Planet VI: Ice Planet

As you charge towards the crater, ship, and pair of individuals you ready weapons and Stinger finds he is out of ammo. Avro continues to scan the area trying to get a lock onto the creatures while warming up the ships point defense systems.
Avro can roll a standard test, 2d6, to target the creatures before the others get to the two from the pod. If that succeeds then she can attack, 1d6 at disadvantage, to soot the target with the ships lasers.

As you close in on the pair they also begin to move towards you, picking up speeed as they do. Maybe they detected the ice creatures and are moving to get to the ship for safety.

Avro links th ships point deffense lasers to the scanners and tries to adjust it so that the native life forms are classified as a tuhreat to the ship while fine tunning the scanners lock onto the creatures. Unfortunately the first attempt fails.

You wil meet in 1 more round so 2 actions each. Talking and other minor interactions do not require an action and are free as long as you limit the ammount and compllexity of the minor actions.

The ship fire tances out and stikes behind the two figures running and one of the blasts strikes a ice ooze which errupts in pain and begins retreating immediately.

The two from the pod slow and stop as laser fire continues to melt holes in the ice behind them.

Stinger and the others also stops a short distance from the pair but can not set the ice ooze. Having lost track of the creatures upon descending to the planets surface. Likely their coloration and fluidic bodies allow them to blend well with the environment.

Luminara glances behind but sees nothing but steam from their crafts landing and holes where the lasers have struck.

The two groups, of two and three, now stand a short distance 25'. Which takes a move action to cross.

apart about halfway between the pod and two ships.

Alandra's estimates where one of the creatures may be approaching from attempts to flush it out but only results in cracked ice. You look around and see nothing but ice. However the creatures are almost perfectly suited to blending in with the ice. You must "SPOT" a creature or it must move/act so you have something discernable to attack. To locate one you need to test with disadvantage and specify where you are looking, Near zone, Far to the north, far to the east etc. Laser blasts targeted very far from where you currently stand.

The pair walk over as the trio from the Odyssey as well as Avro, still back on the ship, scan the area for the ooze.
