Chimera Ch3, Like Moths to a Flame

[Protheuz]

"That means probably not..." taking a deep breath Can I do it? I can't let this guys down. Lives are depending on this... On me... Again.

"This is what we'll do. I'll teleport there, to beneath that large table with Jason. The rest of you approaches the shack from both sides.
I'll try... I mean I'll make the shadows around the prisoners merge with them, and then I'll teleport them away to here. After that, you'll capture or finish those guys. Caught by surprise, without the tactical superiority the hostages give, and between the four of you they'll have little chance but surrender.
What do you say?"

OCC:
What I'm proposing is Nycto using his versatile advantage to substitute Shadow mastery (5pts) by teleport 1(usable on others, arc 2) - 5pts also. The arc should be enough to touch the 3 guys.
He arrives in stealth, concentrates, in the end of the panel, these guys teleport.
Them it's bashing time.

"Sounds good to me!
You're sure you can do this? Previously you were not really taken with this idea.
If it doesn't work instantly they'll riddle you with bullets...Doubtlessly without any success but hostages won't enjoy the shootout...not one bit..."

[Protheuz]

"This is a last call plan. I have to say it could fail... But I don't see any better.
So if you ask me if I'm sure, due to alternatives, Yes I am. I must be." Answers Nycto "Remember attack only after the prisoners are gone."

Nycto: Sounds good to me! When you do teleport, make a stealth check. If the mobsters don't spot you, you'll 'port out the next round with the hostages.

Fenris: You make it to the warehouse and swing yourself up effortlessly and quietly onto the roof. You stalk over to the front where the four armed guards are and wait, listening to their mindless chatter.

As you crouch there like a great fuzzy gargoyle, you hear something in the distance, like a high-pitched buzzing. It comes and goes, silent for a minute, then a quick buzz again for a few seconds. It sounds like it's coming from high above you, a mile or more? like a plane would, but it doesn't seem to be changing positions.

Everyone else: When you're ready, each of you make a stealth check to approach the building. Assume Javi's small band of "friends" arrive at your hiding place, lightly armed and nervous as *. They seem rather pleased to learn they aren't storming the building, though they try to hide it with some cheap bravado.

"If anybody hasn't anything more to say, Let's do it."
says Nycto as his body starts to meld into the shadows.

(Well, except for the front door and back door , is there any other entrance? I wouldn't mind super jump through one of the 'usual roof's windows'. (A good comic book cliché). If that's possible, consider that's my move)


(Ps:Just out of interest, Protheuz what's this dice Mod 2?)

[Protheuz]

(Stealth for Nycto is: 2 for agility +1 skill =(2d6+2 (from speciallity)) x3 - it was what it was used (the +5 was from the double)

(Speciality? Aren't you supposed to roll twice and take the best roll instead?I guess that's an alternate/house rule)

That 'will' be my move when the attack begins

[Saker]

Fenris steathily creeps to the door between the two windows of the back loading dock avoiding the windows. He gets a sturdy hand-hold on the door and readies to rip it open when he hears a 'ruckus' inside. So much for his Batman-imitation that he was looking foward to.

He also tries to zero-in on the 'helicopter or drone' hovering above to notice anything else.

"Okay," Javier agrees once he finishes the phone call. "Sounds like a plan.

"Nycto, you'll need to give us some kinda signal once you've unassed the AO with the hostages. I'll unload a flash-bang to disorient them and the rest of you guys hit 'em with extreme force. The key is to keep them disorganized so that they can't concentrate fire on any one of us."

He turns to encompass the whole group as he speaks, "Our primary goal here is to rescue the prisoners, secondary is to neutralize the threat. No killing unless absolutely necessary. We want to give a message, not start a gang war. Got it?

"And someone let Fenris know the plan so that he doesn't jump in too early."

Javier's Stealth roll:

[Boost]

Jason melds in with the shadows and follows Nycto in, coming in from the side opposite of the door that Fenris now occupies.

Page 1 This is my understanding of the order of events; if something's off, let me know! Also, for those of you with the same priority, I'm going to randomly assign you an order (there's two of you who go on 4, two on 2).

1) Fenris is waiting on the roof by the back door, waiting for the action to start.
2) Nycto teleports under the table (Stealth 57)
3) Overdrive approaches the warehouse (Stealth 42)
4) Jason approaches the warehouse (Stealth 20)
4) Javi approaches the warehouse (Stealth 14)

Everyone makes it into place, ready to assault the warehouse. Nycto slips from the shadows and waits a moment to see if he or his (teammates?) are noticed. When the sound of automatic fire fails to ring out, he reaches out with the shadows, grabbing the three bound men, then slips out with them...

Ok, where is everyone going? Where is Nycto teleporting the hostages to?

Order of Action:
1) Nycto ports away with hostages.
2) Fenris comes through the back door.
3) Jason
4) Overdrive
5) Javi
6) Nycto can teleport back to the warehouse, but would not be able to otherwise act again this round.
7) Mobsters react

[Dustland]

Fenris, hearing the commotion inside, drops to the platform, digs his claws into the heavy wooden door and rips it off it's hinges!

Diving into the room, he swings at the first startled mobster, landing a solid blow with the door, sending the mobster sprawling to the ground. Though wounded and shocked, the mobster is not out of the fight!

I rolled the mobster's defense after the fact, my bad. He still got hit though!
