Riffsational!(OOC)

[Ari]

He's not taking Blue Jay all that seriously, no.

DC25 TOU save is, as you will observe from its stats, 1 more than it can possibly survive.

Burst like a bubble!

[Cubist]

Does Jube have any idea who that "British girl with white hair" might be? If said "girl" is a supervillain, she presumably operates in Europe, with possible emphasis on Spain in particular, and she's interested in high-tech, with possible emphasis on sonic/acoustic gizmoes. Or... hmmm... does (Wlodjyka's wife) Farahilde Moefehnler have white hair?

[Ari]

Nope, she's got brown hair in all the photos Jay has seen.

And the description doesn't ring any bells for him. Spain is a common wintering spot for British villains, but none of the female ones he knows of have white hair.

[Raveled]

So now it's Blue Jay vs. Paris?

[Ari]

Pretty much. I just need to finish his preliminary stats first. Apologies.

[Ari]

[Raveled]

Blue Jay

Move Action: Going to make an Acrobatic Bluff as a Move Action. -5 for trying to do it fast, SM so it comes out to DC 20.

Standard Action: Arrowing with Piercing damage. Blue Jay's ranged attack check vs Pawn's Def, DC 20 + Autofire (1d20+15=18) Let's hope the feint works.

[Ari]

Opposing that with Sense Motive, which he has a +3 bonus to(same with Acrobatics, really): 5! Failed. DC20+2 from Autofire comes out to DC22 TOU save: 19! Failed by 3, a Bruise.

Initiative roll: Another 19!

[Raveled]

Blue Jay's Ini. (1d20+15=18)

[Ari]

So

Pawn: Bruise(x1)-GM

Blue Jay: Unharmed, 2HP

Snare Attack roll: 20! Miss.

[Raveled]

Blue Jay

Standard Attack: Arrowing with Bludegoning damage this time. Blue Jay's ranged attack check vs. Paris' Def. DC 20 Tou (1d20+15=20)

Move Action: Taking cover.

[Ari]

That misses.

Round 2

Same order, no HP loss or gain.

Using Super-STR to life up one of the cars nearby, going to throw it at Blue Jay. Attack roll: 19! Miss, though ruling that it instead hits the car she's concealed behind. DC25 TOU save for the car: 25, heilege.

Blue Jay's turn.

Oh and Darksider, feel free to make a Notice check to try and hear the commotion going on.

[Darksider42]

Well, Riff has Skill Mastery with Notice, so I think a 19 to notice the chaos thats happening SHOULD be enough.

Anyway, Initiative away! 24!

[Raveled]

Blue Jay

Move Action: Acrobatic Bluff. Skill Mastery makes it 25, loses 1 because I used it before so 24.

Free Action: Switching AP to Drain Fort arrow.

Standard Attack: Arrow'd! Blue Jay's ranged attack check w/ +5 Power Attack, vs Paris's Def. DC 20 Fort (1d20+10=12) Rassum, frassum.

[Ari]

Round 3:

Riff: Unharmed, 2HP

Pawn: Bruise(x1)-GM

Blue Jay: Unharmed, 2HP

Riff is up!

[Cubist]

Jubatus is currently chatting with Constance. His next move: Run back to the festival grounds and confirm Riff's location. While he's there, give all the amps and cables a cursory examination, just in case Manderley replaced his hypersound-emitting pellets. If the missing pellets stayed missing (and there's no signs of fresh tampering), run back to Constance and continue chatting with her. Otherwise… well, that depends on what Jube finds. Not sure what sort of roll is needed, if any?

[Ari]

Search/Notice, probably the latter.

[Cubist]

Jube's Notice check (1d20+9=18)… may or may not be sufficient to detect any actual tampering. C'est la vie.

[Ari]

He doesn't see anything untoward with the wiring or stage equipment.

[Darksider42]

Sorry for the delay.

ANYWAY! Riff makes a move action (Flying!) and blasts Pawn with the power of ROCK!

Roll result is...30! DC27 Toughness save to tank it!

[Ari]

DC27 TOU save: 24. A bruise!

Using Elongation to try and grapple Riff. Attack roll: 26. Grapple roll: 37. Hm.

[Darksider42]

Spending Hero Point. Instant Counter!

Power check required. 27. Get higher or the grapple is cancelled out

[Ari]

Elongation rank 2 cannot beat that. His arms fall briefly to pieces, and he spends the rest of the round putting them back together.

Blue Jay is up!

[Raveled]

Blue Jay

Move Action: Acrobatic Bluff, -2 for previous uses. DC 23 to resist.

Free Action: Switch Array to Arrow Flurry.

Standard Action: Blue Jay's ranged attack check, vs Pawn's Def. DC 20 Tou + Autofire (1d20+15=20) Rolls!

[Ari]

Sense Motive roll vs. DC23: 5! Falt-Footed.

That hits, DC20+Autofire in this case making DC23 TOU save: 13! Staggered and Dazed!

Round 4:

Riff: Unharmed, 1HP

Pawn: Bruise(x2), Staggered, Dazed-GM

Blue Jay: Unharmed, 2HP
