@Avenger Assembled

Neko illusion look like it is starting to spread some doubt among the crowd. Roll me a Diplomacy or a Power Check (the one you prefer) to see how effective it is.

The gorillas charge Owain, the first one however is bitten and fails the toughness save, being Ko-ed by the young knight before he can strike. 

The second one hits with a 22 - Save DC is 25. 

 

@Dr Archeville it's Horrorshow turn

@Spacefurry if you want Chimera can also go since  you are in two different places after all

Edited January 13, 2022 by Nerdzul

[Spacefurry]

Well then, Chimera will attack the goon that hit Owain. Looks like that would be goon D.

Melee attack: 22

[Dr Archeville]

IIRC*, Horrrorshow's Dazed condition means he cannot take any actions, though he is not flat-footed and so still has his full Defense. 

 

* I don't have access to me books at the moment, but I didn't want to hold anyone up.

 

EDIT: Yup, confirmed, a Dazed character can take no actions, but retains their Dodge bonus to Defense.

26 - Mr Tak (no damage) - Shaken

21 - Gorilla Goon A  (Horrorshow) (no damage) 

21 - Gorilla Goon B (Horrorshow) (no damage)

19 - The Gentleman (no damage)

18 - Fiery Fury (no damage)

14 - Neko (no damage) - 2 HP

13 - Owain (no damage)

11 - Horrorshow's (Bruised) - 1 HP 

10 - Shadowy Teen (no damage) - Delayed initiative. 

4 - Chimera (no damage) - 3 HP

 

Chimera takes down her goon and both the Gorillas are now on the floor.

 

Horrorshow clears his dazed. 

 

The shadowy teens still seems unsure about what to do. He asks the guard what is going on. 

 

Mr. Tak uses some kind of power to surround Chimera, Owain, Fiery Fury and the Gentleman (when they arrrive) with what seems like a ring of fire and to send the goons away (disappearing them somehow)

 

Gorilla A goes to confront the Shaodwy Teen 

Gorilla B however tries to grapple Horrorshow, but misses 11

 

The Gentleman flies over the new makeshift arena. He introduces himself and uses a Snare on Owain, but misses. 14 

The Fiery Fury dashes in and generate a small explosion of flames. Save DC 18 to avoid for Chimera and Owain, DC 23/19 for damages

 

This turn the villains are a bit less lucky hehe.

 

The wolf-masked guy by the door will address Neko, but not attack.

 

IC will happen shortly.

 

@Avenger Assembled it's Neko and Owain's turn again, remember the rolls for the Goon's damage as well on Owain and the diplomacy or power check for Neko to see how effective is the illusion in persuading the crowd that there is something wrong going on.

 

@Dr Archeville You can also go if you like, since you are in two separate arenas

[Spacefurry]

I assume the DC18 is a Reflex save: 12

Damn, Toughness: 17

Shoot, missed by 6

That’s a bruise and dazed.

[Avenger Assembled]

Okay: 

Does Owain's Takedown Attack let him hit the second minion after taking down the first one? He's got Takedown Attack 2 as the wolf. 

 

Diplomacy: 17

If he does need to make the Tou save: Tou: 17 

 

Well neither of those are great! I'll spend the HP to reroll Diplomacy 

https://orokos.com/roll/928749 31!

[Nerdzul]

Sure, the two are close enough that he can use take down attack, go for it. In case he can use it to try and take down the guy before he is hit (but he still has to save against the burst of fire from Fiery Fury). 

 

And woah for the diplomacy check hehe.

 

[Dr Archeville]

Okay, Horrorshow will

 

Standard Action: Wallop Goon B with his meaty fists.  You said they could be treated as Minions, so I'll Take 10 on that attack, getting a 20, which should hit.  Goon B'll need to make a DC 20 Toughness save.

 

Move Action: Trying to Intimidate both Goon A & Shadowy Teen into standing down.  That will impose a -5 penalty for Intimidating as a Move action, and another -2 for Intimidating multiple targets, so a -7 penalty total.  With his Skill Mastery, he normally has a 29 on intimidate, but the penalties reduce that to 22.  (The result of the attack on Goon B may affect this further!)

 

[Avenger Assembled]

I'll let him take the hit (hey, somebody's gotta get hurt so the bad guys look tough) but take 10 to hit the other minion before he takes the hit. 

[Nerdzul]

The gorilla is down. @Dr Archeville with a 17 Toughness.

 

And sure works for me @Avenger Assembled. The two goons are down. Take an hero point though. 

 

You both can give me an IC

4 - Chimera (bruised\dazed) - 3 HP

 

@Spacefurry it's time for Chimera

 

 

[Dr Archeville]

For the record, Davyd has a Skill Mastety'd Sense Motive of 24.

 

[Nerdzul]

Reluctantly Mr. Tak moves to confront Neko so that she will not interfere with the fight between Chimera, Owain, The Gentleman and Fiery Fury.

He tries to snare her with a conjured leash (although, to Neko's expert eyes, it feels like the creation was just an illusion of sort) but he is still a bit shaken from her scary illusion from before and misses with a 12.

 

The gorilla that is with Davyd does not act, on instruction from the Cobra-masked woman. 

 

Fiery Fury attacks Chimera with her massive sword, but she is not spectacularly lucky as well, with another 12. 

 

The Gentleman creates a small swarm of knives apparently made of telekinetic energy and tosses them at Owain and hits with a 19, the attack has autofire, but didn't manage to hit by more than 1, so I guess is only DC 21 

 

@Avenger Assembled And it's Owain and neko's turns.

 

....

 

@Dr Archeville Davyd Sense Motive suggests him that the woman (Miss Nagi) is at least technically honest and likely all the fighters are there by their own volition, but there is a chance that, at least for some of them, their choices to participate hadn't been totally spontaneous or that they didn't have much of an alternative anyway. If you want you can also post.

Edited January 23, 2022 by Nerdzul

[Avenger Assembled]

Neko drops her visual and auditory Obscure on Tak and tries another Intimidate: 25

 

[Nerdzul]

Btw. I was thinking that since there is no active villains between Neko\Owain and chimera, @Spacefurryyou can also go if you like

[Dr Archeville]

With his Skill Mastery (and no other modifiers), Horrorshow gets a 29 on his Diplomacy check.  And on Intimidate checks!  And Bluff!

 

And, yes, "Genadyevich" and "Egorov" are close Russian analogues to "Jekyll" and "Hyde."

 

[Avenger Assembled]

Neko is going to use the Fascinate on her Intimidate here, BTW. 

 

Tou vs 21 for Owain: 

https://orokos.com/roll/930386 

 

Another bruise, ow! 

Okay, he's going to go straight for the Gentleman! 

24!

 

That's a DC 23 Tou save. 

 

[Spacefurry]

Chimera will attempt to Stun Fury: 19

HP to reroll: 20...

Well that was a waste.

On the off chance it hit, DC18 Fort save needed for Fury.

[Nerdzul]

19 is a hit, I'm gonna have to wait to go back home to roll for the saves though. I will post in IC once I'm back home.

[Nerdzul]

The villains are also pretty lucky though. 

The Gentleman is Bruised with 21, but Fiery Fury shrugs the stun off with a 27

 

Give me an IC @Spacefurry and @Avenger Assembled(for Owain)

[Nerdzul]

26 - Mr Tak (no damage) - Shaken

21 - Gorilla Goon B (Horrorshow) (no damage)

19 - The Gentleman (no damage)

18 - Fiery Fury (no damage)

14 - Neko (no damage) - 3 HP

13 - Owain (bruised)

11 - Horrorshow's (Bruised) - 1 HP 

10 -Shadowy Teen (no damage) - Delayed initiative. 

9 - Miss Nagi woman (no damage)

4 - Chimera (bruised) - 3 HP

 

Miss Nagi seems convinced by Horrorshow charade. The goon that is with Horrorshow will not attack again under her direction. Nor will the Shadowy Teen. 

 

Mr Tak is intimidated again and remains shaken (he auto fails the roll as courage is not his forte). He is also unable to see Neko, but she gets the impression that he could still track through some form of enhanced scent, he conjure a circle of flame with a roughly 5ft radius at her position that roughly surrounds her, but does not harm her, at least unless she tries to cross it. 

 

The Gentleman unleashes a telekinetic burst toward Owain (it's a trip+knockback attack) but he barely misses with a 17. 

 

Fiery Fury creates a line of molten earth starting from her sword and headed toward Chimera. Reflex Save DC is 18. And it's both damage (DC 21/18) and a linked snare (DC 18/14). 

 

@Avenger Assembled is Neko's and Owain's turn again

 

 

 

 

Edited February 2, 2022 by Nerdzul

[Spacefurry]

Reflex save: 15

Toughness save (-1 for bruised) 18

That’s another bruised, but not dazed.

Reflex vs Snare: 28

At least she made the Reflex with style.  

[Avenger Assembled]

Neko proceeds to stunt the following effect off her Yokai array (note that she doesn't have to drop the Obscure to do this, since it's Continuous, it'll stay up even if she's unconscious, but only for Tak as long as he remains within 250 ft of where she applied the effect: 

 

Emotion Control 8 (Extra: Secondary Effect, Flaw: Fear Only) + Illusion 8 (horrible things, visual) {24/24} 

 

Emotion Control is a contested roll, so - 24

 

 

 

[Nerdzul]

Mr. Tak fails the emotion control roll by a lot, he is pretty much out from the fight. 11

@Avenger Assembledit's Owain turn as well. 

 

@Spacefurry and @Dr Archeville you can also go since there is no active enemies in between

[Spacefurry]

Using standard action to Regen.

Con check DC10: 22

Healed 1 bruised
