Mysteries Infinite: The Palace of Fortune [OOC]

[Lone Star]

No problem, Carces. Finals are next week for me. ;)

[Carces]

I'm back! Sorry for the delay.

There's been a complication, so hero point to you both. I trust you are still keeping track of how many you have.

Lone_Star, if you're still writing finals, don't feel obliged to post until you're ready. I'll be patient. :)

[trollthumper]

Hmm... can I spend said hero point to stunt an Area Force Field off of the Gifts of the Dead Array that covers all the shattered tanks, keeping the water and the transformed citizens inside?

[Carces]

Yep, but keep in mind that it will still pull from your array. While you have the field up you won't be able to use the other Gifts, as per normal.

[trollthumper]

I'm aware.

[Lone Star]

Sorry I've been off on here! I am posting. KC makes a rather stylish Fire Blast attack at the Queen.

WOOOOOO

[Carces]

Nice shot!

I think I'll have a little more time tomorrow. I'll post then!

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas!

[Carces]

The roll I made didn't include your extra DC from the autofire, KC. She's taken a decent beating.

This is an expansion of the same complication, so no new hero point for this turn of events. However, it also means the hydra spends his action being a spaz, so go ahead and act again.

[trollthumper]

I don't suppose I can extend the force wall to cover the other aquarium that just burst open, can I?

[Carces]

You can, but in order to keep both aquariums visible, you'll have to go towards the center of the room. That'll put you closer to the hydra, so keep that in mind.

[Lone Star]

Sorry it has been a while since I've posted. What's Nick asking KC to do?

[trollthumper]

Shoot them. Shoot them all!

[Lone Star]

Kid Cthulhu surges to make an additional attack.

The Mental Blast does not require a roll, but here's the fire blast roll.

[Carces]

The attack goes through your impervious toughness, Nick. It's a DC 29 toughness save.

[trollthumper]

Well, that's a 25... but then I realized that I'm already Bruised. So, now I'm Stunned. Crap.

[Lone Star]

KC is out of hero points- so he's going to have to power stunt. He'll use Create Object 8 to hold the fish in, and he'll have to take the fatigue when he drops the effect.

[trollthumper]

Oh, hey, look at that, a 27 using Ereshkigal's Talons. Sadly, this thread takes place before I bought up Improved Critical on the talons, but I'm pretty sure it still hits. That'll be a DC28 Toughness on the part of the hydra.

[Carces]

I use updated character notes in my adventures, simply because I'm not nearly thorough enough to remember or copy down old character statistics. I trust you guys not to put your points in powers to specifically defeat an adventure of mine.

We'll consider your attack a critical hit. I'll post the result when LS confirms his action. I imagine he's still going to sustain the barrier, but he can still move or take an action that does not require the use of his magics.
