Guardians -Welcome to the Wild Wild West

[Calinon]

Longhorn 1/4, 4S/0L, Unconscious

I'm reposting initiatives because I had to figure out where we were in the order and had to keep flipping back and forth

Initiative: Leprechaun-25, Pheonix-24, Lightspeed-23, Aztec-20, Whisper-19, Tornado-15, Longhorn-12, Banjax-11, Sgt. Brano-10, Karma-8, MK 193s-5, Carbon-4

We're coming up on round 3, I think, if it's Carbon's turn.

Linda once more spends a hero point to try to wake the heck up. If she doesn't succeed, she will lay there, now fatigued, and get trashed by Karma shortly If she does succeed...

"I am getting real, real tired of this," Linda growls, muscles burning from her injuries and the effort of the last energy blast. Energy bursting into form around her hands and feet, she slams both fists into the ground, propelling herself up and launching herself towards Sergeant Brano with reckless abandon, her growl turning into a scream of anger as she tries to knock him into next week.

Here we go:
1. Extra effort to gain the instant stand stunt based off of her Strike ability if she needs to in order to get to Brano; otherwise, extra effort to boost her strike by +2 for the round.
2. Move to get to Brano
3. Attack Brano with Strike (Lethal) +14 (+8 +3[STR] +4[PA] -1[Fatigue]):
.......All out attack at +3 (my maximum based on my dodge bonus)
.......Power attack at +2 (my maximum based on BAB)
.........Total attack bonus +7 +3 -4 -1 (fatigue) -2 (dazed) = +3
NOTE: If she didn't need instant stand to get to Brano, subtract two from power attack, giving her +5 to hit and keeping the strike at +14.

Defense for Longhorn after that is down to: 17 -1 (fatigue) -3 (AOA) = 13
Deflection is going to be +8 this round (+8 +3[DEX] -2[dazed] -1[fatigued]

Training Day - Round 3

Leprechaun-25, Pheonix – 24, Lightspeed – 23, Aztec – 20, Whisper – 19, Tornado – 15, Longhorn – 12, Banjax – 11, Sgt. Brano – 10, Karma – 8, MK(if alive)-5, Carbon - 4

Carbon stands quietly waiting until Karma said she could touch her. Plus, he just got scolded, kind of.

Heavy breathing resounds in the ears closest to Leprechaun as he stands. A large dent has appeared in the right side of the formerly beautiful silver armor. The same hair raising jolt of electricity flies from the three pronged gauntlet of Leprechaun’s right arm. The new dent shifts Steve’s aim smashing the jolt into the ground below Sgt. Brano.

OOC: Attack of 12 misses.

The sound of crackling air follows a streaking pellet of fire straight from the outstretched hand of Phoenix into the chest of the last standing robot. Although, rocked by the blast MK 193-1 still stands.

OOC: Attack 23 hits. MK Dmg save is 16(VP 15) vs DC 23: -1 hard.

A second streak of light follows the flaming pellet. This time the robot falls as a huge “BOOM!” sounds across the field. The MK 193’s body slams into the back wall as a huge dent in its chest is outlined by the blue glow of electrical wires buzzing. Lightspeed slides to a halt with an “I’m awesome!” smirk on his face.

OOC: Attack 20 hits. MK Dmg save is 10 vs. DC 24: Destroyed

”’scuse me ma’am this bug bothering you? I’ll squish it.” The deep rumbling that escapes the huge gold form as it crashes towards Sg. Branno echoes out of a canyon. A huge fist slams down towards the armored man.

OOC: Attack 23 hits. Sgt. Brano Dmg save is 32 vs DC 23. Saves

Your eyes go out of focus for a second and you hear the scratching of nails on a chalk board as your psyche feels the aftermath of a metal assault.

OOC: Whisper tries to Mind Control. Power check is 16 vs DC of 14 - Succeeds. Sgt. Brano’s Will save is 7(VP 14) fails vs DC 18. Will see results on Sgt Brano’s turn

A flash of lightning slams behind the flying form of Sgt. Brano. An unhappy noise comes from Tornado.

OOC: Attack 8 misses.

Longhorn’s eyes flash open only a moment before two solid glass divits appear where her hands used to be. Three pounding steps and a short leap the pink fist flies towards Sgt. Brano’s back. All of the fury she could muster didn’t fix Linda’s spinning eyes or the distraction a massive headache provided. Her fist whistles several inches to the left of silvery armor.

OOC: Attack of 15 misses.

“Now I get to hit someone in charge, legally. Nice.” Banjax pipes up from next to the dwarfing form of Aztec. A blue bolt of energy barely misses the quickly retracting fist of Longhorn.

OOC: Attack of 8 misses(HP 8) goes to 15 misses.

Sgt. Brano quickly pulls up and lands on the ground taking up the position of a classic roman statue.

OOC: He is easier to hit now

Karma having dodged the speeding armor man is somewhat disappointed and somewhat overjoyed to not have to test the limits of her abilities. To celebrate a purple ray springs from her hand and flies straight into Statue Brano.

OOC: Attack of 12 hits. Sgt. Brano Dmg save vs DC 27 is 20. Fails by 7. 1 stun and stunned.

Carbon steps forward and brushes Karma’s arm meekly with his finger tips. The light touch has amazing results as now there are two strikingly beautiful woman standing next to each other.

OOC: I am assuming Karma chooses to let Carbon copy her. Carbon now gets Karmacity. You absorb 7 ranks of energy.

Carbon, 3/4, 4S/0L, Absorption 8

Carbon has a moment of serious disorientation as he physically changes gender. Out of the side of his mouth he complains to Whisper, "You were supposed to make it not sound creepy!"

Carbon then looks back at Karma with a strained look on his face. "Creepy!? I just turned into a girl!!! I mean, how do you even move around with these things?" Carbon grabs his newly formed breasts as he says this, then instantly is appalled by his own gesture and tears his hands off them and throws his arms to the side.

Pulling himself out of his shock, Carbon then lets loose a blast, with the energy he just acquired, at the last robot to fire at him.

OOC:
1) Half action wasted dealing with Carbon's change.
2) Half action to fire at the last robot to attack him.

 

[Super Girl]

Karma, 3/4, 0 S/ 0 L, Absorbtion +8

Nodding in satisfaction, Karma quickly focuses her remaining negative energy and lets it loose in a blast at the Sgt. "Go down," she mutters vexedly, wishing that the armored suit would just fall over because she wanted it too. She turns at the feel of Carbon's touch.

Karma looks at Carbon in horror as the mirror Karma gropes herself, and she slaps the copycat for feeling her up, or herself, or, whatever, Carbon was feeling up Karma, and it was not cool with the 19 year old in any sense of the world. "In what alternate reality is this not creepy? If you ever touch me, er you, er you know what I mean, touch us like that again, I am going to hurt you, a lot. My body is not a sex toy you perv." the starlet rants at the copycat.

OOC:
Half Action: Use the last 8 ranks of her karma to fire off at the SGT
Half action: I was thinking more like a move action or something to slap Carbon, it definitely wont hurt him, and he is within reach.

 

[Keia]

Phoenix [Brandon Laine] HPs 2/4, 1S / 1L Armor +7 (Energy Field +1)

Phoenix moved toward the last remaining combatant, letting a focused blast out at the Sergeant.

OOC: Half Action: Fly 40'. Half action: Attack, Energy blast (using a extra effort to add Penetrating or to increase PL by 2) To hit total +7, DC 23 L(base), using HP to ignore fatigue from last round, Dodge only vs. Sgt Brano (+2).

 

[Calinon]

Longhorn 2/4, 4S/0L, fatigued

Ignoring the friendly and sociable intercourse between her two comrades, and opting for barbeque versus getting knocked unconscious once more, Longhorn wastes no time in trying to thump the easier hit and obviously stunned Sergeant Brano with a reckless double handed blow to the top of his skull.

HP to counter exhaustion.
All out attack at +3
Power attack at +3
Extra effort to boost her strength by +2 for the round
Attack +7 (7 +3 [AOA] -3 [PA] -1 [fatigue] +1 [STR from EE])
...with Strike +14 (+8 +3 [STR] -1 [fatigue] +1 [STR from EE] +3 [PA])
......lethal damage
.........and if by chance he stands there and takes it (say because he thinks he's a 12 year old girl and can only cower), make that all a coup de grace action [critical hit automatic adding +5 to the damage save DC] and add another point of power attack for a DC35 damage save. Lindsay may not be the only one who can play with brains...

End Combat

BOOM! ZZZZZ! Ka-POW! SPRAMSH!

The Guardians swarm over the paralyzed Sgt. Brano slamming him with fists and fire.

You fall from a tall tower of blackness slamming into the soft chair of the VR chamber.

“Very good. The picnic food will be set out in the garden for 1800 hours. We start at 0600 tomorrow morning. Get cleaned up.” The radio voice comes through the helmet’s ear phones.

The doors of your chambers slide open as you remove the helmet and place it in its cubby. Stripping off the medical patches you see the other members of the team starting to stand and stretch.

Your muscles feel tired and your body drenched from sweat and exhausted. You look down over at the clock and see that it is only 1500. Several of you stop and translate that back to standard time and let out a little groan.

Carbon:
You hear a timid very feminine voice in your head.

I had set the thought web up to work like a radio. That’s why Lucy heard what you thought directly. Sorry, I hope I didn’t cause too much trouble.

 

[Super Girl]

As the group emerges from the pods, Lucy stares frostily at Carbon, not a very friendly look. "I think from now on, you should only copy guys, that way when your being a perv and playing with your new body, its not so disgusting. Never, ever copy me again Carbon, is that clear?" she asks him angrily, loud enough for the others to over hear.

Shaking her head, she turns to Linda, Lindsey and Sandra, "Lets go get showered, and then find somewhere to relax until the picnic." she says, heading back into the locker room, mumbling about pervs. She quickly kicks off the damp spandex suit, leaving it by her locker, and heads into the shower portion of the locker room. Turning the shower head on to full blast and hot, the starlet stood just soaking in the heat, letting the warmth run over her and sluice away the sweat.

 

[Calinon]

Linda stays in her pod until most of the others have removed their headsets before speaking into hers.

"I thought ya wanted us to demonstrate our powers, not throw us into an ambush with grenades," Linda says hotly into her microphone, keeping her voice down. "Ya'd never throw a group of untrained recruits into a situation like that, VR or not. Hell, you wouldn'ta put trained soldiers into a situation where they are blown up with grenades before they can even react! Ya might put special ops into something like that after a few months of trainin; I got no clue about no special ops training.

"Not everyone is made of metal or has a force field or armor or whatever. Maybe that's the point. Unless ya just wanted to illustrate that the people with the toughest skin are the most useful and the rest of us shouldn't be here. Maybe I'm just here to be the goddamn pilot, Sir. Lindsay's our raido system. Ya already knew my weakness against attacks like that, so if ya wanted me outa the picture, ya shouldn'ta put me in the damn chamber in the first place. And other than being a radio, what the hell is Lindsay supposed to do against a robot?

"That whole excersise was absolutely pointless, Sir."

"I think from now on, you should only copy guys, that way when your being a perv and playing with your new body, its not so disgusting. Never, ever copy me again Carbon, is that clear?" she asks him angrily, loud enough for the others to over hear.

Kevin, unable to even look Lucy in the eyes, just stares down at the ground in front of his feet. His face is clearly red with embarrassment.
