GM U.S.Archer looked between Ashley and Luke. Bow still in hand, he barely afforded Luke a glare. No, he was fully focused on Ashley. "The adults are talking." It was clearly directed at Luke, even if he didn't look in his direction. Right now, his eyes were entirely focused on Ashley and her weapon. "Matt Wagner", U.S.Archer put emphasis on the name, "is not a civillian. He is dangerous. Odds are that he was sent here to assasinate Miss Cahill." While he spoke, he lowered himself to the ground and placed his bow in front of himself, then stood up straight. "I've been tracking him for a while. From what I've gathered, he disappeared from the hospital a while ago, then turned up looking like that a short while later. He's been connected with several attacks on U.S. soil in the last few months." He paused. His eyes looked towards Matt briefly, before returning to Ashley. "He's hurt children. And yeah. Someone has obviously done something to him, probably against his will. He's got some kind of switch or something. Turn off Wagner, turn on the bad guy. He's hurt kids, for crying out loud, so yeah. But sure, if you want me disarmed, then whatever he's going to do, that'll be on you." Placing his foot under the bow, he kicked at it, sending it sliding across the floor towards Ashley.

GM The Aliengator shook its head, blinking wildly. It seemed disoriented, though whether from the fall or the sudden appearance through the portal, who knew? It grunted, exhaling loudly as it looked around the people that were starting to panic and run around it. It didn't even seem to care about its former prey standing ready, not with so many others running around. It growled and started to move towards a nearby woman... and ran face first into a wall of ice. With another grunt of annoyance, the Aliengator swung its tail at the ice wall.

As discussed on discord, a potential way to setup your powers, and moving noticeable into the shield. Also bumping the Sword Fighting array to the proper rank 9. Powers: = 12 + 12 + 1 + 1 = 26PP Plasma Rapier 4 (20DP Device; Flaws: Easy-to-Lose) [12PP] (Technology) Sword Fighting Array 6.5 (18DP Array; Feats: Alternate Power 2) [20DP] (Training) Base Power: Strike 6 (Remise; Extras: Autofire, Penetrating 6) {18/18} Alternate Power: Strike 6 (Lunge; Extras: Penetrating 6, Feats: Extended Reach 1 [5 ft.], Improved Critical 2, Precise) {16/18} Alternate Power: Strike 6 (Riposte; Extras: Action 3 [Reaction]; Flaws: Limited [Only After Opponent Misses in Melee]) {18/18} Personal Shield 3 (15DP Device; Flaws: Hard-to-Lose; Drawbacks: Noticeable [Produces Sound]) [11PP] (Technology) Concealment 4 (All Visual Senses; Extras: Duration [Continuous]; Flaws: Limited [Miss Chance Only]) [8DP] Enhanced Feat 6 (Dodge Focus 6) [6DP] Protection 1 [1DP] Leaping 1 (x2, Running Long Jump 28', Standing Long Jump 19', Vertical Leap 7') [1PP] Speed 1 (10 MPH / 100' per Move Action) [1PP]

I know I helped with a few things already, but let's give it another look. Abilities Looking good. Combat You should note how you arrive at Initiative +12 (+8 Dex, +4 Improved Initiative) You need to fill in Grapple and Knockback. Remember that Attack Focus [Melee] applies to the grapple bonus. Saves I got some good news for you about Defensive roll, but I'll put that under feats. Your Fort and Will saves are off, I guess you're using the ability scores bonuses from an earlier version where you have 18 Con and 12 Wis. Skills Looks fine. Feats We got a House Rule for Defensive Roll. 1 rank of Defensive Roll. You get +2 TOU per rank of Defensive Roll. With your high Reflex Save and low other saves, I'd consider increasing your Evasion to rank 2. You should note your enhanced feats here, just make a subheader, something along the lines of Enhanced Feats Dodge Focus 6 Improved Block Powers You should fix the formatting for your powers. Flaws, Feats, Extras etc. in italic, power name and rank in bold and so on. While you of course don't have to, why not spend the rest of the DP in the Strike powers for the Sword Fighting array? You could add Precise or more ranks of Penetrating to both, since it is a plasma rapier. As I mentioned when we discussed it over discord, I'm not really sure how useful the Riposte Strike will be, or if the refs will allow it. Just remember that in order to use it, you will have to remember to switch your array to Riposte at the end of your turn. Then, if you want to attack, you need to switch back on the next turn and won't be able to switch to Riposte again, so... something you gotta prep, at least. But I'll leave to the refs whether they'll allow it or not! Drawbacks You should apply the Noticable drawback to individual powers, but I'm not really sure if it would apply to any of the powers you got, since they're usually noticeable in some way. Maybe for your Concealment or Enhanced Feat powers in the Personal Shield? Final notes In order to meet caps with Toughness, I'd suggest you lower Defensive Roll to Defensive Roll 1, and switch the Improved Block feat from the Personal Shield to a single rank of Protection. That way your Toughness will be +6 (+3 Con, +2 Defensive Roll, +1 Protection), and you will have 2PP freed from your Feats that you can use to buy Improved Block as a non-enhanced feat and spend the last one to buy off the Noticable drawback, which should put you at 150/150.

My bad, here's the post in the right ooc: Ghost coming in with a sneak attack Stun vs. Purple Haze: 24 That's a hit. DC20 Fort save: 14 Purple Haze is stunned. And let's see some Initiative rolls @Nerdzul, @Spacefurry

Casper frowned under his mask. No. He was not expected home soon. Not like anyone was waiting for him. The only good thing about being alone was that he wasn't running late all the time after dealing with super hero stuff. "Nah. I've got time." Casper still wasn't sure what he thought of Frost, but he sure as hell wasn't going to start talking about the whole divorce and kid and being on his own with him just yet. That part was easier with Fleur, at least. He floated alongside Frost, following him as he moved. "So, what's the business? Seems like a peaceful place."
-
GHOST Yep, yep. Casper was right. Of course he was right. Oh, how he hated being right. This guy? This guy was up to trouble, and he was starting to get into a whole villain monologue thing here and he honestly didn't want to deal with that entire thing right now. So... Nope. A white hand came out of the floor next to Purple Haze's foot and passed through him, sending shocks through his entire body.

never mind this post But still give me a notice check

GM Luke and Leon were not the only ones that were starting to feel the effect. People around them were starting to react to the haze that was spreading from the DJ. Some were giggling and laughing like Luke. Others were starting to feel dizzy like Leon. And then a woman screamed, not far from Luke. "Get away! Get away! Monster!" She clawed blindly at the man she had been dancing with moments before, while he groggily shook his head. "You alright, hun?" Holly caught Leon, holding him up. "Had a bit too much?" She held him close. "Sounds like being a hero's boring, huh? How about doing something more exciting, huh? My brother? He wants to change the world. Maybe you want in? Gonna be real exciting stuff." "Alright, everybody! Are you feeling it!?" Purple Haze was shouting now. "Are you having a good time!?" It didn't sound like he cared about the screaming woman at all. Or the others in the crowd that was starting to join in. "Now's the time, my friends! Your wildest dreams, all coming true, all for you! Like what you see? Don't like it? It's all good to me!" His tone shifted, becoming more sinister. "Now Purple Haze's in charge."

GM The Bastion building seemed rather mundane from the outside. Nothing seemed especially out of the ordinary. If Chimera didn't accept Ghost's offer, she would find a fire escape on the side of the building, inside a small alley. She would at least be able to use that to get to the roof. The roof itself was sparse. A door in a small building, leading inside. A few vents making sure the building was properly ventilated. There was a keypad by the door.
-
Give me a notice check.
-
GHOST Casper looked after Chimera as she climbed down. Should he just get this over with, ghost them into the place and find whatever she was looking for, but... Nah. She had to do this, right. While Chimera made her way across the ground, Ghost flew down after her and held out a hand. "C'mon. I'll get you up there." If she accepted, he would ghost her and fly them both up to the roof.
-
Since you're dragon size, your Intimidate is at +14, for total +16 since you're chewing on Trawler. Roll to resist: 29 Well, Beekeeper proves to be incredibly brave right now, so no effect. @Nerdzul give me an IC.
-
You could always involve someone from Atom Academy, like Rocket ?
-
Yep, but it'll be at -5 to the roll. Tell me what Intimidate effect you want to use while you roll.

Casper frowned under his mask. No, it was not Frost he was bothered about annoying, but the owner of this place might not be a fan of having a Russian stuck in his walls or floors. He wasn't sure if Frost misunderstood or was just making another joke, so he decided to just shrug and let it go. "That's great, than-" Casper begun, before stopping as Frost finished his sentence and the chalk shape around the picture frame, and... then stepped inside the canvas. Ghost looked around a bit. No one else was around. So... magic of some kind? Chalk, ripples like that? It looked like magic. He wasn't a big fan, but... well, he just had to get over that. Taking a deep breath, he reached out and stepped into the canvas, emerging on the other side with a quick quip. "I guess I'm not the only one that walks through walls."
-
Justice Robin opened her mouth, starting to assure Ultra Girl that she'd respect that, but she could take a look if she wanted to, just to be on the safe side, but... then she froze when Ultra Girl held up her arm. Circuitry and metal under fake skin, some of it had obviously taken damage . Ultra Girl was an android. Not human. "That is so cool," she finally said, moving closer, reaching out for Ultra Girl's arm, and then stopping herself. No, no touching others, even if they had cool tech. Not without asking. "Do you have self repair or something like that to take care of the damage? I can still take a look and try to patch up the worst of it, if you want me to." She motioned with her head towards the garage, with her suits, and, well... everything around them. "I kinda got experience with tech." She paused. "It's cool if not, of course!"
-
GM "I'm good, thank you, Luke," Holly said, slowly trailing her fingers along his back before he moved away, before turning back to Leon. She smiled at him, moving slowly closer to him and grabbing his hand, pulling him along as she danced. "Nah, my brother had to get to work." She motioned with her head towards the DJ booth. "Purple Haze up there. Putting on a show, making sure everyone's having a good time." Holly still smiled, turning around and backing up close with Leon, brusing lightly against him. "So what's it like being a hero?" She was, quite frankly, intoxicating. Leon wasn't sure what it was, but everything was starting to kind of float together. Colors, lights, movement. It was all starting to get blurry. As for Luke? He didn't get far. The crowds around him... they were shifting, changing. He was starting to see things that shouldn't be there, things that couldn't be there. Monsters, Omega Drones, Red Death, dragons, all mixed and matched in with the crowds around him. Purple Haze continued his set as a purple mist spread through the warehouse.

He can see you, so that's gonna hit. But... so can everyone else that sees Shadowborne! This time I'll rate that just Red Death gotta save, since everyone's pretty busy.

Nevermore II The guy fell... and Kamala threw a stapler at the other that took him out. Charlie froze, just for a second. That was... either that guy was weak, Kamala was strong or that was just an extremely lucky shot. No matter what, there was something more to her than met the eye, wasn't there? Reaching into his suit case and going for his belt, Charlie pulled out a small gun metal colored ball, quickly rolling it across the ground towards the door. Once it was outside, it released a smoke cover, enough to give everyone pause before entering the room. At the same time, he pulled into the shadows, away from Kamala and the thugs, vanishing from sight.

Charlie rolls a smoke bomb out the door, to cover anyone that tries to get inside. AP: Obscure 6 (Visual Obscure; Extras: Independent (+0); Feats: Progression [Area] 1, Triggered 2, Variable Descriptor 2 [Any Technological]) (Range: 60 ft., Area: 250-500 ft. radius) {17/17DP} (Descriptors: Cover Grenade, Grenade, Darkness/Flashbang/Other) Gonna use Stealth with Hide in Plain Sight to kind of disappear, maybe even from Kamala: 25 Stealth with Skill Mastery.
