The Wolf and The Night (OOC)

[quotemyname]

A-OK. So that's a move to hide, and a standard to reconfigure, right? Are you going to surge and use the gadget? Or are you just going to pass your turn along? Just make your IC post whenever your ready.

[Gizmo]

Uh... yeah, sure, let's have him surge to use it. Touch attack. (1d20+14=31) Argh, 1 away from a crit. Still, I'm guessing that hits, calling for a DC 16 Fortitude save.

EDIT: Just noticed that you had something IC about the battlesuit guy disappearing? What's that about? Midnight's mask gives him infravision, for the sake of argument. If that's not enough, do you mind if I retroactively drop those two ranks of Improved Critical to stick Counters Concealment on his lenses for the same PP cost?

[quotemyname]

The battlesuit guy has concealment, and yes, I'm fine with the retroactive drop since you hadn't noticed that earlier. Could have been bad writing on my part that made you miss it. I'm also allowing it on the basis that that mask is designed to make you see things when you normally wouldn't be able to, IE within the mist, etc.

DC 16 Fort Save (1d20+5=6) So very fail. I don't like rolling 1's on saves. I'll Fiat that. Take a HP.

With his +5 bonus, he automatically passes the DC 16 on the re-roll.

I'll wait for your IC post before I do anything for Lukos.

[quotemyname]

So, let's try that whole axe thing again. AoA5/PA5; DC 30 on hit (1d20+10=15) That hits due to him having used all out attack.

Toughness DC 30 (1d20+12=31) And he till takes no damage. :?

SM on stealth giving Lukos an 18, btw.

[quotemyname]

Mr. Battle-suit can't beat your 28 stealth. But he can beat Lukos. Notice DC 18 (1d20+5=19) He does in fact, and will bum rush him.

Lukos is not surprised since he can accurately sense the man with scent. Miss chance; Power Attack 3 DC 30 on hit (1d20=2, 1d20+5=9) swing and a miss.

Notice DC 18 (1d20+5=8) Tiny on the other hand has no clue what to do.

[Gizmo]

Blarg, okay. The battlesuit guy doesn't know where Midnight is, so sneak attack. Trevor starts with a move-action demoralize, at DC 24, then goes to use the acid again: Touch attack. (1d20+14=34) Bam! That's a DC 21 save. I think that, thanks to the Concealment he still qualifies sneak attack, although next round the gunrunner just has a 50% of missing rather than having to make the Notice check. If that's the case, I'll surge for a Power Attack 5. (1d20+9=22) That's DC 26 with sneak attack damage, but only DC 22 without it.

[quotemyname]

fort vs. dc 21 (1d20+5=11) Yuck. -10 to toughness then.

Toughness vs. DC 26 (1d20+2=3) And DEAD. Already Fiatted for him once, not doing it again.

[quotemyname]

miss chance; AoA5/PA5 DC 32 on hit. (1d20=18, 1d20+8=26) Tiny's attack. For once Midnight's getting hit.

[Gizmo]

Yee... wait, how is a PL10 guy hitting DC 32?

Toughness save. (1d20+8=10) Oh, man...

[quotemyname]

15 + rank 12 + power attack 5 = 32.

No re-rolls left?

[Gizmo]

Not so much.

[quotemyname]

Battlesuit -- 14 -- Unconscious

Tiny -- 12 -- Bruised x1, Injured x1

Midnight -- 8 -- Unharmed -- 0 HP

Lukos -- 6 -- Unharmed -- 4 HP

So now it's lukos. Same drill. AoA5 PA5 DC 30 on hit (1d20+10=13) Which hits because of his AoA last turn.

TOU DC 30 (1d20+12=29) Hah! Bruised him!

[quotemyname]

miss chance; aoa5 pa5 DC 32 vs lukos (1d20=10, 1d20+8=22) Miss chance causes Tiny to miss. Midnight is up.

[Gizmo]

(Midnight made a recovery check in chat, for the sake of argument, folks)

Nothing exciting, gonna renew the mist and use Stealth.

[quotemyname]

Lukos - AoA5/PA5 DC 30 on hit. (1d20+10=26) That hits.

Tiny's save - TOU DC 30 (1d20+11=12) That's all she wrote for him. And since I've already fiatted for tiny as well, there will be no re-roll here.

He doesn't actually suffer any knock back from this attack, strangely enough. :P

[Gizmo]

So, where do you want to go with this? Do you want to play through them checking out the warehouse or skip to grudging admission of mutual respect before fading back into the night?

[quotemyname]

maybe the cops finally show up and force them to skip to the latter?

[Gizmo]

Sounds like a plan.

[quotemyname]

in lieu of posting twice in a row, I'll let you do the honors.

[Gizmo]

Tch, pawn it off on me, eh? Alright, I'll get it.
