Lobisomem now attempting to track this rat smell, she's suspicious.

[Drakka]

Lobisomem is asking Santa to show the fungus, though staying near him for his sake.

[GranspearZX]

Arc is going to use the Wound Transfer spell again via his enchanted coin!

[Supercape]

Sure thing!

[Drakka]

Lobisomem have mostly accepted the upcoming battle and have started using Concealment, attempting to hide from view.

 

(Sorry I didn't reply for a little back there, I got hit with the flu for a little.)

[Supercape]

NO worries and so noted!

[Supercape]

Mind Reading DC 20 Will Save from you guys, please!

 

You may also roll a DC 20 Sense Motive check from the telepathy, -5 penalty to your roll unless you have the Animal Empathy Feat!

But got the Sense Motive

[Supercape]

Feel free to post accordingly. Lob can sense the mind probe, and its paranoid as hell!

[Drakka]

And now she's yelling and basically threatening them because she feels they are in a place she cannot tolerate.

[Drakka]

Lobisomem roars at the rat, trying to Intimidate them possibly, and is telling them to go away.

[Supercape]

See IC response. They are simply to furious to be intimidates at the moment, but they will at least listen!

[Drakka]

Lobisomem decided to take the word and sniffes at Vermin, though she intends to attack the rats if they are lying.

[Drakka]

Lobisomem strikes at the wall, attempting to instigate battle, no, she is not thinking right now.

[Supercape]

Ok so I think its some crazy threeway action!

 

Whatever happens, its initiative time!

 

Initiative: 1d20 12 for the many mind, with mysterious Init bonus is 29!

 

Initiative: 1d20+5 25 for Filth

 

Initiative: 1d20+13 15 for King Vermin

[Drakka]

1d20+5: 21

Kinda good

[GranspearZX]

Initiative: 1d20+5 21

[Supercape]

With the DEX tie that makes

 

29 - Many Mind - Unharmed (Scuttling in pipes around you)

25 - Filth - Unharmed

21 - Lob- Bruised, 3 HP (NB: Lopping off one bruise with the various time passed since the ant fight etc)

21 - Arc - Injured, 4 HP

15 - Vermin, Unhamred

 

Many Mind will start off with a Mental Blast 10 against Arcturus (Will Save DC 25)

Filth will pull out his pistol as a move action and back off (moving)

Lobisomem is up. 

[GranspearZX]

Will Save: 1d20+8 25

[Drakka]

Using Extra Effort to activate Surge and get two Standard Actions.

[Drakka]

Two attacks against the pipes the Many-Mind is in.

Piercing teeth attack: http://orokos.com/roll/591152

1d20+10: 28

Ok so I am going to have to play a bit fast and loose with the rules here as the many mind is...odd. 

 

So that surge action will count for something (and fatigue Lob, although of course he can HP out of it). The swipe and bite will smash open the pipes and several Many mind rats will fall out of it. The bit action will tear one asunder (its toughness is zero so unless you are pulling punches or using accurate attacks, I will simply waive that tough roll on the grounds of common sense). 

 

That makes Arc up. 

 

NOTE: I have taken a bit of licence here with Lob's action, and it is slightly "edgy" as you have killed a rat (a mutant evil overlord gestalt mind rat, but still). If you have any objections, please let me know and I will rewind. To my mind this felt reasonable and tried to do honour to intention and personality, but its your call. And you could always add in a new complication regarding rats.... if you want to roleplay taste, the many mind rat tastes of mutant brains and might even have a non-mechanical effect on mood/thinking/brain (or, if you want to spend an HP for inspiration, we could allow eating that brain gives you insight into the many mind).

Arc is going to move forward (move action) and try to intimidate the rat collective via Fearsome Presence.

[Supercape]

So their will is being eaten away by numbers depletion, but still high. 

 

Will Save: Will Save vs Fear: 1d20+11 16 which, I think despite being a bad roll, makes it? (I have it down as Fearsome Presence 3)

 

On a positive note, Vermin now feels you are on his side, and will thus act accordingly: With an attack bonus of +15 he can auto hit a rat, but only inflicts a damage 2 result. 

 

: 1d20 2 and another many mind rat bites the dust. 

 

In addition you may make a hearing notice roll DC 5, but 100' away (so -10 to roll unless you have extended hearing). 

 

 

Scuttling rats coming in! Lots of them! But what type of rats? See IC for the mystery!]

 

ROUND 2

29 - Many Mind Rats [18 left]  Unharmed. 8 Are on the floor, 10 more in the pipes. 

25 - Filth - Unharmed

21 - Lob- Bruised, Fatigued, 3 HP (NB: Lopping off one bruise with the various time passed since the ant fight etc)

21 - Arc - Injured, 4 HP

15 - Vermin, Unhamred

 

Note the Mind Rats have a Defence of +5 (15) and are minions. 

 

Many Mind Rats psionic powers are now depleted. They will fire off a mind control on Lobisomem, DC 19 Will Save

 

Filth, now emboldened and ordered by Vermin, will fire off a shot, taking 10 and hitting one. Tough Save vs Bullet: 1d20 2 this hits and kills another Mind Rat. Which incidentally lowers the Mind Control to DC 18, which means that if Lob got an "18" save" he will briefly fall under the mind control but snap out of it straight away when Filth kills a rat. 

 

Which means Lob is up again.
