As Emral draws in magical energy, the skeleton directly ahead of him shouts, "Matchstick head is gettin' ready to cast, boys! Take 'im down!"
"Kiiiiii-yah!" shouts a skeleton, throwing a kick at Emral's head.
[Rolls 14 v. AC, Miss]
"Waaaa-cha!" yells another, punching Emral in the side of the neck as the sorcerer dodges the first. [Rolls 21 v. AC; Emral takes
3 damage.]
"Ow! Hey! Watch the threads, baby!" shouts THE COAT!
As Emral reels from the blow, a third skeleton lunges forward to bite the genasi's arm
(rolls 9 v. AC, miss), but the skeleton is too late. Fire blasts out, incinerating him and his comrade.
"Whoa! Right in the kisser, Hobbes!"
However, the one who kicked at Emral survives.
"I bet that Legionairre is thanking his lucky stars that he survived that one."
"You know, Emral," says Dave, Spirit of War,
"Casting spells in melee is always a tactically inferior decision. In the future, I'd suggest a short withdrawal, followed by the incantation."
The white, green, and yellow flagged skeletons run at the party, stop short, and rip themselves apart. Their bones scatter to become new skeletons.

[sblock=Uncle Mikey's Special Potions]
UNCLE MIKEY’S SUPER HEALING POTION
Base Item: Potion
Power (Consumable): Minor Action. Drink this potion and spend a healing surge. You regain all lost Hit Points. However, because Uncle Mikey made this potion with super-hot peppers, you experience unbelievable searing pain in your mouth and bowels. Your tongue swells, and you cannot speak (or consume any other potions). Your nose runs, your eyes tear, and you become dizzy from the pain: -2 to all attack rolls and defenses. A successful save ends the harmful side effects.
Level: n/a
Value: n/a
UNCLE MIKEY’S GO JUICE
Base Item: Potion
Power (Consumable): Minor Action. When you drink Uncle Mikey’s Go Juice, you gain a +1 bonus to Speed, Armor Class, and Reflexes, as well as the ability to perform an extra basic attack once per round, as a free action, on your turn. This Go Juice effect lasts until the end of your next turn.
Once the first effect of the Go Juice wears off, you begin to get the jitters. When you post, you cannot place spaces, capitalization, or punctuation in your character’s speech. You still gain a +1 bonus to Speed and may perform an extra basic attack, once per round, as a free action, on your turn. However, you suffer a -1 penalty to all attack rolls and defenses. A successful save ends this effect.
After the second effect of the Go Juice wears off, you become blind until the end of your next turn.
Level: n/a
Value: n/a[/sblock]
[sblock=Approvalometer Tokens][sblock=Generic Tokens x3]A party member can spend a generic token to do one of the following...
- Get Up! -- spend a Healing Surge as a free action (even if unconscious).
- Get Going! -- gain an extra action, as if having spent an action point.
- Do It Again! -- regain the use of an encounter or daily power that you have already expended.
- Try Harder! -- re-roll a failed attack roll with a +1 bonus.
Spending a Token of Favor is a free action. It can only be done on your turn. Once used, tokens are gone forever. They will not be restored each 'round' of the battle.[/sblock]
[sblock=Special Psychic Tokens]Because of the party's interaction with the general public, you have caused the approvalometer to generate several special tokens. These tokens are as follows...
DUUUUUUUUUDE!
Uncle Mikey loves the party!
Available to: Any one party member.
Effect: You may activate this token as a free action when you imbibe a potion. You do not have to spend a healing surge to gain the potion’s effects.
EVERYBODY LOVES VAUNEA
Nothing protects a warrior like the pure-hearted love of children.
Available to: Vaunea.
Effect: You may activate this token as an immediate interrupt when you are supposed to suffer damage from an attack. The token negates all effects of the attack.
GOOD RIDDANCE!
Your fans feel nothing but relief that Hadarai has left the party—and that provides you with relief as well.
Available: Entire party.
Effect: A party member may activate this token as a free action on his or her turn. All members of the party immediately recover 4 HP and may perform a save against one effect.
GIVE HIM A FOOT IN THE MOUTH AND HE’LL TAKE A MILE
Finnian’s gaffes have moved the public, so now they want to move him.
Available: Finnian.
Effect: As a free action, you may shift 6 squares.
MARCO’S HOPES AND DREAMS
Marco’s desire for the party’s victory grants new life to the fallen.
Available: Any one party member.
Effect: As a free action, when a party member becomes unconscious or dies, you may activate this token. The fallen party member immediately recovers, gaining full hit points.
ONE-ARMED HALFLING SUPER-FU
Cousin Eustace’s hard-bitten, dirty-fightin’ warrior spirit inspires you.
Available: Any one party member.
Effect: You may use this token as a free action when one of your attacks hits an opponent. That opponent is stunned until the end of its next turn.
ONE HOT HUNK OF MANHOOD
The red-hot lust of women everywhere fuels Drivan’s flames.
Available to: Drivan.
Effect: When you cast Scorching Burst, you may activate this token. The area of spell becomes burst 5, and it inflicts 2d6, rather than 1d6 damage. You gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls with the burst.
RATS!
Swillwort’s gratitude over his release from his horrible state sets the party free from their afflictions.
Available to: Entire party.
Effect: All party members automatically succeed in saves against any current, ongoing effects.
Once you expend a psychic token, it is gone forever. Only the person to whom the token is available may activate it.[/sblock][/sblock]
[sblock=Dave, Spirit of War]Once per round, a party member may spend a Dave Token. A Dave Token has one of the following effects, chosen when it is used:
- A party member may shift one space.
- A party member may regain 1d6 HP without spending a healing surge.
- A party member may perform a basic melee attack as a free action.
- Designate an enemy as a target. All party members gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls against that target until the start of activator's next turn.
