TURN 2 – HEROES
LOCATION 1
Shineon – Attack Villain – 1, 2 = 3 (FAIL)
Shineon pursues Moroi, launching a punch at the rogue. Moroi titters as they dodge out of the way and effortlessly slice Shineon across the abdomen; a wicked-looking cut that would hurt if it weren't blocked by the shimmering leotard the magical girl wore.
(Miss)
(0 Damage to Shineon (Reduced from 1 by Tough))
(+1 EXP to Shineon)
Kekkai-Chan – Defensive Barrier
Kekkai-Chan scrambles to a safe spot, away from the melee and the swords and the possibility of dying. She hides behind the entranceway of one of the stores and peeks around nervously, then inhales and brings both of her hands to her temples. There's a soft thrumming noise as she summons her psychic power around Fenrir, her irises glowing bright pink as she focuses.
(Defensive Barrier Engaged on Fenrir)
(1 Stress to Kekkai-Chan)
Fenrir – Savage Wolf Fury – 4, 4, 4, -1, +1 = 8 (FLAWED SUCCESS)
Fenrir, meanwhile, is crouched with a hand covering his wounded chest. There's an audible 'lub-dub' of a heartbeat as Fenrir's veins begin to stand out, pulsing with blue light. His body tenses, his teeth lengthening and his claws leaving narrow furrows in the floor. He suddenly snaps into a standing position, his eyes glowing solid blue before he launches himself toward Moroi.
The rogue turns and stabs at Fenrir… only for their dagger to be intercepted by a bright pink hexagonal barrier.
Moroi looks up at Fenrir. "…Nice doggy?"
And then Fenrir slaps Moroi so hard they are knocked into the air, ass-over-teakettle. The werewolf lets out a blood-chilling howl of rage and hunger.
(3 Damage to Moroi)
(0 Damage to Fenrir (Reduced from 1 by Defensive Barrier))
Gunleon – Move
Gunleon, seeing that things seem to be handled down here, races towards the stairs leading to the upper floors. He easily takes them two at a time thanks to his armored suit, then suddenly finds himself obstructed at the top by a phalanx of Silhouettes.
"Oh for fuck's sake," he says as he readies his guns.
Strike Team – Rescue – 5, 2 = 7 (FLAWED SUCCESS)
The Strike Team fall back and focus on pulling the civilians out of harm's way. Like Pleiades, their efforts are hampered by the continual pressure the Silhouettes are applying. Still, they do make some headway.
(Civilians Rescued! 1 of 3 at this Location.)
LOCATION 2
Pleiades – Help Civilians – 3, 1 = 4 (FAIL)
Pleiades is thoroughly overwhelmed by the Silhouettes, who seem fully intent on keeping her away from the civilians. For minions, they're frustratingly competent.
(Nothing Happens)
(+1 EXP to Pleiades)
ENEMY ACTION!
VILLAIN
Moroi hisses and hops to their feet, looking at the mess that Fenrir's claws have made of their very fancy clothes. Moroi does not, however, immediately engage Fenrir. "Not a very good doggy, then. Well, let's see if you lot can keep up."
With a flap of his cape, Moroi pirouettes and vanishes into his own shadow…
…only to suddenly spring up from Pleiades' shadow instead! The phantom thief has little to no time to react as Moroi draws a second dagger with his free hand and rakes it across her back. There's an ominous crackle as Pleiades' eyes go wide and she staggers forwards, her hands going to her head.
(2 Damage to Pleiades, First Band Broken. Status Downgraded to Staggered.)
(1 Stress to Pleiades)
MINIONS – SILHOUETTES (LOCATION 1)
The Silhouettes ready their blades and continue pressuring the Strike Team, fully intending to halt any progress they may try to make.
(1 Damage to Strike Team)
MINIONS – SILHOUETTES (LOCATION 2)
The Silhouettes upstairs, meanwhile, home in around their master and lash out at Pleiades. The ones at the front of the stairs, meanwhile, slash at Gunleon but find their swords useless against his armor.
(1 Damage to Pleiades)
(0 Damage to Gunleon (Reduced from 1 by TOUGH))
MINIONS – SHADOW CRYSTALS (LOCATION 1)
There's a faint shimmer of blue light from the Shadow Crystals, and suddenly the wounds on the Silhouettes slowly close a bit more.
(+1 Health to Silhouettes)
