evil? It's a blood ooze? It's trying to kill us? Which is bad. And it's blood. Bad blood? Dhurus and Starfinders have a negative history against each other. Bad blood???"

"Aaaaanywaaaaays..... You guys need help moving it over here?"

If anyone says they do need help transporting the ooze, Raatchet will use his move action to jetpack fly his 30' towards the yellow ooze. But if no one says help is needed to transport the ooze, Raatchet will remain waiting by the device.

If Thri-kreen's shot takes yellow down, then Raatchet will move over to the device and get ready to use it when someone brings the ooze over.

If the shot does not take yellow down, Raatchet will acviate combat tracking on yellow and fire at it!
Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 12 + 2 = 23
Fire & Cold Damage, overcharge: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (3) + 8 + (4, 4) = 19

It's all good. If you can't laugh at yourself, you can't laugh at anyone else.

With a character name like that, it was only a matter of time before Duhm would so something comedic, right?!? :-)

Raatchet watches with jaw open as Duhm steps off the edge of the mesa and promptly allows gravity to do it's thing. "Uhhhh... Well that was kinda dumb... No wait! Duhm? Dumb?!?! Ohhhhhhh..."

A light bulb goes on over Raatchet's head and he quickly turns to Jindam and says, "Hey! Did you get...."

I imagine Jindam would be glowering at Raatchet at this point....

"Right! Less talky. More shooty!"

Raatchet fires again at yellow!
Laser Rifle vs EAC, get'em: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 12 + 2 = 29
Fire & Cold Damage, overcharge, get'em: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 8 + (6, 1) + 2 = 21
Remove 2 from both rolls if get 'em doesn't apply.

Duhm doesn't want to bamf with Raatchet and Jindam? Does Duhm secretly find it disreputable to bamf around with small sized creatures?!? :-p

Yep, Raatchet is willing! Raatchet will delay his turn until after Jindam has bamf'd us!

After Jindam teleports Raatchet, Raatchet yells, "Woooohooo! That's the only way to travel! Walking is for chumps!"

Raatchet turns towards yellow activates combat tracking on it and says, "Alrighty, be a good lil drop of blood and come to papa!!" Raatchet then fires at yellow in the hopes of getting its attention.

Laser Rifle vs EAC, get'em: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 12 + 2 = 32
Fire & Cold Damage, overcharge, get'em: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 + (6, 2) + 2 = 20

GAHHHH!!! That's right! I KNEW I had the wrong sound for Nightcrawler teleportation but I couldn't remember what it was!!

I'm okay with repeating this one or any of the other part 4 scenarios.

Ivok, since this special is repeatable, you can always come back with another one of your level 9-12 characters in the future and get in on that fight with Dhurus!

Once Jindam *POOFS!* himself and Raatchet up to the center mesa, Raatchet immediately gets to work on the device!

"Well this is certainly a new one... Never tried to destroy a drop of nasty ysoki-killing god blood via sabotaging an ancient mystical god-healing device before. If this works, does this somehow also make me...a god?!?"

Semi-ninja'd! Jindam probably read a previous version of my post where I talked about attacking purple from the air. But then I realized we ddin't need to do that...we just need to go straight to the center device and disable it which will kill purple without having to attack purple. So I edited my post but I think Jindam already saw my previous post and responded to that one.

@GM Hmm, if you'll allow it, I propose a modification to Jindam's actions as follows:

As for general plan, as I mention, it might be a good idea for Jindam to get Raatchet up to the central pillar with a dimension door since there is one godsblood up there adjacent and vulnerable to the disabling the anchor.

I'm fine with that. So the plan is for Jindam to dimension door us directly to the center device. And because the Godsblood is already there next to the device, Raatchet can attempt his full action to disable the device and destroy the purple Godsblood without even firing a shot on purple. Genius!

Jindam, what do you think?

Raatchet prepares by declaring, "I was born ready!!!!"

Raatchet has the following:

"Not running away after your devils have gone down? Well, this will jolt you to your senses!!"
Raatchet activates combat tracking on the jinsul and fires!

Pulsecaster Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking, get 'em: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 35
Electric Damage, non-lethal, overcharge: 1d6 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 8 + (1, 2) = 12

bigboom stares at his damage dice rolls and sighs.

"Nice one, Buff-Bot! Your take down was shocking!"

Raatchet double moves to get line of sight on the jinsul!

Could Raatchet have grabbed fresh batteries from the weapons of the downed jinsul mechanics? Or if not, then grab their weapons?

If we can get an aid token, we can use that token's timely inspiration benefit to un-paralyze Ivok. Other than that, I'm not familiar with what else can be done to assist.

"Immune to fire AND resistant to acid?!?!? RATS!!!"
Raatchet moves forward pulling out his pulsecaster rifle and fires at yellow!

Pulsecaster Rifle vs EAC: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28
Electric Damage, non-lethal, overcharge: 1d6 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (6) + 8 + (4, 1) = 19

"And then there was one...." muses Raatchet as he activates combat tracking on the last jinsul and fires!!

Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 2 = 22
Fire Damage, overcharge: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (7) + 8 + (4, 5) = 24
(get'em bonuses not added, if any)

Raatchet will fire on purple unless Thri-kreen's shot wrapped up purple, in which case Raatchet will activate combat tracking and fire on Pink.

Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 12 + 2 = 34
Fire Damage, overcharge, crit: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 + 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 8 + (1, 5) + (3) + 8 + (1, 4) = 32 +1d6 burn
(get'em bonuses not added, if any)

"Sniping the purple jinsul!"

Raatchet will again delay his turn until after Buff-Bot or Jindam's turn, hoping they'll Get 'Em and/or Clever Feint the purple jinsul (not the purple walker).

Raatchet activates combat tracking on the purple jinsul and takes a shot!! (get'em bonuses not added)

Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 12 + 2 = 33
Fire Damage, overcharge: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (6) + 8 + (3, 4) = 21

Reflex: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16

Dodging away from the walker's stomp, Raatchet yells, "URGGGHHAA!!! Every rat's nightmare....to get stomped on!! Well, maybe worse for you, Thri-kreen!!"

Raatchet backs away from the walker and fires again at green!!

Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking, get 'em: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 35
Fire Damage, overcharge, get 'em: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 + (6, 4) + 2 = 21

Going through the walker specs in his head, Raatchet says, "RATZ!!! Those walkers are hardened. I'm going to try and snipe the green-looking jinsul inside!! Ivok, get the green one! I'll cover you best I can!!"

Raatchet will delay his turn until after Buff-Bot or Jindam's turn. Totally up to you both what you do on your turn, but I'm hoping that between the two of you, a Get 'Em and/or Clever Feint debuff can be put on the green jinsul. After the two of them have executed their turns...

Raatchet activates combat tracking on the green jinsul and takes a shot!!

Laser Rifle vs EAC, combat tracking: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 12 + 2 = 30
Fire Damage, overcharge: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 8 + (5, 2) = 20

Thanks for the bot Ivok! We did really well in all our starship combat encounters! Raatchet didn't have to pull his miracle worker ability out!

Restoring Raatchet's RP to full because I think both times he used RP it was the free starship combat RP.

And cool, we're going up against imperial AT-ST Walkers! Hey wait a sec...does that make us ewoks???

Any advice on what the team would like Raatchet to do? Raatchet typically takes on engineering but with Ivok taking that over, I'm open to suggestions.

Ivok, you haven't specified which quadrant you're restoring. I suggest either port or aft so that Raatchet's rebalance will be maximized.

Drake Status (assuming Ivok maximizes port)
90/100 HP
Shields 160 (F/P/S/A/) 12/52/36/40
Power Core: 250 PCU

---------------------------

Seeing that Ivok has taken the engineering position, Raatchet switches over to Science and rebalances the shields, maximizing the quadrant facing the enemy ship and minimizing another quandrant that has the most shield points!

Computers DC22: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 19 + 2 = 27

I cannot yet say which quadrant is being reduced and which is being reinforced since the ships have not yet finished moving. In case the jinsul ship performs a flyby, Raatchet will do an even distribution instead of buffing up a single quadrant.

---------------------------

Drake Status (after balance if target ship is facing our port)

Oh I had completely missed that we started up round 1 of the next combat already!

"Sure thing! Target lock comin up!"

Computers: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 19 + 2 = 31

Fort: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

"Ahhh... the sweet smell of fresh... No wait, we're in space! There's no fresh anything! What IS that stench?? A WHAT?!? A PLAGUE?!?!?"

I'm good with Buff-Bot's proposal

Drake status
100/100 HP
Shields 160 (F/P/S/A/) 40/40/36/40
Power Core: 250 PCU

"Shields are looking not too shabby! Power to weapons!! Or maybe engines...?"
Engineering, DC22: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (5) + 21 = 26

I forget. Didn't we have the Finest Weapons boon? If not, then Raatchet will divert power to weapons this round. If we do have Finest Weapons already, then Raatchet will divert power to engines.

Drake status
100/100 HP
Shields 160 (F/P/S/A/) 40/40/24/40
Power Core: 250 PCU

Raatchet diverts energy back to shields to restore the depleted starboard shields!
Engineering, DC22: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (3) + 21 = 24

Drake status, updated
100/100 HP
Shields 160 (F/P/S/A/) 40/40/36/40
Power Core: 250 PCU

For the first round, Raatchet will perform a scan on the science station then move to engineering next round.

Computers to Scan: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 19 + 2 = 22

"Hmmmmm.... These sensors seem a bit faulty. I think I'm gunna head back down to engineering...."

Raatchet shares what little information he was able to gather with the party.

Help Fitch

Raatchet moves quickly into the power core and fires on green!

Disintegrator Rifle vs EAC: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
Acid Damage: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
Acid Damage, crit: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Raatchet yells, "Howzabaout a lil AC to cool ya down?!?"

Raatchet fires the freeze spray!

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (10) + 21 = 31
Damage: 9d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 1, 4, 6, 4, 3, 3, 2) = 31

Raatchet yells, "Ice! Ice! Baby!"

Raatchet fires the freeze spray!

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (3) + 21 = 24
Damage: 9d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 5, 6, 3) = 31

Raatchet yells in response, "On it! Just stay frosty!"

Raatchet fires the freeze spray!

Engineering: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (12) + 21 = 33
Damage: 9d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 3, 3, 3, 3, 6, 4, 2) = 27
