[S] Lavira: Become the TRUE Dragon Slayer

\-==START==-/
LAST TIME ON SCRATCHSTUCK...
Lavira_Dyenus
I just finished an extremely fruitful alchemy session
creating the WRATH OF THE ELEMENTS
and the CANARY OVERCOAT
Very good indeed. I equip this new armor and, seeing as I have very little grist remaining, finish my alchemy. I return to the robot and tell them,
"I'm ready to proceed"
Sorodin
"alright. we just break through this wall, and all hell breaks loose."
"get ready."
Lavira_Dyenus
"Of course I am ready"
I switch to water mode, an idea hatched in my mind, and resume drilling with the robots until we break through
Sorodin
The mining robots all retreat, except for the three suicide bombers in the front.
The last three all start mining, causing the whole wall to come crumbling away!
Lavira_Dyenus
I retreat to a safe distance, too
Sorodin
On the other side is a giant dragon that looks something like
https://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/seraphina/images/b/b2/Dragonseraphina.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20...
this.
Lavira_Dyenus
This...
This shall be a wonderful battle
Sorodin
It's sitting in the center of a giant cavern, presumably hollowed out by the beast itself.
Upon seeing you come in, it immediately turns and spews flames at you!
You and three of the combat bots roll out of the way, but the miners and two of the combat bots get nailed.
Roll Initiative!
Lavira_Dyenus
"I'll take on this beast! Provide me with cover!"
!roll 1d20+7 initiative
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+7 --> [ 1d20=10 ] | {17}
Sorodin
!roll 1d20+2
Kaiserbot[Dice]

Sorodin
!roll 1d20+5
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=7 ] | {12}
Sorodin
The order is such.
!roll 1d20+5
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=13 ] | {18}
Sorodin
Combat Bot 1 -> Dragon -> Combat Bot 2 -> Lavira -> Bot 3
Bot 1 immediately rushes up, charging the dragon, before initiating what looks like a force field!
The Dragon, intrigued by this new thing, does the natural thing and attempts to smash it.
!roll 1d20+11
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+11 --> [ 1d20=6 ] | {17}
Sorodin
!roll 3d8+8
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 3d8+8 --> [ 3d8=14 ] | {22}
Sorodin
It manages to crack the field, but doesn't break it.
Your turn.
Lavira_Dyenus
I run up to the dragon and warn the robots,
"Protect yourselves! I am about to flood the area!"
Sorodin
The one with the forcefield looks concerned, but gives you a thumbs up,
Lavira_Dyenus
I raise the Wrath of the Elements and imagine the raging sea and its unquenchable fury before unleashing a FLOOD
!roll 3d4 duration
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 3d4 --> [ 3d4=7 ] | {7}
Lavira_Dyenus
for 7 turns
Sorodin
From the tunnel behind you, a giant wave of water comes crashing down from seemingly nowhere!
Within seconds, the entire chamber is completely flooded!
Lavira_Dyenus
I swing the Wrath of the Elements inside the water and turn it Toxic
17 vs. FORT of the dragon
Sorodin
A trail of goopy purple water follows your sword around, quickly spreading to the rest of the area!
The dragon coughs and weezes, and is now Poisoned!
Lavira_Dyenus
I swim in front of the dragon and attempt to grab its attention away from the robots by intimidating it
"I am in control of the elements, beast. With them at my side, you will perish one way or another"
!roll 1d20+2 intimidation
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+2 --> [ 1d20=15 ] | {17}
Sorodin
The beast snarls at you. You have it's attention, for now!
Lavira_Dyenus
end turn
Sorodin
-1 to attack rolls for the dragon.
Bot 2, unburdened by the water charges at the Dragon, guns blazing!
!roll 3#1d20+7
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 3#1d20+7 -->  | [ 1d20=14 ]{21}, [ 1d20=15 ]{22}, [ 1d20=5 ]{12}
Sorodin
And hits about 2/3rds of his shots!
!roll 2#3d6+7
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#3d6+7 -->  | [ 3d6=11 ]{18}, [ 3d6=13 ]{20}
Sorodin
(whoops, bot 2 was supposed to go first. Whatever.)
Bot 3 does the same, taking fewer shots.
!roll 2#1d20+7
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#1d20+7 -->  | [ 1d20=17 ]{24}, [ 1d20=20 ]{27}
Sorodin
But hits both just the same, one even hitting in the eye!
!roll 2#3d6+7
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#3d6+7 -->  | [ 3d6=13 ]{20}, [ 3d6=14 ]{21}
Sorodin
It then rolls to a stop inside Bot 1's forcefield.
Bot 1 spends a turn reinforcing the forcefield. You notice that it happens to be the one who had a cut on his face, and realize that if that forcefield breaks, he's fucked.
The Dragon takes a few swipes at you in quick succession!
!roll 2#1d20+10
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#1d20+10 -->  | [ 1d20=6 ]{16}, [ 1d20=12 ]{22}
Sorodin
!roll 2#1d20+10
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#1d20+10 -->  | [ 1d20=11 ]{21}, [ 1d20=10 ]{20}
Sorodin
But misses both times, barely.
Lavira_Dyenus
neither hit thanks to disadvantage
Sorodin
Lavira's turn.
Lavira_Dyenus
I back up 20 feet from the dragon and perform a grappling lunge
!roll 1d20+14 Underwater Warrior
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+14 --> [ 1d20=20 ] | {34}
Lavira_Dyenus

Lavira_Dyenus
CRITICAL POWERSTRIKE!
!roll 5d8+17+2d6
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 5d8+17+2d6 --> [ 5d8=28 ][ 2d6=5 ] | {50}
Lavira_Dyenus
crit (50 * 2) = 100 damage
Sorodin
You deal a MASSIVE STRIKE to the Dragon's underbelly, and it roars out in pain as the water nearby turns a gross shade of red!
Lavira_Dyenus
6/7 Flood turns remaining
end turn
Sorodin
Bot 2 takes out a long blade and goes for a followup strike on the Dragon while it's off-balance!
!roll 1d20+8
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+8 --> [ 1d20=9 ] | {17}
Sorodin
But is repelled by the Dragon's claws, getting knocked back a bit.
Bot 3 sets up a shot from inside the safety of the forcefield and holds his breath...
Bot 1 fixes the forcefield up to full.
The Dragon rears up, and for a second you can see the faint shape of a body on top of it! It looks like this is no wild invasion!
Lavira_Dyenus
"Who are you upon the dragon?" I shout
Sorodin
There is no response but the flash of steel as the dragon swipes at you!
!roll 2#1d20+11
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#1d20+11 -->  | [ 1d20=8 ]{19}, [ 1d20=16 ]{27}

!roll 2#1d20+11
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#1d20+11 -->  | [ 1d20=13 ]{24}, [ 1d20=8 ]{19}
Sorodin
And misses twice once more.
Dammit.
Your turn.
Lavira_Dyenus
I back up 20 feet once more and perform another grappling lunge
!roll 1d20+14 Underwater Warrior
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+14 --> [ 1d20=19 ] | {33}
Sorodin
Wow your luck today
Lavira_Dyenus
POWERSTRIKE!
!roll 5d8+17+2d6
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 5d8+17+2d6 --> [ 5d8=19 ][ 2d6=5 ] | {41}
Sorodin
You manage to land another sweet blow to it's hind legs, causing it to howl out in pain!
But it keeps fighting!
Lavira_Dyenus
I shout once more, "Who are you upon the dragon?"
"Answer me or I will be forced to kill it!"
Sorodin
Bot 2 replies to this one.
"Slice now, ask questions later! We can't afford to lose this!"
Lavira_Dyenus
"I will not allow us to lose this battle, do not worry"
"But I must know who is riding this beast"
5/7 Flood turns remaining
end turn
Sorodin
Bot 2 lines up another shot and fires.
Sorodin
!roll 1d20+8
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+8 --> [ 1d20=20 ] | {28}
Sorodin
And crits it!
!roll 3d6+8
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 3d6+8 --> [ 3d6=15 ] | {23}
Sorodin
He then initiates another forcefield.
Bot 3 fires his shot!
!roll 1d20+10
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+10 --> [ 1d20=15 ] | {25}
Sorodin
!roll 6d6+8
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 6d6+8 --> [ 6d6=17 ] | {25}
Sorodin
But it doesn't land with as much force as he had hoped.
Bot 1 reloads!
The Dragon, running out of breath, swims above the water.
It's then that the rider speaks.
Or as close as you can get to speaking.
A series of ear-piercing howls, clicks, and screeches comes from above water.
Roll Sanity.
Lavira_Dyenus
!roll 1d20+1
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+1 --> [ 1d20=8 ] | {9}
Sorodin
It penetrates your skull, and you feel a dull throbbing in your head. Take -1 to attack rolls for the next 3 turns!
Bot2: "What the FUCK?"
Sorodin
The Dragon dives back down, and chomps away at the forcefield set up by Bot 1!
!roll 2#1d20+11
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#1d20+11 -->  | [ 1d20=20 ]{31}, [ 1d20=3 ]{14}
Sorodin
oh shit
you got lucky
It hits anyway, being a static target but damn
!roll 3d8+8
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 3d8+8 --> [ 3d8=10 ] | {18}
Sorodin
The forcefield cracks over once more!
The dragon then steps back into a defensive position.
Your turn.
Lavira_Dyenus
"Allow me to correct myself. I think I know who or what the rider might be, however, we must still kill it"
I back up 20 feet from the dragon and perform another grappling lunge
!roll 1d20+13 Underwater Warrior with -1 penalty
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=3 ] | {16}
Sorodin
Miss.
You're knocked aside by the dragon's front legs.
minor?
Lavira_Dyenus
I Charge in front of the force field, ready to protect it
4/7 Flood turns remaining
end turn
Sorodin
Bot 2 runs under the forcefield as well, and charges up a shot.
Bot 3 fires a quick one off at the Dragon.
!roll 1d20+8
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+8 --> [ 1d20=2 ] | {10}
Sorodin
But it misses badly.
Rip.
Bot 1 spends a turn hastily fixing up the forcefield.
!roll 1d20
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=11 ] | {11}
Sorodin
But doesn't get as much done as he would have liked.
The Dragon looks towards you guys, and attempts to BREATHE FIRE, but being flooded, it only produces a warm current. It's still very hot though.

rolled 1d20+11 --> [ 1d20=14 ] | {25}

Sorodin
Take 14 damage.
The forcefield cracks more. One more good blow could finish it off!
Your turn once more.
Lavira_Dyenus
"Those of you who aren't at risk of taking damage from the water, retreat to the other force field for now. I will do my best to protect this force field and the robot inside"
I back up 20 feet and perform a grappling lunge again
!roll 1d20+13 Underwater Warrior with -1 penalty
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=19 ] | {32}

Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 5d8+17+2d6 --> [ 5d8=25 ][ 2d6=6 ] | {48}
Sorodin
You give it another slash, this time up by the neck!
As you get closer, you can see that the rider is indeed one of those weird wereboar thing, but like, on steriods!
He's absolutely fucking huge!
Lavira_Dyenus
I back up to position myself in front of the damaged force field
3/7 Flood turns remaining

Bot 1 hastily repairs the forcefield once more!
!roll 1d20
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=3 ] | {3}
Sorodin
But doesn't get much done!
The Dragon decides to go with a swipe of it's tail at you, trying to hit everyone!
!roll 1d20+11
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+11 --> [ 1d20=3 ] | {14}
Sorodin
!roll 1d20+11
Kaiserbot[Dice]

Rest in pieces rapier.
Lavira_Dyenus
I immediately rush to grab the rapier again, Charging toward it if need be

Sorodin
Bot 1 continues
!roll 1d20
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=12 ] | {12}
Sorodin
Tragic.
It does okay this time.
The Dragon swims over, then goes for another Fire attack targeting you and the cracked forcefield, since that worked so well last time!
!roll 2#1d20+11 vs REF
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 2#1d20+11 -->  | [ 1d20=2 ]{13}, [ 1d20=1 ]{12}

==AND SORO DECIDED "FUCK THIS, SHE'S TOO STRONG"==

.
.
.

just kidding.

Sorodin
You lop the dragon's head off with one fell swoop! The wereboar, realizing that he's fucked, takes out some sort of pilfered device from his belt and vanishes in a puff of smoke. The mount dissolves into grist! Take 3000 EXP.

==END==
