Thevshi

Paradigm As Wayfinder ordered a surrender of the vessel, the crew (mainly held in check by fear of Sovereign) ceased fighting and lay down their weapons. The renegade Khanate forces that had joined Sovering to oppose Kinarr khan were less willing to surrender, and the former key lieutenants to Kinan Khan managed to slip away in the chaos, taking a shuttle craft from n auxiliary docking bay and fleeing the system. A short time later, the Praetorians, members of the Freedom League and the several other heroes that had assisted in the battles against Sovereign and his forces were gathered on the bridge of the Lighthouse. On the large viewscreen could be seen Sovereign’s cruiser, now flanked by two Lor cruisers. A dozen Star Knights were also present to assist in taking the vessel and its crew into custody and returning them all (along with Sovereign) to the Republic. During the battle against Sovereign’s forces, additional information had come in indicating that the new Star Khan had also assisted the Young Guardians in stopping the supervillains that had been attempting to break Mindfire out of custody and attacked several AEGIS agents in the process. Paradigm stepped forward to look at the gathered group of heroes. Standing near the Praetorians was the Kinarr Khan and Justicar Vor'an. Although the latter had been injured during the battle aboard Sovereign’s cruiser, he had remained at Star Khan's side once he had returned from the surface. "On behalf of the Lor Republic and Coalition Council, I would like to extend our deepest gratitude to the Freedom League and all the others who joined us today in capturing Prince Dovox and many of his followers. Since the dark days of the Incursion, I have always appreciated the opportunity to work with the heroes of this world. In addition to assisting in the capture of one who has long stood as a threat to the stability and prosperity of the Coalition, we have also insured that the peace treaty offered by the Stellar Khanate will have the opportunity to move forward, rather than failing before it even began." "It cannot be understated how significant and far reaching this peace will before much of this quadrant. When finalized, and if all sides truly commit to it, I expect it will bring benefits to all involved that will be felt for generations to come." The purple haired Naram looked over toward Kinarr as she finished. "In addition to offering my thanks for all your assistance, I would also like to offer my apologies," the young Zultasian began as he stepped forward next to Paradigm. "To the Freedom League and other gathered heroes of Earth, I am sorry for any concern, inconvenience or other disruption my arrival has caused to you and your world. I appreciate having the opportunity to visit your world and stand beside some of you against Dovox. I hope that if we meet again, it will be under more pleasant circumstances." "Kinarr and I appreciate the offer to set us up for a…. 'dinner date' at the 'Starlight Room.' However, I am afraid we will need to…I believe the phrase is, 'take a rain check.' I understand that the negotiations of the peace agreement between the Khanate and the Republic and Coalition worlds has been progressing, but Kinarr is needed back at CoVic station to help finalize and approve the final agreement." She looked over towards Kinarr briefly before focusing on those gathered once more. "Again, I thank your assistance today and look forward to seeing all of you again under more peaceful circumstances."

Timeout Lawrence opened himself to his cosmic senses, his eyes glowing blue as cosmic energy seeped from them. Carefully studying the area around the group, the blond teen he sensed something that seemed to tap into temporal energy located higher up on the oil rig. Closing his senses off again, the cosmic energy dissipating, he glanced over towards the others. "There is some sort of temporal effect high up on the oil rig, possibly the very top." "Iris, you up for heading up there see what it might be?" He asked as he prepared to move himself through time and space towards the upper levels of the derelict rig.

GM Laar looked over towards Eclipse as she spoke up about the potential benefit for Thuarus if it made connections with the Coalition. "That is very true Captain. With Gor'an now in custody, perhaps a delegation traveling to CoVic Station is in order." He then turned back towards the young Kinarr Khan. "I thank you again Star Khan for your assistance, if the Republic does formalize a peace agreement with the Stellar Khanate, I expect that will go a long way to making independent worlds such as Thuarus more willing to enter into similar agreements." The young Khan gave a nod to the Lor ambassador. "I know it is not easy to move past decacycles of oppression by my father. I hope with time I can earn the trust of those that were once forcefully brought into the Khanate." He then turned toward Eclipse and Rock, giving them a nod as well. "As things appear under control here now, I will be on my way. There is still much to do." With that, the young Star Khan activated his armor's flight systems and took off into the air once more, quickly climbing until he was soon out of sight.

GM Neko's giant skeleton fell backward to the ground before it faded away after the last attack on it. Meanwhile, Iris psychic blast caused the black armored Omegadrone to stagger backward as it appeared injured and dazed once more. Meanwhile, the tall female Annihilist shook off her daze as with a quick movement was back up on her feet, drawing her sword up behind her as her eyes locked onto Bernadette. Snarling, the Annihilist rushed forward, swinging her sword towards the Irish redhead. The hulking form of Bruiser moved in front of Bernadette again, ready to take the attack once more. The sudden appearance of the massive figure seemed to throw off the Annihilist as her sword glanced harmlessly off Bruiser's side and completely missed its intended target.

Okay, Martinet will her daze (HP to Multi-Girl) and kip up to her feet and move back in to attack Multi-Girl and Bruiser will Interpose once again: but she misses anyway! @Tiffany Korta Starshine is up!

So, DC 23 Will save: I rolled a 15 (rolled it as toughness, but will keep it Will), so I believe that is another bruise (up to 2) and dazed again)

Umm, isn't Space up with Paper next?

GM Spaceman landed several hits on the flying woman, slamming her down into the ground. She lay unmoving for a moment before fading away. Then another of the recent summoned figures went into motion, a cat-like humanoid that rushed over towards Golden Star. The large muscular male felinoid snarled at Michael as it slashed at him with its claws, but the teen was just able to dodge aside. Back over towards the center of the park, Paradigm looked over at one of the recently restored Praetorians, the hulking eight foot reptilian figure that she had restrained while it was still a Communion drone. Speaking to it in a language no one present understood, she pointed over towards Lawrence, the flew over to engage some of the new enemies. The Praetorian flew down to attack the felinoid that had attacked Golden Star, but the agile figure was able to dodge her attack with ease. Meanwhile, the eight-foot-tall reptilian Praetorian moved over to stand near Lawrence and Mizuki, taking up a defensive position near them, looking around for any potential threats….

That is certainly a hit, the time shade fails her toughness save, so goes down. Zadvian will rush over to attack Golden Star, but misses with a 14. Paradigm will fly in to attack Zadvian, but she also misses with a 15. @The Sailor Torpedo Lass is up!

GM Neko's giant skeleton took more damage, but was still in the fight as the cat-girl and Owain briefly took sanctuary from the chaos thanks to Owain’s invisibility, as chaos continued to swirl around them. Meanwhile, the members of Force Ops continued to fight, as El Gato pressed the advantage on one of the black armored Omegadrones which had been staggered and dazed. The cat-woman leapt forward slashing her claws and piecing the drone’s armor, causing it more wounds, but still not dropping it. Kismet took aim at another of the black armored Omegadrones, firing a well-aimed burst from her assault rifle that managed to hit the drone in one of the gaps in its armor, spraying dark ichor across the pavement. The Omegadrone stumbled backward a few steps, dropped down to its knees and after a moment’s pause, fell forward to lie on the sidewalk unmoving. Meanwhile, most of the other black armored Omegadrones were recovering from various attacks, pulling themselves back to their feet and preparing to keep fighting. One was still active, flying up into the air and unleashing a powerful energy blast in the giant skeleton summoned by Neko…

Forgot the one Elite Omegadrone that is not dazed, it will power attack -2/+2 Neko's summoned minion and take 10 to hit it. DC 26 toughness save @Avenger Assembled

Another bruise and injured to the giant then. Round Three 28 El Gato (Unharmed) 21 Kismet (Unharmed) 19 Elite Omegadrones (6: 1 bruised and dazed; 1 bruised x2, injured x1; 1 bruised x2 and dazed; 2 bruised, staggered and dazed; 1 staggered and dazed) 18 Cerebral 2 HP (Unharmed) 17 Madrigal Martinet (bruised 4, dazed, prone) 16 Starshine 4 HP (bruised, injured) 15 Multi-Girl 4 HP (Unharmed) 15 La Puma Negra 4 HP (Unharmed) 15 Bruiser (bruised, injured) 12 Neko 0 HP (Unharmed) 12 Copper Knight (Unharmed) 11 Jotunn 4 HP (injured, bruised) 10 Neko’s Giant (Minion, bruised x2, injured x2, dazed) 6 Network (Unharmed) 6 Omegadrones (8 on group) 4 Archer (bruised, injured, prone) 4 Cerebellum (bruised, injured) El Gato is going to stay after one of the elite Omegadrons, hitting with a 28. DC 24 toughness save: 25, so that is another bruise for the on that has a bruise and staggered condition. Kesmit will attack the same another of them (power attack -3/+3 dam): hitting with a 28 (full auto bonus): so DC 27 toughness save: 13, so that one that was staggered and dazed goes down. @Dracostern it is Iris's turn!

Timeout Lawrence had been rather quiet as he had listened as the English hunter reveled how he had gotten to the Lost World and what his general plan had been. It certainly did sound as if the Serpent People were hoping to cause some trouble for Kazra and her family, and possibly even hoping to get one of them killed. As Iris asked Neko about trying to contact the school, the blond teen looked over to the pair. "It is not as if there is any easy means of communicating from here. But regardless, if it comes to it, I think I have a sense for this pocket dimension now, I can likely get us back to Claremont anytime we need to go, if it comes to it."

NPC/Lynn Lynn had glanced over at Jack as the large teen turned away to look at some of the paintings. She looked as if she were about to follow him when Alden responded to her question. The blonde teen turned back towards the teen boy. "I've been to London and parts of central England, never made it up towards Scotland. I hear it is beautiful." Lynn stated. As the blonde girl spoke with him, Alden noted a man that seemed a bit out of place. He was a tall and appeared to be in good shape. But what really stood out about him was his attire. The man was wearing a green shirt with yellow sleeves and color and pants that were matching colors. In addition, he wore a black beret and dark sunglasses. His outfit might not have seemed too out of place, except for the fact that just behind him was another man identically dressed. The two seemed to be slowly scanning the crowd as they moved to stand near the doors leading to one of the side rooms. A little ways off, Jack had finished off his plate of snacks when he noted another man dressed in the same green and yellow outfit, beret and dark sunglasses standing near the door that seemed to lead to back rooms. Standing next to him was another man, this one dressed in a dark suit with a top hat, although he wore the same dark sunglasses as the first.

Timeout/NPC Lawrence gave Mizuki a small smile. "Well, I was going to say the South of France is at peak season right now. But the Scottish Highlands is certainly an option if you prefer." He glanced over towards where some of the others were before looking back at his girlfriend. "So, playing another round here, or is there something else you want to try?" Meanwhile, Lynn considered the two choices Michael suggested, but before she could voice any preference, Daniel spoke up agreeing with the dance game. "That is more my mom's thing. So, I am just fine watching." She replied with a half-smile before her expression became more neutral once again.

Multi-Girl Bernadette returned Vik's smile with one of her own. "Busy." She replied to the other’s question. "As if finishin' up the term an’ getting’ ready ta graduate wasn’'enough, you know how busy Charlie has been keepin' us," the redhead glanced over towards her boyfriend a moment before looking back at Vik with a small grin, "an' if all that wasn' enough, things have really started movin' fer the band." The Irish teen turned as Luke arrived and Murine made her way down from her room given the two a smile. "Well everyone is here, might as well start making ourselves comfortable an’ pick out a movie ta start with." She said as she took a seat on one of the couches, saving a spot for Charlie. She listened as Vik suggested Alien and Neko expressed approval. "Well, that is two votes fer Alien, anyone else?"

GM Neko and Owain disappeared as they started to move away from the center of the battle. The skeletal giant swung its arm through the air, swatting four of the Omegadrones away, sending them flying backward to slam into a building across the street. Two smashed through windows and landed inside, the other two slammed into the wall before falling to the sidewalk. Bringing its arm down, it tried to smash the Annihilist on the ground nearby. Even though she was on the ground, the raven haired woman was able to roll away and avoid the attack. Carmen also dover aside, dodging the attack. Network sparked through the air, sending a bolt of lighting out that arced through two of the black armored Omegadrones. The first went ridged from the blast and was knocked off it feet, injured and dazed. The second was struck by the bolt, but withstood the electrical blast with minimal effect. Meanwhile the eight remaining Omegadrones in red armor swarmed around the skeletal giant, all flying in to stab at the giant. Working in two groups, they managed to land two powerful attacks on the giant. Meanwhile, in a quick motion, Archer kipped himself back up to his feet, pulling an arrow out of his quiver. Leving the arrow at the remaining black clad Omegadrone and fired the weaker armor at the neck. The arrow struck, causing the Omegadrone to stagger slightly backward. "You okay kid?" He asked to the nearby Daniel who was still dazed from being struck earlier.

Okay, Network will send a blast of electricity at the two Elite Omegadrones still on their feet at the moment. Hitting with a 22. DC 25 toughness saves: 18, so bruised and dazed; the other gets a 27, so is fine. The eight remaining normal Omegadrones will all focus on the giant. They will attack in groups of four, combined attacking: First group: three hit, so DC 26 toughness save @Avenger Assembled Second group: also have three hit, so another DC 26 toughness save @Avenger Assembled Archer gets back to his feet and full power attacks as he shoots at the remaining elite Omegadrone that is not dazed: hitting with a 23; DC 25 toughness save: 21, so it picks up another bruise.

Will say that catches four of the normal Omegadrones attacking the giant in the sweeping attack. They cannot make the toughness save, so go down. That unfortunately still misses Martinet, and luckily also misses La Puma, who was standing right next to her after attacking her.

Okay, then he will open up his cosmic senses again and try to pin-point and study the time anomaly. He will use his Quickness 7 to take 20 on any Notice/Search check.

@RocketLord Need the two toughness saves above and then it is Parker's turn.

That will hit the elite Omegadrone that shot at Starshine. Unfortunately, it tanks the hit with a 29 on its toughness save.
