Garv’s (first) grapple fails. Posey has wounded it. It’s not responding to Silver’s questions given how it has been seriously cut up. It has been physically knocked prone by Silver.
Sure, roll initiative to clarify (especially if the actions involve attacks or spells). Brie gets preference because he would have presumably had the opportunity to act.
>>179804
Yes.

I would normally initiate a Duel Of Wills during an initiative roll, but given the only enemy has been ignoring me, I won't.
[1d20+9 = (4+9) = 13]
"Sh-should I finish him..? I can finish him, re-right?" Posey says, her eyes giving off on unsettling yellow glow as her battle instincts take over. Her voice normally calm and professional cracks as she holds herself back, metaphorically chomping at the bit.
>>179813
Nice roll.

Can we iron out out differences before I have to wonder what you mean by comments? "Nice roll" seems innocuous, but c'mon, lets not pretend this is our first rodeo

I don’t know what that is, but your character already has more special everything than the rest of the party combined and she doesn’t need to take everything from them

Eeyup, as I said he's a very dexterous and flexible pony.

Grapple: If Brie's turn is finished, Kira slithers over to the mystery pony/creature and attempts to restrain him, to prevent further conflict.
First, Kira attempts to get her coils around him as he's prone on the ground (touch attack).

Oh, that would require an opposed grapple check, right? Kira, pulling the pony into her coils, attempts to keep him from drawing his gun.

Did the pony have the revolver already drawn before being grappled? I'm reading here that you need to succeed on an opposed grapple check to draw a light weapon...

"I can kill him, right? Nopony would know if I killed him. He attacked us: you reap what you sow. I could snuff him out right now!"
The veneer of civilization begins to crack as Rosey Ring smells blood, her eyes glowing as if hot coals.
Nevertheless, she awaits approval to kill.

I think that that line in the rules refers to someone who is doing the grappling, rather than the one being grappled. I assume the implication is that someone who is grappled can’t pull a light weapon at all. All you need to not be grappled is to succeed on a grapple check; succeeding kn a grapple check as a precondition to pull a light weapon doesn’t make much sense to me.
In any case, the pony pulling a revolver is more dramatic, although it would also make sense if, depending on where the revolver is located, he couldn’t reach it while being attacked by a constructor snake.
>>179863
Brie hears the sound of a gunshot, the seaplane’s engines revving up as it flies away, the sound of waves crashing, and what sounds like a metal door swinging further down the beach on the left. He sees nothing of interest besides the obvious.
>>179865

Literally Posey is asking for permission. I do not understand the issue.

Reading from the SRD, it seems like the actions apply to both characters involved in the grapple, regardless of who started it. It seems like you have the option of either attempting to break free of the grapple, which ends your turn, or you can attempt to make a grapple check to draw a light weapon and have the option of attacking with it while grappled during that turn.
I will admit though, him drawing the weapon is more dramatic.
>>179877
Silver: "Let us not kill him just yet until we know what we are dealing with."

Mala moves in, evidently position himself to stab the pony with his bayonet.

I am genuinely baffled as to what the issue is. It’s Posey’s turn. Posey uses the free action of talking to ask permission to stab the now-hostile pony before making a move or attack action. I sincerely do not understand the problem.

"B-b-but..! I was so close..!" Posey responds, the frantic desperation clear in her voice
"Aaaagh! Fine!" she snarls, dropping her weapon
Posey turns and makes two unarmed strikes with her hind legs, dealing only subdual damage
[1d20+6 = (18+6) = 24]
[1d20+6 = (3+6) = 9]
This mod might be fucked up, but idk
Also a slam attack (hip check) at a -4 penalty to do only subdual damage
[1d20-1 = (6-1) = 5]

Dust approaches the held pony, and attempts to diagnose him for any medical issues he can while said pony is being held in a giant snej. Rolling heal.

Can the snej be used as a blood pressure cuff?

>>179888
The pony has been:
Stabbed pretty brutally. This is actually a serious medical issue requiring attention.
It’s been kicked
It’s also been attacked by a giant snake.
Besides this, it’s suffering from delirium, it’s shivering for reasons unknown, and may have other issues.
>>179890
Possible enchantment. Hard to say.

Dust really wishes ponies and creatures alike would stop hitting his patient.
>>179898
Dust heaves a big sigh
"If you were going to kill him anyway
Could you at least wait until I was out of the way?"
Heal check to at least stabilize the pony so he does not die while they deside what to do

"Not only can we not interrogate him for information, but the gunshot means our position may be revealed. Once you are finished, doctor, we will need to hurry out of here."
He takes 10 with a +4 modifier to tie up the stallion with a length of rope, and gags him as well.

Mala, who is leaning over towards the intruder pony, still holding his shotgun, has his eyes wide open and is smiling. But when Dust complains to him, he frowns, moves away, lowers his ears, and steps back, letting his shotgun fall onto his sling.

The pony has a combination of bludgeoning and stabbing damage. The most serious issue is the stab wound, which is bleeding. Give the pony stitches, cover the wound to stop the bleeding, disinfect the wound, and give painkillers if desired/necessary.
>>179901
He is acting like he is. It isn’t cold enough for that, except in the water. His hooves and lower legs show signs of water, but his uniform doesn’t feel wet.

Don't need painkillers if you're unconscious. Oh well, to late to fix anything. Dust sighs and pats the yeen's shoulder before plodding a little ways away.
End o' my turn.

For a moment, the fog starts to clear. Above the ponies crests a grassy hill. To the left from where the pony came is a small bay and what looks like a few structures. To the right is the end of the island, and another smaller, cliff-faced island.

Kira knows she has limited resources...but she can't just leave this pony like this. She mutters a prayer in a language the rest of the party can't understand, then presses her hoof to the pony's snoot. A golden light and warmth spreads down the pony's body, starting from his nose.
Silver goes over to comfort Mala, giving him pets and telling him, "You did good, my friend. You did really good."

Combat's over so I guess initiative doesn't matter.
"That's the plan. This rope should be enough to reach the base of the cliff."
He runs to the edge of the water and jumps to take off. Not a particularly competent flier and bearing some weight, he makes a long, wide turn before he climbs at a shallow angle to the top of the cliff.

He seems to be insistent that initiative carries out of combat, and thus is gonna make us wait until he takes a turn before he lets you specifically do anything else without complaining.

I'm just going to filter Brie's player, because he's having a hissy fit and I don't have the energy to deal with him right now. If he does anything relevant to my character, someone else let me know.
That aside.
What direction do we want to go in? Do we climb the cliff, go in the direction the pony came from, or over the grassy hill?
We could use some healing magic to revive and interrogate this pony, but that has a resource cost.
I'm any case, we should move quickly, because our presence has been revealed by the gunshot.
We now know that we are not alone on this island. There could be more pony enemies.

The players have four options:
Walk along the beach towards the small bay
Walk along the beach towards the edge of the wall
Go straight up the cliff and to the hill

Stealthy characters should scout that direction before we decide to go there.

She looks at the unconscious pony
"Enemies already occupy this island. It's possible that our colts may already be detained, or worse. We should locate the rest of this pony's comrades."

Realizes he should probably have stuck around longer before flying away.
He attempts to locate a decent spot for the other creatures to climb up, one which is shallower and not too jagged yet offers holds. He takes 10 to drive his grappling hook into the spot and tie the rope to it before letting it down. Brie should be keeping watch during this.

Look for any signs of electric lights that the communists might be using in the fog. We need to locate the enemy.
It might be suitable to climb the cliff anyway: we want high ground advantage.
