quotemyname Posted September 3, 2009 Author Posted September 3, 2009 Yes that's correct. Ouch a bad save! are you going to Hero Point away the stunning or anything? or would you like make an IC post that say, "ouch"? Or should I just take another turn?
Elfy Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 stinger only had the one hero point and she already used it, however the stun will go away at the beginning of breakdown's turn before he can act on it. so her dodge and defensive roll will be in effect if he attacks. she's still staggered though and limited to only one action. she's clearly outmatched. if she had a chance to defeat him before, it's highly unlikely she's does now. he seems highly likely to be victorious. what do you suggest we do to help her elude capture? should it be one of these things were there's no proof (his word against her word and no other witnesses/proof) she was trying to steal a car, so the police can't arrest her? or should another (more powerful?) villain (the head mistress of the shadow academy, for instance) intervene to rescue her? should something else happen (an automotive accident nearby?) distract him (someone in danger and needing saved is more important than taking a petty criminal to the police)?
quotemyname Posted September 5, 2009 Author Posted September 5, 2009 Breakdown's not one to beat a dead horse, that's for sure. You don't seem to want to be caught, which is fine as well. You're ideas are all sound ones. If you can get a hold of sand and run the head mistress that would probably be the most interesting. It might even serve to put the shadow academy on the map as far as claremont PCs are concerned. That could open up some interesting possibilities. :)
Elfy Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 yeah, that might be the way to go. i was wondering what circumstances would bring her into the shadow academy anyway.
quotemyname Posted September 7, 2009 Author Posted September 7, 2009 Quick! Get him in here! We can RP till then.
quotemyname Posted September 7, 2009 Author Posted September 7, 2009 Discussed stuff with sand in chat. Looks like you're going to get some back up. Might be worth a Hero Point for me, though :)

(16:11:57) Sandman_XI: to get the drop on claremont (16:12:11) Sandman_XI: nah (16:12:21) quotemyname: I'm okay with that.

(16:12:29) quotemyname: lol (16:12:40) Sandman_XI: this is Where Mervyl comes in (16:12:41) Sandman_XI: go!
quotemyname Posted September 7, 2009 Author Posted September 7, 2009 notice dc 20 (1d20+6=9) I have no eyes
Elfy Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 the date of this thread is august 23rd. didn't the shadow academy start up in early september?
quotemyname Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 We talked about this. This is supposed to be how you guys meet.
Elfy Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 oh, i see. so emperor and stinger first meet here. why does he help her if he doesn't know her? is it because he saw her commiting the crime (attempting to break into the car and steal) and didn't like breakdown stopping her? how does this lead stinger into the shadow academy? does sometime after this head mistress meet up with stinger and bring her into the academy somehow? it makes sense to me that the headmistress would personal bring stinger into the academy (just like professor x personally sought out his students). i'd like to know how it all fits together, but otherwise it sounds good to me.
Elfy Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 okie - worked out the whys and hows with the emperor's player. the emperor is scouting stinger out on behalf of the head mistress. i'm still not quite sure how she ends up at the academy yet though.
quotemyname Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 Take 10 on Intimidate. So the DC is 27. Can you put stuff like that in the OOC, please? I can't beat the dc 27. I am shaken then, I guess. -2 to everything >_> EDIT: free action switch to SKA form standard action: attack i forgot to include the -2 in that roll, but I think a 21 still hits, right?
Elfy Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 stinger is now 60 feet from breakdown (and therefore 65 feet from emperor).
Thejoshie Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 GAH! Iapologize. From here on out, my rolls will go here.
quotemyname Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 GAH! Iapologize. From here on out, my rolls will go here. Thanks. I prefer not to break the 4th wall in the IC thread. It make for a better story if someone is looking in on it. Elfy, is that the result of two separate move actions or what? Keep in mind that you can't double-move because you are staggered.
Elfy Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 she took a move action on each of her last two turns to move away from the conflict.
quotemyname Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 ahh I get it now. Thanks. I realized that once I had actually read the OOC. Since I am only shaken for a round, I can actually pass a DC 20 intimidate check ... If I roll a 20. sense motive vs. dc 26 (1d20+6=22) I am once again shaken.
Thejoshie Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 The point of origin is Mervy himself. His ForceField negates damage. The range of the attack is 50 feat from point of Origin all around him, so Stinger is safe (last turn she was 65 feet from his position). Reflex save, DC 20 is required. if failed, then Toughness check DC 25 is then needed.
quotemyname Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 Well, my plan worked... Kinda... Currently in Ska form: reflex save (no longer demoralized at the start of the turn - no penalty) (1d20+4=7) fail TOU dc 25 (1d20+6=18) fail by 7 Bruised and Stunned. Depending on what Stinger does, I may clear the stunned condition with my final remaining HP when my turn comes up.
Elfy Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 stinger is out of sight, taking cover behind a car.
quotemyname Posted September 9, 2009 Author Posted September 9, 2009 I WILL shake off my stunned with my last HP. I need to get you down I'm also going to leave myself totally open for a whoopin by your friend This was just one last boost of effort to try and force his hand :P
Thejoshie Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Well congratulations: It worked First Roll is Mervyl's Ionized blast. A +2 All-Out attack cut's the usual penalty to -2 (the penalty is -4 since he's firing into a melee; you attacked stinger). Hit or miss, -2 defense next round. So the Attack bonus is +6: 1d20+6=14 And that's a miss... Move action: Mervyl walking towards Breakdown again. Bold move, but I think Breakdown moving next to Stinger gained him a round of survival. If Stinger is KO'd, however... :twisted:
Elfy Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 since breakdown's defense is currently (17-5=) 12, stinger's attack hits. it only hits by 1 point, so it's not enough for her autofire to increase the damage dc. dc21 bruise bruise damage.
