Canpaign of Jokers

And the final Beekeeper Leg Hive just sends Sparks to the bee swarm.

Spoiler:

(Now for gears turn... 7/9 you're at 30 HP, cause I decided to just go with all of you being at full health for this fight.)

((Bots can't be weakened))
Gears lands the cart, but before he can get out his head drops limp and his eyes glow a bright green. After a few moments of this, Gears' head snaps back up, his eyes fade to their normal coloration, and he leaps onto the robot's back.
((Mystery Start of Turn Saving Throw: 4. Right on, dice. Right on.))
((Assuming Gears still gets his turn? +10 Daredevil's Rush))

Spoiler:

((17 PiPs, 65 hitpoints, Feels not at all conflicted with teaming up with the thing he just messed up))

(Good News: nothing happens to gears, yet... And I allow the self healing stuff, cause I've decided I'm going to somehow get the Beekeeper out of battle. Bad News: He'll need to do another saving throw at the start of his next turn, and if he fails this one, bad stuff happen.)

Next the worker bees gift Ivana with 4 pips...

Followed by the Smooze throwing a bit of itself at everyone... Everybody must make a saving throw with a -5 penalty, other then Gears cause he doesn't feel himself effected by this, if you fail this roll, make a saving roll at the start of your turn.

Next the first of the beehive legs are gooed and the Beekeeper says bees a few times, what Gear's hears is:

Spoiler:

(OOC: Each turn the Beekeeper is going to lose a one of it's four turns starting now. Ending with transfer of control of the Worker Bees to Gears...

Smooze: Blinded

Beekeeper: Slowly failing...

Worker Bees: 18 bees (one HP each)
PiP: 13 )

Roll: Saving throw
Roll(1d20)-5:
2,-5
Total:1 (or -3)
Oh hell.

(Because you hit the negative you forfit your second, "start of turn" saving throw. Now you do your turn as normal... Best of luck to the rest of you gain.)

Klaus spits out some goo that had gone into his mouth, but unlucky some of it went down his throat.

Turn start (HP=30 PIPs=6 Status: Griffon form, Smoozed)
Klaue starts rolling around and shouting to Quarrel.
"Some of it got in my **** mouth. Kill the ******* thing."
[+2] Friendly Encouragement
Turn End (HP=30 PIPs=8 Status:Griffon form, Smoozed)

Save: 13 + 3 -5 = 11. So, Ersa passes.

The Phoenix was able to shake off the goo before any of it could get inside of her.

Quarrel rolls her eyes. "Like I needed to to tell me th-ACKBBTH!" After she was quite done gagging and coughing from the piece of Smooze that ended up stuffed down her throat, she says hoarsely (haha), "Funny. He tastes like pineapples covered in dryer lint."

Turn start (Hp=30 PIPs=5 Status: weakened, gather energy)
Ersa bats the smooze goo away with her wing and a sheet of flame which passes over Grinding Gears harmlessly.
[+3] Empty Encouragement
Flip a coin. If heads, target ally (GG) can make a saving throw at a +1 bonus. (Coin flip: heads.)
[-7] Wild Abandon
For the rest of the battle you deal an extra 2d6 damage and you suffer Vulnerability 3.
Save vs Weakened: 10 + 3 = 13. Success.
Turn end (Hp=30 PIPs=1 Status: Wild Abandon)

((Saving throw - 17 - 5 = 12. Made it))

((Save throw for smooze stage 2: 11 (10+1) Got Item?))

For the Ghost the smooze goo just passed threw him, but on some level he knew might've latched on and infected even him.

Quietkal wrote:((Save throw for smooze stage 2: 11 (10+1) Got Item?))

(Wait for your turn... But I'll allow it now. Your infection goes down a level. Just don't roll at the start of your turn...)

Turn start (Hp=44 PIPs=5 Status: ghostly)
Scroll, doing his usual ghosty thing, dives forward to possess the Smooze. (Possession, -5 PiPs)

Turn end (Hp=43 PIPs=0 Status: Like purple butter)

The Smooze Laughs as the ghost was then ejected out of it's form... But you are sure this effect did something at least to damage the thing.

Ivana says some unkind things regarding the Smooze's parentage, and tells it to perform an impossible act upon itself that would likely end in pregnancy.

Next two of the working hive legs summon 13 more bees between eachother.

And again the Minion Blob seems to do nothing, but just say "Listen up!" again.

(worker bees: 31 bees (1 HP each)
pips: 13

[Saving Throw: 9. Darn.]

Assuming Quarrel keeps her turn, she sidles up to the Smooze. "I'm pretty sure your blobby minion is about to betray you. Don't let it: strike now."

Spoiler:

The Smooze like with the possession the ghost tried before, the huge blob of goo seems to just shake it off... But it seemed to harm it somewhat.

Obviously this wasn't helping. Ivana pulled out a strange sphere and hurled at at the Smooze. The device made an irritating sound, attracting a massive cloud of bats that swooped in and attacked what they believed was making the noise... namely, the Smooze and its minions.

Saving Throw: 4-5 = -1

Cloud of Bats: 1d8 = 8 damage to Smooze and minions

Ivana: 30+5 HP, 7 PiPs, Status: Smooz'd
Cloud of Bats: 40 HP, 3 PiPs, Status: Fine

The Smooze reacts by spawning another minion blob... And one of them gets harmed, but is not destroyed.

The last leg hive just gifts 8 pips to the bee swarm.

(Worker Bees: 31 bees
pip: 21)

Beekeeper wrote:"Dam this evil goo... I will not let it effect my systems again, auto self-destruct of Leg1 preformed, other leg-hive systems slowly failing... Preparing transfer of worker bee control now. Unknown time till all legs unable to funtion."

"You'd...sacrifice yourself?" Gears looks down before looking at the Smooze with rage. "Not if we can do anything about it!"
((-10 Royal Command: GG, Ersa, Scroll, Klaue, Ivana take an additional action now. +1d8 if it deals damage.))
((+1 Fireball))
Gears pulls a bouncing device out of his saddlebags and chucks it at the large goo.

Spoiler:

((8 PiPs, 65 hp, Smooze level: 0?))

Ivana struggles with her Smooze, her words creating a bad chord with the larger blob.

---

Draw Blood: 1 Ongoing Damage
Ivana Status: 30+5 HP, 10 PiPs, Status: Smooz'd

Scroll uses his ghostly powers to syphon life from the Smooze. (Syphon life, +1)

((4+5=9 damage))

Turn end (Hp=45 PIPs=1)
