A.N.G.E.L.'s page

I'm going camping off the grid this weekend and will not have Internet access, so please bot me as necessary.

Angel is quick to get into the van. An entanglement with the authorities is the last thing she wants. If they run her name through a database...

Angel punches at the ganger.

Fighting: 1d6 ⇒ 6 Wild: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Damage: 1d12 ⇒ 12

Ace for Fighting: 1d6 ⇒ 4
Ace for damage: 1d12 ⇒ 11

Raise damage for Fighting (if appropriate): 1d6 ⇒ 3

I posted my opinion, which was that both options are viable, but the board seems to have eaten it. As I say, both are viable to me, though if I had to choose one, I'd go with the first one.

Angel raises an eyebrow, as though she had fully expected the thug to surrender. She swings her arm in a backhand slap.

Fighting: 1d6 ⇒ 3 Wild: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Spending a benny to reroll.

Fighting: 1d6 ⇒ 2 Wild: 1d6 ⇒ 6 Ace!: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Damage w/Raise: 1d12 + 1d6 ⇒ (8) + (3) = 11

Angel - you won't see his response until all the other PC's have posted their actions. How far away from him in inches/squares are you?

Let's say that she closes to melee range.

Angel steps to the nearest thug and says, "Please surrender. I don't want to hurt you!"

I'd like everyone to verify that the following information is correct :

ANGEL : Parry 5, Toughness 16; 3 Bennies
Fortune : Parry 11, Toughness 10; 6 Bennies
Hellion : Parry 13, Toughness 17(6); 3 Bennies
Rashomon : Parry 5, Toughness 22(6); 4 Bennies
VeeSix : Parry 6/7, Toughness 22(2); 3 Bennies

Thanks!

Angel looks correct.

Angel exits the vehicle, ready for a fight.

I guess that Angel is driving, so no check for her.

"Perhaps we should look over the meeting scene beforehand to familiarize ourselves with the terrain?"

"I am prepared."

Angel watches Hellion exit after her statement. Turning to Fortune, she says, "I do not understand. What has happened?"

I'm going to be out of town at Walt Disney World Dec 1-6 and will likely be unavailable to post (though if I get a moment, I may check-in). Please bot me as necessary during this period.

"I agree with Rashōmon. We should fit them with tracking devices and find out where they are bound."

Angel remains outside, watching to be sure that no one sneaks up on the group.

Notice: 1d4 ⇒ 3 Wild: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Angel stands by, waiting for Fortune to do her thing. She is alert for any sounds of trouble as she waits.

Stealth: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 Wild: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Stealth: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 Wild: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10 Ace!: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Notice: 1d6 - 4 ⇒ (2) - 4 = -2 Wild: 1d6 - 4 ⇒ (1) - 4 = -3

Angel is next through.

Stealth: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 Wild: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Notice: 1d6 - 4 ⇒ (1) - 4 = -3 Wild: 1d6 - 4 ⇒ (3) - 4 = -1

Angel agrees that intercepting the vessel at sea is probably the best option.

It should be noted that "innocent" to Angel means anyone who has not attacked first. She would be more inclined to try to talk them out of their criminal enterprise. Yes, I know that isn't a realistic option, but Angel doesn't know that. She truly believes that all humans are good at the core.

She will not fight unless given no other option, and even then, she will not kill.

"Perhaps we should give them a chance to repent?"

I'm good with two.

Angel listens to the others but has reservations. The last thing she wants is for innocents to get caught in the crossfire. Busting heads was all well and good, but they had to be certain that they were punishing the right people.

I think that Angel works best in a backup role. She will take up a position where she can see Rashomon, but is hidden (let's say a rooftop about 2" away).

Angel is open to anything that needs to be done, though she will have some problems passing as an addict, as she doesn't know how an addict should act.

Absolutely. Angel has no desire to be in a gang in the literal sense. She merely wants to be a part of the team.

"I agree that sticking together may be better. Many of the gangs are armed with V'Sori weapons, making them more dangerous."

I'll go with her," Angel volunteers.

"That is wonderful!" Angel exclaims and her eyes support her genuine excitement. "Can you teach me to do that?"

Angel is designed to pass perfectly as a human female, short of a medical examination. Her mannerisms may give her away, as she is only 3 months old at this point. She is afraid of revealing her true nature as she has seen the reactions of humans to strange and new things, and she was told by her creator that she would never be fully accepted into the world.

Angel's room is spartan, without even a bed. There is a couch and a few chairs for visitors, as well as a desk and a computer, but that's about it. She has few possessions beyond an electrician's bag.

"Well, I'm pretty strong and I'm a good shot with this blaster that I took from a V'Sori."

Angel nods to the newcomers. "I'm Angel. I guess that I don't have a codename yet. I'm very pleased to meet you."

Angel is good with the upgrades, and as long as she has a room and a power port, she's happy.

"Hi. My name is Angel, Angel Kasden. I...guess I don't really have a codename yet. But it is a pleasure to meet you." She holds out a hand. If taken, you find that her grip is surprisingly strong, for one so slight.

"Hello?" The young woman with the black hair and blue eyes looks very out of place standing in the doorway to the warehouse. "Is there anyone here?" Standing only 5'6" and weighing about 130 lbs., she looks more like a young woman who is lost, rather than a superhero. Her "costume" is street clothing; a leather jacket, jeans, and a nice blouse. She looks like she has just come from a high-school prom.

"What are gods?" Angel asks, honestly not knowing the answer.

Angel approaches her group with some trepidation. Her appearance is human enough, and it would be difficult to tell that she is an artificial being without a detailed internal examination. She wears blue jeans and a t-shirt with the image of another well-known hero on it. Her reddish-orange hair cascades around her shoulders and her green eyes are wide and alert. She holds up her colored bracelet as she approaches, to show that she is in the right group.

"It looks like I am in this group," she says. She looks over each of the other members. "Lucas! It is good to see you! Wait, was I not supposed to use your name?" She looks genuinely concerned.

Please, everyone, call me Angel." She indicates the paper name badge on her left breast, obviously very proud of it.

College presents more opportunity for super-heroics and gives a way for us to take classes that normal students do not, but I admit that the fun of playing a high school student appeals to me.

I'm all for a round-robin, so long as someone else kicks it off, so I can see the system in action and study up on it a little more.

I'm happy to have ANGEL involved with Arcanum and/or Gallant. Either one would make a good "first encounter" for her. I imagine that she would introduce herself with her full title, only to have one of them shorten it to ANGEL.

Who all do we have, anyway? And when were we planning on kicking off?

Yeah, I have a character in my Mutants & Masterminds game who is in a similar situation. She is a student, but also happens to be a four-armed, green alien with antennae and purple hair! She wears a holographic belt that projects an image of normalcy.

Hmmm, there is that. ::thinks::

I like the idea of hidden classes within a normal school. Maybe supers are treated like special-needs or vo-tech students. Several of their classes are perfectly normal, but others are strictly for metas. ANGEL works best if she has normals around to play off of, as I can then play up her naivete.

And here she is... ANGEL!
