    Ferrokinesis. Oh come on that's not even--well, at least that's only the sword, not the armor. Unless it's the broad "metal-kinesis" and not the narrow "iron-kinesis".

    Thanks. Looks like the vote tally was moved. I'm not complaining. Just suprised.

    Anyway, If someone could please roll for Broadsword, I'd appreciate it.
     
    Rolling.

    Edit: That is a pass since our Broadsword is 14.

    Every time I see Broadsword, I keep thinking the Jethro Tull song.

    Thank you. Now it's time for me to roll.

    Edit, I'd also appreciate someone roll a 6d-1 for Broadsword damage. There will be a -10 for the energy barrier that Cutter has, but let's just focus on the base damage for now

    Rolling.

    So 27 minus 1 followed by another minus 10 means we do 16 damage right?

    Rolling extra effort is very important here to avoid getting knocked out so...

    Good news, you'd have just been knocked to the ground, not KOed. Perks of being the PC and super tough.

    Bad news, you'd need to spend your next turn getting up and keeping Cutter from killing you..

    Now, I'm not great at this system, but didn't Cutter take, like, more damage than he has HP, to the point that he's probably in negatives? 10 (barrier) + 12 (HP) - 26 (damage) = -4? I mean, I know we're in the Supers genre, and I see he also has some degree of super strength, but, like, why have HP if you can borderline-ignore going into negatives to the tune of a third of your max HP?

    He, as well as you, do get debuffs for being in the negatives, even though you both passed your constitution checks. You are at half speed and dodge, and he won't be able to use some of the more acrobatic moves I had planned for him in this fight. Aside from having to roll CON to stay on your feet/conscious. You'll also drain FP faster until you get back in the positives.

    Also, I don't know if I said this before, but I feel I should also make note of this here. If you, or anyone with super strength/toughness take your HP in negative damage, -20 in your case, you have to make a consciousness check. Hit it again, then you make a death check. Do it again, and you die. If a normal person takes their HP in negative damage, they make a death check. If they do it again, they die.
