IMPOCALYPSE

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.

FRIDAY - NOON, THE GREAT BURGER

[idolpro]

[ The great wall of black fire burns through the streets, and you're left on this side of the wall—you see the great dragon split into two, and while one heads to the direction of Alfred's Tea Room, the other is heading to you, flying circles above and then swooping down.

ROLL 1D6 TO PREVENT YOURSELF FROM GETTING SNATCHED UP BY THE DRAGON CLAWS. If you rolled a 1 you are stolen. Regardless of if you are stolen or not you can take this chance to attack. ]

[ As though things couldn't get worse. Her eyes are still completely black from earlier, though she can, thankfully, see again. Eyes narrowing she prepares for its descent and manages to dodge out of the way with a roll of 4 when it swoops low. And at once tries to aim for its wing to prevent it from lifting up again. Maybe she overestimated how fast it's moving, however.

[ OH HELLO DRAGON.
LONG TIME NO ASS KICK. ]

[ she manages to evade the fire damage (3) and then its claws (4), sliding off to the side and lowering her head to growl at it. she might not be as big as it, but that's not going to stop her from trying to kick its scaley behind. ]

[ TIME TO BUDDY SYSTEM; Duality, Lancelot, Gladio, Challah, Lucifel, Kaguya, & Leviathan. AND THANKS TO GLADIO, SHE IS HYYYYYYYPED. ]

[ all of those she's attached to will feel her excitement on the rise as she dashes at the dragon to grab hold with her tentacles and swipe at it with her claws. ]

[ 4 ^ 6 to hit & 1 2 3 5 5 5 4 2 = 27 damage. ]

[ HOW DARE YOU GIVE DRAGONS A BAD NAME??? He'll evade that attempt on a REAL dragon worth anything, with a 5.

It moves fast though so he misses being able to attack it properly...

[it's demon dragons today?! But unlike yesterday's fiasco, Gladio's on guard and doesn't lose his reaction time to the blast of flames (dodge 4) or the swipe of claws (dodge 6).

Hefting his new greatsword, Gladio uses Quick as a Wink, and activates Bzzt, little sparks of electricity arcing off the blade as he swings at the dragon

roll [6 2 3 6] 2,6,2 dmg : total dmg 20
roll [2 3 2 5] 2,6,6 dmg : total dmg 14
roll [2 2 4 2] 2,6,1 dmg : total dmg 9

... also is there a dragon fighting on their side?! Ok. Sure]

[honoring]

[Lancelot does not manage to completely dodge the flames, although it could be worse ( 2 ) but he grits his teeth through the pain and completely dodges it's attempt to grab at him ( 6 ).

After which he uses warpstrike to land 4 hits with his dual blades.

( 3 3 6 6 ) for a total of ( 18 ) damage.]

[composeur]

[ HE JUST WANTED A BURGER

he manages to dodge the fire (6) easily enough, but he's so proud to have dodged the EVIL BLACK FLAMES that he doesn't even notice the GIANT DRAGON CLAWS

and WHOOP there he goes (1) ]

-- WOAH!? HEY, NO WAY! LET ME DOWN!! I DON'T WANNA PLAY THE DAMSEL IN DISTRESS!! [ all he has is a bow. what a bad time to be not-avante.


but he does have bullshit taisho abilities! time to try to emulate what he did with an imp earlier and da capo this thing to keep flying-- forwards! straight into a building!!! ]

Re: PLAYER (RE)ACTION

[asonoficeandfire]

[he can't avoid the black fire (2), and he's caught along his arms and his shoulders, hissing in pain, though at least trying to roll away from hit prevents him getting snapped up (4). he gets to his feet, ignoring the burn on his skin as he grabs the nearest metal item and shapes it into a spear with Reuse and Recycle.

waiting for the dragon to swoop down again, he tries to hurl it, aiming for the eyes though the target is too small and it misses with (1). he's quick to pick it up and try again, throwing it at one of the dragon's wings instead for a roll of (4 2).]

[ LOVE TO EAT SHIT FROM FIRE AND CORRUPTION (1) but he manages to keep himself from being snatched up—taking the chance, however, to throw two handfuls of knives—eight in total—while he uses picking me apart Again on the motherfucking dragon to see if he can't open wounds, and if not then it works fine as a FUCKING STUN RIGHT

BOSS REACTION

[idolpro]

The dragon, first of all,

just flies facefirst into a fucking building. Thanks Hoshi.

It falls to the ground after and is then most immediately distracted by D.va appearing in its face, and it reels from the two crushing HYPER FRIENDSHIP STRIKES she delivers. Duality manages to lodge a thrown spear into one of its wings - and Lancelot's warpstrike and Lucifel's knives and scarpicking keep it from managing to quite stand back up.

BOSS ACTION

[idolpro]

But like, the thing about buildings is that when their structural integrity is damaged, perhaps by, you know, a dragon made of steel flying into it - they tend to topple over to form a compact pile of rubble as a form of self-defense. The more you know!

Anyway, everyone roll 1d6 to not be struck by falling bits of concrete and metal as a nearby skyscraper collapses onto the battlefield.

Except Duality, Leviathan, and Kaguya, who are all in just the wrong places to get shanked by high speed rebar and Lucifel, who's mom lets him have three high speed rebar impalements!
