Did not realize that.  I'll save it for when trying to break physics, I guess.


Roll back away from him and spring up to a combat stance!

speed vs speed

3+1 vs 2

You do a fancy little backwards flip/roll and pop up back on your feet a good 10 feet back, your weapon held out in front of you. Ivan scowls.

"Come little man. I must break you."


What exactly is the win condition? Can't calculate the odds until I know that.
Knock out, death or giving up.  Whichever comes first.

Is it that time already? Geez. I'd get mad my alarm clock didn't go off it it hadn't collapsed into a pile of grayish, zero energy molecular flotsam.

"Let's dance, big guy."

Flip in and out of traffic on the lane closest to Ivan, in an attempt to cause cars to swerve to avoid me and into him.  3 Ki because that's pretty precise jumping.

I'm placing my bets on piecewise.

Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.

Well, as GM, I'd say Piecewise probably has an advantage.
1:3 on Toaster victory, 1:2 on PW victory, 1:4 on tie.

Ivan reflex:0 Fuck
Systar reflex:2

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Systar dances through traffic, leaping about, backflipping onto the hoods of speeding cars and then casually leaping off and landing in a handstand on the trunk of another car, and generally terrifying motorists. They swerve in all directions, most away from the wall and Ivan, but one finally does take a hard right straight toward the russian.

Ivan sees the car coming, sighs, and plants his feet firmly against the concrete. He catches the hood of the car in outstretched arms, the metal crushing as he digs his fingers into it. He then proceeds to lift the car straight into the air, spin around once like an Olympic shotputter,  and hurls the vehicle right back at you.

I came in hoping that PW was fighting an actual toaster. I have never been more thoroughly disappointed in my life.

If we're planning to participate in this non-existent hypothetical game, maybe it's better to bet ki rather than tokens. You know, so that we have something valuable to lose or gain.

Bet: 10 ki on Toaster.

Betting no tokens because I have none. Crap.

Actually in the finished thing, you're gonna have money. You can get money from winning fights and you can use it to get better gear and to train up skills and stats. So you could bet on the fights, and then use that money to make yourself better, effectively letting you level up while other people are fighting. Yay gambling.
