Star Trek: Ascendant - Shakedown Cruise IC

[knightemplar]

OOC: The 6 becomes the first high number, then you add the second highest number, then the 3 for skill and then the -1 for two actions. So I do believe the attack would be a 13.

As Jonas dodges into the compartment and comes up firing, he hits the Gorn hiding behind the desk square in the head. The Gorn slumps forward onto some sort of computer interface. Jonas can hear what sounds like the Gorn language being played.

Taking a quick survey of the room to make sure there are no more other Gorn in the room, he notes that this is a single person cabin, quite possibly the captain's cabin.

Jonas approaches the console, and pulls his tricorder. He attempts to use it to access the console, and figure out what the recording is that is playing.

 

[knightemplar]

Looping the recording through the tricorder, shows words in English. This looks like a series of captain's logs recorded by the Gorn Captain.

As Jonas transfers the logs into his tricorder, he can only get so many of them. So will he choose the most recent or further back towards the start of the journey of the ship four months ago.

 

[Rhun]

Jonas transfers the most recent of the Captain's logs to his tricorder, guessing that those will have the most relevance to the current situation. As soon as that is complete, he quickly hurries on his way toward engineering.

Carefully moving down the hall, pausing every couple of minutes to make sure no gorn got behind him, Jonas sees the engine room ahead.

As he carefully sneaks up on the door, he hears the grunts and growls of the gorn language. Taking a peek, Jonas sees two gorn with those long wicked knives standing over Lt. Srosski who is clutching his side. Lt. Srosski growls at them in Gorn, then they both start making sounds like gutteral laughing.

There are also the two security escort people on the floor with blood oozing from their sides. There are also five or six gorn on the floor.

 

[Rhun]

Moving up to the doorway, using the bulkhead to provide him with cover, Hale takes aim and fires off two shots in rapid succession, one at each of the Gorn...



Attack 1: 6 (4 roll, +3 skill, -1 for two actions)
Attack 2: 5 (4 roll, +3 skill, -1 for two actions, -1 for drama die)

 

[knightemplar]

The first one hits the gorn standing over Lt. Srosski, while the second one goes just to the right a bit. The first gorn stands there for a second then slumps to the floor stunned.

The second gorn with rage in his eyes rushes Jonas. As Jonas levels the phaser at the oncoming gorn again, the gorn grabs Jonas' arm and starts pulling up on it causing an intense pain to Jonas. The phaser is currently pointed at the ceiling of the room.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
The second gorn is better trained than most of the others. He is also the raid leader. So he requires a 8 to hit him.

If you want to try and shoot him again it would be a contested roll, your attack versus his active defense roll. But as he is pulling up on the arm, he is allowing Jonas the use of his legs for martial arts also.

OOC: KT, I haven't forgotten about the game, just been busy. I should get Hale's next actions up tomorrow.

It's fine when ever your ready.
