The werehawk explains "we are trying to track down a man who has been sending artificial doppelgangers, like golems, to replace world Leaders. This gives them control over aspects of our society. We hunt the golem maker, hoping to discover who might be giving HIM orders. As for combat, we try to bring those responsible to trial, rather than the morgue, but when you face phenomenal powers, you must exercise such in return, and such power is rarely controllable in terms of lethality."

I think we should really make a great effort to make sure that people get to justice, not just accidently getting killed.

What is bullet proof?  I'm assuming that it is a weapon of some kind by the way you used the word.

In reply to Jaarenda Tur (msg # 437):

"Bullets are these small bits of lead that move very, very fast. They are fired by these club looking things called guns. They shoot so fast they go right through lots of things...and people. So getting hit with them if you have internal organs is super bad. They are not much of a threat to some of us, but your healing powers would certainly help. I am not sure if your powers can get arrows out of people, but its like that but much smaller and faster." Shade says to Jaarenda.

Well, i am not sure what will happen, sometimes with arrows i had to pull them out first, sometimes they came out on their own.  Mostly it depends on circumstances, if we were in the middle of a battle, there isnt time to stop and pull one out.

Hopefully i dont get hit by one of those, i mean my armor worked against arrows, not sure about something like that.

In reply to Jaarenda Tur (msg # 439):

"we could always get some military grade armour from one place or another. Like a suit of Blender armour?  that might just do it, the fault with that idea is we might need to get one tailor made... they do seem to be form fitted."

In reply to Drifter (msg # 440):

"That might not be a bad idea. I think we should see about getting her some lightweight armor. She is right about trying to get justice. We should try to avoid fatalities if at all possible!" Molly said.

"anyone else think some tech armour would be useful.

In Tri C colours or a sigil for that matter like the one for stability, strength and peace?"

My armor so far has been proof enough, I think it will suffice.

As far as plans go,  We never had very big ones, usually we just walked in the front.  Sometimes we would even do some scouting, then walk in the front.   I'm not sure how things work here though.

In reply to Jaarenda Tur (msg # 443):

"Don't sweat the scouting! I sneak around and can see and hear through...THE DARKNESSS!" Shade does his 'spooky' voice for the last part of the sentence-which of course is far more ridiculous than scary. He also moves his fingers rapidly at Jaarenda, increasing the ridiculous factor.

Molly just shook her head. Some guys just couldn't resist. "Ok jarinda, if you really think your armor will suffice. I hope so. However we generally don't just walk up to an enemy in these times. They oftimes have very powerful weapons and generally a good idea not to alert them more than need be. We try to be cautious most times."

"then there is the point that not all weapons use kinetic damage.  Some project energy of various kind like electricity, heat rays, ice rays, mental blasts and in the extreme cases nanobots"

The Stuntman's face was grim, and certain. "Stay down. Frontal charges have not worked since the creation of firearm called 'the automatic.' The carnage even the early ones could do to the unprepared is something your mind will insist is not real. Everything you hear about how dangerous they can be pales to the reality."

He smiled suddenly. "Unless you have - or are - bulletproof. Old smiths, in the time when guns and armor co-existed, would make armor that could stand up to a bullet, and left the bullet in the armor, as proof the armor could stop bullets. Thus, the use of that term."

"I am not bulletproof. I like to get to a good spot, and rain hell before they know what is on them. If they deserve leading treatment, they can usually take that hit."

Well is there a plan? or someone who is in charge of plans?

Well then i guess the person that knows nothing will put up a plan.

Well i guess this seems much like sieging a castle, well except you can just ignore the walls for the most part with at least part of the team.  As i don't know, can your teleportation be detected?  I know mages might have magical wards to either prevent or alert in the event of teleportation so they are not surprised?  I assume that there is something similar with your equipment?

I think we need to know what these other locations are that seem important,  I am not sure how far away you could be detected, but we can go at least as far away as we think they wont notice and approach the areas south of the house and see what "c" and "d" are, and what is there.

And where are we on this map?

Taking the lead, Jaarenda heads out stealthily toward the area marked C on the map to see what is there to help with a plan.

Shade finally decides to show up, as he is constantly flitting from place to place. "Sorry about that, got distracted. Let me see what I can see in those areas we want to go."

OOC-Using my penetrating vision and hearing in those areas on the map Jaarenda wants to check out.

Shade opens the portal to the sub bay. It seems like a pool of shadow causes everyone standing in it to sink to darkness. Then they rise through the shadow into someplace new.

"Whew! That takes a bit of getting used to!" Puma said. "Thanks though shade. Appreciate the travel assist." her tail flicked ask and forth as she took stock of her new surroundings.

Jaarenda steps through the portal, and looks around for any threats.

Nighthawk steps through and remains in shadow. With his extended arc of vision and sharp senses, he looks around for security devices like cameras or patrolling guards.


19:57, Today: NightHawk rolled 6 (with 2 body) using 3 with the Hero (Champions) system with rolls of 1, 3, 2.  Perception 16-, +6 vs Range mod/sight, IR, Nightvision. – 6

Perception made by 10.

Shade deposits everyone at the sub dock (#37 on game map for group 4). Looking around, there are numerous personnel nearby and a fair number of cameras. Also of note is FORCE overseeing the lowering of a missile into the submarine while some of his people attend to other duties about the boat. At least, that's what they WERE doing. When the heroes rise from the shadows, everyone stops what they're doing and stares openly.
FORCE himself, in mid wave (directing the missile a little to the left), glares at the intruders and says, "you've got to be kidding me... again!?"

"Looks like we're not the only ones who show up unexpectedly. How many bodies do you have, anyways?"

Well... this does not look good. as not many people have come through the portal yet.

Reaching over to touch nighthawk.


Aid Strength 31 fade 5/turn
08:45, Today: Jaarenda Tur rolled 31 (with 10 body) using 8 with the Hero (Champions) system with rolls of 3, 2, 5, 2, 6, 1, 6, 6.  Aid Strength. – 31

Shade watched with his own special senses, but made sure to absorb a rock or two before doing anything. His shadow form needed to covert solid matter to his energy state to make it more durable, and he proceeded to do so now. Just in case somebody managed to shoot him or hurt him somehow. He was very durable, but his foes could be very powerful as well.

OOC-10:33, Today: Shade rolled 8 (with 2 body) using 3 with the Hero (Champions) system with rolls of 5, 1, 2.  Aid to Body. – 8 All points to the Body stat.

Nighthawk looks at The Elf in surprise, and chuckles deeply as his form bulks up, his claws growing thicker and more powerful. He beats his wings and heads for FORCE, intending to give him an appreciation of Ms Tur's effectiveness.
