Psychie Psychie Dreamy tries to get a feel of the battlefield - what did she know? She knew these were Coalition States Skelebots - these would be vulnerable to Raven's Cyber-knight-bestowed gifts. While she didn't know as much as she wanted, the 2,000+ year-old Altaran knew darned well that nothing robotic fared all that well when the famous Cyber-knights sprang into action.

These Skelebots are not undead, nor are they supernatural creatures. Dreamy feels she has no serious edge like Raven. She could only keep herself safe while shooting these machines until the very last one explodes and stops threatening this magical newcomer...

...and that is a thing Dreamy feels she can do!

Using her terrific speed and stealth, Dreamy tries to Dreamy aim at the most-damaged of the bunch (Skelebot 9) and looses at it - preferably from behind if she can get the shot!

Total Strike Modifier: +12
Total dice damage if successful: 7D6 M.D. (doubled if Critical from Behind is successful).

Blackwood Bow note:
  • Silent Firing: The bow makes no sound when fired. In addition, the arrows make no sound in flight and the arrow makes no noise when they strike their target. Skill rolls to find the archer are at -40% or -8 to perception.

The damaged skeleton robot clutches at its chest as the arrow plunges into it, then it shudders and falls to the ground.

Skelebots 2-4 continue to cut away at the Magic Net. They are making progress but are still trapped.

Rab fires his pistol at #5, catching it in a weak spot in its armor and doing done serious damage to it.

Not to be outdone, little Sylvie scrunches up her face and throws a tiny but powerful ball of fire at the damaged #5, and it falls to the earth.

Skelebots 6-8 turn their attention to Xinyi and try to slag her with laser fire. They will hit unless you dodge.

Eonivar Eonivar is up with Xinyi, and you have a defense to declare.

Click to expand...
Dreamy has lifetimes of discipline that tell her not to give away her position against the enemy. Still, she cannot help but silently mouth the words at the group's smallest little hero, "Nice going, Sylvie!"
 
Xinyi watches the target she dented first with her kick, then it gets shot with something from somewhere else and then blasted by a fire bolt, and just as Xinyi were going to look around to see who else was helping she saw the group of nearby skelebots turn towards her to fire.

Her golden eyes go wide..."Ummm.right"

Xinyi turns and spins as she perceives the shots coming towards she...her body turning in the well trained and familiar motions taught to her since she had hatched. It was almost like watching them move underwater, the moves seemed slow but timed just right as their long hair, cloak, scarves, and robes seemed to flow around them, their golden eyes and freckles seemed to glow as the energy bolts came at them.

Xinyi rolls Automatic Dodge 1D20+10 = 3+10 = 13

But it seemed she was unable to stop all of the incoming fire as her lay line force field flashed gold and disappeared as the hits came, with the remainder of the the lasers then penetrated and contacted her body...she let out an exasperated "Ow!"

(Action)

After the barrage she stopped and glared at the skelebots knowing well that there were others around helping. She began to whisper an incantation in backwards Dragonese as blue energy from the ley line around her coaleses into her body, and for a moment her whole body flashes silver and then the silver sheen fades away.

(Backwards Dragonese) "<em ot marh on od llahs ygrene!>"

She then yells at the Skelebots...(English English) "IF YOU WANT ME! SHOOT AWAY MACHINES!"

OOC Xinyi cast Impervious to Energy on herself, note that the Ley Line Force Field regenerates fully at the beginning of the next melee round.

Raven’s burst hits the bot hard, but it is still up and active. You do notice that other than the Skelebots in the Magic Net, the rest of the robots are struggling to deal with Ravens Cyber Knight powers to confuse modern weapons and robots. The bulk of the enemy are out of actions.

Oleg lobs another grenade and this time it blows up in the middle of robots 5-8.

I'm having Takuma target Skelebot 5 and rolling for him. With a natural 20, he destroys the bot.

Psychie Psychie Dreamy moves in from the shadows as best as she can. Honestly having few other options that have come to her mind, she lets fly on Skelebot #6 with her beloved Blackwood Bow.

Total Strike Modifier: +12
Total dice damage if successful: 7D6 M.D. (doubled if Critical from Behind is successful).

Blackwood Bow note:

Dreamy's arrow flies straight and true and strikes her target, causing even more damage to it.

Skelebots 2-4 continue to shoot off dirty robotic looks as they keep sawing at the Magic Net, trying to get out.

Rab and Sylvie both decide to help out on Skelebot 6, and between the three of you, the robot is destroyed.

Skelebots 7 and 8 give Raven the robotic middle finger since they used up their actions trying to target the Cyber Knight and are now out of attacks.

Xinyi elects to remain out in the open with her imperviousness to energy in place and the golden leyline force field flashing and regenerating, wanting to draw fire away from her new found allies.

She then draws her strange flintlock type pistol, pulls back the hammer, aims at one of the bots that had shot her and fires..its runes lighting up again as a bolt of fire leaves the barrel.

"HEY OVER HERE!!! SHOOT ME!!! THE GIRL WITH THE FIRE PISTOL, AIMED AT YOUR UGLY UNFEELING UNCARING FASCIST ROBOT FACE!!!"

Between Raven's well-placed shot and Oleg shooting a plasma pistol, Skelebot 7 explodes and crumbles into fiery sparks.

Skelebots 10-12 are still suffering from the effects of the Cyber Knight mental powers over machines, and their subroutines are trying to reconfigure the targeting profile for him.

Drawing yet another arrow, Dreamy goes after Skelebot #8 with her Blackwood Bow using the same tactics that have served her well thus far. For the faintest moment, ever-sensitive Dreamy feels a tinge of awareness - the smallest hint of something outside the battle - the sensation of being observed by an outside force. Then, as swiftly as the sensation comes, it fades.

But Dreamy has lived too long to pass off such feelings as mere coincidence. Something has discerned her - while she is using the ancient martial technique called the Art of Stealth. But what, she thinks?

Or perhaps more importantly... whom?
 
Dreamy's arrow hits hard, causing critical damage to it. When Rab sees the stricken bot, he fires the finishing shot at the damaged robot.

Sylvie zips through the air to hover nearby Xinyi's head, and she yells out loud enough to be heard over the laser blasts and explosions, "Hey lady! We're here to help! Run over that way to find our Mountaineer! We'll get you out of here safe, don't worry!"
