Turn 14

( I took a break from the forums for a bit, should be back on regular schedule. Beirus, haven't done your character yet but feel free to post an action next turn. )

Look around. Flex. Search for a steel chair.

You look around your surroundings, flexing all the while. PERCEPTION: [2 + 1(wisdom)] = 3
Unfortunately, there are no steel chairs in the vicinity. On the bright side, you see a couple figures in CQC; looks like fun!

That rocket launcher is mine now.

You absorb the rocket launcher. +Size [Small, 20/100], +Spell [Force Bubble (4, abjuration)]
You feel the magic enter your being. It's a difficult spell (as most Old Earth magic is), but even if you fail you'll probably be able to pull off a weaker version of it.

Grab his weapon and finish him off.

As he feels his wound, you grab his gun and attempt to tear it from his grasp. STRENGTH: [1] = CRIT FAIL VS [5 - 1(injury)] = 4
He pushes you off, and tries to get in firing position. MANEUVER: [1] = CRIT FAIL VS [9 + 2(dexterity)] = CRIT SUCCESS
Despite his attempts to level his weapon at you, you keep tapping the weapon this way or that, or getting too close for him to lower the gun. Before long, you've bullied him against a wall.

AWW YEAH! Absorb the bodies! All of them!

What a feast! You dig in to a delicious meal. ABSORPTION: [9 + 1(absorption)] = CRIT SUCCESS
Within half a minute, all the dead or unconscious have been consumed. You turn your attention to the two remaining figures; one's of no interest (metal), while the other is a tasty meatbag.

Continue taking cover.

You and Heldentenor continue taking cover from the robot, who's opened fire on the table you're ducking behind. Bullets whiz by your head, and after about fifteen seconds they stop.

Travel down the air shaft with care, leaving the now certainly powerless cleaner robot behind.

( The battery gave you 30 EU. )

You leave your powerless comrade behind, traveling through the ventilation system carefully. After about a minute of this, you reach an opening; you can also see one a little bit further down.

Race: Yellow Slime. Size Varies, Organic. Absorption, Acid Trail, Shapeshift, Acid Gush. +Toughness, -Speed.
Gender: N/A.
Age: 2
Stats: +2 Toughness, +2 Wisdom, +1 Strength, +1 Speed, -1 Dexterity, -2 Knowledge.
Skills: +1 Absorption [/slime], +1 Shapeshifting [/slime].
Current Size: Small.
Absorption: Currently up to hardness: wood [up to one size category smaller].
Traits/Flaws: Being a slime, Blorn is fairly slow. He does leave a trail of acid wherever he goes though.

Crime: Absorbing several small villages, attempting to absorb largely populated towns.
Bio: Blorn was created by a mad scientist, who, in the last days of his life, wished to create something he could call his offspring. So, he created Blorn, a slime, made of acid. Blorn, not having any special feelings toward his "father", decided he wasnt fed enough. After the digestion of flesh and bones, Blorn began to wander the wild. He ate anything and everything in his path, making him very large. At one point in his lifetime, he became large enough to engulf small houses, which he did with glee. Then, he ate villages. It was about this time that he was picked up by the Multiverse Officials. They managed to get his mass down to a more reasonable size, and then sent him to the Aetherworld Prison.

Turn 15

[ Alright, finished up with finals. Go ahead, Moonlit; you appear in the same room everyone else did. Feel free to post actions; I'll do yours and Beirus' sheet probably in the next turn. ]

Charge them and do a double clothesline on them.

Get a firm grip on the gun, and kick his chest.

((Did I get bigger that last round?))

ABSORB THE MEATBAG! JUMP ONTO HIM WITH ALL THE FORCE I CAN MUSTER!

Mangler Initiative: [10 - 1(speed)] = 9
Wraith Initiative: [9 + 1(speed)] = 10
Blorn Initative: [7 + 1(speed)] = 8
Guard Initative: [10] = 10

Wraith and the surviving guard struggle over the gun.. STRENGTH: [4] = 4 VS [9 - 1(injury) - 1(positioning) = 7
...but the guard manages to tear it from the robot's grasp. Wraith, losing control of the gun, goes to kick him in the chest. UNARMED: [4 + 2(dexterity)] = 6 VS [5 - 1(position)] = 4
Wraith manages to kick the guard in the gut... [1] = 1 VS [5] = 5
...but fails to get enough force behind the attack to do any significant damage. The guard grunts, but seems fine.

The Mighty Mangler charges into battle, and attempts to clothesline the two combatants! SPEED: [2 - 1(speed)], UNARMED: [4 + 2(wrestling) + 1(dexterity)] = 7 VS Wraith: [5 + 2(slow) - 1(distracted) + 1(speed)] = 7; Guard: [3 + 2(slow) - 1(distracted) - 1(positioning) - 1(injury)] = 2
Mangler manages to slam his left arm into the guard, but barely clips the robot, who jumps back defensively. STRENGTH: [10 + 1(strength)] = OVERSHOT; ENDURANCE: [(W:3)(G:3)]
The heel of Mangler's hand crashes into the back of the guard's neck, breaking it and killing him instantly. Wraith receives a damaging blow to his right shoulder, damaging the circuitry. Mangler feels a sharp pain go through his left hand; he appears to have damaged it when he broke the guard's neck.
( Mangler: Injury [left hand, moderate] ) ( Wraith: Injury [right shoulder, moderate] )

Blorn takes advantage of the distraction to jump on the guard's body as it falls to the ground limply. ABSORPTION: [7 + 1(absorption) + 1(size)] = 9
The man's corpse is quickly absorbed by the ravenous slime creature. Blorn is aware of the Mighty Mangler's presence - another potential meal!
( The funny thing is I actually put the size in last turn, but then erased it as I was planning to put it into the XP counter. You are now Large [10/100]. )

Go looking for more batteries.

You go looking for more M.Batteries, or other potential fuel sources. LOOTING: [1 + 1(wisdom)] = CRIT FAIL
Not only do you manage to fail to find any batteries, you end up where you were a few minutes ago! There's currently a fight going on, but you haven't yet made out specifics.

Ready my rifle, and prepare to shoot.

Aadhaya readies her weapon and lines up a shot on the robot. PERCEPTION: [7 + 1(wisdom)] = 8
It has turned away from you, and is aiming its weapons at your companion. You take the chance to fire a shot at it! RIFLE: [5] = 5 VS DODGE: [6 - 2(difficulty) - 1(distracted)] = 3
The shot lands on its right cannon, and appears to damage it. It turns to you, forcing you to take cover once again behind the table once again. (-2 EU/laser rifle)

Look around for anything useful, like a weapon. Or a bigger weapon. Or armor.

You look around for any useful supplies. LOOTING: [3 - 3(heavily looted room)] = 0
Failing to find any gear, you find yourself lost in a maze of crates. If only they held something of use.

Go to the more distant opening and peer through it.

You go to the opening and peer through it. PERCEPTION: [3 + 1(wisdom)] = 4
It appears to be a lab of some sort. There's a combat robot a few meters from the opening, facing away from you. The sound of a laser rifle can be heard from further inside the room, but you're unsure of the specifics surrounding it and the potential combat brewing from within. There DO appear to be some useful scientific supplies; you don't see anything directly robotics-related.
