Imp doesn't have full control on his powers, and even when he does he will still subconsciously adjust to what people around him find pleasing/attractive, so if this approach doesn't work for your character, please let me know what will.

Best 3 out of 3 is 5 successes. I'll describe his moves after others roll.
Edit: Woops! I forgot the handicap for acting with the wrong hand. Be right back...
Edit: Huh. Apparently a character is considered ambidextrous automatically if he/she has Mega-Dexterity (Ab: pg 248). Sooooo... the Doctor's theatrics have no point mechanically! Yeah! I guess he's just a big ham. Hopefully, none of the Mega-Dex characters point this out in the future. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge.
Edit: (3rd time's the charm?) I think I did the rolls wrong, as another poster pointed out in the Introduction post, Difficulty & Target Number are not the same.
Avilister:As a note, Mega-attribute dice can lower the difficulty of a roll, but not the target number, which are different. It's rather like Exalted's system in that sense. If you're facing something you need multiple successes to do, you can forgo rolling Mega-Att dice to lower the difficulty, but I can't think of anything in the Aberrant ruleset that changes target numbers (unlike Exalted, which has a few).
So I would have 2 Successes in Roll 1, 4 Successes on Roll 2, and 3 Successes on Roll 3. Since I can not use the Mega-Dex Die to lower the Difficulty (as it is an opposed roll), I will roll it now.

I will keep up this discussion just a bit longer, maybe another 12hrs or so, just so that people can talk a bit more. Then I will move on to your next challenges. I don't want this to get boring, though it is important that your chars realize how different they actually are. For example, I was even surprised when I looked at everyone's chars and found how mega-stam heavy the party was. With your stats, you can run 5 minute miles all day and not get winded.

Alright. All tasks here simply assume that the first X dice represent Mega-Attribute X.
Mental Prodigy: Engineering.(17:33, Today: Comstock rolled 1 success using 2d10 with the Target Number system with a target of 7 with rolls of 8,1.) Two successes.
Design Swimming Pool: Mega-Int 1, Int 1, Engineering 2, +2 die for Mental Prodigy.(Comstock rolled 1 success using 4d10 with the Target Number system with a target of 7 with rolls of 1,10,5,5,7,1.)
Two successes. Enough to suggest Dillon can follow the design ideas of the others at least and perhaps competently work with plumbing, pumps, or construction equipment.
Digging out the pool: Mega-Strength 4, Strength 5 (Strength boosted through Density Control: Increase), Might 2. (Comstock rolled 2 successes using 7d10 with the Target Number system with a target of 7 with rolls of 5,2,9,6,6,9,5. Digging out the pool-bed.)
That looks like 22 successes thanks to Mega-Strength.
That will burn up my Quantum pool after awhile. 4 quantum a pop will get me about six activations of density control. I could draw it out, but I don't think Comstock really has that level of control yet. Assume that he digs the trenches, moves the first few blocks with consummate skill, and then weakens back to his base-level, needing a rest.

4 successes to hit. Gravitic Bolt (Bashing) does 11 bashing damage - Comstock can soak it easily. In fact, since his soak doubles the damage or more, he takes 0. Even if the 3 extra dice (for accuracy) rolled up 2 successes, he'd still be good. Quentin also puts up some defense. His soak depends on what method is being used to attack him (stupid conditional defenses). See also gravitic shield for extra effects (reduced attack successes).

The soothe (a lot of successes there) should help as well, making people a bit more willing to be carried off and calmed down once this is all over. Especially if even more soothing goes on (we've already seen Grav has it for example).

"Okay ... good thoughts. Teams should be one 'herc,' someone with skills, a flier, and a specialist, then, right? So, Sol and me are the foundation.
Gravitas, Impetus? You guys can move stuff pretty easily or make things lighter for us lifters, so let's split you up. Gravitas to me, Impetus to Sol, sound good?
Prodigal, my team needs a flier, and Sam -- Blitzkrieg -- you were looking to learn how to fly," Dillon tried out Sam's rarely used Nova-name, "so let's split you up. Blitzkrieg with Solitaire, Prodigal with me?

I'm a bit unsure what the desired effect was here, so I just went with what was most useful for you. Shooting the vehicle itself stops it. Shooting the people inside would kill them, or at the least mortally wound them, even with bashing damage.
Also, you might want to define what happens when the Heaven's Light bolt hits, as I'm not sure what kind of damage it does (is it concussive light like cyclops' eye beams, is it some effect that just sort of magically disrupts the functioning of of things or the bonds of causality?

Gravitas rolled 3 successes using 8d10 with the Target Number system with a target of 7 with rolls of 2,10,4,1,9,1,2,9. Gravity Field, 1 mega.
Only 2 successes needed to negate gravity entirely, and Quentin hasn't actually purchased this technique yet, so its at +1 diff (which consumed one of the three successes) and double cost (6 quantum). As a note, per page 200 of the core book, everyone in the field gains one dot of Strength and Stam but loses one dot from Dex (except for me, I get all the positives but none of the negatives.) It creates a field about 27meters in radius, very probably enough to effect the entire building.

Just a reminder, dodge actions have to be planned for in this system, so if you shoot and then want to dodge, you treat it as a multiple action penalty to both actions, and have to reserve the dodge before you take your action.
In this case, I'm just going to say that it is a new round however, as the gunner had to steady himself and take aim. So dodging will occur as normal. To speed things up, I will roll attack/defense/damage all at the same time.

Hopefully he will draw the hail of bullets onto him in the process. The punch is intended to shove the vehicle out of line and shake up the guys inside. I have sort-of imagined this vehicle as an armored car or similar light armor ... if it is a full-blown tank of some sort, Comstock's action remains the same, just shift his target from the vehicle's hood to it's forward compartment.
Multiple actions, a full Dash action to get there and a 'Strike' maneuver. Rolling (Strength + Might - 3):

Two successes on the ten.
Again, buffed Mega-Strength is going to add 25 successes, whether his action is treated as a Strength + Might roll against the vehicle or a damaging attack against a large stationary target. I cannot find stats for Bashing soak on a tank or car, but even if I set soak arbitrarily high that should shake the vehicle up a bit.

not sure what difficulty would be at for any of this, but Rydi, let me know if I get jacked somewhere along the line
if anybody decides to get nosey (like doc's eavesdropping in the field, which Harley became aware of thanks to his "creepy feeling" enhancement) and comes looking for him, they'll find he's disappeared off the radar.
if they do manage to spot him during any of this, he'll suddenly become acutely aware of it, stop his activities and turn his attention to them

Empathic Manipulation hits everybody. Willpower rolls of 6 successes or higher will cancel the effect, as will Iron Will. Psychic resistances are applicable. The rage effect will hit everyone, though it is primarily designed to make people angry at those on opposing teams (i.e. the soldiers and their nova leaders against your team). If you fail the roll, anyone that fails by 3 or more is consumed by hate/anger, those that fail be 1-2 are impassioned, but can still control themselves with the expenditure of willpower.
People that are still in control will have to manipulate, cajole, or just hold back their out of control buddies until they get calm again.

For those that would have experimented with rapid recharge of their Q pools, or maxing their powers, I think a few taint points (1 for each) are probably in order. Prolonged, repetitive use of such abilities are really the ready source of taint in the game. This period might also justify the purchase of any Tainted powers or Q. And it certainly also justifies an increase in powers or Q purchased normally as well.
I would also highly appreciate it if people spent some xp on skills at this point. We are getting enough that you can afford it, and by now nearly everyone will have learned something new.
Oh, people can continue to post their activities if they haven't already, and post more on the investigation. But general activity will be moving over to 'On the Strip' for now.

[[OOC: Ok, dice roller fucking hates me, you won't even believe this even if you go to the dice roller window and see it yourself:
15:01, Today: Gravitas failed (no successes) using 5d10 with the Target Number system with a target of 7 with rolls of 1,1,1,1,1. Warp duration (Vegas Trip).
15:01, Today: Gravitas rolled 5 successes using 8d10 with the Target Number system with a target of 7 with rolls of 5,9,1,8,3,7,9,10. Per+Warp, 1 Mega - Targeting Vegas.
Since the Warp duration roll does not meaningfully have a botch, as the warp must stay open for at least one round, this just means that Willpower points have to be spent to keep it open longer than that. Still, all 1's? Do I win a fucking prize for that?]]
