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.

[He caught glimpses of this before while fighting, but this is the first time he's had a chance to really look at her]

Ren...

--Ah, I can-- ask Leviathan, but -- are you okay?!

Hm? Oh-! Yes, I'm uninjured. I just... look like this now.

[She smiles a bit, hoping it's somewhat reassuring. She was still preparing herself for all the worry she would be causing her unit mates.]

It happened before, I guess? When I bit the monster that hurt Pink. I thought I drank enough water and threw up the rest but that didn't seem to be the case.

Ah...

[Amazingly, the substance comes off with water, so that's a big relief. He stands and clutches his wounds, takes a deep breath, considers her.]

You look... just like your mom...

[...ok this actually really hurts though.

he beckons her to follow him over to Levi, but they can keep talking]

[She follows beside him, careful of his condition to make sure he's okay to continue and that he isn't losing too much blood. The smell of it makes her eyes glow blood red, but she's carefully avoiding physically touching him to resist temptation.]

Do I? I mean... she says that all the time anyway, but she'll probably still be upset with me for drinking from that thing. Or upset with herself for not being there to stop it from happening.

[She clasps her hands in front of her, looking up at Cobalt while they talk.]

I hope you'll be okay... that blood that spilled on you... it doesn't smell right. When I tasted their blood before it tasted like acid or garbage or something. It just tasted awful. I can't imagine what it does when it comes into contact with skin.

It sure burned like the dickens... If Leviathan can't fix it... I dunno. Rub deadzone dirt in it...?

[Levi's healing him now! ahhhh it feels so good not to hurt.]

One of these days we'll find a way to heal these. I know it's possible.

[She's relieved that he's being taken care of, even if some anxiety and guilt lingers. Some loud part of her is railing against the fact that she couldn't do more to protect him and Thorn.]

Ah. Pink mentioned it to me when I drank the demon blood. I don't know that eating any would have helped me. Maybe someday we'll find another way.

[She imagined herself eating it and it sounded gross, honestly, but if it had stopped her from becoming the way she is now she wished she had taken it.]

I have to say, you're a little scary when you're serious!

[She laughs airily.]

When Pink was hurt and then Thorn... you charged right in without hesitation. You're really strong, you know?

Ah, you think so?

There are things just like this where I'm from -- I think I forgot for a moment that they're different, so I fought them the same way. Wanted to put them down as fast as possible before they could do anything else.

You were great to have around, too! Thanks for keeping an eye on Thorn for me.
