Well how about that,... air pirates. And they call their ship a derivative of "Cunt" too. I wonder if there's a connection, GM says dryly.
This leg of the game has the players either onboard or somewhere in the vicinity of the 'random' pirate airship that has taken to firing upon Trump Tower, as well as several of the characters. Unfortunately, a spell-caster onboard has placed a spell of Peace on the ship, and now there's a shimmering wall of force surrounding the captain.
Thez is hovering about 45deg from the front, ready to attack. Lenos is preparing for a Meteor Swarm, Infernius is speeding toward the ship, and Torcuil said "Fuck the Bullshit" and just teleported to it.
Trump wants to engage in diplomacy, but he rolled a 1 so he has to wait, and Tracy can't stab at ALL, which is an entirely new sensation for her.

>>42328Tries one more time to talk to captain
"Excuse me, can you tell me why you attacked our tower and city?"
Also, Fae was called a while ago, I assume she's nearing?
has lenos gotten close enough to physicaly attack the balloons with his sword?
>>42332You have a lady with excellent tastes
[3d20 = 42]>>42324*grabs torc*
*brings him through the deck towards the captain.*
"Fix it!" she demands, gesturing to the wall of force.
>>42330Cast the spell.
also, rolling to kill both those noobs below the deck because why not?
>>42336im lighting my sword on fire hen attacking
>>42337You're back on deck, remember?
>>42336That's the trigger-word for his sword's Flaming Burst ability
>>42340No shit. Why is he attacking
>>42341They attacked us, and he's chaotic.
>>42337Uh, okay?
Torc wrecks the wall of force, then casts the Sex Offender Shuffle
[3d20 = 31]
[4d20 = 43]
Fine
Trumpaladin slashes to kill something
Also, Fae should be here, so she's ordered to pounce on some guy
>>42345>Fae should be hereShe flies at the same speed Lenos walks.
>>42342Technically, the party "attacked first" from the perspective of the pirates. What the pirates don't know is that the "flaming explosion" attack was Lenos awkwardly detecting Thez' shenanigens and had no violent intentions behind them.
>>42344One at a time please, roll a dispel check
>>42344>Sex offender shuffleHarsh
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfCYZ3pks48>>42346Under d&d rules the Mount dimension doors in the round after it is called. It's GM who makes it take so damned long
>>42347It's not my fault the rest of my party are idiots. I just wanted to ask a few basic questions
>>42351I know right
>>42352Kek
>>42347Tracy is just killing because she wants to now.
>>42350>3Try again
>>42349Because under D&D rules the mount is an extra-dimensional creature that is veritably summoned to the spot. But we're not GOING by D&D rules are we?
[1d20 = 9]>>42351Whats that supposed to mean?
>>42355Trying again
>>42355That's how she came the first time. From a different dimension. Just not summoned
Fine
"Fae I summon thee"
*does hand movements as appropriate*
>>42355has lenos gotten close enough to the balloons to hit them with his sword
>>42355Since she's not an extraplanar creature, can she still be brought back if she's kill?
>>42356Disintegrate!>>42353>I just wanted to ask a few basic questionsThen why did you order Fae to attack as well?
>>42359I was wondering the same thing earlier today. I think she's racially a magic beast, and so has a dual nature
>>42362Did they confuse us for the Court City Pyramid in the water? Why did they attack us? I want to know
>>42364you can ask the captain, but his men die for this slight against port barry.
>>42364Don't worry, you get a new one in a month.
[1d20 = 10]>>42363Fine, Torc sets his phaser to disintegrate and makes a disintegration roll
>>42363I'd rather ask questions, but if you fuck ups are going to destroy that for me, then I'm taking xp as well
>>42366They did fire at the city
>>42367*glares*
>>42369So do you want to negotiate while they're cowering, or do you want XP?
>>42369ask your questions you found the captain.
>>42357KEK
>>42358Yes that. Its a good thing Lenos is above the "balloon", cuz otherwise I'd have alot of explaining to do. The Sword passes harmlessly through the balloon, given both the nature of the sword and the nature of the balloon.
>>42364That is unknown. There's lots of pirates to kill, a guy in less piratey equipment, and an impenetrable sphere overlooking a blackjack table, filled with about 10 people dancing hysterically.
>>42371Tracy will just shove the captain in her bag and suffocate him.
>>42371>>42372Oh fuck it
Order Tracy to attack, and slash as appropriate
>>42372This dancing is the best idea I ever had.
>-10 refl savesHave fun guys
[1d20+21 = 40]
[3d20 = 32]
*loose 60-ft chain*
Attack nearest pirate
Intimidate check
[4d20 = 48]
Full Round Slashing!
*puts sword away and glares at balloons before heading to the deck to burn pirates*
[3d20 = 10]>>42376Can, can she cleave that?
>>42378*stands back a bit*
Alright, can we just assume the Pirates got owned? They were only level 6-8, and there was only a couple dozen of them.
>>42379No
>>42381But Torc was enjoying the dancing!
>>42381Can I approach and stare the hell down the people at the blackjack table?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcKW2xDcxLM >>42383The ones dancing are in the wall of force. They're still dancing.
>>42385I know right. I just wanted to ask why they were shooting at us and the city
>>42386"I appreciate your moves, but can you tell us why the hell you shot at our base and our city?"
[1d20+21 = 23]>>42384Intimidate Check for that
Also, cast Doom on the Captain.
>>42389Eventually the wall of force disappears (it only gets 1 round/level) and as it does so, the Captain and those inside continue to dance. Its ludicrous to think they're still under the effects of the spell, so the dancing must be voluntary.
>>42391My sides have left the planet
>>42391Dismount horse
>>42395These xp whores aren't taking it all
Eventually the captain and his cohorts realize that they're not surrounded by their men who are in fact dead and dying along the deck of the ship.
"Let me guess, you want,..." he cuts off, and runs toward the rear of the ship.
[1d20 = 17]>>42391>>42397Rolling to make a trip attack with the spiked chain
Doom once more
>>42396This is why I prefer neutral ebil
>>42398That son of a bitch knows something of value. Maybe even a Unicorn!
>>42397Follows as fast as he can run. Which is like 3x speed
>>42399Then we'll ask him ourselves
she just tripped him up
[3d20 = 29]
Fae, having most definitely been summoned, is ordered to Pounce on a cohort
Pounce!
*bellows* don't kill him I want to torture him for awhile
>>42405After we're done torturing him, lets open a Gate and throw him into the Abyss.
>>42404Perfect
>>42397"So now... Who are you, where do you come from, why are you here, and why the actual fuck were you shooting at us?"
>>42402It does trip him up, and as he tips forward he grabs his hat and acrobatically/gracefully flips in mid-air and lands on his feet in a continuous run, casting a sly glance at Tracy as he does so
>>42404You have a choice. Did you succeed the grapple, or did you stay on the ship?
>>42410Well I couldn't find hold person, so fuck off
[3d20 = 39]>>42409Oh no he doesn't!
MOUNT FLYING THING AND CHASE HIM!
Tracy and Trump go after him, Fae pounces cohorts
Rolling for Pounce because damn it, I have a death machine and I am using it
>>42412>>42409Tracy promptly pursues the two beneath the ground.
>>42415Why you kill all of the cohorts if you want info?
>>42412And so you did. Unfortunately, that glorious tackle-grab that resulted in him being in possession, also resulted in the both of you rolling off the ship.
>>42416Noted
>>42416towards the ground*
>>42415Make a ride check to mount rapidly. She's going either way.
>>42418>>42416Superb point
"Take them alive if possible Fae!"
Tries to get the Infernius and Captain
>>42419Mounts horse anyways
The rest of the "Captain's Cohorts" freeze in place, but a well-dressed mage steps forth wearing a well-tailored black suit with emerald pinstripes and fine accoutrements (pocket watch, crystal monacle, proper white gloves, spats, etc.)
>>42421Seriously, make the rapid-mounting check
She'll react differently if he's riding her.
bring him to the tower training room when you catch him ill be ready to start the torture by the time you get him there *heads for the tower training room*
>>42425You don't want to fight that mage?You rolled short.
Tracy flies down to grab Infernius and stuff the captain in her bag.
>>42428I'm nerfing your flying soon
If Trumpaladin has to roll a 15 to get on a horse you can fucking walk
>>42432He has to roll a 20 or higher to mount rapidly, and Infernius was at terminal velocity.
>>42434>Has to roll a 20You're definitely fucking nerfed. The next time your character tries to fly or avoid falling to death, post deletion and ban
\r
*spots mage and turns around and heads back to the ship* The mage is mine to kill
>>42436Stahp. Stop fucking up the story. Let us get some exposition to move the story along for Christ sake
>>42426"If I give you my name, will you accept a duel?" he says with a sneer, as though he expects Torcuil's refusal.
>>42433>in the bagRly?
>>42436You're way outside, only Thez can <whoooof>
>>42439You're welcome to wait, but Lenos can still attack. His character has no reason not to.
>>42440>in the bagHe'll suffocate, but it's still easy storage.
>>42440*suffocates in german Minotaur*
>>42440>>42441*Removes captain from bag*
Shackle
>>42440"Nah, I'm not really feeling a duel today."
>>42441Fine, roll a d20 to catch Infernius, and what about the guy he's grappelling?
>>42444>>42442We're so not there yet
>>42445"A pity then, the GM was looking forward to lining Bones with my suit. Adieu,...."
F> Weird
>>42446who needs to roll a d20 im confused now
>>42447>>42445he just called you a bitch torc, are you gonna take that?
>>42450F> is the mage. I haven't gone back and looked at what I determined his name was, but he's far past pleasantries so I figure I can wait on that. He's subjecting the party to wicked-level illusions and mind-games n shit.
Meanwhile, Infernius finds, upon attempting to detain the increasingly wiley captain, that he is holding a cheap bathrobe, and that the real captain is falling at standard speed with a smirk on his face.
>>42464"reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee tracy go get em."
>>42465As he looks at the increasingly descending captain, the sky around him turns red, the clouds catch fire, and the whole planet beneath turns to ash and ember. The air chokes him, and there are no kitties.
>>42469"lennos take out cat wand!"
>>42467>>42469Oh. Cast dispel magic on self
>>42470is dying and cat hardly see keyboard
>>42443
As Tracy holds Infernius he begins to shift. She looks down and finds she's holding a weird octopus creature that has Trollestia's hed on the tips of each tentacle.
>>42476That's 2. We'll leave it at "enough to dispel the illusion". Torcuil never got his either. So the party shakes off the lingering image of the illusion,... you do know that was an illusion right? Don't worry, there are still kitties.
Unfortunately the Captain, the Mage, and the Cleric from the ship's crew seem to have made an effective escape.
[1d20+11 = 13][1d20 = 1]>>42479From Midair? Spot check and Fae can spot check
gm infernious you bastards im still laughing and my sides hurt now
>>42479"me sure this will be the last we see of them."
>>42484>>42482"Now let's ransack their shit. Take their ship, figure out how it works, see what goodies are here, resurrect a pirate or more later and ask 'em questions, and maybe see if any of them want jobs"
>>42485The ship is littered with mostly/partially full bottles of alcohol, and the small kitchen is laden with a largely devoured boar. They appear to have been having a dinner party.
>>42488Is there a map for navigation in the cock pit? Is anything marked on it?
>>42489This. Fae should be here, so there should be at least one kitty
>>42488>>42490i think they got drunk and accidentally shot at us.
>>42491Kek. They shot a hell of a lot of cannon balls though
>>42490Fae arrives, "Sorry I'm late, the GM forgot about me,... again."
>>42489The thought of "No kittens" echoes to Infernius
>>42492"It wasn't accidental, but I don't think they expected that kind of response," Thez offers. "Its not a balloon at all, its a floating rock!" she says, punching the "balloon".
>>42493*pets dander-free feline*
"It's okay, I love you"
To Thez
"Do you know why they attacked?"
>>42493no wonder i couldn't pop it*folds arms and glares at the floating rock*
>>42494>Shrugs>>42495"No, for real this time, its a flying rock."
>>42497"Have you seen them before?"
>>42498"Nope," her attention is waning, she seems particularly curious about the ship and its ammenities.
>>42499May as well inspect the weapons. There were 14 cannons - are they on a separate deck, is that the entire complement?
well good night all lenos's faggot has to be up early to try and get broken truck fixed
>>42499"you think we can make more ships?"
>>42500They're all fixed into the starboard side of the ship, with three forward facing cannons on top of it. The cannons appear operated and fed by an intricate array of mechanisms, all controlled by a hand crank.
>>42501Lenos inspects the bar, later
>>42502Thez looks at him like he just asked her something silly. "I don't even know what it is exactly,... but its cozy."
infernuis want to skull fuck a beholder.
>>42507I've made a note. Their environment isn't as stringent as I thought, so I'll make sure you come across one. It will probably be a mount for a black-guard lich mind flayer tho.
>>42512>All that shitYou may as well have us fight Nyarlathotep riding Yog-Sothoth
>>42512ill just mind fuck the mind flayer.
>>42514Is Yog-Sothoth the flying spaghetti monster?
https://youtu.be/cE1FrqheQNI >>42521>deleted it myselfBrains are fattening apparently.

>>42481You fugged up
>>42483Dancing airpirates was amazing
>>42525>>42527Bruh
>>42531Saved
Whats a Mindflayer? Sounds Lovecraftian
>>42532This pic is my favorite. It appears to be a Mind Flayer Monk,... which would be just absurd.
>>42537they eat your brain and gain your knowledge.
>>42537Uber intelligent, but yes.
Testing the other dice rolling
[1d20 = 18]
>>42548Don't feel bad, idk either
Alright. Since I'm no longer invested in the 4cc, I'll be here-abouts if anyone wants to do stuff
>>42549Can Tracy select Sneak Attack of Opportunity and Lingering Damage as her bonus feats? She meets the prerequisites, but Idk how ebin feats work.
>>42550At epic level, of course she can, provided that the class allows those as bonus feats (which I'll bet they will)
>>42549infernuis transforms into pickle infernuis
>>42552She's not gonna say it, but she's thinking it.
