She cuts loose a blast downward at Aerin so as not to hit any of the many, many containment units around by accident, but one of his elementals steps in the way of the blast, poofing to nothingness. Attack roll: 19 miss (strikes cover)Damage save (DC25): 19 (destroyed) A second magnetic blast streaks downward, and just as it is about to hit the man, who doesn't seem able to move out of the way, another elemental streaks in to block the shot! It suffers no better than the other one, vanishing, leaving only 7 elementals swirling about Aerin. HEROIC SURGE!!! Attack roll: 21 miss (strikes cover)Damage save (DC25): 10 (destroyed) Neutron isn't faring so well. In desperation he thrusts his hands towards where he hopes the Mole's head is, and blasts a black beam that turns into a wet cloud of mist. The mist surrounds the Mole's snout and eyes, but he doesn't look overly affected. "I am blind, you idiot," he growls, ears twitching. Then he sneezes, and his breathing seems labored. He sneezes again, then again, and keeps sneezing, but his ears start twitching, as if he can use them as well to help guide his actions!Attack roll: 14 hitsReflex save: 11 fails Result: Mole (already nearly blind) is under scent dazzle, rendering that blindsight sense useless. Anithos, exiting the office pauses for a moment, then nods towards the trucks as if agreeing with something. "I'll ready our exit," he says calmly to the Mole, who barely acknowledges the statement with a grunt, then Anithos vanishes. Johan rushes towards the three armored cars, making it there and creating two duplicates as his other two vanish. The two mercs that had the cannister Sanjay destroyed both draw weapons and line him up. He can see two more mercs carrying another cannister from the containment unit, hustling towards the middle truck. Anna's rockets fire and she launches through the air, launching a freezing ray at Flick. In the blink of an eye, an energy tendril snakes up, batting at the beam, knocking it down into the container. The container rocks slightly, but the freeze ray does nothing to puncture it's skin. Attack roll: 22 hitsDeflection roll: 27 succeeds Rebound slams into the roof, rebounding downward at Flick with ludicrous speed. He seems rather blue in the face, on the verge of losing consciousness. He bounces back upwards, away from the woman. Constitution check (DC11): 11 succeedsAttack roll: 14 (HP to re-roll becomes a 24)Damage save (DC 24): 8 (VP to re-roll becomes 20) fails (1S) Another pair of soldiers hustles out of the containment unit, enterring the middle truck and securing the cannister they hold within. One of the two cannisterless mercs slams the doors behind them and a force field springs up around the truck, making two such protected vehicles. The other merc shoots at Johan. Attack roll: 18 hits (duplicate is hit)Damage save (DC15): 13 fails (1S - KO!) ... round 4...fight! With the only two surviving cannisters locked into two of the three armored cars, Flick puts a finger to her earpiece and says, "That's it! Anithos, do your thing and we're home free! Aerin, let's move!" Flick leaps down from the container, running towards the trucks. She comes right up behind Johan and slams her staff into the back of his neck. "Get lost, punk," she says with a confident as Johan reels from the clipping shot. Attack roll: 24 hits (real Johan is hit)Damage save (DC17): 3 (HP to re-roll becomes 12) fails (1S) Aerin sends his entire horde of elemental swarming at Metal Mistress and Mantis as he runs full out towards the trucks. As he gets to the first force field protected vehicle, he says "Recognize Aerin!" and passes right through the force field, opening the door and climbing behind the wheel. Four of the elementals swarm at Metal Mistress, while three attack Mantis. Attack rolls: MM -- 7, 11, 16, 20 (miss, miss, hit, hit); Mantis 12, 18, 15 (miss, miss, miss)Damage save (DC10): 20, 12 (successes) Vince, Loki and Straightjacket can do their actions. Leadership saved Johan from being stunned and Rebound from falling unconscious hehe. Lancheng, ChinaOctober 25, 2120The truck bounces along the dirt road towards Pai Mei and soon enough, you arrive on the outskirts of the town. Everything seems relatively normal in town, though the townsfolk look oddly at most of you, decked out in EPIC uniforms. Li passes through the town fairly quickly, and after about fifteen minutes more travel, parks on the side of the road.  Pointing into the forest and towards the hills a few miles distant, Li says, "The hills are that way. We should probably go on foot from here, yes? There are caves all around those hills; we will have to find the right ones." Let me know what you guys are going to do <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
