Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread II

[Fangor the Fierce]

Wren immediately goes to work, letting his Healing Power take over to aid in Star's recovery as swiftly as possible. Hopefully, it would be quick enough for the two of them to make a difference in the fight outside.

'Open the Tube, I can heal her myself, and much quicker than this."

Healing Rank 10

As Star comes to, Wren smiles down on her, saying, "Had a nice nap there? Looks like the fun has started already, and we have a front row seat waiting on us. Think you can manage now?"

 

[Victim]

"What? Wren..." Star says, somewhat disoriented. "Where am I? What's going on? How long?"

"It still hurts and I feel sort of sick." She struggles to rise into the air and looks around. "What's this coccoon thing? Where is everyone else?"

 

[DM_Matt]

"What? Wren..." Star says, somewhat disoriented. "You're not getting me out of here? What's going on? How long?"

(IIRC, Star's injuries will require more than one heal.)

"It still hurts." Especially since the crushing defeat part hasn't gone away, and probably is about to be repeated. She struggles to her feet. "They gave me a bunch of different drugs too; I still feel sort of funny." So, no, basically. And I'm not so happy about defending the people who just hurt me... Protecting them isn't the only way to keep that technology out of Barrington's hands.

(BTW, Star doesn't remember anything since she got shot down, and is exhausted. She would have needed a heal for dying, disabled, staggered, injured x3 and bruised x3, and the chamber is slow (takes a couple hours and she was only in it a few minutes), so after one heal, shed just have lost the disabled and dying conditions.)

Overwhelmed by the complexity and intensity of the combat, Viridian spends crucial seconds groping for a course of action. The telepathic message hits a chord though, and she calls out, "Control Freak's here! He's the one who keeps trying to control our machines! We have to to stop him!"

Of course, she realizes, they have no idea where he is.

Seeing that Hope is trying to take advantage of the flickering shield, Viridian turns her attention to the oncoming suits and vehicles. They had pilots. They weren't just robots. Maybe...

She takes her amulet in her hand and closes her eyes, pushing her fears aside for a moment.

"The great wheel turns...that which you do is returned to you three times. Thus is the balance kept. Thus is the balance kept. Let those who spread fear feel it now, thrice over."

She opens her eyes and focuses on the enemy forces.

"Thus is the balance kept."

The spell is invisible, soundless, tasteless, odorless. There is no change in the wind, or sand...but those in the advancing army are suddenly aware, keenly aware, of the danger they're in, of the fragility of life, and most of all, of the wrong they've done...and the retribution they have incurred.

(Emotion control: fear, Will DC 21, rank 11 area effect...as many guys as I can fit in it. )

"What? Wren..." Star says, somewhat disoriented. "Where am I? What's going on? How long?"

"It still hurts and I feel sort of sick." She struggles to rise into the air and looks around. "What's this coccoon thing? Where is everyone else?"

"Obviously not long enough, as you are in pretty bad shape. I'll have you ready soon, but I think you should get some of those orbs ready to defend us. There's a force, Barrington, outside, attacking this base. The mystery super here agreed to work with us for now, so we need all of us, including you. Everyone else it outside, doing what they can."

"They tried to help heal you, but it would take too long, and with the threat outside, I wouldn't leave anyone behind. I told you I would watch out for all of us, and I keep my word. So, get ready for some fireworks, because when we're done here, there's no resting."

Wren can see that this would take a while, so he works as fast as he can. HEAL 10, next injury removed. If possible, he would try to walk with her, as he heals her, to get them ready as soon as possible. Otherwise, it's heal and heal until she's ready to go...

"What about Apollo? Is he okay?" Star asks. "What are the attackers like?"

" If I set up some orbs up, what should they do? I don't know what the invaders look like, so I can't make them go after those specifically, and I haven't seen all the defenders either, so I can't set up an ignore function." I guess they tried to heal me right away, so they were trying to make for shooting me. It's still humiliating to need to rescued though. Again. Maybe I should try extra hard to make up for failing - or at least to lose more spectacularly.

Star fumbles at her pouches, checking to see what items she still has in possession. (I'd assume that all her comm gear, at least, had been taken, but they could have put it back. She spends her turn checking her gear.)

 

[Fangor the Fierce]

"Wren here. Star's ok. Optic, any way to transfer a detailed image of outside onto our gear? While I work here, it would be best if Star could study the layout outside."

Looking at Star, he smiles, knowing that her first thought was of her allies, and not of herself. She's doing better he thinks to himself.

"Everyone's fine, for now. You saw the base layout. Seems as though Barrington's sent in some ship, which is transporting units in mech armor to attack. There's a few super's out there as well. 5 of them, that are attacking apparently. The base's ground defenses have been deployed, and they are also in battle suits. It's one hell of a fireworks display going on. I would set your orbs to go for the teleportation device area. There seems to be a slight window of the force field protecting it going down, and if you could get those orbs in there while that happens, then we could stem the flow of the enemies."

So the actions declared:
Nitro: Shockwave a lot of baddies
Viridian: Emotion Control
Hope: Lightning Bolt
Star: Checking her equipment
Wren: Healing Star.
Jemal: ??? (There are a lot of mechs, so controlling just one might not help that much, though he can still do that.)
Apollo: ???

 

[Raylis]

"Vi if you can find Control Freak I'll take care of him.
