Friend or Foe - Temporary Alliance? (OOC)

[Cyroa]

This is the OOC Thread for Hellion and Stinger's meetings.

Stinger: let's start with a Notice roll.

[Cyroa]

Time for some inits

Hellion init (1d20+2=6)

Demon inits

inits (1d20+1=14)

[Elfy]

stinger's initiative (1d20+2=8)

[Cyroa]

Their claws do +5 damage fyi for your toughness roll.

[Elfy]

stinger rolled a critical on her blast attack. also, her attack has both autofire and penetrating.

[Cyroa]

Let's have a hearing roll:

Hellion

Notice (1d20+4=17)

[Elfy]

stinger notice check (1d20+5=20)

[Elfy]

just to clairify, stinger is in street clothes since she's not yet been approached by the headmistress of the shadow academy ; )

[Cyroa]

Ah, right-o!

[Elfy]

as far as i know, hellion doesn't have his demonic strength active at the moment, correct?

what is the correct way to 'grab' something out of someone's hand? make a successful melee attack followed by a successful, contested grapple check?

[Cyroa]

Well, given that we're not within arms reach of one another, I don't see that as likely

But as for the mechanics? I'd guess just an attack roll beating my defense? ('course, given I have a selective an on area attack, you're not keeping it if you do grab it )

[Elfy]

about how far away is he then? =)

[Cyroa]

I was thinking about 10 or 15' since she went to pick up the jewels/bag. Still not much but enough That and it will likely look like she's going for plan B ;)

[Elfy]

so, 10 feet then?

[Cyroa]

sure!

[Elfy]

first attack roll to snag the loot is an 11. if he has let his guard down (and is flat-footed), that'll hit his 11 defense, otherwise a hero point to re-roll. so i can post without waiting for verification, i'll go ahead and make the re-roll =)

[Elfy]

cyroa requested a ref save vs dc 16 in chat. failed by 2

[Cyroa]

0 level save (1d20=2, 1d20=12) for paper and cloth stuff... they don't make it ;)

[Elfy]

she's takes two move actions to increase the distance between them to (10+60=) 70 feet.

[Cyroa]

I failed the toughness (bad roll but not gonna use an HP ) so I'm 1 bruised.

I almost crit on the hit. And as his strength is so high and I rolled so well, you can't possible beat the grapple roll. I choose "pin" option. What that means is you are immobile for 1 full round. And until you break free, you have no dodge bonus and are at -4 to Defense. Breaking free is a grapple roll it seems.

I'm going mainly for pinning her arms/hands behind her so she can't blast him. But given the situation, I'm fine if you go for a kick or something...though he's still holding you.

[Cyroa]

as an ooc fyi, (to be fair) just thought I'd tell you so you don't call shenanigans. he's porting over to the local police station, dropping the goods off in a bag with a small note saying roughly where they were found. All anonymously. Then hopping over to pick up a few baubles, writing a note, and putting them in the same pocket. Then to the restaurant. No car Or rather, it's still a couple blocks away where he left it.

So unless she runs/moves faster than walking, he should get there about the same time she does. Otherwise, she'll beat him there.

Of course, if she decides to rabbit, we can call it here.

[Cyroa]

oh, in case it matters, he's got the Charisma going. (charisma 26 plus some good socials) Mainly to get her from being ticked and make sure he steers away from things that would piss her off/upset her

and yeah, I really don't intend to make her "give up her life of crime". Where would the fun of that be? Just laying the ground work for future stuff I suppose.

[Elfy]

i'm out of ideas as to what to do next ?=/

[Cyroa]

we could do a little wrap up if you like; couple of posts. wasn't sure if she was gonna try and fight or pick pocket to get the bag back.

Think it's a little to early in her arrival to do much else. But was a good setup for future stuff if we wanted

[Elfy]

no point in picking a fight. she might pickpocket him on a later occasion. you never know =3

sure. a wrap-up post sounds okie dokie =)
