Cautious Exploration (Day 8 Late Morning)

[Faily]

Another zoinks, another felled fixer droid.

[Byron Mik]

Byron drew his ancient sword and settled into a standard Soresu stance as he allowed the Force to flow through him, heightening everything in slow motion... he was ready.

OOC: Maneuver to Draw Ancient Sword, granting him melee Defense 1 and now Sense Upgrade against 1 attack, since he will use his Action to Commit 1 Force die to sense. If attacked he will spend a Destiny to upgrade the attack.

Melee Defense 1, 1 Upgrade from Sense, Soak 4, no Strain damage.

[Faily]

Seeing as Byron was a threat with his weapon drawn, one of the guardian droids advanced on him with his club-like weapon. The lumbering droid managed a hit to penetrate the young man's defenses, but its own limbs seemed to suffer from the connection of the blow.

---

Guardian Droid vs Byron. 2 upgrades and 1 setback: 2eP+2eA+2eC+1eS 1 success, 1 threat


Maneuver to Engage, Action to Attack. 8 Damage before Soak. 1 Threat used to give 1 Strain (Wound in this case as no Strain ohohoho).

[Byron Mik]

Byron reacted quickly interceding with his blade, and then kicking the droid back turning what could have been a solid vicious injury into nary a scratch...

OOC: Parry for 4 for 3 strain, Soak 4, no damage.

[Faily]

The remaining fixer droid bleeped with indignation and zapped out a bolt of blaster towards the first hostile; Zanja.


----

Minion group 1 against Zanja: 1eP+2eA+2eD 4 successes, 2 threat


Action shoot (in Engaged, so Zanja gets a Boost to attack it on her turn). 9 damage before Soak. 2 Threats give Zanja a Boost.

PC up next!

[O'vala Aeser]

(ghosted)

O'vala was quick to step forward to halt the progress of the other guardian droid, and landed a quick Ataru strike on it. Sparks flew off its casing from the brunt of her saber.


----

Ghosting O'vala against Guardian Droid. Boost from Silas: 2eP+2eA+1eB+2eD+1eS 2 successes


Maneuver to draw weapon, maneuver to engage (2 strain). 8 Stun damage before Soak.

[Faily]

The other fixer droids directed their blasters against the other hostile, Silas.

Action to shoot. 8 damage before Soak to Silas. Boosting next droid.

Last PC slot is up.

[Eir]

Eir let her datapad drop, hoping it wouldn't break, she didn't want to have to buy another. Igniting her saber she moved on the droid that had attempted to strike Byron but, since Auratera, she'd lost confidence, and the saber skimmed by without connecting.

[Faily]

The guardian droid responded in kind to O'vala's attack, hitting her back with a heavy thud from its club. It was enough to slow her down a little.

---

[Byron Mik]

Byron drew his training saber in his offhand, emitting a soft green glow from the weapon's light as he he wove a a defense of ancient steel and light he struck quickly and smirked... he could get used to this.

He shouted, "O'vala, I am coming!"

OOC: Maneuver to draw offhand weapon and maneuver to Aim for 2 strain, hit for a total of 8 wounds. Sense for 1 upgrade with Melee Defense 1, will use a Destiny if attacked. Strain 5 since he aimed this round.

Lightsaber - 2 weapon Fighting + Aim + destiny + player Boost: 3eP+1eA+2eB+1eS+3eD 3 successes

[Faily]

It was a solid blow, but not enough to fell the big droid.


---

Guardian Droid #1 soaks 4 of the damage, and has taken 5 in total (1 from the strain inflicted previously).

PC up

[Zanja]

“Ow! Hey!” Zanja snarled and licked out with her saber, shorting out the droid that had just zapped her. She kicked it away from her feet and tugged a stim pack out of her belt pouch.

[Eir]

Seeing Byron land a solid hit, Eir pressed the attack, hoping that a focused front would bring the droid down.


---

HIT for 10 before Soak.

No defense/upgrades.
Soak: 4
Strain: 1 (of 13)

[Faily]

Parts of the droid's casing broke down from the impact of Eir's hit, but it wasn't quite done yet and it swung its weapon in a wide arc that hit Byron again. It didn't seem to change tactics much.

Byron once again was quick as everything moved in slow motion and he deflected the attack away from his body with both weapons as he raised them into an X, kicking it back from making a more lethal blow.

OOC: Parry for 4, for 3 strain and Soak 4 for no damage. Total strain is now 8.

[Silas Myles Pearson]

These things certainly did sting, stepping forward Silas took a moment to aim before swinging at the droids. He didnt manage to hit, but he did distract them.
