Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread

Viridian puts her hand to her mouth in horror.

"I didn't know you'd be...I didn't think it would..." she stammers...then quickly moves forward and looks for some way to help. If no one's taken out the cameras, she starts by disabling any she can see with TK.

The Aegis agent didn't like the young woman all that much, but no innocent deserved to be burned like that. And Hope knew that Shooting Star was probably one of the more innocent people she had ever met.

"Leave the rash and stupid acts to me, okay?" Hope says trying to block out the sight and smell of Star's burnt hands and arms.

Someone say something so I don't have to do this! Megan glances around to the rest of the group with desperation and then anger. She floats over toward where Nitro applied his talents in smashing, tilts herself so that she's basically lying down and then dangles her arms a few feet above the crater stomped(?) into the floor. Megan pauses, and turns back to Viridian. "Are you sure you're ready? Optic, since you're not getting anywhere, can you blind her - it, whatever - by turning off the sensors for a bit?" It's bad enough that you'll all see. "Oh, and stand back."

After a moment's pause for people to move, she winces preemptively before unleashing her full power straight down into the hole. There's some screaming involved too.

----------------------------------------------

Round 1: Move action to float over the hole Nitro made.

Round 2: Full Round Action to break object:

Extra Effort! Barely Controlled Plasma Projection: Corrosion +13 Area (Cone 130 ft)
Side Effect: Blast +13

Assuming the base can't make a Reflex save (but you never know), it loses 13 points of toughness and must take 5 on its Toughness save versus DC 28. IIRC, that can inflict a Destroy result on a 130 feet of solid steel (all that's in the area) even with the bonuses from thickness.

Shooting Star saves against a DC 28 Blast with her +9 toughness. I'll spend an HP on improved roll to avoid Staggered, KO, Disabled, or Dying if necessary.

If there's a superscience energy reflector or something hidden inside the reinforced concrete, then spending a hero point to ensure that she evades her own blast would also be a good idea.

Nitro blasts a hole with his shockwave, while Viridian and Optic blast cameras. They suspect that Scylla has longer-range sensing equiptment as well, however, but probably not as detailed as the cameras. Shooting Star goes through a whole lot of pain and smoking, but is not seriously hurt (Injured, no hp needed). Surprisingly, however, it does not entirely destroy the base's heavy armor, although it does seriously weaken it.

"Wow. You OK?" Seeing that Star is more or less fine, Nitro, not one to be melodramatic, starts using repeated shockwaves on remaining armor leading to the base.

Nitro jumps in the air and lands with his both hands bashing the floor clenched together. The floor crumbles, and Nitro falls in. He falls through the armored bunker and into the base, going through an additional floor and landing on a pile of rubble at the beginning a hallway. Being Nitro, he's ok. It seems that the previous floor merely led to stairs to this hallway.

double posties suck.

"You okay to go on?" she asked the woman, uncertainty and that instinctive concern coloring her tone of voice.

If she says yes, Hope turns to the other three superheroes. "I can fly us all down there, though you'll have to 'cover' me if things turn dicey on the way down." she says grimly. "I can be alot stronger than I look when the situation calls for it."

 

[Victim]

Megan convulses momentarily after cutting out with her blast of supercharged plasma, then recovers and zooms over to the ice. AAAAAHHHH! OW!OW!OW! She'll use it to cool down her burned hands and tries to catch her breath.

Shooting Star waves off Hope's assistance. "Nonono, don't heal my hands." You'll fix too much and ruin everything! She answers Hope's inquiry, "Been worse. It hurts a lot, but my vector didn't even slip." That time was pretty gentle, comparatively. Numbing my hands on the ice must have helped.

Megan watches enviously as Nitro smashes into the lower levels. It took everything I have, and then he breaks it just like that?! You always win, nothing seems to hurt you or bother you. Rich, handsome, famous. Just get your powers a few months ago and then make everything look so f-ing easy. Screw you, Nitro. "I can't really carry anyone. Sorry. See you at the botto." She darts after the wrestler, a touch sluggish from pusing her power, but still amazingly fast. D- AI. I'll make you pay for forcing me to do that

(Def: 22/14. Toughness +9. Injured. Fatigued (-1 att, -2 STR, DEX, 1/2 spd). HP 3)

Hope nods, her expression clearly telling Star she's not convinced, "Alright. It gets too bad, you tell me, okay?" She's got guts, I'll grant her that,




"Okay. That nixes that plan," Hope says softly as the volatile superhero flies down. "Alright. You have a choice, I can either use my winds to take you down there or we can fly down."

 

[Elric]

"I'm fine" Nitro looks around for any cameras or gun emplacements to destroy (with a Shockwave if it seems like it might be dangerous to get up close).
