Green Sun, Black Shadows (CG/Exalted)

Reader mode
Since he has Raging Behemoth Charge, really not fast enough.

What I really want to know is how Akio activated those charms. It wasn't his turn and I don't think they're reflexive?
Edit: Correction, Infernal Monster Form isn't reflexive. Point still stands. Also, I hope Milly is wise enough to realise influencing a beserker won't work.

So, how quickly can we run?

(Shamefully, i think the answer is: Not fast enough)

Our Dashing speed, before wound penalties, is 9 yards/tick. His currently is 8 yards/tick. However, if he decides to activate Raging Behemoth Charge he adds his MA rating to his move and Dash speeds- meaning 13 yards/tick Dashes that carry a zero DV penalty.
 
Hmm.... He took 4 bashing from our attack. He doesn't have Hardened Devil Body, and he has no Perfect Defenses.

Retribution Will Follow doesn't prevent him from falling Unconcious from excessive Bashing Damage, but if he activates By Pain Reforged he will resist unconsciousness and Wound Penalties and Death from Bashing and Lethal damage.

Which if we're trying to stay non lethal with our Taser here means that he'll basically triple his total Health Levels.

We need to pull out our gun and shoot him in the chest. It probably will just leave him dying, but if he's in the infirmary then he's not fighting us.

This.

Fortunately, he doesn't seem to have a lot of soak, so one or two shots with our trusty hellcaster should be enough.

A two shots flurry using DHO to ensure a hit is probably the best bet.

He has 7B/4L soak, so any decent hit will leave a mark.
 
Akio roars as he hulks out. Everyone backs away in fear, but Lelouche stood.

lelouche: "I don't have time for this"

*lelouche whips out his hell caster from his hoister and shoots like Indiana Jones.

Hmmm, I was kind of thinking we'd have rolled for Performance here as well to see if he might believe our charade - it was the entire basis of the plan.

Yeah, I agree, the gun it is.

Milly will probably try to hit him with her attack, given he hasn't fallen for our charade. Hopefully it'll do some damage.

@Alexander89 - How long does it take the Anuhles to make a web using Calculated Order of Immediate Action?

Hopefully she won't try to go for Mental Influence. I think fluff-wise, she'd be smart enough not to try that on a beserker.

First you attacked him and then did the social attack: that counts as flurry. Akio went into Berserker Anger in the middle.

You can control her if you want.

It's a Simple Action, so Five ticks.

Akio activates both "Retribution Will Follow" and "Infernal Monster Form". He ignores Lelouch's words at unacceptable orders.

It's MIlly's turn.

I've just checked, and Infernal Monster Form is simple. Unless I've misunderstood, simple charms can't be used reflexively?

Also, I'm okay with you controlling Milly to speed things up, so long as it takes into account what we've already noted in character as being ineffective (ie. no Mental Influence)

Actually, hold on, we should stunt for Milly. Her attack does significantly better with a Stunt, and won't even pierce his Hardness rating without one.

Yes, and it wasn't even his turn so he can't perform a simple action. From a story telling perspective, he can try but the rules says he wouldn't success. Or if allowed, Milly would attack and knock him around to interrupt him.

Ok, someone who understands the rules better and/or has time to look it up, I want to have Milly use Firmament-Shaking Cataclysm to enhance her attack. I would use one of these two effects, but I'm not sure if the first would be applicable given what Akio has activated. If it is applicable, which do you think we should use? I'm inclined towards the latter, but the former might be good as well.

Blinding Rainbow: Lashing ribbons of prismatic light emanate from the Infernal's presence, too bright to behold. If the attack successfully hits, the target must succeed on a (Wits + Dodge) roll to avert his eyes or be dazed, suffering a -2 external penalty on all non-reflexive actions until his DV next refreshes, as a Crippling effect. If he succeeds on the roll, he suffers only a -2 internal penalty.

Lightning Scourge: Shimmering lightning arcs from the Infernal's fingers to her victim. Rather than ignoring four points of soak from her target's armor, the Infernal ignores eight points of soak.
 
No wait, Infernal Monster Form becomes reflexive when Ritribution Will Follow is active.

EDIT: NVM. I think that was one of the unofficial Infernal Monster Expansions.

Fair point.

(Depending on whether IFM actually can be used here I guess...)


Milly watched as the crazed man's skin rippled and stretched, leaving him monstrous but still vaguely humanoid. Rather than being intimidated by the change, an eager expression spread across her face and she began to laugh.
"Of course! That's why you want to fight vampires! You're a monster too-a Frankenstein Monster! Of course.....everybody knows that Frankensteins need lightning, right?"
A wide smile spreading across her face, the armoured girl reached up to the sky-and with a flash, lightning reached back.

Rough idea for a stunt.

Milky jumps on top of one of the spiders and uses him like a spring board to jump even higher. In mid air, she twirls and fires Arcs of lighting like a disco ball.

You are right, sorry I forgot. Akio doesnt use Infernal Monster Form.
