BATTLE MECHANICS

• This is a turn-based fight. PCs will take their turn, the boss will react, and then the boss will take their turn. Players will react and take their turn, and so on and so forth.


• You may take up to six actions in one turn, including dodge. You may attack up to 6 times if you're not dodging, and you can attack even if you are dodging or fail to dodge. If a swing delivers more than one attack (throwing multiple projectiles at the same time) then it's counted as one "action".


• With every strike/blow/attack, .roll 1d6 twice (or !2d6. MAKE SURE TO DO IT THIS WAY BECAUSE NADEKO IS A TRAITOR. The first dice determines whether your attack succeeds or fails, with 1-3 as fail and 4-6 as success. The second dice determines how much damage you inflict on the boss. Please include both numbers with your comment on your turn.


• Roll for every strike, not for every turn. If your character decides to shoot 4 times in succession, roll a 2d6 for every bullet.


• Green text can be dodged, but red text is guaranteed damage. Dodge by using a 1d6, 1-3 as fail and 4-6 as success.


• UNIT ABILITY MECHANICS ARE HERE, but please note: this is not the end-all be-all of how these powers can be used, and these are not the only powers that can be used in a fight, these are just the ones that affect rolls specifically. The session's runner always has the final say, so ask if you want to do something cool but you don't think it's street legal. (It probably is.)

Note: characters that are heavily injured may acquire corruptions. There will be heavy maiming.

EFFECTS LIST

• Black substance, both sticky and acidic
  
  • A sticky substance that seems to cling to everything it touches, and is impossible to pull off. It melts through flesh, but the more it melts, the more it seems to become absorbed. Sufficient absorption of this substance in any capacity (skin absorption, digestion) will result in corruptions that may be permanent. May be removed by severing the affected area, or by bringing the affected area to the deadzone.

[ This is exactly what flying robots are for!! She latches onto her giant kingfisher-bot and hauls herself up, swooping down to catch Angel with a panicky shout ]

Angel!!

[She has Peanut under one arm and her big battle flag in the other and she kinda swims in the air to try and get towards the bot!]

Oh, Shark! Thank you! Are you okay?

[ GRABBING HER

...and actually it's kinda hard to haul someone up onto a bird you're trying not to fall off of, so she's focusing on keeping tight hold of her while they land now ]

I'm gonna have the worst bruise after this.

We'll be very lucky if that's all we get, I think!

[Peanut also has a knife sticking out of it's squishy head, but she'll also cling to said bird, this is a little crazy.]

What a very large mess.

[ Hang on she's just remembered something vital— ]

When we land, grab one of Yosu's wings and pull. You can take them off to use for shields.

Oh, that is very convenient, thank you, Shark and Yosu! If you find yourself missing a weapon at any time, feel free to pick up Peanut and stab someone with it! I added a knife to his head!

[this is much less convenient probably]
