Superheroes of the Trust OOC Thread II

[Victim]

The animal stuff clearly is just big, cartoony costumes. He looks like Mickey Mouse with a really big gun and several more guns and grenades on his person. The big pink bunny has a giant hammer and seems to be particularly good at jumping. The bee is dressed in black and yellow stripes, has wings, feelers that seem to be sensors of some kind, pincers that seem to be technological though its unclear what they do, and wrist guns that shoot poison stingers.

Ah, the humiliation. And hmm, Murder Mouse was involved in the human combustion attacks mentioned in the first post, wasn't he?

Yeah. I decided from the beginning you'd meet basically everyone mentioned in that post. Other than Jack the Raper. That was padding. The group is a reference, btw. After this fight I'll list the number of references for each of the newly-introduced characters and situations for people to guess.

I was just thinking that "human combustion attack" is a little strange and specific. I don't really think of think of it as refering to shooting a fireblast at people. It sounded more like he has some device or power that causes other things (like people) to ignite.

That is what happened in that case, which implies more powers than just his weapons.

Well, the big gun could be some funky gadget; maybe some kind of microwave beam that cooks the target from the inside...

So in game terms how hard would the communications array (is that our name for the teleportation system on the enemy ship?) be to hit in melee as far as Nitro could tell at the moment? Are we talking Defense 5 + size bonus/penalty here or does it seem capable of moving around (or have some kind of shielding) so it's harder to hit?

Also, is it actually an antennae? Victim's recent post had Star suggesting as much, and it would make sense, but I don't remember it being described in specifics.

I started using your term, but yes, it seems that the teleportation receiver is located at the top of the tower along with other communication and sensor arrays. It has a separate force field than the rest of the ship, since it can be lowered there separately.

It is very easy to hit in melee though.

 

[Victim]

Yes, Star is actually taking an action instead of just talking.

It seems that posting in general has slowed greatly. Is there a problem I should be aware of? (Other than two players disappearing from the boards in general, of course.)

Not that I'm aware of, I just try to post once until all the others have posted, or at least I try to post only one 'actiony' post until then.
