Across the arena from Hack, a man in full officer's attire, with clear underarmor and clothing. Two black gloves cover his hands, one finger showing a scalpel, another a needle. The man smiles so self-confident and assured. This was a student of Terric who exceeded his master in sheer brutality, and unlike Terric's crises of conscience this man, Vander, has completely eviscerated his conscience. He smiles and says, "Feeling that rush, aren't you?" Hack sees in one second the most horrible thing: Vander's knowledge of Hack's condition.

Hack advances forward. But as he steps forward, a mine detonates... and Hack sees that, intermingled with the sand, are explosive crystal packets. Hack is thrown helplessly into the air. Three robots step from behind Vander, one tall and lanky, one short and small, and one wide and broad. Shi's actual turn. (Hack goes much later than Shi or Ogee.)

shi enters the fray flattening with her emmence body, as many of vander's robots, ans well as vander himself if possible, with the Fury of an overprotective wolf defending her cubs, ogee on the otherhand, uses some necromantic juju and attempts to rip the bones out of vanders body

Shi does so successfully, crashing through before Vander has an opportunity to form a large shield. Each, however, has a personal shield. She has more turn but Ogee does not go next.

okay, shi is going to burn fire the flak cannon and concentrate it on them, ogee will do what i said on his turn hack is gonna try to mindjack into whatever is releasing that vapor on his turn, then shut it off
ADMIN EDIT: hack is in a tate of pure hatred and fury, he will draw out destruction and timing his swing send the thin robot flying

Shi blasts flak cannons repeatedly... but now a glowing white shield protects them.
The broad robot charges at Shi and stabs into Shi's head. Shi begins to slow down and become intimately aware of her breath. More toxins. Worse, the toxins designed for Hack now begin to affect her too.
The thin robot begins to build up an intense field around it of... something, a corona of rippling space. Suddenly it rockets along, cutting along Shi's side and strike at Hack. Hack despite his near-crippled nature actually has a chance to respond, though Shi is greviously armed.

okay each ones turn shi, assault AT fields (if that is what they are)otherwise, fly about and Las gun the bastards ogee, continuews with the necromantic juju hack, who is in a state of the purest hatresd he has ever felt, takes out destruction (though not death) in two hands and attacks

Post by Frederic Bourgault-Christie on Feb 25, 2006 19:44:11 GMT -5
When I say Hack has an opportunity to respond, I am implying only Hack. Those aren't AT fields though Shi's skills are applicable, but she only attacks when it's her turn, which it is not. Ogee has yet to go as well. And I meant Hack can respond to the incoming blade attack, not his actual turn.
Also: When you forget something for a post, append it through the Edit command that is right above the post. Double-posting is a no-no.

sorry
when i say each characterers action like that it means that is what they'll do on their turn, they do not act simultaneously

No, no problem, but do remember that by the time it actually does come to your turn the strategic situation may have changed so I don't even hold you to those brainstorms (well, I might on occasion do it for expediency and give you the benefit of the doubt or something). In addition, unless I'm for some reason not lazy, I go by the DIO of things so all minions and people got at the same time.
So how does Hack respond to the Space Jackknife?

Despite the intense power of the incoming assault, Hack manages to stick his chainsaw in the incoming path of the blade. The robot tries to reorient but seems to believe that its raw velocity will knock the blade out of Hack's hand. This ends up not being remotely the case, as a giant gash is cut into the creature's side, and the shove causes it to be thrown back like a baseball. The attack takes something out of Hack and his muscles ache, but he is better off than Shi or this robot.
Ogee, finally. In addition, quite suddenly, owing to events occuring elsewhere, a red shadow seems to elongate below you. A ki-based telepathic message says to you, "I am your retainer. Do with me as you wish." Hack knows almost instinctively that this is a projection of a powerful and ancient shinobi-like warrior with manipulation over shadows (particularly over unorthodox shadows such as the "red shadow" that comes out of the opposite direction of the light source), massive cloning or Kagebunshin abilities, blade/theft/killing attacks, etc.
OOG: I just remembered, you had a friend, Slash, who you said may join. Is he still grounded or what not?

nah he's got other things, slavaging his relationship with his girlfriend, stuff like that, although if i'm correct on roleplay, slash is about as horny as hack is violent. thing is if theese two fight back to back, no matter the odds that they are against, the fight almost seems horribley one sided, because each character compensates fo the others flaws in combat, it'sf a berserker/sharpshooter matchup.
anyway on to the battle, ogee, finally will start up a sort of vampiric attack thing for Hack and Shi

Ah, okay. I do hope he shows.
Eeks. Ogee takes in some of the toxin himself and is shocked into losing his turn entirely. Red Shadow Ninja?

lets see, if he can kiss of the dragon on vander incase you don't know what that is, pointy object+area where skull and spine meet effect instantaneous paralysis while pointy object is in body and then death upon it's removal the death is quite interesting, the subject bleeds from every hole in the body simultaneously

Bear in mind: The physiology of people like you is VERY strange. They can control organs and bone placement.
The ninja rushes along the ground, and you continue to have respect for his skill and strength as he smashes past Vander's Terric-inspired field and delivers the killing blow... and Terric just laughs. A spirit of grasping spider claws comes out of his jittering body and throws the ninja off.

F2 power attack + destruction

Post by Frederic Bourgault-Christie on May 17, 2006 3:45:13 GMT -5
Hack charges forward beautifully, his motions one aesthetic whole, but the poison is so intense that despite his incredible valor and valiance the robot takes advantage of the reduced accuracy from the F2 Power Attack and uses its fingers to stop the chainsaw completely, which also causes Hack to feel a powerful recoil...
Vander smiles and says, "You're not the only one who happens to know about anatomical killing blows." One of his trademarks, a long monofilament that projects an energy drill, snakes along, moving up and down, then plunges at Hack's liver. He clearly seeks to eliminate Hack's poison resistance. Hack has no opportunity to parry, but the blow is so poorly performed that it fails (he clearly underestimates how alien Hack's training has made him)... but the damage is quite severe and not remotely superficial.
The small and short robot goes for a disarming shot, but luckily Hack does not even get close to being disarmed. However, the bullet is just another bit of damage.
Shi once more.

shi gets protective, coiling around hack she attempts to break the cable, then (if time allows) flak cannon into the two robots

Post by Frederic Bourgault-Christie on May 17, 2006 22:07:23 GMT -5
Shi and the cable wrestle for domination and after many opposed rounds do not break each other. Vander is unable to disconnect, so through proxy he and Shi are tug-of-warring. Luckily, time does allow, but there are three robots.

Post by Frederic Bourgault-Christie on May 18, 2006 18:15:09 GMT -5
The most damaged one is the blade one that did the space warp. The other two are able to find 'cover' quickly by using their shields and Merits deftly, but the flak still cuts in. The ricochet only harms others, and though Vander's Spirit of Pain deflects it, it does take something out of his defense.
More turn.

The bladed robot hunches over, trying desperately to maintain its life by rerouting transmitters and devices. The gas makes Hack's perceptions slow as he sees the laser warm and the flak cannon move back, the individual laser and shot coming through the air, cutting through the gas, tearing apart the chest of the robot. It falls over, jittering helplessly. (FN: RobSur 300).
Shi, being partially biological, is now the victim alongside Hack of an obvious drug trick, enhancing the intensity of the poison by adding a hallucinogen. Hack luckily keeps it from effecting his judgment, but Shi now is delirious...
Ogee.
