Add my four to my sixteen, but do not use my free pick (which should have regenerated given that last turn I didn't use one) to choose the 20, instead just allow the 20 to be consumed without giving me a miniquest.

If I have to make a second roll apply my free pick to 'chose' the second 20 in my queue. I won't want two 20's to slip by without getting a single miniquest.

"Thank you sir!" Raioyris says with a warm smile to the guard that spotted him but let him through. The guards here sure are nice. I won't be stopping for food though, I must learn what those who have bee prodding and probing my flesh have learned.

Enter research room and plead for the research personnel to let me see the data (and any literature they have generated) they have collected about my artifact. This action could potentially interrupt Turaco's action, sparring him the consequences of that 4 at the front of his queue. ((If let me read the data could I hear about the mechanics my power will have?))

"Sirs, please. You must help me, I have for long slept and labored in near darkness listening to the whispers of a voice born out of, though not native to, my mind. Those years have left me with but a single question: What am I? What is this presence felt so strongly in my mind? I beg of you, answer please."

Archibald would mumble an "Uh oh" and start righting himself in his suit. The seal had been compromised, meaning that even with the filter built into his suit, chances are the poor sod is infected with megaInfluenza. Either that, or there was a high enough dose of spores clogging the filter to mess the poor sod up. Either way, he needed to get them to a medical ward ASAP. If the guard would let him, he would quickly start assisting them in the direction of it, or at the very least the research station.
(Do I get a miniquest? or two?)

(You have to use free pick to get a miniquest for a 20. You didn't have any at the time. You have one now though.

It's supposed to balance out the fact that you can basically build 20's using the combination mechanics.)

Really? I thought that it was the other way around- you had to get a natural 20 for a mini-quest.

(No, you just have to roll it in an action with a free pick. I changed the rules before the game started because I thought it could be abused.
My reasoning is that this way players won't be encouraged to string together 7 or more actions just to fish for 20's in a single turn, thus gaining an advantage over the others. Not that I don't trust players not to abuse the system, I just don't like systems that can be abused.

This also has to do with dice that are randomly positioned such as your own. You could string together multiple actions yourself and get a 20 when you didn't have any previous 20's, since yours are fully random. In other words, you don't even need to reduce your dice count or string together that many actions. You could just go fishing casually. So there's that.)

[TheBiggerFish]

((Say, are we waiting on people?))

((Yes, but I have to go somewhere and i can't roll atm.
I am informed of HEN's schedule, which may make it difficult for him to reply right away when I roll. So there's that.))

Combine the 4 and 10 to form a 14.

Then follow Rayoris to the lab and observe the situation in the lab. If Turaco is in serious danger, then intervene on his behalf. If not, then sneak over through the other hallway.
Oh goodness, the slave is here too? And he's going to the lab? This could get ugly very quickly. Although it is a chance to finally see whether or not he's a true danger.

((Yeah, in the time between roll 1 and roll 2 where I was skipped, I had no chance to even check the site, much less post an action.))

Sir, you failed math. 4+10 = 14. you would need a 2 in order to do that. what you Wanted to do was combine 4 +12.

[inaluct]

Violaceous Turaco pauses mid-dramatic pose to look around the room, assessing the tactical situation. Seeing the woman brandishing a fountain pen at him, he reaches out and arms himself from the materials available on her desk (4) and holds his new weapon (or new office supply, rather) up to the towel and attempts to bluff the occupants of the room, (11) relying on his natural charisma, flair for the dramatic, and dashing entry through the door.

"Step back! I have the towel! One step closer and I'll rip a hole in it and this entire ship will go down in flames! I'm warning you!"

If the people in the room are sufficiently concerned and do not take any action, Violaceous Turaco continues, his cape secretly hoping that some of these people watched his televised shootouts, (17)

"You can have the towel. I'll give it back to you. All I want in return is my cape, a week's worth of food and water, and a shuttle. You can look up my file. I'm Violaceous Turaco. I'm not dangerous. In fact, you'd be doing the world a favor by letting me out."

If the people in the room are not sufficiently concerned about Violaceous Turaco threatening to rip up what he claims is a magic towel and attempt to attack him or alert others, he disarms and incapacitates them in the flashiest non permanently damaging way he can think of. (17) Think standing arm bars and hip tosses into the camera, crushing it. Maybe throw something through the glass around the altar like object, if the opportunity presents itself.

Turn 4

Look innocent, then sucker-taser all of the remaining guards. If any of them live, charge into them before they can fire their tasers and pin them against the wall (getting hit with a taser penalizes your wrestling rolls, right?).

(This takes place chronologically before Archie's action)

[Combat: 17] You nail the next one in the skull. (Defense: 3) He slumps over, dead. Hey! You're getting the hang of this!
[Combat: 10] You nail a second one. (Defense: 9) He gets stunned, and falls to the floor. He might not be dead though. You hit him in the shoulder.

The third guard sees you firing, and shoots back in response.
(Combat + Guard Training: 10+2) He hits you! [Defense: 15] Your body mass absorbs the shock, even at max setting. You wonder how that happened. (You got a 20 in your queue)

[Combat: 16] You finish off the last one, (Defense: 1) Killing him as well. Well, that was a hell of a pushover.

The guard from the hallway is coming back, wielding his weapon, wading through prisoners though not yet firing. The guard at Archie's cell seems to be passed out.

(If you didn't notice, I inverted the accuracy profile for the pistol. I derped and thought that I was using the same system as my other game. I also nerfed its close-range slightly, but it doesn't effect you right now--the action would be the same regardless)

"Sirs, please. You must help me, I have for long slept and labored in near darkness listening to the whispers of a voice born out of, though not native to, my mind. Those years have left me with but a single question: What am I? What is this presence felt so strongly in my mind? I beg of you, answer please."

(Note: This happens chronologically AFTER inaluct's roll)

You enter a calm room with a studying scientist who's studying, a silent clerk being silent, and a hazardous man in a lab suit, handling something hazardous.
The scientist seems to be grinning subtly, as is the clerk.

The clerk stands up when she sees you.
Clerk: There's a jailbreak...
You: Sirs, please. You must help me, I have for long slept and labored in near darkness listening to the whispers of a voice born out of, though not native to, my mind. Those years have left me with but a single question: What am I? What is this presence felt so strongly in my mind? I beg of you, answer please.

The man in the hazardsuit seems to sigh and just carries his stuff over to the lab, which is just ahead. There is another door to the right of this room, labelled OFFICES.

The scientist fturns.
Scientist: Show him. He's the one threatening us, anyway.
Clerk: Threatening...? But he's unarmed.
Scientist: Check his file.

She takes one look at the data they have on you, and then throws herself back on her office chair, rolling to the wall dumbfounded.
That leaves the computer open.

Spoiler: Raioyris' File (click to show/hide)

Raioyris' is the most interesting by far.

First are the pictures of his Knight, which frightened the clerk. There is a sketch by the late Dr. Ornsworth showing most of the details on the knight in frightening accuracy. It's almost like he's a manga artist.
There is a document detailing a theory about Raioyris' human artifact nature. It states that Raioyris is different from other human artifacts in tha he has a human physiology, whereas most "human artifacts" are merely a sort of artificial thinking matter embedded in a human-like shell.
One document brings up the ethical issues of keeping Raioyris imprisoned for something he can't actually control. It firmly rejects the ethical conundrum, stating that because he is an artifact, any dangers posed in the past by his knight were posed by him.

Then there are some strange pictures of purple nebulas. In one clip, a starscape fades away to a purple backdrop over about a minute, flickering into and out of the picture occasionally.
A huge object pans into view. It looks like the sun up close, but it's surrounded by a black void which blurs into the purple nebulascape. It looks kind of like a black hole with a star instead of an event horizon, in terms of the light-warping.

You think you see a floating island in the distance, passing by at a decent rate.

Spoiler: Archie's File (click to show/hide)

A severe biohazard, Archibald Zearsoul was the subject of heavy investigation during his stay. His oxygen supply, isolated from the rest of the atmosphere, is laced with a chemical known as a Nanobiologcal Immunosuppresant Agent. It allows physiological toxins to affect hosts that are otherwise immune by, through the use of artificial proteins, providing an alternate pathway for toxins to enter cells that they normally wouldn't be able to enter.

You find all sorts of specifications and classifications regarding the various parasitic lifeforms living in his body.

There is also a file detailing his artifact, some sort of anomalous spherical object.

Spoiler: Arthur's File (click to show/hide)

Arthur is an above-average sized Space Mushroom, a species known for its psychoactive spores which it can vent into the air at will. These individuals are incredibly rare throughout society, having once been the target of a major genocide during the colonization of their homeworld.
They are immune to their own spores' acute effects, but the spores work on even alien animals, including humans.

Due to security issues, all guards have been injected with a retroviral treatment granting them immunity to Space Mushroom spores. The immunity agent works by blocking the spores' toxin delivery pathway into brain cells, thus allowing the toxin to be absorbed into the bloodstream without any symptoms ocurring.

Spoiler: Alex's File (click to show/hide)

Raioyris seems to have frightened the clerk, who let him use the computer.

He walks closer.
Scientist: What's going on, did you guys take over or something? Why are the guards striking if...

Violaceous Turaco pauses mid-dramatic pose to look around the room, assessing the tactical situation.

Archibald would mumble an "Uh oh" and start righting himself in his suit. The seal had been compromised, meaning that even with the filter built into his suit, chances are the poor sod is infected with megaInfluenza. Either that, or there was a high enough dose of spores clogging the filter to mess the poor sod up. Either way, he needed to get them to a medical ward ASAP. If the guard would let him, he would quickly start assisting them in the direction of it, or at the very least the research station.

You find yourself in the infirmary, halfway down the hall to the cafeteria. Inside there is a nurse cowering in the corner with a knife. When you approach her, she points it at you, telling you to stay back.

Look at the red dice.  See if there's anything different about them.  You know, other than their color.

Inspect the contents of my pocket, just in case.

(Use a 15)archibald would respect the nurse's space, and calmly try to explain the situation.
"I'm sorry nurse, but there are people out there in need of medical attention, possibly quarantine. Please go get some biohazard gear on, and help me get the situation under control!"

Taser that new guard, belly flop onto the unconscious one (use my 20, completing my mini-quest), kill the unconcious guard, and loot a new taser and a needlegun (and some ammo for each) from the dead guards.
