/vx/ - Videogames and Paranormal

All 7 cast hold monster, which fail because Thez has magic resistance.

>>8372
Well, Trump's last action to call out to Tracy telling her not to attack

..H-how does she stop in mid air..?

First move goes to Torcuil, who I assume is using his transmutation rod to levitate

>>8375
Like wiley coyote

>>8370
runs to where thez is and cast burn on the faggots that are shooting at us for no reason.

[1d20 = 12]
>>8378
Burn? Can you be more specific?

>>8379
the enchantment on my sword. remember lennos did it.

>>8379
Also, how did you know you're next? You ARE next though

Trump's next move depends on whether Tracy attacks the law-bringers or not

>>8380
Oh right, the sword ignites. Unfortunately, they're flying and you can't close the distance.
All 7 of the Z's sprout golden spiked chains that start whirling around them.

*is reeing*
What happened in those last couple turns?

Ah shit, now I REALLY g2g...!

>>8385
You said an hour ish yes?

>>8386
Uh... GM, where was Tracy's last position, especially relative to the law-bringers and Trump

>>8387
Well, she said she wanted to know how to stop, so I'm assuming she did. It was her turn anyway. Her momentum carried her past you, but she's stopped.

>>8387
Its your move now. While you decide I'm gonna run my errand (it won't take 10, that was a worst-case)

>>8389
Well, if Tracy stopped before attacking the law bringers, Trump yells out "Get back! They are here to maintain law, not to attack us. But if you attack them, they may attack us and Port Barry. Back away from them!"

Also, if I have free moves, I want to ask Fae
1. Does she know why they may be here?
2. Is there any way to engage them diplomatically?
3. What is the clockwork plane?

>>8391
Fae says "Well, that's not quite true. They won't harm non-combatants, so the citizens will be safe. Also, it seems they're after that one, and we will be unable to reason with them," she says pointing to Thez, who is visible at the entrance

>>8392
Trumpaladin can only express "huh" to the thought that Thez might be their target.
"If the Blue One attacks, will they attack us?"

>>8393
"Unlikely, as long as we don't expressly provoke them or interfere."

"What's the matter? Are you lot just gonna stand there flapping your wings?" Thez goads the Z's.

>>8394
"Oh" Trump says to Fae. Trump yells out, not just to the Blue One, but to literally everyone "carry on!" as he continues to watch the scene.

It's much like when the police come and finally arrest that creepy guy who lives down the road. You don't really know why he's being arrested, but you are sure he deserves it, and it's an entertaining spectacle

[1d20 = 16]
"I guess its my turn then. I do so love breaking things," Thez says as from her little garter-knife sheath a full-length almost-katana. It's dark blue with little flecks of crystals embedded in it, and the back is jagged crystals (not an edge per say, but jagged enough to cut with) while the main edge is thick and blunted. It looks like a glorified Boken.
"Lets do this then!" and she leaps forward at the closest one, who gets an attack of opportunity.

>>8386
>gets back
Now what?

[5d20 = 34]
The chain glances off her, doing no damage and failing to grapple. She's wielding it two-handed, and attacks.

>>8399
Trumpaldin has released you. Do as you please

rly? Sigh.
The first 3 attacks land.

[1d20 = 3]
>>8400
i follow thezs lead and jump attack one of them.

>>8404
Fuck me right.

Rly? Rly. Oh well, that's still enough to send the first one crashing to the ground. Unfortunately, her sword gets tangled in its chains and she loses it.

>>8405
Its not your turn yet,... and you can't fly.

>>8407
i just jump realy good.

>>8409
Oh, you'll be able to hit him, but what then? Cat's fall or whatever only diminishes the damage from a fall by an effective 10 feet.

>>8409
Trumpaladin moves into position to rescue the falling inferius when he messes up his dice roll

>>8391
Idk if I'm even following, I missed so much
>sensed motive earlier
>has calmed down
*clears throat*
"Well, it seems pretty obvious to me..
Thez must have stolen something very important to a lot of very vengeful people and broken some kind of ironclad rule that maintains peace in the Mechanus realm, so they sent these things after her to deliver justice.
>is transitioning to lawful
".... So, ~Flashy, what are you going to do?"

*draws knife*

[1d20 = 4]
>>8410
i grapple with my second attack

[1d20 = 2]
So its Torcuil's turn, but levitate sucks (20'/round). I'm going to assume he uses his Power rod to magic missile.

>>8412
Trumpaladin flies over to Tracy, and offers her a bag of popcorn. Obviously he offered popcorn to Fae first.

... which is totally ineffective cuz Zs also have spell resistance.
>>8413
NOW its your turn. So, you're jumping at one, attacking, and then attempting a grapple? Are you sure that's what you want to do? You really should cast airwalk. Just saying.

>>8415
*accepts popcorn*
"Those spiked-chains look awesome.."

[1d20 = 9]
>>8416
yes thats my move.

*ponders how she's able to stand in mid air, suddenly*

[1d6 = 5]
>>8418
I did warn you. Infernius leaps magnificently from the tower and brings his flaming sword to bear against the Z. While his strike does not effectively land, he does damage from the fire.
As he attempts to make his second attack - a grapple - he realizes he is wielding a two-handed weapon and has no free hands.

>>8419
A lot of women wonder that after experiencing the Trump

>>8421
TOP KEK

>>8420
*sigh* move to intercept falling Inferius

[1d20 = 11]
and

>>8420
playing my character.

Trump grabs him but is unable to hold on, but Fae is able to grab him with her claws.

>>8426
Well played, I get it.

>>8428
as im falling im sobbing violently due to phobia of falling.

[6d20 = 59]
The Z that Infernius attacked is momentarily surprised, but pays him no mind as he falls away.
With Thez in the open, all six go full attack with their spinning chains.

>>8424
Have any of the bots been defeated?
>momentarily considers finishing one of them off in a sneak attack

In a dizzying display of acrobatic prowess, Thez deflty avoids every chain, laughing at some points at the Z's continuous failure.

>>8431
Trump gets an idea
"Maybe Lenos knows what the hell is going on"
Trump has Fae move over above and away from the fight, moving towards the top of the crystal. Inferius is set down on the top side of the crystal as Trump flies over to the control room where he expects Lenos to be

*continues watching the fight*

>>8434
Reminder, the crystal has a gravitic field. Its like velcro. Still that's fine. Its Tracy's move, and by my calculations she's still at least 10 minutes out.

Oh, snap

>>8436
>Tracy's move
Wait, what? I thought I was playing lawful and just watching.

>>8438
*moves closer?*

Alright. Trump does his thing, and its Thez' turn again.
She unravels one of the chains wrapped around her, which has a gunmetal-colored octahedron on the end. "I haven't used THIS in a while, should be fun though!"
>>8438
Thats fine, its just the sequence of initiative.

*stealth*

>>8440
By the way, this should free Inferius for actions, although it would probably take a round or so to get back to the fight

[4d20 = 51]
She starts flailing the chain about, attacking another of the Zs
>>8442
Correct, he's up in a sec.

No rape

[4d8+124 = 140]
Success

And a second of the Z's comes crashing to the ground, several small pieces breaking off on the way.

>>8447
*interest perks*
*zooms dopwn towards the wreckage to appraise loot*

Torcuil, who is now 60' off the ground decides to hold off on his assault and wait the scene out.

Infernius' turn

>>8450
ok im on top of the pyramid right?

>>8451
You should be near enough an entrance

[1d20 = 14]
>>8451
Correct.

>>8452
>>8453
uh?

Do i need to activate my Appraise, Use Magic device, Disable device, or craft skills to resource these bodies?

*Hides machine parts in undisclosed location, after pulling-out their cores*

>>8448
Its a pile of alabaster (the 'skin') and an intricate array of varying metals all sprocketed and geared together. The armor is the same type of metal that the weapons in the treasury were comprised of, and many of the servos and joints are of more precious/rare metal. The whole pile (there's two so far) is a veritable pile of really good/useful shit, not to mention the spiked chains (they have 2 each).

>>8455
You're in the middle of a field. Where do you plan to hide it, and/or how do you plan to sneak off with it? e_e
>>8454
The dice was for Tracy's appraise/search check.

>>8453
can i get where i am above the zs?

Well, if it's my turn

Trump now sets down on a top entrance and enters the tower, heading straight towards Lenos

>>8458
Not directly, but generally you can move to where you'll be roughly overhead ish.

>>8456
>thief quirks don't fail me now
*hides in hiding spotso nobody else can use it after pocketing the pieces that seem most valuable*
>>8457
>stealth
*covers in dirt*

[1d20 = 19]
>>8460
ok i try a plungeing attack. and after i hit or miss i cast airwalk.

>>8462
Did you ever stick the sword in the keen machine?

>>8463
I think once, but that was a long time ago, before he modified it.

>>8463
yea i think i did.

[1d100 = 9]
>>8465
I'll take it.

>>8449
Eyyy I like thss Idea when Im gone

>>8467
ey meme machine.

[1d6 = 44]
That didn't work. Lemme try this.

>>8469
Eyyy, beef steaks
So, if I am not mistaken. It's the cenataurs that are attacking, right?
