Message: <blockquote data-quote="Calinon" data-source="post: 1399599" data-attributes="member: 13737">RoofMichelle reaches out with her own magnetic field, latching on to the nearest ferrous disc.  She can hear a motor grind angrily in opposition, but manages to keep a hold of it.  It is much harder than it should be and the disc is obviously trying to get at you.  Instead of controlling it, you find yourself trying to push it away.  You realize there is another one just like this disc. Attack roll hits with an 8 (they weren't moving or avoiding you).  You have the disc locked in a grapple, succeeding on the opposed check with a 15 versus 10.  I didn't make you use your hero point as once you attack it, you know without a doubt you got it. Rebound inflates again, bouncing forward.  "Have at you!" he shouts as he plumets at Kevin, his own version of a battle cry.  He slams into Kevin, and past him, landing on the roof of the stairwell.  Kevin's force field absorbs any harm that would have been done him by the bouncing boy. "Holy cow!  Search and destroy magno-discs!  Hi-tech!" exclaims Anna.  "They're fast and explode!" she shouts.  Her jets fire launching her sixty feet upwards as her right arm transforms into a cannon.  She launches an icy blast at the grappled disc, smashing it to the ground.  It gives a sputter and goes silent. Tara flies towards Kevin, wings thrumming angrily.  She slashes at him with her insectoid arms, the blows glancing off his force field. "Hope you like these!" Kevin says, still grinning, unphased by the attacks, and he releases the tethers.  The remaining red disk streaks at Michelle, while the blue ones streak at Anna and Sanjay.   The disk slams into Michelle's force field, staggering her back a step.  It flattens out against the field, it's bottom covered in some sort of teeth like apparatus.  It chews into your field forming a small opening.  A circular opening forms in the base of the disc, and a spike shoots out, stabbing Michelle in the hip, then retreating into the disc.  You manage to step back far enough that the teeth don't get you. Attack hits with a 17.  The spike is small, needlelike, and does no real damage, just a small sting.  Your force field was just strong enough to absorb the damage of the attack.  You made your save with a 15. Another disk flies at Anna, she weaves away and it zips by her, coming around for another pass.  The last disk soars at Sanjay, and he creates his own disk, sending it spinning out.  The two discs collide with a spark, and the attacking disc skitters off a bit before starting to come at him again. Deflection successful.  23 beats the attack roll of 16. Kevin is not done.  From within his coat he pulls a sonic pulse cannon.  The barrel extends until he is holding a weapon about the size of an M-60.  He steps back and blasts Tara.  She is hit and sent flying, sliding along the ground until she hits the ledge at the edge of the roof.  She rolls to a sitting position, shaking her head. Kevin shoots and hits Tara with a 20.  Dara fails her damage save, getting stunned and suffering a knockback. Sanjay tries to finish off the disc, throwing a black energy beam at it.  The beam engulfs the disc.  As it dissipates, a black and silver dust is all that remains of the disc as it blows into the sky. Neutron hits with a natural 20.  The poor disc loses 11 ranks of hardness, far more than it had.  Bai bai. I'm not bothering with a map up here. PenthouseDownstairs, Kevin slams Mia again with the chain.  She doesn't even grunt as it hits her, the armor absorbing most of the damage. "Fight or not, silly boy.  I will still kill you." She finishes drawing her sword and steps into you, gripping the handle in both hands and delivering a viscious slice at you.  For a moment, you don't think she hit, but when you try to make your arms and feet do what you want, you find yourself falling to your knees.  You look down to see a rapidly spreading pool of blood.  Mia takes her mask off and kneels down in front of you, dropping her sword to her side.  She takes your face in her hands and kisses you even as you feel blood rising in your throat. "Good bye," you hear her say as you lose consciousness. You hit with a 19, but she makes her damage save with a 22.  She hits with a 25.  Your damage save versus 24 is an 8.  She punctures your lung, slices open your stomach and nicks a kidney; you are dying.  I'll give you a few rounds for your friends to get here before you need to stabilize because well, I don't like killing people. InitiativesMia 23, Metal Mistress 22, Rebound 20, Anna 16, Stealer 15, Tara 14, Kevin 11, Neutron 7 FoyerThe elevator door explodes outward.  X12 steps back, Vincent runs straight up the wall and past it and Cosmo flattens to the floor.  The doors nail the guards nearby and then soar into and through the wall, flattening the guards inside their room.   John and Johan each take a final look at their bracelets and toss them aside as a man, clad in some sort of grey metalic armor, complete with a metalic headsman hood, steps out of the elevator.  Clutched in his hands is a massive two handed axe.  It has twin guarded handgrips and is glowing a violent green.  He tosses a bag from his waist and four spider-like robots about the size of a grapefruit skurry from it.  On the back of each is a syringe. "I thought I'd come down and say hello," the armored man says, voice made hollow from the mask.  "Have you met my little friend?" he asks mockingly, twirling the axe around deftly.  He finishes by slashing it into and through a pillar.  The axe passes completely through without shattering the rock, and the top half slowly topples over onto the floor. The clatter of the rest of you tearing off and discading your bracelets is his first response.  The desk manager ducks behind his desk and the few remaining guards scatter in terror. "Holy <expletive>," Cosmo says as the pillar collapses. Tight quarters, no need for a map. Initiatives:  Speed Demon 27, Murphy 23, X12 19, Johan 18, Straightjacket 16, Cosmo 15 Speed Demon is up.  Johan is up in the G-Spot.  Michelle is up on the roof.  The real Kevin is in need of help.</blockquote>
