Invasion! - Danger Mansion (OOC)

[Angelica]

Exactly where is Dead Head compared to Geckoman and Ionica?

[Dr Archeville]

Same place Atlas, Jack/Avenger, and Phantom are. Probably near the front grounds.

No, wait, they're with Fleur, and she was at the back setting up defenses... right?

I have no idea where Geckoman is. Ask Ecal ;)

[Ecalsneerg]

God knows. He was talking to Ace, so likely near the front.

[Heritage]

I'd been kind of avoiding this thread, to be honest, because I was unclear on how the whole time/continuity thing was working out, but if Colt's here his girl should maybe make an appearance :D

[Heritage]

Just to clarify, most of the Knights recall seeing Grim's pixie form, but it would be news to her new teammates on the Interceptors, since she had trouble accessing it for a while.

[Cyroa]

ok all. If you want to join this thread, this is it. I'm closing it up by the end of the weekend and then getting it rolling. Our enforced haitus put me way behind schedule so I'm going to get htis start.

Also, if you are joining the thread, DO NOT COME FROM THE OUTSIDE. We are way way way past time for survivors. If you char didn't make it to the mansion by now, you may assume they are out of the action/dead/unconscious/incapacitated. If you want to join before then, you've been in the mansion injured or helping the injured.

You have 'till Sunday night to rp. ;)

For flavor/setting:

Think of any show/movie/book, where you’ve got limitless evil bad guys pouring down on a small group of heroes. They have no chance to win, not even to survive, if they stay. NONE AT ALL. Yet they stay. That’s the setting you’re in.

Some ground rules:

1) No one has any hero points at the start of this. (If you have a specific complication that might work for this, then I’ll likely give you the HP for it. And it can’t have come up in your other Invasion thread to count.)

2) I’m going to be running this one fast and loose with the combat rules. This is not a typical ‘combat round’. There are no attack rolls here. I am giving you complete freedom to go to town describing your doomed heroic actions. There are literally limitless numbers of things to attack. When the demons’ turn comes (at the end of the round to make life easy), you will be getting a number of hits/wounds/injuries. Special things I’ll let you roll for. But a lot, I’m just going to say ‘you take X wounds’. (Mainly cause I don’t feel like rolling hundred of rolls.) I’ll make sure to look at your defenses to take them into consideration. (If you can’t think of what to attack/describe, feel free to ask me; I’ve got a lots of options prepared.)

3) For now, please only post once. Next round (ie after the demons hit you all), I’ll be changing this up a little and you’ll be able to post multiple times ‘per round’.

4) That said, if people do not post by Saturday, they lose their turn and likely are buried by the hordes and are down.

5) Before you act: everyone make a Fear check (ie Will) vs 15. (low target since you’re all heroes) If you fail, you don’t go running but you’re terrified and will lose some time/get a penalty to actions.

If there are no questions, feel free to go post.

Two related questions.

Given that Ace hasn't really been out and about just holdign things down here (and his pile of starting HP) would it be Ok to have him "use" inspire/leadership to counter the fear/give bonuses as his emptying of his HP pool?

[Cyroa]

Yeah, that's fair.

[angrydurf]

Will Save (1d20:9+8=17)

Yay no is Scared

So I'll give his inspire bonus to as many as I can witht he speach and counter the fear with leadership as needed/able. :)

[quotemyname]

DC 15 Will (1d20:7+7=14)

I really just can't catch a break with this rolling thing lately >_>

I should have a post coming sometime in the near future. I'll post reflecting my being terrified.

[quotemyname]

Okay, post is up. For now I'm assuming that he fails the save vs. fear. If Ace uses leadership later to alleviate the effects, then so be it. He would still be initially affected, I think so there will probably be little need for this post to be edited.

[Dariusprime]

Will vs Fear (1d20:10+8=18)

Alrighty

[ex3lev3n]

Fearless =]

[quotemyname]

Fearless =]

DUH!!! So is Colt! >_<

I think I can just leave the post as is though. He's just acting scared because of the amount of demons there are. It would "scare" even the fearless. ;)

[Heritage]

(20:43:28) ChatBot: Heritage rolls 1d20 and gets 13.

I'm using my step-mom's computer and I don't want to sign up for D.I.C.E on her PC, so a crappy roll is what I get, with no rerolls, right?

[Heritage]

Ok, I didn't even realize that you can't do dice adds in the chat, so here's a new roll; as with Colt, I think the old post still works.

[Ecalsneerg]

Cy never made said deadline post, so

Will 1d20+7=21

EDIT: Or... Geckoman's, when I remember who I posted with *facepalm*

[Cyroa]

DS is immune to fear (even though I rolled before remembering that )

Sorry I missed it. My internet kept crashing. I'll move this one along this afternoon/evening...if they haven't posted, I'm going to say other heroes are dragged down... (So post before then if you want to do something.)

[alderwitch]

I forgot to mention here. Phantom is also fearless :)

[Ecalsneerg]

I just realised I forgot to post Geckoman's save in the edit, and IC is down. You can't prove I failed! You can't prove it!

[Cyroa]

as it was pointed out to me:

;)

[Ecalsneerg]

I mean I'd already rolled it yet forgot to post. Thus, using DICE is cheating.

[Warmonger]

Hmm... I think I missed it. But I'll roll anyway. 1d20=6 Doh!

All-Star is a feared (and probably dragged down as I missed the deadline).
