Project: Daedalus (Issue #2)

Sarah
Inititive: Harpy 24, EM 24, Sarah 17, Guard 12, Jaya 9, Clay 7, Granite 2

Sarah mentally lashes out at the singing woman. She screams out as she throws back her head, falling back onto the bed, looking dazed.

OOC: Sarah hits with a 22. Harpy's Will save is 12, rerolls lower, 12 is used. Harpy takes 1 stun hit and is Stunned.

The guard raises his rifle and fires at the man. It hits him directly, but the energy simply crackles about him and dissipates. He looks quite angry.

Jaya stares down at Sarah, a look of horrified realization marking her face. "Oh my God, this is my fault," she mutters. A quick decision and a look of resignation later, she reaches down and touches Sarah as her eyes turn to tiny twin mercurial pools. Sarah’s body flares with silver energy and her sickness quickly fades away, leaving her feeling very energized and acutely aware of her surroundings.

OOC: Sarah has been Boosted. She now has +6 to her Con and to her powers (though her powers are still limited to +8, for stacking bonus purposes) and the Con damage and fatigue are gone.

She looks up at the male elite, bits of electrical energy still arcing harmlessly about his body. She raises a hand in his direction, her silvery eyes gleaming brightly in the darkened area. A faint silver haze surrounds the large man as a look of shock appears on his face.

OOC: Neutralize attack against Clay succeeds, despite his use of a VP to reroll the save.

The man, now obviously quite panicked, ducks back behind the remaining intact part of the clear wall of the cell, looking around hopefully as though expecting something.

The woman, still sitting on the bed, forces herself back to her feet. “Clay, what’s the matter?” she says, looking at him hiding behind the wall. She turns back, anger on her face, and begins to sing once more. You’re quite certain she has the most beautiful voice you’ve ever heard. You notice the guard lower his weapon, a look of serene peace overcoming him. Jaya wobbles a bit on her feet but shakes the attack off. Sarah feels the barriers around her mind have strengthened to the point that the attack doesn’t even affect her.

OOC: Will saves: Jaya: 9, rerolls, 18, saves. Guard:12, fails and is paralysed.

Suddenly, a bolt of electricity arcs from a lighting fixture in the room, but outside the cell, and hits the floor. It’s EM, and she’s brought someone with her, a large man made completely from grey stone. EM looks around in surprise and a barely perceptible field raises around her.

OOC: Sarah is up.

Tyrone, Kiro
Inititive: Rogers: 20, Guard: 10, Shimmering Samurai: 8, Tyroc: 6

“Rogers! Are you crazy?! Drop the weapon, now!” the guard says, raising his own energy rifle at the other.

Kiro doesn’t wait for a response. As Tyroc drops from the assault, the young martial artist bolts forward and launches a flying kick at Rogers. He connects directly in the chest of the guard and sends him flying down the hallway. He lands with a groan.

OOC: Attack roll 1, reroll 10, result 22, a hit. Damage save failed, Rogers is unconscious.

Aaron, Miguel
Inititive: Elementor: 16, Screaming Eagle: 16, Mimic: 17, Jersey Devil: 15, Eric Nash: 14

Screaming Eagle, now with a clear shot at the glowing elite lets out a piercing scream that nails Nash directly in the head. He emits a rather loud roar of his own as he’s thrown back into the room to smash into the partially destroyed cell that he had escaped from. Miguel, not wanting to let up on the attack, fires a wave of kinetic energy at the prone, but angry, prisoner. It strikes him and he emits another loud grunt.

OOC: VP to boost Eagle’s power, she hits, giving him another stun hit and Stunning him. Mimic hits as well with a total of 18, and using his surprise attack feat on the stunned Nash, causes another stun hit, after he uses a VP to reroll his dam. save.

Jersey Devil launches himself forward and barrels into Nash. The attack knocks the slowly rising man back onto his back. He lays there, looing like he's been hit by a train, but continues to struggle to his feet.

OOC: Elementor is up.

Conditions:
Elementor: 1 HP
Sarah: Boost @ +6 (Con, powers)
Shimmering Samurai: 1 HP
Tyroc: 1 stun, fatigued, unconscious, 1 HP


NPC Conditions:
Clay: Neutralized, 1 VP

ooc: I am unsure if this is a new round of combat

Miguel will hold his attack until he can get a clear line of fire.

(If Nash is still stunned then re-roll attack on anything less then 15. If not then re-roll on anything less then 11.)

Sarah glances up at Jaya curiously, giving her a 'we'll-talk-later' look, then returns her focus on the Pantheon members. One hand still stretched out toward the cell, she lifts the other to focus on the two newly arrived elites. Using the power boost, Sarah reaches out with another mental blast.

POWERS: Will use extra effort to be able to use mental blast against multiple targets, hoping to strike all four oponents. If HP not used for pre-specified reroll, will use to negate fatigue.
 

"Fine, Eagle, just ignore me then. I'll just keep blasting away until someone tells me something more useful to do." True to his word, Aaron unleashes another energy blast towards Nash.

"I'm thinking pummeling him into the ground was a big part of it cabrito."
 


Sarah
Initiative: Harpy 24, EM 24, Sarah 17, Guard 12, Jaya 9, Clay 7, Granite 2

Sarah, gleaming in a silvery light, focuses on the four Pantheon members in the room, attempting to invade their minds. All four of them scream out, clutching their heads, collapsing to the floor. The only one left moving is Harpy, who lies back on her bed, clutching her head and moaning.

OOC: 9 for attack, hitting isn't necessary in an area attack though. Ref saves (DC 18): EM 9, rerolls, 17, fails; Granite 8, rerolls, 11, fails; Harpy 19, succeeds; Clay 14, fails. Will saves (DC 23 (19 for Harpy)): EM 3, 1 stun, Unconscious; Granite 11, 1 stun, Unconscious; Harpy 11, 1 stun, Stunned; Clay 7, rerolls, 12, 1 stun, Unconscious. (Holy ****...that was not supposed to happen :p ).

The guard shakes his head, coming out of his stupor. He sees Harpy trying to push herself back off of the bed and raises his rifle and fires at her, a very angry look on his face. The blast of electrical energy strikes her, making her arch her back and convulse until she no longer moves.

OOC: Guard hits, Harpy fails her save badly and is unconscious.

"Hey, alright, enough, she's down," Jaya yells out to the guard, putting a hand on his weapon to lower it.

"Dumb bitch, she got in my head," the guard spits in reply, keeping his eye on the group of elites.

Jaya turns to Sarah, "Wow, good job."

Tyrone, Kiro
Initiative: Wraith 27, Guard: 10, Shimmering Samurai: 8, Tyroc: 6

Soon after Rogers' body hits the floor, a tall, gaunt, shadowy figure rises from his body. It appears to hesitate a moment for saying in a whispery voice, "I will not go back to my cell, you cannot stop me."

"What the hell is that?" the guard says, firing his weapon at the ghostly figure. He fumbles the weapon as he fires, though, and misses.

OOC: Guard misses. Sammy-boy is up.

Aaron, Miguel
Initiative: Elementor: 16, Screaming Eagle: 16, Mimic: 17, Jersey Devil: 15, Eric Nash: 14

Aaron shoots another bolt of flame at the stunned elite. The flame doesn't seem to hurt him much though.

OOC: Attack roll 2, reroll 10, result 17, hit. Attack doesn't affect him.

"I told you, stop him, keep him off balance, don't let him get away!" Eagle yells back. She swoops closer to the hole and lets loose another scream. Nash finally gains his feet, an even angrier look on his face. The sound blast nails him once again, and once again he falls back on his ass.

OOC: Eagle hits, Nash fails dam save badly, rerolls, and still fails, taking another stun his and in once more Stunned.

Miguel follows that with another blast of his own. The kinetic energy slams Nash's body up against the wall of his cell, and he slumps over, unconscious.

Jersey Devil looks down at him. "Geez, big guy can sure take a beating..."

OOC: Attack roll 1 (am I rolling bad tonight or what?), reroll 10, result 17, hit. Nash fails his save badly, and finally falls.

Conditions:
Elementor: 1 HP
Mimic: 1 HP
Sarah: Boost @ +5 (Con, powers), 1 HP
Shimmering Samurai: 1 HP
Tyroc: 1 stun, fatigued, unconscious, 1 HP

"Back outside, Miguel," she tells him, also nodding to Jersey Devil come back out. "We need to make sure no one else tries to escape..." she says before flying off to circle the building. "Neutron, can you get the wall? She yells down to him, seeing him wheeling towards your location.

"You got it, bosslady," he replies. "Nothing like a broken leg to make one feel useful," he adds with a bit of sarcasm.

Jersey Devil smiles at Miguel as they leave the room. "Yeah, he gave our entire team a helluva lot more trouble when we put him here. But then he got the drop on us...that and we were trying to stop him from blowing up a nuclear reactor."

Sarah finally gets to her feet. "We need to get them restrained before they come too. I don't know how long they'll stay under." She turns to the guard. " See abouit getting a Medic down here to keep them sedated until you can find appropriate containment for them."
