You're all Silver Dragons
[2024/03/07 15:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... I'm reluctant to chance fate, but, I dare the damnedest things, so....
[2024/03/07 15:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: first off: our main D&D: not QUITE ready. Yes I know it's been a while but I just got a fantastic idea for a rather large.... eh, you'll see
[2024/03/07 15:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: I'd have done that yesterday but the world went to shit... again.
[2024/03/07 15:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: still, I got one one shot left over from New Year :)
[2024/03/07 15:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: Who likes one shots? :)
[2024/03/07 15:41] QKR Mecha: I am open to it :)
[2024/03/07 15:41] QKR Sapphire: yay, One Shots
[2024/03/07 15:41] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): :)
[2024/03/07 15:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... very important premise first
[2024/03/07 15:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Each of their characters would start off with a special background/quirk that they cannot share with the others. These quirks could be anything from having a military background, an incredibly wealthy family, being a secret harper agent, etc. They are not to share the quirk with anyone, not even OOC." ie., the second you let slip your "quirk", that's when .... well, you don't want to do that. Not even between yourselves here!
[2024/03/07 15:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: let me consult my list of tables, and tables of lists... who wants to be what type of character?
[2024/03/07 15:44] QKR Mecha: >:)
[2024/03/07 15:44] QKR Sapphire: what are the options? we going sci fi, fantasy, or historical?
[2024/03/07 15:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: It's D&D as always :)
[2024/03/07 15:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: so, fighter/cleric/mage/thief
[2024/03/07 15:45] QKR Mecha: This one will go Cleric
[2024/03/07 15:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, roll the d20...
[2024/03/07 15:45] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 10
[2024/03/07 15:45] QKR Sapphire: let's go Mage this time around
[2024/03/07 15:46] Second Life: Items successfully shared.
[2024/03/07 15:46] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): thief
[2024/03/07 15:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire... d20

[2024/03/07 15:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire, d20
[2024/03/07 15:48] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 9
[2024/03/07 15:49] Second Life: Items successfully shared.
[2024/03/07 15:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: have a read... but any questions, in IM to me
[2024/03/07 15:49] Second Life: Items successfully shared.
[2024/03/07 15:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: once you're ready to begin... we'll... er... begin!
[2024/03/07 15:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: The last thing you all remember is the wizard Lakmir chanting and waving his hands as he cast his spell. "Fare thee well! Remember you need to find allies to help you in the quest! May the gods favour you."
[2024/03/07 15:51] QKR Sapphire: Might I ask what the -second- to last thing we remember is?
[2024/03/07 15:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: Yes, you were told you'll be sent via a teleport.
[2024/03/07 15:53] QKR Mecha: Do we wake up after the teleport or did we stay Conscious?
[2024/03/07 15:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: And before that... eh... you can't recall a thing.
[2024/03/07 15:53] QKR Sapphire: Sapphire keeps an eye out for the landing position of the teleport, making sure their sword stays in it's sheath
[2024/03/07 15:54] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me after waking takes not e of everything she can see upon opening eyes and checks for any injuries before interacting
[2024/03/07 15:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: You all appear in a village at the foot of Mountflame Mountain. A huge red dragon attacks, just at that moment in time. There's a loud ROAR as it swoops over head, and the blast-furnace heat of it's breath as it breathes fire. Villagers are running in all directions
[2024/03/07 15:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: The dragon herds the villagers into the square you're in. "HURR HURR HURR! This is MY village now, humans! And if you want to keep on living, I demand TRIBUTE! That's ten thousand gold pieces unless you want to BURN!" And it smashes down a building with a wing, just to make the point.
[2024/03/07 15:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: Any plans on what to do/say?
[2024/03/07 15:57] QKR Sapphire: /me frowns. "I think our timing is a bit off." She looks around for the nearest castle or other large fortification. "He wasn't supposed to be here so fast."
[2024/03/07 15:58] QKR Mecha: I am backing slowly away.
[2024/03/07 15:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, Dina? :)
[2024/03/07 15:58] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me doesnt say a thing yet , listens and observes the dragon taking a moment before speaking to those she appeared near, "Hello, yes this does seem to be a huge winged problem"
[2024/03/07 15:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: The dragon poses theatrically. Its' loving the attention! "I hear there's FOOLS here looking for a hero or ally or something to fight me... I suggest you come clean about who they are, so I can eat 'em! What? No one wants to 'fess up...? Well... I better not catch them here or you ALL die! Until tomorrow, puny humans... don't forget, ten thousand gold, not one coin less!" And with that it ROARS and flames a nearby building before flying away.
[2024/03/07 15:59] QKR Sapphire: /me rubs their forehead. "Well. He sure knows how to make enemies."
[2024/03/07 16:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: That's red dragons for you.
[2024/03/07 16:00] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me "That was an unfriendly Dragon, but at least he left"
[2024/03/07 16:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: heh! Mecha?
[2024/03/07 16:02] QKR Mecha: Yeah, but he will be back tomorrow.
[2024/03/07 16:02] QKR Mecha: *What are the townsfolk doing? Figure a lot of them are going to run.*
[2024/03/07 16:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: The villagers notice you, as you are outsiders. They form a circle around you, begging and pleading for you to help. They are sure you are at least messengers sent by the wizard Lakmir, and that an ally to help in the fight might be found up the mountain
[2024/03/07 16:05] QKR Sapphire: "We're here to help, yes. Alone we might not be enough, but together we can! Who is your strongest champion? We must plan the battle for tomorrow with them."
[2024/03/07 16:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: "We don't have a champion, we are but poor and humble farmers!"
[2024/03/07 16:07] QKR Mecha: You mentioned something about up the mountain?
[2024/03/07 16:07] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me "Very happy to help in fact"
[2024/03/07 16:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: "We are sure if you go up the mountain, you'll find the allies you need"
[2024/03/07 16:09] QKR Sapphire: "Is one of you willing to guide us up the mountain?"
[2024/03/07 16:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a lot of muttering and shuffling about. There's a lot of injured villagers and burning buildings and damaged fields; they can't spare anyone to go on any dangerous missions
[2024/03/07 16:11] QKR Mecha: okay just point in the right direction and you all take care of you and yours
[2024/03/07 16:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: They all point up the large road, that goes over a bridge and through a field and into a forest and up the mountain. Thataway.
[2024/03/07 16:12] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me "thank you for the directions, very kind of you all"
[2024/03/07 16:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: so, off up the road?
[2024/03/07 16:13] QKR Sapphire: Will ask some more questions about what we should expect to find, but yeah
[2024/03/07 16:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: ask away!
[2024/03/07 16:15] QKR Sapphire: "Who are we going to see up there, and what hazards should we be aware of?"
[2024/03/07 16:16] Sonja Bikergrrl: "We don't know... and we don't know! It used to be peaceful here, now there's a dragon and who knows what evil they brought along too!"
[2024/03/07 16:19] QKR Sapphire: ....they don't know their own mountain.... ?
[2024/03/07 16:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: They know it was peaceful - until a drago flew in
[2024/03/07 16:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me tosses up the missing "n"
[2024/03/07 16:21] QKR Sapphire: hmmmm
[2024/03/07 16:21] QKR Mecha: *Sighs* the sooner we go the sooner we can find this ally or allies and help these people.
[2024/03/07 16:22] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): very ready to go
[2024/03/07 16:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... so... off we go?
[2024/03/07 16:23] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me almost looks excited to see where this leads
[2024/03/07 16:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: The road leads over a bridge and through a field, and that's where...
[2024/03/07 16:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: Six goblins are lurking in the field, as you approach, they jump up, waving their axes and generally threatening you!
[2024/03/07 16:26] QKR Sapphire: /me readies their bow, drawing and nocking an arrow. "You really don't want to do this tonight, bandits."
[2024/03/07 16:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Hurr hurr, what we got here boys! Humans, to plunder and later, to eat!"
[2024/03/07 16:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha, Dina?
[2024/03/07 16:27] QKR Mecha: Today is not the day boys. there is a dragon around and it might be expanding its territory
[2024/03/07 16:27] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me gets her bow ready and aims at the goblins
[2024/03/07 16:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Hurr hurr, yeah! That's the Boss! Now, you die!" And they charge forwards, swinging their axes about wildly. Looks like you're in trouble.
[2024/03/07 16:30] QKR Mecha: I sigh and draw the flail swinging at the closest one
[2024/03/07 16:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... d20
[2024/03/07 16:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: must roll over 14
[2024/03/07 16:31] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): lets an arrow fly towards the closest one
[2024/03/07 16:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20 from Dina, must roll over 14
[2024/03/07 16:31] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 11
[2024/03/07 16:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: Miss :P
[2024/03/07 16:31] QKR Sapphire: /me looses their arrow
[2024/03/07 16:31] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 19
[2024/03/07 16:32] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 10
[2024/03/07 16:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: d6 from Mecha
[2024/03/07 16:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire shoots the air
[2024/03/07 16:33] D6: Alicia Frakture rolls 1
[2024/03/07 16:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh dear. It was all going so well.
[2024/03/07 16:34] QKR Sapphire: /me hisses in annoyance at their miss.
[2024/03/07 16:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha smacks a goblin, and badly injures it; it still is in the fray, however. Their turn now!
[2024/03/07 16:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Goblins attack Mecha, Sapphire, Dina
[2024/03/07 16:35] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 12
[2024/03/07 16:35] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 19

[2024/03/07 16:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Eeeh. Not so good for Sapphire...
[2024/03/07 16:35] D6: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 2
[2024/03/07 16:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire is wounded!
[2024/03/07 16:36] QKR Sapphire: how much?
[2024/03/07 16:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: Down to half your health, and the second rank of goblins go next
[2024/03/07 16:36] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 12
[2024/03/07 16:36] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 15
[2024/03/07 16:36] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 4
[2024/03/07 16:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... what did Sapphire do to annoy the dice gods?
[2024/03/07 16:36] D6: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2024/03/07 16:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: At least that didn't hurt... very much!
[2024/03/07 16:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: What now? Sapphire is wounded, and you still got six goblins in melee
[2024/03/07 16:38] QKR Mecha: I'm going to Motion for Sapphire to get behind me as I take a swing at the same goblin
[2024/03/07 16:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, roll over 14
[2024/03/07 16:38] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 9
[2024/03/07 16:38] QKR Sapphire: back up behind Mecha, pull Shortsword, and slash the ugliest goblin, presuming they are the leader.
[2024/03/07 16:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: ok.. d20
[2024/03/07 16:39] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 16
[2024/03/07 16:39] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): steps back putting distance between the nearest goblin and then launches another arrow
[2024/03/07 16:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: short sword... d6
[2024/03/07 16:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me allows this from Dina - d20
[2024/03/07 16:40] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 14

[2024/03/07 16:41] D6: Kitten Venus rolls 1
[2024/03/07 16:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: You stick an arrow in a goblin; it screams in pain but is still in the fight
[2024/03/07 16:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: (D6 from Sapphire)
[2024/03/07 16:41] D6: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 3
[2024/03/07 16:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire stabs at a goblin and runs him through, down he falls, dead! There's blood everywhere!
[2024/03/07 16:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: Their turn, goblins attack Dina, Mecha
[2024/03/07 16:42] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 15

[2024/03/07 16:43] D6: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 5
[2024/03/07 16:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: Not looking good for Dina - now at deaths door, with a near fatal wound!
[2024/03/07 16:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: and goblins attack Mecha, Sapphire, Dina
[2024/03/07 16:44] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 12

[2024/03/07 16:44] D6: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2024/03/07 16:44] QKR Sapphire: "Get off of us you scum of the soil!" She spits at them and swings her sword at the shoulders of the next goblin in line, for all that they're bleeding heavily.
[2024/03/07 16:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: It may be only a scratch, but with the previous wounds... Sapphire is likewise near fatally injured!
[2024/03/07 16:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: (Dina and Sapphire are at 1hp - both of you).
[2024/03/07 16:45] QKR Mecha: *Wait, Sapphire was standing behind me for safety.*
[2024/03/07 16:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire attacked a goblin, they get to attack back
[2024/03/07 16:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's also six of them...
[2024/03/07 16:46] QKR Sapphire: We don't have a particular choke point, do we?
[2024/03/07 16:46] QKR Sapphire: Five now, no?
[2024/03/07 16:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sadly no!
[2024/03/07 16:46] QKR Mecha: I reach back and cast cure light wounds on sapphire since she is closest
[2024/03/07 16:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Five, yes. One downed.
[2024/03/07 16:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll the d8
[2024/03/07 16:47] D8: Alicia Frakture rolls 3
[2024/03/07 16:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire is now only slightly wounded, but still... not the best situation to be in
[2024/03/07 16:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: What now?
[2024/03/07 16:49] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): if not incapacitated will pull back
[2024/03/07 16:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, Mecha, Sapphire?
[2024/03/07 16:50] QKR Mecha: Will provided cover for the others swinging at another goblin
[2024/03/07 16:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: ok, d20... and Sapphire?
[2024/03/07 16:50] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 6
[2024/03/07 16:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: d'oh!
[2024/03/07 16:51] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 14
[2024/03/07 16:51] QKR Sapphire: is 14 enough?
[2024/03/07 16:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: exact number!
[2024/03/07 16:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: d6
[2024/03/07 16:53] D6: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 5
[2024/03/07 16:53] QKR Sapphire: wooo
[2024/03/07 16:53] QKR Sapphire: "You know you're not going to win this. Run Away while you still can," She growls and gets ready to slay yet more goblins.
[2024/03/07 16:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: Another goblin down! Now there's four swarming Mecha
[2024/03/07 16:53] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 13

[2024/03/07 16:54] D6: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 3
[2024/03/07 16:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: The goblins are unimpressed by your bravado, and fight on!
[2024/03/07 16:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now what?
[2024/03/07 16:54] QKR Mecha: Gonna take a swing. hopefully easier since they swarmed
[2024/03/07 16:54] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 16
[2024/03/07 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: d6
[2024/03/07 16:55] D6: Alicia Frakture rolls 5
[2024/03/07 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: you smack a goblin very hard, sending it crashing to the ground
[2024/03/07 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire, Dina?
[2024/03/07 16:55] QKR Sapphire: so they're swarming Mecha, right? Means I can move around and get behind one of them?
[2024/03/07 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: yep
[2024/03/07 16:56] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): tries to take aim at one while they are swarming , keeping far back
[2024/03/07 16:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20 Dina
[2024/03/07 16:56] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 4

[2024/03/07 16:57] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): and the arrow sails away
[2024/03/07 16:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: sadly so...
[2024/03/07 16:57] QKR Sapphire: Can I move and attack in the same turn that way?
[2024/03/07 16:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: What have you in mind?
[2024/03/07 16:59] QKR Sapphire: Looping around quickly and going for a backstab?
[2024/03/07 17:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: Oooh! A backstab! Go for hit. +4 bonus means roll over a 10 to succeed!
[2024/03/07 17:00] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 11
[2024/03/07 17:00] QKR Sapphire: mwaha
[2024/03/07 17:00] D6: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 5
[2024/03/07 17:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: You literally stab the poor goblin in half. Blood sprays -everywhere-
[2024/03/07 17:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: The remaining goblins have had enough, they run for it, screaming
[2024/03/07 17:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: nicely done... but you're now in various stages of health
[2024/03/07 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now what?
[2024/03/07 17:04] QKR Mecha: I can only cure wounds once a day.. I mean I can try to pray for a miracle but...
[2024/03/07 17:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: Yep, you are out of magic...
[2024/03/07 17:05] QKR Sapphire: "Ugh." She kicks at one of the goblins in frustration. "The blood will probably attract wolves too. Let's get going as fast as we can."
[2024/03/07 17:05] QKR Sapphire: Who got healed for how much?
[2024/03/07 17:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, maybe leave it there.... there's a bit more but let's do it justice :)
[2024/03/07 17:05] QKR Mecha: Wait search the bodies, they may have a health potion or something
[2024/03/07 17:05] QKR Mecha: Sapphire healed for 3
[2024/03/07 17:06] QKR Sapphire: so now one damage down
[2024/03/07 17:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: we all here tomorrow?
[2024/03/07 17:06] QKR Sapphire: that's not too bad
[2024/03/07 17:06] QKR Sapphire: um
[2024/03/07 17:06] QKR Sapphire: I am likely not
[2024/03/07 17:06] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): yes :)
[2024/03/07 17:06] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): :(
[2024/03/07 17:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... then, we continue when we can :)
[2024/03/07 17:08] QKR Sapphire: Nice to ease back into this
[2024/03/11 16:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: 'kay, who remembers what happened last
[2024/03/11 16:21] QKR Mecha: The one shot
[2024/03/11 16:21] QKR Sapphire: ye
[2024/03/11 16:22] QKR Sapphire: with the....
[2024/03/11 16:22] QKR Sapphire: /me shifty eyes
[2024/03/11 16:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: the near TPK
[2024/03/11 16:22] QKR Sapphire: the one shot characters
[2024/03/11 16:22] QKR Mecha: WE had just survived a fight with six goblins and are trying to figure out what to do next
[2024/03/11 16:22] QKR Sapphire: ended up a bit lower on health than ideal
[2024/03/11 16:23] QKR Mecha: So my character was searching goblin bodies for possible health potions
[2024/03/11 16:24] QKR Sapphire: I respect the optimism
[2024/03/11 16:24] QKR Mecha: More desperation than optimism
[2024/03/11 16:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: A search of the bodies yields two dead rats, a handful of verdigreased copper coins of various types, a handful of filthy rags, a rusty dagger, and a teddy bear missing an eye and an arm. It looks incredibly filthy.
[2024/03/11 16:26] QKR Sapphire: awwww
[2024/03/11 16:26] QKR Mecha: "No health potions."
[2024/03/11 16:27] QKR Sapphire: "Was a long shot," she answers, eyeing the coins for a bit before shaking her head. "Nothing worth keeping."
[2024/03/11 16:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: we got an injured Sapphire, a near dead Dina, and an unharmed Mecha
[2024/03/11 16:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: The path leads on up the mountain and into the forest further up... so... what now?
[2024/03/11 16:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: And with that said... GGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRREEEEETINGS Adventurers, other players get well thought out balanced games, you get a TPK now, or a TPK later.
[2024/03/11 16:29] QKR Sapphire: My injuries are like 1 point after healing.... so Dina gets priority for that.
[2024/03/11 16:29] QKR Mecha: I look at the others."What do you two want to do?"
[2024/03/11 16:30] QKR Sapphire: Well, if the TPK later gets to at least be a Mutually Assured Destruction, I can live with that.
[2024/03/11 16:30] QKR Sapphire: well, not "live" perhaps
[2024/03/11 16:30] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): continue onward injured or not
[2024/03/11 16:31] QKR Sapphire: Right, we're on a short enough clock that resting is not actually an option, but proper scouting -is-, so Sapphire the Rogue will get right to that, checking ahead first. Staying in sight where possible.
[2024/03/11 16:31] QKR Mecha: All right. We will have to keep an eye out for possible healing for you though, and if we get into a fight. it might be safe to hide behind us.
[2024/03/11 16:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, how you going to scout?
[2024/03/11 16:32] QKR Mecha: I will take the lead since I am unharmed
[2024/03/11 16:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha is not a rogue.
[2024/03/11 16:33] QKR Mecha: *Sorry, misread that*
[2024/03/11 16:33] QKR Sapphire: I mean, moving ahead carefully and inspecting the terrain for possibly hazards and hostiles?
[2024/03/11 16:33] QKR Sapphire: signalling back via hand signals for the rest of the team to proceed if/when it looks clear
[2024/03/11 16:33] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): follows doing her best to not draw any attention
[2024/03/11 16:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: so... you're going out in the open, not making any attempt to hide?
[2024/03/11 16:35] QKR Mecha: Moving as stealthy as possible but keeping close to Dina
[2024/03/11 16:35] QKR Sapphire: Oh, yeah, being stealthy as possible as well
[2024/03/11 16:36] QKR Sapphire: terrain here is mountinous forest, right?
[2024/03/11 16:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... this is not clear
[2024/03/11 16:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: Either you are going ahead using rogue hiding ability, or, you aren't.
[2024/03/11 16:36] QKR Sapphire: using rogue hiding ability
[2024/03/11 16:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: right... d%, must roll under 15 to hide.
[2024/03/11 16:37] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): yes doing best to hide and stay unnoticed
[2024/03/11 16:37] QKR Sapphire: I kinda just include that in the principle of "scouting"
[2024/03/11 16:37] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 16
[2024/03/11 16:37] QKR Sapphire: 15, no other modifiers?
[2024/03/11 16:37] D10: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 8
[2024/03/11 16:37] D10: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 9
[2024/03/11 16:37] QKR Sapphire: welp
[2024/03/11 16:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: indeed, but then everyone followed, and they're not rogues
[2024/03/11 16:37] QKR Sapphire: the -plan- was to have the rest of the squad stay back a bit
[2024/03/11 16:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: em... I could give you a +50 modifier....
[2024/03/11 16:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: but, even then... there are zombies amongst the trees... and they seem to have noticed you... they lumber towards you
[2024/03/11 16:38] QKR Mecha: I thought we were staying back a bit
[2024/03/11 16:39] QKR Sapphire: Sapphire signals 'stop' and 'enemies', then backs up, getting her bow out. "Zombies. I didn't get an exact count."
[2024/03/11 16:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: Less than five, you'll be pleased to know.
[2024/03/11 16:40] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): quickly puts alot of distance between her and the zombies, finding a shaded place to try to hide while readying her bow
[2024/03/11 16:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: They come lurching out, unsteadily, slowly...
[2024/03/11 16:41] QKR Sapphire: Arrow, nocked, aimed, loosed.
[2024/03/11 16:42] QKR Mecha: I draw my flail and prepare."Not to be THAT Cleric but they shamble, we can just run away. For some reason I am unable to cast turn undead yet."
[2024/03/11 16:42] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 17
[2024/03/11 16:42] QKR Mecha: ... Never mind
[2024/03/11 16:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, must roll over 12
[2024/03/11 16:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: hit, roll d6
[2024/03/11 16:42] QKR Sapphire: "True, but if we run we have to find a new path while they shamble up behind us."
[2024/03/11 16:42] D6: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 2
[2024/03/11 16:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: -thunk- you hit one for some damage. It lumbers on.
[2024/03/11 16:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha.... you want to turn undead?
[2024/03/11 16:44] QKR Mecha: /me nods
[2024/03/11 16:44] QKR Mecha: I use turn undead
[2024/03/11 16:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2024/03/11 16:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: must roll over 13
[2024/03/11 16:45] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 5
[2024/03/11 16:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: You step forwards, you say "Begone, foul fiends" with your hands raised dramatically... they keep lumbering forwards
[2024/03/11 16:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nice try, though!
[2024/03/11 16:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dina?
[2024/03/11 16:46] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): still hiding, not firing at this point so the zombies dont take notice
[2024/03/11 16:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... they lumber out and get closer... you face four near full-health zombies. What do you plan doing now?
[2024/03/11 16:49] QKR Sapphire: "Fighting retreat," Sapphire calls out. "They're slow and not smart enough to change tactics."
[2024/03/11 16:49] QKR Mecha: I'm gonna realize I didn't use my holy symbol in that turn undead attempt and it turned out to be dramatic, so can I try again?
[2024/03/11 16:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: sadly no!
[2024/03/11 16:49] QKR Sapphire: That is, move back about 20 to 30 feet and then loose another arrow, maintaining distance from the zeds
[2024/03/11 16:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: they're also not -that- slow...
[2024/03/11 16:50] QKR Mecha: Then I agree with fighting retreat as I swing my flail at one. "I said begone!"
[2024/03/11 16:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: you're not really going to be able to retreat, fire, retreat, and maintain distance - and if you try, you run a big risk of being sandwiched by another threat
[2024/03/11 16:51] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 12
[2024/03/11 16:51] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): keeping lots of distance from the shambling slow zombies while staying close enough to companions to both hear whats said and follow. Assuming the zombies dont have ranged weapons will take a shot at one while at distance to where their fists and close range weapons couldnt even come close
[2024/03/11 16:52] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 2
[2024/03/11 16:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... reminder... they -will- close on you if you do that.
[2024/03/11 16:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha: d20
[2024/03/11 16:52] QKR Sapphire: how fast are they they closing per turn?
[2024/03/11 16:52] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): ok nevermind on that attempt then, didnt know they could move that fast
[2024/03/11 16:52] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 20
[2024/03/11 16:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: blimey... roll d6
[2024/03/11 16:53] D6: Alicia Frakture rolls 1
[2024/03/11 16:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: ...it was all going so well...
[2024/03/11 16:53] QKR Mecha: /me bonks her head on the table
[2024/03/11 16:53] QKR Sapphire: even on a crit?
[2024/03/11 16:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: A cracking great hit... but... doesn't do much damage.
[2024/03/11 16:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire, Dina, what are you doing?
[2024/03/11 16:54] QKR Sapphire: Do I know of any rivers or cliffs along this mountain?
[2024/03/11 16:54] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): hiding
[2024/03/11 16:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: You know the village is some distance back down the path
[2024/03/11 16:55] QKR Sapphire: does the village have a river by it?
[2024/03/11 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: it's got a little stream...
[2024/03/11 16:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, Dina tries to hide... Sapphire?
[2024/03/11 16:56] QKR Sapphire: "There's a stream along this mountain, we can probably handle the crossing better than the zombies can." She'll try to move clear of the zombies, assuming the rest of the party can actually stay grouped up
[2024/03/11 16:56] QKR Mecha: You two head back to town I will cover your escape
[2024/03/11 16:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: the stream is quite some distance away.... not sure how it'll impede the zombies...
[2024/03/11 16:58] QKR Sapphire: "I'm not leaving you behind to face four of these on your own." She curses, firing another arrow since apparently the group isn't able or willing to simply fall back and evade these zombies.
[2024/03/11 16:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: meanwhile... the zombies swarm around Mecha.... Sapphire, d20
[2024/03/11 16:58] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 4
[2024/03/11 16:58] QKR Sapphire: >.>
[2024/03/11 16:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, that hurt the air.
[2024/03/11 16:58] QKR Sapphire: I'm sure it deserved it
[2024/03/11 16:58] QKR Mecha: I'm not. I'll be behind you hopefully slowing them down. Trust me self sacrifice is not my thing
[2024/03/11 16:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh boy. I'm sweating at having to roll the die
[2024/03/11 16:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: they need 15+...
[2024/03/11 16:59] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 10
[2024/03/11 16:59] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2024/03/11 16:59] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 13
[2024/03/11 16:59] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 8
[2024/03/11 16:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: They swarm about Mecha, flailing and punching... all missing
[2024/03/11 17:00] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): shoots at one knowing it will probably miss but has to try
[2024/03/11 17:00] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 12
[2024/03/11 17:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: Going to be honest, your situation isn't exactly ideal :P
[2024/03/11 17:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, Dina shoots one... d6 for the hit
[2024/03/11 17:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: meanwhile, Sapphire, Mecha?
[2024/03/11 17:02] D6: Kitten Venus rolls 2
[2024/03/11 17:02] QKR Sapphire: Well, if Mecha is stalling them, Sapphire will back up a bit, like 40 feet or so, and get onne more plink at the zombies. "Alright, running after this, I suggest you do the same Mecha! Don't get yourself killed out here!"
[2024/03/11 17:02] QKR Mecha: Gonna take another swing at the same one
[2024/03/11 17:02] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 18
[2024/03/11 17:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dina sticks an arrow in a zombie... battered and stuck full of arrows it is, it keeps attacking...
[2024/03/11 17:02] D6: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 5
[2024/03/11 17:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... looks like Sapphire finally killed a zombie
[2024/03/11 17:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: Can you even kill a zombie?
[2024/03/11 17:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, Mecha
[2024/03/11 17:03] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 2
[2024/03/11 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Miss... lucky it wasn't a crit...
[2024/03/11 17:04] QKR Mecha: Agreed
[2024/03/11 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, their go! Three attack Mecha.
[2024/03/11 17:04] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 9
[2024/03/11 17:04] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 7
[2024/03/11 17:04] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 10
[2024/03/11 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Punches and flails, misses and fails.
[2024/03/11 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now what?
[2024/03/11 17:05] QKR Mecha: Gonna swing again before stepping back to follow the others while trying to slow down the zombies more
[2024/03/11 17:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, Sapphire, Dina?
[2024/03/11 17:06] QKR Sapphire: Well, Mecha ordered us back down to the village, I'm gonna... trust her and work on making good the escape, assisting Dina if she needs it.
[2024/03/11 17:06] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): follows Mecha quickly
[2024/03/11 17:06] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 16
[2024/03/11 17:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh-kay... d20 Mecha, hope you got a plan...
[2024/03/11 17:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: and d6
[2024/03/11 17:07] D6: Alicia Frakture rolls 1
[2024/03/11 17:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me takes a moment to breathe
[2024/03/11 17:07] QKR Mecha: /me glares at the D6 reaching for her wrench
[2024/03/11 17:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... you barely damage the zombie... but you hit it....
[2024/03/11 17:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: now they go
[2024/03/11 17:07] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 8
[2024/03/11 17:07] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 4
[2024/03/11 17:07] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2024/03/11 17:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: Oooh.
[2024/03/11 17:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: All miss
[2024/03/11 17:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: but you know your luck will run out sooner or later.
[2024/03/11 17:08] QKR Mecha: I keep backing away while taking another swing
[2024/03/11 17:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: 'k, now what :)
[2024/03/11 17:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2024/03/11 17:08] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 20
[2024/03/11 17:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: and... d6... if you dare
[2024/03/11 17:08] QKR Mecha: I am almost afraid to roll the D6
[2024/03/11 17:08] D6: Alicia Frakture rolls 1
[2024/03/11 17:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: you are kidding
[2024/03/11 17:09] QKR Sapphire: I'm gonna check this die for glitches
[2024/03/11 17:09] D6: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 3
[2024/03/11 17:09] D6: Alicia Frakture rolls 5
[2024/03/11 17:09] QKR Sapphire: ....hmmm
[2024/03/11 17:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: the die is fair, I checked it a while back!
[2024/03/11 17:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: The zombie is now badly damaged.
[2024/03/11 17:10] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire, Dina?
[2024/03/11 17:11] QKR Sapphire: I'm gonna check the direction we're retreating to make sure it's clear.
[2024/03/11 17:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: You're heading to the village? Seems clear.
[2024/03/11 17:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dina?
[2024/03/11 17:12] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): keeps following carefully
[2024/03/11 17:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: ok, zombies go...
[2024/03/11 17:12] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 7
[2024/03/11 17:12] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 5
[2024/03/11 17:12] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 20
[2024/03/11 17:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, had to happen sooner or later
[2024/03/11 17:13] D8: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 8
[2024/03/11 17:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: ...seriously, who'd you annoy...?
[2024/03/11 17:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: That's Mecha on the point of death on one punch. I suggest you don't get hit again!
[2024/03/11 17:14] QKR Sapphire: seems we've been playing with fire on that
[2024/03/11 17:14] QKR Sapphire: Mecha, you gonna retreat properly now?
[2024/03/11 17:15] QKR Mecha: Yeah I'm out
[2024/03/11 17:15] QKR Sapphire: Retreating properly now!
[2024/03/11 17:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: so... what now? Book it back to the village...? And then...?
[2024/03/11 17:17] QKR Mecha: Report the zombies so villagers can help, then find a church for healing
[2024/03/11 17:17] QKR Sapphire: And next time we venture out, *avoid* unneeded fights
[2024/03/11 17:18] QKR Sapphire: but yeah, announcing our situation, and the incoming shufflers if the zombies are somehow keeping up
[2024/03/11 17:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: Hmmm... well, you run back to the village with the zombies shambling after.... the villagers who are out see this and duck back into their homes and bolt and bar the doors and bang shutters closed. The streets are empty in mere seconds.
[2024/03/11 17:19] QKR Sapphire: oh right, no walls
[2024/03/11 17:19] QKR Mecha: There is no town guard or something?
[2024/03/11 17:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: As for the church.... well, there's a small shrine.
[2024/03/11 17:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: It's a small village, so, no, not big enough
[2024/03/11 17:19] QKR Sapphire: ....i feel like we could have been aware of that when we made this plan
[2024/03/11 17:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: and... it's starting to get late. Not just game time, but, realy time.
[2024/03/11 17:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me -did- question what you hoped to achieve by retreating, and pointed out to probably not do that
[2024/03/11 17:21] QKR Mecha: how long until the zombies?
[2024/03/11 17:21] QKR Mecha: arrive
[2024/03/11 17:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: But! That is where we leave it for tonight... I do got to work tomorrow
[2024/03/11 17:21] QKR Sapphire: -I- wanted to retreat sideways but you said the stream was unable to impede zombies
[2024/03/11 17:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: the zombies are mere minutes behind, so... a few minutes before the TPK
[2024/03/11 17:22] QKR Sapphire: entire minutes?
[2024/03/11 17:22] QKR Sapphire: that probably lets us eject button out
[2024/03/11 17:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: anyways! Tomorrow, maybe, we see how it goes!
[2024/03/11 17:22] QKR Mecha: pray at the shrine and hope for a miracle
[2024/03/11 17:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: that could work
[2024/03/18 16:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: right, we all here, more or less?
[2024/03/18 16:40] QKR Mecha: /me nods
[2024/03/18 16:40] QKR Sapphire: whirrr!
[2024/03/18 16:40] /me Sexbot9362 is here :)
[2024/03/18 16:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... as I recall it, you retreated back to the village, think you're all badly injured and zombies are on your tail. You've yet to find allies to help fight the red dragon, and it's getting late in the day
[2024/03/18 16:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: and with that reminder out of the way... let's meditate on the D&D Kitten, and hope for 1d4 points of bardic inspiration against the looming TPK
[2024/03/18 16:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: 
[2024/03/18 16:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: So, what do you do now?
[2024/03/18 16:47] QKR Sapphire: what's the apparent range to the zeds?
[2024/03/18 16:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: They were last seen punching Mecha nearly to death
[2024/03/18 16:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: so, quite close!
[2024/03/18 16:48] QKR Mecha: *Wait we ran getting some space*
[2024/03/18 16:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: you stayed back to fight 'em...
[2024/03/18 16:49] QKR Sapphire: for about two rounds before attempting to evac?
[2024/03/18 16:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: Something like that
[2024/03/18 16:50] QKR Sapphire: I think first order of business, get about a hundred feet of distance from these guys
[2024/03/18 16:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: How?
[2024/03/18 16:52] QKR Mecha: Up, gonna climb on the roof of a building and try to distract the zombies
[2024/03/18 16:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: ...how...?
[2024/03/18 16:52] QKR Mecha: As a Monk it is easy
[2024/03/18 16:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha: Fighter character
[2024/03/18 16:53] QKR Mecha: Oh shit this is the one shot...
[2024/03/18 16:53] QKR Sapphire: why does running not work?
[2024/03/18 16:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: where are you running to? They move at about the same speed as you do.
[2024/03/18 16:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: Yes Mecha, the one shot with the red dragon and the zombies after you!
[2024/03/18 16:55] QKR Sapphire: wait, what?
[2024/03/18 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: the one with the one shot character sheets
[2024/03/18 16:55] QKR Sapphire: I was not aware they matched us in speed
[2024/03/18 16:55] QKR Sapphire: we specifically theorized they were slower and didn't get corrected
[2024/03/18 16:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: they're human sized creatures... you're human sized creatures... you move at similar rates
[2024/03/18 16:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: you said you'd shoot them and run... I specifically said that wouldn't work
[2024/03/18 16:57] QKR Sapphire: that I remember, I do not recall being told the -reason- it wouldn't work was that they could keep pace with us
[2024/03/18 16:57] QKR Sapphire: so if they can keep pace with us, are you saying that retreat is non-possible?
[2024/03/18 16:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: because they move at the same speed...
[2024/03/18 16:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: I'm not clear where you're even retreating -to-
[2024/03/18 16:58] QKR Sapphire: at this point *away* would be acceptable
[2024/03/18 16:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay...
[2024/03/18 16:58] QKR Sapphire: but apparently these are fast zombies and we are not capable of sprinting
[2024/03/18 16:58] QKR Mecha: I'm gonna take a swing at one hopefully stagger it so it would slow down.
[2024/03/18 16:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: Not on a dirt track with the sun going down... I'd suggest that's not exactly sprinting conditions
[2024/03/18 16:59] QKR Sapphire: well, let's clarify
[2024/03/18 16:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay...?
[2024/03/18 16:59] QKR Sapphire: is sprinting literally impossible, or is it *risky* ?
[2024/03/18 17:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: hey, if you want to sprint, we'll give it a go, but this is the first time you said "sprint"
[2024/03/18 17:00] QKR Sapphire: partly because I'm still not familiar with how 2nd edition actually handles differing types of movement
[2024/03/18 17:01] QKR Sapphire: and I've been trying to speak narritively instead of exacting mechanical precision
[2024/03/18 17:01] QKR Mecha: If this one dies can she play an anime catgirl?
[2024/03/18 17:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: sprinting, I think, requires a perfectly straight flat surface with no debris, and you'll move at about double movement rate for... well, depends on your CON score, but, no more than about 20 rounds, I'd suggest
[2024/03/18 17:03] QKR Sapphire: hmmmm, is there some sort of "double move" by sacrificing the normal action or something that doesn't have the clear terrain requirement?
[2024/03/18 17:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: Flying?
[2024/03/18 17:04] QKR Sapphire: >.> As a human I don't seem to have wings or levitation.... but this village has huts I can use to at least move laterally and break line of sight. Would that be capable of getting out of the zeds attention?
[2024/03/18 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: you can try
[2024/03/18 17:05] QKR Sapphire: is that "can try" meaning failure is assured?
[2024/03/18 17:05] /me Sexbot9362: is it possible to open any doors on any of the huts or homes or buildings we pass ?
[2024/03/18 17:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: It means it's largely up to the dice and what everyone else does
[2024/03/18 17:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: The doors and windows all got banged shut with the sound of many bolts sliding into place
[2024/03/18 17:05] QKR Sapphire: are the odds closer to 50/50 or one in twenty?
[2024/03/18 17:06] QKR Sapphire: if the first, I'll go for it
[2024/03/18 17:06] QKR Mecha: Still gonna try to hobble a zombie with the footmans flail
[2024/03/18 17:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: Depends on what everyone else is doing and what the die rolls are. That I can't predict.
[2024/03/18 17:06] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 2
[2024/03/18 17:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... let's move on... Dina? What are you doing?
[2024/03/18 17:07] QKR Sapphire: f it, i'll just roll
[2024/03/18 17:07] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 5
[2024/03/18 17:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: waiting for Dina...
[2024/03/18 17:08] /me Sexbot9362: still following the group but also eyeing doors we pass and any close enough will at least try the door quickly
[2024/03/18 17:08] /me Sexbot9362: if that is possible
[2024/03/18 17:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay...
[2024/03/18 17:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha, d20...
[2024/03/18 17:09] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 10
[2024/03/18 17:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: Miss :P
[2024/03/18 17:10] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... so, the zombies stop to attack Mecha since she's like... right there
[2024/03/18 17:10] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 2
[2024/03/18 17:10] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 19
[2024/03/18 17:10] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 20
[2024/03/18 17:10] Sonja Bikergrrl: uh oh. The news isn't good.
[2024/03/18 17:10] QKR Sapphire: ♣
[2024/03/18 17:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: One misses, one hits and the other hits harder. Mecha is downed, and reduced to 0 hp.
[2024/03/18 17:11] QKR Mecha: *Oh can this one say it?*
[2024/03/18 17:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: At which point POOF! Mecha vanishes, replaced by a huge silver dragon, and there's a loud ROAR from the red dragon: "AHA! I SMELL YOU! I'M COMING!"
[2024/03/18 17:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: Think I just did, for narration, Mecha
[2024/03/18 17:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: aaaaaaaaaand you got two rounds before the red dragon arrives
[2024/03/18 17:14] QKR Mecha: /me nods
[2024/03/18 17:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: On the plus side? the zombies got squished.
[2024/03/18 17:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now what you doing?
[2024/03/18 17:15] QKR Mecha: I say hang on tight, we're out of here, before grabbing for them and if they let me I am flying out of the city as fast as possible towards where we were going to go
[2024/03/18 17:16] QKR Sapphire: "Crud. Alright, new plan, we go up the mountain at the fastest possible speed!" Sapphire moves to grab onto Mecha's talons for now
[2024/03/18 17:16] Sonja Bikergrrl: you think you can outfly the red dragon? which is coming from the mountain... you were supposed to go to....?
[2024/03/18 17:16] /me Sexbot9362: grabs on as well quickly
[2024/03/18 17:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: if only you had another suitable ally no more than two minutes away
[2024/03/18 17:17] QKR Sapphire: well, that was the plan for the mountain top, no?
[2024/03/18 17:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: Might even need two powerful allies, that's one mighty strong red dragon.
[2024/03/18 17:19] QKR Sapphire: "As far up the mountain as you can!"
[2024/03/18 17:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: you are familiar with your character sheets, right...? Just askin'....
[2024/03/18 17:20] QKR Sapphire: it seems like you think I'm trying for the wrong answer
[2024/03/18 17:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: No no, it's an answer, there's no right or wrongs.
[2024/03/18 17:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: What's Dina doing?
[2024/03/18 17:21] /me Sexbot9362 drops away for a moment to switch forms too and help with the red dragon in a much better way than in human form
[2024/03/18 17:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: Ah... another POOF! and Dina vanishes, replaced by a similarly sized silver dragon.
[2024/03/18 17:22] QKR Mecha: I release Dina as she changes form
[2024/03/18 17:22] QKR Sapphire: Sapphire clings on for now, planning to hold out and surprise the incoming one
[2024/03/18 17:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: Zooming across the forest that covers the lower part of the mountain, you see the red speck swell into a huge red winged form, the red dragon will be there in... mere moments. She sees two of you and... wait, TWO of you??? She wasn't expecting two!
[2024/03/18 17:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: looks like combat is about to take place... roll initiative and say what you're about to do
[2024/03/18 17:24] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 14
[2024/03/18 17:24] QKR Sapphire: "Get above him," Sapphire whispers up to Mecha, watching the scene carefully with a sword in one hand, trying not to be seen
[2024/03/18 17:24] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 11
[2024/03/18 17:25] QKR Mecha: We need to get out of this town. there are innocents here." So I'm going to fly at him, and try to get above him with the paralyzation gas. Hopefully away from town.
[2024/03/18 17:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll initiative
[2024/03/18 17:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2024/03/18 17:26] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 3
[2024/03/18 17:26] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 5
[2024/03/18 17:26] QKR Sapphire: (just as planned... )
[2024/03/18 17:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dina? d20 and what do you do?
[2024/03/18 17:27] /me Sexbot9362 will fly as fast as possible to get behind the red dragon going for claw , claw then tail strike and if it turns Im going to tackle the foolish chromatic, gith loving red scaled annoying dragon
[2024/03/18 17:27] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 13
[2024/03/18 17:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay...
[2024/03/18 17:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: Red dragon goes first (rolled 14), and first act, breathe fire straight ahead as Dina flies aside
[2024/03/18 17:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire and Mecha, save vs dragon breath; if I remember right Sapphire must roll over 14, and Mecha over.... 8
[2024/03/18 17:30] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 19
[2024/03/18 17:30] D20: Alicia Frakture rolls 11
[2024/03/18 17:31] D10: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 5
[2024/03/18 17:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dragon breath is 60 damage; Mecha saves and is singed for 30, Sapphire saves but is incinerated anyway... which is a tough break
[2024/03/18 17:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: but... POOF... the incinerated remains disappear, and Sapphire is now a silver dragon falling downwards, not that there's any other direction to fall really.
[2024/03/18 17:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dina is next!
[2024/03/18 17:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: claw and tail strike... okay... gonna need 3 d20 rolls here
[2024/03/18 17:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: (Can only do 2 claw attacks, tail strike is beyond ability)
[2024/03/18 17:34] QKR Sapphire: Well, I was planning to do a dive-bomb against the enemy dragon's wings anyway, stretching my claws out to rake them on the way down.
[2024/03/18 17:35] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 16
[2024/03/18 17:35] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 6
[2024/03/18 17:35] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 10
[2024/03/18 17:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: one claw hits, I'll allow the third as a bite... JUST hits...
[2024/03/18 17:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d8, and d6
[2024/03/18 17:36] D6: Kitten Venus rolls 2
[2024/03/18 17:36] D8: Kitten Venus rolls 8
[2024/03/18 17:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: claw does 8 damage, bite does... 10 damage
[2024/03/18 17:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire?
[2024/03/18 17:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: claws and bite, by the sound of it? 3x d20
[2024/03/18 17:37] QKR Sapphire: yeah
[2024/03/18 17:37] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 13
[2024/03/18 17:37] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 7
[2024/03/18 17:37] D20: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 14
[2024/03/18 17:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: over 10 to hit
[2024/03/18 17:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... d8, d6
[2024/03/18 17:38] D8: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 2
[2024/03/18 17:38] D6: MidnightMinion Cyberstar rolls 6
[2024/03/18 17:39] QKR Sapphire: no backstab or wing-damage?
[2024/03/18 17:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: well fuck.... that's gonna sting...
[2024/03/18 17:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: First round of combat and you're already bringing my BBEG below half health!
[2024/03/18 17:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: Red dragon roars in anger, claws and bites at Dina, and being the right size/age, gets a tail slap at Sapphire...
[2024/03/18 17:41] QKR Mecha: Um this one hasn't gone yet
[2024/03/18 17:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: ....
[2024/03/18 17:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh yeah!
[2024/03/18 17:41] QKR Mecha: *Gonna change my attack from the paralyzing gas to the cone of cold since it hasn't happened yet*
[2024/03/18 17:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire got incinerated, we took her go, and I checked initiative and she was last
[2024/03/18 17:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha!
[2024/03/18 17:42] QKR Mecha: Gonna get over and fire off a cone of cold on him from above
[2024/03/18 17:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... breath a cone of cold...
[2024/03/18 17:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: d10
[2024/03/18 17:43] D10: Alicia Frakture rolls 1
[2024/03/18 17:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: whoops.
[2024/03/18 17:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: That's still 14 points of cold... and now the red dragon is down to 1/3 health
[2024/03/18 17:44] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 11
[2024/03/18 17:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: Morale check: it's staying to fight, fuck you! Same attack as previous - claws/bite to Dina, tail slap to Sapphire, although next round it's Mecha for sure. If she survives...
[2024/03/18 17:45] D12: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2024/03/18 17:45] D12: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 9
[2024/03/18 17:45] D12: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 4
[2024/03/18 17:45] D10: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2024/03/18 17:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: well.... Dina gets clawed. 1 point of damage.... really....
[2024/03/18 17:46] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 11
[2024/03/18 17:46] D10: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 6
[2024/03/18 17:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Tail slap hits Sapphire, 12 damage, barely a flesh wound :|
[2024/03/18 17:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... now what do you three dragons do?
[2024/03/18 17:47] QKR Sapphire: Getting behind the enemy dragon so i can wash his wings with Paralytic Breath
[2024/03/18 17:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... Mecha, Dina?
[2024/03/18 17:48] QKR Mecha: Fire off a set of three magic missiles, preferably down its throat.
[2024/03/18 17:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: good lord... I feel sorry for the red dragon about now.
[2024/03/18 17:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dina?
[2024/03/18 17:48] /me Sexbot9362: will claw and claw and bite it again keeping it in close combat as soon as possible, if possible, tossing insults and generally letting it know how much this sexbot's character thinks of red dragons as nothing more than the problem in need of eradication among dragonkind
[2024/03/18 17:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me looks at Dina in some shock... isn't.... isn't Dina normally the nice quite inoffensive one...
[2024/03/18 17:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, 3x d20 then
[2024/03/18 17:49] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 10

[2024/03/18 17:49] D20: Kitten Venus rolls 6
[2024/03/18 17:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: one claw... d8
[2024/03/18 17:50] /me Sexbot9362: <---thinks red dragons, githyanki and illithids are just icky :P
[2024/03/18 17:50] D8: Kitten Venus rolls 6
[2024/03/18 17:50] QKR Mecha: LAe'zel? More like Bae'zel.*
[2024/03/18 17:50] QKR Mecha: *Sorry*
[2024/03/18 17:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha is next with a volley of magic missiles
[2024/03/18 17:50] /me Sexbot9362 *giggles* ok Lae'zel is an exception :)
[2024/03/18 17:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: d4, Mecha

[2024/03/18 18:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: Somehow I thought that'd be more in favour of the red dragon... eh. Dice gods disagreed.
