Uo to you! At this stage they are defeated!

Thats a miss! (Uncanny Dodge plus Defence +14). I am not entirely sure how you could sneak on him, he is facing the door, its a bright lit room....

Radiation It had to be radioactive, didn't it? Warning. Superior Soviet Radioactive Materials are [redacted] and only to be used by [redacted]. Handle with care and under no circumstances [redacted], particularly when [redacted] becomes [redacted] Slave was being as helpful as an underwater candle. Clearly the payload had come with a lot of sensitive information that Slave automatically censored out. He could hack into the files on the materials, but sure wasn't going to share them. She left the safe house before she started sprounting tentacles. She probably had half a dozen cancers flowering in her body already. There was no question about it. She needed help. Ideas, experience...and if necessary, muscle. She pulled up her taxi outside the Weapons Disposal Event, and got out of the car. Best to go in unarmed... She left her silenced pistol in the glove compartment. A top range silenced pistol. Handy, but also suspicious. Putting a comb through her hair and wearing the best clothes she could fin, namely a slinky but cheap evening dress, she slinked into the meeting. "Nuclear disopsal? I am all ears! The world is in a new ear of peace!" she said to those that could hear.

I like this PC! "A Human amongst Gods: Jonathan is merely a man. He has no special powers or abilities outside of his ingenuity and crossbow." An interesting fact or background, but I can't see how that could be a complication? Crunch: Could you annotate toughness as (+1 CON, +6 Defensive Roll), The Crossbow seems odd: a 15 PP base power for the array, and yet all the powers are 10PP or over? Suggestions: Make the base Blast Penetrating (Uranium shell or something), Make make the Dazzle Rank 5 (and you could probably doing some stuff with the rest), or even reduce the Device to a Rank 3 Device (for 9 PP) .Smoke bolts are probably best conisdered as independent extra (+0). Otherwise, you could eliminate the smoke whenever you want, and it will actually go whenever you use another power in the array (or get stunned)? Or even make it continous. Otherwise all looks good!

Ok so the Crowd are getting very restless. Make an untrained Knowledge (Behavioural Sciences Roll) to estimate they are going to riot/storm the stage [DC 10] (Which they will!) Wayward / BR: As a microphone, she has all senses and can speak. Her psychic powers (at least, the non physical ones) are in full operation, and she can of course stunt off those (such as Boosting someone who touches her), as you see fit!
-
GM As Wayward passed from her body into the microphone, she had the ethereal sense of something crossing the other way. At last! Freedom! I live again!!!! Waywards body stop, frozen for an instant. "Freedom! At last! A woman's body..pfah! Disguisting...but better than nothing...." she said, in an odd voice. It seemed to have a French Accent. Waywards body dropped Marianne with an electric clang. Her alien words had been amplified out to the whole audience, who stood in total confusion. Was this part of the act? Some rock and roll stunt? it all seemed bizzarre. A few wolf whistles, a few cheers. But mainly just confusion and anticipation. "...." Waywards body opened her mouth, but nothing came out. "....Lets Rock to the Clock...?" she mumbled weakly. A line that Aw3s0me used (with complete lack of coolness) in the support act. Waywards body sort of pumped her fist in the air, and started to sidle out to the side entrance...
-
Right then! Wayward - Unharmed - 6 HP 3 HP base. +1 For complication Necromme. +1 for auto failing mindswap. +1 for being a sucker for Amanda. I dont think being famous is a complication - in fact, as per upcoming post, it is probably an advantage!

Sunset wobbled slightly, then slumped to her knees. The whole cosmos seemed to be stormy for a moment, like a grand scale sea sickness. Going back never felt quite like that. Something truly magnificent, or truly awful, was happening here. "Some guy in a Snow Suit...made a grab...." she said, pointing at the wall. She shook her head. "I don't think....I don't think it was human. Can't be sure, but it moved...fast, and strong...but it was too wrapped up in furs and goggles for me to see...." She looked at MacGregor more directly then. "One of your scientists...the guy who flagged us down....he just told the thief to leave...and he did! What's going on?" she said, through a muzzy brain. Even the Radical was silent, spinning in his own world in what he would no doubt term a seriously freaky trip.

Extra Effort for Rene to Stunt off his Magic Array. Basically the same teleport power, but this time the medium is not the painting, but it is a teleport to the owner of the painting.
-
Rene sensed a trap in the demons words. Or perhaps the shadow of a trap. "Now tell me, demon. Why do you goad me to fight? Either you are confident of your success, which may be deemed unwise, or your are scared of my inaction?" he asked. The problem, he thought, was that merely fighting the demon may empower it. All was never as it seemed.... What he needed was to wake Martha up. "Or perhaps, I should just...." He woke up. Scanning the room, he saw the picture Martha had made. All pictures were doorways to Rene. A portal. He could walk into a picture and be there. Transported to the location that had been captured in the print. He had never tried this before. It was difficult, even dangerous. But perhaps, if the picture had captured enough essence of the painter. He could use the picture to walk to the painter...not the painting. With a grunt, he got up, and with will powering his speed, with his mind cascading through the wall that separated reality from imagination, he dived into the painting...

So I suggest a few wrap up posts in terms of how you want to narrate patching the hole up / tugging the ship to safety? You have full narrative license. Then comments about if you want a follow up thread, and how you want it!
-
I am going to presume that a few hours have passed, and the Staggere, Bruised, Fatigued conditions have gone. Round 1: 29 - Foreshadow (hidden) 2 HP 19 - Doctor Zero 8 - Synapse. Foreshadow is up!
-
Stealth roll from fs too? With +5 bonus?
-
Ok, so its perform an plot time! BR could you make a perform (stringed) roll for your guitar solo, taking 10 is fine if you wish! However, can you guess what her microphone is? Can you? Can you? That is right, it is the morphed Count Necromme! So for plot purposes, when she reaches to touch it (and you may by luck sing a bit without touching it...if so, a Perform Singing roll). And, as discussed, when you do, it is an automatic fail will save, for a mind swap. At this point, you gain 2 HP (one for the misfortune to be a Necromme descendant, one for failing the save for PLOT purposes!) Feel free to narrate the above, and at your liesurre, touch the microphone , hear a cackling laugh, and end up as the microphone! As the microphone your senses (spooky magic) will still be active, as will your speech!

GM Gavin turned purple with embaressment at the two ladies intimacy. "Groupiess....I'll never get used to the backstage!" he mumbled under his breath. Amanda was swooning, quite literrally closing her eyes in shock and ecstasy at merely being in the same room as her icon. *Ahem* Came the loud cough from Gavin. At this point, both of them could feel the chant for Valerie... One swoon and smooch later.... "VAL-ER-RIE....VAL-ER-RIE....VAL-ER-RIE..." As she walked on, she caught Aw3s0m3, red faced and humiliated, leaving the stage. Their lead singer was shaking his heads in in his hands. "It wasn't meant to happen like this! This was gonna be our big break! He told me so!" When Valerie came on stage, with the rest of her band, the crowd went ballistic! And then , Valerie took hold of her famous guitar....

"I am not so sure" smiled Rene back. Whatever this thing was, it was powerful. In the Dreamscape, only few could match his power. But there was, as somone said, always a bigger fish. But the dreamscape was strange, and small was sometimes big, and big was sometimes small. "I am not a hero, you see. Just a helpless old man who has seen much" he said to the Demon, without moving. "So now tell me again why I should do anything? For I my ears are full of wax, and my head is full of doubt. I am sure ze right thing to do is simple. But then again, nothing is simply right, Oui?" He turned slowly to Martha, running away. "Existential angst, as my freind Satre used to say. If Gods are to come, what purpose life of man? That is ze question she must ask herself, and that she must answer. Without you" he said to the demon. "And without me" "So why would a spirit of ze dreams be so eager to feed on despair, hmmm? are you really that weak?" he asked, directly and with level eyes, to the demon. "I fancy you are tenderizing ze meat with the bleakest pictures!"

It would indeed, but them be options!

GM "Oh" "My" "God!" Amanda didn't know whether to faint or jump into Valeries arms and kiss her. Or do both. She ended up standing there in stunned silence, her gathered information on Valerie dropping out of her hands again! "You saw me! you saw me!" she said, enraptured. At that moment, a big burly fat man with a pony tail and a large suit knocked and entered. He was Gavin Dibbons, stage manager. "Ms. Vale...Ms. Vale we need you on now! The Support Band have been crucified out there! Its going to be a riot!" he blubted, before seeing Amanda. "Oh...ah....I see... begging you pardon miss...and er...miss" he said bowing to them both. "I dind't know you had a group...errr...company back here. Sorry to disturb you in ....err...whatever you were doing..." he gulped, averting his eyes to study his clip board furiously (even though there was nothing on it). "Still, we need you now before they wreck the Opera!"

1d20+12=19 Hmmm, just failed 1 Initiative Time please! Blonsky is just hiding. The old man is just old manning...(har har) Zero is a dangerous antagonist though. 1d20+12=19 is his initiative. Need rolls from Synapse and Foreshadow!
-
GM The door was a darn sight better than the feeble decaying security of the exterior, but it was not exactly top end either, and no match for Synapse. Opening the door quietly, alert to the smallest creeks, the room eased into view. Light and bright, and unlike the rest of the building, an oasis of technology in the desert around them. Doctor Zero was there, in full spandex, a side arm by his side. He stood in a relaxed, easy posture, arms folded, his body poised and powerful. So was Blonsky - who, whilst in shape, looked like a wasted hobo besides the Doctor. In the centre of the room was...something...something cold. A medical bay, it looked like, with an ancient man, white haired and venerable, lying in it. He looked half dead, and his voice was faint. "He....is lying....my friend....I can sense it...." croaked the old main, his voice faint and dry. With the barest squeak of hinges, as the door opened, Doctor Zero spun round, gun in hand. "<And now we have your accomplices!>" he said, in Russian and with relish. "N...No...no....I swear it! I did everyting he asked!" blubbered Blonsky, pointing at the Doctor. "All for glorious Russia!" he added.
-
That works, which means you see them. But do they see you? Its a bit wobbly, but the best way of resolving this, I think is a stealth roll from Synapse....can you oblige THev? I will give a +5 situational bonus due to your superior disable device, darkness, and etc etc.
-
By default any blast / damage power (in or out of a device) can be lethal or non lethal when you use it,players choice. For an archer a straightforward blast power works great (although you could have a variety of other effects, linked with it or seperate, such as tranquilizer rounds) You dont need to buy anything else. You could fluff this as saying you have rubber coated arrowheads, or even comedy boxing glove arrows, whatevere you need. You dont need to but them as separate powers.

GM "My insurance better well damn cover this. They always have some sub clause about Super Powered Damage...." muttered Dead Shot. He leaned over the pool table, upended, he had used for cover and sent off two shotgun blasts into the smoke. To at least let the assassins know they were alive. The King of Suits stumbled, or burst, through the Fire Escape, to see a dark and wet Freedom City alley, complete with dumpster, trash, and high walls on either side. A drunk hobo snored against a wall, slumped on his ass. This was not the most tactically safe position...more like a kill zone...but it would be appetitising bait...

Yes and No. Utility Belts are essentially arrays built as equipment. I know its confusing, but arrays are the core awesome of M&M. So the first power of a utility belt, and the most expensive one, has the full EP costs. The other powers are essentially an array of this, for 1 EP each. If you refer to core book, p 137, sample utility bely, you will see a variety of powers (or equipments) at 1 EP, but Grenades the most expensive power, at 15 EP. Essentially all non-grenade items are alternative powers of that.
