Supercape Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 Im not entirely sure if initiative is needed at this moment.... 1d20+10=19 Heck, I am going to roll with the drama as this is the big problem with the barnacles! Barnacle and Engine explosion! This is a damage 10 area effect. DC 20 Reflex save to have a DC 20 Toughness, otherwise Toughness 25 save. Evasion counts as normal. If you need to make any type of save, the Barnacles hit you and will start to encrust on you, a contagious snare 5 effect (so Reflex 15 save) then, the water starts pouring in... HP to all for the horror, GM fiat over time stop (due to spooky magic) and lives at stake! Tsunami - 3 HP Glamazon - 3 HP Temperance - 4 HP Wave Eye - 1 HP Link to comment
Ari Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 ...That is pretty wrong a way for it to go. Sorry everybody! Link to comment
Brown Dynamite Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) Reflex Save: 1d20+4 18 Good but not good enough or her low Reflex Tou Save vs DC25: 1d20+10 16 Youch! Reflex Save vs Barnacles: 1d20+4 11 Edited July 26, 2014 by HG Morrison Link to comment
Thevshi Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 This is a little late (as you have already done so), but you know I am always down with overriding things for the purpose of plot. Not like it really matters, everyone else has pretty much ignored what Time Stop does anyway (ie the damage to the ship caused by us). Anyway, there is more than one way to stop the ship from sinking. Tsunami's Reflex save: 15, no don't like that, so I will use a HP to reroll: much better with a 25. She has evasion, so avoids the effects completely. You ready for us to roll initiative so we can act? Link to comment
Ari Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) DC20 Reflex save: 25. DC20 Toughness save: 21. EDIT: DC15 Reflex save to avoid the Barnacles:14. Entangled. Edited July 30, 2014 by Arichamus Link to comment
trollthumper Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 10 on the Reflex, which... I could do better. Hero Point.Yeah, that works. And as I have Evasion, I completely avoid the effect. Link to comment
Supercape Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 So for Reference: Glamazon - 3 HP - Dazed, Bruised, Entangled. Tsunami - 2 HP - Unharmed Tenmperance - 3 HP - Unharmed Wave Eye - 1 HP - Unharmed, Entangled. As for initiative, no need as Captain Blood is not going to fight you. So really take it turn by turn in whatever order you please! At the moment we have: Sammy Smooth is completely encrusted in the contagious barnacles. Glamazon and Wave-Eye are entangled by the contagious barnacles Cold Enviroinment (unlikely to matter) Partial Visual Obscure from smoke Ship with a big hole in it and wrecked engines... Anyone with knowledge (phyiscal sciences) can make an estimate of how long the ship will take to sink but its a DC 20 hit. Blah Blah Blah....plot physics....blah blah blah....plot naval engineering 1 Round till engine room flooded 5 Rounds till water fills the bottom half (including entertainment hall) 10 Rounds till ship underwater 5 minutes till it hits the sea bed!

Thevshi Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Tsunami will use her Create Object power to patch up the hole in the ship. Link to comment
Supercape Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 Excellent! Can we have an opposed roll Power 10 (The pressure of the ocean) vs Create Object? Link to comment
Thevshi Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Tsunami's power check is a 32. Link to comment
Supercape Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 The Power of the Ocean! 1d20+10=17 It holds...for now! Link to comment
trollthumper Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 If Temperance goes next, then she will use Blast w/ Autofire to try and knock the barnacles off of everyone. If they're close enough to one another to use the Cone function on Autofire, I'll try to hit everyone; if not, I'll hit Sammy first.24, 22, and... 9. Somehow, I doubt that 9 will hit Sammy's Snare, so let's see that the Blasts attack Wave-Eye and Glamazon's Snares. That way, there are more people to get Sammy free. Link to comment
Supercape Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 THat will certainly hit the first two! 1d20+5=11, 1d20+5=24 Its a Damage 9 effect, so the save is 24. Wave=-Eye is totally free, and Glamazon still entangled. Link to comment
Brown Dynamite Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) Alrighty, Glamazon will just take a moment to try and free herself using her STR+Super STR which was +13 altogether. Tou Save vs DC28 (Escape Attempt): 1d20+5 16 (Note in the link the end result is 39. That's because I accidentally put down 1D20+28 instead of +5. The result is still an 11 so no need to reroll unless you would like to roll for the snare yourself) Edited August 1, 2014 by HG Morrison Link to comment
Ari Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Awesome. Now that he's free, Wave-Eye will Move Over to Sammy and break the barnacles keeping him down. Power Attack Roll: 16. That should do it. DC25 Toughness save for the Barnacles. After that, moving off with Sammy to find the next weak spot in the ship. Link to comment
Supercape Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 For ease I am just gonna say the Barnacles are stripped off Sammy. At this point, where are y'all going? Link to comment
Ari Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 As soon as I post, to the next-most likely place for Captain Blood to try his sinkery tricks(which in this case would be 'forward of the engine room'). And asking Temperance and Glamazon along, since Tsunami seems to have things pretty well in hand in the engine room. Link to comment
Supercape Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 Well, I think you can all move faster than Captain Blood - although he has insubstantial. He is movng out to the open sea, rather than the ship. So feel free to post moving to some part of the deck! Link to comment
Supercape Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 Just a note: Off camera, as per Tsunamis suggestion, the passengers are assembling by the life boats and boarding. Not a quick process, of course, but happening! I didnt quite fancy posting that off camera, but if any heroes go on deck or fly about, ofeel free to narrate this! Link to comment
Ari Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Switching to the Move Object Power in the Device Array, and enacting a Power Check: 36. That is opposed by the Crimson Whatever's Strength score Link to comment
Supercape Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 The Black plunder has a STR of 55. I guess that, in terms of "bonus" is a + 9 Bonus (9 Ranks of Super Strength) 1d20+9=16 It is stopped! So, at this juncture, Blood is beating a retreat and serving up curses! The air is filled with its Osbcure 8 (visual) power and is sailing off... So, out of combat and I guess it is the beginning of wrap up for you folks, unless you have ideas to the contrary or fancy capturing the Black Plunder! Thoughts and Ideas here? including, if you wish, future thread thoughts / lead ups, and I suppose an underwater HQ or team? Link to comment
Brown Dynamite Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Hm. Clearly they'll want to go after the guy who sent Blood after the ship. Though they thus far just have a name to go on. So investigation an the like ~. In a way this thread did already start up as part of the idea of forming an unofficial unnamed underwater team. Glam could possibly use her affluence to help set up some sort of undersea safehouse so to speak. Link to comment
Ari Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Agreed, this Drowned Man sounds like an unfriendly customer, and worthy of further investigation. I say we let Captain Blood and his crew get away for now. He's hardly their archnemesis and they certainly aren't his. Maybe if there's a thread with Siren for the crew a bigger confrontation would be merited, but as-is the first adventure is not place for such things. Be like blowing up the Death Star in the first act. As for HQs, I'm leaving soon, so I can't really be part of that. I think an Atlantean watchtower near the coast, refurbished with the latest world-monitoring tech, might be radical. Link to comment
