Thread of Unknown Purpose...OOC for Immortals

[Amara]

I'm low in initiative order, so I'm kind of hoping to wait for folks so that I can remember where I'm actually supposed to fall on the next turn ahah

[Quarg]

Your the last PC character in initiative...

[Amara]

Ayup, hence low xD
Which for once, works in my favor, because I'm still thoroughly brain-fried from 4 days of 2-4 hours of sleep during the LAN.

The diagram helped a ton with visualization too, thanks.

[Quarg]

Amara...not sure what "it" is in your spoiler...

The Monster?
The Method used to release the Monster?
The Woman?
Or the whole situation (aka anything...)

[Amara]

the monster, sorry. Since monster lore gives me a bonus on identifying traits when using knowledges for that purpose.

So 15
You know it is a low level undead creature likely has little damage capacity but also has an inherent regeneration capability.
It is fairly well armored against attack (16).
To kill it off you either need to use a bless or hollow spell at the same time or apply holy water to the remains.
As undead it likely can see in the dark and is fairly perceptive.

Actually you recall an advertisement by a company wanting to pay people so they essentially buy their skeleton after death where they are turned into an animated skeleton like the one here. You've actually had some of their salesmen at the hospital trying to sign up the terminally ill or dying.

welllllllp I don't believe I gave him bless, so holy water it is. does it have DR/ that I can tell? Without getting pretty close to it, I'm limited to my crossbow, and I'm concerned with my ability to erm...hit while on a moving vessel.

Yes, you realize it quite well defended against bludgeoning attacks with the bit of armor it is wearing.

As for hitting on a moving ship...well the swells are not that bad at the moment and are fairly even so timing the shot for either the top or bottom of motion shouldn't be a problem for even a semi-compenent weapons user...

Of course you do realize it is facing a man armed with two pistols...and the Woman is right there...

[spiderwrangler]

Since you're both in the same ship, swells should be less problematic than on separate.....

[Amara]

I know they're there, but also don't know everyone else's full intentions yet in character. I'll just make a quick attack against the thing and probably miss to speed things along. That'll open up more possibilities after the next round anyway, and hopefully we'll hear from Tea soon?
[edit] hah, well, called that one.
Knowing my luck I'll hit once all fight :b I seem to either miss or roll 20s. I'm seemingly incapable of rolling 10s.

[Quarg]

Well I will try to get an update done this evening...

[Synch]

I need to shoot him first

[Synch]

Thought I'd better explain my rolls so we can all get used to combat with a Gunslinger.
It should actually have been 26 to hit, I forgot Point Blank Shot when rolling to attack.



18 (rolls) + 8 (ranged attack bonus) +1 (Point Blank Shot) +1 (Masterwork pistols) - 2 (Dual wielding, reduced from -6/-10 as off-hand weapon is light and Two Weapon Fighting feat) = 26.

Holstering weapon is a movement action, reloading is a free action (Rapid Reload + Alchemical Cartridges.) At level 6, after reloading I will be able to fire the pistol again for an extra attack.

Damage rolls = Rolls + 1 (special pistol) +1 (Point Blank Shot) +3 (Dex bonus, gun training at level 5) = Rolls +5

[Quarg]

Alright...NO MORE POSTING...except dialog...until update...

Post away!

[Quarg]

Hoping to get an update up on Wednesday so to those of you who have tarried, tarry no more!

[Quarg]

Amara you can do a knowledge check if you want...

[Amara]

Welp, never mind on that knowledge roll. After trying and failing to get it to roll and work all day, I....got an 11. Thaaaat's not gonna get me anything.

[Quarg]

Amara you just got an attack of opportunity against the Woman...

[Amara]

Wait, what? I didn't think she was that close to us.

[Quarg]

Your on a ship that isn't that big...for you to do what you've been posting you've had to move down the ladder closer to her...
And to be honest, the die really is against you because she just rolled a 20...

[Amara]

All I had to do was look at her, though? I shouldn't have had to move again at all, if I could already see her casting and she already had line of sight to cast on me. I know it's not very big, which is why I assumed I was already within 30 feet. How/why am I suddenly within 5, though? ._.

Not arguing with an attack of op, just confused as to how/why I'd suddenly be within 5 feet of her just to roll intimidate and unable to really do much with it other than hit her in the face with my crossbow if that, since otherwise I'd have to draw another weapon.

[Quarg]

Your not within 5 feet of her now...your within 5 feet of her during her action,,,,

[spiderwrangler]

Who is making the AoO? Initially I read that as Jagger, then the woman, then Jager, now I'm confused.

[Quarg]

The woman's actions give Jager an AoO...

Essentially she is charging right at him unarmed...so he gets an AoO before her turn completes...

[Amara]

Okay, that makes infinitely more sense. ...shooting her it is, then, since it was my move action to reload and my standard to intimidate. since I don't presently have a melee weapon drawn, and I don't have improved unarmed. (Unless I can just clock her upside the skull with a heavy crossbow :b the -4 is basically going to guarantee I don't hit anything, however, on 3/4th bab.)

The only other 'weapon' at my disposal without drawing another would be his...teeth, and I kiiiiiinda have to grapple first, which also can't be done on an AoO. :b (eep though, since 10+HD+wis mod is the usual DC on intimidate, failing with a 24 is scary. o_o)

Anywho, I edited my post with the roll for the AoO.
The dice were actually friendly for once. Who knew.
