[Nazi Earth: Day 7] [You're at the arena, where you're having deathmatches with cell 5. People are called in in teams of 4 to fight, and only one group walks away alive. Josh and Sun have already fought, along with Tina Moretti and a violent Irishman, William McCreevy.] [There's been a few fights since, and numerous deaths.] [Action!] * Billie has made sure Sun is okay, and presuming she's feeling better, she's getting her bearings again. "Hey, Raxa?" [Sun is trying not to walk, on account of being injured. Much as Josh was.] * Logan (who was here the whole time honestly) has taken the time to create himself a flak vest under his prison uniform, and pulls on a pair of reinforced fingerless gloves. * Raxa looks over at Billie from near Josh, where she was. "Mmm?" ( By the way, did I give you guys CP after Lendria? ) (Yeah, 1.) (You said it was next to nothing because we didn't do much, IIRC.) Did you... I mean, did you just heal Josh? ( Yah, that's what I thought. Thanks ) (Sure. ^^) * Raxa half-smiles. "Yes. Slightly, anyway." * Josh also looks up at Billie. "It beats the hell out of going around with my arm in sling." * Billie nods, clearly thinking about that. (Logan now has 12 armor) [There's a beep as the next match is called. The monitor shows the next fighters. By some coincidence, it just happens to be you guys, sans Yoshiko and Josh.] (And snazzy looking gloves, to boot!) ( nrn ) (Hey Brett, if I buff people now, will it still be active when they go fight?) * Logan glances over at Chess. He smiles thinly at the tonfa. "Those bully sticks bring back some fond memories. You know your way around 'em?" * Billie raises an eyebrow at that. "Well, I know you guys got my back." (Also, I apologize pre-emptively for any awful accent. I just finished watching two hours of "Life On Mars" and suddenly Logan has a Cockney accent.) * Chess takes a deep breath and twirls her tonfa around once. "A bit. Doubling up on weaponry's kind of a family tradition. Not as much training as I would've liked, but..." * Josh points a finger at Raxa. "No coming back more beat up than I was, alright?" * Raxa laughs slightly and waves her fingers at him. "We'll see, boy." ( Back ) ( I spelled brb wrong ) (So you did!) "Well, no time like the present, eh?" He grins. "I'm planning on hiding behind Raxa as much as possible, myself." ( How long do your buffs last? ) * Billie rolls her eyes. "Speak for yourself." (*chuckles* Oh, so that's what you meant by that. I was wondering. nrn. Indeed.) ("One scene" or as long as you want them to whichever comes first.) ( Then I'm going to say no, Josh has to be present for them to work. ) (Hokay) (boo urns.) [Sun looks to Billie morbidly. "Please survive."] (Kevin says he's almost home.) [Fatima is frowning at the monitor. "I don't recognize anyone from the other team."] * Josh smirks. "That goes for the rest of you too I'm the only one who's gonna slack off 'cause I got hurt!" * Chess 's mouth works silently for a second before she tells Logan carefully, "I can see -why- you'd want to do that, but I can't help but think that's pretty lame." ( Oooookay. ) * Billie looks back at Sun and smiles slightly, then gives her hand a squeeze. "I'll do my best, promise." ( Let's get Josh into #Josh for the moment. ) ( Til I find out what else to do with him :X ) (Well, Kevin will be home soon, so at least he'll have someone to talk to!) (Woo color commentary from the Danmaku section!) ( Yeah ) [The guards enter with their assault weapons. It's a hint!] * Billie goes, giving Sun a parting wave. She doesn't like getting shot. * Logan bursts out laughing. "I like you, Chess. I hope we both survive this." He pats her on the shoulder, with a fingerless leather glove that appears to have barbs of metal protruding fro the knuckles. For all his talk of hiding, he looks more centered and calm than before. ( Gimme init rolls whilst I set stuff up. ) * Chess heads out, telling Yoshiko and Josh, "We'll be back soon!" 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+5) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 12. 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 14. 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+5) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 9. 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+5) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 13. * Yoshiko has joined #MCDC [You head out into the arena, which hasn't changed at all since Josh's fight. There's a bunch of red and blue squares highlighted, the starting points for each team, putting the two groups about twenty feet apart.] ( Yoshiko, join #Josh ) (Hey guys, what's up?) (Oh, you guys got a match without me? :( ) (You weren't here!) (It's 4 on 4 anyway) (Aww, okay.) (Maybe you'll get to go with Fatima.) [There's also the four pillars in the area. Aside from that, the room is pretty featureless, though the cage is likely electrified. A floating bot waits patiently in the upper middle of the room.] * Billie steps into the correct starting area and tries to size up the other team. [There's a huge cheer when you enter, though. Or maybe when the other team enters. Either way, the audience is really stoked about this fight.] ( This could take a bit. ) * Logan heads in, cracking his knuckles and grinning darkly over at the other side, getting a read on the other team. (Judge Opponent, for the record.) [The combatants on the other team look the part. The first one you immediately notice is huge. He's got to be about nine feet tall, and obese. Obese to the point that he's wider than Billie, Raxa and Chess standing side by side. Hes hair is tied into a short lock directly on the top of his head that stands straight up. His face is pudgy, and looks Asian.] 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 9 for a result of 16. 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 15. 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 5 for a result of 12. 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 13. (He's the BLOB.) (You can't stop the BLOB.) [The second is a black woman. One who apparently decided she'd fight better without cloths, because all she's wearing is her underwear. Her hair's in dreadlocks that are tied into a ponytail. She's carrying a spear of all things.] * Logan mutters under his breath "Ok, it's only fair that people with bladed weapons or magic take on that monster. I know what happens when the scrawny guy tries to beat up the sumo wrestler." [Actually it's just a spear of wood with a bit of sharp metal at the end.] [The third is another woman, probably part of the reason people were cheering so much, as she's notably attractive. She's got short blond hair, blue eyes, is curvy and has a lot up front. She also seems to favor a double-headed battle axe, which probably cost a ton of points to get.] (So they're hoping she and Raxa end up mud wrestling?) (I'm totally down with that.) (You know, I wouldn't be surprised.) [And the fourth is Wolverine. Ok, not REALLY, but he might as well be. He's styled his hair the same way and has three claws sprouting from his fists. The biggest difference is where Wolverine is only ever calm or angry, this guy has a psychotic look on his face.] ( Maybe I should have named these people. Oopssss. ) * Logan gets a momentary worried look on his face. Under his breath (but loud enough that the others on his team can hear) he starts chanting "Please don't have the regen power, please don't have the regen power..." (You totally did. "The Blob, Underwear chick, the pretty one, and Wolverine.") ( Logan vs. Wolverine? Hmm.... ) (Ok, so the two women probably should have had actual names.) * Chess gives Logan a weird look. "What?" (Yeah.... yeah.) ( Oh, I should probably roll init for them. ) * Logan glances over and grins sheepishly. "That last guy, the one with the claws? He's dressed like a comic book... "hero",,, who has regeneration powers. I'm hoping the similarity is only skin and claws deep." (sorry, replace "is dressed like" with "reminds me of" (Well, they would have names, since we would've seen them. XP) * Chess blinks. "Oh, I think I might actually know what you're talking about. Auntie reads a lot of old comics." ( Actually he's just wearing the prison jumpsuit ) Really? I didn't. "Old--" He pauses. "Yeah, I suppose they are. Kids these days, you know? Never appreciate the classic stuff. It's all Tri-vid holograms and rap music." He sighs. [Order is! Wolverine, Sumo (yeah, it surprised me too >.>), Chess, Blondie, Logan, African, Raxa, Billie] [The bot in the center beeps. "3... 2... 1... Go!"] (/me winces at "African.") ( You rather underwear girl? ) ( Ok, fine. I'll call her dreadlocks ) (Well, maybe she's actually African.) ( Only I'm not sure I spelled Dreadlocks right >.> ) (That looks correct) (go with it.) ( K. ) * Billie rolls her eyes. "Some of us were working on a miracle cure instead, slacker." At 'go', she prepares to get her face beaten in. [Wolverine rushes towards Logan, actually shouting "You're dead, bub!" But his voice is high and nasal; it doesn't sound much like the Marvel character. Anyhow, he makes two attempts at clawing at Logan.] 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+6) and gets 8, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! "I love the smell of a crit in the morning." 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+5) and gets a natural 5 for a result of 10. (it is -1 for the second one, right?) ( I... forget ) ( Like I do every time this comes up :X ) (Yes.) (-1, -3, -6) (0,-1,-3,-6) (Caps at -6) (shit, neither of those was very good. How many DP to harden my skin for (one action) (the scene)?) (I've got to get some use out of my Fortitude aspect, right?) (I took notes so I wouldn't forget. I'm kind of mildly proud of myself.) ( For the whole fight? Uh... You don't have enough. XD ) (Ok, one action then? And does it count as an action to activate?) ( For one attack? 3 DP, on account of the action's already happened. ) ( Normally it would, yes, but you can use it immediately for an increased coss. ) ( cost ) (All right, I'll let it pass for now, keep it in mind for later.) ( Ok ) ( Remind me what I said, though. DP doesn't exactly have any hard fast rules to it. XD ) * Logan steps back, distracted by the guy's awful stereotypical line, and doesn't do a very good job of getting out of the way. [Logan has the misfortune of finding out that this wannabe's claws are functional enough. His armor absorbs some of the impact, but they do penetrate and lightly graze his chest.] (Shave and a haircut, two bits!) "Oy, this is my favorite prison jumper you just popped holes in. I'll have you for that!" * Raxa is giving the labrys-wielding woman a special look over, hands loose as she gets ready to make her move. [Sumo man is next. He yells, "Dosukoi!" and charges.... bounds, really, towards Billie. When he gets close he leaps into the air and curls into a cannon-ball.] 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 11 for a result of 18. [Billie easily steps back and avoids the man as he comes down. Good thing, too, because he literally leaves a small crater in the ground.] Dude, you have GOT to lay off the rice a little. [Chess!] [He responds with, ".... dosukoi." (What does that even mean?) (Since we'd know.) ( As far as I know, nothing. ) (It's a good question1 UNIVERSAL TRANSLATING!) (!) ( It's just a traditional sumo grunt. Unless I'm wrong, in which case someone can correct me. ) (Google says it's...) (A traditional sumo chant/grunt.) ( I thought so. ) (Yup.) * Chess sprints forward at the blonde woman and swings her tonfa forward at her. 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets 20, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "You always hurt the ones you love. I love you very much." (Snap.) (Love you too, Dicey!) (That's a GOOD thing.) (Dicey's not fixed for 4e.) (I need to get ND to update Dicey's script. (3e) (3e, right.) (All the other editions are 4. :( ) ( Chessssssss ) (It's by channel) (Yes what?) (I think it's your turn) (She went.) (She attacked and critted.) (I did, and rolled, and everything.) (She totally swung her tonfa at Blondie) (Oh) ( Oh. I was lagging out. ) (Hah!) (I mean, not 'hah' that you're lagging, 'hah' that it wasn't my fault this time.) [Chess's tonfa hits her right in the face. She spits blood out and growls. "You're going to regret that." Then she spins a full 360 degrees, bringing the axe down towards Chess.] 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 15. [Or maybe not, because Chess is able to get out of the way in time.] [Logan!] Might, might not! * Logan steps sideways and around, deftly grabbing Wolverine's arm from where it stabbed him in the chest and pulling him into a shoulder lock from behind. (Grapple, opposed unarmed rolls, he's at a -2 (if you count the claws as being "hands full")) ( They're not, though. ) (sorry, not opposed, just his normal defense -2) ( They're natural weapons ) (If they're built into his hands, then yeah) (or, you know, at normal) ( You have to make an attack roll too :P ) 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 10 for a result of 17. (I was working on it...) [And Logan gets a hold of Logan!... er... Wolverine.] (This is when having extra actions would be really handy) (Save up your CPs!) 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+4) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 10. (15 whole CPs) (At this rate... *sighs*) * Raxa changes topic to '[Order is! Wolverine, Sumo, Chess, Blondie, Logan, African, Raxa, Billie]' [Raxa hears a whispered "Hello." behind her, just before a spear pops out the lower left side of her stomach. It's bloody and painful, to say the least.] (Shits!) (!) * Billie turns to look at the lady, then frowns. That's *her* thing. [The good news is it doesn't seem to have hit anything important. The bad news is..... blood.] (The good news is blood!) (The good news is also blood.) [Oh yeah, and Dreadlocks moved from over <- there to behind Raxa somehow.] (Telepor!) [Raxa!] (Oh hey look some blood how convenient.) (/me pokepokes Raxa) (I'm talking to Brett, jesus. c.c;) ( I'm almost lagging out and didn't see any of that til just now. ) (Fine, fine. You damn sneaky people who don't do things out in the open.) (I was asking him a power question.) (Fine, fine. You damn people with powers... that you can use out in the open...) (The key is to have a power that's subtle or AWESOME) (/me patpats Zim.) (I prefer the AWESOME category.) (My human from is just a regular human, dammit. All my powers are too awesome to use without people getting suspicious. Too Awesome, that's the problem.) * Raxa gurks at the surprise spear, and then she snarls, her fingers curling as the spray of blood seems to curl around in midair as well, before rushing towards her attacker to try and... well, do whatever blood does when it's apparently alive. "I give you what you wanted to take." 2 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Yoshiko (2 2d6+5) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 11 12. 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Josh (2d6+4) and gets 6, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! "I'm down with that. You know me." (GOOD JOB.) (Oh hey, that rolling twice thing is cool, I should remember that.) 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+7) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 11. [Blood flies out of Raxa's wounds and gets in Dreadlock's eyes and mouth. She coughs and staggers back.] (My turn?) [Oh right, Billie.] [Billie's turn preempted to bring you a football game.] * Billie takes a few steps back and shadowsteps from the shadow of the pillar to the shadow of Dreadsilocks. "Sup, bitch." She wastes no time jumping up from behind and grabbing her, trying to wrestle her to the ground. (Counting on the combined defense penalties of being surprised and getting choked by blood.) (That's a lot of penalties.) 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 3 for a result of 10. (And let me know if that missed.) (But she's... apparently not much of a brawler.) (Ouch.) ( That missed :P ) (Cat got in tree. x.x) (DR) 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 14. (PIPPIN NO) (TREE IS NO) (PIPPIN!) (As long as she doens't try to eat the tinsle tree) [Billie grabs the woman in a wrestling move! I know next to nothing about wrestling, so pick your favorite one! The crowd boos. These aren't the women they want to see wrestling.] (Hahaha.) (Maybe she should come over. We've got plenty of fluid to work with.) (chuckles) [And then we're back to Wolverine, who wastes no time attempting to break Logan's hold.] 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 13. [And, annoyingly enough for Logan, Wolvie slips out of his grasp.] [The Sumo man pulls himself out of his crater, shouts "Dosukoi!" and... tries to slap Raxa.] (Sigh) (All I can see in my head is old man Goron wrestling. Damn you, Zelda!) 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+6) and gets a natural 5 for a result of 11. [And if it's not enough that Raxa got stabbed, she also gets slapped across the face. The crowd cheers, but the sumo man looks almost apologetic. ".... dosukoi."] (This is what I get for creating a character whose only real non-firearm combat abilities are based on grappling.) [Luckily it doesn't hurt much. At least not as much as a spear through the gut.] (Clearly, you need a trigun-gun-thing.) (I do... in m-form) [Chess is next!] * Chess spins around and sends her foot flying up at the woman in a high kick. 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 9 for a result of 17. ( When the defender and attacker roll the same number, defender wins? ) (Let me see.) (Attacker wins in tie.) (I think Attacker wins) (Attacker.) (Just checked.) ( Oh. ) (Chess kicks high!) [The blond woman almost, but doesn't quite, avoid the attack. Chess kicks her in the collar bone, which sounds as painful as it looks.] ( And I lost track of damages ) * Logan sighs. "The cop shows never show that part. Oh well, I suppose it's to be fisticuffs then." He throws a barbed right hook at Wolverine's face. (Crap, sorry, didn't mean to press enter yet) (That's what Logan does... as soon as Blondie does her thing.) ( Chess needs a quick combat sheet ) (Yes, crap. I meant to do that ages ago.) ( Unarmed damage is what, just ACV or ACV + multiplier? ) (Pure unarmed damage is ACV.) ( Ok. ) (Since it's a Weapon Level 0 attack.) (If you have CT that give it higher level, more damage!) (Unless you have the Brutal thing) (Unless you have certain combat techniquews, yeah.) (-w) (Yeah, what Billie and Raxa said) (Billie is channeling Elmer Fudd.) (Ha ha.) [Anyway, the woman staggers back a step, then goes after Chess with her axe.] 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 12. [Chess is unable to avoid the axe this time around, and ouch. It cuts a good sized gash in her left shoulder. The woman grins. "Told you."] [Logan!] * Chess drops the tonfa in her left hand from surprise and pain. "Fuck, fuck." * Logan sighs (For real this time). "The cop shows never show that part. Oh well, I suppose it's to be fisticuffs then." He throws a barbed right hook at Wolverine's face. 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 13. [And Logan hits him right in the face, puncturing his cheek. He spits out blood. But he still grins. "Don't matter, bub," he says in his high-pitched-non-Wolverineish voice. "See, I'm a mutant with super healing powers. You ain't never gonna keep me down."] [Dreadlocks!] * Logan curses under his breath. "Dammit all, that's just not fair." He locks eyes with Wolverine. "You know that's really unfair, right? The claws AND the regen? Don't tell me: your bones are coated in Ademantium too, right?" (Never gonna give you up! Never gonna let you down!) (She has a -3 to attack!) ["No, bub. They took the Adamantium out. But these claws are still the best at what they do."] (Plus... whatever Raxa did.) ( Oh, I forgot about that. ) 2d6+10 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+10) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 16. (Right, so actually a 19.) [The woman is suddenly not in Billie's grasp anymore, she's standing over her, thrusting the spear downward.] "They took it OUT?!" Logan looks momentarily horrified. "That must have sucked. Damn, I'm sorry man. Jesus." 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 15. [Billie easily avoids the spear, though.] [Raxa!] * Billie rolls away and crouches, facing Dreadsilocks. "Yeah, like I didn't see that coming." * Raxa drags her fingers in the blood on her stomach and then lashes out with her fist and a snarl to punch the sumo guy. "If that was an apology, then do not do it again!" 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+7) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 15. ["It hurt a lot," confirms Wolverine, "But at least now I can't be beaten by someone with magnetic powers."] ( they're having quite a long conversation between bouts of killing each other. ) * Chess calls out, not looking away from Blondie, "Logan, he's just a genemodded fanboy! Save your sympathy!" ( He's quite possibly the coolest NPC in this game yet. XD Except for Jack Frost. ) (Logan is all about the combat banter) (Jaguar Fist, obv.) (HEE HO!) (But I'll hold off until one of us acts again) ( All y'all gotta do better with combat sheets :x ) (What, you have mine.) (It's on the sheet!) ( Ah, so I see. ) (First attack.) (My combat sheet is very simple!) [Raxa punches! Flab. Lots of flab. It bruises the sumo man, but... there's a lot of sumo to go around. ] [Billie!] * Billie tenses, then springs forward, trying to grab the spear from Deadsilocks. 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+6) and gets 18, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "You always hurt the ones you love. I love you very much." (Sweet!) ( That's um.... There's rules for that :x ) (Yes, I'm following them.) ( Somewhere... ) (She gets a TN 12 body roll to hang on to the spear. Minus whatever Raxa did and whatever the crit success does.) (Assuming she failed her defense.) (pg 152) [Billie achieves a spear.] (Now all I need is a magic helmet!) [Wolvie attacks Logan again, striking with both claws. "Anyway, bub. I gotta finish you off quick so I can get back to the institute. Summers is tryin' ta steal my girl."] 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+6) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 13. ( It's 2 rolls. ) (so it is) 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+5) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 13. [Logan manages to avoid the first strike, but is unprepared for the follow up, which cuts another gash through his armor. At the same time, Logan notices the hole in Wolvie's cheek slowly closing.] [The Sumo man says, "Dosukoi!" And attempts to fall on Raxa.] "I hear ya, but you'll understand -- ooff, that smarts -- if I don't just sit back and let you slice me up. I've got a girl back home too, you know." He notices the cheek. "Damn, look at it go, that's some trick." 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+6) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 13. ["'S part of what makes me the best there is at what I do, bub."] [Raxa avoids the sumo man as he creates another imprint on the ground.] [Chess!] * Raxa hops back, blood still on her fingers. She grins slightly as she licks one of them. "It is not so even when you haven't surprised me." [The sumo man, face down on the ground, gives a muffled "dffkff."] * Chess tries to keep her focus on Blondie and not any of her teammates as she lashes out with the tonfa in her right hand. 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 16. [And Chess strikes her again, wearing her down slowly but surely. She retaliates with a sudden movement, attempting to hit Chess with the butt of the axe.] 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 10 for a result of 18. ( That's a def roll :P ) (Yes, my attack and defense have the same values.) ( I think I was lagging out again ) [Anyhow, Chess avoids the axe! Good thing, too, 'cause the last hit did a serious number on her. The woman scowls. "Slippery little brat."] [Logan!] * Logan grabs Wolverine's wrist, still stuck in his armor, and quickly twists it around and under, driving him to his knees with a wrist breaker lock, and then stepping behind him again. "So, I had this idea. It's actually quite an interesting one, something your comment about Magneto reminded me of." 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 11 for a result of 18. (I don't suppose I get a bonus on his escape roll for such an awesome grapple roll?) ( Nope :P ) (Oh well.) [But Logan does succeed, and therefore manages to do what he said he did.] [Then it's Dreadlock's turn, and she immediately tries to grab her spear back!] [From Billie!] 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 15. (Sorry, Dre was talking to me.) [And she does not do it.] [Raxa!] * Raxa steps off of the poor comedically flat sumo wrestler towars the blonde woman, her bloodied hand lashing out with an arc of electricity towards her axe-wielding arm. "Surely you're not old enough to call her a brat, mmm?" (Flavor rather than a ranged grapple, because oh my god grappling with a whip. Serpent Lash.) 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+7) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 11. (Stupid dice.) [Raxa's electric whip strikes at the woman, but she deftly ducks under it.] [Billie!] * Billie steps backwards into the shadow of another pillar, reappearing in the axe woman's shadow. She wordlessly makes for a two-handed stab down into her. 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+5) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 13. (*crosses fingers for surprise bonus*) [And Billie stabs the woman through the leg. Ouch. She's starting to not look so well.] [Wolverine! He struggles against Logan!] [And heals a bit.] 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 13. (sigh. These 13s are getting old.) [Logan keeps ahold of Wolvie this time. "Ugh. You've got a tough grip, bub."] [The Sumo man gets, squats, then leaps forward, stomach first, towards Billie! "Dosukoi!"] 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 10 for a result of 17. * Logan grins menacingly. "The last guy I collared was wearing a layer of sewer slime and a leopard-print thong. This is nothing." [And Billie avoids the dreaded bellybounce technique. Thank god. That would have been fairly disgusting.] [Chess!] * Chess looks worn out and blood's soaking the left side of her shirt, but she raises her arm to attack Blondie with her tonfa again. 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 15. [And Chess strikes her again! Barely. Blondie's starting to look tired herself, but she's surprisingly resilient.] [She's also fed up with fighting Chess, apparently, and rushes at Raxa, seeing in her an easier target.] 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+7) and gets a natural 9 for a result of 16. (Show her, Raxa!) (No easy targets here!) [And Raxa gets out of the way! Barely. Good thing, too, because the blood-soaked axe looks like it would hurt a lot.] [Logan!] * Logan continues grinning. "But back to my idea." He pulls up on Wolverine's arm, tipping him forward off balance, and then pivots him around and hurls him into the electrified cage wall. 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+7) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 13. (And he gets a -3 to defend against it, since he's already grappled) [And he fries with a sickening "YEAAARRRRRGH!" sound.] [Dreadlocks seems out of ideas, so she just tries to get the spear back again.] * Logan shrugs and dusts his hands off. "I guess getting the Adamantium taken out didn't really help so much, then. Bad luck." 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 5 for a result of 12. [She grabs the weapon and possibly gets it back! Depending on if Billie makes a body roll.] 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+5) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 11. (Damn!) [Dreadlocks gets her spear back.] [Raxa!] * Raxa ducks under the axe woman's attack and smiles up at her as she gets in close, throwing a powerful magic-backed punch for her solar plexus. "No such luck, my enemy." 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+7) and gets a natural 9 for a result of 16. ( So tireddd ) (Hey, I took care of my enemy) (complete with banter!) (These guys are tough, and we can't use M-forms.) (I mean, if we could, this would be over in under a round.) ( Mebbe ) ( Still didn't think it would take so long though. ) (Two rounds, first one to switch :P) (switching is reflexive now.) (I keel) ( But I figured you've had it easy so far, so... :P ) (So, does Logan get any love from the crowd for throwing Wolverine into the cage wall?) ( He does. Yaaay! ) (Well, our normal forms aren't exactly combat forms. A lot of us are pretty normal.) (Yup. And we're up against combat characters.) (So even with DP, it's pretty damn tough.) ( Hey! Sumo's not much of a combat character. ) (And we're all really good at dodging. *grins*) (Sure he isn't, Mr. Cracks The Ground. ;P) [And Raxa punches the woman in the gut.] (Anyway, does Raxa hit?) [Billie!] * Billie lets the spear woman have her spear (for now, anyway) and rushes the axe lady, punching for her head. 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 5 for a result of 12. [Billie does not punch her in the head.] (Wow, she took a lot of damage for someone on her last legs, heh.) (I hope she's at least taking defense penalties. x.x) ( She did, but she made it :P ) [Sumo man may seem forgotten, but he does not forget. He charges towards Billie, yelling, "DOSUKOI!"] (I want to dodge and then he can land on the axe lady in massive comedy.) 2d6+7 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+7) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 14. [Billie gets smacked by flab! Which probably hurts more than it should. Plus he's all sweaty now and eeew. He also plows into her with enough force to knock her over.] [Chess!] * Billie tumbles over. "Owowowow." (Penalty to hit someone in the head?) ( +6 if I'm reading this right. ) ( Or -6 rather ) (If you've got whatever the called-shot reducer is, it'll reduce it to -3, then -1, then -0.) (Difficult hits are difficult. Kay.) * Chess sends out her tonfa at the woman again. She seems to be aiming to beat Blonde into submission by repitition. 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 9 for a result of 17. ( Chess has a lot of accuracy ) (That's not a headshot, sorry.) (I decided not to go for it.) [Chess hits her in the back, on one of the shoulder blades. Still, Blondie continues to ignore her in favor of attacking Raxa.] (omg just die already) * Chess mutters curses under her breath. ( Chess has a lot of accuracy but not so much damage :P ) (More than me. x.x) (OMG SRSLY DIE) 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+6) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 12. [And Raxa recieves an axe wound through the other side of her stomach. She is NOT looking good now, barely able to keep on her feet.] (Wolverine is out, right?) ( Yeah. He's crispy. ) [It's Logan's turn!] * Logan spins around, still grinning, and dives at...Blondie!, leading with a pair of barbed fists! 2 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2 2d6+4) and gets a natural 6 for a result of 13 10. [Unfortunately, Blondie is able to fend off the attacks.] [Dreadlocks! She has her spear back!] 2d6+11 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+11) and gets 13, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! "Hey, a crit! Remember this next Christmas." (That's not a good prize!) (Not even in the slightest) 2d6+11 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+11) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 15. (...*sigh*) 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+6) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 10. (Dicey hates me. It's because I was so awesome before.) [Dicey apparently does hate Logan. He's able to twist out of the way so that the spear that suddenly appears behind him is only a glancing blow, further reduced by his armor, but it still glances and draws blood.] [Raxa!] * Raxa takes the hit and snarls violently as she drips blood, all down her body, especially the stomach wound. Her head tilts up to look the blonde woman in the eyes, even as her own eyes defocus a little. And then she says in a low, almost ghostly voice, "Come to Xibalba with me." And then she lashes out with her fist, quick, to smash into (or through) her ribcage. (Full attack.) ( Dicesuke is sending me tells >.> ) (Don't use his name in vain!) 2d6+10 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+10) and gets a natural 9 for a result of 19. "Oy, would you stop with the sneaking and stabbing? Fanboi over there already perforated my front, and this is going to take forever to sew by hand. And blood never comes out properly." (Jaguar fist.) (yeah, me too. I figured she was just being snarky at me for pointing out her hatred.) [And Raxa's punch pretty much crushes her chest. She gasps. "Urgh... But I will be back... I won't let you reach Zhro." Then she dies before you can do anything.] (Can we hear that in the other room?) ( Sure ) [Billie!] * Raxa just stands there a moment, fist dripping the other woman's blood. * Billie stops rolling. She stands, breathing heavily, but still runs for spear chick, trying to pull the weapon out of her hands again. 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+6) and gets a natural 5 for a result of 11. [Billie does not do it.] [Chess!] * Chess lets out a string of very loud curses as she spins around and sends lashes out next at Dreadlocks. 2d6+8 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chess (2d6+8) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 15. [And that knocks her out! But doesn't immediately kill her. Also, I forgot sumo. He's trying to hide behind a pillar hoping nobody will notice him. It's, uh, not working.] (Haha. He's turned chicken. XD) [Logan!] * Logan grabs the spear, hefts it, and then sighs. "I really don't want to kill an unarmed dude who's crying in the corner, even if he did try to squish us earlier. Anyone else feel up to it?" ( Holding, then? ) ( Dreadlocks is still alive, too. ) Do whatever, I've got this bitch. (Yes. And yeah, but she's out, so less to worry about for the moment.) [Raxa] (Um. This is kinda awkward.) (Brett, is Chess closer than Dreadlocks?) d2 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Brett (d2) and gets a natural 1 for a result of 1. ( Yes :P ) (Fantastic.) (Soul roll to not punch Chess.) 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+6) and gets a natural 8 for a result of 14. (Good enough.) [Raxa does not punch Chess! Good to know.] [Billie1] (Erm... I think I missed something.) (I think it's just that Raxa's megas out of it.) * Billie takes the spear from Logan, holds it with both hands, and shoves it right into an unconscious girl's chest. (Uh, I didn't lose my action, AFAIK.) (I was gonna zap the sumo.) ( Go ahead :P ) * Raxa 's glazed over eyes look to Chess for a moment, and she says, "You too, revered Jaguar..." and then she trails off, blinking. "... which is... not your name. Ngh." She shakes her head and then extends a hand towards the sumo guy hiding, the crack of lightning bursting from her bloody hand announcing her VENGENCE. (Full attack Blood and Thunder.) 2d6+10 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+10) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 14. (Dreadsilocks dead?) ( Yep ) [The sumo man screams as he's zapped and starts running towards the far wall of the arena, shouting "DOSUKOIIIIIII!"] [Chess!] * Raxa still seems very much out of it as she stands there, the lightning still crackling from her outstretched hand. "No death here is proper. All will be taken to Xibalba." * Chess pulls some clothing over to her wound to stop the blood flow and whimpers from the pain. She keeps a wary eye out and stays away from both Raxa and sumo guy, but doesn't do anything else. [Oh yes, the crowd cheers when Billie finishes off Dreadlocks. Now they're chanting, "Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!"] [Logan!] * Logan goes over to Blondie's corpse and grabs the big axe, giving it a few test-swings. He may or may not be stalling. (... Logan, this is a horrible idea.) (You walked right up next to me.) (HEre's hoping for another good roll!) [Just as Logan touches the axe, it disintegrates!] [And Raxa] (Item created by a deva, woot.) (Soul roll to not punch Logan.) (Logan hasn't really noticed Raxa's state yet. I think he's about to.) 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+6) and gets a natural 4 for a result of 10. (Failed.) ( Ruh roh ) (Oh IS HE.) (Good thing you've got that armor!) (Also, he really doesn't want to kill that guy in cold blood.) (For a hard-boiled detective, he sure is a wimp.) (He sure is.) (I'm kidding. It's laudable he doesn't want to kill him! ;P) 2d6+6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6+6) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 13. (Cold blood is the BEST time to kill somebody, they probably won't fight back!) * Raxa turns her eyes to Logan, and half-smiles. "You do want to go. That is right of you." And then her lightning hand swings around and she tries to smash that magic-backed fist into his chest. (Katie agrees.) (Jaguar Fist, Full Attack.) 2d6+10 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+10) and gets a natural 11 for a result of 21. (BOOM!) "I...what?" Logan looks confused, and then goes flying. [Billie!] (yay for armor!) * Raxa stands there, after smashing her fist into Logan's chest, the bloody fist just hanging there in the air, as she breathes heavily. [Logan is not incredibly close to just falling over unconscious.] (Is she possessed or controlled or anything?) (That exorcism would work on?) ( Nope ) (Ah, a pity.) * Billie turns to Raxa as Logan goes flying, and frowns. "Wake up, Raxa." She spins, bringing the butt of the spear with her, and slams it into her. 2d6+5 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Billie (2d6+5) and gets a natural 9 for a result of 14. 2d6+3 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Raxa (2d6+3) and gets a natural 7 for a result of 10. ( I may be lagging out ) (There you are!) ( That or Billie's just not going :P ) (No, she went. You'll have seen.) ( Hmmmmms. ) (Billie smacked me with the but of the spear. Rolled a 14, I defended with a 10.) ( Billie may have just killed Raxa >.> ) (Dude, does Raxa die at a 0? (There's no unconscious buffer?) ( -10 ) (It was totally a stun attack...) (... how many weapon levels is the butt of that spear?) ( I do not know :X ) (... then it likely won't kill Raxa.) (You can pull punches.) ( Oh here. It's 54. ) [Billie knocks Raxa out.] [The crowd still chants for kills.] ( No more combat! For now. ) [But you still have sumo man to deal with, who's watching you carefully.] * Billie looks down at Raxa, then up at the crowd. "I can't believe this bullshit fucking world." * Raxa acknowledges Billie's attack only by swiveling those defocused eyes towards her for a moment, and then just falling forward to the ground unconscious. * Billie lets out a long breath. ~Raxa's not dead,~ she thinks at Sun. ~I think all of this just... got to her.~ * Logan picks himself up off the ground and examines his now completely shredded jumpsuit. "They don't pay me enough for this." [The crowd chants louder. "KILL! KILL! KILL! KILL!"] * Chess mutters, "I am so sick of this. Will someone please... I'm not really in any state to defend against sumo guy." * Billie sighs and looks at the sumo guy. "Hey. Sumo. You talk at all, besides a sumo chant?" ["..... dosukoi."] * Logan glances around at the other two. "And Raxa was the one of us who would be comfortable with this sort of thing." He looks tired. ... Yeah. I kinda wish I were like that, too. (Just wake me up and put me next to the guy.) (Problem solved!) "Oy, Dosukoi, you feel like attacking me so that I can assuage my guilt when I kill you?" [He cowers! "Dosukoiiii!"] [The bot beeps. "3 minutes until Grevious Inaction Penalty."] * Logan rolls his eyes. "That doesn't sound good." He gives a long look to Chess and Billie, and then shrugs. "All right. I'll take one for the team. I've seen and done enough shit in my life, this is just one more." * Billie sighs. "Enough with the speeches." * Logan takes the spear from Billie, hefts it, and then charges at Sumo guy. ["Dosukoiiiiiiiiiiiiii!" Yells the sumo man, hiding behind his hands.] (Logan evens up his on-world kill count with me! Unfair. :|) (if he's not defending, then I go for a vital spot, a quick painless kill.) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Logan (2d6) and gets a natural 5 for a result of 5. [Logan kills the man. The audience cheers loudly.] * Billie spits on the ground, then picks up Raxa. ~I'm sorry, Sun.~ * Logan pulls the spear out and drops it to the ground, heavily. "Rest in peace, big guy." He turns around and heads back to the others. [The victory fanfare plays.] [Meanwhile points are allotted. But I'm not going to try to calculate them unless you REALLY want to know.] (Logan wins all the points!) [And the doors to cell block 4's locker room reopens.] * Raxa bleeds sexfully. It's because she has a sexy learning disability. (Don't be dumb. Raxa killed one and I killed one.) ( Actually Raxa probably did ) (Raxa awesomed all over the points.) (It's what she does.) ( She attacked her own team. They love that :P ) (See?) (Fair enough.) * Billie heads for the locker room with Raxa. (But I threw a guy into the wall! It was awesome!) ( True. ) ( Actually ) ( I'm gonna end here >.> ) * Logan follows along, hunched over a little now that the pain in his chest and back are starting to kick in. Once in the locker room he removes his now fairly well shredded body armor and lets out a dry chuckle. [End! Here!]
