HP:3 CND: Fine

Seeing their prey stunned by their attacks, Mateo does not hesitate to press the advantage, ramming the sign into one of the tears in its armor and twisting the improvised weapon.

Skew
HP: 3 | LP: 2 | Cnd: Excited

Wally knew that unless he got Chris's expert advice again he'd be deflecting and redirecting on his own merits (and that was fine).

He prepared himself once again to coordinate portals.
[i'll give 4 instances of deflect and redirect.
deflect then redirect. 4 times: 1D20+8 = [9]+8 = 17
1D20+8 = [14]+8 = 22
1D20+8 = [4]+8 = 12
1D20+8 = [6]+8 = 14
1D20+8 = [3]+8 = 11
1D20+8 = [15]+8 = 23
1D20+8 = [18]+8 = 26
1D20+8 = [13]+8 = 21


#1, 27 to deflect, 22 to hit
#2, 22 to deflect, 14 to hit (likely misses, but a miss doesn't break chain)
#3, 21 to Deflect, 23 to hit
#4, 26 to Deflect, 21 to hit

Any missed Deflect stops the chain. I'll include a Second Chance deflect roll.
second chance deflect: 1D20+8 = [6]+8 = 14
so 24

Jessamine Sinclair of Room 411
HP: 3 | Condition: Acceptable

Whisper stepped out from the relative safety she'd secured herself, looking over the shredded mechanical debris. Either the Phantasms were more potent a resource than she expected, or the testers were underestimating their capabilities. The exact specifics weren't worth the time for her consider, there was a score to be had.

She knew from the murmurs in her mind that an Intrepid-class robot was right outside the building. A fact backed up by the sounds she'd heard outside. "One, make an entrance./Two, three, form up and rush the the machine./Four, bring me down to watch." In the span of a single sentence she issued three commands, carried out without question.

Shattering through the glass, the rest of her phantasms quickly made to follow her orders. Tuu and Fwee would leap straight from the window with the intention of spearing through their already damaged foe, while Foor dutifully picked up it's mistress before scaling down the building through the hole. To a typical observe, it'd almost be like she was floating downward. The young Mage would know otherwise.

"You're doing decent work on your own, I see." Whisper would observe out upon seeing Sloane, even as the phantasms made their strike.

Attacks; 25, 22 DC 17 Will save negate; Toughness DC 17 (potential +2/+5 Multiattack bonus)

Maximilian "Mack" Butler
HP: 1 Status: Normal

"Ow, ow, ow," Mack shakes his fingers before falling into a boxing guard stance at his brother's yell.

Not wanting to hurt his hand again he instead takes a few steps forward and attempts to drop kick the robot, tripping over his own feet in the process.

Dennis Sloane
HP: 3, LP: 2; Condition: Fine

Dennis smiles slyly at Jessamine. "Glad they're on our side," he says motioning his head towards the... whatever they are.
"What do you call them?"

While chatting, Dennis has his head on a swivel watching for other targets.
If the phantasms don't take out the Intrepid, Dennis will attack that.
If they do take it out, Dennis will attack any robots in range that look to be targeting the two of them.
If there are no robots in range, Dennis will ready an action to put up a shield around himself and Jessamine in case of attack
Tellum attack: 1d20+10 23

Allison Carson/ Stormdancer
HP: 2; LP: 1; Condition: Normal

Allison saw the robot turning to face her right about the same instant that one of the boys shouted out a brief warning, and she had almost started to move- when the other girl, the quiet one, dove out of the sky and into the line of fire. Politeness reflex kicked in and she almost, ALMOST, blurted out a "Thanks"...

She managed to hold it in, instead spitting out a quick "Huh"...

Then she drifted sideways just a bit in the air, lining up her shot. Lightning coalesced in the air around her, swirling around her outstretched arm and lancing towards the flying robot.

>OOC: Attacking with Storm Bolt again- if the Defiant that attacked her is still functional, target that one. Otherwise move to about 50 feet away from the other one and target that.

-Storm bolt attack against Defiant 1d20+11 (Power attack 2, +Inspire bonus 5)= 31 (Crit), roll https://orokos.com/roll/963503 ; So a hit, DC 25 Toughness (8 base, 2 PA, 5 Crit)

>Current array, etc. : (
Spoiler
27pp available; 7 from Weather Mastery- Flight +3, +Subtle; 20 from Storm bolt- Ranged damage 8,+Accurate 2, +imp crit x2, +variable descriptor 1, -Diminished range 1). Favored environment bonus to defense; Dodge/Parry +10): Flight 4/ 500 ft per action

Violet:

Valerie squeezes her eyes shut, waiting for the horrible pain of impact... but she barely feels a thing. She opens her eyes again, and for a second she just floats there, not knowing what to think.
"Mack, block! Skew, on the left! Wind girl, look out!"
Then a voice she barely recognizes comes over her commlink and tells her what to do, and she does it, because somebody has to make the decisions! She flies after the Defiant robot and hammers down at it with both fists from above.

Unable to avoid the unexpected attack, the flying robot loses a chunk of its armor shell.

Mesh:

Seeing their prey stunned by their attacks, Mateo does not hesitate to press the advantage, ramming the sign into one of the tears in its armor and twisting the improvised weapon.

However, the metal is already damaged so badly that the sign tears loose the already mangled metal doing no additional damage.

Tuu connects with his target, ripping large claw marks down the side of the wheeled robot that begins moving back to have some room between itself and its newest attacker, an action that allows it to accidentally minimize the damage Fwee would have done as its attack hits on the other side but is unable to fully connect with its attack.

Will DC (17): _: 1D20+5 = [6]+5 = 11. Fails, so it takes damage, and there is a +2 DC bonus thanks to Multiattack.

Toughness DC (19): _: 1D20+4 = [8]+4 = 12, which is a failure by 7 that results in it taking another Bruised Condition (2 total) & Dazed.

Will DC (17): _: 1D20+5 = [1]+5 = 6, definitely a failure and that’s another +2 DC bonus thanks to Multiattack.

Toughness DC (19): _: 1D20+3 = [16]+3 = 19, it actually manages to hang on.

While chatting, Dennis has his head on a swivel watching for other targets and upon seeing the Intrepid backing away from his partners invisible minions points his hand while muttering an arcane phrase that summons forth more of the dangerous swirling energy orbs that 3xpand the hole he'd already made even wider.

Toughness DC (23): _: 1D20+3 = [12]+3 = 15. That’s a failure by 8 which gives it another Bruise (3 total) & it’s now Dazed until after Dennis’ next turn.

The lightning bolt hits right in the area Violet had just smashed open and for a few seconds the flying robot visibly shakes as the massive jolt charges through its frame, causing a line of smoke to leak from the opening.

Luckily for him, the robot is occupied by Sery Cmok and Mesh's attacks.

Sery Cmok (Zoska Vitoldovna Ipatava)
Class: Delta; Room: 509 Byrne House; Hero Points: 3; Current Condition: Fine

Having seen the success of her first blow against the robot, Sery Cmok winds up and does the same again with a wordless shout, her smaller-than-normal fist flying towards it!
OOC wrote: Sery Cmok attacks the robot a second time!: 1D20+8 = [18]+8 = 26

If that hits, it's a DC 23 Toughness Check.

Chris Butler
HP: 3 LP: 4

Chris winced as he watched his brother. "Dude, I told you the dropkick only works on TV." Another vision flashed in his head. Acting on it, he thumped one robot with his fist and then timed a jump to get another robot directly behind him and in the first robot's line of fire.

Sery Cmok:

Your fist slams into the chest region of the robot again then as you pull it free several large chunks of electronics follow and spill to the floor.

The robot shudders as thick, black smoke begins pouring out from the gaping hole you made and the robot's weapons go limp, hanging lifelessly as it shuts down.
