With the van through the group of camels, Dee straightened out the wheel and stepped on the accelerator, causing the van's engine to whine in protest as the van speed away from the riders. The young Englishwoman glanced in the rearview mirrors, just able to make out the riders swinging themselves around to try to continue the pursuit. "Well, shall we just leave them behind, or did you want to try to just deal with them here and now?" She called up to Erick, who was, thankfully, still up on the roof of the van.
-
She will just try to put some distance between them and the riders, but not do so well with only a 13.

So, Ulysses does not have those feats, but can use the house rules that allow him to get up to +2 for each. So, I take that to be -2 def/+2 atk, -2 atk/+2 dam? So +14 damage all together? Plus a critical hit for +19 damage, so DC 34 toughness save. The creature gets a 30, so picks up another bruise.

Giang took a moment once they were up at the starting line to consider the other competitors. She thought it was interesting that the two most experienced racers were positioned to the outsides of the group to start. She wondered if that was so they would immediately be facing off against one another, to provide for more dramatic moments when they finally did until later in the race. She noted Thaelia waving to someone in the crowd, recognizing her friend's half-sister, who had also attended Claremont. But the Asian teen had little time to consider Thetis' presence when the horn sounded and they were off. Having been given at least a seemingly advantageous position of being in the center of the group, Giang simply urged the giant sea horse forward, trying to make as much speed as possible to begin, before she began trying to position herself for the first turn.

The cat woman flew through the air, trying to twist and turn, but was unable to prevent herself from slamming into Machinefist. The superpowered thug had seen the makeshift missile coming, but had been unable to move aside, instead, he braced himself for the impact, and seemed relatively unhurt by it. Catseye meanwhile let out a small grunt of pain, but still flipped over to land on her feet beside Machinefist. She then sprinted back toward Freddy, lashing out with one of her claws again. "Well, you sure have a funny way of interpreting your pa's rules." With his attention fully on her this time, Freddy was able to duck underneath the attack, as Catseye's momentum carried her past him. She leapt up onto a stack of nearby crates, flipping around to face the stocky pugilist. Meanwhile, the two thugs that had accompanied Machinefist continued to try to wail away at Freddy with their clubs. Freddy managed to block one of them with a forearm, but the other got in under his defenses, landing a blow onto his side, but Freddy took the hit with little more than a grunt.

So, your good. Once you make your IC post, I'll make mine. Lucy is up!
-
I'll post after you make your IC post, in the meantime: Slice shoots at Coiled again, getting no better as he misses with an 8. The big thug tries to punch Liquify, and hits with a 21, so DC 23 toughness save for Liquify!
-
Catseye will move back over towards Mess and attack, missing with a 17, she will then continue past with Move By Action. The two thugs will both continue to attack Mess, getting 22 and 17, so one hit and one miss. DC 18 toughness save for Mess.
-
That does hit, but he just makes his toughness save.
-
That hits. Slice gets a 20 on his toughness save, so picks up a bruise. Go ahead and post IC! Liquify is up!
-
Synapse gets a 30 on her Notice check.

GM The giant earth creature let out another roar as it once again struggled with the bonds of glowing yellow energy. As with the first time, the bonds began to fracture and the break away, as the creature pulled itself free. Taking a few steps, the creature then lifted its head toward the flying twins, and raised both hands with another roar, sending another wide cone of rocks and dirt flying at the two young women. This time both were struck full force by the attack, the blast of debris knocking them both further upward into the air and sending them spinning out of control. Both were clearly hurt by the attack, dazed and not fully aware of where they were. After the momentum of the impact faded, they began falling back towards the ground, as their focus on their flight faltered. The now released Tundra quickly moved into action, extending her hands outward as she tore two chunks of rock and earth up from the ground. She then sent the rocks up into the sky, using them to effectively catch the two falling twins.

The Earth Monster struggles against the new energy bonds, and again breaks free. It will surge (HP to everyone) and send a targeted cone attack toward Crimson and Clover, hitting them both with a 23 (DC 29 toughness saves). Crimson gets a 29 so picks up another bruise and is dazed. Clover gets a 19, so she is staggered and dazed. The both are knocked back a good fifty feet in the air, and miss their concentration checks and begin to fall as their flight fails. Tundra will send two large chunks of rock up into the air to "catch" the unconscious twins. So, Ulysses is up!

Likely goes without saying, but to have it official… Character: Paradigm What she's doing: Another Praetorian, awoken to face the Communion with the others.

Giang looked over towards the tall form of Miss Grue as she mentioned needing some water. A glance back through her solid water wall showed the Asian teen that the PanStar security personnel were likely a safe enough distance away to shift the use of the water she was holding in her power. "I am called Tsunami." She stated in greeting as she shifted the water back to its normal liquid state. "And I can certainly provide some water." With that, she made a sweeping gesture with her hands, and the water twisted and turned through the air, arcing towards the large earth creature that was struggling against the energy bonds holding it. The water splashed onto the creature, and began to swirl about it, all under Tsunami’s careful control, as she tried to use the water to erode away parts of the creature, or at least weaken it. But as the water splashed around the ground, Ulysses getting a bit wet and muddy in the process, the effect on the creature seemed negligible. It seemed still pretty much intact, with only a few areas showing any sign of erosion and it still seemed as solid and durable as it did before.

Round Eight 18 Tsunami (unharmed, 2 HP) 14 Earth Monster (bruised 2) 9 Clover (unharmed) 9 Crimson (bruised) 9 Tundra (bruised) 8 Ulysses (unharmed, 1 HP) 7 Miss Grue (bruised 2, 3 HP) Last: Security guards (5) Okay, Tsunami will try a power stunt that would not work on other targets. She will stunt a Drain: Toughness (representing using the water she has handy to try to erode and weaken the earth creature. She will make it Perception Range, so 30 pp Drain (10 ranks). The creature gets a Fort Save (DC 20), and makes it with a 28.

So, with the reroll, Mess hits. DC 25 toughness save for both. Machinefist makes his with a 29. Catseye misses her's with a 14, but I will reroll that (HP back to Mess), getting a 11, which increases to 21, so a bruise.

GM Tundra fell to the ground when Miss Grue released her, landing on her feet, seemingly unfazed by the fall. The eco-terrorist stood back upright and looked over at the battle that was going on between the other superpowered individuals present and the massive earth creature. Meanwhile, the five standing PanStar security guards took advantage of the barrier Tsunami had provided them, and continued to drag their unconscious comrades away from the battle. The last remaining PanStar workers were all fleeing the scene as well, a few moving over the help pull away the unconscious security guards. All managed to put a fair bit of distance between themselves and the battle with the earth creature, many turning the corner around the factory and disappearing from sight.

That hits, but the creature makes its toughness save with a 25.
-
Yes, that hits, and she cannot beat that grapple check!

Dee watched with a bit of amazement as Ulysses easily brushed aside the two cultists that had been attacking Singh. But she knew that she should never have underestimated anyone who was a Power. "You're not dead yet, so you will be able to tell them yourself!" The young Englishwoman called out to Singh, even as she focused on the cultist that had attacked her. Red psychic energy lashed out at the man's mind, causing him to cry out in pain as he dropped his knife and reached both hands up towards his head. He staggered backward a couple of steps, before collapsing to the ground unconscious.

"Two thousand years...." Amara stated, the sheer length of time coming as something of a shock. The Naram was stunned for a moment, as she realized that her parents and other family members were long, long gone. The Empire she had sworn to give her life to protect was also gone, left to the pages of history, if not largely forgotten. She was looking down at the table in thought as Kharag reacted in a somewhat unexpected way. Then she heard Sitara's words and looked back up, focusing on the ancient warrior first as those words sunk in. "Yes. Yes, that is why the Praetorians were organized." Amara then looked about at the other Praetorians gathered around the table, many still in shock from the announcement of just how long they had been asleep. "Again Traveller is correct. The galaxy may not be as we remember it, but there are countless sapient races out there that will be destroyed if the Communion is not stopped. The Empire may be gone, but we have no way of knowing the fates of our various peoples. Many of them could still be out there, in the path of the Communion." "I for one am willing to stand against the Communion to protect those that cannot protect themselves. It would be my continued honor to do so along all of you."

AA and I will chat with some of the other refs about what might be gleaned Ex.
-
Synpase will mind blast the cultist that attacked her, DC 23 Will save (damage). She gets a 25 for her Fort save.
