[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Spoiler

Mika, you've not quite mastered multiple actions. You're using 3 actions, so right away you subtract 3 dice from your dice pool. Then on subsequent actions, you subtract another one.

You have 11 Canalize dice. Subtract 3, then 4, then 5. So you have 8/7/6 dice on that.

Drifloon is using 4 actions, so his dice are 7/6/5/4.



Alolan Marowak Round 1

Wide Guard 1
(3)(5)(6)(2)(2)(2) (5)(3)
Nathan's team was protected!

Hydro Pump 1
(6)(4)(1)(4)(1)(2)
(5)(2)(5)(6)(5)(4) (1)(2) Marowak takes 6 dmg 1/7hp -3 pain


That blast was enough to spin Marowak around and make him slow down to the back of the party.

Shadow Ball 1 on Starmie
4 Dex + 5 Fight + 4 Canalize -3 actions = 10d6
(5)(6)(1)(4)(5)(4) (4)(1)(6)(1) Critical hit
6* Str + 3 power + 1 stab -3 vit +2 crit -3 Wide Guard = 6d6+1
(5)(2)(2)(4)(1)(2) Starmie takes 3 dmg -1 pain
CD: (2)

Confuse Ray 1
(2)(1)(4)(6)(6)(1) (3)(1)
Marowak A became confused. He still has 1/7hp and -3 pain.

Gust 1
(2)(4)(2)(4)(1)(1) (4)
6 damage dice -3 vit = 3d6
(6)(4)(1) Marowak B takes 2 dmg  5/7hp -1 pain

The wounded Marowak puts a curse on Starmie! The mysterious attack is unaffected by Herolune's defense of the party.
Endeavor 1
(4)(3)(5)(6) Starmie takes 3 dmg 1/7hp -3 pain

Potion used. Starmie is now at 5/7hp -1 pain.

These Cubone don't have many attacks that can harm you through Wide Guard, Levitate, Ghost type, and Flying type.
One Flings a Bone Club, which Herolune snatches out of the air before it can hit Nubi.
The rest throw Bonemarangs underneath or pass right through the ghosts.

Wide Guard 2
(1)(5)(6)(2)(6)
Nathan's team is protected!

Hydro Pump 2
(2)(2)(4)(2)
(6)(5)(4)(4)(2)(5) (3)(4) Marowak C faints.

Shadow Ball 2 on Starmie
(3)(4)(1)(4)(4)(3) (1)(3)(4)
10* dmg dice, -3 vit, -3 wide guard
(6)(5)(3)(1) Starmie takes 3 dmg 2/7hp\
CD: (1)

Hex 2
(3)(2)(1)(3)(3)(6) (4)
(4)(1)(2) Marowak A faints.

Gust 2
(5)(1)(2)(6)(4)(1)
(6)(4)(5) Marowak B takes 3 dmg 2/7hp -2 pain

Another curse flies out from the wedge.

Endeavor 2 on Herolune
(6)(5)(5)(1)
(2)(5)(4)(5)(4) Herolune takes 4 dmg

That's it, that's all they can hurt you with even if they crit.

Bubble Beam 3
(4)(6)(3)(3)
(6)(4)(5)(5)(5)(4) Marowak B faints and is washed into the ditch.

Drain Punch 3
(3)(5)(4)(4)
(6)(1)(6)(6)(3) Marowak D takes 3 dmg 4/7hp -1 pain.
Herolune gains 1 hp so he's down 3hp now.

Alolan Marowak has reached Drifloon and is running around and around, until suddenly he cartwheels right up into the balloon Pokemon.
Flame Wheel 3
(5)(3)(5)(6)(1)(3) (6)
(5)(4)(3)(2) Drifloon takes 2 dmg -1 pain
CD: (3)

Hex 3
(4)(2)(3)(3)(3)(4)
(4) Marowak D takes 1 dmg 3/7hp -2 pain.

Ominous Wind 3
(3)(1)(3)(6)
(5)(6)(4) Marowak D faints.

Marowak E can't harm you, but seeing its four fainted compatriots it begins keening a ballad to mourn the fallen.

Perish Song 3
(5)(1)(4)

This will affect Marowak E, Starmie, Herolune, the two ghosts, and Alolan Marowak, who begins fighting all the harder, like a berserker surrounded by hopeless numbers. It doesn't work on humans under normal circumstances.

You can also tell that some of the warriors heard the song - not enough to be affected, but they look very uncomfortable and keep shooting glances at your part of the battle and shifting their mounts as far away as they can. They've probably seen this happen before - and now you know why they don't try to drive away the Marowak who always follow them.

Bubble Beam 4
(3)(6)(6)
(5)(4)(4)(4)(1)(1) Marowak E takes 4 dmg 3/7hp -2 pain
CD: (3)

Drain Punch 4
(3)(1)(6)(5)
(4)(3)(6)(5)(6) Marowak E faints as Herolune drains his vitality, restoring 2 hp. His wounds are almost all healed, or faded to bruises and scratches.

From here, we'll leave it up to Spira, for only the Fire/Ghost Marowak is conscious!

(So subtract total actions from the first accuracy dice pool then 1 more dice from each one after that?)

"Come back Nubi and Luna!"

"Go Toya" Toya is exerting his pressure (A-Marowak's Will is halved, rounded down)

Spira then throws a pokeball at the A-Marowak as hard as he can (Spending 1 Will to add a success, if it's not too much for my character to handle, and if it's possible)

(Correct!)

You can actually throw a Pokeball during the previous round - I'll count that first, then you can do another for this round after you submit orders.

Pokeball seal strength: (1)(6)
Marowak's Will: (6)(3)(2)(3)(2)(1) (5)(2)(2)(5)

Marowak shatters that Pokeball; please delete it from inventory. His fires are still high. It will be almost impossible to catch him in a normal Pokeball at this point.


I'd say Nathan is far enough away to recall those Pokemon without attracting attention.

"Toya! use Shadow Punch, then use Thunder punch on Marowak!"

Shadow Punch:

Accuracy: Dex+Fight+Brawl-2 Actions=11D6
Damage: Strength+2+STAB=6D6
Notes: Never fail

Thunder Punch:
Accuracy: Dex+Fight+Brawl-2 Actions=10D6
Damage: Strength+3= 6D6
notes: 1CD to paralyze

Mechanics: If Marowak has less than 1/3 of its health left (rounded down) or paralyzed Spira will throw another Pokeball.

Alolan Marowak Round 2

Initiative: (6)

Shadow Punch 1
(6)(6)(6)(3)(3)(3) (3)(4)(1)(4)(5) Critical hit.
(6)(2)(1)(4) Alolan Marowak takes 3 dmg 5/8hp -1 pain

Shadow Ball 1
(5)(5)(6)(4)(5)(4)(5)(1)
(6)(6)(6)(1)(3) (5)(1) Dusknoir takes 5 dmg 7/12hp (or does he have damage already?)

Thunder Punch 2
(4)(3)(2)(6)(2)(1) (5)(5)(5)(2) Critical hit
(6)(6)(1)(2) Marowak takes 2 dmg 3/8hp -2 pain
CD: (6) Marowak was paralyzed!

Pokeball: (1)(3)
Will: 10, -2 pain, -1 paralysis = 7d6
(6)(2)(4)(6)(5)(5)(1)
That shatters another Pokeball.

Shadow Ball 2
(5)(2)(5)(5)
(4)(6)(6)(1)(6) Dusknoir takes 5 dmg 2/12hp - 2 pain

Shadow Ball 3
(4)(4)(4)
(6)(5)(4)(3)(4) Dusknoir faints.
