[M&M3] Astonishing Tales of Centropolis Vol. #3, Issue 1 ‘This Island Apocalypse’

[GreenKarl]

Princess Starlight's rambling does indeed distract the guards as they look at each other somewhat nervously, when suddenly Rumble launches himself into a group of them!!! The street fighter throws three of them crashing back into the jungle. One ducked his fists and feet and slashed at Rumble with a suddenly draw sword but missed him. The the leader like shouted in something that sounded distinctively German and they remaining guards openned fire on the group with advanced laser pulse rifles!! Princess Starlight caught to shots while Silver Streak was hit with a bolt!!!

Princess Starlight
HP: 3; Condition: -1 wound

---

OOC: [-]The Princess took a defensive stance. I intended that to be the defend action, though I should have been more explicit.[/-] toughness 1 [roll0] vs DC 21 (fail) toughness 2 [roll1] vs DC 21 (success) She is also going to use her flash attack. It's fortitude based so she doesn't know it will fail.

The shots graze her but only one leaves a mark. She flies forward to avoid hitting Rumbler. She sings out "Sunny Rays of Chromatic Goodness" the cone washes over most of the guards. The guards don't even flinch at the bright blast of light. "Poo," she curses. "They must have eye protection in those goggles they're not wearing." She mutters under her breath. "Something's funny about these guys," she says aloud.

[GreenKarl]

GM: Silver Streak also sense a strong electro-field, very similar to the robot spider, coming off the security guards... its almost as if they are also robots!!!

Rumble continued to throw himself into the guards with a whirlwind of fists, kicks, and headbutts.

The Shadow
Apocalypse Island
Saturday, February 11, 2017/Night
Round 4

OOC: Just FYI, because I can’t remember if he mentioned it here, Max/Kitsune was moving house and he isn’t supposed to get internet until Tuesday.

Perception: 1D20+5 = [13]+5 = 18

Shadow shook the sting out of his hand as the robot spider fell apart. Even with the padded combat gloves, punching an armored robot without his super strength wasn’t the brightest idea.

Several heavily armed guards appeared and ordered them to freeze. From the opposite direction, Shadow noticed a reddish light coming from deeper in the jungle toward them.

As the violence broke out, Caleb slipped out of Princess Starlight’s light and into the comforting darkness. He moved up on one of the robot guards and punched it.

Pushing past the pain, Princess Starlight unleashes a flash over the security guards but much to her surprise they seemed totally unaffected by her power!!! The Shadow struck a nearby guard but the man got his rifle up to partial block it and his armor absorbed the best. The second guard that he struck was not so lucky as the Shadow's strike literally tears it in two!! This also confirms Silver Streak's warning as instead of blood and gore, advance machine parts and a white liquid spill out of the android instead!!! Kitsune blasts two more guards with lasers that appear out of the sky, destroying another android, while Silver Streak blows yet another apart! Then Rumble, racing around within the battle smashes four more of the android guards, leaving a solo survivor of the original group!

Showing no fear from the lost of its fellow team members the last guard shots a blast of laser fire at Rumble but misses. Then a flying man, sheathed in fire and who's skin appears to be very similar to lava busts out of the jungle canopy. He stop hovering some 30ft off the group and with a cruel grin unleashes a bolt of lava from his hands that strikes Princess Starlight full on!!!

GM: Initiative 9 – Rumble 27 - Security Team and Mount Merapi 26 - Princess Starlight 23 - the Shadow 18 - Kitsune 15 - Silver Streak [sblock=Rolls and Results]Shadow's 1st attack; guard Toughness save vs. DC 25: 1D20+6 = [19]+6 = 25, wow made it! Second guard; Toughness save vs. DC 25: 1D20+6 = [1]+6 = 7, too total failure! Kitsune uses multi-attack to hit two security guard (so -2 to hit) but they are Vulnerable (1/2 Dodge) because they did not sense her; Ranged blast +9: 1D20+7 = [15]+7 = 22, she hit both; security guards Toughness save vs. DC 24: 1D20+6 = [20]+6 = 26 1D20+6 = [6]+6 = 12, one made it, one failed. Silver Streak hit another guard; Toughness save vs. DC 24: 1D20+6 = [10]+6 = 16, failed. Rumble with takedown will get 4 guards again; Toughness save vs. DC 26: 1D20+6 = [5]+6 = 11 1D20+6 = [12]+6 = 18 1D20+6 = [15]+6 = 21 1D20+6 = [1]+6 = 7, all failed! So one guard left! Then security guard shots at Rumble; Ranged blast +6 (multi-attack) if it hits: 1D20+6 = [9]+6 = 15, missed!! Then Mount Merapi (can now view Rogue's Gallery) attacks the most obvious person Princess Starlight; Ranged blast +10 if it hits: 1D20+8 = [15]+8 = 23, oh he hit! Princess Starlight needs a Toughness save vs. DC 25[/sblock] Heroes Action

Princess Starlight
HP: 3; Condition: -2 wounds, Dazed (until next turn)
DC 25 toughness save: 1D20+6 = [13]+6 = 19

---

The Princess is hit with a bolt of lava from out of nowhere. Rattled, she turns off her light aura plunging the entire area in deep darkness. She then flies cautiously and quietly to a position putting the party between her and the newly arrived foe.

OOC: If necessary, shouldn't matter since he will have the rest of us to deal with: stealth [roll0] + whatever circumstance bonus darkness gives. (where was that roll when I was resisting?)
