Ley Line/Nexus Presence: No Ley Line or Nexus within range.
Combat Round: 4
Ronith curses the Splurgoth and their lack of teamwork as he is forced to scatter from the missiles. Explosions rocking overhead as War retaliates. Ronith finds an opening and launches from below, barreling upwards towards War. Ronith's blades connecting with the chin-guard and rending the metal apart as it falls down below in a piece of scrapped metal. Ronith darts over War and back down towards the ground as the behemoth is trying to follow. When Ronith re-engages, Grant engages with him wielding his Omega Blade. Both Grant and Ronith moving at incredible speed, getting an average of three attacks versus War's one. They each start chipping away at the metal behemoth's body with various pieces falling to the ground. On one pass, Ronith feels his blade get stuck and flung out of his hand, though the speed of Cosmic Armor allows him to keep his eye on it and recover it in a blink.

Stardust dive bombs the last support flyer for War with the Vulture on their wing. They lob a volley of four plasma missiles which impact the enemy flyer, plasma damage washing over their power armor. Vulture follows Stardust's volley with a volley of his own Fragmentation mini missiles, the shrapnel shredding part of the armor as both re-engage with their rifles. The enemy flyer remains undeterred as it darts around them and the explosions before flying up past the Vulture with an extended Chainsaw attachment and searing off one of his wings. The Vulture's PA starts listing and losing altitude as the enemy flier squares up with Stardust and fires a series of their own lasers. [-23 MDC to Main Body of Ironwing.] Stardust hears Vulture on the coms. "Take that damn thing out, Starshot!" He calls out on his way down.

Watching Ronith's furious engagement with War, Lilith mentally readies herself for up close and personal combat. Empowering her body thanks to her mind, Lilith barrels up towards War and joins the fray with Ronith and Grant. The three of them able to effectively offset War who is having trouble keeping up with the speed displayed by Ronith and Grant. War summons an enormous ethereal blade which psionics can recognize as a 10ft plus tall Psi-Sword. Gloriosa empowers herself with several talismans before launching a flaming attack towards the behemoth, the flames cutting into the damaged building-sized mech. Together, the four are able to pressure War a little more, keeping the Behemoth off balance as more pieces of the 30ft mech are sliced off.

What are your intentions?

Seeing as metal and armor is sloughed off of War with each strike from her and her companions, Lilith feels a surge within her. Her fear lapses away, replaced by a rush of excitement as she focuses in on the fray. Her senses enhanced, her sword-arms a blur as she rings blow after blow against the Horsemen. "Finally, getting to something interesting..." she mutters to herself, thoroughly enjoying the danger of the battle.

Know they enemy and never underestimate them.

Even as she swings past Ronith in the fray, her buzzing wings and senses still seem slow compared to him. Lilith dampens down her excitement, the twisted proverb from her past both a reminder of what she used to be and a warning not to be reckless. She sticks to attacking the legs and lower body of the mech, staying away from those quickly arms and the dangerous Psi-Sword, knowing from experience just how deadly even an inexperienced user can be with one. She tightens her grip on her magical shield, ready to use it at an instant's notice should War's ire come her way.

Flaming Dagger: 2D6 M.D.; lasts 6 minutes per activation.
Constant Effects
Gives the character the ability to hear very faint sounds (light footsteps, small animals breathing). The character can also overhear conversation at a much greater distance than is normally possible. + 1 on initiative.

Can see double the usual distance and detail of normal human vision.

Range: 1,000'; must be starlight or some other light source available. If in a completely blacked out area, a cave for example, nothing will be visible.

The Mystic Knight is impervious to lasers, ion blasts, particle beams, plasma bolts, electricity, fire, heat and radiation.
Magically created energy and ley line storms inflict half damage.
Rune weapons, holy weapons, and most magical weapons of all kinds do full damage. Likewise, ordinary swords, clubs, spears, etc., as well as bullets, arrows, Vibro-Blades, thrown rocks, falls, punches and most kinetic based attacks, do full damage.
Applies to all armor worn as well, as it is both an inherit trait and automatically generated field that surrounds the Mystic Knight.

The Mystic Knight is able to feel whether there is a ley line within the area of their sensing abilities, 40 miles (+10 miles).

The knight will automatically feel the sensation of a Rift opening or closing anywhere within 80 miles (+10 miles) of them. Although they cannot tell exactly where this Rift is, the knight knows if it is near or far and whether it is big or small. Note: When actually on a ley line, the Mystic Knight will know exactly where the Rift is located and can sense one where it is, as long as it is on the ley line or a connecting line.

: The expenditure of magic in the form of a spell, Rifting, or Techno-Wizardy can be felt, if not seen, up to 400' (+100') away. The Mystic Knight will not know the location nor be able to trace it, but they will feel its energy and know that magic is being used in the area of their sensing range. Note: This does not include the use of psionic powers.
Sixth Sense
The Sixth Sense is a power that gives the psychic a precognitive flash of imminent danger to themself or somebody near them (within 90'). The character will not know what the danger is or where it will come from, nor who it will be directed at when in a group. All they know is that something life threatening will happen within the next 60 seconds! The Sixth Sense is triggered automatically, without the consent of the psychic, whenever their life is in great peril or the life of somebody they greatly care about (friend, partner, loved one, etc.). The Sixth Sense is only triggered by an unexpected, life threatening event (a trap or ambush is within 90' or a flash flood is rushing their way) which is already set into motion and will happen any second. The power can not be called upon at will to sense for traps or ambush. Instead, it works like an automatic reflex. If the character has used all their I.S.P. the Sixth Sense is temporarily rendered inoperative.
  • Range: 90'
  • Duration: Until the danger passes or happens. Bonuses apply only to the first round of the attack from the source of the sensed danger.
  • I.S.P.: 2
  • Saving Throw: None.
  • Bonuses: The sudden flash of insight provides the following bonuses. All bonuses apply only to the first, initial melee when the attack/danger occurs. Bonuses are lost in subsequent melee rounds after the danger is revealed. +6 on initiative roll, +2 to parry, +3 to dodge, and the character can not be surprised by a sneak attack from behind.

Skybunker

No pattern yet. Grant thinks as he watches War's movements between stabs and slashes of his Omega blade into War's backside. He can't help but think about magic, What if I were to cast it on his missile ports? Would the hatch be forced closed? Or would the carpet cover the opening and catch the missiles? Let's find out! Grant activates his telepathy (4 ISP | RUE 177 | 60' Surface/550'/Two Way | 22 min) and reaches out to Sir Ronith, fleet feet causing his mental words to blur IamgoingtotrytopreventWarfromfiringmissileswithcarpetofadhesion.Mindyourstrikes. Grant forces himself to speak slowly to cast the spell, Carpet of Adhesion (10 PPE | BOM 99 | 60' | up to 10' x 20' area | 15 min | House Rule) Depending on where he sees missile hatches, he will target War's back or a leg. With the spell cast, he continues to maneuver to keep War facing away from him to be able to critically strike with his Omega Blade.

Contingency: If Grant is successful in blocking the missiles from launching (and possibly exploding in the robot), he will try it again on another missile hatch that he can identify.

With his thoughts barely keeping up with his body, Ronith eyes the scene as Grant and Lilith join him in keeping the massive form of War off-balance. What is it the humans say? The bigger they are, the harder the fall? An excellent idea. With Grant hitting him high and Lilith aiming for below, Ronith decides to leverage his speed and agility and do both. The goal will be to knock War off-balance (ideally, onto his back), so Ronith will first charge in with a double-strike aimed at the back of War’s knee, then a flight-assisted leap attack to the behemoth’s face, jaw, or upper torso, then repeat.

Caidyn scowls within their Ironwing as the laser fire strikes them. “Oh, these fuckers are playing hard ball. Alright, baby.” Starshot coos in a murderous tone from within the armor’s pilot seat. Both Caidyn and Stardust giving Starshot full reigns as it’s a matter of survival now. Do what you need to do, make sure we win this thing. Caidyn says, encouraging Starshot to do whatever it takes to win. Yeah, baby, rip this mother a lot of new ones. Stardust coos in agreement from within as a sly smirk crosses Starshot’s lips. You know it, sugars. Starshot replies, reeling back for another strike as the Vulture goes down.
Vulture wrote: "Take that damn thing out, Starshot!"
Seeing Vulture goes down enrages Starshot. “Oh. Hell. No! Try that on me, trash!” Starshot practically screams from within their armor as they barrel towards the remaining enemy, planning to use overwhelming force. “Screw it. Eat another Volley, Bitch!” Starshot growls as they launch their remaining salvo of Plasma mini-missiles and follows up with the Dragon Stopper, forgoing dodging entirely.

  • Range: Self or one other by touch.
    Duration: 14/15 melees
    Saving Throw: None.
    P.P.E.: Twenty-Five
    The magic makes the individual impervious to cold, fire and all energy attacks, impervious to disease, poisons, toxins, gases, and drugs, and provides a form-fitting energy field which appears as a glowing aura around the body (50 M.D.C.). Once the 50 M.D.C. From the energy field are exhausted. the person will suffer normal damage to his own M.D.C. and/or Hit Points but remains invulnerable to the other things listed. Additionally. the invulnerable character is also +10 to save vs magic, psionic attacks and Horror Factor.
  • Range: 100 feet (30.5 m); line of sight, self or one by touch.
    Duration: 14/15 melees
    Saving Throw: Not applicable.
    P.P.E.: Forty-Five
    This powerful spell produces a magical rush that puts Juicers to shame. P.S. is raised to supernatural equivalent (punches and kicks do M.D.), the character gets two additional melee actions/attacks per round, speed is increased by 50%, fatigue has no effect, and the sorcerer is impervious to drugs, mind control, possession, illusions, pain and Horror Factor, as well as able to endure triple the normal damage to his body, and is +3 on initiative, +1 to strike and dodge, and +1 on all saving throws while the enchantment lasts.
    The spell does have consequences, however. Once the enhancements wear off, the once hyped-up character feel s so tired and weak, he is barely able to move for 1D4 minutes. During this period reduce attacks per melee round, speed, skill performance and all combat bonuses by half. After this "down" time, the character returns to normal (minus the effects of normal fatigue or any damage sustained in combat).
  • The Flame Wind Dragon can seemingly cause himself to burst into flames in a manner similar to the psychic Burster or Elemental Fusionist. Unlike them, the Dragon Hatchling's own scales are actually burning, even though this does no damage to the Flame Wind (this is just a natural part of the dragon's metabolism). Because the Flame Wind is actually on fire, anything he is carrying is damaged by his own raging flames and he will ignite anything he touches, such as carpeting, drapes, paper, wood, dry grass, etc. In combat, the dragon's fiery punch or tail does an extra 2D6 M.D. per strike plus its usual P.S. damage. Leaping on its back or trying to wrestle or entangle the flaming dragon will inflict 4D6 M.D. Every 4 seconds (or 2D4x10+10 M.D. per melee round). The flames can be maintained for (5 minutes/20 melee rounds) (+1 minute per level of experience), before the dragon Hatchling must rest for at least ten minutes to regenerate his flaming scales (duration is 10x longer for adults).
  • Invulnerability: 50/50
  • M.D.C.: 140/140
  • P.P.E.: 95/95
  • I.S.P.: 72/74


Gloriosa watches his team leader begin with a strike to the legs, so that's what he does too. Aiming for the other leg, he swings his mighty wings at the back of knee, then switches to the other. Back and forth under foot, Gloriosa attempts to be as much of a nuisance as possible while the others lay on some serious hurt.

Combat Round: 5
Ronith, Grant, Lilith and Gloriosa focus all their fire on War, swarming the Horsemen with superior speed and survivability. Ronith and Gloriosa notice something about War's movements; they have become far more defensive in nature as though studying the Heroes. Grant is able to capture a grouping of the missiles in his carpet of adhesion which detonate shortly after. Based on how off-balance War is, Ronith, Grant and Gloriosa can guess War is not accustomed to such resistance so quickly, and he appears to be shifting strategy. The Heroes are able to damage the large mech to such a degree it loses the ability to fly and War lands on the ground. Instead of fighting, War fabricates an Armor of Ithan around itself then stops moving. Ronith and the rest of the Heroes press the attack and to force the shield down.

Stardust focuses fire on the enemy mech, launching another volley that splashes off the mech. It returns fire and Stardust feels the impact of the strikes as they start seeing red warnings on various parts of their mech. However, Stardust proves to have superior accuracy with the Dragon Stopper and sends the mech tumbling to the ground. Stardust looks over and can track War being peppered by the Heroes, and can see Vulture's IFF still pinging down below. Vulture coughs over the comms. "N-Nice shot! Go-- Blow that... fucker up." Vulture says in a strained voice over the radio.

War concentrates for the better part of five seconds, the towering mech standing there as Ronith, Grant and the others unleash everything they've got on it. Then, Grant, Ronith and Gloriosa are the first to spot the small plume of a dark cloud manifest above War, all three of them recognize it to be an Anti-Magic Cloud. The Horsemen resorting to a last resort as a way to hinder the assault before the Heroes can win. In a mere second, the cloud erupts into a massive and consuming darkness that sweeps across the visible horizon. The cloud easily covering over a thousand feet in any given direction. Everyone feels the effects of their magic immediately falter. [Everyone roll a Save v Magic; if you succeed, your magical effects and ppe are reduced to half strength. If you fail, you lose the ability to command magic, and your magical effects cease.]

The Horsemen then turns back to face Ronith, the psi-greatsword leveled towards the Cyber-Knight as War strives to even the fight, taunting Ronith to continue to fight him in the cloud. Ronith, Gloriosa and Grant also notice War's Armor of Ithan seems to vanish when the Cloud comes into effect. [
It appears that, unlike when used by someone like Grant, War is not able to use or maintain magical effects or spells within an Anti-Magic Cloud of it's own creation. Though debilitating to the team, it is also debilitating to War.
]
Before Stardust can decide where to go, the cloud envelops their area as well, War moving to engage the Heroes about 500ft away.

What are your intentions?
GM Note: Unless you save, all magical effects cease at the beginning of your next post.
Stardust - decide where you go, The Vulture or War. The Vulture is downed about 500ft from War and the Heroes.

Save vs Magic: Automatic Critical Success

Lilith drops along with War to the ground, staying up in the air with the furious buzzing of her wings, panting at the strain of the fight, eyes twitching upwards as the dark cloud settles overhead. "That's not good," she mutters to herself. Dark clouds popping up halfway through a fight? War is up to something.

Her thoughts are all but confirmed as her sense of magic flares as War channels magic into the effect. The dampening effect is immediate, her shield dim and weak despite never being hurt, and Lilith can sense the cloud of anti-magic try and stifle the effects on her completely. It's only through a herculean effort of will that she keeps the effects up despite her weakening reserves.

She growls and dives into combat once more, her attacks and defenses being weakened not keeping her from continuing her onslaught.

Battle Fury Blade: 6D6 M.D.; Can activate Battle Fury for 3 minutes, increasing damage to 2D4*10 M.D., attacking twice per APM used (second attack is parried at a -5), and gaining a 100 M.D.C. magical suit of armor.
Flaming Dagger: 2D6 M.D.; lasts 6 minutes per activation.
Constant Effects
Gives the character the ability to hear very faint sounds (light footsteps, small animals breathing). The character can also overhear conversation at a much greater distance than is normally possible. + 1 on initiative.

Can see double the usual distance and detail of normal human vision.

Range: 1,000'; must be starlight or some other light source available. If in a completely blacked out area, a cave for example, nothing will be visible.

The Mystic Knight is impervious to lasers, ion blasts, particle beams, plasma bolts, electricity, fire, heat and radiation.
Magically created energy and ley line storms inflict half damage.
Rune weapons, holy weapons, and most magical weapons of all kinds do full damage. Likewise, ordinary swords, clubs, spears, etc., as well as bullets, arrows, Vibro-Blades, thrown rocks, falls, punches and most kinetic based attacks, do full damage.
Applies to all armor worn as well, as it is both an inherit trait and automatically generated field that surrounds the Mystic Knight.

The Mystic Knight is able to feel whether there is a ley line within the area of their sensing abilities, 40 miles (+10 miles).

The knight will automatically feel the sensation of a Rift opening or closing anywhere within 80 miles (+10 miles) of them. Although they cannot tell exactly where this Rift is, the knight knows if it is near or far and whether it is big or small. Note: When actually on a ley line, the Mystic Knight will know exactly where the Rift is located and can sense one where it is, as long as it is on the ley line or a connecting line.

: The expenditure of magic in the form of a spell, Rifting, or Techno-Wizardy can be felt, if not seen, up to 400' (+100') away. The Mystic Knight will not know the location nor be able to trace it, but they will feel its energy and know that magic is being used in the area of their sensing range. Note: This does not include the use of psionic powers.
Sixth Sense
The Sixth Sense is a power that gives the psychic a precognitive flash of imminent danger to themself or somebody near them (within 90'). The character will not know what the danger is or where it will come from, nor who it will be directed at when in a group. All they know is that something life threatening will happen within the next 60 seconds! The Sixth Sense is triggered automatically, without the consent of the psychic, whenever their life is in great peril or the life of somebody they greatly care about (friend, partner, loved one, etc.). The Sixth Sense is only triggered by an unexpected, life threatening event (a trap or ambush is within 90' or a flash flood is rushing their way) which is already set into motion and will happen any second. The power can not be called upon at will to sense for traps or ambush. Instead, it works like an automatic reflex. If the character has used all their I.S.P. the Sixth Sense is temporarily rendered inoperative.
  • Range: 90'
  • Duration: Until the danger passes or happens. Bonuses apply only to the first round of the attack from the source of the sensed danger.
  • I.S.P.: 2
  • Saving Throw: None.
  • Bonuses: The sudden flash of insight provides the following bonuses. All bonuses apply only to the first, initial melee when the attack/danger occurs. Bonuses are lost in subsequent melee rounds after the danger is revealed. +6 on initiative roll, +2 to parry, +3 to dodge, and the character can not be surprised by a sneak attack from behind.

Save vs Magic (Anti-Magic Cloud) - Auto save MGP purchase

Grant follows War towards the ground as he continues to strike the giant being from behind. He feels a magical shiver and unraveling of his magic. The Lord Magi looks overhead to see the growing the growing cloud. "No!" Grant says in a low growl. A cloud of anti magic! This is not the first time Grant has experienced this, he had felt its affect before when the team had been trapped in the past. If it hadn't been for Daisuke's timely aid, Grant would have plummeted to his death. This time Grant is closer to the ground, but the dread and fear begin to take hold. The idea of losing his magical power again causes a memory to flood his mind.
Memory wrote: Grant stands before the Three Lords of Magic having completed his tour of service as a member of the brotherhood. Their towering four-armed forms are sitting in huge chairs on a raised dais that makes them appear even larger than they are. The three speak in turn.

Brethan D'zir: "We do not claim to be gods."

Coran D'zir: "We did not come to Earth to establish a brotherhood of priests.

Leizak D'zir: We came to teach the ways of magic.

Coran D'zir: "And we do not abandon our people."

Leizak D'zir: When in true need, call out to us.

Brethan D'zir: "We will answer."
If there has been a time more desperate that this, I don't know when. "O Lords of Magic! Hear my plea, do not let this creature of evil dispel my magic. The first two tenets of magic are 1) Belief and 2) Will, and Grant has been blessed with both. In his mind he binds the threads of magic together willing them to continue to exist. Whether it truly was the Three or just Grant that resisted War's magic, it doesn't matter, he still feels his connection to his own. He uses the flight granted by his Cosmic Armor to hop away from War and sheathes his Omega Blade. Can't rely on magical items, this has become a test of magical fortitude. He draws on the mana in his Energy Sphere and casts Shadesword (22 PPE | PF12 80 | Self | 22 min | 11d6 M.D. Failed Save vs Magic has cumulative -2 Strike/Parry for next melee each additional success extends duration 1 melee.)

A bar of shadow extends from his hand, the shadow weakened as if it were in bright sun despite the dark cloud of anti magic above. Grant flies back to War's rear and begins weakening War in his own way while the rest of the team battles with blade or claw. He targets War's head to disrupt any further spell casting.

  • The Flame Wind Dragon can seemingly cause himself to burst into flames in a manner similar to the psychic Burster or Elemental Fusionist. Unlike them, the Dragon Hatchling's own scales are actually burning, even though this does no damage to the Flame Wind (this is just a natural part of the dragon's metabolism). Because the Flame Wind is actually on fire, anything he is carrying is damaged by his own raging flames and he will ignite anything he touches, such as carpeting, drapes, paper, wood, dry grass, etc. In combat, the dragon's fiery punch or tail does an extra 2D6 M.D. per strike plus its usual P.S. damage. Leaping on its back or trying to wrestle or entangle the flaming dragon will inflict 4D6 M.D. Every 4 seconds (or 2D4x10+10 M.D. per melee round). The flames can be maintained for (5 minutes/20 melee rounds) (+1 minute per level of experience), before the dragon Hatchling must rest for at least ten minutes to regenerate his flaming scales (duration is 10x longer for adults).

"Oh no." Big Red mumbles under his dragon's breath as he watches all of the enchantments he just invoked get revoked. "Hit him hard! His armor's gone too! He's got no magic!" With a loud roar, he swoops back in and continues scorching War in an attempt to cook him inside of that mech he's got on.

Ronith has seen enough anti-magic clouds to recognize the effect when it cancels his magical effects. With a snort he twirls Skyrender as his cosmic armor vanishes as well as his illusory duplicates and nightmarish speed. He must be getting worried. Ronith thinks with a scowl as he sheathes his blades. Then he sees War's challenge, and the scowl changes to a smirk. If you think I need magic to kill you, demon, think again. In a flash, Ronith takes off towards his opponent to confront him in the thick of the anti-magic cloud. Apparently unarmed. Ronith waits until he can get in close, then he leaps as high atop War's legs or chest as he can get and summons a pair of psi-swords. Cognizant of the loss of his magical protection, Ronith fights defensively but maintains his basic strategy from before- hit fast, stay mobile, and concentrate on drawing War's attention. To that end, he'll start throwing out some taunts. "Magical trickery, demon? Not exactly what I suspected from one named 'War.' I confess, I would not have thought you the easier fight out of the emaciated one and the diseased one. At this rate I expect Death to keel over from a strong breeze." Zoe, wherever you are now I hope you're smiling.

Caidyn doesn't hesitate to refocus their fire on the monster that is War, the black cloud of smoke not deterring them. Caidyn had learned long ago the fallacy of forming emotional attachments to those they worked with. Any given day on the Pleasure Islands, a Pleasurer could vanish and no one would bat an eye. As a matter of fact, I guess that's what happened to me. Caidyn considers briefly how they were simply plucked from the islands and ended up dimensions away. Everything material in the world, including the people you meet along the way, are nothing but brief stops. The chance any one of them would remember another is infinitesimally small, unless they gain something from it. Caidyn considers as Starshot smiles beneath the Ironwing. Couldn't have put it better, toots. Let's go kill us a monster. We take this one down, Vicious isn't far behind. Starshot states internally as Caidyn releases a breathe and nods. If we can take down something as mighty as War, Vicious will finally meet their end too. And we'll finally be free. Caidyn affirms. Then maybe we can bend Vicious over for a chance. Stardust fantasizes about their own trauma while the other two wince at the thought. Eh, I'd rather shove a nuke up his ass. Starshot counters. Or drop him into a black hole. Caidyn continues as the trio of personalities flies towards War.

Starshot feels unaffected by the suppressing magic of the dark cloud and barrels in to reinforce the Heroes.
"Starshot to any remaining Dawn Patrol; focus fire on War! Need make some breathing room for the Heroes." Starshot calls over the Dawn Patrol frequency. "And watch out for any remaining Splurgoth fighters!" Starshot adds as they barrel towards war, unleashing their 3rd of 4 volleys of mini missiles towards the monster. Come on, come on, come on. Starshot curses as the mini-missiles streak towards War. Starshot will follow up with their Dragon Stomper and link up with the Heroes over their net if possible. "Heroes, Starshot from Dawn Patrol; enemy support is down. Just need to blast the big guy into orbit. Moving to flank." Starshot radios to the Heroes.

Contrary to what might be considered the safer route, the sight of the Anti-Magic Cloud engulfing them doesn't dissuade the Heroes for Hire, nor Stardust who barrels towards War with the last air support handled. Ronith steels his mind and barrels towards War with a taunting remark about Death. Ronith feels the dampening affect as he charges War. Lilith and Grant focus their minds and resist the Cloud's ability to completely negate their magic and manage to retain their effects. Gloriosa feels the full dampening effect from the Cloud, though fortunately his innate abilities remain. War's attempt to scramble the Heroes as Pestilence did appears to have failed as the Heroes continue their assault. Ronith could venture a guess these demonic avatars of Armageddon aren't accustomed to such resistance, save maybe Death.

Everyone hears a crackle over the team's radio as Hutch's robotic voice fills in the radio. "Warning, multiple signatures inbound from the northwest. Over twelve moving together. They will arrive in less than sixty seconds. The two Splurgoth fighters have headed that way." Hutch warns. Stardust also receives a near identical warning from Tarikos over their frequency. Ronith slices into War, the actual manifestation nearly fully exposed through the debris of the destroyed mech. Grant follows suit after a prayer to the Three, then summoning a Shadesword in place of the Omega Blade. Lilith joins in the fray with her inactive BattleFury Blade. Gloriosa and Stardust barrel in with ranged splash damage washing over War.

War retaliates with a sweeping series of multi-laser blasts from his shoulders that arc across the battlefield. The first blast aimed at Grant who is unable to deflect it as it splashes across his cosmic armor.[-48 MDC] The second is aimed towards Ronith who narrowly dodges it however Stardust is less fortunate as they feel the impact on their Ironwing. [-28 M.D.C. to Main Body.] War levels his right arm which Ronith, Gloriosa and Lilith can see appears to be the business end of an otherwordly cannon that War fires right at Ronith, his taunt successfully keeping him as the primary target. The cannon glows red and lobs an intense looking ball of molten fire that splashes outward. A second series of laser blasts erupt from War that manages to impact Ronith heavily on what Ronith can only attribute to sheer luck on War's part. [-76 M.D.C. to Cyber-Armor or personal MDC?]

What are your intentions?

"Damn it!" Starshot curses inside their mech as they fly back around, the laser sweep of lasers splashing across their armor as Starshot looks back at War with a glare. "This just got paid off, asshole!" Starshot shouts in their mech, prompting Stardust and Caidyn to laugh internally as Starshot continues firing the Dragon Stopper with more fury. "We gotta take out War NOW! He's desperate! We won't have another chance like this if his buddies show up." Starshot calls out over the radio, urging the Dawn Patrol and Heroes for Hire to press the attack despite the warning.

You tell 'em, sugar. This hunk of metal is our favorite... tool. Stardust coos internally as Caidyn internally rolls their eye in annoyance. One of you wants to blow everything up, the other wants to f*ck everything... certainly makes the days more entertaining. Caidyn playfully bemoans. You know you love us, toots. Stardust playfully retorts. Both of you shut up! We got a PITA to deal with! Starshot finally snaps, somewhere around their 4th or 5th Dragon Stopper shot.

Hopefully I've struck War enough times to begin slowing his reaction time. Grant thinks as he dances around War strike with his shadesword. Zigging instead of Zagging Grant feels the strain on his weakened Cosmic Armor. as one of War's attacks lands One or maybe two hits at this rate and the spell will be broken. His shadesword licks out, snicker snack as he sees Sir Ronith hit without the magical protection he had cast upon him earlier. Unsure of what protections Sir Ronith may have available, Grant casts one of the few protect magics that can be cast at range, Armor Bizarre (15 PPE | 5.5 min | 30' | 82 M.D.C., -1 Initiative to all enemies, HF 14 each round to enemies) upon Sir Ronith. If he sees any of his other teammates in melee actually take damage, he will cast the spell upon them as well.

60 seconds, is Grant's take away from the radio commentary. He only has time to say laconically, "Okay." We've got 30 seconds to get this done, or we will most likely need to retreat. The Lord Magi continues to attack War from behind as much as possible.

While Lilith's ability to fight is drastically reduced by the Anti-Magic Cloud, the fact that Ronith is holding the attention away from the mutant bee, allowing her to dive right back into the fight, wincing a little as the massive cannon is aimed her team lead's way. He can handle it, I'm sure. He's handled everything else thrown his way thus far.

Aloud, she only offers the brief phrase, "Staying low on the legs" before buzzing back to it, one of her eyes keeping watch for the monster to switch its attention to her.

Applies to all armor worn as well, as it is both an inherit trait and automatically generated field that surrounds the Mystic Knight.

The Mystic Knight is able to feel whether there is a ley line within the area of their sensing abilities, 40 miles (+10 miles).

The knight will automatically feel the sensation of a Rift opening or closing anywhere within 80 miles (+10 miles) of them. Although they cannot tell exactly where this Rift is, the knight knows if it is near or far and whether it is big or small. Note: When actually on a ley line, the Mystic Knight will know exactly where the Rift is located and can sense one where it is, as long as it is on the ley line or a connecting line.

: The expenditure of magic in the form of a spell, Rifting, or Techno-Wizardy can be felt, if not seen, up to 400' (+100') away. The Mystic Knight will not know the location nor be able to trace it, but they will feel its energy and know that magic is being used in the area of their sensing range. Note: This does not include the use of psionic powers.
Sixth Sense
The Sixth Sense is a power that gives the psychic a precognitive flash of imminent danger to themself or somebody near them (within 90'). The character will not know what the danger is or where it will come from, nor who it will be directed at when in a group. All they know is that something life threatening will happen within the next 60 seconds! The Sixth Sense is triggered automatically, without the consent of the psychic, whenever their life is in great peril or the life of somebody they greatly care about (friend, partner, loved one, etc.). The Sixth Sense is only triggered by an unexpected, life threatening event (a trap or ambush is within 90' or a flash flood is rushing their way) which is already set into motion and will happen any second. The power can not be called upon at will to sense for traps or ambush. Instead, it works like an automatic reflex. If the character has used all their I.S.P. the Sixth Sense is temporarily rendered inoperative.
  • Range: 90'
  • Duration: Until the danger passes or happens. Bonuses apply only to the first round of the attack from the source of the sensed danger.
  • I.S.P.: 2
  • Saving Throw: None.
  • Bonuses: The sudden flash of insight provides the following bonuses. All bonuses apply only to the first, initial melee when the attack/danger occurs. Bonuses are lost in subsequent melee rounds after the danger is revealed. +6 on initiative roll, +2 to parry, +3 to dodge, and the character can not be surprised by a sneak attack from behind.

Ronith grits his teeth as War overloads the force field on his EBA (and scratches the paint underneath), but continues the assault. He has the same ego as all the other gods of darkness. Easy to prick, easy to provoke. Keep it up, old man. Hopefully your armor will hold up longer than the demon’s luck. The cyber-knight doesn’t flinch when Grant’s armor bizarre goes over him, but as he continues to dance about the horseman Ronith will give his second a nod of thanks if he has the chance. He otherwise keeps his attention focused on his foe, and hopes to accomplish the reverse as well. ”Such a mighty demon-king. Co-opting mortal technology and still can’t do more than scratch the paint on my armor. Are you even trying anymore, or are your sensors fogged up with human stench and detritus?” Ronith will continue to taunt, dash, and slash around War; he will look for any vulnerable areas such as sensors/head, weapons, and knees in the hopes of keeping War off-balance physically as well as emotionally.

Gloriosa flies a beeline straight to the top of War. Yelling at the top of the mech where one would assume a set of ears would be, he says "That was a present from my best friend and you ruined it! Eat fire, chromedome!" After some very stylized, very dated threats, Gloriosa unleashes a torrent of flames from his mouth. Washing over War's helmet, Gloriosa hopes to take his vision while doing some damage.

Environmental Conditions: Outside temp; 34*C (89*F)
Ley Line/Nexus Presence: No Ley Line or Nexus within range.
Combat Round: 7
Ronith's taunts are met with a powerful blow from War that sends the Cyber-knight staggering back [Nat 1 dodge, -43 M.D.C. from EBA or Cyber-Armor; hit happens before Armor Bizaar] Lilith retaliates so strongly that her blade gets temporarily lodged in War's leg. Ronith and Grant both move to engage and land succesful strikes, moving faster inbetween the slower and heavy strikes of War. Grant spots Ronith take the hit and casts Armor Bizaar on him. Gloriosa calls out for War to eat fire and as the dragon builds for a flame breathe attack, Gloriosa suddenly coughs, mid air and recoils slightly in the air, wings coiled. Grant and Lilith both hear the bellowing cough Gloriosa feels the failed flame breathe singeing his throat [-15 M.D.C. to personal M.D.C.] However, Gloriosa is able to recover and initiate another flame breathe attack that splashes on War's armored body.

Stardust joins the fray leading the remaining survivors of the Dawn Patrol, two ground power armors and their Ironwing. Swooping in, Stardust's Dragon Stopper jams on the first shot, but they are able to recover quickly and unload on War with the other two opening fire. One of the ground PAs moves in for melee with the others, a large energy like sword extending from the power armor's right arm. The other ground PA levels a railgun and works in tandem with those engaging war. Both the Heroes and Dawn Patrol realize since the AMC that the Splurgoth fighters have disengaged completely. Stardust spotted them heading in the direction of the incoming reinforcements that Tarikos warned about.

Though a few of the heroes prove to be faster than War, many of the others do not. War, refocuses from the taunting Cyberknight to other targets. War fires a laser sweep from his shoulder-mounted cannons towards Grant who attempts to use Targeted Deflection however ends up moving into the blast instead [Nat 1 Parry/Dodge; 38 M.D.C. to Cosmic Armor]. The Heroes and Dawn Patrol aren't dissuaded though and continue the assault on War. War struggles to make another connection to any of the nearby targets as the Heroes and Dawn Patrol continue chipping away at his durability. Grant, Lilith and Stardust seeing some effective and lasting damage on the monstrosity that is War. Stardust can actually see damaged pieces of War's metallic body repairing itself.

What are your intentions?
GM Note: Ronith please confirm if the strike hits EBA or CA ;; Grant please verify the new max of half-powered Cosmic Armor.

Skybunker

Cosmic Armor down to 135 M.D.C.

He hasn't cast any additional magic since the cloud appeared. Can I use that to my advantage? With only seconds to think, he comes up with nothing as he continues to slash with the shadesword. I can still cast magic, but it's weakened. He slashes a few more times, Magic Net? He's big, but it may still work. He casts Magic Net (7 PPE | BOM 99 | Dodge 16 or higher | 11 min | 2 rounds to cut with M.D. weapons from the outside, those caught are helpless.)

If it works, Grant yells and says mentally to Sir Ronith, "Quickly, strike the head!" Quickly, strike the head!

If it doesn't work, Grant continues to strike with the shadesword, from behind when possible to strike him critically.
If War runs out of actions (and therefore can no longer dodge) before Grant, Grant will attempt to cast Magic Net a second time

At the point that Grant casts Armor Bizarre on himself, he will use his remaining actions to begin casting Impervious to Energy (4 actions | 20 PPE | BOM 113 | Self | 11 min)

OOC Comments
Signature updated to reflect damage to EBA- it’s down to about half.
Ronith staggers back under the massive hit and shakes himself. Gotta move faster, old man. You can’t take too many hits like that. But my defenses just need to hold up longer than War’s. Odin protect me. Ronith will continue his attacks (both physical and emotional) on the Horseman- if he hears Grant’s summons he will dispel one psi-sword and begin leap-climbing up War’s body so as to savage the head from close range. Either way, he will continue to keep dancing about War while taunting him in the hopes of drawing more attacks. ”What kind of a demon lord are you, anyway? There are barely a dozen mortals here- most of them humans! I thought your ilk was supposed to be harbingers of Armageddon- I’ve seen worse apocalypses in a toilet! What’s wrong, big man? Getting frustrated that you can’t kill one measly elf?” Cognizant of the effect he’s going for with his taunts, Ronith will continue to fight defensively.

Lilith swears when her sword gets stuck, but continues her assault. She catches War shifting aim to Grant, keeping a mental note that she may be next in line for an attack or two. Without the Battle Frenzy, I don't have nearly the armor they all do. Not that that keeps her from being aggressive. Her instincts scream at her to keep fighting even as it drags on. "Just stay on those two a bit longer," she mutters to herself, a touch of anxiety in her voice as she focuses her strikes further, aiming blow after blow at the thing's left leg.

Combat Post

Initiative: 1d20+6: [5]+6 = 11
APM: 9
Ignores any energy-based attacks directed her way (no damage/half damage if magical)

Action 1: Strike with sword at war's left leg. Strike: 1d20+9: [8]+9 = 17 ; Damage: 6d6+4: [1, 1, 1, 6, 5, 2]+4 = 20 M.D.

Action 2: Another sword strike to the same place. Strike: 1d20+9: [6]+9 = 15 ; Damage: 6d6+4: [5, 4, 4, 1, 1, 5]+4 = 24 M.D.

Action 3: Another attack! Strike: 1d20+9: [4]+9 = 13 ; Damage: 6d6+4: [4, 3, 3, 1, 2, 4]+4 = 21 M.D.

Action 4: Another attack! Strike: 1d20+9: [18]+9 = 27 ; Damage: 6d6+4: [4, 3, 6, 2, 6, 4]+4 = 29 M.D.

Action 5: Another attack! Strike: 1d20+9: [10]+9 = 19 ; Damage: 6d6+4: [3, 5, 3, 1, 5, 2]+4 = 23 M.D.

Action 6: Another attack! Strike: 1d20+9: [8]+9 = 17 ; Damage: 6d6+4: [2, 4, 3, 1, 3, 2]+4 = 19 M.D.

Action 7: Another sword strike. Strike: 1d20+9: [8]+9 = 17 ; Damage: 6d6+4: [5, 4, 2, 2, 1, 4]+4 = 22 M.D.

Action 8: Reserved for dodge. Dodge: 1d20+9: [2]+9 = 11

Action 9: Reserved for dodge. Dodge: 1d20+9: [6]+9 = 15

Auto-Parries: 1d20+12: [8]+12 = 20 ; 1d20+12: [9]+12 = 21 ; 1d20+12: [6]+12 = 18 ; 1d20+12: [5]+12 = 17 ; 1d20+12: [10]+12 = 22 ; 1d20+12: [16]+12 = 28 ; 1d20+12: [5]+12 = 17 ; 1d20+12: [6]+12 = 18 ; 1d20+12: [16]+12 = 28 - If Magical Shield drops, parry bonus is +11.

Contingency: Should her Magical Shield and Main Body go down, and no Armor Bizarre is cast on her, Lilith will sacrifice action 7 for another dodge. Dodge: 1d20+9: [4]+9 = 13

Flaming Dagger: 2D6 M.D.; lasts 6 minutes per activation.
Constant Effects
Gives the character the ability to hear very faint sounds (light footsteps, small animals breathing). The character can also overhear conversation at a much greater distance than is normally possible. + 1 on initiative.

Can see double the usual distance and detail of normal human vision.

Range: 1,000'; must be starlight or some other light source available. If in a completely blacked out area, a cave for example, nothing will be visible.

The Mystic Knight is impervious to lasers, ion blasts, particle beams, plasma bolts, electricity, fire, heat and radiation.
Magically created energy and ley line storms inflict half damage.
Rune weapons, holy weapons, and most magical weapons of all kinds do full damage. Likewise, ordinary swords, clubs, spears, etc., as well as bullets, arrows, Vibro-Blades, thrown rocks, falls, punches and most kinetic based attacks, do full damage.
Applies to all armor worn as well, as it is both an inherit trait and automatically generated field that surrounds the Mystic Knight.

The Mystic Knight is able to feel whether there is a ley line within the area of their sensing abilities, 40 miles (+10 miles).

The knight will automatically feel the sensation of a Rift opening or closing anywhere within 80 miles (+10 miles) of them. Although they cannot tell exactly where this Rift is, the knight knows if it is near or far and whether it is big or small. Note: When actually on a ley line, the Mystic Knight will know exactly where the Rift is located and can sense one where it is, as long as it is on the ley line or a connecting line.

: The expenditure of magic in the form of a spell, Rifting, or Techno-Wizardy can be felt, if not seen, up to 400' (+100') away. The Mystic Knight will not know the location nor be able to trace it, but they will feel its energy and know that magic is being used in the area of their sensing range. Note: This does not include the use of psionic powers.
Sixth Sense
The Sixth Sense is a power that gives the psychic a precognitive flash of imminent danger to themself or somebody near them (within 90'). The character will not know what the danger is or where it will come from, nor who it will be directed at when in a group. All they know is that something life threatening will happen within the next 60 seconds! The Sixth Sense is triggered automatically, without the consent of the psychic, whenever their life is in great peril or the life of somebody they greatly care about (friend, partner, loved one, etc.). The Sixth Sense is only triggered by an unexpected, life threatening event (a trap or ambush is within 90' or a flash flood is rushing their way) which is already set into motion and will happen any second. The power can not be called upon at will to sense for traps or ambush. Instead, it works like an automatic reflex. If the character has used all their I.S.P. the Sixth Sense is temporarily rendered inoperative.
  • Range: 90'
  • Duration: Until the danger passes or happens. Bonuses apply only to the first round of the attack from the source of the sensed danger.
  • I.S.P.: 2
  • Saving Throw: None.
  • Bonuses: The sudden flash of insight provides the following bonuses. All bonuses apply only to the first, initial melee when the attack/danger occurs. Bonuses are lost in subsequent melee rounds after the danger is revealed. +6 on initiative roll, +2 to parry, +3 to dodge, and the character can not be surprised by a sneak attack from behind.
