[QUOTE="Teflon Billy, post: 645696, member: 264"] [b]The Mumbler[/b] pointed at the emerging figure of [b]The Mormodillo[/b] and raised the alarm; or rather, gave [i]his[/i] version of raising the alarm: pointing excitedly and making a low, senseless noise to which no one paid any attention. [b](OOC: As [i]The Mumbler[/i] and [i]Bionic Ninja[/i] were the only ones to make their spot rolls to notice [i]The Mormodillo[/i], I decided that [i]Mumbler[/i] would spend the round "raising the alarm". One of the players mentioned that he was mute...when you got me, you got me :) ) [/b] With a growing mix of alarm and dread, [b]The Mumbler[/b] watched the [b]The Mormodillo[/b] pull back his arm and hurl the legendary [i]Javelin of Teancum[/i], at the last possible second he left off poking at the side of [b]Big Lummox[/b] and combined a sidewise lurch with a reflexive and ultra short-distance teleport, narrowly avoiding the hurtling brass relic. His elation was as short lived as it was unintelligible. Unaware as he was that the [i]Javlin of Teancum[/i] returned to it's owner's hand after every cast, he was unprepared for it to pierce his back and emerge, point first, from his shoulder as it traced it's line back to the Armor-Plated Avenger. He was confused until the moment he hit the ground, unconscious. [b](OOC: Though [i]The Mumbler[/i] used his [i]Blink[/i] Extra to increase his defense by 5, [i]The Mormodillo[/i] still rolled well enough to hit. I debated using a villain point to re-roll his crappy damage save, but decided against it as [i]The Mumber[/i] was more of a scout than a fornt line fighter, and frankly the jig was up for [i]Damage Incorporated[/i] and their employer.)[/b] [b]Bionic Ninja[/b] seeing that he had dropped into the middle of battle, immediately shifted to his Roku Clan-trained [i]Komori[/i], or shadow, form. Passing effortlessly through the glass tube that was mere moments before his prison, he slid up the wall of the offices into a corner of the ceiling, unseen. At that moment, [b]Tephra[/b] and [b]The Fakir[/b] crashed through the door, joing [b]The Mormodillo[/b] as he clambered out of his tunnel and snatched his returning Javelin out of mid air. All three of the heroes confronted the awesome might of [b]Big Lummox[/b] who turned his attention to the trio and growled "puny imbeciles...I WILL DESTROY YOU", and started toward them. [b]Tephra[/b] met the charge full on, asking the [b]Lummox[/b] aloud "I wonder...do you [i]melt[/i]?", and unleashing a blast of white hot [i]Scoria[/i] stones from her outstretched palm. [img]http://www.members.shaw.ca/PanzerGeist/tephra2.jpg[/img] The stones and flame washed over the lunging form of [b]Big Lummox[/b], blistering his blue skin to black in spots and, unexpectedly, causing his muscles to enlarge, his height to increase, and his mass to expand. [b](OOC: [i]Big Lummox[/i] has the [i]Absorption[/i] power feeding to [i]Growth[/i])[/b] His enormous blue fist came thundering toward the Volcano Elemental like a ball from a cannon.... More to come.... [/QUOTE]
