Turn 123
I tell the Avengers that it would be best to pull back, for the moment, as we are heavily outnumbered. I then sheath myself in fire, like the Torch did and use my good arm to re-create the fire dragon. This time I tell it to engulf the fortress and all of my former comrades, though if it cannot then Lucien and his demon are the primary targets.
(4+1=5) You fly up to Iron Man, remembering that he is the commander of the Avengers, and tell him that retreating would be a good idea, because then you can return in greater numbers. It is hard to say what his reaction is, since his face is covered and he doesn't say anything, but you think he will at least take it into consideration, in the meantime you intend to attack your old companions though. Fire starts burning on every square inch of your body, and with your healthy arm you form a similar fire dragon to the one that you created before, but this one is headed straight for the fortress.
(3) You would have to be a bumbling idiot to miss such a large target, but the shield is still in the way, so you pour more power into it, trying to force your attack through it,
(2) and after a bit of work the shield falters, the lightning enchantment being destroyed, and leaving the fortress open to your attack.
(3-1=2) The fiery apparition starts coiling around the fortress before exploding into a fireball, causing quite a bit of damage to the fortress.
(...) Most of the nefarious association's members manage to get out of the way of the fire, but Xen gets engulfed by it,
(3-1=2) his flesh getting partially burnt off, revealing the bone beneath, Lucien cannot get out of the way in time either,
(3-1+1=3) but thanks to his shield he gets away with a few singed hairs.
Fine, if her head isn't going to co-operate then I will need to try something else. I build a backup brain and pseudo-skull near Sue's stomach, and try to calm her down.
(6) You are still quite angered by your recent failure, so when you get to work on making another brain for her you put a little too much power into it,
(3) and she starts screaming and trashing about as a large lump grows on her stomach. After you are done she just sits there for a while, and then looks at you confusedly, like she doesn't know who you are, but then she gets angry again and tries to catch you, and then she again looks confused. You suspect that you may have accidentally made her schizophrenic.
I overload Reaper's mind with non-sense and mental feedback.
(5+1=6) You are quite angered by Reaper's betrayal, and so decide to target him with a mental attack of epic magnitude, by channeling the combined thoughts of all the group's members right into his mind. First you establish a two way connection to him,
(4) and push aside the stream of thoughts from his traitorous mind. You then reach out to connect the entire group to you, trying to channel all of their thoughts into his mind,
(4) even though a literal storm surge of thought flood your mind you manage to keep them at bay, and then you unleash them into the connection you have with Reaper.
(4-1=3) But despite lacking experience in such matters he somehow manages to keep mostly calm, seemingly just getting a little confused.
Wake up
(1) A nagging voice in the back of your head tells you to wake up, but you are too busy with dreams of wealth and power to care about it at the moment.
I rip the iron in the blood of every enemy present out of their bodies. The end.
(2+1+1-1=3) You focus on all the foes, trying as hard as you can to rip the iron out of their blood,
(...) Reaper is too busy trying to fight off the mental assault to get out of your magnetic field,
(3-1=2) but even so he manages to keep enough iron in his body to prevent negative effects, your powers still cannot affect Iron Man, and you suspect that he has added an anti-magnetic defense to his armor, Spider man is too nimble to be fully caught by your attack,
(4) and the few parts of him that were still in its way aren't adversely affected, Quicksilver is just too fast to be fully caught by your attack, and Bullseye is wise enough to hide when he sees you preparing something.
Shoot Reaper!
(3) You fire off a few shots towards Reaper,
(6) striking his already damaged shoulder,
(5) but not doing any damage. He must be outside the effective lethal range of your rifle.
Fire my pistol at the traitorous Reaper
(4) You aim your gun carefully, and slowly squeeze the trigger just like you taught yourself, letting a bullet fly up towards him,
(2) but your bullet sails past him, narrowly missing.
I'll search for a town, and try to find a store that sells maps.
(1) You run into the corn field, for some reason thinking that cutting through it will be the fastest way to a town, but the tall corn is blocking your view and making you lose your sense of direction, so you just end up going in circles.
I throw a grenade at Reaper, if this doesnt work I use TK to merge his atoms into the ground.
(6-1-1=4) You manage to summon up all your strength to throw a grenade towards Reaper, and even use a bit of telekinesis to speed it up,
(2-2=1) but you miss widely, and the grenade sails away out of view.
(4) Despite your horrendous injuries you still manage to keep conscious and standing.
*Blades appear from out of nowhere and he throws them at Reaper (or Bullseye barring unforseen other stuff happening), taking cover in a pile of rubble and using the diversion to hide.*
(3) You pull out a knife and try to hit Reaper with it,
(4+1=5) and it flies true, striking him in the chest,
(2-1=1) and puncturing one of his lungs.
Enemy Actions:Try to regain her senses
(4) She spends some time trying to figure out what is going on, realizing that there is something wrong with her mind.
Attack Hades
(6) The glowing blue circle on his chest lights up brightly,
(2) but the energy beam fired from it just strikes the shield.
Knock out Blarney
(4) Seeing one of his enemies stray outside their protective shield he decides to attack,
(6-2+1=5) but Blarney just manages to get out of his way, and quickly scrambles to the other side of the tentacle field.
Ensnare Hades
(3) He shoots some web towards Hades,
(1) but it falls short of his intended target, landing harmlessly on the ground.
Shoot Hades
(5) He grabs a nearby glass splinter and throws it at Hades with great force,
(2+3=5) hitting him in the left shoulder,
(3-2=1) and slicing clean through both his armor and his flesh, severing the tendon and muscle and making his left arm nearly useless.
Allied/Neutral Actions:Buy meds
She finally manages to find a pharmacy, and goes inside to purchase medicine for the money she has, though the clerk seems a bit suspicious about her large purchase.
Reform body
(3) He still can't quite pull himself together.
Protect the master
(6) Seeing Reaper harm his master enrages him, and he leaps down from the wall and runs to the half-buried Chevrolet, and then proceeds to try and throw it at Reaper.
(1)But it only goes about ten feet into the air, and then crashes down again, right towards him,
(6) so he punches it with all his might,
(1) which crushes the front of it, and destroys the engine. It didn't land on him at least.
Get more stuff
(3) It needs to get some computers and other electronics to build more copies of itself, so it goes off on a rather unsuccessful hunt for such things.
Hide
(6) She isn't exactly a warrior, so she decides to hide until things cool down a little, and rush into the fortress.
