OOC: Front-Runner gets 3 panels due to his super speed.

Front-Runner will attempt to run towards the mayor and grab him before the blast reaches him. [Move+grab=1 panel]

Then run far enough away from the blast at top speed to avoid either of us, taking any damage from blast. [2nd panel]

Then, if he has time, he will create a whirlwind blast by spinning his hands to push the explosion away from the others. [3rd panel]

I don't^^ But wait?! You mean Hero points are added 'after' the multiplier?! That's insignificant!

Narrator Voice: You think? You needed a 20 and got an 18, wouldn't 2 Hero Points (not Hero Dice) go a long way right now? You got one from me already and if you spend 10 Hits right now you will get the other one.

Of course! You know i'd use my hero dice in such a situation without hesitation. A Life is at sake :D

But are you really sure that hero points are added 'after the multiplier'? After all , during character creation, 2 hero points are worth the rise of one stat, or the price of a minor power. Since the hero point pool is only refreshed every game session I think the hero point effect is quite poor compared to the investment.

Anyway, sure I'd take the 10 hits on trust!

From page 14 of the rulebook;
Any number of Hero Points can be spent from the pool in an issue to add an equal Result Bonus to any roll. So if a character fails a dice roll by 3, she can spend three of her Hero Points to turn the failure into a success!

Tiger-Girl is buried under a pile of rubble, and the Narrator says she needs a 30 Brawn check to get free. Tiger-Girl rolls a 27. With a roar, fighting back the pain, Tiger-Girl pushes herself, taking 30 damage to give her the +3 she needs to get out.
*, Hero's life is an hard one!

Ok, the expenditure is done!

OOC: Re-doing my action for page 1...

With Zero's warning echoing through the garage, I start looking around for the source of the danger. As the blast wave sweeps towards the mayor, I grit my teeth and try something I've never attempted before...

OOC: I'd like to use Kinetic Energy Mastery to reduce the power of the explosion and to redirect it away from the people, major structural elements, etc. I will use the Push rules to add one level (making it Mastery 5) at the cost of 10 Hits. [bash="Mastery Attempt"]5,1 = 322602466 [/bash]

Code: Select all

Hits:  100-10=90,  HD: 1,  HP: 6,  SB: 0
[bash="Priority for page 2 (if needed)"]2 = 60354928 [/bash]
