Free Action: Draw the Strike 2 staff. Obviously, the Stunning Attack and Variable Descriptor functions are busted.

Standard Action: Lay about himself with the staff against the rent-a-mooks. He's only got Takedown Attack 1, but if it helps, he has Extended Reach 1 so a 10' range about him. So he can definitely go for the mooks around him, but the ones near Fulcrum, your call.

Taking 10 for minions, and Power Attacking for 3, he's got 10+10=20 to hit, and is doling out DC23 Toughness saves.

Move Action: Taunt Crazy Lady using Skill Mastery for an auto-31.

The swordsmen minions can neither avoid those attacks nor make those Toughness Saves! As for who he can reach with Takedown Attack 1, I'm visualizing the fight arranged like so, where M = Minion:

M - M S

P F G Z

B M - M

At rank 1 the targets do all have to be within 5' of each other, but for expediency's sake, I'll say he manages to take out all four of them.

DC22 Toughness save (1d20+9=12) Why, dear lord, why.

This is all your fault, Gizmo. DC22 Toughness re-roll, because Gizmo hates Geckoman and all that is good and pure (1d20+9=10) Add on +10, and he's Bruised.

I have one HP. And deep-seated loathing issues.

DC21 Toughness save against another ****ing sword. (1d20+9=14) Fail by 7. Bruised a second time, and Dazed.

So, Bruised x2, Dazed, 1 HP

Fulcrum's lost her top 10 Toughness, so we're down to the Impervious stuff. Any Drain Toughness at this point has to work through the Impervious, too, so -1 for every 2 she fails by.

Okay, Jack starts with 5HP, gets one for the depowering, then for his complications for his family, teammates and neighbourhood. Similarly, Geckoman and Fulcrum each get an HP for their Complications regarding the Interceptors and Mara gets one for her Hatred of people who endanger children.

Due to the magic of combat time, Mara has a pretty limited amount she can do on her turn - she moves to the sword, and picks it up, and that's it!

Kristof, the HoS 'Atlas' is sick of sitting around! He grabs the Hexcrafter and uses Leaping and a full round action to get most of the way to the fight (both of them are still at least a Move Action away if anyone is looking to head them off).

Meanwhile, Geckoman's Regeneration peels off one of his bruises, and he's up.

Ah, jeez, sorry to keep slowing the thread up. At least I won't have much to do for a few rounds. >.<

Okay, nothing fancy here. Staggered and 1 HP limits the ol' options. As usual I'm assuming her array is set to max Flight default, and I didn't say anything about changing it in previous posts. Unless I'm blind as a bat right now.

For story purposes and mechanical recovery...

Move Action: Fly, oh, 1000 ft or so straight up.

Next round unless harassed she will use the HP and start the two round recovery from Staggered. After that Miss Crimson Glowy Mage is in for nasty surprise.

Standard Action: Attack Jack of all Blades. (1d20+5=23) Luckily that's a miss!

Without any HP left, Gecks is stuck waiting out the daze, though he does head another bruise. Jack, on the other hand is going to spend one to remove the daze and one to cancel the fatigue, which are apparently two different things in the rules!

Time to be mathematically unwise!

Mara gets sick of waiting and beelines for the Hexcrafter.

Mara's wielding the sword the pirate got disarmed, the stat block for which I am putting here so that I don't have to keep looking it up:

Device 5 (Cutlass) (easy to lose) [15 pp]

Corrosion 5 (PFs: Improved Crit 2, Incurable, Mighty, Precise) (Extra: Penetrating 4) {24}

-AP: Teleport 6 (20 miles) (Extra: Portal) (PFs: Progression 6 [500 by 500 ft]) {24}

She essentially has +5 Attack, +5 Defense, +1 Toughness, not including the Inspire.

Melee Attack Roll vs. Hexcrafter (stolen sword; +5 Inspire) (1d20 + 5 + 5=24)

That should do.

If I'm doing my math right, it's DC15 Fort against the drain, DC21 Tou against the damage (DC16 Fort if Mighty applies to the drain as well).
