Beyond Freedom (M&M PbP) Issue #1 - Loves Lost?!

Victim said:
So there was someone in there. Good thing the energy cloud guy drew the shot. Usually, only special attack forms could hurt metas like him, or like that translucent lady. Since the armored guy, the stone guy, and now this guy were in the building, we need to sweep through it.

Security sideslips toward Winter and the hole at high speed and rakes the area with tangle rounds.

OOC: Can I do that? Att +14, maybe point blank shot, DC 20 ref save. Def 13.

If not, and if he's right by the edge, I'll attempt to grab him.

ICK - I think you are about 100ft from from the hole where Winter's is, so if you charged down you could see into the hole and blast at him from about 30ft (he is back inside the building). If you spent a Hero Point you could use it for Extra Effort - Movement and double your move this round and be able to grapple him. I am assuming you are just going to blast at him this round, so I will edit round 6...

One surprise after another.
"Looks like another one is in the building, concealed by some darkness, shooting at me with a staff or something."

What the hell is all this? We're here to rescue people, or stop people, or kill people, or what? Can't let this one get away, and I'm closest

Winter advances towards the mysterious man and fires another blast of radiation, looking around inside the building and trying to get a feel for what is going on inside and where things are. He also tries to get a better look at the one who shot him.

[OOC:I don't mind not moving (assuming the guy is close by) and just spending a half action looking around, otherwise I'm happy to advance, fire and try to look around. Still covered by darkness, using Super Senses, and Radiation form obviously]
 

... Athena then falls to the ground spilling her life blood onto the ground

Jimmy watched as Athena gave it her all to try and defeat the stony guy. Could he do no less?

Jimmy moved 55ft toward the hole in the building and used time control on Brimstone. Can't let you hurt anyone else. Jimmy thought.

[Luck on his damage save for the entire round]

[Paralysis attack from Time Control DC=15, Ranged attack at +9 on Ranged, Net +9 to hit].
 

Seeing Athena drop Harbinger bends over and grabs her then teleports 50’ to the south away from the combat.

OOC: I assume by the map you posted that Athena and Harbinger are on the south end of the map. There’s no direction indicator on it.
 


Surrounds...

[OOC: Can you describe the interior of the building a bit, and the man I'm facing? Thanks...]

Round 7
++++
Initiative...

33 -(ShadowDragon) hidden.
27 -Marguess.
25 -Jimmy Rocket.
24 -Mercury Mercenary.
23 -Thumper.
22 -Harbinger, Ursus and DeathKnight.
21 -Apollo
17 -Marionette hidden
11.5 - Remlok
11 -Winter
10 -Remaining Security Guard
6 - Agrippa
5.5 -Athena
5 -Brimstone
4 - Security


ShadowDragon continues to move north along the side of the building, remaining in the shadows and move only at 20ft a round… Hide check 8 +26 +1 leadership =35

----
Marguess is Unconscious...

---
Jimmy Rocket moves to the edge of the hole the Brimstone made going into the building and focuses on the time-space around him Attack roll 6 +9 +1 leadership =16 a hit. Brimstone gets a Will saving throw roll of 15 -1 =14 ARCK a miss. and causes the giant to freeze in place!

----
Mercury Mercenary ignores the security guard coming at him and blasts Ursus twice with a Rapid Fire MM Attack roll first shot is 16 +12 +1 leadership -2 range =27 a hit. Second Attack roll is 9 +11 =20 a hit (Ursus is stunned and loses his DEX bonus to DEF)! Ursus is up to 4 ranks of Super-Strength and Protection, on Marguess initiative so you have it against MM shots. Ursus must make two more Damage saving throw, first roll is 17 +2 =19 vs. a DC of 15 +8L -4 protection =19, making it dead on. Second damage save is 13 +2 =15, missing it by 4, taking another Lethal hit. Ursus now has 4 Lethal hits and 1 Stun hit, and is still Stunned (will recover on his action).

----
Thumper is Unconscious...

----
Harbinger grabs up Athena and teleports back to the wall and behind cover

Ursus, is slowly regaining more of his normal strength (he is up to 4 ranks of Super-Strength and Protection, on Marguess initiative so you have it against MM) and even after being shot two additional times he is still standing. Ursus recovers from being stunned and shakes off some of the effects of Damage (spends a Hero point to remove the Stun hit). Ursus then runs and jumps behind some rumbles (75% cover vs. MM) that is about 25ft away.

DeathKnight moves around a bit says something to his troops to give them his leadership bonus…

----
Apollo flies into the building and blasts the frozen and stunned Brimstone full in the face (NOTE that Taunt is a half-action, I am pretty sure you can't move, attack and taunt all in the same round. Luckily, Brimstone is stunned and frozen so your Surprise strike works against him anyway) Attack roll 15 +10 +1 leadership +1 point blank =27 a hit. Brimstone must make a Damage save roll of 9 +2 =11 vs. a DC of 15 +16S -12 protection =19, missing by 8. Brimstone takes a Stun hit and is Stunned again. Brimstone is already Blind so can't be extra blinded... And while he can't move, the blast seams to stagger him again.

----
Marionette flies (8ft) at towards the corner of the building that Harbinger and Athena just appeared at, and she is about 20ft away. She tries to remains hidden Hide roll 12 +24 +1 leadership =37 and thinks Hmm I could take out this guy no problem and then make sure that pretty girl is dead! But if he sees me and blasts me at this range I just might be toast. I'll try and get behind him…

----
Remlok notes that his blast against the Cloud winter are ineffective, and while dodging the armored glue shot by Security he blasts him with his power staff Attack roll 5 +16 =21 a hit (vs. Security's DEF =13). Security gets a Damage saving throw of 11 +3 =14 vs. a DC of 15 +15L -10 armor =20, missing it by 6. Security takes a lethal hit and his Stunned (unless you wish to use a Hero Point, you would need a 12 or you could spend the Hero point on your Initiative and ignore the Stunning effect). The blast hits Security in the middle of his chest and throws him back out of the hole and slamming into the building on the other side of the street Security is knocked back 15 -4 =11x 5ft =55ft across the street.

----
Winter flies towards Remlok and fires a blast of pure radiation at the time bandit Attack roll 13 +5 =18 a miss but can't seem to hit the elusive foe...

----
Remaining security guard draws a knife and charges Mercury Mercenary, yelling "You bastards are going to die!" He can't attack this round, but he gets up close to MM.

----
Athena Makes a Fortitude check roll of 18 +4 =22 vs. a DC 10 +1 Lethal to avoid dying hangs limb in Harbinger's arms. Her breathing is shallow but seems to become more regular and deep if the DC is beat by 10 or with a natural 20, then the character stabilizes and is unconscious and disabled

Brimstone comes out of one Stunned effect, only to be effected by another this round, AND he is Paralyzed. But still gets to try and recover from the blindness Fortitude save roll of 9 +5 +2 round =16 miss but can't overcome the effects

----
Security shakes off the effects of Remlock's blast [spends a Hero point] and sits up, and targets the villain Remlok (who is now 85ft away) with a couple of stunblast explosive missiles Attack roll 9 +14 =23 vs. DEF of 10, a hit; Second attack roll 10 +14= 24 another hit. Remlok gets two reflex saves to lower the damage, first roll 19 +9=28 vs. DC 20, then a Fortitude save roll of 18+3 =22 vs. DC 15; Second reflex roll 17+9 =26, then a Fortitude save of 9 +3 =12 a miss. Hmm Remlok is stunned!

Growling, Ursus ducks back away from the Mercury Mercenary, running as far away as he can towards the open building, ducking inside if he can.

OOC: I don't think he'll make it with just a partial action, but we'll see what happens. Oh, I'll spend another hero point to clear out that stun. :p Feh. But, it may mean the difference between surviving and not surviving.

[After confronting Remlock with the hero Winter, Security was blasted across the street and wounded by the villain's powerful attack.]

OOC: Spend a Hero point to remove stun condition. 3/5, 2 lethals

The armor status for the front chest went from green to yellow. That staff had burned through several layers of composite armor and cracked the ceramic plate. Pretty impressive. Now he'd been battered around, burned, and was biting his lip. Stay cool. Don't let pain or the enormity of the situation overwhelm you.

Glancing down at the weapons display, Security selects Stun missiles. Although they required rare, expensive gasses and thus he only had a handful, the dual requirements of hitting the exceptionally fast target and protecting the buildings meant that they were only choice. He traced out two missile paths and fired the first missile. If taser-based blast from the first missile somehow proved ineffective, then the second would be launched.

[Target: remlock. All out Attack +3 Atts: +14/+14 (if needed). Area: 50 ft rad, DC 20 ref save. DC 20 (15) Fort save or be stunned. Def 10.

He hits almost automatically. No reason not to use all out attack.
 

“She’s in bad shape, I’ve got to get her to a doctor.” Harbinger thinks after seeing the condition Athena is in. Harbinger teleports from the battlefield taking her to the Freedom Medical Center.
