((Ah, for some reason I though Chiron was a combat unit as well. Probably due to the tendency for cases such as these to result in a situation where there is only one healing specialist.

Well, there are the fans... but that point still does stand, considering that not even Andromalius would do that without a good reason.

On top of their normal multiplier, right? 450÷(7x4)≈16.07 550÷(7x4)≈19.64 That should be fine as long as she doesn't try using it on another player-controlled character again. Assuming of course, that enemies that aren't cannon fodder but aren't too important have somewhere between 17 and 20 in the stat to resist.))

((Bleh. I'm considering giving Anima the ability to shoot some energy blasts and to mechanise the Summon Seals, allowing her to seal an enemy to summon it as she wishes.))

((How do we prevent psycho!Ashley from killing other player characters? Even with a 4x additional multiplier, most characters would have insufficient stats. Excluding Demons Run (can't enter void) and Silica (soul is not in body) of course.

How effective would summon seals be anyway? Also, how spammable are they?))

[To: Richard] <Hmm... do you think the enchanter might try and blend in with one of the inevitable crowd of fans?>

((Well;

Richard (magical invuln for one attack; only Laevateinn (multiple strikes), Obliteration (multiple strikes), superpowers (not magical/Persona based), and psionics can get through.)

Anima (aformentioned summon sealing; if Anima gets her seal off, even if it fails, the target's stunned for 1d6 turns.)

Also, Abraxas. Who happens to ALSO manipulate void. And is probably much stronger than Ashley. If not countering it, he can probably cancel it, given enough magical boost, or hell, even if Anima is targeted. THEN he has, by the contract, and Anima being an immortal soul who can't explicitly 'die' (if the attack hits Anima, MARIA dies instead) short of Ciro doing something about it, a good reason to return the favour to Ashley.

Which is to say, Obliterating her, or sealing her connection to the void. His movelist is the attacks Anima normally allows him to perform; most other actions are either minor or OP enough that Anima needs to approve it.))

<Maybe.>

((Okay, good, just a bit concerned about that considering if Arthur wasn't cautious enough to prepare reactive armor, the roll he would have had to have made to prevent that would still have fallen into 50% chance of success which in my opinion was rather ridiculous considering that he is technically a teacher and half his stat points were placed in the resistance stat.))

[To: Richard] <Another issue is the use of a diversion, if the enchanter enchants random people and have them act as false alarms, they might sow distrust of the surveillance equipment... we still need a unit to detect consumable spiking or sabotage with enchantments for them to act as an infection vector... finally, we need to figure out whether or not the current enchantments allow remote application of additional enchantments.>

<Or detect the magic signature used, and use your UAV to track it. We'll be hot on it's trail.>

((Also, I'd assume Ciro would be able to shield someone simply by contact.

I just realized: Abraxas was pretty much the perfect counter to any void ability before Ciro even came around, by dint of being an immensely powerful void manipulator himself.

Precognition wins the day again.))

<Perhaps, however, a UAV is hardly something that is inconspicuous... how would we track the signature anyway?>

<We'll need something to temporarily disable enchantments then. As for neutralizing them, a charged shot to the sternum would be the safest option, either it explodes in their chest, their heart, or their lungs... Entry wound aperture will be small with no exit wound.>

You really can both sig it.
But... That would break the laws of sigging! We can't have everyone running around with the same quotes. IT MAKES THEM UNFUNNY FASTER!
