Okay Ex, Moon Moth is up!
-
Okay, Tsunami will pull some water from a pond and use it as her platform to fly over to the main fight. She will then send a water blast at Sakuna, getting a 20 on the attack roll. That is a DC 27 toughness save if it his (and a +14 attack for knockback purposes)

The last conscious thug stopped struggling against Coiled Lightning as he realized that the hero was correct, even if he was able to get free, he was unlikely to get far. He could move his head just enough to catch a glimpse of the wolf-thing that had stopped the car prowling around. More squad cars arrived as the police began gathering up the criminals from the assembled heroes. "Thanks for the help." One of the officers stated to the heroes. "We caught up with these guys right as they were pulling away from a jewelry store they broke into."

Nope, I will be making a post right now to that effect.

Okay, here is a start for our guidebook page!

The Praetorians Over two thousand years ago, the Delaztri Empire was one of the major space powers in the Milky Way Galaxy. The most powerful protectors of the Empire were the Praetorians, a group made up from powerful individuals from many of the races and planets that were part of the Empire, and beyond. At times numbering over a hundred members, for centuries the Praetorians protected the Empire from threats both internal and external in nature. When the Communion attacked the Delaztri Empire, the Praetorians lead the Empire’s military forces against the threat. After a series of epic battles, the Communion was turned back, but at great cost. After the final battle, barely two dozen Praetorians survived, with all of the organizations senior leaders among the dead. As the Praetorians and Delaztri Naval forces made their way back to the heart of the Empire after the victory, they were intercepted by one of the Curator's museum ships. The Curator had monitored the Praetorians’ conflict against the Communion and decided to add the surviving Praetorians to its collection of specimens, intending to keep them on hand should the Communion return. Weakened by their battle with the Communion, the surviving Praetorians were captured by the Curator’s drones. Taken to the Curator's ringworld, the Praetorians were placed in suspended animation by the Preserve AI, several of the spacecraft the organization used being placed in storage as well. Following the destruction of Lor-Van by the Communion, the Curator and Vince revived the Praetorians. Although the Delaztri Empire had long ceased to exist, the revived Praetorians did not hesitate in acting to defend the galaxy from the Communion threat. The Praetorians soon joined the Coalition that had formed against the Communion incursion, helping bolster the Coalition's military forces and carrying out other key missions against the Communion. Following the defeat of the Communion, the Praetorians rededicated themselves to offering aid and protection to those in need throughout the galaxy, building on the connections they made as part of the Coalition, particularly in their association with the Lor and Star Knights.

Yep, certainly something I want to put together Vahn!

Professor Chiron soon recovered from the attack of one of the antibodies, given Ulysses a small nod as the team power hero asked if he was alright. "Yes, thank you, just caught a bit off guard by that attack." The Greek hero replied. "They do seem to have a number of offensive abilities. Beyond the claws, I would guess that electrical shock you were affected by targets the nervous system." They are coming along, but not nearly quickly enough. Synapse responded to Coiled Lightning’s question about the UniStorm fighters. The Communion still has a shot at catching them on the ground if we do not hold the line. The Englishwoman hazard to open her eyes and glance at the monitors inside the control room, quickly taking in the telemetry tracking the Communion forces. And speaking of….the next wave of Communion fighters should be coming into view in moments. She then transmitted, closing her eyes once more and taking a deep breath as she began preparing herself if she was needed to try to help stop any more of the Communion’s ground forces.

Okay, he misses his toughness save, so is going down!
-
So, even though Incursion has not officially wrapped up, I figured it was time to get things rolling with a post-Incursion thread for the team (this one would actually be all the PCs, something that is probably not advisable most of the time, but is of for this one). Hopefully Hestina will be able to get her character rolling soon (and maybe Sorus as well?), as I hope to have this thread up sometime next week.
-
Okay, so things should be wrapping up with Incursion by the end of this month. Figured I would put this up to help us coordinate things with the growing roster of PCs and for people to plan threads for Praetorian teams. As it stands now, we have: Old Team (those held in suspended animation by the Curator) Paradigm (Thevshi) The Traveller (Tiffany Korta) Elite (Blue Rose) Dragonid (ca_lazerdwarf) Kharag (RobRX) Moon Moth (Exaccus) Huhunu (Mad Scientist) Mater Vyrdna (Vahnyu) New Members (those who join/associate with the team post-Incursion) Corona- Lor Liaison (Raveled) Cavalier- Star Knight Representative (Trollthumper) Other members that are in the works/possible… Ringdown (old team member) (Sorus) [Eve] (old team member) (Hestina) Solar Sentinel (new member) (Thunder King)

Round Four 26 Wildcat (bruised, 0 HP) 21 Coiled Lightning (bruised, 1 HP) 19 Skaere (unharmed, 0 HP) 16 Thugs (2, one pinned by CL) 10 Phantasmo (unharmed, 1 HP) Wildcat is up!
-
These thugs have been real lucky. We will say he manages to hold them up with one hand, which is how he avoids the trip. Go ahead and post IC!
-
Well Shoe, that should be a stunted alt power, but I will let that slide in this case, because this is really just the opening sequence of the thread (and people have been burning a lot of HP for an opening scene!, which I plan to pay back). You need to make a Trip Check (1d20+6), the thug gets a 19 on his Strength check against the trip. I take it you were after the thug who ran into the alley?

With their presence confirmed, the group started moving forward more quickly toward the location the Lor technicians had indicated as their target. Communion antibodies had begun moving out of surrounding buildings, but not so quickly as to easily block their path. A few that had managed to move too close to the group's path were easily deal with on the move by the gathered heroes. But there were many, many more of the Communion beginning to mass behind the group. As the group drew near one of the compuformed buildings, they came to a small plaza that lay between them and their target. Dozens of the Communion were gathered in the plaza, forming a small wall between the group and their target. Up in the sky, the group could hear the shrill sound of Communion needle fighters, as a trio of the craft streaked into view, flying down low among the buildings and headed toward the plaza.
-
Okay everyone might as well get initiative rolls made, as we will likely need them soon.
-
APPROVED
-
This pair of antibodies lying in wait roll poorly on their stealth checks, so Gabe is able to spot them before getting too close for them to try to jump him. You are free to attack!

Geckoman's expert piloting easily maneuvered the Pegasus through the gravity distortions and debris caused by Dark Star with little more than a few bumps and shakes as evidence of the hazards. As the hero brought the spacecraft arching into view of the Communion world killer, he and his companions got their first up close view of the massive weapon, save for Cavalier, who had previously gotten up close and personal with the world killer in orbit around Lor-Van. Where at Lor-Van the massive sphere had seemed to possess a seamless metallic surface, until it had opened an iris shaped opening to fire its wormhole creating weapon, the world killer now had rents and breaks in several places. While the powerful gravimetric forces unleashed by Dark Star had damaged the world killer, it was far from dealt with. But the damage had created openings which could be used to gain access to the interior. "Geckoman," came Daedalus voice over the comm system, "use the opening at Z45B30 as your entry point! Try to stay in contact as best you can, and good luck!"

GM Energy blasts streaked around the glowing Praetorian hovering above plateau where Seresk was trying to take out the last of the heavy weapons. Individually, the pirates' blasters presented little threat to the female Praetorian, but she was not about to let them try to combined their fire on her or her teammate. With Seresk right next to the last heavy weapon, the energy controller turned her attention to a group of pirates firing at the pair. Extending her hands out in front of her, the glow around the Praetorian intensified, as energy began to build up between her hands. Then, rapid bursts of energy lanced out from her hands, arching out in a wide cone-shaped pattern. Multiple blasts struck the ground, blasting apart rocks and kicking up dirt. Five of the pirates were caught in the barrage, knocked backward dozens of feet from the force of the impacts, where they lay unconscious.
-
The energy controller with Seresk will turn to deal with some of the pirates firing at them, unleashing a cone targeted area. She will Take 10 to hit five of them, they all fail their toughness saves and go down. Tiff, Traveller is up!
-
Okay Shoe, Phantasmo is up!
-
Well, what route does Gabe want to use KD? There is the central core (where the lifts usually run through) and a pair of emergency stairwells. Also, give me a Notice check please.
-
With half of the thugs down, the remaining two did not seem to have much will to try and continue fighting. The one that had not been engaged yet by any of the heroes continued to run, disappearing into the darkness of an alleyway down the block. The man that Coiled Lightning had tackled tried to struggle, nearly managing to break free from the hero's grasp. But in the end, Coiled managed to maintain his leverage and keep the man pinned to the ground. Back near the car the criminals had been driving, the police officers had exited their car, hands on their sidearms as they eyed Skaere nervously.
-
Sure, that works for me.
