Mantis wants out of this death trap he wishes the gate was alot closer but no such luck on that one. Drones are the best eye sight of a team most of the team best to get that little tin can out of the way. Mantis decides to hit the drone with a power bolt.


Complex action cast a power bolt force 5

Spellcasting (combat) 5 (7) + magic 3 - 3 sustained spells = 7

Drain 3S

___Mantis___
You knit and meld the mana together into a powerbolt, launching it blindly at the drone. The magic is too weak to overcome the raw metallic harshness of its manufactured frame and it merely rocks on its suspension as the force dissipated through it's chassis.

___Lumen___
The flashbang detonates loudly with a blinding flash, catching the guard manning the door controls.
bod 4, armour 8 (-3) (9d6.hits(5)=2) 2 hits on resistance test, takes 4s damage
vehicles dont take stun damage, so drone unaffected
The force of the detonation knocks the breath out of the guard, he appears winded as he bounces off the control panel.

Your next pass begins simultaneously with the drone

[Lumen]

Knives' shoulders slump as the mana he collected in his muscles dissipates and makes him a little too aware of what a long night it has been.  *Not over yet.  Keep the power coming and we just might make it out alive.*  Knowing there's not enough time to call forth his magical powers and strike the drone, Knives calls forth the taser with a gesture and fires at the guard by the door controls as he keeps slowly advancing towards the gate... and freedom...


Before we get into the rolls here's the drain for my now worn off Attribute Boost.
Body 5 + Willpower 5 = 10d6.
10d6.hits(5)=3  All drain resisted.

Free Action: Deploy taser from arm slide.

Simple Action 1:  Fire taser
Pistols 1 + Agility 6 + Smartgun 2 = 9d6
9d6.hits(5)=0  Really...  Only one dart left.

Simple Action 2: Attribute Boost (Str)
Attribute Boost 3 + Magic 5 = 8d6
8d6.hits(5)=4
Current Strength 9 for 8 rounds.

[Csjarrat]

The gas from the cannister thickens as your eyes start to itch, and your throat begins to feel sore.
Grabbing the rapidly deployed taser, you zero in on your mark and fire, cursing loudly as your taser dart misses its mark. The winded guard stumbles back to his feet, the dart crackling and discharging its capacitors into the wall behind him.
The drone grabs your attention as it's servos audibly whir as the turret re-adjusts for your new heading, launching another cannister your way.
pilot 4, target 4, smartgun 2 (airburst) (10d6.hits(5)=4)
dodge test please lumen (it is now directly targeting you)

[Lumen]

Reaction 5
5d6.hits(5)=2

[Csjarrat]

___Lumen___
The cannister airbursts almost directly overhead, covering you in an itchy, irritant chemical. Immediately you feel your eyes burn harder, and your throat feels like you've been gargling razor blades.
+2 net hits for the drone's GL means your toxin resistance will be resisting strength 7 now, not strength 5.

__Ini 8__
No passes left

__Ini 5___
Mantis you're up

[Scawire]

Drake I should have guesses my spells would be too weak to deal with the drone well I keep 3 spells sustained. Best come up with a plan and quick. Mantis creeps up the wall of the building hoping the wall being so close to him will help to keep any senors from getting a good detection of him. Well the drone is the main problem but until I get a good plan I best start with the meta-humans

Mantis decides to cast a stun bolt at one of the guards to try and lower the threat number him and his team of runners are up against.


Guard #1
Stun Bolt Force 5
Casting
Spellcasting (combat) 5 (7) + magic 3 - sustained spells 3 = 7
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4254559/ 2hits
Drain (f/2)-1 = 1Stun
Logic (cerebral) (psyche) 5 (7) ( 8 ) + Will 5 + daredrenaline 1 = 14
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4254560/ 4 hits



Free action: ? Walking along building Wall ?
Complex action: Cast Stun Bolt

[Csjarrat]

___Mantis___
You shimmy a few metres nearer to the drone, venturing deeper into the cloud of stinging, irritating gas spewing from the first cannister.
Melding the mana into a stunbolt, you hurl it with all your might at the sole remaining guard.
The spell tears into his aura, stunning him and sending his unconscious form hurtling to the ground in front of the control panel.
wil 3, -1 wound mod (2d6.hits(5)=0) spell damage fills his stun monitor.

__Ini 10, 3rd pass___
The drone, having expended its ammunition, switches with an audible clunk to it's secondary armament, the turret swinging towards Mantis as he advances up the wall. The nozzle of the weapon glows red and the gas in front of you begins to vaporise and disperse, you knew what was coming.
pilot 4, targetting 4, smartgun 2 (10d6.hits(5)=2)
reaction or full defense test please!

[Scawire]

Oh drake on a stick Mantis thinks as the drone sends an attack his way.


Reaction 3 (not sure If I minus the 3 dice for the sustained spells if I do I get a 0 dice pool)

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4254614/ 2 hits (wow, but I'm thinking it might be a moooooo point)

[Csjarrat]

___mantis____
The gas around you ionises and disperses as you furiously duck and weave, trying to get out of the drones line of fire.
The beam streaks across your armour a couple of times, causing mild irritation but you dodge the worst of it, knowing all too well the agony its weaponry can cause

___end of combat turn 1____
Lumen, toxin resistance strength 7, mantis at strength 5

Then roll for ini!!!

[Lumen]

Body 5 + Chemical Protection 2 = 7d6
7d6.hits(5)=2
That won't be good.

Reaction 5 + Intuition 3 = 8d6
8d6.hits(5)=2  If at least 2 dice are subtracted from the pool it drops to 1 hit.

[Scawire]

Body 4
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4255059/ 1 hit (drake in a can)

INITIATIVE
Reaction (Adept ablity) 2(3) + Int (psyche) 2(3) -sustained spells 3 = 6+ 3d6 (unless the -3 drops the base too)
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4255061/ 1 hit
 I opps and put hits at 3 so 1 hit not 2
INT = 6 or 3 + 1,  7 or 4 and two passes

[Csjarrat]

The gas tears at your eyes and skin, ripping at the membrane of your throat. Everything exposed to the gas feels like it's been set on fire.
Your head swims, finding your balance is difficult, let alone aiming steadily.
Mantis [takes 4 stun damage] Knives [takes 5 stun damage]
you both narrowly avoided being incapacitated; gits! :-) didn't realise you had such high willpower stats.
you're at -2 to all actions for disorientation and all further wound modifiers will be doubled whilst in the area of effect

Charging forwards to the gate seems more suicidal than ever, the second guard still hadn't re-appeared after yammering into his commlink, re-enforcements were probably en-route.
You were going to need to think quick and get above the gas before it knocked you out.

Initiative=
Drone ini 9, 3IP
Lumen ini 9, 2IP
Mantis ini 4, 2IP


//from: DUnk//<<Boys, get the fuck out of there now. You've got 2 responders and a MMU van heading your way, about 2 minutes away, just crossing the bridge now.>>
The echoey, reflected sound of sirens heading your way re-enforces his point. You had to move, and quickly.

Both, EDG test please, no mods for this

[Lumen]

*Fuck this drek if we can't go through the gate we'll go up and over.*
Knives dashes along the backside of the van to the wall and skitters up to the top, locking his Geeko Tape Glove in a firm grip at the top of the wall.

Free Action: Walk
Simple Action 1: Climb
Climbing 1 + Strength 9 + Geeko Gloves 2 - DM 1 - Disoriented 2 = 9d6
9d6.hits(5)=1  Fraggin Mother Fragger!  I hope that's enough.
Simple Action 2: Send simple message

Once set on the wall Knives creates an ARO directly on his open palm extended downward to help Mantis up.  He then sends Mantis a short message with the coords of the ARO, <Grab here.  We're going up and over.>

[Scawire]

I think I used all my edge dealing with those coppers that checked my id so It is at zero but I will roll what the number is just incase that is what you want me to do.

Edge = 1 (0ed by the cops)
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4256558/ rolled a 3 no hit



Mantis will make his way over to the wall at a running speed maybe this big metal death machine will not hit a fast moving target. Ya right this life in the shadows and you rarely ever catch a break, unless it is breaking your leg when you think you became the team rigger.
