Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread II

Hope looks at the others. "The illusions probably aren't going to work as well as we thought. What if Nightweaver shadow-walks us to the bridge? That we we still have the upper hand, he won't know what hit him before it's too late,"

 

[Shayuri]

Viridian nods.

"Sounds good to me. I'll leave the decoys down here. Might delay reinforcements at least."

 

[Raylis]

"Sounds good, better now then never.

Hope mentally prepared herself for the battle ahead. She knew quite well that nature spoke to Aron, in what way she could not discern, but she guessed that they were probably evenly matched, for though Aron was older, he was no native of earth, no child of Gaia. No matter how strong he was on his own planet, that power would be muted here.

She prayed that was so anyway. She wasn't counting on it.

The group continues to fake attacking the fake heroes as guards, and Viridian is even able to make their fake guard selves speak Greek (not only useful for ancient texts!). Realizing that this isn't really a sustainable method, the group changes paths, leaving Ares' men to surround and attack the illusions. Wren puts up some invisible walls to protect them and to prevent Ares' men from accidently blowing the whole place up by hitting creates full of bombs and other volatile substances.

Nightweaver draws the shadows over the group, and everyone feels themself move in the darkness, where they find themselves in a somewhat shadowy corner of the bridge (not really enough to hide in though).

The bridge is rather large, and the group is easily noticed. Four guards, eight technicians with sidearms, and a large, armored man who looks like Ares turn to face you. The technicians are all at various control panels, the guards are in a semi-circle around the door, and the man that looks like Ares (but isn't) is at the helm.

[Victim]

"Drop your weapons!" Shooting Star yells, firing a flash burst at each technician, guard, and the fake Ares. I hope that nothing can go too wrong if those guys aren't minding their stations. Hey... That guy doesn't quite look right. Is this a trap? It was Hope's idea... "Wait, that's not the guy!" She'll try to dive behind a workstation for cover, if possible.
-------------------------------------------

Standard Action: Dazzle (visual) +11 Area (Burst 55 ft radius) Selective Attack. DC 21 Ref for 1/2, DC 21/15 Ref vs Blind

Move Action: Head for cover. She'll get behind Nitro if nothing else is available.

Free Action: Go Prone.

Def: 23/15. Toughness +9. Prone. Fine. HP 2?

Hope aims a lightening bolt at the armoured man. If he is the real Aron, he'll be able to deflect her bolt. If he isn't... she looked grim as a cool seeping wind blew out from around her, sensing and tasting for that which could not easily be seen.

"Viridian, check for illusions. If we can do it, so can they!" she whispers, her voice light against the other witches ear as she uses her wind born words ability.


ooc:
Sense air flow to detect that which is invisible or otherwise not seen. Also masterplan, notice and whatever else she has to determin who is the real Aron.

 

[Elric]

"Remember, he's able to change his face!" Hope shouts, aiming a lightning bolt for the guy at the helm. (Knock out only, she doesn't want him dead. Yet.)

(OOC: No shouting this. How would the heroes know this, aside from the fact that they were just on the receiving end off impersonating the Geldarans. You can say this one quietly over the commlink)

Nitro cracks his knuckles. A God of War. Even if he's really a space alien. Either way, pretty cool. Wait, that guy's not the real him? That's too bad. Well, he looks like him. Good enough.


"Sidearms and suits of armor? They're no match for a good flying kick. Doesn't even have to be a flying kick to the balls."

With that, Nitro launches himself at the armored man (charge, accurate attack 2, +12 to hit, 12 damage, using Improved Grab to initiate a grapple by grabbing him on a hit).

(If he's down or the real Ares has shown up and this guy looks like not much of a threat, do this to Ares instead. If he's down and no Ares is around, go after a guard- if they're minions, taking 10 on the attack roll and not charging- using Defensive Attack 3 and Accurate Attack 3 for total of 18 to hit, 11 damage).

 

[Vanifae]

Apollo blinks, “Nice likeness…” he takes careful aim with his light bow and fires a single powerful shot at the fake Ares.

Ranged Attack +11 with Light Bow, Toughness save of 26 if it succeeds.

 

[DM_Matt]

Bump.
