"Could be there is something in here." Kai replied thoughtfully. "We arent likely to stumble across it in a day though, and anyways. Probably a good idea to do a sensor sweep over the place from our ship anyways."

"The Phoenix was made for sciencey stuff, I bet it has sensors for this sort of thing."

"Right." Jelna sighed. "What a waste of time. Could have been workin' on somethin' else. Don't know why I thought we might stumble upon some lost treasure of some sort."

"If we come here again I suggest back-up." Kai offered with a glance behind him as they neared the exit. "This place ain't safe."

As they left the forest it was hard to shake the presence, the feeling of being watched.

"Agreed. Let's get out of here before our friend invites others."

"I think it'd be wise if we took this time to leave." The tall human offered after a few moments, his eyes drifting towards Jelna.

They likely couldn't do anything with the next corpse anyways.

An eerie silence descends upon the forest.

Well the beast was likely about to get away, and Kai was too busy to try and chase it down, so dodging the tree he back towards Jelna.

Action: dodge tree
Maneuver: move towards jelna

Freedom just before it the wild Nexu yelps loudly as the searing bolt of Jaina's blaster makes contact with its flesh once more. Feet losing all of their strength out from under the beast and sending it tumbling along the ground until it fell to rest in a heap on the floor some few feet away.

[Combat is over, Kai still has to evade the tree so do note tha tin your next post]

Jelna took aim again and pulled the trigger at the beast. "Look out for the tree!" she shouted.

[Just noticed the necessary correction, though it has yet to play a substantial roll. Setback for Kai is when he is at short. When engaged he suffers no setback. That makes his previous roll at a net of 0 success/fail, which is still a miss.]

Attempting another jump away up a tree, the panicked Nexu had chosen a tree poorly. Swinging on it for a moment before the weakened tree snapped and was pulled backwards with its weight. Sending it tumbling down directly at Kai! Able to jump free from it the Nexu continued it's attempt at flight once more. Running further off into the deep forest, deep enough that the bioluminescent plant life was starting to become visible to Kai. Little specs of lights dotting in the distance around some trees here and there.

Athletics to Climb, Average for a Nexu adapted to it.: 3eP+2eD 0 successes, 2 advantage, 1 Triumph

Athletics to Climb, Setback: 1eS 0 successes, 1 threat

[Nexu disengages and then moves again, at Medium with Kai and at Medium with Jelna but half way to being at Long.]
[Kai must spend an action dodging the falling tree or else take 3 wounds, non-soakable.]

Letting the animal get was the last thing Kai wished for. Honestly who knew when it might be back, again. Stepping forward in a rush his sword drew blood again.

Jelna fired another shot at the fleeing beast, but it went slightly wide. Still, she shouted, "Get on, get! You stupid animal!"

Wounded by the vicious hit the Nexu is thrust aside. Jumping with the momentum the cat-like creature remains on it's feet through sheer agility. Quickly shaking it's head to regain control of it's senses the creature looked back at the two once more and re-prioritized it's hunt. With haste the creature spins about a tree and peels off from the engagement. Jumping onto one of the tree's to try and find a quick escape but it's claws didn't sink in. Unable to find traction the beast fell back to the forest floor but quickly changed it's aim and in long lunges raced across the forest floor.

[Strain for Two Manuevers. Strain converted to Damage.]
[Nexu Manuevers to disengage with Kai, then Acts to try and climb the tree, then upon failure manuevres to move to Medium Range from Kai and Jelna.]

Nexu Climb!: 3eP+2eD 1 failure, 1 advantage

Glowrod in one hand, Kai couldn't very well attack with his blaster rifle, not that he even had it drawn. So he did the second best thing and pulled forth his vibro sword and stepped forward. Hopefully they could make fairly quick work of the beast. Was Nexu tasty?

Maneuver: draw vibrosword

Recoiling from the blast, the Nexu's right shoulder dipped a little. Scent of seared flesh entered the scene. Off, in the distance, the sound of another of the forests other denizens can be heard. While it was not alone the Nexu was not the only thing on the hunt.

[Kai is up!]
[Also, please post Soak, Defense, and Health/Strain values.]

Jelna leveled her pistol and held her breath before pulling the trigger. The bolt flew true, and she sighed a relief. Her skill had once been better during her time in the ISB but her blaster was something she was used to.

Darkness surrounded the... heroes, as they raised their blasters in defense. With teeth bared, claws ready, the creature was caught in the open between a set of trees just as it was about to pounce. Illuminated by the light of the Glow Rod the creature's teeth were bared against the threat. It's careful hunt having become far more dangerous.

Initiative:

PC
PC
Nexu


PC is up!

Nexu is at Short Range, no cover.
Kai will suffer one setback due to darkness at short range, three at Medium and at Long or greater cannot see the target. This remains true so long as he has one hand for the Glow Rod to aim at the target.
Thanks to the Scanner Goggles Jelna will not have any Setback from darkness, but should the Nexu become engaged the restricting nature of the goggles will offer a setback on attacks.
