Each round, you get to make a new Fortitude save adding +1 for each round after this round. It is a full-round action to recover so if you make your Fort save this round (Round 2, you can not react until next round. SOO Raven needs to make a Fort save (at +2 +1) to try and recover from the nauseaPsimon laughs and coming towards Raven…This round (2)…Suddenly the back door that Raven came through smashes open and Cyborg yells “Raven are you in here? The whole mall is going crazy and there are killers everywhere… we need ya… what the #!%% who the #@&$ are you Freak? Hey get away from her…”Cyborg using his Power to DataLink (at Range) focusing in on Raven’s communicator Amix card to locate her last round when the shooting started and half moved to get here. This round, full move action to move and smash open the door (that somehow seems to have locked?) coming into the back room and seeing Raven on the ground, two cut up girls and Psimon standing over them all laughing Raven tries to stop throwing up Fort save +2 +1, DC unknownPsimon smiles down at Raven and says “Is this your little boyfriend pet? He seems nice… would you like to watch me kill him?” he then looks up at Cyborg and says “Psimon says DIE!” Mind Control ‘command’ to hold this and stand still (so Psimon can do bad things) Mental Attack roll total 26 to hit, above the 15 +Cyborg’s will required. Cyborg’s Will save 19, not enough…causing Cyborg to freeze this round motionless. He says “What the h#!!? Let go you freak!” FOOD COURTBatgirl shakes her head and kips up instantly onto her feet. Looking up, Batgirl runs jumps onto a pile of rumble and flips up onto the second floor landing (not far from where Cat’s Eye and Wondergirl are but one floor down) and landing in a mass of terrorist punches, kicks, whirs through them like wheat…HP to become unstunned. Instant stand, normal move (run, leaping stuff) Leap 11 +6 +1 =18, plus Super-Leap. Rapid Takedown attack allows you to hit as many mooks as your BAB so +8 hits all eight in that area, and Attack roll hits! Damage save of the 8 mooks is DC23L (-3 for armor) is 5, 5, 4, 20, 10, 8, 16, 15. One survived!!!…sending seven terrorist flying back in broken pieces with necks snapped, rips collapsed, windpipes torn and other assorted horrible wounds. One of the thugs took most of the blow on his flak armor and he curses her for her ‘righteous ways’Superboy noting the many terrorist, but also seeing that if he leaves it is the prone Nightwing, Robin, and Arsenal to take on Mammoth below (just planning a bit <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />) flies down and slams one of his fists into the huge brute’s face…Charging +2 to hit, -2 to DEF, Power Attack -4 to hit, +4 to damage. Attack roll total for Superboy is 8 +8+1 (Nightwing) +2 -4 =15, a hit. Damage save for Mammoth, vs. DC37 (-11 for his protection) is 22, missing it by 4. Mammoth takes a Stun hita KRACK! echoes throughout the mall, and causes Mammoth’s head to snap to the side and take a step back. As Superboy flashes past, Mammoth shakes his head and looking with blood shot eyes says “Wasa that suppose to hurt punk?”Terra raises her hand and rocks spit up out of the food court floor and fly into the air. She then slams a large one down into a mass of terrorist on the 3rd floor (including two bazooka wielders who did not get to fire last round)…Area Effect attack, targeting one with a bazooka. Attack roll 8+ +1= hitting him! Damage save vs. DC24 (-3 for armor) is 10. Reflex save for the other four thugs vs. DC19 are 22! 20! 17, and 10. Two make it, so their damage save is vs. DC19 (-3 armor) rolling 10 and 21, one makes it! The other two vs. DC23 (-3 pts of armor) 17, 6, both fail…while one of the thugs is able to leap out of the way of the boulder crashing down on them, four others are not do lucky and are buried in the rubble!  Then a red-haired punk-goth girl drops down out of the hole where the skylight was and says “Nightwing I presume… yer cute… for a dead man! Can you breath if your lungs are full of blood? Lets find out!” as she waves her right hand at him…Flight normal move 45feet down through the skylight (and movement from last round). Hovering about 80 feet above the floor now. Attack roll total 13! Spend a Villain point total 29! A hit. Nightwing needs to make a Fortitude save vs. Suffocation total 9!? Spending a Hero Point (I give the NPC’s 1 or 2 Hero Points each soo) getting a 14 fail!…and suddenly Nightwing spits up a red liquid from his mouth and starts gagging! Mammoth yells out “Yea, do it! Kill boy wonder-bread Shimmer! Kill him dead!”Impulse appears on the 2nd floor balcony overlooking the food court between where Terra and Beast Boy are on one side and where Hawk, Dove and Aqualad are fighting. He says “SONIC BOOM” and races along one whole wing of the balcony slamming into all the Thugs along there… Rapid Takedown Attack allows Impulse to attack a number of mooks equal to his BAB so +5. Heroic Surge to attack two Groups of 5. If he knocks any out, will use Takedown attack to hit more. All along where his normal movement (75ft). Power Attack -5 to hit, +5 to damage Attack roll 18 +9 -5 = 23 a hit! Damage save for five mooks vs. DC29 (-3 for their Armor) is 21, 3, 11, 19 and 5. All failing. Next mook attack roll 6 +9 -5 =10 a miss! No more attacks from that group. Heroic surge attack 9 +9 -5 =13 a hit! Damage save for these five mooks vs DC29 (-3 for their Armor). 20, 4, 5, 18, 13, all fail! Takedown attack natural 20! Crit, save for mook (vs. DC34, -3 for Armor) 16. Takedown attack 5 +9 -5 =9 a miss. And that’s it for that attack…and 11 terrorists go flying every which way, knocked off their feet and through the air by the speedster.Nightwing gagging this round and unconscious… next round could start dying if he does not make his next Fort save (he can not issue any more orders this round, so no bonus from Leadership for anyone)Arsenal taunts the little flying man…13+7 =20, vs. his Sense Motive or Taunt skill total of 18 He is flatfooted against Arsenal…and quickdrawing and arrow his fires it straight at his gun while he stares at Arsenal with a stupid (yet mad) look on his face! Note Gizmo is 160ft way, so with your Bow RI 60ft (Power Rank) -4 to Attack, plus Nightwing did not give order so you total is down to +4. Attack roll 15 +4 =19 a hit (cause he is flat-footed). Disarm is opposing Weapon Checks, Arsenal 14+4=18, vs. Gizmo 14 (I am going to say that because he is flat-footed, he loses his DEX bonus to attack soo)Arsenal's arrow shots true and knocks the multibarrel gun onto the ground "Hey! You'll pay for that you bastard" A beautiful bald African American woman suddenly appears 40 feet from Robin. She smiles at his evilly as she raises her jeweled and ring covered hands “You boys sure know how to play… now lets play my game… its called ‘How many does Jinx get to kill today?’ you be my first lover Qual’ korth oh’san BAUT’!” Extra Effort to gain Area Effect on her Attack, Spending a Villain point to ignore fatigue. Attack roll against Robin total 17, miss but still in Area Effect, so you get Reflex save for half 17+11 =28, makes it; and then Damage save vs. half (plus -5 for Armor) is 16+1=17, succeeding easily. Arsenal is also in the area and needs Reflex saves, 8+6 =14, fails. Damage save is 14+1=15, fails by 10. Arsenal takes a Lethal hit, and is Stun (you can spend a HP on your round to become unstunned if you want to, otherwise lose next action)Thunder cracks through the Mall as huge bolts of lightning slam into the ground around the heroes, blowing the few remaining live patrons apart and shaking the whole mall with its power! Robin somehow dodges through the area avoiding the blast, however Arsenal is not so luck and is thrown back out of the area and disappears under debris.Morphing into a huge green rhino, Beast Boy bellows and charges the thugs on opposite direction that Terra is raining down rocks onto…NOTE that if you want to take out mooks, Takedown Attack and Rapid Takedown attack are great! But anyway, Shapeshift, free action, Move action 30ft to nearest thug. Attack roll for Beast Boy, 6 +9-3 =12 a hit! Damage save for mook vs. DC27 (-3 for armor) is 5. Intimidation check 13+7 =20, drawing lots of looks at him…the first thug he gores with his horn, throwing the man 50 feet into the air where he slams into the ceiling as a bloody pulp! Many of the others stare down at the big green rhino with looks of horror…but also looks of fanatical devotion to their cause (which seems to be killing). The balcony groans and cracks with the weight of a big green rhino running around on top of it…  Gizmo curses his luck and swoops down and recover his multibarreled rifle. “Hey where did boy-boy go?” he then that’s flight flying up 50 feet to get a better look for his target…Robin flips to his feet and charges Jinx, the words of his first 'trainer' ringing in his ears when you fighting metahumans, get in close and don't them react the way they want to… ranged freaks are use to trading shots from distance while bricks tend to think they can just stand in one place and trade blow… mix it up on them and you have an advantage as he gets close his bo-staff snaps out to its full length and he bring it down towards the woman's head…Instant stand, change 40ft to get to the woman, +2 to Attack -2 to DEF. Power attack -4 to hit +4 damage. Attack roll 16+12+2-4 =26 a hit. Damage save for Jinx vs. DC25 (-9 for her FF/protection) total is 15, fails by 1. Takes a Stun hit…catching her on the shoulder. She seems shocked by this "You… you… touched me… beast! I will tear you apart!" Starfire floating in the air gets a little higher and “HAUPH” in rage again hurls two large glow green balls of energy into the area at the thugs flying around her!With Area attack, you have to choose a target. If you hit that target does not get a Reflex save for half. If you miss then he gets a Reflex save for half. Everyone else in the area gets a Reflex save for half. Both of Starfire’s bolts hit two flying-mooks, so no Reflex save for them. Damage save vs. DC29 (-3 for armor) is 11 and 3, both fail. Reflex save for the first group (6 additional ones are in the area) vs. DC24 (yikes!) are 5, 14, 16, 20, 8, 7. All fail. Damage save 14, 11, 11, 21 13, 11. All fail. Second ground (catching 4 additional thugs) reflex saves are 21, 8, 7, 20, 12, 13, all fail. Damage saves 13, 16, 11, 17, 12, all fail…her blasts exploded within two large groups of them, sending 12 flying every which way little rag dolls! With 3/4’s of their numbers decimated the others looks at her and say “Get her! For the Dark Lord! Kill!”   A group of ten flying advanced looking power suits then drop out from the Skylight! They are black and green with gold-tinned faceplates. Two fly down the 3rd floor balcony (where one almost instantly appears flying back out from, slamming into a pillar and dropping like a rock to slam into the food court floor below; see Wondergirl below <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />).

Not worst spending a Hero Point to re-roll as the odds are against ya (and you can spend a HP on your action to become unstunned for sure BUT if you want to I will re-roll and edit if I have to), so he takes a Stun hit and is Stunned and suffers knockback… note he is not knocked out, just stunned…that connect with Superboy’s chin with another KRACK! that is heard hundreds of yards away and sends Superboy sailing fifty feet to slam into the second floor balcony and imbedding him into the floor!
