Micky and his brutish companion walk up the alley towards you, forming a rank with the first thug who has now regained his composure:
Workin'? you gotta be joking you little cunt, these boys are ours now and have been for months. Tight little fuckers though, we're here to give em a squeeze. Now unless you're in the mood for a squeeze too, you can take your two pointy little mates {gesturing at your now lowered swords} and fack off.

[Lumen]

Knives lets out a chuckle, "Well now, that might explain why this ignorant slot thought he could quit payin me boss.  Though I'd be real careful if I was you Micky.  My little mates would be more than happy to give that scar there some chums."  He points his blade at the scar he'd gifted the brute with in their last encounter.

He points his chin at the thug that had swung the crowbar at him, "An this one.  He knows he doesn't want to tussle with my mates.  He's bout to piss himself and I haven't even taken a swing at 'im yet."  The vicious smile once again creeps across Knives' face.  "Go on home now lad before you wind up with a face like your mate."


I suppose I should roll intimidation based on how the conversation is going.

I will spend an edge to negate the glitch if possible.  Hopefully circumstances will help more than my one die.

In an instant, Micky's face turns to steel YOU LITTLE CUNT, NO-ONE SPEAKS TO ME LIKE THAT, I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU YOU CUNT!!!!!

Knives could tell Micky meant business and seized the opportunity to make good on his promise to add more scars to his ugly mug.  He opens up with a quick jab of the right hand, his left hand holding steady ready to defend incoming blows.

[Csjarrat]

Micky spots your thrust and tries to duck out of the way, but you stick to your promise, giving him a nice nick on the arm from the glancing hit. That should scar up nicely.
rea 4, clubs 5, custom grip 1, reach 1 (11d6.hits(5)=6)

As you lunge forwards, the second thug charges at you with a huge overhead smash with his crowbar

[Lumen]

Agility 6 + Blades (Knives) 8 + 1 Kung fu + 1 personal grip +1 Imp. Combat ability = 17d6
17d6.hits(5)=6


The thug's overhead smash was just as obvious this time as it had been before and Knives manages to divert the blow away from his precious noggin.

[Csjarrat]

Micky, having seen the speed of your blade 1st hand and the ease with which you've defelected his heaviest hitter's blows, decides that Plan A isnt going to work after all. He staggers back, glancing at his arm where your blade glanced him and growls.
He drops his sledge hammer, reaches into his jacket and draws a pistol, firing a shot at you, a loud report echoing down the narrow alleyway.

*Frag me.  I better get ahead in this tussle quick or I'm dead*


Using Edge.
Reaction 5 + Edge 3 - 1 Already defended = 7d6

Knives quickly spins about barely dodging the incoming before planting again and looking directly into Micky's rage filled eyes gives him a quick gesture.  The universal sign for 'come get some'.

[Csjarrat]

The first thug, heartened by the change of events fancies his luck, he closes the distance with a run and swings a low blow, aiming for your gut

[Lumen]

Agility 6 + Blades (Knives) 8 + 1 Kung fu + 1 personal grip +1 Imp. Combat ability - 2 Already Defended = 15d6

Quickly becoming overwhelmed by his opponent's superior numbers and reach Knives tries to deflect the blow to the gut but it manages to catch him.

[Csjarrat]

The your parrying takes a lot of the sting out of the hit, but the crowbar still connects and knocks the wind out of you.
Thug 1 is strength 4: /2+ 1 + 2 net hits.you need to resist 5 physical damage using impact armour.

No damage taken.


The crowbar lands right in Knives' midsection luckily his PPP vitals protector did exactly what it claims to do.  *Thank the Queen, that could have been bad.  Stick to the plan, take down Micky and don't get sloppy.*  Once again Knives strikes out with speed and precision.


Agility 6 + Knives 8 + 1 Imp Combat Ability + 1 Personal Grip + 2 Weapon Focus = 18d6
18d6.hits(5)=5

[Csjarrat]

Your determined and accurate slice bears right down into micky's outstretched gun arm, causing him a grievous wound. His pistol clatters to the floor, covered in blood. His arm is leaking profusely as he turns and runs to the van, his mates in tow.
You wait you little cant, i'll faking kill you!!!
-1 for defended (10d6.hits(5)=2) You score 3 net hits.
