Babylon 5: Outrageous Fortune

With a deft strike, Sarhat knocks the legs from under Raive, and the cyborg lands heavily onto his back, looking partly confused and partly angry.

Kevin grabs a handful of Tryce's wires and abseils smoothly down to the ground, landing behind Raive, opposite Sarhat. He glances over his shoulder at Lauren, bleeding in the control cubicle and quirks a eyebrow.

[sblock=OOC]
Still to act this round, Ashley, Lauren and Vurk.

Ash can continue to maintain the daze on Tryce with no roll required, or try something else if you think Kevin's 'unplugging' has neutralised him.

Lauren only has clear line of sight to Kevin, now that the Ranger has landed in front of her.

Sarhat trip attack 13+3=16. Opposed Strength check from Raive, 12. Sarhat wins, trips Raive.

Athletics check to abseil 9+7=16, beats DC 15.

Seeing Raive down and Sarhat joined, Ashley lifts a hand towards Tryce. It was a silly thing...she'd actually gotten some demerits for the habit in PsiCorps since it telegraphed that she was doing something...but it helped her stay focused. She'd broken herself of needing it...but when there was a lot going on, it helped.

This time was no exception. Where her hand pointed, her eyes and mind followed. Raive and the other unknown down there were left to her capable companions. For her there was only Tryce, and the prison she'd constructed in his mind.
 



Knocked to the ground by Sarhat, Raive executes a deft flip and is suddenly back on his feet. He glances quickly between the Minbari and Ranger flanking him, then executes a blindingly fast backswing at Kevin using his cybernetic claw. The Ranger deftly darts to one side but the claw still catches him on the shoulder, drawing blood. The cyborg's look of confusion is replaced with one of determination.

[SBLOCK=Ashley]
Although most of her attention is on holding Tryce, Ashley sees all this. Raive looks like a man who has just woken up, found some people attacking him and instinctively fought back.

Unperturbed, Kevin pulls out his fighting pike and snaps out some words in Dark Minbari.

[SBLOCK=Fik]
"Shall we take him down, boss?"
- Minbari languages don't really allow for that kind of informality, but Kevin uses a conjugation that suggests deference towards Sarhat.

Meanwhile, in her cubby-hole, Lauren fumbles with her first aid kit, her injured arm making it difficult to effectively treat her wounds.

[SBLOCK=OOC]
Natural Athlete feat gives you some pretty handy abilities...

Hit from Raive on Kevin for 5 damage, reduced to 3 thanks to Minbari crystalweave.

Medical check 2+7=9 from Lauren, fails in First Aid but may retry. (DC 15+)

Ash has successfully held Tryce in his daze, may continue or perform another action. Sethyk is still trying the door code (he's now got a toolkit out and is dismantling it). Vurk is near him, a safe distance from the melee (as safe as he can get).

SH*T! This has just been too much! Why is it that I lose everything and now this! I swear I'm gonna kill Knight if I ever get the chance.

She fumbles with the kit, doing her best to treat and bandage herself.
 

"Wait!" Ashley yells. "Raive! Tryce had you under control! He was forcing you to fight! Stand down now, and we can talk!"

Despite her words, she grimaces and continues trying to keep Tryce a prisoner in his body.
 

Ash's words make Sarhat keep his temper and he takes a step back, holding the pike infront of him. "Give him chance to surrender" he replies to Kevin in fik.

OOC: Step back & Full defence.
 

Raive pauses, but he remains alert, keeping Sarhat and Kevin at bay with his cybernetic claw.

"What the hell's going on here?" he asks, his voice almost a feral growl. "Who are you people?" Glancing past Ashley, his gaze falls on Sethyk, currently trying to finesse the keypad. Sethyk drops his toolkit, the delicate instruments falling between the mesh of the floor grille.

[SBLOCK]
I'm picturing Raive as something like Hugh Jackman's Wolverine, but with added wires and gadgets.

Diplomacy check for Ashley: 14+7=21
Medical check for Lauren: 5+7 = 14. Not quite!
