OK, anyone with conflicting data should feel free to contradict me. But here goes. *puts on Ref hat*

Thanks to the magic of Google, I have found that most modern billboards are made out of PVC, and are surprisingly light. The average 15ft wide billboard weighs about 75lb. This being a large billboard, the standard dimensions are probably 14ftx48ft. So it probably weighs about 3-4 times that much. And the steel support mechanism surrounding it probably weighs more than the board itself. And even though it's much lighter than we'd expect, it's still big and awkward.

I'm gonna go ahead and rule that the billboard constitutes a Medium load for Twilight Gryphon.

That means that, while she's holding it, her maximum Dodge bonus is +3, her maximum movement speed is dropped to 2/3 normal, and she suffers a -3 penalty to "all actions." I'm gonna further rule that this includes Reflex saves (but not any other type of save).

Since large objects falling down on you constitute an area attack anyway, we can just say that TG willingly failed her Reflex save to avoid it. And since she's strong enough to lift it, we're gonna handwave away any potential damage it might have caused her. We'll just say it didn't fall far or fast enough to hurt her.

And yes, TG certainly gets a Hero Point for, well...acting heroically.

Also, Captain Knieval gets a Villain Point, for some truly awesome stunts with engaging descriptions that suck the reader in, and stuff. :D

Invisible castle hates me, that last attack should be a 12 and not a 10 (which also misses) I was going to accurate attack then changed my mind and forgot to change the numbers...

Posted

okay thats cool, as long as it misses :P

stupid flyby attack >_<

now i have to come up with some other idea :P

that last part is a readied action to take a swing at you if you come close enough when swooping in on me.

I know I didn't state a specific distance, but she should be out of melee range since A)

Not able to get a hold she flies straight up away from him.
and B) he should be falling?

Sorry for the lack of posting, it's been a really difficult week and my girlfriend hasn't been feeling well (been taking care of her) I'll try to get another post before the weekend.

Okay so let me explain what she just did.

As a Free Action I'm using Extra Effort to power stunt the Equipment Feat off her Morph Watch. The Watch Effectively gives her Morph 1 (one other form)

The Equipment turns it to

Extra Attack (+0)

Extra No Save (+2)

Morph Rank 1

A "device" that will give the Captain a mutant tail. She would have been shown the basic workings of the Morph watch, since it is such a low powered item and has a specific function so I don't think this is too far of a stretch...

I'm down with that. But a 21 is just barely going to miss The Captain's defense of 22. I think that I will write that it hits the car that I am standing on, and the car is what grows a tail. If this won't work, i can always edit...

Posted

I'm not so sure that should've worked anyway. A "Morph Watch" isn't something you can get via Equipment, that's something that'd be a Device.

And if it had worked, Knievel still would've gotten a Notice check to see through it (since Morph just gives a bonus to Disguise).

Posted

It wasn't meant to have any permanent affect on him, mostly to take advantage of his fear / hatred of mutants and throw him completely off guard, making him think he just became what he feared / hated...

Posted

hey you know whatever. i thought it was a neat idea, so we ran with it. didn't work anyway so the point is moot. I used my last action to move to a mailbox and pick it up. (standard and move) so now its your action.

Posted

The Captain has been updated. specifically, +1 point in speed and a bunch of edits to the adrenaline cannon. I am also now PL11, although I do not meet most of my caps.

is it okay if i use these updates?

Posted

I think the board rules state that you can't update the character in mid thread, also I don't think it would be particularly fair to gain an advantage like that mid combat.

Accurate attack for three, charge and I reread improved grab and there is a free unarmed attack attached to that. It's too bad her talons don't count as her unarmed attack
