Sorceress

Ok, last try, then I will try something else... the Sorceress thinks, as she - once more - conjures a fiery bolt to hurl at the creature.

Ben O'hare, aka Brick

"Does anyone have a way to seal that?" Ben calls out. His nervousness at the slow flooding makes yet another swing go wide.

[sblock=ooc]Wowsers. Another nat 1. Invisible castle does not like Brick...

"We can fix it when we're done fighting. Just work on not letting it cause any more damage, if this place floods I can't save all of you."

The wild blow does give her an idea though, and Siren looks around quickly.

OOC:

Is there any kind of electrical outlet or anything else that might be hazardous to hit? I'd like to try a trick manuever to get the thing to attack me while in front of it and zap itself. If so I'll post my action with bluff check, If not I'll post an attack.
Well I'll post the rolls now and see what happens.
So, if she sees something useful, Siren maneuvers and attempts to trick the beast to attack her so she can dodge.
Trick check: 28
Otherwise, she stabs it with her knife again,
Attack roll 29, DC 27 Toughness (Penetrating)

"Begone creature! Die!" Helis bellows but his blow is inaccurate.

Oops, I thought I still had to wait for someone. Will update this weekend.

Round 3

Ok, last try, then I will try something else... the Sorceress thinks, as she - once more - conjures a fiery bolt to hurl at the creature and misses.
"Does anyone have a way to seal that?" Ben calls out. His nervousness at the slow flooding makes yet another swing go wide.
Both attacks help to widen the gaps in the hull, a thin sheet of water now covering the rooms floor...
"We can fix it when we're done fighting. Just work on not letting it cause any more damage, if this place floods I can't save all of you."
The wild blow does give her an idea though, and Siren looks around quickly and positions her just right and subtley feints weakness...
"Begone creature! Die!" Helis bellows but his blow is nearly inaccurate and it brushes without effect over the things "skin".

The creature attacks Siren blindly, unaware of the junction box her. Siren is ready to step aside, as the big riplidly flaying claws comes near and slams her against the wall hard, dropping her to the ground. She manages barely to hold onto consciousness, shaking her head as she struggles back to her feet.

[SBLOCK=OOC]
PF Fortitude vs Helis (DC 25) (1d20+14=26)
PF claw (all-out 5, PA 3) vs Siren Defense (DC 22) (1d20+14=32)
beats defense by 10
Siren toughness vs Claw (DC 30) (1d20+8=10)
missed by 20 = Unconscious

Siren does not expect the speed with which the beast turns on her, and slams against the wall hard, dropping to the ground. She manages barely to hold onto consciousness, shaking her head as she struggles back to her feet. "Fine, no funny business then." She Jams her knife into the beast, attempting to draw its mental energies to heal the gash it left on her.

OOC:

derp.
Reroll nets me a 21.
Attack hits 19. Toughness DC 27.
Vampiric Recovery Check: 26. If he fails the toughness save vs her knife, Siren gets to recover from her Bruise (If he fails by 5, she recovers from Daze.)
Siren: Defense 22, HP: 0, Toughness: +8 (-1 Bruise=7), Dazed(?)

OOC:

Jemal, you still have an action. Don't forget my house-rule to avoid stun-lock:

---

Replacing 'Stunned' with 'Dazed' in the 'Toughness Saving Throw Table'.

Dazed is now defined as below:

Dazed: A dazed character is limited to free actions and a single standard action per turn, although the character may use that action to perform a move, as usual. Stunned supersedes dazed.

---

There is still a "stun", but only from specific effects, not from taking damage.

Alright, edited last post to reflect that. Thanks for the reminder

Ben O'hare, aka Brick

Ben continues his bid to try to make it through the creature's tough hide, but seems to be having little effect.

[sblock=ooc]I don't think this hits, but what the heck, at least it's not another nat 1:
