((Well, I just wasn't sure what weapon he was using.))

"I don't care much for the subject nowadays. Maybe back in my early days, I would."
The man's torso stretches, becoming taller, and arms sprouting out of the sides and back of his body.
The man has entered his hundred-handed-one form.

PLAYER TURN
Kyle attacks
[DEX: 23+21] vs [DEX: 43+30]
The hudred-handed-one dodges!

Alice shoots lightning at him!
[DEX: 81+20] vs [DEX:76+30] (Almost, Alice...)
The hundred-handed-one catches the lightning bolt, now wielding it.

HK-47 attacks after the dodge!
[DEX: 83+7] vs [DEX: 34+30]
Damage: 20!


ENEMY TURN:
The hundred-handed-one stands in a countering stance, the lighting bolt fizzling in his hand

HP: 235/255

((the dude just *catches* ligthning like that? whuuuuuuuuut? (how can Alice throw lightning anyway?)))

"Target aquired. Full ignition. Initiating aerial combat manouver 12-Alpha: Shooting star."

ICARUS, without even slowing down her flight on the way here, accelerates even further, to just below sub-sonic levels (50 Mana spend on extreme acceleration, Dex thus increased by 25 for this turn), charging her blade to metal severing frequencies (50 more mana spend on increasing strength by 25 for this attack), for a massive fly-by attack. You could say she is taking the medieval cavalry charge to modern levels. This better not miss, as the Mana costs involved are crazy.

((Greek myth stuff. In the war of the Gods vs the Titans, some hundred-handed-ones were wielding lightning bolts (later collected by the Cyclopes to form Zeus's lightning bolt).))

((Whoops. Sorry about that. Not something that you'd think would come up...

On the other hand it should be easy to talk the guy down, I think...))

"To be fair I could care less of your wishes while you prevent me finding my friend. I'm... actually, I don't give two shits if you understand."

Kyle says as he gets in a stance to block with his plasma thrower.

((Note, if you want to introduce new game mechanics, don't do as Rag and just throw them at players without any kind of testing or discussing etc. I mean, I'm just going purely off stats, instead of declaring ICARUS to be in her 750mph stance. I dare say he either tries to dodge and dodges, or he tries to counter attack and still has 500 kg of robot charging at him with a blade that is designed to cut thanks. The bullshit-o-meter is already rather high by the triple-lightning-"coincidence".))

edit:((additional bullshit-o-meter, dodging multiple attacks does not give the dude a dex penalty. In the "almost Alice" part of the turn, that penalty would have made a crucial difference. GWG rolled D50s and decreased dex by 5 per additional dodge, which would put them at equal rolls, which at the least would make it so that he *only* dodges, instead of catching the lightning (which I dare say, should take an extra dex roll. Dodging lightning is one think, catching it something else entirely, both at the same time is very difficult), though with d100s, it used to be -10 per additional attack. Usualy it's a non issue, but when the difference between two rolls is just 5, it decides the entire flow of the battle))

((Well, it doesn't do any stat altering. He's just going to be able to counter the first physical attack that he is able to, which doesn't include ICARUS's flying into him at 750mph. And it also gets cancelled if said physical attack hits him.

Also, I would do that if it wasn't ONLY him against the group. I have to give him some sort of chance to even live.))
