That's funny! I've never been a comics guy, but my new roommate bought a bunch of the new comics and I decided to read them. Might as well! They're first issues, I'll never really have a better time, right?

I've been told that Thor #1 is great and that Deadpool fights Undead Presidents in his new comic. So, yeah, definitely picking those up.

EDIT: Also, in case you are wondering, Yin taught Li that she's the Duke of New York A #1.

So, considering that it looks like our friendly neighborhood were-elk is probably not going to be joining us again, I'm wondering if the Lady of the Rains needs a new emissary? Maybe a.. small, Chinese, martial artist, demon hunting, college student who still owes her a favor?

Good point. I need to have her show up to demand stuff from the PCs. Because you guys need more things to make your lives interesting, right?

I was expecting them to recognise him based on that, so it's not too problematic!

I would like to point out that I have not once raised my hands in violence against these particular Lutins.

Also, I've been meaning to post this for a few days now but I keep forgetting. Possible Theme Song for Kim.

I hope I'm not slowing us down. I thought I stopped at a good spot for Connor to show up for whatever he needed from Yin and Li.

I think it's a good spot too, I've just been waiting for Steel to say when Connor meets up with Yin.

If you need me to roll to hit one of them because they're actually a Skrull Lutin than I will.

Silliness. A skrull would have chosen someone with super powers!

Well bugger that. Taking a point of physical stress as backlash to have the spell go off successfully, then.

So assuming that second one saw through the veil, while there's no real chance of this helping, worth a try!

(4d3-8)[0]+1=1

Yeah, that wasn't going to happen. Crap. This is why I need to cast expensive spells and put it all on my damned debt!

Also: Goddamnit Avian. Why did you have to remind him about the Lady of the Rains?!

I'm going to try and tackle Rolf. I assume it's Athletics?

(4d6)[3][5][4][6](18)+4=6

Fists in real combat situations, but in this case I'll allow athletics because he is just running.

EDIT: edited results into last post IC. It's Connor's turn, as these guys aren't inhumanly fast.

Fists? Really? That seems odd. I assumed Athletics because it's what Inhuman Speed gives a bonus too, and it seems like super speed would help in this situation.

Athletics to catch up, sure. If you really wanted to tackle someone, grapple style, that would be fists because it requires some hand-to-hand expertise.

Does that make sense?

I suppose that makes sense for a grapple. But I was thinking that I would just ram right into him at full speed.

Edit; Whoops, I meant to write super soaker, not gun, that's fixed now.

I figured, which is why athletics was fine for this situation. I mentioned it more to hedge for the future, to make it clear that I wasn't necessarily saying that all tackles in the game = athletics skill.

I'm curious, what is a svartalvenn? The only thing that comes up on Google is a river in Sweden.

You're right it should be svartalfar. I blame . . . actually, that was just me being stupid.

Fixing it!

Gasp! Yin's crush is a dark elf from the realm of Svartalheim?!

The only reason I even know what that is is because I read Thor.

Is there any compel you can think of for Yin here? I don't know her well enough to know how she would respond. Of course, maybe we can just let her stew on this new information until some future date.
