SX:3 From the Bowels of Philadelphia (Hero For Hire Judging)

[Salix]

OOC: what will Ghost and Aphib do?

 

[JRYoung]

"Arghhhhhh" Aphib struggles wildy to break out of the giant robot's grip.

Aphib's grapple check to break out of pin (1d20+20=37)

OOC: I need to find some kind of extra effort or something to get out of this pin. I'll do some research within the next few days.

 

[Fenris2]

Ghst looks at the gignormous robot doubtfully and shrugs to himself and gives it a try.. Coordinate and try to lift that 'bot, his TK which is normally 30 str will be pusghed or combined as he is able with gryphon's efforts....

 

[Salix]

Ghost and Twilight Gryphon struggle immensely, straining to their utmost limits. Beads of sweat form on the winged wonder's brow, but in the end the giant automaton is too immense for even their combined strength. As his teammate slumps in the iron fist of the machine, something catches Ghost's eye. Aquaphibian strains, but is also unable to break the hold of enormous robot. Just then, over the communicator, the heroes hear Wheeler's voice, " Team listen up! One of Null's former students has come forward, and we have every reason to believe that he is using the dam to power a device capable of destroying both Baltimore and Philadelphia from it's location at the Conowingo Dam. A flyover and scan by the Vigilant detected what looks like an access panel below the waterline on the robot's treads. Hang in there, we are trying to scramble another team, but all of the Resolutes are either occupied or out of communication."


[Sblock=Ghost] You see a suspicious panel under the waterline. After the commo from Wheeler, you are sure it is the one he's talking about[/sblock]

 

[Fenris2]

Ghost says to himself, *Ahh serendipidy.* and then to the rest, "Hang in there. I think I see it"

Ghost moves to see what he can do with the access panel, probably have to tk it open as the the big tin man seems impervious to insubstantial...

 

[Salix]

Ghost floats through the air and enters the water soundlessly. The access shaft is simple to open, and he finds himself floating before an open door in no time.


ooc: Rolls for the two in the Iron Juggernaut's grip?

 

[Raylis]

Grapple (1d20+12=16) , spending an HP to recover from fatigue

 

[JRYoung]

OOC: OK, here is my idea for Aphib: Struggling wildly to escape Aphib's scales increase their normal secretion of lubricating fluid. This slick lubricant, normally instrumental in his uncanny swimming ability, becomes so thick and slippery that he squirts out of the giant robots grip and falls to the water.

OOC: The game mechanic is Extra Effort for a Power Stunt: An Alternate Power off of his Swimming Power that is one rank of Insubstantial, which automatically allows him to make any Escape Artist check. How about it Salix, will this work?

OOC: If approved, Aphib falls to the water (damage?) and becomes Fatigued at the beginning of the next round (he will use a hero point to negate this Fatigue).

 

[Salix]

Aquaphibian struggles wildly, and somthing strange begins to happen. His scales increase their normal secretion of lubricating fluid. This slick lubricant, normally instrumental in his uncanny swimming ability, becomes so thick and slippery that he squirts out of the giant robots grip and falls to the water.
Meanwhile.. the grip tightens on Twilight Gryphon like an anaconda, cutting of her air.

OOC: Creative solution. BTW Raylis- your idea might have worked except for a specific ability that the big robot possesses. TG takes a bruise from the attack applied after the grapple. Next round please.

 

[JRYoung]

Aphib hits the water and gets his bearings, it feels good to be back in his element. Looking around he sees (and feels w/ tremorsense) Ghost accessing a hatch on the Robot's leg. He swims over to the hatch as fast as possible and attempts to enter right behind Ghost.

"I've got your back Ghost, let's disable this thing quickly. TG is in trouble."
