The Psionicle, Part VI

[GnomeWorks]

After he's done this, he searches Tori'shel, looking for ammunition for the pistol, any more grenades, and what ever else she may be carrying that looks useful or dangerous.

You find, in various pockets: 9 bullets of ammunition; a pair of spectacles; a round device with several markings on it, similar to markings used for 'degrees' on a map; three more grenades; a long tubular object, similar to a tiny telescope but with two pairs of Y-shaped prongs on its underside protuding from it; a magnifying glass; two small boxes, with the ends of large pins sticking out of them; a small box-like object with two antennae sticking out of the front; and three schematics, with the labels Thunderstone, Radio, and Translator.

OOC:

OOC: Much of the information above is descriptions for her devices. No one in the group other than Niko will be able to give definite names or uses for them, although their purposes could be derived from their appearances.

Nathan then turns to Tori'shel. "Now, now, madame, there's no need for such venom. I'm sure that, if you calm down and give us half a chance, you'd see we're really quite likeable people..."

[[ Nathan then manifests Charm Person on Torishel, with the Extend Power Metapsionic feat. It'll cost him 3 PP, and if it works, she'll be charmed for 6 hours.

Will Save DC is 12 (on d20 roll) + 3 (Cha modifier) + 1 (for 1st-level Power) = 16. ]]

Manifester check - 23.

Tori'shel gets a 19 on her Will save.

"Perhaps you would be," She says, sneering at Nathan, "if you did not try to charm me into trusting you."

Desimus
"...Tori'shel turned on me when I stayed to help her find her watch..."

"Indeed I did." The technologist says, turning her head to partially face Desimus. "I have no quarrel with you, Desimus. You were... in the wrong place, at the wrong time."

 

[Hand of Vecna]

"Charm? Why, I don't know what you mean..."

[[ Bluff Check 10 (on d20) + 4 ranks + 3 Cha = 17 ]]

Nathan manifests Charm Person again, with the Extended Power metapsionic feat again.

[[ Will Save DC is 19 (on d20 roll) + 3 (Cha modifier) + 1 (for 1st-level Power) = 23 (woo-hoo!) ]]

 

[Jarval]

Jansson, baffled as to what most of the devices might do, carefully puts all of Tori'shel's equipment into his backpack. He also takes out one of the potions of cure light wounds and gives it to Nathan.

He loads Tori'shel's pistol and tucks it into his belt.

"I'm not sure whether we should disable the golem, or let Niko have a look at it. It could turn out to be useful." Jansson says. "But if Jirlai is about, we should get back to the others as quickly as possible."

Jansson turns to face Tori'shel. "One wrong move and I shoot you." He taps the pistol at his belt as he says this. "I don't want to kill you, but you've already almost taken the life of one of my friends."


Did Jansson take Tori'shel's watch?

 

[Zhure]

Osius

Osius gently pokes the golem with his morningstar. "Only way I know to disable this thing is to smash it apart. Should I?"

 

[Hand of Vecna]

Nathan smacks his forehead, since Jansson's threat more thna likely broke any charm of his that Tori'shel may have fallen under... [[ well, it gives her a +5 bonus to her save ]]

He then quaffs the potion of cure light wounds.

[[ 1d8+1 = 3 hp regained; Nathan is now at 10/16 hp ]]

 

[GnomeWorks]

Nathan
"Charm? Why, I don't know what you mean..."

[[ Bluff Check 10 (on d20) + 4 ranks + 3 Cha = 17 ]]

Tori'shel gets a 16.

The technologist doesn't comment.

Nathan manifests Charm Person again, with the Extended Power metapsionic feat again.

[[ Will Save DC is 19 (on d20 roll) + 3 (Cha modifier) + 1 (for 1st-level Power) = 23 (woo-hoo!) ]]

[[ well, it gives her a +5 bonus to her save]]

Manifester check - 5.

There are a few purple and metallic-grey sparks around Tori'shel.

She looks to Nathan, an eyebrow raised. "If you are not trying to charm me, then tell me what just happened."

Jansson
"One wrong move and I shoot you." He taps the pistol at his belt as he says this. "I don't want to kill you, but you've already almost taken the life of one of my friends."

Tori'shel laughs. "Go ahead!" She says. "End it!"

Did Jansson take Tori'shel's watch?

It wasn't on her when you searched her. It's on the ground near her.

 

[Jarval]

Jansson scoops up the watch and puts it in the pack along side the rest of Tori'shel's gear. He rolls his eyes at her comment. "Has anyone got anything we can gag her with?"

He shrugs at Osius' question. "Don't know. Up to you really. But be careful, it might fight back."

"Right, who wants to help me carry Tori'shel? If she's not going to be helpful, I'm not untying her feet."

 

[Zhure]

Osius

"Drag her."

Osius winds up for a full swing at the construct. with power attack, +3 to hit, 1d8+7 damage

 

[Jarval]

Re: Osius

"Drag her."

"Alright then." Jansson takes hold of the technologist's feet and starts heading back to the Yuan-ti village.
