Supercape

So feel free to activate Migraine complication - between the pain and the medication could be anything from incapacitated to missing basic concentration / perception checks.

Echohead "Oh dear..." the electric fence crackled in the air, and inside Umberto's skull. There it was; that blurred line in his eyeball, that vague amorphous shape that was not quite in focus. A zig zag line. Maybe it was the fence, maybe it was the stress. Maybe he was tired, or had too much coffee on the plane. Whatever it was, a migraine was coming on. A zinger. He wasn't going to admit it though. He had to look like a cool super-spy. So instead he reached into his Impervium weave jacket and pulled out his medication. He looked casually at Predator and took two blue pills. "Just to ah... umm... stay alert... or something..." he spluttered, before trying to change the subject. "Can you get us through with some super technology or something? That electric field should be shut down!" Before it makes my head explode...

Id say Science base?

Echohead "Sure," said Echohead. "I mean, its just a car, right? Not like its a plane." In better circumstances, there would have been a stunt driver next to them, or maybe some superhero like Rev, whose brain he could copy. But they were alone. It felt odd. Echohead lived in the city, and was used the packed brains of an urban environment. Brains that flowed and frothed like a sea, so familiar he barely felt the undulations. But now, alone, he was acutely aware of the difference. It gave him a mental shiver. But a car was just a car. As long as they didn't have to do any stunt driving, he could manage. Pressing his high tech sunglasses to his nose, he stepped into the car, and crunched the gears. "Onwards! To victory!" he spluttered, and drove off...

Diamondlight And in a puddle of muddle and mud. There go my shoes, and my pants. But August didn't have time to worry about spoilt suits and footwear. First, he had to orientate himself. The portal had was horrific, but teleportation, he was used to. In a zip of light, he was back in the fight. He would have liked to have closed his eyes, but he didn't need his eyes to see, not anymore. His entire being was one giant eyeball, metaphorically speaking. He couldn't shut down his awareness. "How illuminating..." he said, as he let forth a giant flash of light that made the park shine like a sun...

Ok so mouth full of water, soggy suit And Diamondlight will teleport out of there! And as a standard action, use his light array: Dazzle thats a Dazzle (visual) 11 effect in a 1000' raduis burst effect. lets light up the park!

GM And so... ...Below the deck... Blowfish had taken Beanpole for medical treatment, deep in conversation with the Gas Man, discussing how to Hhhfttt.. Make da deal of da century! The Lost and Forgotten was empty. The thugs, the sailors, the captain - all hard scarpered, not wishing to contend with explosives and guns. No doubt the police would be there soon. The clock was ticking. The ship was old. Seaworthy, but old. Chipped paint, broken lights, the smell of oil and brine. But it was afloat. Down some stairs, through some corridors, and then into the cargo hold. It was dark here - not pitch black, but poor lighting meant it was dim. Not a problem for some super-senses! It smelled of engines, cobwebs, and something rotten. Maybe some banana's - for that was what the cargo crates said. Maybe it was banana's. Maybe it was something more. It was dark, it was silent, it was slightly chilly. Dust crawled up nostrils. Chimera and Nightscale were alone, with just some ominous looking sealed steel crates for company. Until the police - or someone else - arrived.

Scene cut to the cargo hold in the ships bowels?

Roger!

GM "Machete Max? Beats me. Guys as slippery as an eel coated in oil with a PhD in sliperriness," said the Gas Man, dusting himself off after the flight. He looked like a robust man, but being carried in dragon claws had turned him a ghastly shade of green. He spoke whilst simultaneously trying to keep his stomach bolted down to his diaphragm. "And if you don't mind, I'll leave you two to find out what Max is smuggling." He took on a firmer, serious look. "I seen some dark crap in my time," he confessed. "But Machete Max? He gives me the creeps. Like, I heard a rumour he resurrected the dead only a few months ago. Had an army of zombies crawling over Freedom City graveyard. He paid me well enough, but truth is something about this job sent a chill down my spine. And my spine don't often get chilled." He was interrupted by Blowfish, who came huffing and puffing down the tier in a jog. Blowfish could clearly handle a tommy gun, and looked like he had thrown a few knuckledusting punches in his life. But he wasn't the most fit mobster in Freedom City. "Hey! Hey! Whats happening?" he yelled. "Dragons? Machete Max hiring dragons now? I can pay! I can pay better!!!" The Gas Man raised an eyebrow. "Hmmm.... potential customer! Can you put in a good word?" he asked Luke and Chimera.

Echohead The Island was a sorry state, and made Echohead sorry. The Ash crawled up his nose and into his throat, an ash he could not say was real, or just his fertile imagination drying up his membranes with adrenaline. It didn't really matter whether it was realed or imagined. It still made him cough. "Volcano, straight ahead!" he said, gloomily. "Wheels. We need wheels, right?" he asked Predator, glancing at a battered VW Beetle. It looked resilient, and it looked cool. Beetles were cool. "Can you hot wire it?" he asked Predator. As far as Echohead could see, Predator was pretty handy with anything technological. Hotwiring an old car would presumably be a piece of cake.

in case we need initiative rolls: 8

GM "Then make the call, I care not," hissed Tazel. "You dissapoint me. Burning this vile sorcerer would befit the world well, would it not? If not, then he will cause havoc in the future. Maybe on this world, maybe another. I know his type! they wish to chain the infernal powers!" "But Vengeance pays second fiddle to liberty, and it is liberty that I want! Break the Cantos devil stick! I can feel it, scratching at my throat, still caging me. Ah! Liberty! that is all I wish. And what better place to find it than Freedom City!" "Break it! Set me free. You think me dangerous? Perhaps I am, but not to you. I spit on the Infernal forge from whence I came. I have no desire to return to slavery. It is freedom that I crave! So delicious, so out of reach!"

GM Blowfished pressed to idignant hands to an fleshy chest. "Explosives?" He raised an eyebrow. "I just sent some of my men in to stop a zombie apocalypse. I didn't tell em da details. But honestly, do you blame them? If there was a horde of zombies in the cargo, would you object to an explosive? Set the lot of em of fire, sink the ship? I don't take any pleasure in killing. Normally. Sometimes. But you can't kill what alreadys da dead, can ya?" He crushed one cigarette underfoot and promptly whipped out another, lighting it with puffs that blew out his cheeks like balloons. "And dont you worry about Beanpole. I got...hffft...all expenses paid medical cover. Cant go lettin good men die, can I? Bad for...hffft... morale!" He took a particularly theatrical puff of his cigar and then took it from his mouth, wagging it at Chimera. "But all dis yappin... the question is, what was Machete Max bringing to da goold old yu ess of ay?"

GM The Gas Man chewed his lip at the offer of a claw, but ultimately decided to accept the ride. "Hey, something to tell my grandchildren right? I went on a dragon ride! Once in a lifetime opportunity. Not that I have kids. Not that I want kids. But its still a fun story. As long as you don't rip me in half." "My lips are sealed with the finest dollar Machete Max can afford. That said, screw him, he didn't tell me about no dragons. He's got something shifty in the bottom of this ship." He frowned, chewing the problem. "Tell the truth I don't know whats in the ship. I don't get paid to ask questions. Gotta say, I am pretty curious. Machete Max is one spooky guy. All I know is there a lot of wooden crates that smell like old dust..."

Diamondlight In a flash, August brought out a flash of light. The illusions dropped, and he focussed the energy into a gleaming sabre of white light springing from his hand. Something was crunching against him. He didn't know what, but he felt it, like a vice squeezing his eyeballs. And he would bet his last cent the woman was behind it. Her gaze was like a drill. Entering his chest. Entering his heart. Entering his brain. "Enough!" he said, gritting his teeth and taking a forced step forward. What was it? Psychic? Magic? Horrors from another dimension? Whatever it was, it felt alien. And malign. Or was that just his assumption? "Drop it, lady, whatever it is..." he said, trying to maintain his gaze on her. It wasn't his best line, but it would have to do. It was all he could say through clenched teeth.

Echohead "Hmmm, what? Nothing. I was just resting my eyes..." Echohead had dropped off a moment. Maybe it was the flight. Maybe he was tired. But my, the dream was strange. He was a lone fly, buzzing along, envious of the beautiful butterflies. A smiling friend offered to bind him in a cocoon so he can transform just like the beautiful ones. The binding wrapped tight. Too tight. Too late!... the smiling friend was a spider. He looked in the mirror and saw not himself, but the face of Cardenas himself! Now, it was a disturbing dream. Was it just a dream? Echohead wasn't sure. He copied peoples brains, for God's sake! Residual stuff could cling for days. Was it just that? Was it something else? Was he going mad? He couldn't show the others he was going mad. That would be uncool. "Ah yes, Mr Cardenas..." he mumbled, shaking his eyes free of sleep. The dream! So vivid! He was Cardenas! "Geothermal energy. Right. Yes. Absolutely. I wasn't asleep. Paying full attention. Yes. Geothermal energy. Hot stuff. Ground." The jigsaw pieces of Predators research started falling into place. Predator was so smart, so cool, and so not mad... Echohead needed to keep up! "Brades then. Sounds like a better bet? Absolutely. Spot on! And yes, we have a hired vehicle ready. Not sure how super the car is. But if it gets us around, fine by me. May not have a champagne on ice though, haha, haha...." He coughed.

28 Yippee!

GM "Relax, Gandalf," said the Gasman, holding his hands up to Luke. "Wait, not Gandalf... whats that film, the one for the nerds, with all the wizards and stuff. Wait! Smaugolas, that was the name, wasn't it? Relax, Smaugolas! I got paid to keep this ship afloat, not fight dragons! Ain't no money worth getting roasted alive. I know when I'm outgunned..." He put his assault rifle to the floor and kept his hands up, neglecting to dispense with his knife, sidearm, or multitude of grenades. "Seems to me this ship is still afloat. No explosives going off. All thanks to the heroic heroes of Freedom City. Thanks, capes! Although I still aim to get paid!" Meanwhile... Blowfish waved to Chimera as she circled about his car. "Hey, what's happening! Can't see with all that pink smoke! Did you find what Max was transporting? I think we better sink this boat, only way to be sure!"
