N/A Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 The Scarab gets 30, if her roving eyes and ears happen to be inside the courtroom when whatever happens, happens.
Dr Archeville Posted July 1, 2009 Author Posted July 1, 2009 Scarab got 30 Vestige got 23 Knievel got 20 Malice has 14 Dark Star has 13 Ace Danger got 8 This works rather well. :twisted: There were two DCs, 10 and 20. Everyone except Ace got the first. Knievel, Vestige and Scarab (even with a penalty for seeing through a TV which didn't give as good a view as if she'd been present) hit the second The event happens when Scarab first looks at the courtroom on the tv, before she activates her Precognition. Knievel, Vestige and Scarab may attempt Knowledge/Life Science or Medicine rolls.
quotemyname Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 Knowledge (Life Sciences) [untrained] (1d20+1=20) WOOT! Can I make a biggotted, highly racist vs. mutants reaction to this even If I do not know what it is? To represent Captain Knievel just being fed up and possibly jumping the gun a little?
Dr Archeville Posted July 1, 2009 Author Posted July 1, 2009 Actually, Knievel knows exactly what it is: a nasty flare up of psoriasis. Nothing more. If Knievel'd failed, he may've assumed the courier is a Mutant freak. (Also, untrained Knowledge checks can be attempted if the DC is 15 or lower, not 10 or lower.)
quotemyname Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 Man, now Captain Knievel is "seeing things" too. He MUST be crazy ;)
Dr Archeville Posted July 2, 2009 Author Posted July 2, 2009 Vestige & Scarab both also realize the courier just has psoriasis.
Dr Archeville Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 In case y'all hadn't heard, Quote's laid up in the hospital for a bit, so he won't be posting for a few days (at least).
quotemyname Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 But now I have returned! Let justice wait for no man!
angrydurf Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 I don't think scarab had a way to recognize Ace through the Illusion but if he did I'll edit :)
N/A Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 I don't think scarab had a way to recognize Ace through the Illusion but if he did I'll edit Since it's a Phantasm, she'd get a Will Save to see through it, if she had any cause to think it wasn't real. Near as I can tell, she didn't.
Dr Archeville Posted July 11, 2009 Author Posted July 11, 2009 30 minute recess. Y'all doin' anything?
N/A Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 Geez3r: That kind of Gather Info roll will tell you pretty much everything about her that's conceivably public knowledge: Elena Guerrero was the daughter of poor Mexican immigrants who attended college and law school at Freedom City University. Immediately after passing the bar exam, she went back to her small hometown to try a class-action lawsuit for them against a Grant Conglomerates subsidiary that was (allegedly) dumping toxic waste and giving everyone cancer (including her parents). A lawsuit which she (of course) lost. After that, she drops off the radar for a while. Rumor has it she won a relatively small state lottery and used the money to start playing the stock market, which she turned out to be very good at. Fast-forward a few years later, and she quietly shows up in Freedom City again. Word on the street (Wall Street, that is!) is that she's one of the largest individual shareholders of the Rhodes Foundation. She seems to divide her time between giving money to every charity organization that puts its hand out, and working as an occasional "consultant" for a wide variety of different law firms. She works regularly with famed underdogs Nelson & Bannerly, likely for free. Last year, she consulted on another lawsuit they filed against a Grant company, and this time they won. She mostly seems to advise lawyers on jury selection and witness cross-examination, like she's been doing at this trial so far. This is the first time she's worked with the F.C. D.A.'s office. All she said was that she was "going to follow up on a lead," so no one has any idea where she's gone off to.
N/A Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 30 minute recess. Y'all doin' anything? In light of your recent PM, yes, I am.
Dr Archeville Posted July 11, 2009 Author Posted July 11, 2009 One disguise check. And as was discussed in Chat, Ronin is within a mile of the courthouse, so he is seen by Scarab.
N/A Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 At the moment, The Scarab's array is configured to the slot with Concealment and a small amount of Telekinesis and Telepathy. Her Flight and Force Field powers are active and her costume is on.
Warmonger Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 So wait is she confronting Ronin or just observing?
quotemyname Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 Yea that was my next question. I missed the chat convo so I am obviously lost. Can someone post it? or summarize it possibly?
Dr Archeville Posted July 11, 2009 Author Posted July 11, 2009 Shaen asked if the heroes were all Scarab saw with her ESP. I asked Warmonger to make a Disguise check for Ronin, then realized I wasn't sure if Ronin & his garbage truck were even in Scarab's ESP radius. After some chat, we determined that he was. Scarab's Notice check is > Ronin's Disguise check, so she sensed something was off about the driver of the garbage truck. So Scarab's gone to intercept.
quotemyname Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 Since captain knievel is in / about to be in lockdown can I: A] make another master plan check as the situation has changed or B] attempt to escape if a decent enough distraction occurs? As in... Can I punch out the guards as they are putting me into the holding cell? etc.?
