OOC: What was the reflex save for?

Is there anything with which to contain a runaway Scorpian lying around nearby? Like say a bowl-shaped thing Dox Atom can conveniently slam ontop of it.

[UglyPanda]

At HQ

The scorpion is moving very fast, it leaps into the door, leaving a small hole where it made contact with the glass.

It's now outside, and Doc Atom has to follow it through the crowd of people.

OOC:
To see if your character could react in time. There are no bowls.

[JeminiZero]

Doc Atom

"Cross! Do Something!" Doc Atom shouts as he flies after the scorpian, and tries to grab it.

OOC:
Not even the ever familiar stainless steel dustbins which populate office lobbies?

Free Action: Switch to Strength
Full Round Action: Charge attempting to grapple
Attack Roll:(1d20+11)[27] (Including Charge bonus)
Grapple Chack: (1d20+13)[16] (Not including bonus from differences in size)

Edit: Actually I also forgot to include Melee AB in that Grapple check, so add another 9 to that figure.

[UglyPanda]

HQ

"Like what? I'm kinda confused as to why there is a chrome arachne-something. Metal-Scorp, Metal-Scorp. Chrome-pla~ted, Metal-Scorp."

OOC:
There is a door in the way, you can't charge.

And this isn't combat, roll an appropriate skill, not an attack roll.

[JeminiZero]

Doc Atom

"Like what? I'm kinda confused as to why there is a chrome arachne-something. Metal-Scorp, Metal-Scorp. Chrome-pla~ted, Metal-Scorp."

"Cross! We've had nothing but attacks, sabotage and vandalism. Whatever that scorpian is, IT CAN'T BE GOOD! GET IT!"

OOC:

There is a door in the way, you can't charge.

Subtract 2 from the attack bonus then. Change action to move-until-close-enough and standard action to grapple.

And this isn't combat, roll an appropriate skill, not an attack roll.

And what skill should I roll to grab a scorpian? AFAIK this is a grapple check started by an attack roll.

[UglyPanda]

OOC:
It's outside, by the legs of pedestrians. Roll tumble. Then you can try to grab it.

I'm unfortunately a bit* brain-dead today.


*Bit meaning very something noun adjective... where was I? Right, I'm not thinking straight today for various reasons.

[JeminiZero]

OOC: What kind of Acrobatics DC am I looking at?

[UglyPanda]

OOC:
10 or 15
(1d2)[2]

15.

[JeminiZero]

OOC: Meh, I've used up my meagre dice luck for the week, on that pretty 16 on the attack roll. Everything goes down hill from thereon. I'll just recycle that attack roll into a laser shot on the Scorpian. Improved Precise Shot means Doc Atom can ignore anything short of total cover to nail the Scorp.

Radiation Blast
Attack Roll: Recycled to 25 from above
DC 28 toughness save if it hits.

[UglyPanda]

OOC:
Are you sure?

[JeminiZero]

OOC: Will it get away if I fail the Acrobatics roll?

[kpenguin]

Gravatar looks for Captain Unstoppable and taps him on the shoulder.

"Hey, how are we gonna clear up this mess? It's startin' to stink."

"It looks like the hardworking servicemen of Big City are taking care of the job.

Now, Plastic Surgeon is part of your rogues' gallery. What do you suppose he's up to?"

[UglyPanda]

OOC:
If you fail the acrobatics roll, then fail a perception.

[Archpaladin Zousha]

"It looks like the hardworking servicemen of Big City are taking care of the job.

Now, Plastic Surgeon is part of your rogues' gallery. What do you suppose he's up to?"

"This is completely different than what he'd do when I fought him in the past. Back then he basically used his powers to make supermodels and movie stars ugly because he had those nasty burn scars. He couldn't use his powers on himself, so he wanted to ruin everyone else's beauty. From what we've seen so far, his narcissism's still there, but he's done a complete 180, since now he's handsome again and he wants to make everyone identical to him. Doesn't make sense."

[UglyPanda]

The bloody and soapy street

"Or he could just like money, like 99% of criminals." says a street cleaner who absolutely nobody was talking to.

Are you guys done

[Archpaladin Zousha]

Gravatar facepalms.

"Sorry, it's been a while since I've actually encountered a villain like that. Most of them were sickos or something."

[JeminiZero]

OOC: Rather than Acrobatics, how about an overrun maneuver?

Also, what sort of Perception DC an I looking at.

[ChronicLunacy]

* The Huntsman

OOC: Are we unparalyzed yet?

"I've never met the man before, but I already hate him. What about the woman he was with? Does anyone know her? And how in the hell did he manage to conjure up talking dinosaurs like that?" Huntsman called, for the first time since the battle started throwing aside his cloak and letting the others see him over by the sidewalk.

[Archpaladin Zousha]

"I have no freakin' clue."

[UglyPanda]

OOC:
Please stop trying to do the math. We're not going to roll this time.

Are you going to destroy it or chase after it? That's all.

City sidewalks, bloody sidewalks

Green Hound and Huntsman's legs stop tingling and return to normal

[Dhavaer]

Seeing the cleaners show up, Magistrix ceases her chant. "Don't want to put anyone out of work..." She murmurs.

[JeminiZero]

Doc Atom attempts to blast it.

[UglyPanda]

Sidewalk in front of HQ

The scorpion is now a puddle of molten steel.

Is the text message to us or Doc Atom?

[JeminiZero]

Doc Atom

Doc Atom runs up and gathers the remains of the scorpian.

OOC: Its probably for you guys. Now is probably a good time to pick up evidence and return to HQ.

[smuchmuch]

OOc: Good idea.

Ic:
Slightly woozy from the bleach fumes, Green Hound takes a small minute to get up and take a few a few steps to chck his legs are okay.

That done, taking somme small plastic bag from one of his pocket, he gather a tooth and a a sample of blood , before it's all washed away, in case it might allow them to learn something about those dinosaurs' origin.

Then he snoops around where the projector was, for any clue left, leftover papers from that real estate scam for example, about what the surgeon was exactly trying to achieve.

[UglyPanda]

Bloody Sidewalk

The teeth of each of the dinosaurs are all gone. Plenty of blood and papers, however. A quick examination of their papers indicates one of the owners of the company is somebody named Nishi Benren.

Busy Sidewalk

Doc Atom notices that the hot liquid metal is starting to fuse to the sidewalk. There are a few odd wires and computer chips floating in it, but they are half-melted as well.

[JeminiZero]

Doc Atom

Doc Atom tries to pull what chips and pieces he can from the molten pool. Half melted chips were better than nothing.

[UglyPanda]

Where Doc Atom is

Doc Atom manages to pick up the chips. They look like they're in pretty bad shape.

[UglyPanda]

OOC:
Anyone doing anything to investigate, or do you all just want your characters to go to relax until the next crisis?
