Meatheral and Miras: Knowledge [Theology and Philosophy]

Typhon is a figure in ancient Greek mythology famously billed as the Father of all Monsters. Son of Gaia and Tartarus - whether in the sense of deities or primordial forces is up for some debate - and husband to Echidna, he was the absolute deadliest and most fearsome of all creatures, going toe to toe with Zeus and

winning before being imprisoned after their rematch. He was generally depicted with a human, albeit titanic, torso with either a hundred dragon heads coming out of his neck or a human head with dragon heads for fingers, along with a lower body made up of vipers coils and numerous wings.

Bottom line, 'Typhon' is not a name anybody in the magic community is going to be throwing around lightly. Whatever Jerry and Asli think about Set the fact that he seems to be taking the new arrival seriously should be setting off a lot of warning bells.

 

 

Meatheral and Arrowhawk: Sense Motive

Two things are immediately obvious about this kid. First off, there's no point in trying to talk him down or come to a nonviolent solution. He's a child with a magnifying glass and they're the ants. Jerry might be a little hesitant to label anyone a sociopath after just a few sentences but John can practically

smell it on the guy. He's there to cause pain and while he seems largely fixated on Set nobody is just walking away from him without a fight.

Second, he sounds like a teenager, mocking and almost comically superior but he doesn't hold himself like a teenager. He stands like somebody hollowed out a teenager with a melon baller and stuffed a forest fire into the skin until it was bursting at the seems. The closest thing John can think of is a punk hopped up on PCP or one of the more dangerous super-drugs out there but the kid seems too composed and articulate for that. To Jerry it looks like his worst nightmares, where the Tetramegeton takes over and burns him out from the inside.

That hits! And... does absolutely nothing. Have another HP, Arrowhawk.

 

Mechanically this is an Immunity at work, not Impervious. Miras' Super Senses let her surmise pretty easily that this is a similar sort of effect as what she senses from Set and Sekhmet's powers. She can draw whatever conclusions from that that she likes.

Move Action, Meatheral will fly above Anti-Eagle, at about 200ft above him.

Standard Action, Meatheral will transform into Earth Form.

Earth Form

COMBAT
Attack: +2 Melee, +2 Ranged, +4 Earthform
Grapple: +26
Defense: +6, +1 Flat-Footed
Knockback: -7
SAVES
Toughness: +12
Fortitude: +10
Reflex: +1
Will: +7

Surging, as a 2nd Standard Action, Meatheral will Charge at the Eagle as he falls, combining it with All-Out Attack and Accurate Attack for a total of +6 atk, -2 dmg, -4 def. Improved Grab automatically initiates a grapple as well. In this form, his weight puts him to 192 tons. If possible, Meatheral will attempt stay on top of the Anti-Eagle.

However, bear in mind that as Earth Form, Meatheral has +0 initiative, for a total of +11 initiative. If that would cause him to lose his action until he reaches his new initiative, Meahteral would instead hold all of his actions until then.

Anti-Eagle

Toughness Save vs DC 30: 1d20+17 25 Injured and Dazed!

Opposed Grapple Check: 1d20+30 44 In a tie on an opposed check, the character with the higher bonus wins, so no grapple just yet!

 

After some discussing in chat we're going to retroactively treat this as a Slam attack using Leaping, just to avoid falling damage rules which are as terrible as they are awful. Give me a DC 20 Toughness Save, Vahn.

 

The Eagle spends its turn clearing the Daze. Sun Walker is up.

Okay, I have 21PP to pull this off. Better get to it, then.

Free Action: Stunt the following off Miras's Ruh Kalit array. Obscure 7 (All senses, Extra: Independent, Selective, Flaw: Phantasm, Range/Touch). This is an illusory sandstorm that only affects Typhon and his kids.

Standard Action: Use the Obscure.

Move Action: Use Speed to move to behind the Chimera, and wait.

So Miras will be Fatigued and under full Concealment.

EDIT: Based on conversations in chat, edited the construction of this power.

Typhon and the Eagle see through the illusion but the Lamia and Chimaera are effectively blinded.

Typhon
Move Action: Shapeshift Flight 3 (50 MPH; Drawbacks: Power Loss [Restrained]) [5PP] (goose wings)
Move Action: Fly up into the air.
 
Anti-Lamia
Standard Action: Attack Sun Walker: 1d20+7 24, Total Concealment Miss Chance: 1d2 2
That does manage to hit Sun Walker, unfortunately, so he's looking at a DC 30 Toughness Save-- unless you'd like to use Luck Control again, KD!
 
Anti-Chimaera
Standard Action: Attack Miras. Not even going to roll this since Miras is no longer where the Chimaera last saw her!

How many times can I use Luck Control before it's my turn? The answer to that is going to determine a couple of things for me.

 

If the answer is "whenever you want", then I would be using it a total of 3 times: Typhon's Will Save and the Anti-Lamia's Attack Roll (I was considering the Toughness Save, but honestly with a +15 a DC 22 save is not a good place to use that).

 

If the answer is "only 1 time a round" or the like, then it will be on Typhon's Will Save and I'll take the attack.
