Falken retrieves his spear (1) swaps it for a light pistol (2) and fires it at the dark monster (3).
With a tinny fwhit a light beam arcs out from the pistol, but
6->1 the short-lived radiance of the bolt flies wide of the tall, one-eyed thing. It slithers forward a bit more, and a crossbow bolt flies into its eye from behind Falken. It hesitates.
Spinal Taper sets up one sentry with a weak light pistol, and the other with a crossbow caster. He isn't Swift enough to set up the third one.
The light pistol sentry fires at the dark. 2 It misses.
The crossbow casting sentry also fires. 6->5
3 * 1.5 vs 1
= 3 damage
The spinning bolt catches the monster in the eye, too, but is swallowed in the body of the creature.
((Really, post your character sheet. :S Last warning, from next turn on I'm going to assume you have no stats in anything and have nothing at all :D ))
Ariel 1 sets the two shield disks spinning right into Falken's head, and the other one into her chest.
The wards sparkle, and 1+1 Ariel takes 2 points of damage. Falken is unharmed thanks to his ward.
Flustered, she runs into the shadow just beyond her cube 6->1. As soon as she steps into the shadow, she feels her foot being caught and held by ... something. Something clammy, solid, and which raises goosebumps all over her skin.
She notices her spear sitting in the darkness just out of her reach, mocking her and daring her to take another step into the darkness.
Quara's lightcube shifts a beat too late and illuminates the ground beneath Ariel. Some half-transparent tendrils have formed from the ground and looped around her foot, burying it. They quiver under the light but don't retreat.
4 She scans the feeds from the cubes and notices Jurial, a Warder, neglecting to set them up.
Quara 3 notices that two of the three sentries are now under direct control of SpinalTaper the extractor. She can't control them and use them to see the other foes anymore. The final one that's left pivots at her bidding and quickly scans the entire surroundings but doesn't pick up any other enemies.
Parker is staring into his lighthouse's main screen and looking aghast.
Meanwhile, she notices that Joker is looking quite calm and standing ready to defend the team from the two spider-like things that were approaching. Actually, scratch that "calm" parthe's grinning quite widely.
Jurial 5 stows his railgun in his inventory, plucks out a spear (1) and runs up to the dark creature and stabs it.
6->6->6->5 + 2 vs 5
= 21 / 2 = 10 damage.
He puts all his force behind his powerful jab and pieces the thing through. He braces himself against the dark creature and removes his spear, and retreats back...only to notice that (1) the "wound", which was just a slightly differently colored part of the thing's body, healed halfway, and (2) his feet were tied down.
Parker is facepalming. He mutters something about "Warder trying to act as a Reeler", "Running into the embrace of the tiger without realizing it's the tiger's den," and generally feeling depressed.
