Zyzzak

Zyzzak's steady aim allows him to anticipate the actions of Devil Ray and strike his opponent. The beam strikes hard, leaving your opponent very unsteady on his fee.
Devil Ray TOU save vs Zyzzak: 1d20+12-2 18
Close enough, Bx3, Staggered

Am I the only one who hates using the "staggered" in descriptive text when an opponent gets Staggered?

"Cool" Luke
HP: 1
CND: Ice Cold, cracked a little -1 damage


Luke lines up another shot and lets it rip. "Unless you are trying to buy time for someone, this is just crazy odds.", remarks Luke.
Attack 23 DC 27 toughness if it hits.

Cool Luke

Luke's blast hits Cueball, but it only seems to encourage him more.
Cueball TOU save vs Cool Luke: 1d20+11-2 19
Bx3, Dazed

Cueball

"THIS IS GLORIOUS BATTLE!" he screams as he swings at The Shield.
Cueball unarmed vs The Shield: 1d20+12 19
DC23 TOU

Devil Ray

Frustrated, the aquatic villain fires another laser at Zyzzak. But his aim is off due to the continued attacks against him.
Devil Ray laser vs Zyzzak: 1d20+10 17

Madame Macabre

HP: 0
Cnd: Fatigued; Bruised (-1); Distracted

"Who's a witch!?!", Elizabeth responds to Devil Ray in an incredulous tone. Hey wait a minute...am I witch?

Pausing only for a moment, the pale, black-clad woman resumes her entropic assault.
“Necrosis” - Ranged Necrotic Damage 10 (Extra: Alternate Resistance - Fortitude; Flaws: Quirk: Only Affects Organic Life, Distracting). Here's the roll: 2nd Necrotic Blast Vs. Devil Ray: 1d20+10 22. So, a total of 22. Elizabeth is Distracted again

Madame Macabre

Necrotic bolts strike Devil Ray causing him to let out a cry and collapse to the ground.

Evelyn "Bulwark" Gracen
HP: 3
Cnd: Healthy


While Silver Phoenix and the Canadian shield confront Cue Ball Evelyn flanks the battle hungry warrior and stomps a foot down behind his knee in an effort to knock him off balance and create an opening for The Shield's oncoming assault. She then takes a few quick steps back to keep out of the way of Luke's ranged frosty strikes.

"Make sure to keep lines of fire clear for ranged attacks."

... the woman remarks business-like to her fellow teammates who were duking it out in melee alongside her.
OOC wrote:If I remember correctly, attacking into melee with ranged attacks suffers a penalty, as though the target had partial cover.

Free Action: Adjust Dynamic Array to include Strength Based Damaged 11.
Move Action: Close into melee with Cue Ball (then use Move-by Action to fall back a little after attacking)
Standard Action: Aid Shield (Attack) Aid Shield attack: 1D20+8 = [16]+8 = 24 Three degrees of success. That's +5 to Shield's next attack.

Bulwark

Cueball actually seems impressed by your use of tactics and teamwork.

Harry "The Shield" Mackenzie
HP: 0 Condition: Normal

Harry stepped forward, driving his titular shield into Cueball's attack to deflect the blow. When the attack hit, instead of fighting it, he allowed the impact to twist his body. As he turned he transferred the force of Cueball's attack into his own strike: a brutal right hook at the man's jaw.

The Shield

You blow slams him hard and sends him flying back. He pushes his head off the ground and mutters "Glorius" before collapsing.
Cueball TOU save vs The Shield: 1d20+11-3 14
By 18... yeah out.

Combat is over.

All

Just as Cueball collapses, a shadow forms beneath all of your opponents, and they fall into them.

Harry "The Shield" Mackenzie
HP: 0 Condition: Normal

Harry shakes his right hand with a grimace at the throbbing pain. That man had a head like a concrete bunker. A better combatant would have used a palm strike, but even he couldn't help but fall back on bad habits.

"Thanks for the assist," He says with an appreciative nod to Bulwark, then looks around and activating his comm, "Our opposition just disappeared. Is everybody okay?"

HP: 1

"So, knock out the bad guys and they get eaten by the magical stuff here. Remind me not to get knocked out.", says Luke. Turning to face those in his area he adds in an additional concern. "Drac is still out there somewhere. Plus who knows who else. I'd say we get this place secured as much as we can before it gets worse.", adds Luke.

Evelyn "Bulwark" Gracen
HP: 3 - 1 HP from Leadership = 2
Cnd: Healthy


Eveyln offered Harry a return nod after he knocked out the battle hungry man. She watched with a furrowed brow as the bodies were swallowed up. The woman's metal coated eyes shifted over to Luke when the ice man started planning ahead.

"Let's regroup then see about contacting Seven once we know their target is down. She may be able to confirm for us if any hostiles remain in the Nexus."

She tilted her head to the side, toward the Canadian Shield, who had contacted their other teammates, when Evely mentioned 'their target'. A moment later, after panning her gaze over their surroundings, she focused on Silver Phoenix.

"You managed to take the magic spear from Dracula. Good. That's no small feat."

A subtle nods of approval was given to the younger woman, then she looked out to the magical object contained in cases.

"See if you can find a case to store it in before we move on."

Madame Macabre

HP: 0
Cnd: Fatigued; Bruised (-1)

"Oh my!" is all that Elizabeth manages as a shadow swallows up Devil Ray before her very eyes.

The pale necromancer relaxes a little, believing the fight might be over. "Are you ok?", she says giving Zyzzak a looking over.

Taking a few seconds to confirm that this isn't some kind of trick (and that she and Zyzzak aren't getting attacked again), Elizabeth gives a nod to her alien comrade. "I can 'port us back if you are willing."
