Swinging back into action, Foreshadow swung out over the streets, the flashing lights of the police cars adding additional light to the dim streetlights. Despite the nagging in the back of his mind, Foreshadow had little choice but to try to intervene in the scene his gift had shown. Soon enough, he spotted, the alley in question, and saw that the police officer he had seen in his vision was nearing the entrance. Foreshadow knew where the hiding gang member was, so there was still just enough time to get ahead of the officer and prevent the gang member from opening fire.

Okay SG, here are some comments for you. Though, normally, if you are going to put a character up in Character Building, it is best to give us a chance to comment there, before you put the character over into the Character Bank. Gives us a chance to hash out things there and not clutter the actual character thread with a lot of back and forth. So, a couple of small fluff comments: First, you mention Emily wearing lightweight combat armor under the mecha suit. But nothing about the build suggests such combat armor. So, probably best to drop that reference. Also, while a 22 Int is very, very smart, it does not qualify as superhuman level intellect, you need to be hitting 26+ to fall in the superhuman level. Also, small nitpick, for Emily’s older sister, Jane, why would she “inherit†her younger sister’s intellect? If anything, Jane is very smart, like her younger sister. Stats are a bit low, but then the mecha makes up for that. But, there is some errors there. First, Int 22 costs 12 pp, not 10. You start with a 8 in Str, then add 8 from the mecha’s growth and sometimes 16 from enhanced str. That is +24 to 8, equaling only a 32, not 34. Same with Con, base 8 plus 4 from growth is 12, not 14. (although you seem to use a 12 con in calculating your toughness and fort save) You base grapple (outside the mecha) should be 5 (+6 BAB -1 Str). In the Mecha it is +7/+19 with a possible +0/+3 from super-strength. You combat block is a bit off for the attack bonuses. As I read things, in the Mecha, you range attack bonus is only +6, but you have +8 with the force cannon. Also in the Mecha, your Melee attack bonus is +8, not you unarmed (as you bought attack focus melee as part of the combat program). Also, you should list your defense as +8/+7 in Mecha. You defense/toughness is also slightly below your PL 10 power cap as a result. Your exotic saves are a bit low for a PL 10 (+6 Fort and +4 Reflex) You list 11 PP spent on feats, but I only count 9. For you mecha: The offensive array (blast and alt powers), you need to take a look at the normal formatting for powers (and arrays) and fix the listing. For example, with the flamethrower blast, I am not sure how you are calculating the cone range and pricing it. You need to list all extras and feats the power might have. Same for the flashbang dazzle. For the Communication (radio), it has a 5 mile RANGE, not radius, as you did not buy the Area extra for it. For the combat software, I count 11 feats there, not 10. For you leaping power, you have not calculated it correctly. Leaping 6 gives you x100 leaping distance. This is based on your Strength bonus. In the Mecha, you have a base Str of 16 (+3), up to 32 (+11) when you use the Enhanced Str. Thus, your base jumping distance is 13 for a running long jump (24 when using enhanced str). Full leaping increases this to 1,300 feet/2,400 feet enhanced. Note, if you leap this full leaping distance, it will take 2 rounds to reach the full distance. For the super-senses, not sure how you are calculating this, what is Blindsight? I am not seeing that as super-sense option in the UP. For the Growth, you should list out what all that is giving you (the bonus str, con, attack/def penalty, and other adjustments) Also, totaling all the powers in the Mecha (with the correct number for enhanced feats) I come up with 97 pp, so 2 pp over budget. You also need to list the total of all your traits at the bottom of the sheet (see other character sheets for an example)

Round Five 22 Coiled Lightning (bruise 2, 2 HP) 7 Big Thug (bruised) 6 Thugs (2 left) 3 Slice 3 Police

The large thug jerked slightly from the shock of the electric whip, seeming to freeze up a moment, before he shook it off and snarled at Coiled Lightning. But then, with a bit of effort, he turned away and moved over to the time capsule and began pulling on its lid, concrete broke off, as the lid started to open slightly. One of the other thugs with the crowbars dropped a duffle bag on the ground near the capsule and the turned and moved with the other thug towards the two police officers. The two thugs swung their crowbars like clubs, but the police officers were able to block them with their tonfa. The man with the energy pistol aimed the weapon at Coiled Lightning, firing a blast of energy at the hero. The blast hit squarely, causing Coiled Lightning to stagger backward a couple of steps, but otherwise remain on his feet and in the fight. At the same time, he spoke into a microphone he was wearing. "Bring the van around!" The two police officers took swings at the thugs in return, although only one managed to connect, but even that was a glancing blow which did not seem to hurt the thug much.

So removing the daze on the big guy, so you get the extra HP back. The two thugs with crowbars move up to attack the police officers, but the both miss. The guy with the energy pistol shoots at Coiled, hitting with a 22, so a DC 22 toughness save. The police fight the two guys with the crowbars, one hits, one misses, the thug hit makes his toughness save.

Happy Birthday Rav!

You can keep the roll. The big guy again botches his toughness save, picking up another bruise and is dazed again. (no knockback though).

Well, there is one issue Lazer, you were on the ground after the knockback from the big guy's hit. You can try to use Acrobatics to kip up (DC 20) or you have to use a Move Action to stand back up.

Okay, Gabe is bound and helpless inside the ice, but takes no damage. Fleur is up!

GM Sagittarius managed to somehow weather Gabriel's sonic rebuke and Comrade Frost's continued icy assault, but she did appear somewhat shaken. When Libra reappeared in the highway, the red headed archer gave a nod in agreement. "Could not agree more." She commented as she drew back another arrow and aimed it in the sky toward Gabriel and let fly. As the arrow streaked upward, it crackled with magic, turning into a bolt of ice and frost. When it struck the white clad hero, the ice burst around him, quickly encasing Gabriel in an icy prison. A bitter, chilling cold accompanied the ice, but he was able to resist its bite, even though he was otherwise trapped in the ice. Sagittarius then sprinted back over toward the highway, moving about a hundred feet up the road from Libra. Back up near the diner, Aries steadied himself after withstanding another attack from Velocity, clearly aware that his teammate had not fared as well. The tall villain regarded Fleur for a moment, before he gave the faintest of smiles. "Alright, you win this round." And with that he sped off down the street towards the used car lot, scoping the dazed Leo up off the ground and then speeding off toward the south and out of sight. As he went, he called out over the comm used by his team. "The projector has been evaced by one of the Leaguers. Time to cut our losses." He then glanced at the form draped over one shoulder. "This is your fault idiot! You were supposed to come and help the rest of us by the south barricade. Gemini was going to try to recover the projector."

Sagittarius will fire an arrow at Gabriel, hitting with a 32 a Crit! Gabiel has a DC 25 Reflex save to make against a snare and a DC 25 toughness save against the Ice carrier attack.

Velocity had a wide smile as Fleur sent the soldier away, apparently removing the object the villains had been looking for from their reach. But the smile was short lived as Leo launched himself at Fleur in rage, but luckily the green haired heroine was able to avoid the attack. "Okay, I think someone needs a time out." The yellow clad speedster stated, just as she became a blur of motion. *CRACK* Her fist shot out at Leo at supersonic speeds, slamming underneath the man’s chin with a loud WHAM. The savage Zodiac member was just being lifted up into the air by the force of the blow when Velocity was already over by Aries. *CRACK* Her fist shot out again, connection with another loud WHAM! But the faint glow around Aries flared with the impact, and he braced his feet slightly, but otherwise the golden helmed villain seemed unaffected by the attack. The force of Velocity's punch sent Leo flying five hundred feet down the side-road next to the diner, where he crashed through a chain link fence and slammed into a car in the used car lot where Fleur had seen the other soldier hiding.

Round Four 22 Coiled Lightning (bruise and dazed, 2 HP) 7 Big Thug (bruised) 6 Thugs (2 left) 3 Slice 3 Police So, your choice if you want to stay dazed or spend a Hero Point and shake it off.

The two officers started slightly as Coiled Lightning landed near them and the criminal, but that surprise quickly turned to looks of relief as he took down one of the two thugs they had initially been fighting. But the large thug shook off the electrical attack with a simple grunt. Then he pulled back one of his massive fists and slammed it into the hero. It felt like a sledgehammer slamming into Coiled Lightning's chest, sending him flying backward ten feet to land in the middle of the sidewalk where not moments before there had been a large crowd which he had been part of. Spots flashed before his eyes, but he managed to maintain consciousness. As he pushed himself up some, he caught sight of Scott Lewis, crouched down behind a parked car, watching the scene at the demolition sight with a combination of fear and excitement. The thug who had been dazed by one of the officer's tonfa stood back up, shooting his tazer at one of the officers once more, but missing again. The two thugs were still struggling with the door to the capsule, not seeming to make much headway. "Damn it! We can't budge it!" One of them shouted. The man with the blaster let out a small laugh. "Someone? You mean someone like you? Maybe you should just stay down." He aimed his weapon at one of the two officers still on their feet and fired. Once again he hit the officer, but this time the man was already rolling aside, the blast just grazing him and causing him to stagger slightly, but otherwise remain on his feet. "Go help with that lid." He then shouted out to the large thug, seeming a bit annoyed that the police officer remained on his feet. Then the two police officers started into action, emboldened by Colied Lightning's appearance. One of them stepped up and slammed his tonfa into the stomach of the thug with the tazer, landing a solid hit that doubled the man over and sent him sprawling onto the ground unconscious. Then the other swung his tonfa at the large thug, catching the bruiser in the back of the head. The blow was solid, causing the big man to stagger forward in pain and drop down to one knee, clearly dazed.

The thug that had been dazed gets up and shoots his tazer at one of the cops again, but misses again with a 11 The man with the blaster shoots another cop, who actually makes his toughness save! The two cops team up on the tazer armed thug, both hitting, one with a critical hit! The thug completely fails his first toughness save, so it out, so I will say the second cop hit the big guy, who also rolls poorly, so is bruised and dazed as well! I will shake off the big guy's daze, so a hero point to you!

ROUND FOUR 55 Velocity (unharmed, 5 HP) 30 Sagittarius (bruised) 30 Aries (bruised) 26 Fleur de Joie (unharmed, 1 HP) 25 Leo (unharmed) 18 Gabriel (unharmed, 2 HP) 16 Aquarius (bruised, dazed) 14 Comrade Frost (unharmed, 1 HP) 10 Libra (bruised) 8 Gaian Knight (unharmed, 4 HP) 7 Tiamat (unharmed) Velocity will use Rapid Attack on Leo and Aries, full Power Attack (-5/+5), she hits both with a 29. Leo gets a 25 on his toughness save, so is bruised and dazed, and knocked back 500 feet. Aries makes his toughness save with a 31.

The big thug is going to take a swing at Coiled, and he connects with a 19, so that is a DC 23 toughness save.

That does startle Aquarius, and so he has a difficult toughness save, he gets a 27 so bruised and dazed.

GM Libra was back up on her feet quickly after diving away from Tiamat's massive form. The white haired woman looked up at the powerful dragon for a moment, before raising her hands once more and sending another magnetic blast at the dragon. But this one deflected off the scales on Tiamat's back, just enough that it blasted apart a section of the roof of the house Libra had previously been on. The golden costumed villainess frowned slightly as she called out above her. "I believe it may be time to try to regroup!" And with that she vanished in a flash of light, reappearing over on the rural highway where the barricade had once stood.

That hits, but he makes his toughness save.

Yep, that first guy goes down. You are close enough to attack the big guy with Takedown attack, or the other thug with a taser, who just recovered from being dazed. Also, just to clarify, there are two police officers in the melee. (the only two still up)

Giang was a bit surprised at the sight of the massive spiderlike vehicle walking along the ocean floor. While it was certainly unusual, the presence of the vehicle alone was not enough reason to attack it, as it could contain passengers that had no ill will. But they certainly needed to investigate. She gave a small nod as Myrmidon indicated he would move in for a closer look. The Asian teen stopped a short distance off, slowing swimming along after so as to not fall behind the vehicle as it continued on its path. Although there was no immediate threat, she activated her watery forecfield, as that could change very quickly.

Round Three 22 Coiled Lightning (unharmed, 1 HP) 7 Big Thug 6 Thugs (1 bruised and dazed) 3 Slice 3 Police

The hulking thug glanced over to see two of his companions struggling with two of the police officers who had drawn their tonfa, so he moved over towards one of the officers, swinging a large fist at the man. The officer luckily saw the attack coming, and managed to duck down underneath it. The thug with the taser that was still on his feet tried to use the weapon as a club and hit the other police officer, but the officer easily blocked the clumsy attack with his tonfa. The other two thugs jammed their crowbars into the lid of the time capsule and began trying to pry it off. The costumed criminal with the strange energy weapon moved forward till he was near the time capsule, as he casually aimed his weapon at the police officer with the draw pistol. There was another blast of energy, which struck the officer squarely, knocking him to the ground unconscious. The two officer still on their feet regarded the large thug that had moved over to engage them. Without a word, the pair both attacked with their tonfa, landing strikes on the large man. But the man took them with seeming easy, barely registering that he had been hit.

It would take a full move action to get there by foot, though you can easily swing over as a move action (say swinging up to the roof of the restaurant and then using a light pole to swing over) The big thug moves over toward one of the cops fighting the taser thugs and swings at him, but misses. The thug with the taser that is up tries to hit a cop with it, but misses as well. The other two thugs are trying to open the capsule with their crowbars. The supercriminal shoots at the cop that just drew his pistol, auto hitting by taking ten, the cop misses his toughness save and is out. The two tonfa armed cops attack the big thug, hitting with a 17 and 17. The big thug makes both toughness saves.
