Project: Daedalus (Issue #1)

[Calinon]

Tyroc blinks spots from Aaron's flare up and raises his force shield on instinct.

"Holy crap," says Tyroc, stunned at the display.

Seeing fire blaze over Jaya's unconscious form, he uses his powers to pick her up and bring her to where he is standing, between the truck and SUV, letting his force shield cover her as well, watching Aaron in case the sneak attacker appears and he can stun him.

POWERS: Force field (8) -- free; kinetic energy control (8) -- half; force field by touch to Jaya -- free?; ready an attack (energy blast - duel damage stunt (8)) -- half

OOC: I gotcha now. Notes are there so I can keep track of my half/full/free actions and make sure I don't do anything wacko. First combat is always hard.

Round One, Con't

Initiative: Cheetah: 31, Screaming Eagle: 22, Mimic: 18, Jersey Devil: 17, Random: 16, Elementor: 15, Shimmering Samurai: 14, Tyroc: 13, Minotaur: 12, Neutron: 9, Sarah: 3

Aaron jumps from the SUV screaming at the unseen opponent. His form immediately is engulfed in flames. He throws his arms forward towards the road and strikes something there. Random immediately becomes visible as he screams, his body catching fire. He falls to the ground and lays still, flames still burning about his body.

Elementor: Fire field and force field up. Hits with fire blast with attack roll 18 vs DC 17. Damage save fails.

Kiro jumps from the tree. A sword of light appears in his hands as a warm yellow glow surrounds him. His brings his sword before him and focuses his ki, preparing for battle.

Kiro: Light Katana created. Force Field up. Ki Boost engaged [+4]

Tyrone also jumps from the SUV. Waves undulate from beneath Jaya's body and carry her to him. He kneels and touches her surroundeing them both with a wavy field of energy.

Tyroc: Used Kinetic Control to get Jaya. Brought up Force Feild. I'll let you change your other half action if you like, as it's no longer applicable.

Minotaur runs charges forawrd, hurdling the fence with ease.

Minotaur: Double move with Jump (take 10; check 24; 5-foot high jump)

Neutron exits the aerodyne, running full out to keep up with his teammates. "What's happening over there, Eagle?" he asks.

Sarah drops what she's carrying and makes her way to Tyrone's side and kneels beside the doctor's form.

Sarah: Half move to Jaya. Force Field up. You can also restate your other half action if you like. Other than that, it's time for Round 2...and the maps are updated.

 

[Calinon]

Seeing that the blonde mutant is down, Tyrone takes hold of Sarah's shoulder, extending his force field about her as well, looking about in case another unknown mutant makes their appearance.

 

[Deva]

Sarah drops what she's carrying and makes her way to Tyrone's side and kneels beside the doctor's form.

Sarah: Half move to Jaya. Force Field up. You can also restate your other half action if you like.

Sarah looks around, her heart thumping rapidly beneath her chest. She sees Blondey Boy go up in flames and hears Minotaur tear through the fence. She looks up at Tyrone. "We've got to stop this before someone else gets hurt."

Knowing that she would have no chance stopping the Minotaur, she focuses her sight and her mind on Kiro.

POWER:Telepathy(15) - I believe its line of sight(?)
ACTIONS: She will project her thoughts into Kiro's mind, trying to reason with him. Will spend a Hero Point to succeed. If successfull, Kiro will hear the following in his mind.

Listen to me, Kiro, if you fight them and you hurt them, you will only succeed in convincing them that we are the enemy that they percieve us to be. The best course of action now is a retreat until we can prove we are the victims. You have to trust someone sometime, Kiro, trust me please!

"They've already shown us that they are our enemy by attacking us! And how do you expect to retreat from them if they have an aerodyne? I don't wish to see anyone hurt, but I will not stand by as we are taken down! But if you and the others do, then we're as good as back in the hell of a prison!" Kiro thinks back to Sarah.

OOC: The thoughts and opinions expressed above are that of the PC and not the DM, please do not perceive it as such, and have a nice pirate-talking day.

 

[Mimic]

Sam, come with me.

Miguel will run at superspeed north to the cluster of trees with (hopefully) Sam. Once in the semi-concealment of the trees Miguel will stop and turn to Sam.

Ok, here's the plan. Twiddledee and Twiddledumb over there. he says sarcastically to Sam, point to Max and Kiro Are going to last about 5 seconds going head to head with AF. If I can lead one of them over here, we can doubleteam him and I can mimic his powers and cause mayhem within their ranks. So stay hidden and lets hope for the best.

OOC:If Sam doesn't follow he will still head towards the trees and wait for an oportunity to strike.

Round Two
Maps

Initiative: Cheetah: 31, Screaming Eagle: 22, Mimic: 18, Jersey Devil: 17, Random: 16, Elementor: 15, Shimmering Samurai: 14, Tyroc: 13, Minotaur: 12, Neutron: 9, Sarah: 3

Sam leaps from the van, changing shape to her hybrid form as she does. "Hey, good looking!" she says to Miguel, who now looks exactly like her. She then notices the man lying on the ground burning and Jaya lying unconscious and Kiro and Minotaur heading towards the aerodyne that had just landed. "What the hell...? So it's a fight they want, is it?" she growls angrily, unsheathing her claws. She listens to Miguel's plan. "Oooh, good idea..." She heads for the trees, stopping at one she looks up to find a branch to jump up to.

"The view is kind of obstructed," Screaming Eagle says in response to Neutron, looking in with her keen eyesight. "My God, there's a fight! Someone is burning! Damn that Strafe! Sorry guys, but I need to go on ahead..." she says as she increases her speed an elevates somewhat to get better veiw of the situation.

SE: She is now approx. 450 feet from Minotaur and Sam and 30 feet in the air.

Mimic races alongside Sam to the trees, hiding behind another one and waiting.

Jersey Devil curses, "Dammit, why are my wings so puny?" He tries to keep up to Eagle, but to no avail.

OOC: Elementor is up.

 

[Elementor]

"Why cant you just leave us alone??!!"

Aaron changes into Earth form and drops the 2 feet he was flying above the ground to land beside Random. If Random is unconscious, I will move the earth to first douse the flames on him and then to encase him in a solid rock dome (with just a few little holes in the top for air, I'm not mean ya know. Arrrrr). I am hoping his powers are based on line of sight and this way even if he comes around he will be out of the battle.

If Random is not unconscious, he gets a rocky fist to the noggin instead. Then the earth moving thing can happen once he is unconscious.

Power: Change to Earth form gaining Super-strength and Protection. Telekinesis of Earth can move up to 6400 lbs of Earth, rock, pavement etc. Sorry about the hero point thing, I thought if an action was unsuccessful you could use a hero point to reroll.

 

[Calinon]

Random, Tyroc thinks to himself. He's not AF. That means...

"There are going to be more," he says suddenly, releasing his grip on the two ladies. He crouches, a wave of force building under him and launches himself straight into the air, turning to look for other incoming attackers.

POWERS: Flight (5 foot per rank would make my speed 40/80/160 right? If so I think my running is 70/140/280) -- half action, 40 feet up; Maintaining my force field on myself -- free action; ready an attack -- half action

Readied attack: Should I see a threat close enough, I'll cut loose with an energy blast: duel damage. Should there be a group and they be close enough together, I'll use a hero point to make my blast area affect (if I can)

Round Two, Con't
Maps

Initiative: Cheetah: 31, Screaming Eagle: 22, Mimic: 18, Jersey Devil: 17, Random: 16, Elementor: 15, Shimmering Samurai: 14, Tyroc: 13, Minotaur: 12, Neutron: 9, Sarah: 3

Aaron drops to the ground, and as he lowers his fiery sheath, his body turns to stone. He gestures towards the Random, and the road bulges beneath the fallen eilte, who makes no move to stop himself from being entombed in earth.

Elementor: Elemental Snare succeeds and is not resisted.

Kiro rushes forward to meet the assault of the aggressors, easily leaping the fence in his way.

SS: Boost @ +3, Jump check 25 vs DC 18, successful

Tyroc lauches himself into the air, searching for any new opponents. What he sees is surprising: a large stream of what looks like sand winding through the trees behind the house. He raises his arms and a wave pulsates away from him hitting the thing and sending sand flying. However, the stream ahead and behind the blast continues to move forward unabaited, and the sand that was blasted quickly reforms with the main stream as it continues to slither forward.

Tyroc: Attack hits with an 18 (with -2 range penalty), but the attack seems to have no effect.

Minotaur, roars as he charges forward with wild abandon.

Minotaur: Sprints (no dex mod until next action).

Neutron runs forward, saying to Jersey Devil, "Hey, at least you can fly, man."

Sarah is up
