Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread

[Fangor the Fierce]

4HP - Defense +9, Toughness +13

Taking a note on the motorcycles make and model, as well as if he can see the license plate, (Editic Memory), Wren hears the call for aid. "On my way. Woman inside is running away out the back parking lot."

As Wren exits the building, flying out of the warehouse, he surveys the scene. When he sees the car, its obvious damage and flames, he rushes to the aid of whomever is trapped inside. He instantly proceeds to open the door, (SuperStrength for Total STR of 19, using HP to make sure that he can open the door if needed) and then proceeds to remove the passengers from the car, and out of harms way. He will use his Interpose as much as needed, and rely on his Deflect, which he will set this round to be triggered on any attacks on the innocents.

Actions: Fly to car, open door and remove the passengers if they need help being evacuated or simply create objects to provide them an escape route to safety. HP will be used to either 1) open car door if strength is not enough, 2)extra action to set his Deflect power to be triggered on any and all attacks to the innocents, 3)use extra action to create objects, PL8 for a 'hallway' corridor that will lead them out of harms way and to safety.

EDIT - He has interpose, so he can guide them to safety, and block any attacks on them as well, if allowable. He simply wants to evacuate the people, as they don't have super powers to prevent them from getting killed. Deflect Rank 9, +9 to Block modifier, includes all ranged and mental attacks, up to 90' of ranged Deflect allowed, Force Field 7, Impervious +7)

 

[Victim]

Amending her plan slightly, Megan "runs" down the WIBA after flying through the warehouse.

(Same plan, even if she isn't stunned. What's another 100 ft or so of move when she has thousands unused right now? Plenty for jinking around, I guess.)

Sky: "It usually doesn't work like that," she replies to Hope. Idiot. They're creating fire; they're not made of it. Intense heat + water -> steam -> scalding. Which won't bother them at all and really hurts me. Besides, I already tried it on White Knight and it didn't work.

 

[Elric]

Nitro step in front and takes the kick meant for Hope. Not so bad.

Ouch! What’s with all of the ‘shoot Nitro with fire’ stuff recently? Has word of my Flaming Dragon Punch not gotten around?

Nitro turns to the other big man.

“If that’s the best you’ve got, there’s no hope against me
To borrow a phrase from Muhammad Ali,
I float like a butterfly and sting like a bee
Your hands can’t hit what your eyes can’t see.”

With that, Nitro does a front flip over the muscular man, then nimbly springs back over the guy’s head as he turns around, hopefully catching him with a rock hard right straight to the face as he tries to turn for the second time.

(Nitro regenerates the Bruise from physical damage. Acrobatic Bluff to feint as a move action at +12- total comes to 15, http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1476419/, opposed by best of Sense Motive/Acrobatics, then attack- if he’s fooled by Acrobatic Bluff, Power Attack for 4. If he’s not fooled by Acrobatic Bluff, no Power Attack. Assuming he’s not fooled, total=14: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1476421/).

Nitro looks over at the woman in red. “Not bad. I bet you play a mean game of Twister. Name’s Johnny Nitro. You’ve probably seen me on TV. Say, are you doing anything tonight, say around 9 pm?”

"Opposing forces.... Magic is not science. Fire is opposed to water and ice, wind to earth. Elements...." Hope's nearly inaudible pain-filled voice faltered as the wold seemed to cave in around her.

Concussion. Maybe broken bones..... she thought, eerily calm. It hurt.... It hurt to much to be afraid. Death didn't scare her anymore. It never did really. It was too often a release for those she stood for, not something to be feared. Living hurt more than death. She clung to consciousness, that sheer stubborness that she was so well known for kicking in, an instinctive knee-jerk reaction.

"We got fine.... Everyone..... Out.... Can't..." she struggled to focus past the pain, to channel the pain and the energy it created into supernatural-strength. An old trick... A nasty trick.

. o O {What are they doing, we're not here to fight the labyrinth we're here for Fine! Does everyone have demons? This is turning out to be a bad movie}

"We're here to rescue you, Fine, unless you want to keeping working for the Labyrinth." Nightweaver says rather crossly to the doctor, keeping a firm grip on him.

 

[DM_Matt]

Just need Viridian.

 

[Shayuri]

Viridian turns to face the woman in red and the other burly man. She inhales and murmurs under her breath. A dozen whispering voices seem to pick up the siblant sounds of her voice...half-heard, never quite understandable.

She then locks eyes with the two villains, and although nothing physically changes, suddenly Viridian seems to loom large over them both...the rest of the world curving away behind her while she expands to dominate the whole of their vision. Her anger storms out in waves, pushing dust and paper outwards away from her and igniting primitive, atavistic fear .

Though to most her voice is angry, but otherwise normal...to those in the grip of her spell, her words seem to boom like thunder.

"You are dealing with forces you cannot predict...cannot control...cannot comprehend. Do not tempt my wrath! The wicked will be punished! The wrong, righted! Stand now and be judged!"

(Emotion Control, DC 21, burst area effect including the aforementioned baddies, but positioned not to affect any allies. Inspiring fear towards Thessaly.)

The woman in red and the standing minihulk are clearly affected, and prepare to run away.

Star flies towards the WIBA, and sends numerous plasma blasts at her, lightly wounding her but not stopping her (1 bruise)

Wren pries open the door and pulls out a woman and her young son, just as another car turns a corner and hits this one, knocking it into the next lane, and causing a chain reaction on both sides as the cars keep coming. Wren manages to mostly get them aside, even as a car actually hits him and is deflected (Impervious for the win).

Asad presses some buttons on the laptop that Fine was using, and then runs towards the parking lot.

Nightweaver tries to reason with fine, who she can now tell has almost certainly been mind-controlled. She manages to pin him though, and keep his ring from touching her.

The woman in business attire jumps on the motorcycle and speeds away.

Nitro taunts the already-frightened baddies, and jumps behind the minihulk, slugging him as he turns around. However, it does not seem to bother him overly much (1 bruise...close, missed by 4).

The woman in read, deathly scared of Viridian and confused at Nitro's boastful flirting, can;t think of a snappy comeback and jumps into a damaged car, pulling a gun and urging the driver to turn around and go.

The minihulk that just got hit makes a huge leap, over the building and a couple blocks on.

Hope is a bit relived that no one is about to finish her off, and summons up a hail storm (she did not specify a target, but she can hit the fire demon hovering above the warehouse with it without hitting any team mates or innocents. He gets caught in the storm of sudden hail, and, slowed by Viridian's chains, can't avoid it, and crashes onto the roof, where he continues to be pounded by hail. The demon's hold on the body is lost, and it morphs back into the guard, who seems to be dead.

The other two demons seem to have no fear, however, and continue to attack. One dematerializes and reappears behind Shooting Star, high in the air, and grabs her, pressing his flaming body against her. Miraculously, her tough body is not harmed, but he does pin her.

The other demon tries another pass at breathing fire on Hope, Nitro, and Viridian. NItro manages to avoid it entirely, but Hope and Viridian get pretty badly burned (1 bruise, 1 injury, both stunned)

And the order goes back to Viridian...

 

[Elric]

Nitro, 1 Injury, 1 Bruise (energy dmg), 1 HP

(To the mini-hulk)

"That's right, run away! I guess you're not as dumb as you look. At least you know not to take on 'White Ali'."

Nitro turns to the woman in red.

"Geez, I've gotten some bad rejections before, but this one takes the cake. Was it something I said? If you're really upset, you can just shoot me. I can take it!"

Nitro runs over and tries to get a hand on the woman in red and tackle her, using any methods necessary. If she has a gun out, grabbing her wherever is fair game, right? But she has a gun out, Nitro- go for the gun, don't try to cop a feel!

(OOC: Move over to woman in red. Accurate Attack and All-Out Attack for 5 each, following that up with Improved Grab on a hit. Attack roll at +18, for a total of 27. http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1477988/ 9 damage on a hit. Grapple check +25 to start the grapple).

IC:
Hope manages to blast the demon with hail and her mouth opens in a silent scream of pain as the second demon breathes fire on her, the searing shock of it stunning her, sending her into the world of unconsciousness.
