OOC:
Let me know if I mess up the roll somehow. Lol
OOC:
No it was perfect :D
The succes:
Torrek sees the beast pull a kitchen knife to its head, but the rusted piece of half a meter away chain hardly moves. It must be able to direct its magnetic pull.
OOC:
Then the fear effect
Then it turns it head, and makes eye contact.
And roars at Torrek! It have found a solid dinner.
[ +- ] roar
OOC:
The chase is on!
First off, the other countdown are paused.

We are now going into a dynamic countdown, meaning at Torrek will loose the beast in the ruins when his counter reaches 0. When the beast reaches 0 on his clock he will have caught up to Torrek, and we will transition into combat.
@MaJunior what does Torrek do?
[ +- ] Youtube rules example of a chase
The smithy
You all hear a roar from the farmhouse that you resently vacated. You also notice a buzzing from the shed. The mosquitoes are getting ready for a meal.
Aug 12, 2025 6:12 pm
OOC:
How many swarms of mosquitos are here at the Smithy?
Aug 12, 2025 6:19 pm
Torrek will take off towards the smithy, hoping the others are ready to try and trap the beast. The fight is happening, whether they're ready or not.
OOC:
Making an agility roll to sprint, and assuming the Experience "Battle-Hardened" applies -- as a knight, it shouldn't be Torrek's first time charging across a battlefield.

Guesclinbert flies over the forge as the others check it out, keeping an eye out for the creature, mosquitoes from the tower, or Torrek.
Aug 13, 2025 6:27 pm
Well that isn't good. I am going to go find Torrek. Daedale then shifts form into a goat much like the ones around the compound then going to sprint out to where we left Torrek last.

Vethalia snaps her fingers creating a small flame which she uses to ignite her bomb. A card flickers into existence between her fingers showing a flayed, disembodied hand. Glowing fingers wrap around the bomb and rush it into the shed smashing it on a beam spraying flaming liquid everywhere.

No point in mucking about hopefully the fire will trap them on the inside and ignite their wings.

Magnatite Beast
Guesclinbert can see how the beast is chasing Torrek, and Daedale the goat is running to intercept.
The beast however is gaining on Torrek
OOC:
fail with hope is 2 ticks towards consequence
Vethalia launches her monotowl cocktail into the sheed.
OOC:
I think such a monotowl cocktail deald 2d6 damage, but you could place it with precision, so we will treat it as a critical hit. This means it deals maximum damage + its die roll. That is over their threshold, and the swarm looses 3 hit point
Giant mosquitoes
The fire causes panic in the sheed, and it forces the mosquitoes to leave their shelter and attack those who harmed them
OOC:
I activate one of the two swarms in the sheed and attack Vethalia, takes 4 points of damage
OOC:
In the smithy:
Mosquitoes swarm 1
Mosquitoes swarm 2
Vethalia Pixeldust
Talin Windborne

@Emberskyes,@Bullseyepsa can engage the Mosquitoes swarms or leave to join the beast fight.

In the ruins
The beast chasing
Guesclinbert - in air
Torrek - running away
Daedale - running towards

@valdattaMadun,@MaJunior,@Lemming23 can do something (roll a skill) to have Torrek escape, or you can choose to engage the beast
[ +- ] Fear counter is 5

OOC:
I will place it with precision the idea was to do maximum damage and such. Hopefully they're on fire too.

My base threshold is 5, 4 would be a minor and I'll spend a point of armour to reduce it to nothing.

I'll let Talin go as I've already reacted.
The mosquitos swarm but their stickers prove ineffective against her gambeson.

Daedale running through the ruins they see Torrek in the distance being chased by the beast. Daedale whips up a ruined wall to higher ground speeding along aiming to get above Torrek and run along the ruined tops of the old buildings. Leaping from ledge to ledge and ruined wall to ruined wall.

Torrek, friend. The others should be in the smithy, though nothing is ready yet, it may be best for us to rendezvous with them before engaging as a team.
OOC:
[ +- ] Steady
Nimble Grazer also gives advantage on "leaping" which I think sort of plays into here but I don't think I get double advantage.

Rolls

Agility + Beastform + Steady (advantage) - (2d12+1d6+2)

(810) + (5) + 2 = 25

"Let's clear the area so we're just dealing with the beast when they get it here."

Talin spins his blade towards one of the mosquito swarms around Vethalia, letting it fly through the bugs (hopefully through the bugs) before returning to his hand.
OOC:
That looks likely to be a success with hope, so I'll roll damage.

The ruins
Magnatite Beast
Torrek manage to get a good distance away from the beast, and Daedale distracts it, for just long enough for Torrek to give it the final slip. Torrek and the beast is separated by just one ruined wall, and the beast is searching - but can't find him at the moment.
OOC:

Success with hope: two ticks down
Success with fear: one tick down + one tick down for the consequence
Both catching and escaping reach 0 at the same time.

The chase is over. Torrek has the Hidden condition
I spotlight the beast to search for Torrek. The hidden condition is a disadvantage to the roll.
The Smithy
Giant mosquitoes
Talin throw his blade into the swarm and several more bugs falls the the ground. But they swarm him
OOC:
The difficulty is 10 on the mosquitoes
I'll spend 2 fear to spotlight both swarms and deals 4 points of physical damage to Talin

Aug 15, 2025 5:56 pm
Talin steps next to Vethalia to reduce attack vectors and whirls his blade around himself to protect from the swarm.
OOC:
Talin will spend an armor slot to reduce the damage to nothing.

Success with fear, rolling damage

Another card glowing hot with magical energies flickers into existence between Vethalia's fingers as a burst of flames shoot out of her extended fingertips towards the swarm.
OOC:
What's the recall cost? I guess I can just look it up.

OOC:

You are correct that your spellcasting stat is Knowledge. You can add a relevant experience at the cost of a Hope.

Recall cost should not be relevant yet. We don't have enough cards to have any in the vault to be recalled.

Page26 says:
Recall Cost: The number and lightning bolt in the top right of the card shows its Recall Cost. This doesn’t affect you at character creation, but once you reach level 5, you’ll have more cards than space in your loadout (your set of five active cards; see the "Loadout and Vault" section on page 101). You can normally only move an inactive card from your vault to your loadout during downtime, but you can mark a number of Stress equal to a card’s Recall Cost to swap it immediately.
Giant mosquitoes
Half the Mosquitoes are down, only about 30 is flying around Vethalia and Talin. Some land on Vethalia back, but Talin quickly smack them off again.

There are no surprises in the Mosquitoes statblock and I thought it could be informative for you to see how they are described.

https://i.imgur.com/JsHhZsZ.jpegTorrek managed to get behind the beast as it searched for its prey - unfortunately, for it, in the wrong direction.
OOC:
Its your actions
Aug 19, 2025 3:58 pm
Daedale moves to Torrek.

I believe I have a plan. We need to fell the beast but we need to do it together and with it being least likely to detect it is an attack at first. I think in my current goat form, maybe I can lead it to where we want to stage the attack...I do not think we have much time so traps seem not likely but ambush is another thing. We just need to find our friends
