trollthumper Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) The OOC thread. Cannonade, Harrier, and Oracle investigate a strange, scary signal. Edited July 13, 2015 by trollthumper
shojikitsune Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Guess I'll post the details first. I am using the Emotion Control.It's a Will save, DC 20, and is a Mental Perception ranged AOE. I may have the Area Effect confused, as it is a Burst, but at Rank 10, it can affect miles based on the range table. Those that succeed will not have their emotions changed, those that fail will have either a warm fuzzy feeling, or any negatives canceled leaving them in at worst, a neutral emotional state.Also, I am searching the office prior to using the PA system, making sure that anything that doesn't look right is unplugged. I'll roll a Notice for that:Link! http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4831681/Lemme know if i did anything wrong here.
trollthumper Posted July 17, 2015 Author Posted July 17, 2015 You can't notice the PA system's finer operations from here, but you at least see the speakers in the lobby are together.As for Area Burst... Area effects do not use the Range or Extended Range tables. The Area Burst covers a space with a radius of (5 feet x rank) - so, 50 feet, in your case. With a diameter of 100 feet, it should cover most of the building... but we are going to need an Opposed Powers check, as Oracle reaches out and feels something at work. That's an 18 for whatever is happening. Roll the rank of your Emotion Control effect (10) against that; if it beats it, the effect is drowned out.
Avenger Assembled Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Stunting Nullify 12 (electronics) (Extras: Area [Burst], Duration [Concentration], Flaws: Distracting, Range [Touch]) off Harrier's pike blade - spending an HP to counter the fatigue. I believe that should cost 24 PP?
shojikitsune Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) Dice roll for my Emotion control opposed check.http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4832818/I guess i am a little iffy on the AOE rules. I thought she had a larger range. In any case, as long as it's not outside her radius, I won't worry much. I will remember in the future.Also sorry for the post delay, I didn't have the ooc thread followed, but that's fixed now. Edited July 19, 2015 by shojikitsune
trollthumper Posted July 20, 2015 Author Posted July 20, 2015 That should work, AA. And, in turn, Oracle is able to counter the emotional effects on the building's staff. So, between the nuking of electronics and the quelling influence of emotion, the chaos is done... for now.
trollthumper Posted August 3, 2015 Author Posted August 3, 2015 Notice checks, everyone. Cannonade uses Skill Mastery to take 20.
trollthumper Posted August 5, 2015 Author Posted August 5, 2015 Then everybody notices that, amidst the discordant wailing and gnashing of the damned, is that... a snare drum? Could this actually be music?
shojikitsune Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Then everybody notices that, amidst the discordant wailing and gnashing of the damned, is that... a snare drum? Could this actually be music? I messed up, Oracle doesn't *have* Skill mastery. But mostly because her player is dumb. So Not sure if you want her to catch it, or if I should roll... I'll roll in case.http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4843115/There, sorry for the mistake. Silly me...
Avenger Assembled Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Expanded my IC post - go ahead and respond, folks
trollthumper Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 All right, Knowledge (current events) and Knowledge (history) checks pertaining to the choice of song. Cannonade rolls 29 on Current Events, 9 on History.
shojikitsune Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I can roll Knowledge (Current events) too. Don't have History, hahahttp://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4844631/For a roll.Will it be the rye, or the kaiser....
Avenger Assembled Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 http://orokos.com/roll/315078 - a 4 on Current Events, effectively a 10 on History.
trollthumper Posted August 12, 2015 Author Posted August 12, 2015 (edited) All right, as at least everyone scored 10+ on a key roll, they all recognize the song - it's "Nearer My God to Thee." Harrier might recognize it as the song that was playing when the Titanic went down. For Cannonade and Oracle... There was a recent news story on how a piece of tape leaked from CNN. This piece of tape was long talked about but rarely glimpsed. It shows a military band in full formation standing in front of a mansion. The tape and quality is somewhat strained, but they're clearly playing "Nearer My God to Thee." This is the piece of tape that CNN has on standby to play on the day the world ends.As this is a thread for Oracle, I'll let her handle this piece of news, if she wants to.

shojikitsune Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Rolling again for the mental protection, andhttp://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4860442/I get a 19. Crosses fingers...
trollthumper Posted September 1, 2015 Author Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) I'll say that works here, as the central signal is somewhat weaker. And hey, Oracle can actually feel that this one is on the move, heading out of the radio station building... Edited September 1, 2015 by trollthumper
trollthumper Posted September 19, 2015 Author Posted September 19, 2015 Well, we're in rounds. We'll be using my Empath build at PL11 for the Shrieker.Shrieker goes on 19.Cannonade goes on 15.
Avenger Assembled Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Harrier goes on 19 - looks like he goes higher than the Shrieker, what with his higher modifier.
shojikitsune Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Ok, here is is, Oracle's initiative!1d20+11=18There we go, I go on 18.
trollthumper Posted September 22, 2015 Author Posted September 22, 2015 Harrier: 19, Unharmed, 2 HPShrieker: 19, Unharmed, 0 HPOracle: 18, Unharmed, 1 HPCannonade: 15, Unharmed, 3 HPHarrier is up first.
Avenger Assembled Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Harrier hits Shrieker. http://orokos.com/roll/328008 = 25! DC 27 Tou save, +1 for each he missed its defense.
trollthumper Posted September 23, 2015 Author Posted September 23, 2015 As that's a 25 on a DC21 Defense, that's a DC29 TOU. And it is Dazed and Staggered.Harrier: 19, Unharmed, 2 HPShrieker: 19, Unharmed, Dazed (Harrier's Action), Staggered, 0 HPOracle: 18, Unharmed, 1 HPCannonade: 15, Unharmed, 3 HPI'm not going to let it get a round off, just have it be disturbing and shoot out radio static and murder. Oracle is up next.
