Jean attempts to lasso herself an AT-AT ancient world destroyer, but her path is interrupted by a flying guardian. (No dice, Rivina!)
Porphyrion brings his clenched right hand (the one not paralyzed by Tony and Amaruve) to his chest, a stormcloud forming and following in its wake. The clouds darken to an inky black as virulent green lightning erupts from his fist, lancing outward toward everyone in front of him.
DC 16 DEX/maneuver save for half damage, Perspicacious and Tony!

“Listen, Porphyrion, I get that you’re mad at this whole misunderstanding, but I’ve had a bad day with lightni- AAAAAA!” Tony grips the wheel as the storm hits.
Amaruve strains to see what's going on behind him when he's struck by a wave of necrotic energy that causes him to burst into his normal form. Suddenly squeezed into a seat that moments ago had been too large.
Sensing Tony's sudden reluctance Amaruve turns his cannon for the approaching armada. He shifts back into a monkey and release another burst. The coil arcs and launches a spark that errupts in a huge Fireball in the center of the group, dealing 31 fire damage over a 20 foot radius and draining 15 from Amaruve.

Perspicacious tries desperately to roll out of the way of the gas cloud erupting from the giant.
Maneuvers: 17
As she clears the main blast, signals and lights begin chirping on the main console, highlighting a leak or problem of some kind towards the back of the ship. "Oh hells, what now?!" Perspicacious exclaims. "I can't fly AND repair this thing at the same tim... WAIT!"She grabs at her pack and whips out the bell, ringing it quickly. Before she even spots the tiny flask, she's barking out instructions. "Chime! Get to the back of the ship and figure out what's wrong with Caspian and fix it if you can."
Tony’s voice crackles to life on the speaking stone, “So, to give a quick update, my sister is in the giant, probably. She’s controlling it and Saggy is controlling her. We need to find where he is. After that, Porphyrion can cheese it outta here and off into wherever he wants.”

Jean retracted the harpoon, frustrated, and flew in front of Amaruve as the necrotic wave was about to hit. She raised the Shield of the Ghost Sentry, calling forth it's spectral guardian. What looked like a ghostly image of Jean herself crouched on the nose of Amaruve's mech, dissipating the purple-black energy wave as it passed through her.
(Am, you only take half damage from the necrotic blast)
After Tony's voice crackled through the speaking stone Jean's eyebrow raised and she was glad that she at least tried a non-lethal maneuver. "Copy that, Tony. We'll find that bastard somehow." She replied.
Seeing the giant strike out, Fiorello knows he must move fast. He makes a quick jump from the skipper towards Perspicacious and says a prayer while flying by, reaching out to touch her to cure her wounds as he flew by and back to his skipper granting her 19 health.

The armada turns as one toward Porphyrion in response to his necrotic lightning attack. They circle the giant's head and hover in place, a slowly rotating halo around the creature. Then they attack with their fiery cannons
Attack: 17 Damage: 57 fire
Porphyrion bellows in agony, shaking the air around you. In the screams, however, you distinctly hear the cries of a small girl.
Turn Order Taesn: (delayed) Jean: 20 Tony/Fiorello: 20 Porphyrion/Sagacious 9 Perspicacious/Amaruve: 8 The Armada: 6
Taesn shouts at Tony through the speaking stone, "So what do you want me to do, goblin? Are we taking down this thing, or what?!"
Amaruve releases his grip on his coil suddenly uncertain of his objective. He watches the creature, looking for... Something. An opening? Direction? (Perception: 20)
Rather than turning back into a monkey, as he was prepared to (I'm not sure if it's too late to change up that action) he remains in his bear shape, somewhat too large for the space, and touches the Staff of Frost to the coil suddenly shrouding the sky in a dence Fog Cloud.
(Okay, a few things to parse out... way to go, Jean! We'll call the order of operations Fiorello/Tony/Jean, then Amaruve. Perspicacious, feel free to put that famous tactical mind to good use!)
Fiorello lets his falcon fly before Tony lets the group know that Porphyrion may not be the target here. Based upon the giant's reaction (yet another roar of pain), it clearly does some kind of damage. However, the falcon explodes in a burst of white light as Porphyrion claps his hand to his face.
Tony, you don't succeed in locating Sagacious or your sister. However, Jean was flying low in her attempt to swoop the giant. She notices as she passes over the open roof of the Solarium that she cannot see into it. Which is odd, as the bright light of day should allow for an easy view. Jean, you reason that there is some kind of magic preventing you from peering too closely into the Solarium; something must be inside that Sagacious doesn't want you to see. At the same time, Amaruve, you notice a tell-tale shimmer in the air belying 2-3 flying invisible shapes. The shimmers move from guardian to guardian, and everywhere they go, robots falter suddenly and fall with new spear holes in their heads and wings...
Just as Amaruve and Jean exchange this information with the party, Amaruve casts an enormous fog cloud, blanketing the area in mist. All of you (who do not have blindsight) are effectively flying blind, now. Fiorello's instrument panel suddenly blinks back online, though! With his guidance, he could coordinate your movements to wherever you need to go.
Maneuvers and attack rolls will have disadvantage while in the fog. However, you are safe from attacks for the time being. Unless you want to re-engage, you are out of combat for the time being!
Perspicacious will hit a series of dials and buttons that allow her to talk to the rest of the group. "We have to get down to the Solarium. I don't think we can stop it from up here. Sagacious may be controlling it all from that area that Jean couldn't see into. I think it's best not to attack the giant robot until we can confirm we're not harming Tony's sister. I have an idea, but it's probably going to be suicide." She pauses a moment before continuing, "I'm going to swing Caspian out of the fog and just over the Solarium... then I'm going to jump."
She waits for the response from the team. Hopefully they're with her.

Amaruve taps Prespicacious shoulder with a rumble to Cure Wounds for 10 before he cracks the canopy, climbs out, and leaps before Prespicacious is at all prepared.
Amaruve and Perspicacious, you both leap into the fog. You're at least five stories up...
Roll CON, both of you!
As they leap, the Staff of Frost on the bear's back flashes in a flare of blue light, then disappears (lost WIS contest rolled on discord). The fog begins to dissipate immediately after.
You all have just a few moments to act before you're visible to all combatants once again!

"Damn it, Amaruve! I was going to fly us closer!"Perspicacious tries to move the ship down out of the fog and closer to the solarium before jumping out. She's not stupid though. She ties a rope to Caspian and repels down, using it to slow her fall so she doesn't splat against any unknown surface below.
