Message: <blockquote data-quote="Calinon" data-source="post: 1400571" data-attributes="member: 13737">FoyerStraightjacket suddenly grows to full size, snaking forward to wrap around the Headsman. He squeezes, drawing a sharp exhalation of breath from the Headsman. He appears successful, then suddenly remembers why this might not have been the best tactic. The Headsman pulls his axe against his body as John tightens his grip, and the radiation of the axe starts sizzling into Straightjacket. The smell of melting leather and burning flesh start to become apparent. Attack was successful with a 21. Grapple check was a 26 versus a 21 and successful. You take damage from the energy field, reduced for protection. You get a 15 damage save, taking a lethal hit. Cosmo jumps in, punching the Headsman in the ribs, one of the few open locations left by the grapple. He manages to connect, earning a slight grunt in response. "Still alive, punk? I'll fix that shortly!" Cosmo hits, inflicting a stun hit. Vincent finds and grabs a nullification bracelet on the floor. Dashing in, he tries to attach it to the Headsman's wrist, but has no luck. The twisting of the grappling combatants and hidden location of his hands make it impossible. Miss with a 12. "Let's turn up the heat, kid!" the Headsman says. You feel him give a slight twist of the axe handle and a burst of power radiates out from his axe. Headsman shifts his weight and pushes, and Straightjacket groans and staggers backward, falling heavily into the wall, smoke rising from the front of his uniform, burns on his exposed skin. Headsman takes a step back towards the open elevator, ensuring he doesn't get flanked. Murphy activates a power of his axe, a radiation burst. Straightjacket fails his save with a 14, suffering a lethal hit. Murphy makes an opposed grapple check, scoring 25 versus 24 to escape the grapple. (He used a villian point on a 20 score). "I didn't give you punks enough credit. Time to get serious," he says, assuming a more defensive stance. The spiders clatter around.  Straightjacket feels one prick him, then sees it scamper towards the elevator.  Johan feels a similar prick, though Vincent manages to avoid the one chasing him around.  The two manage to retreat past Headsman into the elevator. Initiatives: Speed Demon 27, Murphy 23, X12 19, Johan 18, Straightjacket 16, Cosmo 15 X12, Johan and SJ are up Amazon: 2HP usedAnna: 1HPCosmo: 3HP used, 2 lethalLoki: 1 lethalMendez: 1 stunMetal Mistress: 1HP used, 1 lethalMultibrain: 1HP usedRebound: 1 lethal, knocked outSpeed Demon: 3HP used, 1 lethalStealer: 4HP used, 3 stun, 4 lethal, dyingStraighjacket: 1HP used, 2 lethalTara: 2HP used, 1 lethal Kevin2: 1 VP, 1 stunMia Toan (Dazzler): 2VP used, 1 stunMurphy (Headsman): 3VP used, 1 stunShadow: 1VP used, 1 stunSho: 1VP used</blockquote>
