Sever felt a cannon blast whistle past his head as he shifted to a crouch. He shifted to the left, then the right, then the left, but the woman didn't fall for it. Unfortunately, she didn't fall for it. However, he did manage to do another draw cut along her arm this time. He grinned. "Stings like a B%*%#, don't it?" He said. She was tough, but he was quick, and he hoped he could put her down before she hurt him.

"I'm not interested in what you have to offer. And, yes, Bedlam is a brutal place. I do what I can, but random gorilla people does not help with that." He turned to leave. The right people knew, an agency that might actually help. Maybe, he thought, he should find the chemical and dispose of some of it somehow. Or not. He wasn't exactly trained for that. He headed out of the trailer.

Sever There was in over his head, and then there was this. Sever, who came through the portal last, just stood in silence as he listened to them talk about an alien invasion. He clutched the hilt of his sword in a near panic, and just stood there staring. He was aware, dimly, how superheroing worked. You fought bad guys, you got hurt, you might even die. But you fought, and you knew who you were fighting and understood the threat. This was all advanced physics and alien civilizations and idea well beyond and above his pay grade. Only he wasn't getting paid. He took a deep breath, and calmed his nerves. His grip relaxed on his sword. If he was stuck here, he was going to fight and help. That was how it was going to be. He never expected to grow old anyway.

Same trick as last time, Fast Acrobatic Bluff and a sword attack, BUT I'm going to 18 Gonna hopefully wait for the results on that before deciding how much attack bonus to use. EDIT: Reflex save; 16 Passed Tougness save; 9 Gotta burn an HP For that one; 22 Tanked a cannon. Amusingly enough. Attack roll, +2 attack -2 damage; 18 Hope that works. DC 22 toughness save if it hits.

Sever growled in pain. These things hurt. If they got a second shot, he was screwed. He slashed to his right and cut straight through that drone, before thrusting his sword clear through the chest of the other one, pulling it out, but dragging downward as he did so. That was gonna hurt for quite a while, he thought. "I don't know what the %#@& these things are, but they %$#%& HURT!" He growled, looking around for new targets.
-
Gonna use accurate attack by 2 an attack of 17, for a DC 22 toughness save to one. If that one goes down, repeat for the second with Takedown Attack
-
Gonna burn a 2nd HP to shake off the daze so he can act.
-
8 This is why HP were invented; 27 From one extreme to the other! 27 for the first save; 14 and there. Dazed.

Sever hopped back away from the woman with the red mohawk. She was dangerous, and he was glad that his newfound toughness gave him the durability to endure that. He hopped to the right briefly and watched as her head whipped around to follow him. As soon as she looked to the right, Sever bounced fast back to the left, hopping to her left and performing a vicious draw cut against her abdomen. Draw cut, he thought. A shallow cut not meant to do serious harm, drawn across the target's body. He knew he drew blood, he knew it would sting, a lot. A papercut right above the bellybutton would sting. He hopped back away from her again. Man he was fast, now.

"I am who I am." He said. "And you've caused a lot of chaos in the city tonight." He narrowed his eyes and growled. "Where did you get that chemical." In the dark, he looked bigger than he actually was. If anyone actually got a good look at him, he was a relatively short man in good shape instead of a towering menace. The coat certainly helped, with the way the ragged bottom of it fluttered in the wind. Half of doing what he did was theatrics. The rest was brute force.

28 for intimidate on the Ringmistress.

24 On a feint attack with Acrobatics. 24 For the hit, which is kind of insane and probably would have worked. I used Accurate Attack for 1. It's a DC23 toughness save because he's being more careful to be more likely to hit. I'm ASSUMING that hit, because if it didn't, he's entirely in over his head here.

Ryan had gotten distracted. He was always getting distracted. He was seeing live music. He loved live music. Even if it wasn't entirely his preferred genre, he still loved music of all kinds. "Hey guys, took me a minute." He flashed a smile. "You must be Sam. Michael's mentioned you. Nice to meet you." He settled into the seat and tried to relax. He was full of nervous energy. Bernadette was playing. She was a good musician. "This should be a hell of a show." That's when he noticed the other kids. "Hey everyone, name's Ryan. Sorry for being rude."

Sever turned to Vueriz. "Marty McFly is the main character of an old 80s movie where the character goes back in time from 1985 to 1955 where he ends up meeting his mom and his dad. His mom has a crush on him and..." he chuckled. "The, um, orphanage had a lot of old movies. I've seen more than my fair share...the Back to the Future trilogy is pretty good, though." He turned to the rest of the conversation. "Yeah, um, I've got no idea where they even are...or when."

10 for initiative

"Um, Sever." Ryan said. He was visibly blushing in front of the beautiful young woman that he knew was Lawrence's mother. He coughed. He shifted awkwardly, and took a deep breath. "H-happy to help. Um, it's, it's what heroes do, right? Help people?" He glanced over at Baz, and had to resist the urge to roll his eyes at his new friend. Baz was a good guy, but he did not have great impulse control. Then Consuelo went ahead and just made it explicit. "Yeah, um, time travelers. No idea how we got here, no idea why we're here. We had friends, but, they're not here with us. Some of us are missing."
-
Sever stood and watched the crowd. He made sure that the people were running away, and no more children got separated from their parents. He was very tense, but he didn't trust his ability to confront this villain. Yes, it was almost sixteen years ago, but that was still Velocity, and if she wasn't easily handling this, what chance did he stand? His sword might not do any good, and he was still very new to using it. So, instead, he stood there and watched, and waited, hoping that the mummy situation would get resolved soon.
-
John was on top of her in seconds. "I found your chemicals. It's making people sick. I don't think you want to hurt people, do you?" He was growling in a low voice. He needed to talk to this woman. He loomed over her, staring down at her. If she moved in the wrong way, he could snatch her up and run away, talking to her away from the circus. He was cautious by default, and cursed his luck that this woman woke up so suddenly.
-
Sever is going to watch out for people and also try to get them to get away from the mummy. He's going to look out for anyone stray and see if he can help them get away faster.

"I'm a musician." Ryan said. "I play guitar, I listen to a lot of music. I play the occasional video game. I don't have a lot of hobbies outside of music, really." He took a sip of his soda and shrugged. "I'm not exactly an exciting guy, unless you like guitar." He looked introspective for a moment, glancing down at his hands for a second. "I grew up in an orphanage. For a while, before I was born, there was this guy everybody called Uncle Charlie. He'd come around and play music for the kids. Well, I expressed an interest, so, uh, he taught me. He passed away a couple of years ago. He left me one of his guitars, I've never played it." "So, that's my deal."
-
Ryan shrugged as he sat down his coke. "Freedom is such a crazy city. I mean I've lived here my whole life, but I'm amazed by some of it. Kami, those are gods, right? Like gods of places and stuff? Sorry, not super familiar with it, I just heard about it." He was wearing an old band t-shirt and his usual jeans. He had recently dyed a purple streak in his hair, just for fun. He always had a color of some kind in his hair. Neko was interesting. She was nice enough, but he hadn't gotten a chance to get to know her, yet. He hadn't really gotten to know anyone, really. He had always had trouble making friends. He didn't want to admit, and still hadn't said it, but he'd seen her show online before. He wouldn't consider himself a fan, but he liked it enough. He would end up watching this episode at some point. He sure was glad the school was giving him a stipend. He rarely ever had money before. He leaned back a bit and looked up.

John pulled a lockpick out of his pocket and worked at it for a second. It took less than a minute for him to simply unlock it and open it. After that, he opened the door as quietly as he could, and snuck inside to have a 'conversation' with the ringmaster. He glared at the sleeping man, and stalked towards him as quietly as he could.

22 to open the lock That won't take long\ 24 to sneak into the trailer

Sever considered his options. He could put his mask on, but he was a two week old infant at this point in history. There wasn't any point in it. He watched the big mummy move, and watched carefully. There, a little girl. He spotted her running after her parents, who had just turned around to notice that she wasn't there with them. He could easily see where she belonged. The mummy was right next to her, too. His feet were moving before he realized it. The sword had given him several gifts. One of which was a truly breakneck running speed. He ran forward and snatched the little girl up off the ground. He barely gave the mummy a glance as he took off running for her parents. "You're okay." he whispered to her as he ran through the crowd. He managed to get to her parents. He dropped her off safely, and then took off running towards his friends again, not wanting to interfere too much. As he got there, he realized he may have just screwed up the timeline. He might have rescued a little girl who was supposed to die here. "Oh...#@%$" He muttered.
