Fraternity of DOOM!!!

Game Master Xabulba

Whoops!

Realizing that she will be ineffective in a slugfest, Liberteen looks around the docks for a bucket or good-sized container (like a drum). If she finds one, she will fill it with water and drench LL with it.

Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Liberteen there are plenty of barrels laying about, many are full but a few have been emptied during the fight. Coincidence chance: 1d20 ⇒ 19There also happens to be a couple of pallets of bottled water nearby.

Cat and Libertenn are up.

Liberteen grabs one of the pallets of bottled water and slings it at LL.

Would I just need to spend a hero point to do the overloading or would that be a technology roll?

Liberteen slings a palette of water at Living Lightning whom deftly dodges the water hazard.

@Cat - Just a tech roll overload the gun, unless you want to do it without the roll then it would be a hero point.

Technology: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25

Seeing Alloy begin to engulf Cold Snap Jo grits her teeth in frustration before letting her eyes fall to the gun in her hands Maybe... Jo thinks to herself before bursting into action fiddleing with the gun in an effort to push it to it's limits in order to create a blast strong enough to deal with Alloy "Here goes nothing" Jo says with a sigh before taking a shot at Alloy.

Ranged Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Hero point to reroll
Ranged Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 6 becomes 16 so 16+5 = 21

Cat quickly bypasses the safety inhibitors on the Hsmart gun and fires all of it's potential energy at Alloy. A green wave of concussive force impacts Alloy sending him tumbling backwards, along with Cold Snap, where he ricochets off the ice barge before splashing into the harbor twenty feet away.

-5 to all non-area effect attacks. Enhanced senses other than sight aren't affected.

Ogami is up.

Ogami charges Living Lightning and makes a side slash with his katana

Attack 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18

@Ogami - as mentioned before, Living Lightning doesn't have a body you can hit, it is composed of conscious self aware animated electricity.
You can't use physical attacks to fight it, you need to think of how electricity behaves and use that against it. The attack would have missed anyway but if you want to redo and take another course of action you can.

Seeing his beloved blown into the harbor Vohon's anger literary erupts transforming his hair into rippling flame. Any semblance of human level intelligence disappear as roars and charges Cat. As he charges waves of heat flow off him igniting the combustible materials around him leaving a trail of fire in his wake.
Fiery claws slash at Cat's head, ATK vs Cat: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 2 = 20, hitting her squarely on the temple.
Cat a toughness resistance check please.

Vohon's volcanic rage also helps clear the fading snowstorm faster removing all visibility penalties.

Unless she changes what she is doing ATHENA teleports more downed cops to safety.

QNetic is up.

Redirect my attack to Vohon, please.

Doc Qnetic looks at living lightning with hatred in his heart, wishing her harm, before releasing his form to his Internal Focused Form's self for recovery. Whispers Damn, Doc.

. . Harming: Damage 10 (Alternate; DC 25; Affects Insubstantial 2: full rank, Alternate Resistance: Fortitude, Dimensional 3: any dimension, Increased Range 2: perception, Incurable, Insidious, Penetrating 10, Subtle 2: undetectable) hopefully the affects insubstantial will make up for a lack of body. She won't even know she's hurt because of the insidious, won't see that doc was the cause because of subtle 2, and probably won't get better anytime soon with incurable. Fort DC 25

Ogami side slashes the charging Vohon, RC: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 10 - 2 = 16, his blade cuts past the rippling flame damaging Vohon but fails to stop the bears charge.

QNetic reaches out with malevolent thoughts against Living Lighting, RC: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18, and lays some unseen and noticed harm on the electric villain.

Capt. Cosmos is up.

At the moment, it looks like we have a 3 on 1 dogpile on Vohon, but Liberteen could use some help with the Lightning guy. I think I can help with that. Captain Cosmos changes a setting on his PPG to Temporal/Spacial Helix setting. The captain makes a deft combat roll and pops up drawing a bead on the energy form of Living Lightning. "Hey Sparky, even energy can't avoid a twist in space and time!"

PPG - Temporal/Spacial Helix Blast PL 8: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21
Hero Point Reroll: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 +10 = 28!

Toughness: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Toughness Reroll: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15
using my last hero point to reroll that because I'd prefer not to be COMPLETELY torn to shreds by a bear

Jo smirked as the gun worked exactly as planned blasting the metal man into the harbor, she was given just a few brief moments to pat herself ont he back before being faced with perhaps the single most terrifying sight of her life. A fully grown and incredibly angry bear, on fire, charging directly at her. The beast was on her before she could do more than start scrambling for an escape.

Cat rolls with the Vohon's blow dissipating the majority of it's force and is only staggered instead of headless.

Forgot Living Lightning's turn. Living Lightning spreads itself out forming a electric shield around the ice barge.

LL's RC: 1d20 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 3 - 1 = 11, Capt.Cosmo's warps space time and Living lightning causing the electric being major damage.

Chris 114 is up.

claw, multiattack, reach: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 10 - 2 = 13

Chris leaps at the fiery enemy, seeking to distract it before it killed the girl.

@Qnetic - All of yous saw that blast. :)

Chris 114 - The -2 is only applied to resistance checks not to attacks or any other actions. If you were using multi-attack against more than one opponent then you would have a -1 for each opponent attacked. If you are only attacking one opponent with a multi-attack the power level of your attack increases depending on how successful your attack was.
Your description indicates you are only attacking one opponent, Vohon,so you would not have any penalties on the attack. Your attack roll should be 15 not 13.

Chris 114 leaps to attack Vohon with his own claws but misjudged his leap and hits the dock were Vohon was just a moment before.

Liberteen is up.

@Qnetic - All of yous saw that blast. :)

Most of I were impressed :P

dang i keep getting confused. i was gonna factor a -2 and a -5, but then i remembered i erroneously did that last time. sloooowly learning. M&M wasnt this complicated when last i played! (or more likely i was just playing wrong)

Jo would be highly impressed if she was not currently being mauled by a fire-bear

I'm kind of hoping that you guys drop firebear before ATHENA's turn. But she should be able to transmat you out (into a vita-pod if necessary) before Vohon's next turn.

Liberteen slings another pallet of water at Living Lightning, trying to short-circuit him.

Liberteen vs. Living Lightning: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
Confirm Critical: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

@Liberteen - no need to confirm crits in M&M3, A natural 20 is an automatic hit and if the attack check total is equal to or greater than the target’s defense it is a critical hit. The 24 attack check is more than LL's dodge rating so it is a crit. Because you got a crit you can add one of these three effects to your attack;

Waiting for Liberteen.

Cat is up.

Well, she is hoping that the water bottles will burst and short-circuit LL, so I'll go with option 2 (Added Effect) with the effect being that he is stunned for a short period.

Liberteen's watery missile explode in a shower of sparks and stray strands of electricity when it hits Living Lightning, "IiiI'm MellttInggG, ii'M meLTTinNNg..." Living lightning crackles and pops as it fades away into nothing.

All that's left for now is an enraged Vohon.

Cat is up.

With how badly the bear managed to hit her Jo decides it is best to put herself on the defensive while the others hit Vohon. "Zed if they don't take this thing down what are the chances Athena can get me out of here before I get mauled"

Taking defense action so I don't diiiie

ATHENA is up.

I thought it was Ogami's turn first?

On her turn, ATHENA will transmat Cat into the VITAPOD. Her emotionless voice cuts into the radio channel:
"The chances are quite good. Prepare for Transmat."

transmat lock: 1d20 ⇒ 13

Oops skipped Ogami and Vohon.

Delaying ATHENA's action.

Ogami is up.

Holding Ogami's action.

Vohon's rage explodes around him engulfing everyone in a fireball and setting fire to the surrounding crates.

Everyone needs to make a dodge check DC20 to avoid the full effects of the fireball.
If you fail make a toughness RC vs PL10.
If you succeed make a toughness RC vs PL5.

Ogami is up.

Dodge: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Toughness: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Liberteen squeals as a gout of flame washes over her, singeing her costume and hair.

doooodge: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 7 - 1 = 12 since I'm using the defend action that 6 becomes a 16 so 22 total ssou have to beat the pl5
Toughness: 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 4 - 1 = 16

Dodge1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22 QNetic leaps to cover...
Toughness 1d20 + 10 - 1 ⇒ (11) + 10 - 1 = 20 ... his internal Q Energies toughening him against the flame.

Dodge + Evasion Adv.: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 12 + 2 = 31

Toughness vs PL5: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

A duck and a roll takes Captain Cosmos out of the way of the blast. "FINE! You are not Russian. But Lithuanian bear on fire doesn't make ANY thematic sense at all!!!"

dodge: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21 vs DC 20
toughness (imp 10): 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 16 - 2 = 33 vs PL 5 or 10?

Liberteen passes out from lack of out as the fireball consumes the oxygen around her.
Cat manages to avoid the worst of the flames and is only slightly singed.
QNetic, Chris 114 and Capt. Cosmos only sweet a little more from the fireballs heat but are otherwise unaffected by it.

Holding Ogami's turn.

ATHENA's trans-mat's the wounded Cat to the Zephyr's vita-camber for some much needed healing.

QNetic is up.

QNetic zips up to the bear-man, putting himself between Zohon and the rest of the group. Give it up, Pooh. You're outclassed. QNetics wounds heal as he speaks.

@QNetic - I'm assuming you're holding your action

Capt Cosmos is up.

@QNetic - I'm assuming you're holding your action

Actually, it says I'm dazed, so I assumed I could only do my move or a standard and I chose move. Healing should be automatic, though, so I should get rid of the -1 (and the dazed since that only lasts 1 round anyway, right?)

Cosmos levels his gun at the Burning Bear, and takes careful aim. Thinging to himself, Okay Q, I'll back your play but one hundred Quatloos says Vohon isn't the surrendering type.

As he aims, he says quietly..."Cosmos to Zephyr, If Liberteen doesn't start moving by the time the transmat cycles, pull her up to the ship too... I know she has some healing ability, but it doesn't seem to be working right now."

Standard action to take the aim action at Vohon. If he chooses to fight I get a +5 to my attack roll next time my turn comes around.

Since others have opted to try to get the fire bear to surrender, Subject 114 moves over to the ice barge, and attempts to render it incapable of transporting goods any longer.

Subject 114 turns his attention to the barge, since someone saw fit to get in his way of fighting the fire bear.

He tears at the barge, seeking to prevent its use in transporting stolen goods.

@QNetic - Missed the dazed, got it now.
@Chriss 114 - the -5 for attacks disappeared with the snowstorm.

Capt. Cosmos joins in facing down the bear while Chriss 114 begins dismantling the ice barge by breaking free the containers and putting them back on the dock.

Liberteen begins to heal from her injuries. [ooc]Liberteen will be able to act next turn.

Cat finds herself in the Zephyr's vita-chamber, she can either stay put and get healed or move.

Vohon grows in anger and frustration as the subject of his anger was teleported away. After a few moments hesitation the flames he's wreathed in fade to nothing as he sit on his haunches, "YOU HAVE ME, I SURRENDER. DON'T THINK THIS ENDS HERE DR. LAZARUS WILL COME FOR ME AND THE EQUIPMENT STOLEN FROM HIM. NOW TAKE ME TO YOUR JAIL I'M HUNGRY FROM BATTLE.

Alloy and Cold Snap never resurface.

end of combat

"Cosmos to Zypher, patch me through to the Smarties... Carver, There is a bear waiting for you on the dock. He's ready to go to jail, or so he says." With a swagger Cosmos holsters his ppg and goes to help his injured friends.

Jo gasped as her eyes snapped open, just moments ago she had ducked, rolled, and scrambled away from the bear as it began to unleash an explosion of fire, she'd closed her eyes just before the flames caught up with her and then suddenly things were MUCH less hot and on top of that she was no longer moving.

She found herself in the unfamiliar surroundings that made up the vita-chamber resulting in Jo taking the only course of action that made any sense to her still adrenaline fueled mind. She started thrashing about in an effort to escape whatever sort of confinement she was presently inside not knowing it was simply a part of the Zephyr "Zed Athena someone tell me where the hell I am before I start ripping things apart" Jo said as already she was searching for some means of escape primarily by means of kicking anything that looked like a hatch while doing her best to ignore the throbbing pain from the wounds that the bear and it's fire had managed to inflict.

Athena's singsong mechanical voice plays gently in the darkness, "Cat, There is no cause for alarm. You have been transmatted directly into the Zephyr's Vitapod. You blacked out briefly while it treated your concussion, that is what is causing your disorientation. In eight seconds the pod will complete the repairs of the micro-fractures in your pelvis.

Repairs complete. I will open the pod door now. If you return to the pod, it will take about another 30 seconds to reduce the swelling and contusions that will continue to cause pain. I will return to transmatting the police agents to the ambulances behind the S.M.R.T. cordon."

The top of the slightly larger the clam-like cocoon swings open, revealing the familiar interior of the Astral Zephyr. It's easy to make your way to the bridge.

The NYPD moves in followed by the remaining S.M.R.T.ies and NYFD.

An average slightly overweight middle aged man approaches along with two uniformed cops in tow. "I'm Capt. Lafferty which one of you heroes is in charge? I'd like to get your statements on what happened before Hubert gets involved." as he says that he indicates a balding man in the background barking orders. Hubert but is generally ignored except for the remaining S.M.R.T.ies who ignore the ongoing fires and general destruction and begin setting up a blockade around the shipping crates that the villains were trying to steal.
You can begin by telling what the hell is going on and why there is a bear looking at me?

Qnetic leans over Liberteen, switching to his biomanipulator form and healing her from her most recent wounds.

1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25 vs DC 10 Four degrees of success

DoQNetic nods, satisfied that the healing was a success. Young lady, it looks as if you are going to be keeping this me quite busy.
