GM The Scarecrow freezes in place, as it stares It's elongated, twisted body is completely unmoving. "Unregistered entry detected. Unsanctioned intrustion." It seems to be scanning him. "Present credentials or face deletion."
-
@Kaede Kimura give me an IC of how that looks, then I'll move on with their reaction.
-
GM The woman accepts the help, climbing to her feet, supporting herself on Carmen. She slowly raises her hand, bruised as it may be. She looks like she doesn't quite believe what the catwoman in front of her is saying. "You don't know me?" she asks, the worry in her voice replaced by pure confusion. Then, her eyes glow light blue, and she stands up, reaching for Carmen's wrist, holding her in place. "I am the Centurion. When did you come from?"
-
Superior and the Superior Soldiers will skip their turn, to give the heroes a chance to respond before giving orders, which means @Thevshi is up.

Spaceman "C'mon, Michael," Parker says, joining Iris' question about whether he was going to play with them or not. It is a bit too obvious that he is going to go and try to help out with some of the issues that some of the others here are having. He needs to relax, too. "You can't solve everyone's problems, y'know." Parker is, of course, aware of the irony of him giving that advice. Whether Michael comes around or not, he turns to Iris with a shrug. "How about House of the Dead, then?"

GHOST "Daaad..." Carrie grumbles for a moment when Casper breaks her facade, but stops the moment Lynn pulls the card from behind her ear. She holds the card in her hand, looking at it for a moment, then back to her dad, then back to Lynn. With one final look at her dad, she follows Lynn, with Casper following closely behind. "That's really not such a special magic trick," she tries, holding the card as she looks around, clearly trying to seem less impressed than she actually is, both with the magic trick and the area. Taking the gift card, she looks at it for a moment. "I'm pretty sure that mom would call this a bribe..." she mutters, looking down at the gift card, before breaking into a smile. "Buuut I think I'll let it slide and see what you got here!" Watching Carrie going exploring, Casper comes up to Lynn, his hands in his pockets. "Are you bribing my kid now?" he asks, obviously teasing Lynn. "I'm pretty sure there's laws against that."

The STORMCROW A bit of tension in the air between Neko and Vik already, though Charlie can't really claim to be entirely surprised. You're either a dog person or a cat person, and Vik clearly seems to be the former. He waves quickly at the three as they enter. Looking at Pol's snacks, he frowns lightly. "We're gonna have to make a trip to the scrapyard to stock up soon, right?" Has to remind himself that he's not in charge of things here, it's just something nice and fun for them all to do together, but he likes to be prepared. Moving up to Vik, he leans in close and whispers. He knows that she wants to keep her dietary needs a secret. "How about you, Vik? Got everything you need? I made sure to do a snack run for you everyone got here. I dunno how you do with dried meat, but tried to get some kinds of that you could snack on."

ARCHER II Ah crap. Connor is already starting to move. He can guess what is coming. No arrow is gonna stop something like that. He turns, backs away, but he's not fast enough to get entirely out of the way as the damn thing explodes, the goo flying over him. Cursing, he rolls away, doing his best to start scraping whatever got on him off. He has no idea what that crap can do, he is not gonna risk it burning through him or worse.
-
Alright, Reflex Save to avoid the area: 18. Fail, but I got Evasion 2, so the Fort save is still halved to DC15. Fort save: 17 Just made it.
-
Spaceman Parker shrugs at the mention of his powers interfering with the scan. "It's not something I can control," he says apologetically. He's not stupid by any means, but this goes beyond what he knows. He's not shy about admitting that Tracy is the true genius in the family. Parker looks over to Daniel. "Are you alright with this?"
-
GM "You will?" Tracy asks, sounding at least somewhat surprised, but deciding to roll with it. She turns to the helmet, picks it up and hands it to Iris. "Here, let me help you. Just gotta adjust the strap a bit and once you got it on and are ready, we'll get started." Moving over to the computer, she starts tapping away at the keyboard, while she responds to Michael. "All regular people, Mike. I don't really have access to a whole lot of super people, so I got no idea how it'd look." She pauses for a second, looks over to Parker, before returning to the screen. "Tried scanning Parker, too, but it didn't work. His powers interfered." She continues for a moment more, then turns to Iris. "Alright, just say when, and we'll get started. I have no idea how this will feel for an actual psychic, but if it hurts or anything, let me know immediately, and we'll turn it off, alright?" Once Tracy sounds on the helmet for the scan, Iris will start feeling a hum in the helmet. It doesn't hurt, but it feels weird, like she is suddenly very far away from everyone, like she is all alone, and then it all comes rushing in, and she can feel the others, like her psychic abilities are being blocked, then comes rushing back. By her seat, Tracy's grinning. The scan of Iris mind is starting to appear, with several areas lighting up. "Are you doing alright, kid? Nothing weird or anything that hurts?"
-
GM The Scarecrow raises it's clawed hand once again. The Lion by the side of the counter growls lightly, but there is no threat in the noise that it makes. And then... the Scarecrow pauses. It's head tilts from side to side, as it observes Haven. "Query: Explain," it finally says, it's voice unchanged from before, even as it's proportions continue to twist and grow.
-
Not enough, I'm afraid! Just a failure by 8 for the save, so it's only a bruise, injury and dazed. Since you've cleared that, the Scarecrow is up. It does not attack, instead listening to what Haven has to say. 24 - Haven - 1HP - Bruise (x1), Injury (x1) 23 - Scarecrow - Unharmed
-
GM The ninja hisses as Neko taunts them, turning and failing to slash at her while she moves past. The taunt actually manages to earn a response, as the ninja shouts back "<Silence, traitor!>", not that it does the ninja much good, the flaming nagitana striking them straight in the face, the psychic backlash sending the ninja reeling. They only just manages to move out of the way of Stormcrow's attack, stumbling out of the wait as the riot foam expands next to them, before shaking their head, turning to growl at Neko. "<Traitor!>"
-
The STORMCROW "<Alright, boss ninja. Looks like it's just you and us now.>" Stormcrow moves across the rafters, nimbly moving between them while Neko shouts at the ninja. He jumps, flips and throws a small ball full of expanding riot foam at the ninja... and they move out of the way. He should've seen that coming. Even after taking that hit from Neko, it's a ninja. Maybe it's time to stop being cute and just get in close? "<Stand down, and we'll go easy on you. I promise, I'm the nicest guy here!>"
-
It is, however, enough, since I rolled badly and got 15 And not doing much better on the Will Save vs. the Mental Blast with an 18, failure by 5, which is a bruise and dazed... Charlie does a an Acrobatic Bluff to Feint, 30 with Skill Mastery. Elite Ninja resists with Acrobatics: 18 Then I use extra effort to get an extra action with Charlie, which means I can use a Full Action to use a Snare: 32. I did not need that feint, but oh well. Reflex Save vs. the Snare: 20, which is just enough to pass The Elite Ninja, who is pretty much alone now, clears the daze, and then @Thevshi is up next 28 - Stormcrow - 7HP - (Fatigued next round) 27 - Elite Ninja - Bruise (x2), Taunted (-2 on attack + checks until Neko's turn) 24 - Paper - 4HP - Unharmed 23 - Multi-Girl Dupe - Bruise (x1) 17 - Ninjas - Minions - 12x Defeated, 1 stopping due to being intimidated on the ground, 2 running away 17 - Multi-Girl - 2HP - Unharmed 9 - Neko - 1HP - Unharmed

You can't directly target someone you can't see, unless you got something that lets you circumvent the Visual Obscure, but that would be a miss anyway, but give me an IC, and @Spacefurry, you're up.

Guess you'll have to see

GM Superior stops in place, as the little blue alien and the cockroach kid speaks up to him. His face shows a bit of surprise, perhaps, but mainly, he just seems annoyed, like they are simply beneath him. "... Is that all? A blue imp, a bug and an inadequate successor and a little girl? Is this all that remains of heroes in this time?" He scoffs, shaking his head. "I am Superior. Die Übermensch. Go away, or face the consequences."
-
Superior will just talk for now, which means that @MoonSimply is up after my IC.

GM "Aw, now it's a party! Come on and have some fun!" Purple Haze yells, as he spreads his arms out and quite literally explodes into thick purple haze, as thick as smoke, obscuring himself, his sister and the Devil's Advocates, hiding them from view from the approaching heroes. They can all hear him laughing, moving around within the haze that he generates, spreading it further out as he relishes in the chaos he can create. The large man with the axe and the German style helmet, Cueball, grunts in annoyance as Stormcrow's contraption locks in place around his feet, chaining him to the ground. He glares at Stormcrow for a brief moment before disappearing into the haze, and then raises his axe, swiftly bringing it down on the machinery. Sparks flies from it, but it still in place.
-
The STORMCROW Alright, it's not everyone, but enough of the Guardians are here. They can do this. Charlie really hopes they can do this. Two groups of villains fighting, with people caught in between? At least he knows something about them. Purple Haze and Scarlet Mist can become their namesakes, and do lots of damage like that. They need someone that can hit that. The Devil's Advocates seem like bruisers, but they're more than that. So much worse. "We need someone that can hit the gas people to deal with them!" he shouts to the others. "Take the bikers are powered by the Four Horsemen. Take down hard if you get in close!" Speaking of... the big guy with the axe seems like he is going to be trouble. Reaching into his belt, Charlie pulls out a small cube and throws it at Cueball's feat, where it quickly expands out into a futuristic looking technological mesh that anchors itself to the ground, keeping him in place, at least for a moment.
-
Stormcrow's Well-Informed let's him know things about the bad guys that he'll share. Stormcrow throws a Snare at Cueball: 24, that's a hit. Cueball reflex save vs. DC20: 16. He is Entangled. Purple Haze seemingly explodes into a massive purple mist that fills the area, putting everyone under the effects of Visual Obscure while he keeps it up. Anyone moving closer enough to reach the villains will come under the effect. Cueball attacks the Snare. Snare TOU save vs. DC26: 22 It's still holding, but takes an injury. Then @Lone_Star is up, followed by @Spacefurry! All villains currently covered in Visual Obscure focused on Purple Haze: Total concealment (Can't attack directly, 50% miss chance on attacking target) 29 - Shadowborne - 3HP - Unharmed 26 - Multi-Girl - 3HP - Unharmed 25 - Multi-Girl Dupe - Unharmed 25 - Stormcrow - 5HP - Unharmed 20 - Purple Haze - Unharmed 19 - Cueball - Unharmed, Entangled (Atk/Def -2, Dex -4), Snare (TOU+10, 1 Injury) >19 - Ghule - 2HP - Unharmed 17 - Paper - 4HP - Unharmed 15 - Scarlet Mist - Unharmed 12 - Buddy - Unharmed 10 - Angel - Unharmed 8 - Nightscale - 4HP - Unharmed 7 - The Born Loser - Unharmed

BOUNCE! "Sorry, ma'am," Mattie apologizes again, not really realizing the irony in apologizing for her apology when she was told not to apologize. Once they are in the car and approaching the city, Mattie finds herself staring out the window in wonder, her mouth hanging just slightly open as she stares at the city and all the people. It's just so big and amazing. She's honestly amazed that Mrs. Howell can find her way around in a place like this, even if she's lived her all her life. All the houses are so big, she can see the skyscrapers in town and she's never seen one of those in real life before! She loves it! Mattie smiles brightly when Lynn asks her about what she is looking forward to doing. "Well, I'm really hopin' to make a lot of friends! And see the city! And meet all the big and famous super heroes like the Freedom League, Atom Family and everyone!" Her smile is growing big, slightly cartoony. "How about you, Lynn? Anythin' you wanna do together?"
