Message: <blockquote data-quote="Calinon" data-source="post: 1390512" data-attributes="member: 13737">Crystal Palace ApartmentsUnfortunately, you were surprised.  I'm assuming you don't want to use your hero point right now.  You will start stunned and grappled.  That being said, you can still do your action soooo... Murphy nearly casually hoists Kevin up by the neck and carries him inside.  Now facing the door, Kevin sees the guards smirk as they close the door. "Oh, be a dear and put him in my play-room, Murphy," Mia Toan calls from a nearby room. Murphy ignores Kevin as he struggles to, and manages to, remove his bracelet.  "Might want to call the desk," Murphy says, shaking Kevin by the neck.  "Little punk got his wristband off.  Don't want the cops here," he says with a grin. "Already taken care of," Mia Toan says as she exits the room.  She is dressed in some sort of flexible body armor.  It apears to be made of a single piece of metallic cloth, hugging her body tightly.  She has a sword strapped over her back.  "So good to see you again, Kevin," she says sweetly, though her look sends shivers down your spine. Murphy maintains his chokehold and carries you into another room.  You grip his wrists to try to relieve some of the pressure and realize he has no powers whatsoever.  He has some serious training though, some of which you absorb, and some of which you are unsure what it is even for.  Murphy laughs at you. "Sorry to disappoint ya, kid," he laughs gruffly as he carries you into the 'play-room.'  "I thought I was being a nice host by not killing you when you showed up.  Guess you can't please everyone!" The room has fifteen foot ceilings and various contraptions it looks are used for something deviant or deadly; maybe both.  Whips, knives, chains, hoses and other less pleasant items hang on racks along the outer walls.  The floor is hardwood, and from your angle, you see no windows and only the one door.  Murphy carries you into the center of the room and slams you down onto the table.  With one hand pinning you, he fastens first one arm, then the other, straight out from your body with metal shackles, then repeats the process with your legs, straightening them and fastening them securely. "Nice knowin' ya kid," Murphy says, leaving the room. "Just make sure none of his friends followed him," Mia says to Murphy.  "We're going to have such fun," you hear Mia say as the door closes.  "I'm so glad you came alone.  You are alone, aren't you?" You get the wristband off once you aren't stunned.  Murphy maintains his grapple, inflicting a stun hit by shaking you.  You duplicate his feats, but fail to break his grapple.  You are then strapped to a metal table in a scary ass room with a psychopath. Feats:  Immunity (super) to radiation, Attack focus (unknown), Improved critical (unknown), Penetrating attack (super) unknown weapon, Power attack, Takedown attack, Take the fall (bear the brunt of an attack on another) The (unknown) bits mean its relating to a weapon you have no knowledge of, but once you actually see it, you'll know that's what it is.  And I don't want to ruin the surprise <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />  You also don't get one of his feats, because it is impossible to duplicate being that it relies on people he knows that you don't have pull with.  You do realize, however, that he feels confident he'll never get sent to prison. The War Room"Duplication!?  For the love of..." Mendez says, cursing up a storm.  He grabs his electronic pad and starts fumbling around trying to connect it to the map somehow.  "Fricken' high tech crap!  Anyone know how to download a map into this thing?  And you!" he says, pointing at Johan.  "You better come clean with what you know or I'll bust your rear for interfering in an investigation and pissing me off!" You can see Mendez is getting more and more frustrated by the unanticipated and rather foolhardy events.</blockquote>
