The poison could give her the edge she needed. OoC: I don't think the wyrmsfoot is actually in anyone's inventory at the moment, and we don't really have a lot of time to wait for item exchanges. I suggest you simply have Aysu apply it and we sort it out later.

"Time to put this thing down."Ronin then activates his Cloaking Generator. "I am ready."

The rules specifically state that a target can only have one effect active at a time, so the consumables here would cancel each other out.

samurai-turtle Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 Don't roll, don't roll, don't roll when I do this...

OoC: The plan was for you to use your nature proficiency to assist Ronin in closing the thing's jaws. How you narrate that is up to you. Enson will hurl a flare at the Gator in an attempt to blind it.
Endgame Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 I think Decker tied the gator on the proficiency check, but I don't THINK that does anything. Additionally, as far as initiative go, Decker has 2 velocity, not 1. "Risky maneuver time, guys, let's make this happen!" Decker defends Polaris in the case that the gator retaliates.

No one has attempted to bind the Gator yet, I don't really care who has the rope.

Right now the description reads that Polaris will be using their Athletics Proficiency to help "hug" the mouth of the Gator close. OoC: I am assuming Ronin / @Yzalirk will be the one tying the mouth shut. As MILES (with Polaris) is bigger and heavier than everyone else the Gator might have some trouble opening it's mouth with MILES on top of it's jaw, plus he would be using his "arms" to help keep it closed. And maybe I am just speaking from my prospective but if someone was jumping on me, I might want to get them off of me and ignore anything else that might be going on around me. Remembering that when a person Gator Wrestle someone is holding the mouth shut before it gets tied up. I also seem to remember someone might be holding the tail as the mouth is getting tied up. Not to mention the Gator is bigger than everyone, one person might not be able to tie the mouth shut and I am guessing all they need to do is tie the end up to stop the mouth clamping. For any "checks" I thought it might be some sort of "grappling maneuver", as for "Nature checks" I guess she would use her knowledge of nature to know what to do slow it down... I don't know maybe I am interpreting things differently than you. If I need to do all this in some in character, we'll be it.

MM Note: Whomever is doing the tying, will be making a contested athletics test, unless they've got a good reasoning for it to be something else. If Polaris is assisting, simply have something stated in-character about the Nature of the Gator will suffice. For example if you were utilizing Perception: Polaris studies the Gator perceiving whether the Gator tended to favor one side of its body vs. another perhaps to avoid an old scarred wound, thus presenting an opening to the heroes trying to grapple it.

Peppermint_M Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 "Got you covered guys!" Aysu had he rifle ready to fire on the beast.
Waterbrick Down Posted October 27, 2021 Author Posted October 27, 2021 The heroes leap at the reptile as it emerges from the frozen lake. Polaris offers her expertise in nature to point out the gator's weaknesses as Enson chucks a flare in its face, causing the creature to swing madly around. Decker protects the Chimeran while Aysu takes her first shot at the beast scoring a hit in the creature's tough exterior. Ronin spurred on by Polaris's insight tries to wrangle the beast, but miscalculates on how slick the predator's scales would be and can't seem to secure the rope around the monster's jaws. Infuriated by the hero jumping on top of it, the gator does a barrel role and chomps down on Ronin's arm leaving a nasty wound.
