Ace_Justice: abso-frannin-lutley
Igfig: Camera
Heronius_Napalm: Heronius!!
Ace_Justice: 1d20 for the power of dongs
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, for the power of dongs: [4] = 4
Igfig: Action!
Ace_Justice: dongs are weak today
Igfig: Last time, on Shetland Firestorm
Heronius_Napalm: You would know.
Ace_Justice: oh shit, hold on!
Brigsby: perfect timing
Ace_Justice: Need to bring this glass upstairs, continue though
Igfig: oh god the glass is downstairs!
Igfig: Quick, Waffle! For glasses verywhere, get it upstairs!
Igfig: Anyway
Ace_Justice: This is a big deal in my house
Igfig: The space pirates returned to the scene of the crime to loot the suffocated (or so they thought) crew of the dohwar vessel
Igfig: but were surprised to find your ship there too
Igfig: they sent some boarders to investigate
Igfig: and were even more surprised when you launched Holdr and Barvo at them out of ballistae
holdr: "Me and Barv- Oh hey, when did you get here hero?"
Heronius_Napalm: The battle ends, I pick up the loot.
Igfig: but you fired too soon, missed, and stranded them in space for a while
Heronius_Napalm: We have a system.
Igfig: then the battle, fighting lizardmen and getting rammed
Lucas_Strongbow: That sounds weird
holdr: "And jet packs!"
Ace_Justice: firing too soon seems to be happen a lot for us
Igfig: you eventually killed the pirates, although their air was depleted in the battle as well
Igfig: and now here you are.
Heronius_Napalm: Take everything they own!
Heronius_Napalm: even the air!
Ace_Justice: I agree!
Brigsby: How do we take the air?
Heronius_Napalm: Loot their hold and their bodies.
Heronius_Napalm: Magic.
Heronius_Napalm: obviously
Igfig: Well, normally you'd take their air just by overlapping air envelopes
Brigsby: okay, well, I help in the looting of their ship
Igfig: but since you were both in the asteroid's envelope, it got most of their air
holdr: Crap. I can't remember how Holdr is RP'd either
Heronius_Napalm: holdr is a dwarf who hits things
Brigsby: can we steal all of the asteroid's air?
Heronius_Napalm: imagine gimli
Heronius_Napalm: with more axes
Igfig: The ship doesn't have much on it to loot, since they were expecting to be picking up lots of treasure here
Brigsby: Yeah, Holdr is a dwarf, so you can't go wrong with "Scottish"
Heronius_Napalm: indeed
Igfig: but they have a number of roughly-made heavy catapults
Ace_Justice: RPing ace is easy, just not my head and stuff
Brigsby: We take them happily
Igfig: a number of weapons, although none are magical and thus they're hardly worth taking
Heronius_Napalm: I am sure many in our crew will love the catapults
Heronius_Napalm: take them for selling
Brigsby: doesn't mean we can't sell them to vendors later, let's take the weapons
Heronius_Napalm: we can get a pittance for them
Lucas_Strongbow: Do we have space for catapults? Also, we are running out of air
holdr: "Nye. Nay dwarf tossing"
Heronius_Napalm: and I can talk a pittance up to a trifle.
Igfig: there are 6 catapults, and each is worth about 360 gp base
Heronius_Napalm: Perfect.
Heronius_Napalm: We will need to find an enchanter.
Igfig: the weapons are probably worth less than that all taken together
Heronius_Napalm: I know a few.
Ace_Justice: Would it be possible to mix and mash the guns together to create one big gun/
Ace_Justice: ?
Heronius_Napalm: If we had an artificer
Slim_Bankshot: red
Brigsby: Let's just take the catapults then, three on front and three on the rear
Igfig: the catapults are nice in that they use Strength to aim instead of Dex, but you don't have much space on deck for any more weapons
Heronius_Napalm: We will come to a compromise
Heronius_Napalm: for now we will store them
Brigsby: Yeah, stuff 'em in the cargo hold
Heronius_Napalm: work on re-designing the ship when we find a safe harbour
Igfig: you have a bit of space on the forecastle, but you'd really want a turret there instead of something fixed
Igfig: they will fit in the hold, yes
Heronius_Napalm: We could put a catapult on a swivel until something better comes along.
Igfig: also, Ace, there are no guns
Igfig: these guys were evidently not very advanced
Igfig: Oh, also
Igfig: there is one more obvious valuable thing
Igfig: the spelljammer helm
Heronius_Napalm: oh?
Ace_Justice: *takes it*
Heronius_Napalm: Dibs
Heronius_Napalm: Mage hand it away from ace
Igfig: the big chair you sit in to make the ship go
Ace_Justice: Screw that
Igfig: it is large
Ace_Justice: I'm not letting go of this
Igfig: and you already have one
Heronius_Napalm: 1d20+14 arcana
Fortuna: Heronius_Napalm, arcana: [3] = 17
Heronius_Napalm: make a strength check
Brigsby: is there any special wiring or whatever that we can strip? This ship is just gonna crash on the asteroid or drift off into space, might as well just strip it of parts
Ace_Justice: 1d20+6
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, 1d20+6: [2] = 8
Ace_Justice: BULL SHIT
Heronius_Napalm: my helm now
Brigsby: what about its engines?
Ace_Justice: Dang
Igfig: it has no engines
Igfig: it steers with sails
Igfig: there are no wires
Heronius_Napalm: We will tow it to a safe zone
Heronius_Napalm: drain the air
Heronius_Napalm: then sink it
Igfig: uhh
Ace_Justice: We will need some sort of vaccum cleaner
Igfig: first of all
Lucas_Strongbow: It's already been drained of air, pretty much
Igfig: yeah, that
Heronius_Napalm: I know
Igfig: and second of all, how do you sink a spaceship
Heronius_Napalm: But we could at least increase our supply
Heronius_Napalm: you damage it enough
Brigsby: use the sails for target practice?
Yin quit.
Heronius_Napalm: that it succumbs to the vacuum of metaspace
Ace_Justice: Let's just take it apart for scraps
Heronius_Napalm: basically make it useless.
Lucas_Strongbow: Or, we get the hell out of here and go do something interesting
Heronius_Napalm: OR
Alek_Deckard joined #pwot_dnd.
Slim_Bankshot quit.
Heronius_Napalm: We could tow it to a planet and sell it.
Igfig: it would be quite difficult to suck the air out of a ship, even with vacuumy stuff
Ace_Justice: What about with magic
Brigsby: towing it would probably slow us down, and I dunno if we have enough air to make the trip slowed down like that
Ace_Justice: physically move the air over to our ship
Heronius_Napalm: we have their air too.
Ace_Justice: but it's all spread out
Heronius_Napalm: just hook up a pipe.
Brigsby: their air was spent in the fight, Ig said that
Heronius_Napalm: and we can breathe it.
Igfig: the thing is, the air on their ship is all mixed with carbon dioxide
Heronius_Napalm: Find a tree then
Igfig: in the same proportions as your own
Heronius_Napalm: and a druid
Igfig: yes, finding a tree would be a good idea
Igfig: unfortunately you have a bit more than a day's worth of air
Brigsby: don't we have a druid?
Heronius_Napalm: is anyone a plant creature of some sort?
Ace_Justice: My other character is a druid
Ace_Justice: So not much we can do there
Brigsby: do any of us have powers that create plant things?
Igfig: it's unlikely that you could make enough permanent plant things to make a difference in the space of a single day
Brigsby: Lucas, don't you have a power that makes a few squares of difficult terrain with plants or something?
Lucas_Strongbow: Roots
Lucas_Strongbow: Not quite the same
Heronius_Napalm: they only fix nitrogen
Brigsby: crap
Heronius_Napalm: and phosphorous
Brigsby: No leaves then
Lucas_Strongbow: How about we drive to the place that the penguin duded told us about?
Brigsby: let's do that
Heronius_Napalm: what place?
Heronius_Napalm: don't bring them out to ask either.
Lucas_Strongbow: Said he knew a place within travelling distance
Alek_Deckard: Or did we find a map or some coordinates inside the pirate ship?  Possibly for their base?  Which would likely have air?
Lucas_Strongbow: Where we'd get a reward
Alek_Deckard: And all the pirate loot too.
Igfig: Good thought, Alek.  Anyone want to have a look around?
Heronius_Napalm: Who is good at percieveing things?
Lucas_Strongbow: Yo
Heronius_Napalm: search about then
Ace_Justice: for what/
Ace_Justice: ?
Lucas_Strongbow: SEARCH MODE ENGAGED
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+12
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, 1d20+12: [4] = 16
Ace_Justice: We are getting some bad rolls
Brigsby: description bonus, Lucas
Igfig: Luckily they keep their maps in obvious places
Alek_Deckard: For something to figure out where the pirates keep all their stuff, if they don't have loot on the ship, they must keep it somewhere, likely with air.
Ace_Justice: mmkay
Lucas_Strongbow: I toss the pirate ship, flipping through books and chests, rifling through pockets, emptying drawers
Lucas_Strongbow: I have the look of a man who is desperately late for work, and can't find his keys
Igfig: (you already succeeded on that roll)
Lucas_Strongbow: I know, this is just fluff
Igfig: k
Brigsby: we all need to get into the habit of describing rolls anyway
Brigsby: it's better for RP
Lucas_Strongbow: Yeah
Igfig: and they do, in fact, have some star charts that provide directions back to their base
Igfig: that is true brigsby
Heronius_Napalm: yeah, pirate base raid!
Lucas_Strongbow: "Guys, I found something. Some sort of map."
Heronius_Napalm: "Where does it lead?:
Igfig: their base appears to be an unexceptional point in deep space
holdr: "Aye. Leet us invaide thee pairates
Brigsby: I vote that Heronius stays on the ship, because if we raid that base there's a 98% chance that he'll try to become King of the Pirates
Igfig: about half a day's travel away
Alek_Deckard: "Plus in raiding their stores we end their threat in the area."
Heronius_Napalm: If heronius is forced to remain on the ship, it will not be there when you get back.
Heronius_Napalm: also the base will be on fire.
Brigsby: that is also true
Igfig: Oh no, not king of the pirates.  He'll try to set up an intramural lacrosse team!
Heronius_Napalm: He would
Heronius_Napalm: I love gambling on lacrosse
Brigsby: The more Archer references we make, the more I love everyting
Ace_Justice: Good god no!
Igfig: Okay
Igfig: Pirate base raid?
Lucas_Strongbow: You just reminded me, I need to watch the third part of that bunch of episodes
Heronius_Napalm: Pirate Base Raid!
Brigsby: Pirate base raid.
Ace_Justice: I haven't watched archer in forever
Heronius_Napalm: with EXPLODE TURNIPS!
Igfig: Anything we need to do before we go?  Any plans to make?
Ace_Justice: what about the penguins in the closeT?
Igfig: They appear to be asleep
Brigsby: the Pirate Base episodes made me very happy because they made a goddamn ANTHROPOLOGY joke. which is my major
Ace_Justice: Oh my
Igfig: nestled in eachother's down
Ace_Justice: Are they dead?
Igfig: Heal check?
Alek_Deckard: I don't think they'd know anything about the base, and the only things we know about the pirates are they are lizards.
Lucas_Strongbow: extended rest on the way seems like a good idea
Ace_Justice: 1d20+9 heal
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, heal: [12] = 21
Brigsby: well, should we make a gameplan for the attack?
Igfig: yeah, they're just asleep
Ace_Justice: Then maybe we should wake them up
Ace_Justice: Take them with us
Slim_Bankshot joined #pwot_dnd.
Igfig: Extended rest is a good idea, yeah
Brigsby: we definitely need to load all the catapults
Slim_Bankshot: I got dropped
Slim_Bankshot: Odd
Slim_Bankshot: red
Igfig: You can make repairs to your ship during the extended rest, too
Lucas_Strongbow: We can't make a gameplan when we don't know what we're up against
holdr: Don't we have limited air though?
Alek_Deckard: Maybe try and sneak in using their ship, do we have enough arcane users to drive both boats?
Igfig: although why are you loading catapults in your hold?
Brigsby: also true
Brigsby: I mean just load the catapults on deck
Ace_Justice: So we can fire them at people
Ace_Justice: duh
Heronius_Napalm: okay, extended rest.
Brigsby: the ones we're going to use
Heronius_Napalm: Barvo is going to be ready for smashin
Alek_Deckard: We could pretend to be taking our own ship in.
Igfig: you would need to remove your ballistae to do that
Igfig: to fit the catapults, I mean
Igfig: and your ballistae are higher quality than their catapults
Brigsby: you know what I meant
Igfig: Not really, no
Brigsby: let's load the weapons(ballistae, laser cannons) that we have on our deck, so they'll be ready to fire if shit goes down
Brigsby: load as in load ammo into them
Heronius_Napalm: right.
Heronius_Napalm: no barbarians this time.
Heronius_Napalm: for the moment.
Igfig: ah ok
Heronius_Napalm: extended rest on the way there.
Igfig: all right
Heronius_Napalm: hold orbit beyond sensor range
Igfig: yes
Lucas_Strongbow: I nap at the wheel
holdr: HOldr Coughs
Alek_Deckard prays to Pelor.
Heronius_Napalm: which is a bit farther than their guys can see.
Igfig: the pirate ship has no real sensors beyond a communicator
Slim_Bankshot: OK, so, since I got dropped, I'm not sure where we are.
Igfig: mostly it's a matter of telescopes
Alek_Deckard: We're on our extended rest on the way to the pirate base.
Brigsby: does this mean we can all dress as pirates?
Heronius_Napalm: no
Ace_Justice: Damn
Igfig: "Out of sight range" is thousands of miles away
Igfig: but yeah
Igfig: You can spend one of your four repair surges during the rest to get your ship back to full hit points
Heronius_Napalm: okai
Igfig: (since you only took a bit of damage)
Brigsby: do we have a way to recharge shields?
Igfig: Yeah, you can do that automatically during the rest
Igfig: basically you just make a bunch of skill checks and get Poen to use some healing powers
Igfig: Anyway, you drop out of the phlogiston about ten thousand miles from your destination
Brigsby: what is the phlogiston
Igfig: it's what space looks like when you're travelling at superluminal speeds
Igfig: basically, fire everywhere
Slim_Bankshot: Wait, is Poen here?
Brigsby: so like Star Wars, but not blue, gotcha
Brigsby: Poen the character is here, the player isn't
Igfig: if you use fire spells in the phlogiston, the spell explodes
Ace_Justice: Hell yes
Ace_Justice: let's fire shit up
Alek_Deckard: Like good explode, or bad explode?
Ace_Justice: is there a bad explode?
Brigsby: I imagine bad explode
Igfig: if you fall out of a ship in the phlogiston, you're preserved in stasis pretty much forever until you ram into a star or something
Alek_Deckard: Backfire explode, or flinging a fireball explode.
Igfig: backfire explode, yes
Ace_Justice: oh my
Igfig: there are a few other weird things about the phlogiston that I don't remember offhand
Heronius_Napalm: good plan
Heronius_Napalm: for going out in a blaze of glory
Igfig: but basically it's like hyperspace except it's still technically realspace
Brigsby: It's hyperspace but fire
Igfig: the spelljammer is more of a warp drive than a hyperdrive
Igfig: anyway
Igfig: What's the game plan?
Igfig: Using the enemy ship for deceit?
Ace_Justice: Errrmmm
Igfig: Sneaking in?
Ace_Justice: good question
Igfig: Charging?
Igfig: in
Brigsby: let's try to sneak, and charge if that goes badly
Ace_Justice: Charge?
Ace_Justice: Fine
Heronius_Napalm: sneaky people hands up.
Ace_Justice: Maybe we can use a sneaking person to open the way for the rest of us
Brigsby: does +6 qualify me for sneaky?
Igfig: It's mildly sneaky
Lucas_Strongbow: I am also +6
Alek_Deckard: I've got 11.
Brigsby: I half-heartedly put my hand up
Ace_Justice: I have 4...
Lucas_Strongbow: me and Brigsby are all "ehhhh..."
Brigsby: if only Adam wasn't being an awesome assassin dude on Eberron
Igfig: Note that we're talking about your entire ship here, not you individually
Igfig: although I suppose you could try that too
Igfig: well, actually not really
Alek_Deckard: I think bluff would be more important for using the previously owned by the pirates ship for whatever it is we're doing.
Brigsby: how do we go about sneaking the ship in? That seems more along the lines of Bluff
Brigsby: which I also have +6 in
Ace_Justice: I have +1 bluff
Ace_Justice: I can do this
Igfig: I'd imagine something like black camouflage
Heronius_Napalm: I can do diplomacy
Brigsby: me too
Igfig: but yes, bluff would also work
Igfig: in its own way
Alek_Deckard: What if we pretend to tow our ship in with their ship?  And then once we're in start firing the weapons on both ships at everything?
Igfig: pretty much anythign could work in theory
Igfig: that could work too
Lucas_Strongbow: I'd rather get into a normal fight than a ship fight
Brigsby: I could stand on the front railing of the ship and sing a lullaby to put all the pirates to sleep
Ace_Justice: We can try that
Igfig: A normal fight will probably be difficult to do without getting very close
Heronius_Napalm: We just need to toss holdr and barvo in
Brigsby: we tried that last time
Heronius_Napalm: then let things take their proper course
Ace_Justice: Maybe we can just ram this pirate ship into them
Heronius_Napalm: and many people died.
Heronius_Napalm: very quickly
Ace_Justice: Smash through the wall and storm them before they even realize what is going on
Brigsby: after Holdr and Barvo drifted through space for a while
Heronius_Napalm: yeah
Heronius_Napalm: then Barvo Triple killed to make up for lost time.
Lucas_Strongbow: How does our ship compare to theirs? In terms of strength and numbers
Alek_Deckard: Here's a question, assuming their base is larger then our ships, can we see it from here at all?
holdr: "There'll be no dwarf tossing on my watch!"
Igfig: firing people out of ballistae has a range of about two shipboard squares, or 200 feet
Ace_Justice: Let's do that
Igfig: your ships are pretty equal
Igfig: you can't see their base from here except as a tiny speck through a telescope
Lucas_Strongbow: I think we can get closer without being seen
Lucas_Strongbow: Space is big
Igfig: but you could certainly get at least somewhat closer
Igfig: yeah
Lucas_Strongbow: We know what we're looking for, they don't
Igfig: Okay.  Let's get an Arcana check from whoever's at the helm, to get the distance just right
Igfig: and a Stealth check too
Heronius_Napalm: 1d20+14
Fortuna: Heronius_Napalm, 1d20+14: [8] = 22
Heronius_Napalm: who does the stealth?
Igfig: probably you, unless someone has an idea about how to make the ship more stealthy
Heronius_Napalm: Lucas?
Lucas_Strongbow: Hmm...
Igfig: it's not really a piloting matter
Ace_Justice: Turn off all the lights
Ace_Justice: space is a dark place
Igfig: Actually, I think it'll be Hero who makes the check
Brigsby: if we're in space, could we come at them from a different angle? We have more options than "head on"
holdr: Feel free to scream as well
Heronius_Napalm: oh my
Ace_Justice: Let's rise up from underneath them
Alek_Deckard: We don't know which direction is head on for the base though, we could be approaching it from the bottom right now for all we know.
Heronius_Napalm: 1d20+4
Fortuna: Heronius_Napalm, 1d20+4: [16] = 20
Igfig: but good Stealth checks from somebody taking stealthing measures can give some bonuses
Lucas_Strongbow: Turn off the lights, come in slow to reduce engine burn, and come from a weird angle
Lucas_Strongbow: Oh, everyone suggested all of that already
Igfig: Well, that check was pretty good anyway
Heronius_Napalm: bam
Heronius_Napalm: heronius.
Igfig: From this distance, you have a pretty good view of the base
Igfig: feel free to scroll around to take it all in
Lucas_Strongbow: What the fuck
Lucas_Strongbow: it's...aloe vera?
Igfig: Apparently!
Lucas_Strongbow: So it's organic in construction?
Slim_Bankshot: DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT, PUNK?!
Brigsby: plant pirates
Ace_Justice: it's a plant
Igfig: Each hex is 100 feet, by the way
Igfig: yes, it's quite organic
Alek_Deckard: That certainly explains where they get their oxygen, they live on a giant plant.
Aryanni: That is a huge ass aloe vera!
Heronius_Napalm: Let's head for the yellow bits.
Igfig: you understand now how they can afford to be so wasteful with their air
Heronius_Napalm: Also, we can steal their oxygen.
Heronius_Napalm: Also also, I am allergic to aloe vera.
Igfig: Also, perception
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+12
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, 1d20+12: [20] = 32
Ace_Justice: woop
Igfig: passive perception I guess... oh
Igfig: welp
Slim_Bankshot: You see everything ever
Lucas_Strongbow: Eagle eye Lucas over here
Alek_Deckard: Again.
Ace_Justice: He sees into infinity
Lucas_Strongbow: I can see through time
holdr: "I CAN SEE INTO FOREVER" ~Lucas Strongbow
Slim_Bankshot: He can tell you how many hairs are on a flies foot
Igfig: Through your telescope, you can see two small vessels buzzing around the base occasionally
Heronius_Napalm: This seems like a timing issue.
Heronius_Napalm: Also, what have we done with the pirate ship?
Heronius_Napalm: I have an idea.
holdr: "Stab them with our swords?"
Igfig: You can also see that most of the activity is around the thickest nodes of the plants, where the leaves come together, and the flowers.
holdr: "Or my spear I guess."
Igfig: I don't know what you've done with the pirate ship.
Heronius_Napalm: Alright
Heronius_Napalm: I want to set that things engines at full blast and cut it loose.
Heronius_Napalm: aimed at the base.
Ace_Justice: told you guys
Igfig: Uh
Igfig: engines?
Heronius_Napalm: we need a distraction for us.
Brigsby: so we're charging?
Heronius_Napalm: right.
Heronius_Napalm: sails
Heronius_Napalm: whatever
Lucas_Strongbow: Sails do not work that way
Heronius_Napalm: set it on a collision course
Brigsby: Oh, pirate ship as distractions
Igfig: The spelljammer helm is the main propulsion
Igfig: the sails are just for steering
Alek_Deckard: Don't we need someone sitting on its helm to power it?
Heronius_Napalm: perfect
Igfig: and yes, that's the thing
Lucas_Strongbow: Who wants to go on a suicide mission?
Heronius_Napalm: I can set up a spell to power it
Heronius_Napalm: I will summon my magma beast.
Heronius_Napalm: and his essence will power the helm
Igfig: oh, that's a clever idea
Heronius_Napalm: I am clever as fuck over here.
Igfig: Can your magma beast cast spells or anything?
Heronius_Napalm: hmm
Igfig: do anything that's not just pure melee
Igfig: actually, I guess it /is/ magic
Igfig: so that's okay
Heronius_Napalm: yeah
Heronius_Napalm: it is living magma
Heronius_Napalm: made of magic
Heronius_Napalm: That was the idea
Igfig: also I am going to steal that idea later for guided missiles
Heronius_Napalm: sure thing.
Igfig: so it is in my interest to allow this
Brigsby: balls
Igfig: but make an Arcana check
Heronius_Napalm: 1d20+14
Fortuna: Heronius_Napalm, 1d20+14: [10] = 24
Alek_Deckard: I hope we get the guided missiles.
Igfig: you may want the other casters to help you...
Igfig: oh
Igfig: yeah, that works
Heronius_Napalm: damn rights
Heronius_Napalm: I am Heronius Fucking Napalm
Heronius_Napalm: the Sixtennth
Heronius_Napalm: word.
Ace_Justice: So
Ace_Justice: let's do that then
Heronius_Napalm: It is done.
Igfig: The pirate ship starts to move
Lucas_Strongbow: I symbolically smash a bottle against the stern
Igfig: as the magma beast settles into the spelljammer helm
Lucas_Strongbow: Also, if anyone ever draws this, have the magma beast salute, and Hero wipe away a tear
Igfig: The wood of the ship begins to blacken and catch fire from the beast's heat
Heronius_Napalm: You realize that Hero is the one who does the drawing.
Igfig: yep
Heronius_Napalm: and something may come of this
Heronius_Napalm: never know.
Lucas_Strongbow: Well, draw that shit then
Igfig: and as the ship starts to accelerate, the fire spreads across the deck
Igfig: running up the sails, down the ram
Igfig: Are you guys following close behind, or waiting for it to arrive before you start moving?
Heronius_Napalm: Bit of both
Igfig: okay
Ace_Justice: We should follow close behind
Heronius_Napalm: we wait till we are sure they notice it
Ace_Justice: storm once it hits
Heronius_Napalm: then go
Brigsby: I thought we were going dark?
Ace_Justice: maybe we should come from the opposite direction?
Brigsby: and when it hits, we can charge full blast
Ace_Justice: While they're focused on that, we hit them from the back
Igfig: sure
Heronius_Napalm: yeah
Igfig: And as the ship reaches cruising speed
Igfig: and the phlogiston begins to gather
Alek_Deckard: Uh oh.
Heronius_Napalm: Hee hee
Ace_Justice: shit
Heronius_Napalm: I will enjoy this.
Igfig: the ship begins to detonate piece by piece
Slim_Bankshot: What is a phlogiston?
Igfig: small explosions at first
Alek_Deckard: Hyper drive.
Alek_Deckard: Sorta.
Lucas_Strongbow: You know what sucks? Living plant doesn't burn.
Igfig: but the faster it goes, the bigger they get
Slim_Bankshot: Sure it burns. Just not as well.
Ace_Justice: Then let's just send hero in alone
Ace_Justice: we know how he loves his fire
Igfig: and a cloud of shrapnel and wreckage begins to collect around the flaming death-meteor
Heronius_Napalm: Hahaha
Heronius_Napalm: I am enjoying the spectacle
Ace_Justice: Jesus it's like we just made a meteor shower
Heronius_Napalm: Heronius Napalm does not fuck around.
Igfig: it's not long before the pirates at the base start to notice
Lucas_Strongbow: That magma beast had better say "I'm back!" before impact
Ace_Justice: or
Heronius_Napalm: In primordial.
Ace_Justice: Jeronimo, or however you spell that
Ace_Justice: no wait
Ace_Justice: "I'd like to see your FIRE PERMIT"
Igfig: activity starts to increase around the flowers, it looks like
Slim_Bankshot: Numerous bodies seem to be assembling something
Igfig: a gleaming something begins to coalesce around the flowers
Ace_Justice: Oh shit, they're using solar beam
Heronius_Napalm: I wonder how that will end.
Heronius_Napalm: hmm
Igfig: no, more of a force field perhaps
Heronius_Napalm: Get in there
Slim_Bankshot: Counter with mirror move
Heronius_Napalm: quick
Igfig: the rest of the plant is not surrounded by the field
Slim_Bankshot: Or better yet, firespin
Alek_Deckard: Ah darn, the ship would be fine if it was solar beam, fire types are resistant to grass.
Lucas_Strongbow: It's not very effective...
Igfig: although the leaves do begin to move and sway
Slim_Bankshot: Rhythmically
Ace_Justice: Razer Leaf?
Alek_Deckard: Ah right, lizardmen, druids and shamans abound.
Igfig: the smaller ships, which you can now see to look something like stylized wasps
Alek_Deckard: MOstly shamans I suppose.
Igfig: begin to fire at the great onrushing squid explosion
Ace_Justice: Squid Explosions
Igfig: (the big pirate ship was vaguely squidlike)
Ace_Justice: huh
Ace_Justice: oh
Lucas_Strongbow: I think we're ever so slightly outmatched here
wasps 4PEW PEW!
Heronius_Napalm: Sneak in
Igfig: but their catapults are not very effective
Heronius_Napalm: now while they are distracted
Ace_Justice: yeah let's go now
Alek_Deckard: Which part will we go in towards?
Alek_Deckard: Start at the bottom and work up?j
Igfig: the ship impacts in the center of the aloe
wasps 4buzzzz PEW!
Ace_Justice: the opposite side of the explosion
Igfig: if the magma beast said anything, it was too far away foe you to hear
Igfig: *for
Igfig: but you like ti think it did
Igfig: *to
Ace_Justice: He said "I'm afraid you're going to have to face the firing squad"
Igfig: *sunglasses*
Lucas_Strongbow: I am the god of hellfire, and I bring you...
Igfig: the final phlogiston-fueled explosion
Igfig: a raging, compound, multi-stage spectacle of pyrotechnic skill that would make any municipal fireworks department hire you on the spot
wasps:  1d20
Fortuna: wasps,  1d20: [8] = 8
holdr falls alseep
Heronius_Napalm: Weestsiiidde!
Heronius_Napalm: *ahem
wasps 4hear holdr snoring
Igfig: although ti does not start any fires
Ace_Justice: hold on, need to do secret santa stuff
Heronius_Napalm: brb
Igfig: does blow a beautiful series of gaping holes all through the midsection of the aloe
Igfig: it writhes as if in pain
wasps: Is it hollow? Do the pirates live inside?
Ace_Justice: alright back
Igfig: Parts of it, yes
Ace_Justice: would it be possible to chop off the stems?
Igfig: although it looks like many of them are up in the flowers or the Wasps
wasps: I imagine embroidered pathes that say 'aloe sweet aloe'
Igfig: that might be posible, yes
wasps: *patches
Ace_Justice: We should try that
Ace_Justice: cut off the stems and send them scattering across space
Igfig: blackened bits of plant matter the size of small dragons tumble outward on the shockwave
wasps: one nearly hits a wasp
Igfig: and into it all, comes your dear nameless ship
Igfig: Let's roll initiative
Ace_Justice: 1d20+4 Ace Justice Init
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, Ace Justice Init: [9] = 13
Heronius_Napalm: Barvo Explodes out of Hero with a roar
Alek_Deckard: 1d20+6
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard, 1d20+6: [2] = 8
Igfig: I guess the explosion was near the bottom, so you're coming in from the top?
Heronius_Napalm: 1d20+2
Fortuna: Heronius_Napalm, 1d20+2: [11] = 13
Brigsby: 1d20+6
Fortuna: Brigsby, 1d20+6: [17] = 23
Aryanni: 1d20+2
Fortuna: Aryanni, 1d20+2: [10] = 12
Igfig: Ace, remember that you're managing the initiative now
Ace_Justice: I know
Ace_Justice: I'm doing that now
Igfig: excellent
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+8
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, 1d20+8: [5] = 13
holdr: 1d20+2
Fortuna: holdr, 1d20+2: [14] = 16
holdr: Uh. That's a 17
holdr: I have a +3
wasps: If anybody else touches the map I will gut them like a fish
Igfig: Slim, go ahead and roll for the wasps
Ace_Justice: anyone else?
Ace_Justice: ermm
Ace_Justice: where is the battle taking place
Ace_Justice: on foot or in the ship
Ace_Justice: bam
wasps:  1d20+2
Fortuna: wasps,  1d20+2: [20] = 22
Ace_Justice: mapped up like a mother fucker
Ace_Justice: oh shit
Ace_Justice: hmm
wasps: Well shit
Ace_Justice: igfig does that go first?
Ace_Justice: or second?
Ace_Justice: Case brigs has 23
Heronius_Napalm: I think that's second
Ace_Justice: cause*
Alek_Deckard: Second with a surprise round ahead of everyone else.
Heronius_Napalm: but they get a surprise- yeah
Ace_Justice: okay
Barvo: Wargghhh!!
Ace_Justice: "RRRRR"
Ace_Justice: no wait he can't make r's either
holdr: "Barvo, Ye be back!"
Ace_Justice: umm
Ace_Justice: "GGGGGGG"
Lucas_Strongbow: Can't make G's either
Ace_Justice: shit you're right
Ace_Justice: umm
Barvo: Holdr!!
Lucas_Strongbow: MMMMM
Ace_Justice: "HHHHHHH"
Ace_Justice: "HHHMMMMMMM"
Ace_Justice: He is angrily contemplating
Ace_Justice: Ace needs to get some form of telepathy
Barvo: We shall destroy many an enemy this day!
holdr: "Aye."
Igfig: Also Ace, put a "W" at initiative 0 on the list
Frogbone joined #pwot_dnd.
Igfig: or not a w actually
Igfig: uh, an F
Ace_Justice: ?
Igfig: there's a thing that you will see when it happens
Igfig: thanks
Igfig: okay
Igfig: Is anyone still unrecorded?
Igfig: init-wise?
wasps: Frogbone may be getting here in time to see something interesting happen
Barvo: Mine is there
Barvo: just change heronius to barvo
Barvo: for clarity
Ace_Justice: okay
Alek_Deckard: Hey where is mine?
Igfig: I don't see an Alek
Igfig: yeah
Ace_Justice: done
Alek_Deckard: I rolled an 8 right after you rolled for Ace.
Igfig: Aright
Ace_Justice: He's added
Igfig: Brigsby turn!
Igfig: Holdr on deck
Ace_Justice: where are we on the map
Igfig: wherever you want to be I guess
Brigsby: am I first?
Igfig: Hero, where are you guys on that map?
Igfig: yeah, it look slike you are brigsby
Ace_Justice: ig
Barvo: Uh
Ace_Justice: Wasps go first
Brigsby: I kinda zoned out, what's happening right now?
Ace_Justice: they got a surprise round
Barvo: Close enough to hit something.
Alek_Deckard: Wasp surprise round.
wasps: Should probably just add, like, a rectangle to show the ship
Igfig: just a big S or something
wasps: I need to know where I am shooting
Igfig: The wasps don't do anything, since they're surprised
Ace_Justice: oh okay then
wasps: Oh. OK
Igfig: this is why you all did the big ambush thing
wasps 4buzz in place
Igfig: so somebody place the ship
Brigsby: Hero, you're the pilot I guess
Igfig: and then Brigsby do something
Brigsby: place that ship
Ace_Justice: it is placed
Ace_Justice: in the explosion
Barvo: Hero is gone.
Brigsby: oh
Brigsby: okay, well where's the entrance to the base? We're doing this for treasure right?
Alek_Deckard: Treasure and air.
Barvo: you could technically drive the ship.
Ace_Justice: oh I thought we were just randomly attacking
Barvo: Yes, drive us inside that thing
Alek_Deckard: And general destruction of pirates.
Barvo: We get equalized air from it.
wasps: Yeah, the air is kinda important
Brigsby: Let's make this a guerrilla attack for the air and booty 
Igfig: The most important areas look to be up in the flowers
Brigsby: I'll pilot the ship into the dock or whatever
wasps: For that reason, you may want to keep the plant alive for a bit
Ace_Justice: damn
Igfig: there is something or other in the knottiest areas
Igfig: but those areas are kind of on fire
Ace_Justice: oh yeah
wasps: Told you live plants could burn.
Igfig: with enough intense application of heat, apparently so
Igfig: also, lots of oxygen
Ace_Justice: wait doesn't that means it is burning the oxygen we came for?
Igfig: Let's make you guys a different colour
Igfig: some of it, yes
Brigsby: So I look around to see if I can see a usable entrance to the plant-base, do I see anything?
Alek_Deckard: I'm sure there is plenty left.
Alek_Deckard: It is a really big plant.
Igfig: Yes... oh wait
Brigsby: anything in the immediate area, at least
Igfig: now that you're in the air envelope, you can hear something
Alek_Deckard: Stuff burning?
Brigsby: screams and stuff
Igfig: no, not quite
Ace_Justice: the screams of the damned
Igfig: it seems to be coming from the flowers
Barvo: considering the plant is like 1600 feet tall, we have got some time.
Igfig: and it sounds like
holdr: Girls
Igfig: oh shit, where's the video
holdr: millions upon millions of girls
wasps: Hippie flower children
Igfig: SLim, do you remember where thatYoutube video we had was?
wasps: I can find it right quick
Lucas_Strongbow: Immersion shattered
Igfig: sorry
Barvo: does it sound like vuvuzelas?
Lucas_Strongbow: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSS
wasps: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5Cg3J8q9i8
Igfig: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5Cg3J8q9i8
wasps: Both of those at once
Ace_Justice: this is the perfect song for the situation
Igfig: amazingly, our choice of song is coincidence
Igfig: but it looks like up inside of the flowers
Igfig: there are a bunch of lizardmen with steel drums and other such instruments
holdr: GAH
Alek_Deckard: Damn pirates.
Igfig: playing their hearts out
Fortuna: Say please.
holdr: BULLCRAP. YOU DID NOT CRASH ADOBE
Brigsby: how much is a bunch
Igfig: about one calypso band
Ace_Justice: They're like the band on the Titanic
Igfig: and it appears they have something to do with this force field around the flower
Brigsby: So that's the entrance?
wasps: They are probably wearing floral pattern shirts
Ace_Justice: Sounds like the power of rock
Igfig: and also the flailing leaves
Igfig: it looks like that would be your ideal entrance, too
Igfig: so yeah
Barvo: They are music mages~!
Alek_Deckard: Jammin shaman?
Igfig: quite possibly
Igfig: Also, some things to know while you're in the aloe leaves
Brigsby: so let's bust in there and show 'em how to rock?
Igfig: this area is difficult terrain for vehicles
Ace_Justice: oh man
Ace_Justice: I sense
Igfig: That sounds like a good idea!
Ace_Justice: a battle of the bands
Brigsby: LET'S DO IT
wasps: They are jammin' hard, mon
Ace_Justice: HELL YEAH
Ace_Justice: Ace can sing
Brigsby: I man the helm and pilot to wherever it was Igfig said
Brigsby: that's an Arcana check, right?
Barvo: Barvo was on the mens choir in his old tribe.
Ace_Justice: Ace is a well accomplished singer, he has a gold album
Igfig: You're piloting?  Yeah, Arcana check to helm it, and Acrobatics from the pilot
Igfig: although you can do your music from any point int he same air envelope
Ace_Justice: Let's rock our way into their shield
Lucas_Strongbow: Should I do acrobatics then?
Igfig: Yeah
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+13
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, 1d20+13: [15] = 28
Ace_Justice: maybe we can turn our ballistaes into guitar strings
Brigsby: 1d20+7 Arcana
Fortuna: Brigsby, Arcana: [10] = 17
Lucas_Strongbow: Oh wait, BOON
Lucas_Strongbow: That's 29
Igfig: Oh, and you see the more greenish hexes in the middle of the aloe?
Igfig: Those areas have a profusion of small, fast-moving leaves
Igfig: they look dangerous, in a different way from the large, slow ones
Alek_Deckard: So avoid the hexes that want to kill us then.
Igfig: Incidentally, Lucas, you manage to maneuver the ship around the large flailing leaves with great skill, avoiding them all
Igfig: here is a secret: every hex on this map wants to kill you
Igfig: some just more than others
Ace_Justice: shit
Igfig: anyway!
Igfig: Go ahead and move that ship!
Igfig: Remember, difficult terrain.
Brigsby: okay, where was that entrance?
Brigsby: the white, right? And where are those green hexes?
Alek_Deckard: Inside the force field by the flower thing.
Igfig: The green hexes are in the middle of the aloe--I should have made them brighter
Igfig: I have a pointer on them
Brigsby: Okay, I see them
Brigsby: and everything else is difficult terrain?
Ace_Justice: those green ones want to kill us/
Ace_Justice: ?
Igfig: everything else in the aloe, yeah
Ace_Justice: awesome
Igfig: also there's fire in some places
Brigsby: the fire is the red circles I'm guessing
Igfig: you can probably guess that those areas will kill you too
Igfig: yes
Ace_Justice: who's turn is it
Igfig: It i still Brigsby's actually
Igfig: there was a lot of info dump going on
Igfig: Heh, it's actually pretty handy that Brigsby's a singer
Ace_Justice: Are you saying Ace can't sing?
Brigsby: and the move action for the ship is 6, so difficult terrain everywhere on aloe
Igfig: he can sing and helm the ship at the same time
Ace_Justice: oh
Brigsby: so that's three hexes
Igfig: aright
Brigsby: anything else I can do? I moved the ship and whatnot
Igfig: well, you can always do stunts, for one
Ace_Justice: do a backflip
Brigsby: I forgot what those do
holdr: DO A BARREL ROLL
Igfig: you make a skill check to do something beyond the norm
Ace_Justice: NO GOD DAMMIT
Ace_Justice: I WAS TRYING TO AVOID THAT MEME
Igfig: such as moving faster than usual
Brigsby: I'll try that, I'm guessing arcana?
Alek_Deckard: Draw hand please.
Igfig: You can also use a standard action to do music stuff
Igfig: Yep, arcana
Alek_Deckard: Mulligan please.
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard drew a new hand.
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard drew CRAFTY STRIKE (U)
Fortuna: Play when your at-will or encounter attack power hits an enemy granting you combat advantage. You gain a +4 bonus to the power's damage roll against the enemy.
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard drew MIGHT MAKES RIGHT (U)
Fortuna: Play when you make an intimidate or diplomacy check. You gain a bonus to the check equal to the number of unbloodied allies adjacent to you.
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard drew MEASURED CUT (R)
Fortuna: Play at the start of your turn. Once during your turn, you can take a minor action to gain a +2 to your next attack roll.
Igfig: I'll also let you use Might Makes Right on a Perform check
Igfig: it makes sense to me
Brigsby: I focus more of my arcane energy into the helm, trying to squeeze every last bit of power out
Brigsby: 1d20+7 arcana
Fortuna: Brigsby, arcana: [7] = 14
Igfig: A good description is worth +2
Igfig: that's a total of 16, enough for an extra hex of movement
Brigsby: awesome
Igfig: (Really great descriptions and secondary checks can increase those bonuses further)
Igfig: anything with your standard action, then?
Brigsby: All the guns are operated by everyone else, right?
Igfig: yeah
Brigsby: I guess that's my turn then
Igfig: No music?  Ok.
Brigsby: I'm too focused on trying to pilot this thing that I've never driven to sing right now
Igfig: aright
Igfig: Holdr!
holdr: ALRIGHT
holdr: I don't think there's anything I can stab
Igfig: nope
Igfig: Can you music?
holdr: AND- OH SCREW YOU ADOBE. I have to restart firefox. 
holdr: I'll just do nothing
holdr: I suppose
holdr: Be right back
Barvo: holdr holds
Igfig: we'll let you delay til' you're back
holdr quit.
Igfig: Lucas!
Lucas_Strongbow: I assume there's nothing to do combat wise
Lucas_Strongbow: So, therefore, it's time to ROCK
Igfig: Well, there are those two Wasps out there
Igfig: and you're definitely a good gunner
Lucas_Strongbow: I guess.
Igfig: as well as the pilot
Igfig: but rocking is definitely a good option!
wasps 4buzz around threateningly
Lucas_Strongbow: So i should stay piloting really
Lucas_Strongbow: While rocking out
Igfig: You can do both!
Lucas_Strongbow: Is rocking a minor?
handofevil joined #pwot_dnd.
Igfig: Tie your bass to the steering wheel or something
Igfig: Rocking is a standard
Igfig: steering is a move
Igfig: so you're good
Lucas_Strongbow: That's rhythm guitar boyo
Igfig: right, Vyr is the bass
Lucas_Strongbow: Okay, rocking it is
Lucas_Strongbow: I hear the calypso music, it's alright
Lucas_Strongbow: But not great
Igfig: Oh I should mention
Igfig: you /can/ make a secondary check as a minor action
Lucas_Strongbow: I pull out my guitar, dust it off (it's been a while) and place it around my shoulders. It feels good. It feels RIGHT.
Igfig: such as to give yourself or someone else a bonus
Lucas_Strongbow: I bust out a riff. catchy loud, kind of like ST
Lucas_Strongbow: Start Me Up, even
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+11 performance
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, performance: [16] = 27
Igfig: Oh yeah!
Lucas_Strongbow: You never forget. It's like riding a bike
Igfig: That's one success, plus:
Igfig: your riff sets a good rhythm for everyone else to follw
Lucas_Strongbow: And that's my turn
Igfig: so everyone else has a persistent +1 bonus to perform
holdr: Shame Holdr is security
wasps: The steel drums play louder to combat the impressive riff
Igfig: The steel drums come back with an upbeat funky--yes, that
Ace_Justice: Bastards are trying to cover our guitar with drums
Igfig: Slim, you want to do the Perform checks for the pirates?
wasps:  1d20+11
Fortuna: wasps,  1d20+11: [13] = 24
Ace_Justice: shit
Lucas_Strongbow: For some reason, all I can hear in my head is this www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbCTf6qxcS4
Lucas_Strongbow: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbCTf6qxcS4
Lucas_Strongbow: Link, damn you
Ace_Justice: This works
wasps: The pirates play really fucking hard
Ace_Justice: I was imagining S Club 7
wasps: playing the fuck out of those drums
Fortuna: Say please.
Ace_Justice: or maybe ELO
Igfig: I have to make Fortuna stop looking for the word "play" everywhere
Ace_Justice: Fortuna loves to play
Fortuna smiles shyly.
Ace_Justice: HAW
Lucas_Strongbow: ELO are goddamn amazing
Ace_Justice: Elo are hilarious
Ace_Justice: I can't help but laugh when I listen to those songs
wasps: The pirates play so hard they gain a consistent +1 to preform
Igfig: persistent
Igfig: (Persistent bonuses last until that side fails a check, or until the other side takes steps to negate their bonuses)
Ace_Justice: Holdr's turn?
Barvo: Holdr! Join me in a chorus!
holdr: Holdr can't do anything really
holdr: Very well
Barvo: We shall sing a song of battle!
wasps: Wait, did the wasps go?
Ace_Justice: ermm
holdr: 1d20+5 for a chorus I suppose?
Fortuna: holdr, for a chorus I suppose?: [10] = 15
Igfig: I think the wasps were surprised
Ace_Justice: maybe?
Ace_Justice: yeah they wer
Ace_Justice: were
wasps: Oh yeah
wasps: durr
Igfig: Yeah Holdr, that's good enough to give someone a +2 on their next Perform
Ace_Justice: I need all the +2's I can get
Igfig: If you can figure out a way to use a skill that you're better at, you'll be able to grant even bigger bonuses
Igfig: In any case, I guess it's Ace's turn?
Lucas_Strongbow: I just realised, with Fingers gone, we're without a lead guitarist
Igfig: oh snap
Lucas_Strongbow: I'VE JUST BEEN PROMOTED
Ace_Justice: GOOD MAN
Brigsby: Yous is Skwisgaars now
Ace_Justice: NOW ROCK THE FUCK OUT
Lucas_Strongbow: I am so Skwisgaar
holdr: Athletics and Endurance are literally the only good skills holdr has
Ace_Justice: use endurance to be a cheer leader
Ace_Justice: cheer leading is really tiring
Lucas_Strongbow: That means I was Toki before. Damn, I like Toki
Brigsby: You're still Toki, you just have a Fingers wig on
Lucas_Strongbow: I'll still be Toki. This is Thunderhorse, not Dethklok
Brigsby: Thunderhorse, Firepony, same thing
Barvo: ANyway
Barvo: get on with it.
Igfig: Okay! Ace!
Ace_Justice: Alrighty
Ace_Justice: I had this copy pasted
Ace_Justice: Ace moves to the deck of the ship, and begins his one of a kind singing. His lips smack together, his teeth clack against each other, his tongueless mouth forming sounds only he can make, and yet it is the sound of angels.
Ace_Justice: 1d20+9 preform to sing
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, preform to sing: [5] = 14
Ace_Justice: god dammit
Brigsby: I'm the lead singer you ragamuffin
Alek_Deckard: He's a beatboxer.
Lucas_Strongbow: Ace should play Drums
wasps: Your lyrics are less than stellar
Ace_Justice: "OOOOOHHMMMMMGGHHUUKKKLLLMPPPPMMMMMOOOOO"
Lucas_Strongbow: Seems the type
Igfig: Luckily you have those bonuses from Lucas and Holdr
Ace_Justice: "WUUAAAAAAAAMMMMMHHUUPPPPPPP
Igfig: total of +3
Ace_Justice: Ace is a great singer, it's just difficult in tense situations
Ace_Justice: 17 then?
Igfig: yeah, and that's just barely enough for a success
Ace_Justice: *phew*
Ace_Justice: I'll use a secondary skill check
Ace_Justice: 1d20+12 endurance to cheer lead our side 
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, endurance to cheer lead our side : [11] = 23
Igfig: that was a pretty good one
Ace_Justice: I do mad flips and rolls
Ace_Justice: wave my arms around in a sporadic dance of joy
Ace_Justice: Empowering our faithful band, and spurning them ever farther into the powers of rock
Igfig: it was just a minor action thing though, so the bonus will be pretty small
Ace_Justice: Oh well
Ace_Justice: end turn
Igfig: Choose: +2 to next check, or persistent +1?
Ace_Justice: hmm
Ace_Justice: +2 to the next check
Barvo: (+2)
Barvo: thanks
Igfig: Aright
Barvo: Caught up in the rhythm and sound. Barvo does a primal dance. Synching with the music body and mind.
Barvo: Acrobatics!
Barvo: 1d20+6+2+1
Fortuna: Barvo, 1d20+6+2+1: [20] = 29
Barvo: Fuck yeah!
Ace_Justice: holy balls
Igfig: Well, the +2 would be to the next Perform check, not to a secondary check...
Aryanni: Bravo!
Barvo: Okay
Igfig: and I don' think you needed it anyway
Ace_Justice: Bravo Barvo!
Igfig: as for the, uh, natural 20
Ace_Justice: Barvo breaks down and does a kickin' break dance
Igfig: Ideas, Slim?
Igfig: This sounds like an ideal place for something unusual to happen
Ace_Justice: He distracts the other band with his wild movements?
Barvo: He embodies the primal spirits?
Ace_Justice: Or he moves so heroicly that the wild energy in the primal spirits erupts out of him
Ace_Justice: causing flames and electricity to swirly around him
Igfig: Looks like Slim disappeared
Ace_Justice: adding the howls of wolves in tune to our music
Igfig: okay
wasps: I was researching
Ace_Justice: swirl around him*
wasps:  1d20+5
Fortuna: wasps,  1d20+5: [3] = 8
Ace_Justice: I wouldn't wanna try and give barvo a swirly
wasps: Shit
Igfig: What just happened?
wasps: Your intense rock soundwaves knock the pirates off balance
wasps: They lose their next +1
Igfig: Yeah, they lose their persistent bonus
Igfig: and they also don't get to make their next perform check
Barvo: Barrrvo!
Igfig: so basically you guys are now one check ahead of them
Barvo: cool
Igfig: Alek turn!
Barvo: I have a +0 to either perform check anyway
Igfig: heheh
Barvo: Go!
Alek_Deckard: No Aryanni's turn, look at the initiatives.
Barvo: Barvo is security
Igfig: oh
Igfig: someone mistyped
Igfig: Aryanni!
Aryanni: 1d20+14 to move the ship
Fortuna: Aryanni, to move the ship: [19] = 33
Igfig: Aryanni's at the helm now?
Alek_Deckard: Aryanni is taking over at the helm, yes.
Lucas_Strongbow: Acrobatics?
holdr: Wait. I thought we all had a +5 to perform
Barvo: technically
Igfig: Not everybody is trained in Perform I think
Aryanni: yeah, Brigs and I pulled a switcheroo
holdr: Welp. No more +5 for me then
Igfig: some people took regular backgrounds
Barvo: Oh right
Igfig: it's completely your choice!
Barvo: Barvo has no background
Igfig: Then his background can be the perform one
Barvo: He sort of just showed up one day
Barvo: His background is more likely in smashing.
Lucas_Strongbow: Make him the drummer
Aryanni: 1d20+14 to attune the airwaves all magic like and turn this shit up to 11!!!
Fortuna: Aryanni, to attune the airwaves all magic like and turn this shit up to 11!!!: [7] = 21
Ace_Justice: can you make a y sound without a tongue?
Igfig: Okay Aryanni... actually, you don't need to make an Arcana check to move the ship normally, just if you want to do a stunt
Barvo: can the drummer do strength checks?
wasps: You somehow make the ship powerslide 90 degrees
Igfig: so what kind of stunt would you like to do?
Igfig: Oh
Igfig: That works
wasps: He just wanted to turn it, yes?
Frogbone quit.
Igfig: Attunign the airwaves all magic like and turning it up to 11
wasps: And powerslides are fucking sweet
wasps: Not to mention a ship doing one.
wasps: In space.
Aryanni: Pull the powerslide, make us look fucking awesome, sounds good.
Igfig: Right on
Igfig:  33 is an excellent result
Ace_Justice: powersliding a space ship?
Aryanni: it CAN be done...maybe >.>
Igfig: I think that's a full +4 to the next Perform check
Brigsby quit.
Igfig: Also: Are you moving the ship anywhere?
Aryanni: to the right W?
Aryanni: so we can broadside, with rock!
Igfig: Okay, sounds good
Igfig: Also with lasers I hope
Alek_Deckard: Right, how many squares?
PwotMoose joined #pwot_dnd.
Igfig: Oh, and Lucas make an Acrobatics check to pilot
Alek_Deckard: Or hexes I suppose.
Alek_Deckard: Buddy has issues seeing the colors.
Igfig: You can move three hexes
Alek_Deckard: Kay.
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+14
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, 1d20+14: [3] = 17
Ace_Justice: balls
Lucas_Strongbow: Ooh
Igfig:  17?  Uhoh
Ace_Justice: uhh oohhhh
Lucas_Strongbow: Can't all be winners
Ace_Justice: quick use might makes right!
Alek_Deckard: That won't help with this.
Ace_Justice: you've got 6 unbloodied people around yoy
Ace_Justice: you
Igfig: One of those big swinging leaves comes out of nowhere and batters the unnamed ship in the side
Ace_Justice: oh yeah we need a name for this ship
Ace_Justice: I forgot about that
Igfig:  1d20+8 vs Fort
Fortuna: Igfig, vs Fort: [6] = 14
Lucas_Strongbow: I was distracted by Barvo's wonderful dance
Igfig: luckily your ship is extremely well-armoured
Ace_Justice: we all were
Ace_Justice: we all were...
Igfig: and the leaf bounces right off
Ace_Justice: well grass isn't very effective against steel
Igfig: believe me, you don't want to get hit solidly by one of those
Igfig: each leaf is about 8 times as long as your ship
Ace_Justice: holy fuck
Igfig: and much thiker
Igfig: thicker
Igfig: actually, more like 10 times, I miscounted
Igfig: Anyway
Igfig: who's up next?
Igfig: Alek?
Barvo: Alek
Ace_Justice: yeah
Alek_Deckard: Civilian Laser Cannon time!
Alek_Deckard: 1d20+7
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard, 1d20+7: [10] = 17
Alek_Deckard: vs. That wasp we are near now.
Alek_Deckard: Not a very good roll.
Igfig: Only +7, really?
Ace_Justice: we've all been getting bad rolls today
Alek_Deckard: Well, probably not sure.
Alek_Deckard: Wait, +9, forgot the half-level stuff, and, the other stuff is for implements only, so yeah.
Alek_Deckard: So a 19.
Igfig: I think that's a hit, Slim?
Brigsby quit.
PwotMoose joined #pwot_dnd.
Brigsby: Mibbit keeps kicking me off
Igfig: Yeah, it is
Igfig: Exactly a hit
Alek_Deckard: 4d6+4
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard, 4d6+4: [3, 6, 2, 6] = 21
wasps: Yes hit
Alek_Deckard: 21 damage to the wasp on the right then.
wasps: Do we have a person in charge of taking damage?
Igfig: Hm?
Igfig: That's easy enough for me to write down
Igfig: it's in the Scribblar chat pane
Igfig: Also, I just realized how few ranged-weapon people we have these days
Ace_Justice: I have a sling
Ace_Justice: I made sure to grab it just in case
Brigsby: I'm all ranged
Igfig: Far-walker and Milo don't seem to show up any more
wasps 4buzz really angrily
Ace_Justice: Milo never shows up anyways
Igfig: I mean ranged-/weapon/
Lucas_Strongbow: Is it just me?
Ace_Justice: Go get 'em lucas
Ace_Justice: Hero can be a ranged mage
Igfig: because people with ranged weapon powers are a lot more effective with vehicle ranged weapons...
Lucas_Strongbow: Oh lord, the PRESSURE
Ace_Justice: DON'T FUCK UP LUCAS
Barvo: Hero is based on int
Barvo: rather than text
Barvo: dex*
Ace_Justice: oh
Igfig: I think maybe I'll allow people to use any weapon attack as a ranged attack with a vehicle weapon
Ace_Justice: Hell
Ace_Justice: yes
Ace_Justice: Launch my axe at them
Igfig: even if the power is only supposed to be used with a ranged weapon
Igfig: er
Alek_Deckard: And then there is me with my implements, teehee.
Igfig: even if the power is only supposed to be used with a /melee/ weapon
Lucas_Strongbow: The problem is, I'm the only one with ranged weapon attacks, but I'm the pilot
Lucas_Strongbow: I can't leave
Ace_Justice: switch with someone/
Ace_Justice: ?
Igfig: and oh, I have something else up my sleeve for you implement folks
Ace_Justice: I have er, 
Alek_Deckard: Dun dun dun?
Ace_Justice: +2 arcana
Ace_Justice: that will do right?
Igfig: no
Alek_Deckard: He's the pilot, that means acrobatics.
Igfig: arcana is not used to pliot
Ace_Justice: 1d20 for I bet it will
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, for I bet it will: [16] = 16
Ace_Justice: oh
Ace_Justice: well never mind then
Ace_Justice: also sorry for whoever's roll I just stole
Ace_Justice: Who's turn is it anyways?
Brigsby: Mine, I think
Igfig: for now, you can use melee weapon powers with your ballistae as if they were ranged
Igfig: Oh, the F
Aryanni: Oh F!
Alek_Deckard: Yeah it is Brigsby's turn, I can't think of much, oh yeah the F at the end of the list that isn't there anymore.
Igfig: You see some activity in the left flower, the one that doesn't have the band inside
Aryanni: Flower Power!
Igfig:  1d20+8-2 vs ship Reflex
Fortuna: Igfig, vs ship Reflex: [12] = 18
Alek_Deckard: Damn, hit.
Igfig: wait, sorry
Brigsby: Well, someone else is at the helm now, right?
Igfig: should have been -5, it has a really bad angle on you right now
Alek_Deckard: Yeah Aryanni is.
Alek_Deckard: Oh, then it is a miss, hooray!
Brigsby: Alright, Lucas, are you using the weapon stuff now?
Igfig: A blast of some kind of primal spell magnified ten times over flares out of the flower, narrowly missing you and detonating off in empty space
Igfig: in a whirl of vines and grinding eartlh
holdr: Holdr pulls out a couch and falls asleep
Igfig: it looks like it's designed to shoot out into space, not back into the tangle
Igfig: hence the inaccuracy
Igfig: it's a good thing you guys came in under cover, though
Barvo: heehee
Igfig: would not have been fun to face something like that in the open
wasps: Holdr sleeps a lot
wasps: Must be an iron deficiency.
Ace_Justice: Holdr said dnd isn't fun today
holdr: He's old
Ace_Justice: despite is not taking part
Igfig: okay
Ace_Justice: OH HI HOLDR
Lucas_Strongbow: I'm still piloting, I'll focus on performance, I get one of the biggest bonuses
Ace_Justice: PLEASE DISREGARD THAT COMMENT
Lucas_Strongbow: Room reference
wasps: Sorry holdr. Some days are slow for some players.
Igfig: oh crap, my words are not showing up
Igfig: oh wiat
Igfig: hehe
Barvo: where?
Lucas_Strongbow: Yes they are
Igfig: yeah they are
Igfig: Brigsby, your turn
Brigsby: OKAY
Brigsby: I'll man a ballista
Igfig: And sorry Holdr... maybe you guys should invest in more heavy vehicle weapons, since those use Strength instead of Dex
Brigsby: and fire at... whatever's closest
Igfig: W2
Brigsby: gotcha, I'll shoot the Laser Cannon at it
Igfig: I think Alek's at the cannon
Brigsby: Ballista then
Igfig: k
Brigsby: 1d20+6+4 vs AC
Fortuna: Brigsby, vs AC: [5] = 15
Igfig: not so much, no
wasps: Guys I'm gonna duck out for a minute to wake myself up. Don't get to far without me.
Brigsby: well poop
Brigsby: Umm
Ace_Justice: panic?
Igfig: And it's now the wasps' turn
Brigsby: I was a little preoccupied, so I didn't plan, so I guess Wasps' turn
wasps: Oh. I'll go real quick then'
Igfig: k
Brigsby: WAIT MINOR ACTION RELOAD BALLISTA OK DONE
Igfig: aright cool
wasps: wasp 2 flies over your ship
wasps:  1d20+8 VS reflex
Fortuna: wasps, VS reflex: [13] = 21
Brigsby: that's a hit
Barvo: hits ship
wasps: Something from under it detaches and lands on your deck.
Ace_Justice: uh oh
Brigsby: Boarding Party
wasps: Exploding apart in a shower of debris
holdr: Holdr lifts his head slightly
Barvo: Barvo glances over excitedly
Ace_Justice: Should someone climb down and punch it?
wasps: Leaving a large and very pissed of shark on your deck
Ace_Justice: OH FUCK
Barvo: Barvo like.
wasps:  1d20+4
Fortuna: wasps,  1d20+4: [17] = 21
Lucas_Strongbow: What
holdr: Holdr climbs off the couch slowly and rubs his eyes
holdr: Then grabs his spear
Brigsby: "We're havin' seafood for dinner, boys!"
wasps: Someone add its inti to the Que 
Ace_Justice: Ace punches holdr
wasps: Or however you spell that
Igfig: also there was a damage roll for that explosion
Igfig:  4d8+14 damage to ship
Fortuna: Igfig, damage to ship: [2, 8, 1, 8] = 33
Igfig: and half that damage to creatures on deck
Alek_Deckard: Well crud.
Ace_Justice: dank
Barvo: so 16 dmg?
Ace_Justice: 16?
wasps: W1! (who should have gone first but whatever)
Igfig: yeah, 16 damage
wasps: It uses a minor action to shift two squares
Igfig: if you're piloting, you're not deck though
Igfig: Oh, O forgot about that
Igfig: W1 can use its bomb too
wasps: It shall, then!
holdr: Holdr knocks Ace prone and prepares for combat
Igfig: that's good, two sharks at once
wasps:  1d20+8
Fortuna: wasps,  1d20+8: [7] = 15
Alek_Deckard: vs.?
Barvo: miss
wasps: Reflex
Igfig: I think the explosion was a dud
Ace_Justice: probably a miss anyways
Alek_Deckard: Yeah it missed.
Igfig: so the shark lands, but no explosion
Alek_Deckard: Wether ac or reflex it is a miss.
wasps: It lands on rge railing and bounces off, sailing off into space
Igfig: no, no
wasps: Or that
Igfig: yeah, the shark lands no matter what
wasps: The exterior of the bomb falls away, revealing another angry shark
Igfig: because the shark is an effect of that attack
Ace_Justice: That shark is about to get fucked
Ace_Justice: no wait
Alek_Deckard: But the shark bouncing off into space sounds entertaining.
Ace_Justice: we should try and saffle it
Ace_Justice: saddle
Igfig: yeah, but one shark wouldn't be much challenge for you guy
Igfig: s
Ace_Justice: get a space shark steed
Igfig: this is not a space shark
Igfig: it does not swim in space
Alek_Deckard: And Thorn is busy anyways.
Igfig: it is a regular shark
holdr: Space cow
Ace_Justice: why do they have a regular shark lying around to use as ammunition
wasps: End
Alek_Deckard: Why not?
Ace_Justice: where did they GET the shark
Alek_Deckard: Wouldn't you want to keep a shark around as ammunition?
Igfig: Space sharks do exist though
wasps: Sharks turn already?
Igfig: and that is a mystery you will have to solve someday
holdr: Space cows
Igfig: oh, that's silly
Igfig: move the sharks' init
Igfig:  1d20+4 init
Fortuna: Igfig, init: [17] = 21
Igfig: shit
Ace_Justice: oops
Ace_Justice: I uh
Ace_Justice: deleted the init
Barvo: don't new enemies just go to the bottom
Igfig: undo it
Barvo: fixed
Igfig: we should just put them somewhere they'll fit nicely
wasps: Put them one above
wasps: Right now they're only like, 1 away from the wasps
Igfig: okay
Igfig: they go on init 12.5
wasps: Sounds good
Ace_Justice: These sharks are world renown break dancers
wasps: OK, back in a few
Igfig: Holdr's turn!
Ace_Justice: Holdr!
Ace_Justice: brb, I need to go grab some more pie
Ace_Justice: I just ate an entire pie though
holdr: ALRIGHT
holdr: Where is our ship map
holdr: I see no ship map
Igfig: oh , whatever
holdr: Meh
Igfig: sharks can barely move on land anyway
Alek_Deckard: There is a ship map but it still has the scribbles from the last fight.
holdr: Just stab something
Igfig: Assume you can maneuver as you like to outflankt he shark
holdr: Shark or Ace, makes no difference
holdr: 1d20+11
Fortuna: holdr, 1d20+11: [11] = 22
Igfig: Hit!
holdr: 1d10+1d8+6
Fortuna: holdr, 1d10+1d8+6: [1, 3] = 10
holdr: End turn
Ace_Justice: back
Ace_Justice: with pie
Barvo: Lucas
Igfig: Lucas!
Igfig: Lucas_Strongbow!
Igfig: Lucas delays
Igfig: The pirate band goes again
Lucas_Strongbow: Sorry, my internet went weird
Igfig: One particularly large lizardman does a sultry saxophone solo while the others chime in with maraca accompaniment
Igfig: oh, go ahead then
Ace_Justice: Oh shit
Ace_Justice: guys
Lucas_Strongbow: RAWK
Ace_Justice: they have a sax
Ace_Justice: I don't think we can beat this
Ace_Justice: how close are we to these guys?
Lucas_Strongbow: Realising that our band lacks  a lead, a sense of destiny flows through me
Igfig: The pirate band?  Bout 400 feet away
Lucas_Strongbow: This is the role I was born to play. Riffs are for suckers. SOLOS are where it's at
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+12 BITCHIN' SOLO
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, BITCHIN' SOLO: [5] = 17
wasps: OK, here I am
Lucas_Strongbow: Lame
Igfig: Wait, wait
wasps: A bit more awake
Igfig: Remember, there was a +1 persistent bonus and I think +4 in other bonuses
Lucas_Strongbow: I did the +1, so 21 then
Igfig: Well, that's a successful piece of music
Igfig: but I'm not sure I'd call it a BITCHIN' SOLO quite
Igfig: so no side bonuses
Igfig: As for the pirates,
Igfig:  1d20+11 saxophone solo!
Fortuna: Igfig, saxophone solo!: [15] = 26
Igfig: Oooh
Ace_Justice: oh shit
Lucas_Strongbow: Cripes
Igfig: You got served, Lucas
Brigsby: it's PvP night all over again
Igfig: Your persistent bonus is gone
Lucas_Strongbow: Man, they took my shit apart
Lucas_Strongbow: I'm new to solos, what can I say. I'm not Fingers. YET
Ace_Justice: Epix Sax Lizard
Igfig: Ace's turn!
Ace_Justice: hmm
Ace_Justice: I... will...
Ace_Justice: Shift into the Duelist's assault stance
Ace_Justice: then charge the shark on our deck
Ace_Justice: 1d20+14 vs ac
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, vs ac: [9] = 23
Ace_Justice: 1d12+18 damage
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, damage: [6] = 24
Igfig: Thass a hit!
Ace_Justice: 24 damage!
Ace_Justice: Then while it is distracted
Igfig: The shark is bloodied!
Ace_Justice: I leap onto it's back and get my feet under it's fins, making myself a make shift perch
Ace_Justice: 1d20+4 acrobatcis
Fortuna: Ace_Justice, acrobatcis: [14] = 18
Igfig: Yeah, you hop up onto it
Igfig: okay!
Ace_Justice: Guys, we are saving this shark
Ace_Justice: end tuirn
Ace_Justice: turn
Igfig: Barvo!
Barvo: My turn
Barvo: hmm
Barvo: I will use devastating strike
Barvo: on S1
Barvo: 1d20+9
Fortuna: Barvo, 1d20+9: [10] = 19
Barvo: 1d12+1d8+7
Fortuna: Barvo, 1d12+1d8+7: [10, 6] = 23
Igfig: ooh, lemme see
Igfig: Not dead, but quite close
Barvo: k
Barvo: Action point!
Ace_Justice: YOU BASTARD THIS IS MY SHARK STEAD
Ace_Justice: Ace frantically waves his arms at barvo
Barvo: Do it again
Ace_Justice: telling him not to strike
Barvo: 1d20+9
Fortuna: Barvo, 1d20+9: [15] = 24
Ace_Justice: NOOOOO
Barvo: 1d12+1d8+7
Fortuna: Barvo, 1d12+1d8+7: [8, 6] = 21
Barvo: Aweseom
Barvo: free charge on the other shark
Barvo: 1d20+10
Fortuna: Barvo, 1d20+10: [17] = 27
Ace_Justice: You.... you bastard
Barvo: 1d12+7
Fortuna: Barvo, 1d12+7: [5] = 12
Igfig: Ace is now standing on a dead shark
Ace_Justice: Ace breaks into manly sobs
Barvo: done
Ace_Justice: no wait
Ace_Justice: Ace poses 
Ace_Justice: axe above his head
Ace_Justice: as the flaming planet frames him in light
Igfig: and the other shark is now a little unhappy too
Ace_Justice: Atop the shark
Ace_Justice: apparently with the other shark in the background looking to kill him
Igfig: it's not qutie a planet
Ace_Justice: plnat*
Ace_Justice: plant**
wasps: Drop the E
Igfig: yes
Ace_Justice: my fingers are used to typing planet, not plant
Igfig: Aright Barvo, good slaying!
wasps: Well, it's probably connected to a  small clump of dirt.
Igfig: who knows
Igfig: Sharks turn!
Igfig: *shark
Lucas_Strongbow: I am very excited to see what the sharks can actually do
Igfig: Are any of you bloodied?
Barvo: nope
Ace_Justice: Use splash attack!
Lucas_Strongbow: None of us are hurt at all
Brigsby: I'm hurt
Igfig: Some of you took damage in the explosion
Brigsby: from the first shark bomb
Alek_Deckard: Nah those of us on the deck or whichever got hurt from the exploding thing from the first shark.
wasps: Alright
Alek_Deckard: Didn't bloody anyone though I don't think.
wasps: Who is near the shark?
Igfig: Just barvo I think
Ace_Justice: Barvo and ace
Igfig: ace is on the dead shark
Barvo: The living shark
Ace_Justice: oh yeah
Barvo: just has Barvo near it
wasps: The living shark luges at barvo for revenge
Ace_Justice: flopping against the deck
Barvo: Barvo meets it!
wasps:  1d20+10 VS AC
Fortuna: wasps, VS AC: [18] = 28
Ace_Justice: oh my
Barvo: tyotal hit
Igfig: very much so
wasps: It lunges and sinks its teeth into your forearm for...
wasps:  2d8+7
Fortuna: wasps,  2d8+7: [7, 6] = 20
Barvo: nice
Barvo: bloodied now
Barvo: by 5 points
Igfig: hurrah
Igfig: Guess it's Aryanni then?
Barvo: brb
Aryanni: 1d20+14 to aling the ship in tune with the rock and amp it up to eleven, the new eleven that is...even more noise!
Fortuna: Aryanni, to aling the ship in tune with the rock and amp it up to eleven, the new eleven that is...even more noise!: [17] = 31
Igfig: Incidentally Aryanni, you can do stunts for things like, say, granting a bonus to attacks or damage with vehicle weapons
Igfig: but that's good too
Igfig: I guess it's up to 12 now
Brigsby: PILOT THE SHIP SO WE CAN GET OFF THIS THING AND GET BOOTY
Aryanni: 12 does exist!
Ace_Justice: 12 isn't a real number!
Igfig: you guys may not be as skilled as you were--you're a little out of practice--but you are pretty damn loud
Ace_Justice: Science hasn't proven it!
Aryanni: 1d20+11 for the Flower Power and my move!
Fortuna: Aryanni, for the Flower Power and my move!: [13] = 24
Aryanni: 1d20+14 pardon
Fortuna: Aryanni, pardon: [5] = 19
Brigsby: er, how about just add 3 to the original roll
Alek_Deckard: Yeah, so 27.
Ace_Justice: I agree with the above
Igfig: yes
Igfig: Also, flower power?  What exactly?
Aryanni: mmkay, works, lets roll round w2 on the ouside
Aryanni: To the Flowers my man!
Aryanni: And Loot!
Igfig: Oh, right!
Alek_Deckard: He's getting us closer to the flowers, and the loot, and stuffs.
Igfig: Yeah
Igfig: Once you break the shield, you'll be able to get in
Igfig: Acrobatics from Lucas?
Lucas_Strongbow: 1d20+14
Fortuna: Lucas_Strongbow, 1d20+14: [20] = 34
Lucas_Strongbow: BACK IN THE SADDLE
Aryanni: Go Lucas!
Ace_Justice: holy shit
Igfig: Oh daamn
Lucas_Strongbow: That's my second crit of the night
Igfig: Critical success?  Lessee
Ace_Justice: explosions frame our barrel roll?
Ace_Justice: A passing photographer takes a picture that becomes famous universe wide?
Lucas_Strongbow: The shark falls off?
Igfig: So the Wasp is chasing you through the sweeping leaves, right?
Brigsby: He weaves expertly through the shield?
Ace_Justice: No, we need that shark
holdr: We keep the shark
Brigsby: Ah, Empire Strikes Back Asteroid Field trick
Aryanni: In agreement, for once eh?
Ace_Justice: we are going to launch it at the enemies
Ace_Justice: out of the ballistae
Igfig: You tear directly head-on into a leaf swinging toward you
Aryanni: Ah, balista style?
Ace_Justice: because where's the fun in dnd without the bat shit crazy
Igfig: then at the last moment, you barrel-roll out of the way
Aryanni: Amen
Igfig: and the leaf slams into the Wasp
Igfig:  1d20+8 vs. Fort
Fortuna: Igfig, vs. Fort: [10] = 18
Igfig: Hit!
holdr: Bzzzzz
Igfig:  3d10+9 damage, and the Wasp slides 1 square and falls prone
Fortuna: Igfig, damage, and the Wasp slides 1 square and falls prone: [2, 10, 8] = 29
Ace_Justice: how do you knock a vehicle prone
holdr: Falling prone in space
Ace_Justice: what happens?
Lucas_Strongbow: "Leafing so soon?"
wasps 4buzz off course
Ace_Justice: WOOOOO
holdr: More importantly, how do you fall prone ins pace
Ace_Justice: PUNS
Aryanni: "Let's make a point to never hit those leaves eh?"
wasps: Once you start spinning you can't stop
Igfig: Prone is a sort of abstract concept
Igfig: you can knock a slime or a swarm prone, even
Ace_Justice: oh
Ace_Justice: alrighty then
holdr: I like to imagine this is sort of like that space honey episode of futurama
Ace_Justice: heh
Igfig: it just means that it's in disarray and it has to take a move action to reform itself
holdr: Which the wasp chase through the hvie
Ace_Justice: and they all die?
Ace_Justice: Or the other one?
Igfig: Hell, you can even flavour knocking someone prone as disarming them and they take a move action to recover their weapon
Igfig: They don't die, no
Ace_Justice: I remember there is a christmas special in the bees hive where they all get stung to death
Igfig: but they'll be moving slower next turn, which means they may end up getting hit again
Igfig: Alek's turn!
Alek_Deckard: Right, MORE civilian laser cannon!
Alek_Deckard: 1d20+9
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard, 1d20+9: [13] = 22
Alek_Deckard: On W2.
Igfig: Hit!
Alek_Deckard: 4d6+4
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard, 4d6+4: [5, 2, 5, 6] = 22
Alek_Deckard: Well that's interesting.
Igfig: Wait, 4d6/+4/?
Igfig: ...Oh, rght
Igfig: it's not enchanted
Igfig: nevr mind
Igfig:  22 damage it is
Alek_Deckard: Yeah, and my damage bonus for my moves apply only to my vampiric moves, otherwise my charisma modifier would be in on that too.
Igfig: And W2 is Damaged!
Igfig: (which is like Bloodied)
Igfig: and that means
Igfig: Mishap!
Igfig:  1d10
Fortuna: Igfig,  1d10: [10] = 10
Igfig: Hell yes!
Barvo: critical mishap!
Alek_Deckard: ?
Ace_Justice quit.
Igfig: Roll twice and apply both!
mib_rv368v joined #pwot_dnd.
Igfig:  2d20
Fortuna: Igfig,  2d20: [4, 7] = 11
Igfig: Lessee... Shield damage and hull breach
Ace_Justice: you would have gotten a 20 had holdr not gotten one in ooc
Ace_Justice: never mind, I was corrected
Alek_Deckard: And I'm gonna try one of those secondary checks.
Igfig: Loses another 17 hp, and there's a big hole blown in the side
Igfig: -2 to its acrobatics checks
Igfig: It is very likely to get smashed again on its turn
wasps: Alright sorry guys but I really have to turn in. I wanted to last till the wasps next turn, but I have a busy day tomorrow
Igfig: Okay!
Igfig: Aright, night Slim!
Mib: night slim
Alek_Deckard: Alek gives a prayer of thanks to Pelor for this turn of events, and asks for some help with all this sunlight, hoping Pelor to lessen up a bit and cut down on the giant flower's power.
Alek_Deckard: 1d20+7
Fortuna: Alek_Deckard, 1d20+7: [17] = 24
Mib: uh
Igfig: Ooh
Mib: I've never thought to use religion like that
Igfig: Very nice
Igfig: You have concealment against the flower this turn
Mib: word
holdr moons the flower
Alek_Deckard: That's no moon.
Mib: that's a battlestation!
Igfig: harhar
Mib: no wait it's just his penis
holdr: Actually it's my butt
holdr: Yes
holdr: It is
Igfig: And it's now the flower's turn, innit
Mib: It's my butt, yes sirree bob
Alek_Deckard: Si.
Igfig: It's got all kinds of penalties to hit right now, which is good
Igfig:  1d20+8-5-2 vs Reflex
Fortuna: Igfig, vs Reflex: [4] = 5
Alek_Deckard: Wow.
Mib: Let me tell you about my cats
Igfig: and so unsurpisingly it fires in the completely wrong direction
Mib: and hit's my cat
Mib: hits
Mib: poor fluffy mckillington
Igfig: Brognst!
Igfig: er
Igfig: Brigsby
Mib: hahaha
Igfig: that was ana mazing typo
Mib: that's a mistake I would make
Brigsby: Alrighty
Igfig: heheheh
Brigsby: we've still got a live shark, yes?
Mib: gpt rcs,[; yjod js[[rmd woiyr s noy
Igfig: We sure do
holdr: Ace wants to fire it out of a ballista
Mib: Yes I do
Brigsby: Alive?
Mib: at the enemies
Mib: yes
Mib: of course
holdr: Preferably alive
Brigsby: balls
Mib: what do you take me for
Brigsby: Ok, well
Igfig: Well, on Ace's turn he should pick up the shark and put it there then
holdr: I'll be rolling str on my turn
Igfig: but for now, it's Brigsby's turn
Brigsby: I'll fire a ballista at W2 then
Igfig: okay
Brigsby: 1d20+6+4 vs AC
Fortuna: Brigsby, vs AC: [20] = 30
Brigsby: YES
Ace_Justice: WOOP
Igfig: oh damn
Igfig: this is a magic ballista, too
Ace_Justice: I should launch the sharks at the band
Brigsby: so that's 2d8+2+6+magic
Igfig: so that's, like, +2d6 on top of the regular crit damage
Igfig: yeah
Brigsby: ok
Brigsby: 2d6+26
Fortuna: Brigsby, 2d6+26: [2, 3] = 31
Igfig: the 2d8 is maximized
Ace_Justice: ewr
Igfig: fun times
Brigsby: 31 damage
Igfig: The Wasp is heavily damaged
Igfig: but not quite destroyed yet
Igfig: The pirates are still calypso-ing it up 
Brigsby: wait, I have a power for when I get a crit or something
Igfig: oh
Brigsby: it gets pushed a square and I can fly
Igfig: Also I think a lot of people still have their action points left
Igfig: pushed, eh?
Brigsby: which isn't useful at all right now so nevermind
Brigsby: well, push is useful
Brigsby: I push it a square
Brigsby: and then fly around in triumph
Igfig: I think... I think that pushes it into the Tangled Heart
Brigsby: YES
Igfig: Hmm... I guess I should take its turn before the band's, then
Igfig: Okay, so first of all it takes 10 damage just for starting its turn there
Igfig: And... since it's prone in the Tangled Heart
Igfig: it's restrained
Igfig: save ends
Igfig: The crew of the ship scrambles to grant it a saving throw
Igfig:  1d20+7 Endurance
Fortuna: Igfig, Endurance: [10] = 17
Igfig: Not quite good enough
Igfig: so it doesn't get to move on its turn
Brigsby: I take back flying around in circles, I just float in the air, slowly spinning, and laugh maniacally 
Igfig:  1d20 save
Fortuna: Igfig, save: [15] = 15
Igfig: it does get out of the tangle eventually though
Igfig: but as for that Pilot check...
Igfig:  1d20+7-2 Acrobatics
Fortuna: Igfig, Acrobatics: [8] = 13
Brigsby: wah waaah
Igfig: not nearly good enough to escape the giant leaves
Igfig:  1d20+8+2 vs Fort
Fortuna: Igfig, vs Fort: [10] = 20
Igfig:  3d10+9 damage
Fortuna: Igfig, damage: [10, 6, 7] = 32
Igfig: CRUNCH
Brigsby: he dead
Igfig: yep!
Alek_Deckard: One squashed wasp.
Ace_Justice: He's dead jim
Igfig: I'm not sure whether this means I should stop putting such elaborate deathtraps on my maps, or I should put more
Ace_Justice: more
Ace_Justice: I love elaborate death traps
Igfig: Haha
Brigsby: I think what you have here is a good amount
Igfig: It's almost never you guys who end up falling into them
Brigsby: one or two, but easy enough to maneuver around
Ace_Justice: you can never have enough elaborate death traps
Igfig: yeah, I guess this is about right
Igfig: Anyway
Alek_Deckard: So it is like traps in Skyrim, in abundance, but usually used on enemies.
Brigsby: but still really dangerous
Brigsby: or Sven
Igfig: the other Wasp fires its ballista
Alek_Deckard: Or Sven.
Igfig:  1d20+10 vs. AC
Fortuna: Igfig, vs. AC: [2] = 12
Igfig: and misses you
Barvo: miiissss
Igfig: by many metres
Brigsby: I'm still floating and laughing
Igfig: And it flies out of the aloe
Igfig: The band keeps playing, more frenziedly now
Brigsby: they know we mean business
Igfig: three lizardguys put their steel drums next to each others', with all three of them playing all three drums
Igfig:  1d20+11 Perform
Fortuna: Igfig, Perform: [4] = 15
Ace_Justice: hahah
Igfig: and oh fuck they actually fail the check
Igfig: just getting in each others' way
Igfig: Guys, you're now two checks ahead of them
Igfig: just need to get one more ahead to win the Battle of the Bands
Igfig: and destroy that barrier
Igfig: Holdr!
Barvo: awesome
Barvo: Holdr! play the song of your people!
holdr: ALRIGHT
Barvo: HRRRNKKK
Ace_Justice: HOLDR NOOOO
Ace_Justice: REMEMBER THE PLAN
Igfig: GRMPH HURGL BRAR
holdr: The song of my people is picking up sharks
Ace_Justice: A shark can do more damage then-- WOOOO
Igfig: Live ones or dead ones?
holdr: Ig, is this just a standard 1d20+5 str roll?
holdr: Or would I use my 1d20+11 attk roll?
Alek_Deckard: Maybe minus the proficiency bonus from your weapon?
Alek_Deckard: And feats relating to it.
Igfig: The dead shark is much easier, and you'd use a plain strength check; the live one you have to wrangle and wrestle, and you'd have to make an unarmed Strength attack
Barvo: wrangle it
holdr: Oh crap
holdr: Uh
Barvo: also, do we have a healer?
Igfig: Str vs. Reflex
holdr: Why must my unarmed be based off of d- VERY WELL
Igfig: what? Dex?
holdr: 1d20+5 str v Ref
Fortuna: holdr, str v Ref: [11] = 16
holdr: I thought unarmed was based off dex?
holdr: Oh wait no
holdr: That's my ranged
holdr: CARRY ON
Igfig: It's based off the same thing you use for your melee basic attacks
holdr: I was looking at my ranged roll
Igfig: In any case... are you just grabbing it, or would you like to get more elaborate and descriptive?
holdr: DESCRIPTIVE
